Sixteen states of the union—north,

accompanied by numerous staffs.
Though worn and weary the legisla¬

President AIcKinley was sworn in at
1:17 p. m., on a handsomely decorated
stand at the east end of the capitol, in
the presence of a surging multitude.
The dense undulating throng filled
all the winding walks, the broad ave-
uues and radiating streets, overflow-
ing into thousands into the sweep of
lawn and even seeking the tree tops

Quite as many women were in the
throngs as men, wearing bright hats
and gay gowns, mingling with the

occasion there was entire change and
instead of having the president wait

presidential party did not appear until
all the invited guests had assembled
and everything was in readiness to
administer the oath.
By this time the haiil had turned in¬
to a steady drizzle of rain making the
officials and the ambassadors shift un¬
easily under the downpour.
When the special ■nests had been
ushered to their seats "there was a mo¬

then he raised his rightl hand. In the
intense stillness faintly could be heard
the solemn w’ords of thk oath to main¬

in a strong voice, easily heard by those
near the front of the stiaud. His face
looked very grave as thd oath was pro¬

As the president spoke the pent-up

the president was well protected, and
there was no faltering in the address

The following telegram from Wash¬

from Congressman Brantley by Mayor
Emanuel: “Bill carrying an increase
of §50,000 for Brunswick’s public
building has passed the house and
senate, and now only awaits the signa¬

Immediately upon receipt of the
telegram Alayor Emanuel wired a note

Jurlgro Barllett Improve*.
Judge Bartlett underwent a surgical
operation at Washington the past week
aud his physicians believe that the
success of the operation means his
speedy recovery. His physicians dis¬
covered that his pneumonia had left
an accumulation of pus on the pleura,
and it was determined that this should
be drawn off. The operation is one
well known to surgery aud is not re¬
garded dangerous at all.
Colony In a Bad Way.
Alembers of the Rnskin colony are
leaving in large numbers, and the
financial condition of The Coming Na¬
tion is such that the property will
doubtless be sold to liquidate the in¬
debtedness of the colony. A circular
letter has been sent to every member
of the colony, stating that a petition
has been filed with the secretary of
the Ruskin Commonwealth, signed by
more than 20 per cent of the members
(both resident and non-resident) ask¬
ing that a vote be taken on Alarch 10,
1901, on a proposition to sell out.
XVidows Will Be Raid.
No widow of a Confederate veteran
iu Georgia who has heretofore been
drawing her annual pension, will go
without it this year.
The fund for widows’ pensions,§200-
000, ran out this year before all the
widows’ pensionc were paid, aud the
officials at the capitol have been some¬
what in doubt as to what they would
do.
All this was settled a day or two ago
when it was decided that the widows
should paid as usual out of an unex¬
pended balance in the treasury, and
the legislature will be asked to pass
a deficiency appropriation bill to meet
the emergency at its next session.
The matter w'as considered, aud this
conclusion reached at a conference
held in the governor’s office. Those
taking part were Governor Candler,
Speaker John D. Little, of the house;
President Clark Howell, of the senate;
Chairman A. O. Blalock, of the house
appropriations committee; Chairman
Seaton Grautland, of the senate ap¬
propriations committee, and Attorney
General Terrell, Pension Commissi¬
oner J. W. Lindsey also attended the
conference to furnish whatever infor¬
mation was needed with regard to the
widows who were unpaid.
There were eighty-eight widows on
the pension roll who have not received
their pension money this year. How
many of these are dead is not known,
but it is probable that at least fifty or
sixty of them, aud perhaps more, are
still living. At any rate, it is calcu¬
lated that about §4,000 will be needed
to finish paying them, and there is
only §20 of the widows’ fun still left
in the treasury.
It was decided at the conference that
the governor should issue an emer¬
gency order directing that the treas¬
urer pay the remaining widows their
pensions out of an unexpended bal¬
ance in the treasury.

To Enlarge Waterworks.
The committee of citizens appointed
by the mayor of Atlanta to confer with
the board of water commissioners con-
corning the waterworks system of the
city have issned a statement to the
public in which property owners are
urged to rote for the bond issue. This
election takes place on the 20th of this
month and the committee sets forth in
their statement reasons for the appeal.
It is proposed to issue $200,000 worth
of bonds to extend the present system,
vhich Fire Chief Joyner has declared
was so inadequate as to cripple the

Removal Hearing March 81.
District Attorney Marion Erwin is
in receipt of a telegram from New
Yor£ announcing that Judge Brown
had set for March 21 the hearing on
the application for removal of Benjamin
D. Greene, J. F. Gaynor and the other
defendants charged with conspiracy
with Capt. O. M. Carter to the juris¬
diction of the court for the southern
district of Georgia. Defendants will
claim that the action of Commissioner
Shields is nugatory and seek to pre¬
vent the issuance of the warrant of
removal on that ground.

Bond Election Illegal.
The state supreme court has handed
down a decision which means much to
Rome and Floyd county.
Some weeks ago an election was call¬
ed by the connty commissioners for
the purpose of voting on the issuance
of bonds agregating §09,000 in order
to meet pressing obligations of the
county. The registration books were
opended aud about 4,000 registered for
the election.
A final count revealed the fact that
2,000 bad voted to give the commis¬
sioners authority to issue bonds run¬
ning for 20 years for the amount re¬
quired to pay the county’s debt. A
statute makes the duty of the solicitor
general to enquire into the legality of
all bonds issued before the judge of the
superior court.
In the coutest before Judge Henry it
wras held the bonds could not be issued
as they had not received the requisite
number of votes. The case was carried
to the supreme court,aud this tribunal
of last resort affirmed Judge Henry.
The supreme court holds that two-
thirds of those registered for this
special election must vote for
bonds to comply with the law and not
two-thirds of those who actually depos¬
ited their ballots.
Cotton Mills to Be Enlarged.
The Standard Cotton mills at Cedar-
town constructed last year with 5,000
spindles, turning out a flue article of
hosiery and underwear yarns, is to be
doubled by the owners. William Park¬
er, vice president and general man¬
ager, returned a day or two ago from
a trip east, where he purchased all
necessary machinery, some to be im¬
ported from England.

Shorter Itoad to Florida.
The Plant System has placed a sur¬
veyor corps in the field between Jesup
and Folkston to survey the new line
between those points. The survey
began at Jesup and the work will bv
pushed as rapidly as possible. Thtl
line when completed, which will be at
the earliest possible date, will cross
the Brunsw ick and Western railroad
about 25 miles south of Waycross and
will shorten the present mileage be¬
tween Savannah and Jacksonville lfl
miles.

An Atlanta dispatch says: Governor
Caudler is receiving repeated requests
from the authorities of various coun¬

In many cases these county authori¬
ties want the governor to issue procla¬
mations of quarantine, send special
physicians to take charge of the dis¬

an eminent advocate who was called into
the Presidential Cabinet as Attorney-Gen¬
eral. In midlife he was in a Philadelphia
courtroom engaged in an important trial.
The attorney on the opposite side of the
case got irritated and angry, and in most
brutal manner referred to the distin¬
guished deeply attorney’s disfigured face, a face
more scarred than any face I ever
saw. The legal hero of whom I am speak¬
ing in his closing argument said: “Gentle¬
men of the jury, when I was a little child
I was playing with my sister in the nurs¬
ery, and her clothes caught fire^ and I ran
to her to put out the fire. I succeeded,
but I myself took fire, and before it was
and extinguished black my face was awfully burned
as as the heart of the scoun-
drelly counsel on the other side of the
case who has referred to my misfortune.”
The eminent attorney of whom I speak
carried all his life the honorable scar of
his sister’s rescue.

When we see a veteran in any land who
has lost a limb in battle, our sympathies
are the stirred; but. oh. how roanv have in
domestic realm lost their life and yet
are denied a pillow of dust on which f.o
slumber! Better enlarge your roil of mar¬
tyrs: better adoot a new mode of count¬
ing human sacrifications. A broken bone
is not half as bad as a broken heart.
There are many who can in the same
sense that Paul uttered it say, "I bear in

for sake of Christ and His
cause indenture they carry scars which keen their

his career you have no doubt of it. In
his hair youth the he learned how to fashion the
of Cilician goat into canvas, a
quiet trade, and then Went to college, the
President of. which was Gamaliel, an in¬
stitution which scholars say could not have
been very thorough because of what they
call Paul’s imperfect command of Greek
syntax. But his history became exciting
on the road to Damascus, where lie was
unhorsed and blinded. His conversion was
a convulsion. Whether that fall from the
horse may have left a mark upon him. I
know not, but the mob soon took after
treated him and him flogged until and he had imnrisoned and mal¬
sears more than
enough to assure the truthfulness of his
of utterance, the Lord ‘‘I Jesus.” bear in my body the marks
All ye who bear in your body the marks
of the Lord Jesus, have you thought what

“’Where did you get that scar?” saint will
say to saint, and there will come back a

the grace of the gospel.
“Where did you get that mark?” says
another spirit to listening spirit, and the
answer comes: “That is a reminder of a

Some one in heaven will say to Martyr
