Tie Best He Rest The Test
There ore two kinds of sarsaparilla: The best—-and the
rest. The trouble is they look alike. And when tho rest
dress like the best who's to tell them apart ? Well, ” the treo
is known by its fruit.” That’s an old test and a safe one.
And the taller the treo the deeper the root. That's another
test. What’s tho root,—the record of those sarsaparilla*V
The one with the deepest root is Ayer’s. The one with the
richest fruit; that too is Ayer’s. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla has
a record of half a century of cures; a record of many medals
and awards, culminating in the medal of the Chicago World’s
Fair, which, admitting Avcr’s Sarsaparilla as the best,—
shut its doors against the rest. That was greater honor
than the medal, to be the only sarsaparilla admitted as an
exhibit at the World’s Fair. If you want to get the best
sarsaparilla of your druggist, here’s an infallible rule: Ask
for Hie best and you Tl get Ayer’s. Ask for Ayer’s aud you ’ll
get the best.

Conley Wants Damages.
What promises to be a sensational
damage suit case was taken up iu the
I' u ;t 0 n superior court Thursday morn
j n g_ Home lively evidence is on tap to
j, () introduced as the case progresses,
j ohll j, Conley, of East Point, is ' sue-
j (1 g several j urties for heavy damages
f or defamation of character. He is
the plaintiff against six well-known cit-
izeUB of Atlanta as defendants, the to¬
tal amount being sued for is $45,000.
The case grew out of the sensational
Conley-Arnold damage suit case of two
years ago. Tbo defendants were wit-
nesses in that cave, and Mr. Conley
now asks for damages for ft defumed
character, he alleging that the parties
swore untrue things about him iu the
Arnold c iso.
The substance of the case is that the
defemleuts in the present case swore
on the stand iu tho Arnold case that
they would not believe Mr. Conley ou
oath. The latter gentleman alleges
that lie is a trulh'ul man and claims
that ho is entitled to recompense f.-r

The railroad companies have begun
using the knife ou the rates of the At¬
lanta exposition. They have an¬
nounced one of the greatest reduc¬
tions yet made by tlm com) nuies in
the south. Tlie rate that they will
offer in a few days is one of the cheap¬
est ever given by transportation com
panics to any exposition in this conn-
trv. The rate was agreed ou at a
meeting of the southern railroads belt!
in Savannah and was given at the re
quest of 1’resident Collier, of the ix
position. exposition opened the rail¬
When tbe
road companies announced that ot
certain days of each "vek they woulo
sell limited ticket# at a very cheap
rate. They announced a scale rate,on.
that differed according to the distune-
traveled by the purchaser, but tin
cheapest rate given wa-more than tni
cents per mile for the round trip.
President Collier wrote the laiiroar
officials that ho felt that there wer.
thousands * f people ia the south wh
would like to see the fair, but weretto-
able to do Sv» on account of the rate
and he wanted them placed so low
that every one could come to tbe fair.
He spaoified the reductions that he
thought would bo aeo'-ptttblo to tho
people aud reoeived responses from
the officers of every line entering the
city that they would agree to the rate.
The rate, as announced, is for dis¬
tances up to 25 miles from Atlanta one
fare for the round trip. From 25
miles to 100 miles the rate is two cents
per mile for tbe round trip, or one
cent per mile traveled, This rote
means that a person living 100 miles
from Atlanta can visit the city and
return home for 32 railroad fare.
From 100 to 250 miles the rate is
one and eight-tentu cents per mile for
(ho round trip or slightly mmo than
three-fourth of a cont per mile trav¬
eled. Under this rate a person living
200 miles from Atlanta can go and
return home for $3.60.
For distances of 250 to 350 miles the
rate is one aud a bulf cents for tho
round trip or throe quarters of a cent
per mile traveled.
Under this rate a ticket from Wash¬
ington to Atlanta and return can be
purchased for $8 50. From Savannah
to Atlanta and return it con be pur¬
chased for $1.50.
Those tickets will be put on sale on
the 19th instant and the sale will con¬
tinue until the 25th. Tbe tickets will
bo good for five days and the directors
expect that they will have thousands
of people present during the cheap rate
days. President
In securing these rates
Collier and the members of the amuse¬
ments and concessions committee have
done a groat work for tbo exposition.
KEEPER TURNER REPLIES
To the Reports Made by the Legisla¬
tive Committees.
Tbe reports of tbo legislative com¬
mittees us to the condition of things in
Ihe different penitentiary camps have
created a sensation. Tbe wholesale
condemnation of tbo lease system was,
of course, not unexpected, because the
feeling in Georgia is strongly against
that system, and it seems to be popu¬
lar with men in public life to But go the on
record just now agaiust it.
attucks ou tho management of the pen¬
itentiary department, direct aud im¬
plied, wore uot expected. They have
called forth from Judge Turner, the
principal keeper of the penitentiary, the a
strong reply, in which he shows
inconsistencies of the two reports as
compared with each other, aud shows
this in a very striking way.
Tlie judge takes occasion also to deny
absolutely some of the statements
made in these reports. Ilo says that
but two members of tho senate com¬
mittee visited his office and that tho
members of tho legislature who made
the report had not made any study
whatever of tho work that was being
done by tbe penitentinry department
nor had investigated the law regulat¬
ing that department.
The judge winds up his interview
with a suggestion that an effort to
make political capital out of the peni¬
tentiary conditions seems to have in¬
spired this attack to a greater or a less
degree.
STORMS OFF HAT ( KRAS.
The President and Ills Parly in a
Dangerous Position.
A dispatch from Norfolk, Vo., states
that President Cleveland aud his party
bnd nn exceedingly rough t me of it
Tuesday aud were unable to occupy
the blinds provided for them nt Cape
Channel near flatteras. Tbe Violet is
in an exceedingly dangerous position,
although no fears are eutertained.
All day long a terriflo storm raged
about Hatterns, the wind blowing from
the north and northwest and at the
rate of 56 miles an hour. In fact, all
along the coast it has blown at a
ve-iooity of from 50 to 60 miles nn
hour. Tuesday night tho storm wus
central near Hatterns.
It bus beeu learned that reqaests
have beeu made of nil tho government
employes along the coast to make no
report to tbe outside world of the
movements of tho presidential party,
and the only news obtainable is from
masters of tho incoming vessels.
One thing is certain, not a line has
passed over the government const tel¬
egraph line concerning the president
or his party.

Some Lilies Are .Active.
Bradstreet’s report for the past week
says: exception of mild weather
“With the
at cities in Missouri, Kansas, Nebras¬
ka and Minnesota, colder weather has
stimulated sales of seasonable mer¬
chandise at nearly all points, but only
by coutrust with the preceding weeks.
Wholesale trade is dull, merchants
preferring to reduce stocks at the end
of tho year to make ready for annual
inventories. Iu retail lines there has
been a marked increase in demand.
Irregularity is shown in mercantile
collections, general trade throughout
the country being relatively most sat¬
isfactory in the central Mississippi
valley.
“Bank clearings throughout the
United States this week oggregate
$1,120,000,000, a decrease of 0 per
cent from last week, which is not un¬
usual. As compare! with clearings
for tho second week of December,
ISOf, this week’s aggregate shows an
increase of 10 per cent.
The course of pricis of staples con¬
tinues downward. Lumber remains
steady without particular activity.
Iron anil steel continue what appears
to be a regular weekly decrease, al¬
though reductions this week are frac¬
tional.
“The only advance in quotations re¬
corded was among the more important
staples petroleum, coffee and cotton.
Philadelphia textile plants running on
full time are those at work on orders
for immediate delivery. Philadelphia
manufacturers of morocco huve begun
running on short time. There are 313
business failures reported throughout
the United States this week, compared
with 315 last week, 385 in the like
week a year ago, 337 two years ago
and as contrasted with 208 iu the sec¬
ond week of December, 1802.
“Among more conspicuous trade
features is the' disappointing Christ¬
mas trado at several cities; .miller
volume of business, except iu Christ¬
mas goods, at Chicago; increased dis¬
tribution of heavier textiles, shoes and
rubber goods at St. Louis, and con¬
tinued depression in certaiu lines at
Kansas City, Omaha and Minneapolis
because of mild weather.
“Among southern cities the single
instance of improvement is reported
from Birmingham, although most dis¬
tributing centers expect an increased
demand after January 1st. Cotton re¬
ceipts aro unusually small at aim ist
all southern points, except at New Or¬
leans, where they nre liberal. Gal ves¬
ton reports the Christmas trado smaller
than one year ago.”
“PATRIOTS OF AMERICA.”
Mr. Harvey Explains tlie Details of
the New Organization.
W, H. Ilnrvoy has given out a state¬
ment explaining the dotails of his new
order, the “Patriots of America.”
Mr. Harvey fays the cause of free sil¬
ver is to be enlarged through the
agency of a new political organization.
This form of waging war upon the
liugle gold standard forces is his own
idea. Mr. Harvey, assisted by several
public men, has placed the plan in
working form by starting an organiza¬
tion kuown ns the “Patriots of Ameri¬
ca.’’ With the parent society in Chica¬
go and thousands of others in every
state and territory in the union, it is
Mr. Harvey’s intention to make free
silver a reality and a vital issue in the
next national campaign.
“While free silver is tho piece de-
resistance of tho organization,” Mr.
Harvey say--, “It is uot tho sole ono.
Back of it is tho spirit of humanity
which looks to the accomplishment of
better government, the elimination of
personal selfishness from the nets of
private citizens and public officials.
The new order assumes the existence
of evil influence which is consciously
or unconsciously exerted by wealthy
corporations and individuals upou
government, executives, legislatures
and courts. To successfully combat
this influence the society will endeavor
to arouse in the public brenst the latent
fire of patriotism and love for hurnan-
by- Patriots Amer¬
“The order of tho of
ica, with the national headquarters in
the Fort Dearborn building, Chicago,
has issued ft prospectus in book form
giving the objects of th ■ order nnd the
reasons which have eausjd the organi¬
zation of such a in ivemeut. Its na¬
tional officers are a first national pa¬
triot, a national recorder mid a na¬
tional treasurer. It also provides for
a first state patriot iu each state who
constiIut> s a congres' of patriots.
There is also to ho a first patriot for
each county. The plan3 provide for
opening lodges throughout the United
States and all power is derived from
the poople voting iu their lodges.
“It is a non-partisan organization
and will put no candidates iu the
field,” continued Mr. Harvey.
FORCED lO THE WALL.
James Pace, Capitalist of Riclimoud
Assigns.
Jsines B. Face,bunker aud capitalist,
of Richmond, Va., has made an assign¬
ment. The deed, in which Mrs. Pace
unites, conveys al! of his real and per¬
sonal property, including stocks nnd
bonds, to Judge George L. Christian
and Mr. J. J. Montage, ns trustees for
the benefit of his creditors.
The liabilities arc placed at about
3900,000. The assets are not given,
but are thought by those acquainted
with Mr. Paces's affairs to be ample to
meet all of his obligations and leave a
very considerable balance.
