ONLY WHITE COTTON.
Georgia Soil Will Not Produce the
lirown Variety.
The announcement has been made in
some of the trade publications of this
country that the German government pro
pose© to try the experiment of planting
Egyptian cotton in its South African pos
sessions with the idea that the climate
and soil of South Africa being similar to
that of Egypt, equally good results might
be obtained there.
Sea island cotton men of gavannah, to
whose attention this announcement has
been brought, are not at all alarmed as
to the outcome. Cotton is a plant which
is very much affected by conditions of
soil and climate; and this is especially the
case with the sea island variety. Even
where the conditions appear to be similar,
the results seldom fail to come up to ex
pectations.
“The experiment of planting Egyptian
cot'on in this section was made some
V'.irv ago.” said a member of a well
known firm which handles a great deal
°f the sea island product. ‘‘The United
States agricultural department distribut
ed considerable quantities of seed to the
farmers of Georgia and Florida, and many
of them gave it a trial. The first results
w-re unsatisfactory, as the farmers mix
td the Egyptian and sea island staples,
thus lowering the grade of the sea isl
ands. Bv saving their seed, however, a
Pw farmers were enabled to send I.ls
hags entirely of the Egyptian variety.
The top being badly damaged by the
weather that year, there were a* great
many grades and we were able to work

1 *re is a great deal of Egytian cotton

;t would be a very good thing for the cot
,on planters if they could produce a simi
gra i<- here. The great advantage of
Egytian lies in its brownish tinge, the
p’"" '' ing exactly that commonly seen in
J : Sht knit underwear. We have been un

ODD FELLOWS NIST HIHTHDAY.
Savannah Lodges Will Celebrate It
April 2<i,
The present time is a busy one among
the various lodges of Odd Fellows, as be
sides the anniversary of the order, which
will take place April 26, elections are now'
due for representatives to the Grand Lodge
and the grand encampment.
Magnolia Encampment No. 1 will send
as its representatives Messrs. Charles E.
Stanton, James Van Bershot and C. H.
Dorseu. Oglethorpe Lodge No. J will be
represented in the Grand Lodge by
Messrs. R. J. Davant and T. R. Hutton,
and DeKalb Lodge will send Mr. Dorsett.
To-night elections for representatives
will be held by Haupt and Concord Lodges,
and to-morrow night by Live Oak. Acorn
Lodge will make its selection next Tues
day, and Golden Rule Lodge on Wednes
day.
While no arrangements have as yet
been made for the celebration of the an
niversary of the order, which will on
April 26 be 81 years old, it is quite likely
that a meeting having for its purpose' the
arranging of a suitable programme for
the occasion will be called for Tuesday
night. In former yyars it has been cus
tomary to celebrate this anniversary by a
general meeting of the lodges, at which
there were usually a number of speakers
and also refreshments. As the past year
has been a prosperous one among the
lodges, it is likely that the customary
celebration will receive even more atten
tion than usual.

THE CENTRAL RAILWAY.
Capt. Howell Talks of Its Condition
and Mr. Hkhii'n Work.
From the Atlanta Constitution, April 11.
Capt. Evan P. Howell, who is a mem
ber of the board of directors of the Cen
tral of Georgia Railroad, returned io
Atlanta yesterday from Savannah. He at
tended the meeting of the directors of the
Central at Savannah, Monday, at which
John M. Egan was elected president of the
road and Maj. J. F. Hanson, of Macon,
chairman of the board of directors.
When Capt. Howell was soon yesterday
he si>okG in enthusiastic terms of the past
services of Mr. Egan, and the bright
prospects of the Central under his man
agement. He also gave some interesting
details concerning the recent improve
ments effected on the road in the way of
new equipment, new track, new terminals
and stations. Capt. Howell says the road
was never in better shape physically or
financially than it is to-day.
Concerning Mr. Egan s election, he said:
‘‘J think the selection made by the board
of directors of the Central Monday was
one of the best that could have been
made. The meml>ers present were unani
mously of this opinion, and all the stock
holders I have seen since the election, in
dorse the action.
"Mr. Comer demonstrated the fact that
it was utterly impossible for one man to
handle all the affairs of the company as
president. Three years ago ho found it
necessary to have some of the immense
load on him relieved, and Mr. Egan was
made vice president and general manager,
I believe Mr. Comer would be alive to-day
if he had been relieved sooner of the very
heavy load he was carrying. HeNbroke his
health by the heavy work.
"Mr. Egan's work has been very success
ful, and he was of very great service to
Mr. Comer in putting the road in line con
dition.
“I have heen over most of the system
lately, and I consider the physical condi
tion of the Central to-day better than it
has even been since Mr. Egan came to
tile road. He lias had laid on the main
line one hundred and eighty miles of
eighty-pound rail, the largest used in the
South; he has built seven new steel
bridges, five new large depots, several
smaller ones and repaired and fixed up
many of the old ones. One of the most
decided Improvements Is in the terminals
at Savanah. There has been expended
over $400,000 in these terminals in three
years.
"A prominent steamship man from Bal
timore who examined these terminal said
a few days ago that they were the best
of the South Atlantic coast. The fact that
the freight Is being handled 30 per cent
cheaper is proof of what has been accom
plished. Three new' sleeping cars, the
very best and as comfortable as can bo
found on any road, have heen added in
the past three months. Three hundred
and sixty new box cars have been added
lo ihe equipment of the road uud hun
dreds of old cars repaired all in the shops
of the company. The expense of equip
ping the freight ears with airbrakes and
automatic couplers has been very heavy.
"Tho road has ll* own terminal In New
York for the Ocean Steamship Company,
and has expended over fISO.uOO improving
It; but It will result in saying s4,no<) per
month to the company. Many other Im
provement* on tile roadbed, filling In lrc-
ties and other expenses to count up large
ly, have very much improved the physical
condition of the road, until to-day it is
one of the best equipped, safest and best
managed roads in the South.
‘‘All these improvements have been
made, too, out of the earnings of tho
road, and tho fixed charges of the company
have not bean increased a dollar.”
‘‘What about the junior securities of
the company?”
“Well, there is some kicking about this,
but I atn sure it will come out all right
in the end. The first incomes would have
received at least 4 per cent, last year but
for the failure of the fruit crop and the
loss on guano last year. From the present
outlook I have no doubt the. first incomes
will receive from 4 to 5 per cent his fall,
and it will only be a short time until all
will draw a dividend. At the present
prices 1 consider these inComt s the best in
vestment in the state.
“If the fixed charges of the company
had been increased to make the improve
ments above alluded to. it would have
postponed the time for any dividend on
the second and third Incomes. Of course,
the improvements have strengthened the
5 per cent, consolidated bonds, and they
are as safe as Georgia stale bonds, in my
opinion.
“Another very great item in the future
of the Central rood is Its popularity with
its patrons along tho lino, li has never
been more friendly than at the present.
Mr. Egan has mingled freely with the
and palronp along the line and is
doing all he can to help the farmers,
dairymen, merchants and manufacturers.
He has been giving especial attention to
ihe. fruit raiser and the lumber men, anil
with few exemptions he is popular with all
,of them.
Mr. Egan has also been very fortu
nate in having a fine corps of assistant
in all departments of the road under him.
I cosider Mr. Theodore Kline one of the
ablest railroad superintendents in th<‘
South and his hand shows in many of the
improvements. In faci, the very best of
men are kept in responsible places, and a
sorry man has very lit lie showing.
“.Major J. F. Hanson, who vs ill take
Mr. Comer’s place as the 'financial head
of the system, is thoroughly equipped for
the place. Ho was closer to Mr. Comer
than any man in the state; is well ac
quainted with the financial condition, hav
ing served on tho executive committee of
the board for three years or more. I
don’t think the directors could have foun 1
a safer man for the place.”

11l iint ncnm of Admiral** Announce
ment l>tie to “Sea Habit.**
From lhe New York Times.
Chicago, April 9.—“ Admiral Dewey has
acted with the customary decision of a
naval officer in announcing his conclusion
to accept a nomination for the presidency
if offered him,” said Capt. Sigsbee to
night, at the Auditorium Hotel.
“I have no criticism to make of his ac
tion,” continued the man who was in com
mand of the Maine when that battleship
was blown up in Havana harbor. “He
simply has expressed his desire, and I
know of no more laudable desire for a
man to express. Its bluntness and ap
parent inappropriateness are characteris
tic of a man whose life has been spent at
sea.
“Navy officers are in the habit of form
ing opinions quickly and expressing them
with frankness. The Admiral has proved
that the, sea habit is rooted in him. As
to the wisdom of his statement, I have
nothing to say. He is the best judge of
that, not I.”

Exclusive Treatment,
In spite of hundreds of requests yearly
from doctors in all parts of the world,

Hathaway’s method of treatment, he be

Blood nnrt Skin Disease*.
Dr. Hathaway’s treatment for blood
diseases In whatever stage cures all
forms of ulcers, sores, blotches, pimples,

purifies the blood that the disease is per

in 90 per eont. of all cases results in a
perfect and permanent cure. No opera

The expense of this treatment is much
less than that of any operation, or hospi
tal or institute treatment, and is both
safe and sure, restoring the organs to a
condition of perfect, normal health.
