MISS AMY MURPHEY.
Her Death Took Place Here and the
Funeraf Will Be in Newcastle, ind,
Brunswick. G»., April 25.—The Bruns-
wick and Birmingham railroad was tak
en charge of yesterdayjby J. R. L. Smith
of Macon, temporary receiver, appointed
by Judge Emory Speer a% Macon Satur
day. The receiver was appointed upon
application of E. C. Machen, former
president of the Brunswick and Birm
ingham, who claims the road owes him
$3,000 for services.
The receivership is a bar to the carry
ing out of the sale of the road to the At
lantic and Birmingham, with which it
has been practically merged, until the.
case is heard before Judge Speer May 2.
The order of fhe courts prohibits the
turning over of the road to any other
receiver than the one named by the fed
eral authorities. It restrains the Atlan
tic and Birmingham also from turning
over to the Kuio^erbocker Trnst Com
pany of New York the securities nego
tiated in tUesalc of the Brunswick and
Birmingham.
’ The receiver is directed to obtain
funds if possible and pay off the in
debtedness of the road for labor and
wages which it is claimed amounts to
about $7,000. It is stated that an ar-
rangement had been made to pay off
this indebtedness before the sale to the
Atlantic & Birmingham wa3 made.
Receiver Smith arrived here today
and formally took charge of the road.
He left tonight for Waycross to tom
fer with the officials of the Atlantic
and Birmingham.
The death of Miss Amy Murphey took
place here Sunday morning at half past
five o’clock, and by her untimely demise,
this earth was robbed of a beautiful
young life.
Miss Murphev was born in Newcastle,
Ind. 32 years ago and had visited Thom-

When you buy a cough medicine for
small children you want one in which
you can placo implicit confidence. You
want one that not only relieves but cures.
You want one that is unquestionably
harmless. You want one that is pleas
ant to take. Chamberlain’s Cough Rem
edy meets all of these conditions. There
is nothing so good for the coughs and j morning,
colds incident to childhood. It is also a
certain preventive and cure for croup,
and there is no danger whatever from
whooping cough when it is given. It has
been used in many epidemics of that
pisease with perfect success. For sale

The death of Mrs. Cathariuo Mathews
Van Dazer, following so soon after that
of her lamented husband, Selah Reeve
Van Duzer, removes from this earth a
lady who was very close to the heart of
Thomasvillo people. The Van Dazer*
were among the earliest visitors to
Thomasville from the north, and among
the first to make valuable investments
and extensive improvements both iu
town and coupty property. No lady
who ever visited TliQinasvillo w’as more
