June Weddings
Of course, there’ll be June
weddings—there always are.
And, of course,- there’ll be
presents to buy for the pretty
June brides.
It is especially opportune,
therefore, for us to call at-
tentioh here to the fact that
throughout the elegant H., J.
& Co. stock of fine Sterling
Silver and rich Cut Glass, the
Dissolution Sale prices pre
vail.
The extremely reasonable
prices at which H., J. & Co.
have always sold these goods
have been liberally reduced,
for this big sale. Thcconse-
quence is that these stock?

be equalled in the state.

Better Supply Your Wants During This Sale and Be
Glad of It, Than to Be Sorry You Didn f t
One thing the buying public is unanimous on; and that is that the Dissolution Sale of the great
H., J. & Co. 19Q6 Spring and Summer stock combines more , quality of goods and liberality of reductions
than any sale ever conducted in South Georgia. This, of Course, means bigger values — values that
appeal, not only through their low price, but also through their high quality. .
Albany has been in existence about 70 years. This is the first sale in the city’s history in which
such reductions have.been marked on so magnificent a stock in its entirety. Probably another 70 years
will roll around before history will repeat itself. Indeed, it is the chance of a life time.
It is difficult to select from the multitudinous number of matchless values a few examples for enu
meration which can give any satisfactory idea ofi what this sale can save you., There’s only one way
for you to get the most out of this big saving opportunity. Come to the store. Study carefully the
values offered, and buy what is best suited to your needs and your purse. We want to help you do
this, and we hope you will accept this as an earnest invitation to carry out this suggestion.

MICHAEL DAVITT
SINKING RAPIDLY.
Dublin, Ireland, May 30. — Michael
Davltt continued to lose ground today,
and at 1 p. m. was In a most critical
condition.
At Tbmplb B’nai Israel this morning
was held one of the most beautiful
and important services of the Jewish
calendar, when a class of five children
were confirmed Into the Jewish con
gregation.
The service was one of the most in
teresting confirmation exercises ever
conducted in the city. Dr. Edmund A.
Landau, the popular rabbi of the tem
ple, officiated in his usual graceful
manner, and all who were present
were deeply impressed with the inspir
ing ceremony.
There have been larger classes than
the one which was confirmed this
morning, but there has never been a
prettier service than that in which the
members of this class were received
into the congregation. The class was
composed of Bertram M. Altheimer,
Maud B. Altman, Jeannette A. Parkas,
Sadie M. Gortatowsky and Blanche' S.
Weslosky.
One very delightful feature of this
morning’s exercises was the exquisite
music which was rendered by the tem
ple choir. The choir is composed of
Miss Martha Cohn, Miss Tessib Gorta
towsky, Miss Gertrude Plonsky, Miss
Mattie Pinkston. Dr. E. H. Dennison
and Mr. A. C. Gortatowsky, with Miss
Settie Sterne as organist.
Dr. Landau’s address of welcome to
the confirmation class is always the
most important feature of the service,
and it was no exception this morning.
This brilliant youhg rabbi seemed at
his best today and his earnest and im
pressive words should prove a life
long inspiration to those whom he ad
dressed.
The following is the detailed pro
gram of the beautiful confirmation ser
vice this morning:
Organ Prelude—“Andante in G”—
Batiste.

Lord”—Corbin.

mund A. Landau.

DECORATION DAY
EXCURSION.
Many Negroes from this City and Sec-
• tion Off to Andersonvilie.
Today being national Decoration
Day the annual excursion was run
from Albany and points below on the
A. C. L. to Andersonvilie. A large
number of negroes went, and when
the train pulled out it was a joyous
crowd that crowded the coaches. This
is always quite an event with the ne
groes, and those who are able to raise
the railroad ticket always attend. ,
• It is to be hoped that the usual ac
companiment of negro excursions—a
shooting affray on the return trip—
will be avoided today. The presence
of so many of the colored race in a car
is generally conducive to trouble.
COL. J. H. ESTILL
IN ALBANY TODAY.
The South Georgia Candidate for Gov
ernor Speaking at the Court House.
Col. J. H. Estill, the South Georgia
candidate for governor, arrived in Al
bany today and is announced to speak
at the courthouse at 4 o*clock this af
ternoon. His visit to Albany comes at
a time when he will have to contend
with two local attractions—the state
convention of Elks and a league base
ball-game, but he is nevertheless sure
of a good crowd to hear him speak, as
he has a strong following in this city
and county. •
65 DROWNED
AT RIGA, RUSSIA.
Overloaded Excursion Steamer Cap
sized—Only Ten Escaped.
Riga, Russia, May 30.—An overload
ed excursion steamboat capsized here
last evening, drowning sixty-five per
sons. Only ten were saved of all on
board.
Baseball, the picnic, Col. Estill—
few of the Albany people will stay at
home this afternoon.
TENNESSEE
Having a Strenuous Time in
Convention at Nashville.
Temporary Chairman at
Last Elected.
Nashville, Tenn., May 30.—The del
egates to the State Democratic Con
vention, who wrangled all day yester
day without effecting a temporary or
ganization, were slow in gathering to
day after yesterday’s strenuous ses
sion.* The convention was called to
order by W. T. Murray, of Chattanoo
ga, a member of the conference com
mittee appointed yesterday afternoon
to agree on a temporary chairman.
Murray read the report, of the com
mittee, which suggested Jas. C. Brad
ford, of Nashville, as a suitable com
promise.
Bradford was chosen temporary
chairman by acclamation and the con
vention proceeded to a temporary or
ganization. - Bradford is a prominent
lawyer of this city.
After the completion of the tem
porary organization the convention ad
journed until 3 o’clock to give the cre
dentials committee time to investigate
contests in the various counties. It
is possible that nominations may be
made tonight.
The Flint has gone down in a hurry
after the late rains.
The heat today can be truly termed
“excessive.”
TEFFREY HILL HIT
BY OFFICER KEMP.
The “Senator” Interrupted in One of
His Crowing Feats and Failed to
“Move On” When Ordered.
This morning there was a little trou
ble in front of the fire department
headquarters, in which Assistant Chief
of Police J. W. Kemp and Jeffrey Hill
figured. The “Senator,” as he loves
to call himself, was crowing for the
benefit of some spectators grouped
around the place, and Officer Kemp
ordered him to stop and move on.
Jeffrey replied in an impudent man
ner, brandishing his stick and gener
ally making himself insolent, as is his
way, but entirely without meaning it
in a serious way. This aroused the
wrath of the officer and he advanced
upon Jeffrey. The negro started out
across the street, the officer pursuing.
When about half way across the street
Mr. Kemp caught up and struck Jef
frey across the shoulder with his
club. Jeffrey half way faced round at
this, and he was then struck twice on
the head. At this juncture Fire Chief
James interposed and the row was
There was some indignation around,
town over the conduct of Officer
Kemp.
