MEW TELEPHONES
FOR CLASSIC CITY,
Messrs. Phinizy and Lipscomb
Backing the Movement
FOR A NEW COMPANY.
Will Apply (or Franchises and II They Are Se
cured the New System Will Be Constructed
at Once—The Prices for 'Phones
Will Be Reduced.
Athens is to have a new telephone ex
change in the near fatnre.
Iu fact the work necessary to estab
lish the new exchange has already been
started, and two energetic and popular
young Athenians are behind the move
ment.
Messrs. Charles H. Phinizy and Frank
A. Lipscomb have decided to equip and
operate an exchange in this city that
will give the greatest satisfaction.
These gentlemen state that they be
lieve there is good money to be made in
the telephone business in Athens by
charging much less than is now charged
aDd that when their system is installed
here they will be able to furnish 'phones
to the business houses at $30 each and
to residences at $18 each.
They will at once apply to the city
council for franchises under which they
will be permitted to use the streets of
the city, and as soon as they secure the
franchises, the work of constructing the
system will be started.
These gentlemen state that there is
no doubt of the new exchange being
established here, if the city grants the
necessary franchises, and that the citi
zens will be given a most satisfactory
service for much less money than they
are now paying.
The Southern Bell Telephone Com
pany now has 238 subscribers in Athens,
and when the new company starts upon
its work there will be a merry war in
augurated.
Before the discovery of One Minute
Cough Cure, ministers were greatly dis
turbed by coughing congregations. No
excuse for it now.
RECRUITING BEGINS.
War Department Starts' Work of (letting
Additional Soldiers.
Washington, March 9.—The war de
partment has commenced the work of
the recruiting of the additional 25,000
men to give the regular army a strength
of 65,000 instead of 40,000 men.
The number of recruiting stations has
been increased from about forty to be
tween seventy and eighty. The princi
pal stations are at Chicago, New York
and Philadelphia. New stations have
been established at Augusta, Anniston,
Albany, Chickamauga Park, Macon,
Savannah, Hartford, Conn., Harris
burg, Pa., Raleigh, Columbus and other
towns principally in the east. Men will
be first recruited for duty in the. Philip
pine islands and will be ordered, upon ac
ceptance, to join six regiments—Ninth,
Sixth, Thirteenth, Sixteenth and Twen
ty-first infantry and Sixth artillery—
which are under orders to reinforce
General Otis at Manila as soon as the
transport can be arranged.
JAMAICA MAY COME NEXT.
American Sentiments Stronger on the Island
Than Ever Before.
Kingston, Jam., March 9.—The United
States gunboats Annapolis and Vicks
burg have arrived here in advance of
the other ships of the American squad
ron.
Preparations are being made by the
civil and naval authorities for suitably
entertaining Rear Admiral Sampson
and his officers daring their visit to this
port.
Public sympathy with the United
States is evidenced by the general dis
play of American flags throughout the
city and on the shipping in the port.

As the season of the year when pneu
monia, la grippe, sore throat, coughs,
colds, catarrh, bronchitis and lung
troubles are to be guarded against, noth
ing “is a fine substitute,” will “answer

THE POOR IN HAVANA.
Daughters of the Confederacy Will Erect
Honument.
Richmond, Va., March 9.—Tbs design
for the statue to be erected in Holly
wood over the grave of Miss Winnie
Davis, the “Daughter of the Confed
eracy,” has been chosen and approved
by Mrs. Davis.
The matter was finally decided to
night at a meeting of the Richmond
chapter of the Daughters of the Con
federacy. The design, which is by
Zolvey, of New York, is the figure of a
sitting angel. It is to be of Italian mar
ble and will be erected by the Daughters
of the Confederacy. Mrs. Davis writes.
“When I found it possible for this
statue to be erected over Winnie’s
grave, I had a feeling nearer akin to
happiness than I had ever known since
her death.”
General Ludlow Says Twenty Thousand Pauper*
Must be Looked After.
New York, March 9.—Brigadier Gen
eral William Ludlow, governor of Ha
vana, has writien a lengthy letter to the
Evening Post describing minutely the
conditions in the Cuban capital and ap
pealing for assistance for Cuban chari
ties. General Ludlow refers to the local
administration of Havana as a “serious
and laborious task.”
Touching especially upon the matter
of keeping Havana clean, General Lud
low writes that cleaning and sanitation
are carried on “under every difficulty of
a century-old accumulation of evils, a
deficiency of material, inadequate per
sonnel and a paucity and uncertainty as
to funds, wllioh for the present are de
rived from weekly and monthly re
quisitions on the variable custom house
collections, thus multiplying the uncer
tainties and vexatious of the task.”
The destitute, he says, are found in
greater numbers in Havana than the
other provinces
In this department,” writes the gov
ernor, “which includes the city of Ha
vana and its suburban regions west,
south and past, between the rivers Al-
mendares and Colimar, the destitute
drawing rations approximate 20,000,
who mast, for the present, be fed or
permitted to starve.”
Youth ol That Town Have to Stay at Home at
Night.
Conyers, Ga., March 9.—Curfew rings
in this town at 7 o’clock each night. At
that hour the Conyers youth most seek
protection under his own roof or else the
marshal man will get him. With the
sound of the big curfew bell the truant
boys who are wont to linger about the
streets like their truant fathers, per
haps, go skeltering toward their homes,
looking in every direction to see if the
town officer is after them.
Curfew was put in forco here recently
under authority of an obsolete law
which has remained on the Conyers
statute books ineffective for years. It
was dug up from oblivion by the pres
ent city administration, and from the
advent of the mayor who now presides
over the destinies of this city the Con
yers boys hare been staying indoors
after the peal of seven of the town clock.
They stand in the doors and look wist
fully down the streets but flare not ven
ture out under penalty of spending a
term in the city jail if captnred by the
alert marshal who is about in search of
truants.

MRS. SHEPARD’S DEATH.

Illness.
Yesterday morning, at the home of
her brother in Walton county, Mrs. M
H. Shepard passed away after a brief
illness with pneumonia
Mrs. Shepard was the wife of Mr. M
H. Shepard, of this city, and a mother
of Mr. Walter Shepard. She leaves a
husband and seven children to mourn
"her death, and to them the sympathies
of many friends are extended.
Mrs. Shepard was a member of the
Methodist church and a lady of exalted
character. The funeral will be held

will take place.

To the People of GeorgiaThe Ex
ecutive Committee of the Georgia State
Agricultural Society has accepted the
proposition of the citizens of Atlanta,
providing for a State Fair, to be held in
that city, from the 18th of October to
the 4th of November, inclusive. The
organization is now complete A com
prehensive premium list is in course of
preparation, and the work is fully under
way for a successful and attractive dis
play of the state’s resources.
This fair has been undertaken with
the distinct understanding that the
whole effort to be made will look to the
betterment of the educational, indus
trial and agricultural interests of the
commonwealth.
The fair, in all its appointments, is in
tended to become an object lesson to our
own people, along the several lines
named herein, and, at the samo time,
show to outsiders and, especially, to
home-seekers and investors, our possi
bilities, the value of our resources, and
the profitable opportunities offered iu
this state.
The Agricultural Society, aided by
the generous people of this city, has set
about to solve some of the problems
that concern the well-being of every
individual citizen.
The state needs to have its system of
education brought to the highest stand
ard. This can be best done by displays
at the fair, made by city and county
board# of education ; our high schools,
colleges, and universities, so as to give
some demonstration of cheir methods of
instruction and school government, to
gether with the general conduct and
management of their several schools,
Iu this conneciion, we need, also, models
’of school buildings, and attractive dis
plays of school apparatus, libraries, and
all general appliances used, so there
may be a satisfactory examination and a
final acceptance and commendation of
the best. Good schools make the basis
of the best citizenship.
Again, we need to have our raw ma
terial manufactured withiu the limits of
the state.
If, by displays at the fair, we can see
how much of this is now being done and
the lines pursued, we can then know
how much remains to be done and the
best way to get at doing it. We ought
to have, on display, at least a sample of
everything manufactured in Georgia,
from a well bucket to a steam engine.
Such displays will help the manufac
turers and largely benefit the state.
Especially do we need to have our
agricultural conditions advanced and
the rural districts of the state, thereby,
brought into better material prospect
Possibly, we need to stress this feature
and the public-spirited people who hav
co-operated with them will be far more
than compensated for the efforts they
put forth for the common good.
If this end is, in any measure, to be
accomplished by displays of products
that pay,. together with detailed state
ment of cost and sale, farmers will have
something to study to prbfit.
If success is to be reached through the
me of labor saving implements, let us
have every one of these implements on
exhibition and in practical operation.
If farming can be made more profit
able by attaching the dairy, apiary and
poultry, the raising of horses, cattle,
sheep and hags, let ns have it demon
strated through the attractive display of
all these things upon the grounds, re
membering that the fair is to be a great
and comprehensive school for the in
struction of onr people and the better
ment of our conditions.
“Now, the question comes, “Who is
going to bring all these things to pass?”
Not the State Agricultural Society.
Tho members will lead us^of coarse.
Certainly not the local directory. This
would be impossible. We will lend all
the aid we can to the society, and do
the work assigned os cheerfully and dil
igently, bat we cannot make exhibits.
If the fair is to be a success, the press
and tho people must make it so. If it is
a failure, no man who does not help will
have any right to criticise or to com
plain.
The fair is a public interest; it will be
held for the public good, and, whilst or
ganization is necessary to manage the
details, the people must make the show.
If we had. the money for the purpose,
we do not believe it necessary or desira
ble to send soliciting agents over the
state to arouse and interest the people.
This communication is written sim
ply to awaken public spirit and bring
into touch with the agricultural society
the geuerous patriotism of the people.
If its purpose is accomplished, the press
must take up, at once, aud actively, the
publication of all matter given out about
the progress of the fair; the people in
committees, counties and sections must
organize and go to work cn tho lines to
be indicated iu the forthcoming pre
mium list, and see that they are not left
out of the work undertaken for tho com
mon good.
The object contemplated should not
only command the sympathy and en
dorsement of the public and the press,
but it Should receive the hearty co-op
eration and active aid of every patriotic
citizen of the state.
If it be true that we now have an op
portunity to improve our conditions
along all lines and to make c ur people
more prosperous, surely there is not a
newspaper in all our domain, nor a cit
izen among all our struggling people,
who will not be willing to give the ne
cessary time and effort to make the fair
a magnificent success.
The fair is, in no sense, a local enter
prise. The aid given the agricultural
society by the generous people of this
city is for the commou good, as the
effort is intended to forward every in
tercst of the people and, thereby, help
every citizen of the state. The local
directory has undertaken the work as
signed them as a labor of love, and we
hope to be joined in onr efforts by the
generous patriotism of the press and the
about the fair, and the people will fur
nish the exhibits, I shall be pleased to
be so informed, from time to time, by
post, so that the management may know
what to exp&t and for what to prepare.
