TWO RECEIVERS APPOINTED.
FOR SOUTHERN HOME BUILDING
AVI) LOAN ASSOCIATION.
Institution in Allnnta Which Oi<l
Builnrs* All the Way From Tno
to Virginia Receivership Was
A.rnutcd ill the l nIM States Cir
cnll Court by .Inilisr Pardee —The
Amount Involved 1 a in the -Nelgh
liorliooil of *1,000.000.
Atlanta, April 4.—Judge Don A. Pardee,
of the United States Circuit Court has ap
pointed Judge John T. Pendleton and Wil
liam H. Henderson receivers of the South
ern Home Building and Loan Association
of Atlanta.
The answer of the defendant associa
tion which was filed at the same time as
the bill, admits the allegations of the
plaintiff and states that the association
cannot longer continue a profitable busi
ness and to further continue would lie to
the disadvantage of the shareholders.
The complainants in the bill are: Mrs.
M. C. Alexander, a resident of Tennessee,
and owner of thirty-two shares of the as
sociation stock, with a value of $3,200; W.
S. Bradley of Virginia, owner of ten
shares stock, valued at $650, and A, T.
Spalding of Texas, owner of two shares,
valued at S2OO.
The principal cause of the liquidation of
the affairs of the corporation as stated
in the bill is excessive taxes, state, coun
ty and municipal, which, according to re
cent Supreme Court decisions, have been
assessed against the company, and the
numerous other decisions ln*>ther stares
than Georgia, which affect the business
of the concern, especially in Ihe way of
loans, many of which are adjudged us
urious.
. The proceedings were taken by mutual
consent lo end litigation, which has been
proceeding for some time, and it is ex
pected the receivers will close up the af
fairs of the concern at once. The amount
Involved is believed to be in the neighbor
hood of $1,000,000.
The company has many shareholders in
Ihe Southern states and its loans and other
transactions extend from Texas to Vir
ginia.
The closing of the affairs of the company
will affect vast interests In some locali
ties. The bill which has been filed will
he followed by others In the states where
the association operated and is likely that
the court, as soon as- the receivers begin
work, will appoint co-receivers for each
of the states where the corporation has
assets. The principal clause of the liquida
tion is the excessive taxes, state, county
and municipal, which, according to recent
Supreme Court decisions, have been as-
Eessed against the company.
DEATH OF MR. W. B. DO WE.
Wat the hast of the Former State
Convict Lessees.
Atlanta, April 4.—Mr. W. B. Lowe died
In this city this afternoon. He was the
last of the original lessees of the state
convicts under the twenty-year lease that
expired with the inauguration of the pres
ent convict system. Among the other
lessees were the late Gov. Brown, Ben
Lockett and others, all of whom are now
dead.
The lessees then contracted to take all
the convicts, many or few, for $25,000 per
year. During the first year of the lease
the lessees had only about 450 convicts,
but it was nearly 2,000 during the last
year. Under the old lease the state re
ceived $9 per head per year for her con
victs, while under the present manage
ment she gets SIOO per head.
Mr. Lowe was perhaps personally known
to almost every legislator during the ten
ure of the twenty years' lease, as he was
quite often put upon the rack for some
Infraction of the rules governing the
keeping of the convicts or permitting his
subordinates to make these infractions.
During Gov. Gordon’s administraUon the
lessees were fined each $5,000 forpermit
ting cruelties by guards' to the convicts.
Mr. Lowe is regarded as a very wealthy
man.
THEY WANT TO HE DOCTORS.
3Yany Young Men Before the Medi
cal Examining;' Board.
Atlanta, April 4. —There was an army
of young men who wanted to become full
fledged doctors to greet the State Board
of Medical Examiners when they conven
ed in this city this morning. Each of
the members of the board prepared the
examination questions on one of the sub
jects constituting the examination. The
subjects of the examinations are as fol
lows: Materia medica and therapeutics,
by Dr. Jelks; chemistry, by Dr. Holmes;
gynecology, by Dr. Holmes; surgery, by
Dr. Ridley; anatomy, by Dr. Kidley;
physiology, by Dr. Bailey; obstetrics, by
Dr. Bailey; practice, by Dr. Smith.
There were several applicants from
other states. One of the requirements
for the license is that the applicant must
be a graduate of some medical college
recognized under the statute governing
the granting of state licenses. The exam
ination to-day was one of the most diffi
cult the board has prepared in some time
and places the standard of physicians in
the state on a high plane.

Cood Blood Medicine.
“ I became convinced of the merit
of Hood’s Sarsaparilla when I took it
myself as a blood purifier. So, when
my husband had boils and carbuncles I
urged him to take Hood’s and the re
sult was that when he had used hut
one bottle the boils had nearly all dis
appeared. He continued the use of
the medicine and after taking two
bottles he was completely cured, and,
as he expressed it. felt as if he was on
earth for the second time. He has
•never had any boils since. We take
Hood’s as a spring medicine and gladly
recommend it.” Mrs. A. E. Staysa,
Yonkers, N. Y.
Scrofula from Birth.
“I have found Hood's to he the
greatest blood purifier I ever took,
and I have tried many medicines. I
was a sufferer with scrofula from
birth. My eyes were so badly affected
I would be almost blind for a week
at a time. My neck began to swell
so that I could not breathe freely.
Medicines failed to do me any good
until I began taking Hood's Sarsa
parilla. Today 1 have excellent health
and my eyes give me very little
trouble. I owe it all to Hood’s, which
I recommend to all suffering from any
disease of the blood.” Miss Kettil
McGuire, Silver Creek, Ky.
That Tired Feeling.
“ I cannot say too much for Hood’s
Sarsaparilla as a remedy for that tired
and worn out feeling one has in the
spring. Asa strength builder and
appetite creator it has no equal.”

WATCHMAN O’liniKN HKSKiVS.
Development* in < linrlcntnn
f'untom Hounc Cane.
Charleston, S. C.. April 4.—There were
new developments to-day in the Custom
House blind tiger scandal. Watchman
O’Brien of the Custom House resigned
last night and has mysteriously departed,
leaving the inference that he was guilty
of keeping liquors stored in the build
ing.
O'Brien’s resignation is not accepted in
good faith, and according to the general
talk it Is believed that it was the part
of a plan to shield officials higher in au
thority. Ju fact, there was a persistent
rumor this afternoon that Special Agent
Macatee would recommend the dismissal
of Collector Tolbert and Deputy Osten
dorf.
The Investigation, however, is still in
progress, and the result will not be made
known until the official report is sent to
Washington.

The defendant’s attorneys to-day filed
formal notice ©f proposed appeal with the
attorney general and solicitor. In his af
fidavit, Col. Neal said that an impartial
trial could not be had here, because of
prejudicial charges printed in the city

most of the testimony before the investi

incompetent, and would not be permitted
in a court of law; and they have already
poisoned the minds of the people of this
county. A number of prominent business
men make affidavits that a fair trial can
not be obtained here.

THE MORNING NEWS: THU US DAY. APRIL 5. 1900.
\G PRIMARY IN LAI ItKNS.
A Ma** Meeting: to He Held Instead.
Du hi in Newn.
Dublin, Ga., April 4.—At a meeting of
the Democratic Executive Committee
yesterday it was decided that as there
W’ere no funds available for holding a
primary on May 15 for State House offi
cers, etc., that a mass meeting on that
day be held instead. It was also de
cided not to nominate county officers be
fore July 1, the manner of nominating
them and the exact time <o be decided
May 15. The decision of committee
to postpone action wan to enable the peo
ple to get on to the plans of the Popu
lists. This was formerly a Populist
county, but two years ago the Democrats
captured every offie*' except that of or
dinary and County Commissioner, which
held over. It was thought for a while
that no opposition this year would come
from the Populist party, but later de
velopments show that another fight W'ill
be had along the same old lines.
Rev. J. T. Smith, a prominent Baptist
divine and educator, was yesterday
elected county school commissioner
to fill the unexpired term of Col.
W. S. Ramsay, deceased. Mr.
Smith was opposed by Rev. George C.
Thompson, a supernumerary in the South
Georgia Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. Mr. Thompson was
picked as a winner because of the fact
that one of the members of the board
was his brother-in-law, but Mr. Smith
had his political forces better marshaled.
Messrs. R. H. Walker and Thomas R.
Ramsey were spoken of for the place, but
decided at the last moment not to stand
the examination.
Last night Mr. A. P. Hilton, one of the
editors of the 11 Dublin Courier-Dispatch,
was elected a member of the Board of
Education to fill the vacancy caused by
the deah of Col. W. S. Ramsay. Mr.
Hilton is a graduate of Emory College and
is in every way qualified for the position.
His election was unanimous, wdiich at
tests his popularity.

THE WORD
RHEUMATISM
Is Used to Cover a Multitude
of Diseases.
(NEW YORK JOURNAL MARCH 11. 1900.)
"Nowadays the word ‘Rheumatism’ is used to cover a multitude
of diseases. They are all allied by the common bond of what the phy
sicians call ‘uric acid poisoning’—an excess of uric acid In the blood,
and are. generally speaking,, ‘kidney troubles’—with the real cause of
danger not so much in the aches and pains—the signals of distress given
out by the muscles and joints—as in the gradual vitiation of the blood
by the failure of the kidneys to eliminate the deadly poison called ‘uric
acid,’ from the ‘physical economy.* This vitiation of the blood resubs
in ‘rheumatism’ (although it is a vague word) and a variety of symp ms
which not infrequently end in what is called Bright’s disease—the dis
ease of which James G. Blaine, Mr. Cleveland’s great political rival,
died. It is the disease which medical authorities say is becoming m re
and more alarmingly prevalent in the United States of America, espec
ially among the thinking, planning and writing classes—the classes
made up of the kind of men that it is the fashion to call distinctively
‘brainy men.’ ”
From the rending of intelligently edited paper*, and from examina
tion* for life insurance, the great public I* rapidly learning the fact that
the human nystem become* thoroughly poisoned when tlie kidney* fail to
do the work nature intended them to do, and that if not speedily cured,
rheumatism, heart dist'nse, Bright’* disease, and death *iircly follow. The
kidney*, and they alone, purify the lilood. Tonic* and no-ealled sprang
medicine* prove costly and miserable failure*. There is one ilcientifle.
Vegetable specific for all kidney trouble*—Warner’s Safe Cure—a prepara
tion with 21 year* of *ueccsn behind it. A positive cure for Mick; and tired
nut kidney*. Not an experiment nor a goad, bnt a noothing, harmless, yet
conquering friend. Give it n chance to-day to do yon lasting good.
