Houses Will Observe the
Early Closing Agreement.
Tho stores of the city will begin
this afternoon the 6 o’clock closing

observed between the 1st of May and

neither business men nor the buying
public would, for any consideration,
go back to the old conditions, under
which stores remained open, the year
round, until long after dark.
At the hour of 0 this evening all the
retail stores will close their doors, and
clerks and merchants will have the
remainder of the day for rest and such
recreation as they may see fit to seek.

HARRIS PLUMBING CO.
LADIES NAMED
St. Petersburg, May 1.—The Novo
Vremya prints a circumstantial story
which tends to confirm the reports
that Father Gapon has been assassin
ated by a revolutionist. Father Gapon
is represented as having entered into
relations with a group of the "Fight
ing Organization" of the terrorists,
and in order to test his loyalty oue of
the leaders, an engineer named Ruten-
berg, under the alias of Mnvtiui, offer
ed to betray secrets of the organiza
tion *o the government. Gapon, ac
cording to the story,, took the bait He
offered to conduct the negotiations.
Some haggling about the price to be
paid followed, Rutenberg demanding
$50,000. Finally, however, on his
agreeing to accept $12,500, Gapon went
to Odarki, a small place beyond thfe
frontier, to meet Rutenberg for a con
summation of the agreement. He has
not been seen since. A Jewess named
Holstein, a member of a grpup of rev
olutionaries who were Gapon’s friends,
knew he was In close consultation at
the time and that he mysteriously dis
appeared the day afterward.
The plain inference is, the paper
says, that the revolutionaries, finding
Gapon to be a traitor, executed him,
and that Gapon*s papers, which
reached his lawyer, Margolin, from

OVER EVIL POTATO BUG.
Remedy Suggested by Ma
con Lady, Which Is Said
to be an Infallible Means
of Putting the Multi-Col
ored Garden Pest Entirely
Hors du Combat.
The Macon Telegraph this morning
publishes the following, and we feel
like It deserves'the prominence which
Is here given to It In The Herald:
Are there bugs on your potato
vines? An infallible remedy, which Is
both simple and inexpensive, has been
sent the Telegraph by Mrs. Juhan, and
all readers of the paper, whose potato
vines have been devastated by the fes
tive multi-colored, evil little bug,
whose vitality Is equalled only by his
appetite, who will follow the recipe,
will soon be rid of the pests.
The remedy is as follows: "Boll
the foliage of a cedar tree, making a
strong tea. Sprinkle the vines with
the tea—an ordinary sprinkling or wa
tering pot is excellent for thiq use.
The bugs will disappear,, and until the
odor and all other traces of the tea
have been washed away by the rains
and absorbed by the sun, no more
trouble with the hugs will be experi
enced.”
Officer Walden is kept pretty bill
making out cases against the violator
of the city ordinance against usin
water for sprinkling purposes out c
the regular hours. The people ougl
to know by now that the authoritle
are determined to enforce this.
I fit the masses with scientiflcall
fitted glasses. Dr. C. I, Hutchason.
The * weather report does not yet
promise us rain, but It goes to the ex
tent of promising that tomorrow will
be partly cloudy in Georgia. And as
it must get cloudy before It can rain,
this is accepted as an encouraging
Albany’s need of new dwell!

ious to come to this city and make
their home Is growing more urg<
every day.
