Then he put in a freshly baited hook,

found that he could catch troat with-

Druggists of Atlanta who have no
city license for selling whiskey cannot
sell it even to fill a prescription. Such
was tho ruling of Judge Andy Cal¬
houn, city recorder, in tho case of
Goldsmith k Edmonson, druggists,
who appeared as defendants in police
court charged with retailing spirituous
and malt liquors without a license.
Tho ease was an unusual one. In fact
it is said to he the first of tho kind
brought before the recorder.

The grand old state of Georgia—
the Empire State of (ho South—is
making u wonderful exhibit in the
state building, Rich iu resources nud
teeming with minerals aud vast water
supplies, she has been placed in tbo
front rank of civilization and progress
among the states of tho world. Very
little, indeed, does a Georgian know
of his state tvho believes there ih an-
other place in all tlio world that is ns
full of promise and as rich in realiza¬
tion. In tlio state building has beeu
urranged an exhibit that will compare
most, favorably with any that is to be
found on the grounds.
Two of tho greatest daily newspa¬
pers iu this country now have in prepa¬
ration special editions illustrative and
descriptive of tho Atlanta exposition.
Those are the Now York Herald and
the Chicago Inter-Ocean, representing
(lie eastern and western sections of
this great country. Tho combined
circulation of thrso two special edi¬
tions will be enormous and tho result of
this widespread distribution through¬ States
out all sections of the United
and Canada will bo highly beneficial
to the great fair. Both papers have
had special artists and stall'correspond¬
ents on the grounds preparing the
pictures nud descriptive articles neces¬
sary to make these editions complete.
Tho proposed ninety days' races to

tho new Southern Racing Association
have been declared “off" for the son-

Wednesday, ns the association could
not deposit the money for tho purses
ns was required by the jockey club of
New York. It became evident that
Manager Boone did not have the
money with which to pay the purses
and carry on the meet and ho express¬
ed a willingness to transfer the jockey
club license and all his rights in the
racing association to any one who was
willing to carry on the races. The
purses for the first two days' races, ami
amounting to $2,000, nre unpaid
there seems no likelihood at present
(hat they will be paid. Boone has not

State senator Mercer hai resigned

deputy , collector of internal revenue
and the resignation is the result of the
agitation the people have been making
oy er tho idea of men holding state of-
dec and government oflico at the same
time,
i he senator announced that he Lad
submitted his resignation to Collector
Trammell to tuko effect tho 20th of
this month. He follows in the foot-
steps of Hon. William Harrison, of
Quitman, and Hon, John Barnes, of
Richmond, and recognizes the justice
of the idea that there should bo no
mch duplication iu office holding as
has been complained of.
This leaves only Mr. Rockwell, of
Chatham, and .Mr. Tatum, of Troup,
who are drawing salaries from tho
government while retaining their
membership in tho Georgia legisla- their
tore. It is claimed for them that
positions are not offices and that they
have been engaged only in some spe-
oial work for tho federal government;
but those who have, been agitating tho
subject tuko tho stand that tho priuci-
pie of tho thing is the samo in their
ease as any other utel they ought cer-
tainly to give up one connection or the

Texas to Georgia.
A letter from Mr. A. J. Bose, com-
missioner of agriculture for Texas, has
reached tho office of Commissioner
Nesbitt, in which he gives a gloomy
view as to the outlook for cotton in
that state. There is a silver lining,
iriTM" thinks cotton n; will lmng wk i ten ..... . cents *1 a
pound by the first of January
1 lie crops Which were a ready short,
says Commissioner Bose has been fur-
tber damaged by drought and by leaf
and boll worms, which causes him to
come to the conclusion that this years
crop will not exceed 50 per cent of lust
year s crop, iho total crop for Texa*
I 11 ; 1 " "r"“ 10 " " I’ 1 n“t be more than
7 “ “’I', ? ' 7" 1 1,0 18 a ° ubtful
it it will , be that much.
Mr. Rose sayH be bus advised the
Texas farmers to market their cotton
slowly, as there is no reason if the
crop of 180 4 is exhausted, which is re¬
ported, why they should not get ten
cents a pound for their cotton by tho
first of January. Iio says that he is
convinced that the total crop of cot¬
ton for this year will not be moro
that six million bales, this estimate,
as well ns tho estimate on the Texas
crop bring mado after receiving
special reports from correspondents in
various parts of tho couutry.
Railroad Securities Sold.
The securities of tho Montgomery
and Eufunla railroad sinking fund
went under tho auctioneer’s hammer
at Savannah u day or two ago. They
were sold by. Messr-t, J. McLaughlin
A Bon, and though most of the proper¬
ty was bought iu by Captain H. C.
Cunningham for Messrs. Thomas and
Ryan, several parcels were sold to
outside bidders. T'hirty-fivo first
mortgage bonds of tho Wrightsville
and Tonnille railroad went to Captain
Cunningham for par; $Jt,000 in Ha-
vannah and Western firsts went for
0‘A; 218 shart-s of Central stock wero
bought by Major A. I,. Hnrtridge
I° r > #7,000 iu debentures went to
Captain Cunniugliani at 22; 200
shares of tho capital stock of the
First National bank of Albany were
bought by Captain bank, John A. Davis,
president of that who was on
hand for the purpose, at 120; 250
shares of capital stock in the DeSoto
hotel wero sold to Captain Cunningham
for $57 per share. Notes of tho Milieu
nml Southern Railway Company for
back duo rental on railroad iron
amounting to $5,890, went for $500.
Tho same price was secured for $2,215
in notes of the Wrightsville and Ten-
nil le. About 4,500 tons of railroad
irou, under lease to different branch
railroad lines, brought $1 per ton, be¬
ing bid in for Messrs. Thomas nud
Ryan. The securities -vero in the
hands of the Germania bank, of Ha-
vaunah, which was appointed trustee
for tho fund about two years ago.
History of the Central.
The history of the Central railroad,
which was sold a few days ago, is the
history of steam transportation iu
Georgia. Chartered iu this stato ear¬
ly in tho century, when the growing
commonwealth demanded greater com-
mnuication among the people, its or¬
iginal incorporators were of undecided
whether to dig a series canals be¬
tween tho navigable livers or whether
to venture upon tho “novel and haz¬
ardous” undertaking of building a
railway. Tho governor of Georgia
about this time, actuated by a spirit
of enterprise, tempered with con¬
servatism, advocated the construc¬
tion of canals by tho state and
the cities. It is not then to be won¬
dered at that the charter of tho Cen¬
tral Railroad anil Banking Company of
Georgia gave the company power
either to dig canals or string rail¬
roads. Finally the latter policy pre¬
vailed aud the first superintendent
points with pride to his superior sys¬
tem of “plantiug sleepers Upon on a level
with the ground.” these sleep¬
ers heavy timbers were strung, and
then lateral beams were surmounted
by light laths. Then sprung the flat
iron, and finally the “T” rail, which
worked such revolution in the traas-
portation of the world. The original
survey of a rail lino between Savannah
and Macon was made in 1857. The
expense of this preliminary road was
borne by the city of Savannah.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A Good Law.
The New York law in regard to the
maintenance of secrecy by telephone
employes as to messages passing over
the wires went into effect September
1st. It requires the staff of telephone
companies to be as secretive regarding
the nature of their business as are the
operatives who handlo telegraphic
messages. A person who either
wrongfully obtains or attempts to ob¬
tain any knowledge of a telegraphic or
telephonic message by connivance with
a clerk, operator, messenger or other
employe of a telegraph or telephone
company, or, being such operator or
other employe wilfully divulges to
anyone but tho person for whom it was
intended the contents or the nature of
a telegraphic or telephonic message in-
trusted to him for transmission or de-
livery, or of which contents he may
in any way have become possessed, is
punished by a tine of .$1,000 or six
months’ imprisonment, or both. The
Bame penalty attaches to neglect or
refusal to transmit or deliver messages,
except when they are intended for ille-
gal purposes. Long distance telephone
lines are being so rapidly extended
and the substitution of the telephonic
for the telegraphic message that such
an excellent protection as tho New
York law provides should be univer¬
sally provided. The telephone com¬
panies would do wisely iu promoting
the adoption of such law in every
state where their lines extend.

and to know just what to get and WHERE TO
GET IT, is why the Lovell Arms Co. put out
their New Mammoth Catalogue. It will tell you
lots of things you knew before—lots that you
didn’t know. It’s a sure money saver for a
bargain hunter. It says nothing about a few
Second-hand Bicycles, but they are bargains
too and should be applied for at once.

The doctors teH us, now-a-days, that disease e-erms
are everywhere; in the air, in the water, in our' food
clothes, money; that they get into our bodies, live
there, turn e and grow.it they find anything to thrive on.
Consumption is the destruction of lung-tissue bv
germs where the Jung ^ too weak to conquer them.
Ihe remedy is strength vital force.
^ ».1 1.UlSion, with hypophosphites, means the
adjustment fighting of San-' strength to overcome germ-fife,
h is mo germ with ihe odds in our favor.
These tinv little ( i rops ol iat-tood make their wav
into the system and re-fresh and re-invigorate it.
Whether you succeed with it or not depends on how*
.good a start the germs had, ami how carefully vou can
live. The shortest way to health is the patient one.
The gain is often slow. •

Economy.
It is a duty to be economical. At
the great feeding of the 5,000 from
bread, miraculously furnished, the
Christ commanded that all the frag¬
ments be saved. He was more careful
than many a servaut who will throw
away slices of good bread and many B
slatternly housekeeper who will let
bread mould, rather than take caro of
it, although, tho household provider in
may be breaking his back and heart
trying to keep the wolf from the door;
but the Lord of all w ho could produce saved
bread by the ton with a prayer,
all the pieces. Eoonomy is a duty, a
very important duty; it should be
taught to all and bo practiced by all.
