The joint committee of the Leg

a decisive victory.
Atlanta is grabbing for another

methods. In this issue of the Ad
vance several parties courteously >
ask for that which is due them. If ,
you owe any body—and who is it;
that does not owe some one?—pay
them, if you can, and by so doing
you will the better enable that one
to pay another, and so on. Thus

Congress assembled one woek ago
last Monday, and it is within
bounds to say that never since the
close of the war have the states
men at the Capitol, at the opening
of a session of Congress, felt the
weight of responsibility bearing
upon them to such an extent as
thev do at the present time. Sen
ator Morgan was promptly on
'hand with his bill for the construc
tion of the Nicaraguan canal, and
succeeded in having it made tha
unfinished business in the Senate,
which insures its early considera
tion.

Court Meets and Adjourns.
The September adjourned term of
Cherokee superior court met last Mon- '
day, but there were very few cases to
be tried and the court adjourned Tues
day evening.
The grand jnry, however, held over
to Wednesday evening in order to fin
ish up the business before that body.
Owing to his ilines, Judge Goberdid
not come up and Judge A. W. Fite, of
the Cherokee circuit, presided, and
dispatched the business in such a man
ner as to win him many new friends
among our people.
While on the bench Judge Fite pre
sides with ease and dignity, but when
“with the boys” he is truly one of
them, happy-hearted, genial and com
panionable. His rulings are plain and
pointed and his charges to jury clear.
Even when passing.sentence bis earn
est: but respectful nnnner so impresses
those neing sentenced that a “thank
you, judge,” almost always ackm wl
i edges th.* consideration
Judge File is, by-t lie-way, one of the
bast Judges in the state, fearless in
the discharge of duty, a fine advocate
at. the bar and a man of irreproachable
character. Our people will be glad to
have him come again
A. W. Roberts, of Bai) Ground, fore
man ot the grand jury, was taken ill
Monday and bad to be excused from
further service He has since been
confined to his bed at A. B. Coggins’
with high fever and threatened-pneu
monia. Mrs. Roberts was telegraphed
and has been with him since Tuesday
morning. His many friends wish him
a speedy recovery. Mr. Roberts was
able to return home yesterday.
There are now four men in jail un
der sentence and they will probably be
taken out or sent off this week. They
are Jno. Kellogg,col., under 12 months
sentence; George Bryson, col., and
Steve Honea each under 6 months
sentence or SSO tine, and Berry Frea
man, col., who has been arrested since
court on a misdemeanor charge.
Judge James R. Brown was in the
city last Thursday. The Judge’s face
aud form are familiar on the
streets of Ellijay, but while he has the
respect and confidence of our people
his presence does not inspire the ter

A. K & N. Has Horrible Wreck.
A horrible wreck occurred at Knox
ville on the A. K. & N. railroad on last
Monday night, which resulted in the
death of Engineer George T. Wilson,
of Marietta; thedisplacingof the knee
cap of Fireman Ed Reed, of Marietta;
the breaking of the right arm of Con
ductor Quillian, and the bruising of
Brakeman* Glover, colored.
The turning of t liT’JWi(iy,, t
unknown miscreant, to a side track
leading down grade to the Lime Kiln,
was the cause, the train plunging into
cars on the track.
The remains of Engineer Wilson
were carried to Marietta Wednesday
for interment.
Jesse McLain, of Canton, who was a
brother-in-law of Mr.Wilaon, went to
Marietta Tuesday to attend the funer
al aud burial of Mr. Wilson.
Will McKinney, whois well known
here and along the line of the A. K. &
X railroad, on -which road he was for
merly employed, was shot five times by
a negro last week. He is now at his
home in Marietta. Mr. McKinney has
been engineer on the Norfolk & West
ern railroad for sometime and in at
tempting to put a negro off bis engine
who was stealing a ride, he was held
.and shot by the negro, but when the
negro released him and started off Mc-
Kinney shot and killed him.

A Wife Says*
I u We have four children. With the first
three I suffered almost unbearable pains from
12 to 14 hours, and had to be placed under
the influence of chloroform. I used three
bottles of Mother's Friend before our lasi
child came, which
is a strong, fat and
healthy boy, doing
ir.y housework up
to within two hours
of birth, and suf
fered but a few hard
pains. Tliis lini
ment is the grand-/
est remedy ever
made.”
liiotlier’s
Friend
/
will do for every woman what it did for th*
Minnesota mother who writes the above let
ter. Not to use it during pregnancy is a
mistake to be paid for in pain and suffering
Mother's Friend equips the patient with a
strong body and clear intellect, which in
turn are imparted to the child. It relaxes
the muscles and allows them to expand. It
relieves morning sickness and nervousness.
It puts ail the organs concerned in perfect
condition for the final hour, so that the actual
labor is short and practically painless. Dan
ger cf rising or hard breast is altogether
avoided, and recovery is merely a matter ol
a few days.

neglects the little headaches, the loss of
appetite and sleep, nervousness, hot flush
ings, cold chills, heavy head, lax muscles,

the heralds of approaching sickness and

For men who suffer in this way there is

elements that build new, healthy flesh. It
is the great blood-maker and flesh-builder.
It cures 98 per cent, of all cases of con

remedies for nervous troubles, Thousands
have told, over their own signatures, the
stories of the wonders it has performed.

Capt. J. O. Robertson went up to
Talona last Friday to look at some
mineral property.
There are several good gold
mine deals nearing consummation
that we are led to believe will sure
ly be made in a very short while.
Dr. Ellis, of Canada, is still here
examining the gold properties of
Cherokee. He is much pleased
with what he has seen and believe
there is a great future for this sec
tion.
The Owl Hollow gold mines, to
gether with the entire Davis mill,
farm and other property, which is
located about one mile east of Uni
zeter, seems a sure go. John A.
Scott, of Canton, who owns prop
erty, signed certain papers last
Twfcek-which focuibes the deal. A.
W. is ■ negotiating the- eal*
ind has millionaire capitalists in
terested in the purchase of the
property.
Capt. McCollough and Charles
Harness haiu returned from Ohio
end resumed work on the gold
property offßoberts and Gilstrap,
near the Creighton gold mining
property, which their company in
tend fully prospecting and develop
ing. A mill, hydraulic plant and
other necessary machinery will be
put up on the property at once, and
he work pushed. This is a fine
proposition, and immediately ad
joins the Charles gold mining prop
erty, which, we understand, is also
to be shorty re-opened and the 19-
stamp mill put to work on the ore
now ready for milling.
Our exchanges bring the good
news of a big gold mine deal rec
ently consummated for Lumpkin
county properties, the considera
tion of which is evidently very
large inasmuch as $5,000 in reve
nue stamps is said to be placed on
the deed conveying same, which is,
perhaps, one of the largest amounts '
ever required for a similar purpose
in the country. The properties in
question represent 4,671 acres of
mineral lands in the immediat
vicinity ofiDahlonega, the bulk of 1
which isfgold bearing, but with a 1
590-acre tract of valuable manga- >
nese deposits. The deed of trans- 1
fer, covers, in addition to the 1
landed interest, all the improve- 1
ments thereon, consisting of num- I
erous mining outfits, elevators, 1
stamp mills, 105 dies stamps, <
buildings, 500 horse cars, 40 miles t
of artificial canals, railway track r
and rolling stock and all the ap- a
p'icances and machinery natural j
to an extensive mining interest. c
Ohio capital is very largely back
ing the venture, and among those .
most interested we notice mention
of J. W. Adams, G. B. Paul, R. C. a
Thompson, H. D. Ingersoll, and r
