BASE INGRATITUDE.
He Was Dead But Declined to Remain In the
Coffin.
There is no accounting for the in
gratitude and unreasonableness of some
people remarks the January Gatling

kins, colored, of Dover, Delaware.
Preparations for his funeral had been
completed, friends of the deceased hay
ing contributed a sum sufficient to give
him proper burial. But when the
mourners were taking a last view of the
remains, said remains insisted upon
getting up and walking, talking, and
doing divers other things heretofore.un
heard of on the part of a well behaved
and respectable corpse. Then the fes
tivities had to be called off, and a second
hand casekt in good condition was put
on the market. Hopkins claimed that
he had not been dead at all, but had
simply been in a trance, and the rest had
to take his word for it. There are

and Chas. Jones Shot.
Macon, Jan. 10.—Macon has been
lively and productive in shooting scrapes
the last two nights. Four men have
been wounded, one probably fatally,
three of them negroes. The soldiers
have had much to do with the several
shooting affrays.
Monday night Sergeant J. B. Sullivan,
of the Third Engineers, was shot while
trying to force an entrance into the
home of Mr. N. B. Johnson, of Vineville.
He is not seriously wounded. It seems
that a lot of soldiers under the influence
of liquor were out on a trip for. revelry,
and they got in the wrong section of the
city. The shooting created much ex
citement in Vineville.
Last night William Carter, a negro
who claims 154 Auburn avenue, Atlanta,
as his home, was shot near Tompkins
hotel. It is supposed a negro soldier
shot the man.
George Dillard and Charles Jones
were shot on Fourth street. Walter
Price fired a load of shot at them as a
result of a dispute as to who should have
possession of a quarter given the ne
groes for playing musical instruments
in concert.

THE THIRD GEORGIA.
“The chief burning with patriotism
asked leave of absence that he might go
to Atlanta and join in the celebration of
jubilee, and in order that he might have
a real good time he provided himself
with all the loose cash he found in the
office, and started off. At Atlanta he
was met by the fair Messilina who im
mediately roped him in and soon had
him too drnnk to tell his hat from a
spittoon, and while in this jolly plight
she put him in a large Saratoga trunk
and securing a ticket for herself, she
bad him checked to Los Angeles, Cali
fornia, and boarding the train she left
for that fair city of celestial habitants.
“On the wav by some unlucky can-
trip she lost the check for her trunk and
when she arrived at her destination she
could not get it out of the baggage office,
and for three days and nights the poor
chief had to lay bundled up in the trunk
half smothered by the lady’s unmen
tionable laundry without a bite to eat.
There is no telling how much the chief
suffered during the long ride and at the
rough handling by the baggage smasher,
but it is sufficient to know that when at
last he was released, he tumbled out of
that trunk a sober, is not a wiser man,
So flabbergasted indeed was he that he
immediately wrote back home to his
friends to effect a compromise of his
shortage and to help him get back.
A TEXAS WONDER.

Probability of Tbdr Getting Away in the Next
Day or Two.
The following concerning the move
ment of the Third Georgia and the six
troops of the Seventn Cavalry will be of
interest to Athens and elsewhere. It is
from the Morning News of Savannah:
The transport Manitoba arrived yes
terday afternoon about 5 o’clock. It was
intended to place her at the Central
wharf, but as a report came that another
vessel looking like a transport was off
Tybee the Manitoba has been berthed at
the Gordon wharf. The Miunewaska is
expected in today, and will go up to the
Central wharf.
It is a matter of uncertainty as to
what troops will go on the Manitoba.
The transport is scheduled to take six
troops of the Seventh Cavalry, which
regiment is now at Macon. On her
arrival, though, it was found that the
accommodations for horses had been re
moved. In order to avoid any delay to
the transport Col Berner wired the
quartermaster-general suggesting tha
the Third Georgia be shipped
to Neu vitas on the Manitoba, leaving
hereon Tuesday afternoon, and that
carpenters be sent on tbe ship to make
the necessary preparations for the cav
alry horses during the voyage, so that
she conld take over six troops on her re
turn, the other six troops going on the
Ronmania. No reply came last night,
bat this morning will decide whether
the Third Georgia is to leave at once or
not.
If the department decides to adhere
to the original program, carpenters will
ONLY TEN DAYS MORE

The Third New Jersey and Fifteenth
Pennsylvania Regiments will be

the United States in Athens.
It will be about ten days before the
soldiers will leave the service of Uncle
Sam.
The mastering oat officers arrived in
Athens yesterday and are quartered at

D. A. Frederick, Captain Edgar W.

And Save Endless Suf
fering which Winter
Brings.
The most offensive of all dis
eases becomes more intense as cold
weather approaches. In fact,
many who have been under treat
ment for so long, and during the
summer feel little discomfort from
the disease, are almost persuaded
that, they have been cured. But
the first chilling blast of winter
proves t hat the disease is still with
them, and as the winter advances,
their Catarrh grows in-severity.
Those who have felt only a slight
touch of Catarrh may be sure that
only cold weather is needed to de
velop the disease. What appears
to be only a bad cold will prove
more difficult to cure than for
merly, and will return with more
frequency, until before long the
disease is fully developed.
‘For years I suffered from a severe
case of Catarrh, and took several kinds
of medicines and used various local ap
plications, but they had no effect what
ever. I was induced to try S. S. S.

“B. P. McAllister,
“Harrodsburg, Ky.”
Those who get a start on the dis
ease before the cold and disagree
able weather aggravates it, will
find a cure less difficult. Catarrh
increases in severity year by year,
and becomes one of the most ob
stinate and deep-seated troubles.
But it is equally important that
the right remedy be given. All
local applications of sprays,
washes, inhalations, etc., can
never cure Catarrh, for they do
not reach the dis
ease. Catarrh is
in the blood, and
only a blood
remedy can cure
it. Local appli-
cations only
reach theirritated
surface; the right
remedy must be
taken internally.
Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.) is the
right remedy for Catarrh. It
cures the most obstinate cases by
going direct to the cause of the
trouble—the blood—and forcing
out the disease. Those who have
met with so much disappointment
from local treatment should throw
aside their sprays, washes and in
haling mixtures and take S. S. S.

Cuban Officer Almost Raised a Riot With the
- Police.
Havana, Jan. 10.—John Gary Evans’
though not exactly alcade, or mayor of
Havana, has been directed by Gen. Lud
low to reconstruct the minor courts and
supervise the police and some of the
civil departments.
Major General Ludlow recently re
quested the Caban general Julio San-
gtully to stay outside the city, or, in the
event of his entering it, not to wear his
uniform in public. Sangnilly was in
formed in writing that he would be
severely dealt with in the event of pro
voking any more trouble such as
curred at the Albisu theater a few nights
ago, when, with a party of friends, he
almost provoked a physical conflict with
two members of the municipal police
who had sainted him. Gen. Ludlow
sent a copy of tbe letter to Gen. Maya
Rodrigues, Sanguilly’s superior, and it
is understood that Gen. Rodrignez also
cautioned him.
Bat today he has - been seen around
the city conspicuous in a white duck
salt and white-brimmed Panama hat,
wearing the three gold stars of a major
general. Attended by eight or ten
friends, curling bis long gray monstach
and twisting his imperial, he has been
ostentatiously posing in the cafes, utter
ly without regard to Gen. Lndlow's di
rections. Sangnilly seems to be looking
for trouble. Though unpopular with
the Cuban chiefs, he has a large follow
ing among the lower classes. The at

Sergeant Barrett writes interestingly
of the voyage from Savannah to Ha

city he says: "I had previously been
appointed ‘color-sergeant and was glad
to be the seargeant that was first to
carry the stars and stripes through
Havana. We marched through the
city and met for a time with a cool re

the city a mile or so, they began to ad
