Governor Denies Story.
From Savannah comes a story to
he effect that E. J. Keiffer, a druggist
>f that city, had a rather stormy inter
view wth Governor Candler at the cap
tol the past week, relative to a place
)n the state board of pharmacy. Gov
:rnor Candler denies the allegations in
:he dispatch and says that while a con
versation took place, no such words as
Mr. Keiffer claims were used.
* * *
Georgia Experiment Station.
The board of directors of the Geor
gia experiment station held their regu
ar quarterly meeting the past week,
ransacting the regular routine busi
aeijfs. Every member of tlie board was
present and all were well pleased with
:he work being done on the station.

A delegation of Lumpkin’s promi
nent citizens, were in Cuthbert the
past week to confer with President.
Williams, of the Georgia, Florida and
Alabama railroad, relative to extend
ing his line northward from Cuthbert

Treasurer Paying July Interest.
State Treasurer R. E. Park has been
busy for the last day or two paying
the July interest on the state’s bond
ed debt. All of the checks have been
sent out in payments of-the interest on
the registered bond’s and the coupons
are coming in rapidly in exchange for
the state’s cash.
Captain Park says that those hold
ing coupons can just as well have them
cashed at their local banks, thereby
avoiding trouble or danger in sending
them to Atlanta. The coupons are pay
able in New York, and there is no rea
son. he says, why they should not be
cashed at par at any bank. The total
of the July interest paid out amounts
to about $160,000.

Govermnent May Investigate.
The United States government will
very likely be appealed to on account
of the wholesale destruction of t’ne cat
fish and carp in the Ocmulgee just be
low Macon.
People living along the banks of
the river say that the dead fish float
down the stream in car load quantifies
and the stench is unbearable. The
cause of the trouble is only conjec
tural.
Some have said it must be due to
the placing of lime in the Stream for
the purpose of killing a few fish, and
the effect is worse than was intended.
Others say it is due to poisonous sew
erage that dumps, into the r ver. The
authorities are being urged to take, a
hand and see if a remedy cannot tie
found. fl- H
Hope For Depot Goes Glimmering.
The members of the state dc pot com
mittee are now fully satisfied" that they
will be unable to buikl anew passen
ger depot on the state’s property in At
lanta under the present bill, and so ex
pressed themselves at the meeting
held the past week in the governor’s
office; but they are determined to car
ry the question out to its last analy
sis and to use every means possible to
accomplish the object if such a thing
as success is to be had.
After two hours’ discussion of the
matter the committee decided lo write
letters to the Atlanta city council, tc
the Georgia and Central railroads, and
to President Samuel Spencer, of the
Southern, asking for certain definite
and specific replies to certain definite
and specific questions, and the rep.ies,
it is supposed, will settle the matter
one way or another without further
delay.

Home Will Soon be Ready.
According to the expectations of the
board of trustees, the Conf.'derate Sol
diers’ Home, at Atlanta, will be com
pleted by August 15th.
The board held an important meet
ing at the state library the past week
at which quarterly reports were re
.ceh*d from the president, secretary,
treasurer, superintendent, surgeon and
chaplain, and a so a report from the
investigating committee showing a
thorough examination into conditions
at the heme and of its workings, and
especially a thorough investigation of
the status of each of the inmates. The
committee recommended that some of
the inmates be required to produce fur
ther proof of their right to enjoy the
benefits of the home, and the board
ordered that this recommendation be
carried out. A report was also received
from the building committee, showing
good progress, and that the building
would probably be completed by the
middle of next month.
The report of the president con- 1
taiued a full statement of the condi
tions at the home and the operations
of its tic pc: 'incuts since the last meet
ing in January
At the close cf the meeting the com
mittce visited the home in a body
looking ever the building and the farm
all of which were found in a most sat
isfaetory condition.
The pr< sidsnt was Instructed by the
board to officially extend its thanks tc
the generous donors whose gifts have
made the re-erection of the home
possible, and a card to this effect will
shortly be issued by Judge Calhoun. j
