the money raised
And a Creamery Will Bs Built In
Griffin at Once-
At u rimas meeting held in the coun
cil chamber several dajs since, a coin-,
mittee wan appointed to raise $2,500
for the purpose of securing a creamery
for Gridin.
The promoter of the enterprise was
Mr John Wallace, of Algona, lowa,
who represented capitalists of that
state who wished to establish a
creamery in Griffin.
It was explained at the meeting that
our citizens were expected to loan the
Company $2,500, when tb-y would
furnish about $5,000, and bund one of
the most complete plants of its kind in
the country.
Griffin had al! to gain and nothing
to lose, and the committee experienced
but little trouble in securing the mon
ey. It has all been rais d, and in an
other column will be found tho appli
cation for a charter.
Work will commence on the build
ing in a few days, and it will be push
ed rapidly to completion, and Griffin
will soon have one of the most thor
oughly equipped creameries in the
country.
Mr. Wallace telegraphed today and
secured ono of the best butler makers
io lowa, who will have charge of the
department.
Griffin is to be congratulated in se
curing this enterprise, which means
so much to the farmers of this section,
as well as to our merchants
The Tammany Dinner-
It was the expectation that Mr, Au
gustus Van Wyck, the principal speak
er at the Jeffersonian dinner of the
Democratic Club of New York,* would
outline the policy of the anti-Bryan
Democrats in bis speech last night
but if he did so he so completely cov
ered it up in bis remarks that its pres
ence was not generally suspected Mr.
Van Wyck was the Democratic candi
date for Governor of New York last
fall and it has been said that his name
will be presented to the Democratic
national convention next year as a
candidate for the nomination for Pres
ident.
There is nothing in Mr. Van Wyck’s
speech that is calculated to attract
special attention or to excite comment.
His subject was “American Com
merce,” and what be said about it was
good He also had a great deal to say
about trusts —a good deal in condem
nation of them. He is opposed to
alliance with Gt eat Britain, not because
he has anything against that nation,
but because he thinks it advisable for
this country to keep clear of alliances
with other nations, being plenty strong
enough to fight its own battles and
there being neither honor nor profit in
helping other nations to fight their
battles.
Mr. Van Wyck thinks it is better
for the party to aim to prevent evils'
which threaten the country than to
neglect these evils in the selfish desire
for party success Another thing that
Mr. Van Wyck believes in is home rule
for cities. Mr. Croker said something
about that some time ago, and there
is every reason to think that Mr Van
Wyck is in harmony with Mr. Croker
on most public questions.
The speech, taken altogether, is a
very good one, but it doesn’t seem to
have been made with the idea that the
author of it is the leader of a faction
and may be a candidate for the presi
dential nomination o’ his party.—Sa

DEATH OF MAJOR HORNE
n A Prominent Georgian Died in Dalton
This Morning
The many friends in this city and
-• throughout the state, will learn with
) I regret of the death of Major John U.
j Horne, who died today at the home of
his son, Mr. Pearce Horne, at Dalton,
j Ga
, His remains will be brought here
t for burial tomorrow morning when
i they will be laid beside his noble wife
who died some years ago Major
Horne was a splendid type of the old
i time southern gentleman—was digni
-1 Ged, courteous, tender hearted and
I brave. His manner was the reflex of
bis character ami wore the dignity of
recognized position, the simplicity of
; conscious independence and the suav
ity of kindly emotion.
Major Horne occupied a number of
positions of honor and was tho contem
porary and friend of many of the dia
tiuguished men of Georgia He was
-about 87 years of age when he died,
and was a member of the Episcopal
church.
He was a lawyer when a young man
and was elected to the office of Solid*
tor Genera] of the Chattabooche cir
cuit on November 15,1835; was secre
tary of the executive office of the state
under both Governors McDonald and
Crawford, from 1839 to 1847.
He was a gallant soldier in the In
dian war in Florida; was a highly ed
ucated and polished gentleman. Few
men iu Georgia bad a stronger j erson
ality and individuality of character,
than did Major Horne—and few have
left so deep an impression on the
hearts and minds of men as did be.
He lived an upright, noble, generous
and honorable life. He died loved,
honored, respected and regretted.
He was my friend, and I loved and
honored him. “He was the best con
ditioned and unwearied spirit in doing
courtesies.” “And one in whom the
ancient Roman honor as well ap
peared as any that draws breath in
Italy.”
Peace to the ashes of this noble
hearted and true Southern gentleman.

Remarkable Rescue.
Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield,
111 , makes the statement that she
caught cold, which settled on her
lungs; she was treated for a mcmMi by
her family physician, but grew worse.
He told her she was a hopeless victim
of consumption, and that no medicine
could cure her. Her druggist sug
gested Dr. King’s New Discovery for
consumption ; she bought a bottle and
to her delight found herself benefitted
from first dose. She continued its use
and after taking six bottle, found her
self sound and well; now does her own
houses irk, and is as well as she ever
was I .ee trial bottles of this Great

There Muy Be n Sea Serpent.
Modern deep sea explorations formed the
subject of an Interesting lecture given at
the McKendree Methodist Episcopal
church recently by C. 11. Townsend, who,
as a member of the United States fish
commission, has made a number of trips
in the Atlantic and in the Pacific oceans
on the steamship Albatross.
Mr. Townsend spoke at some length ot
the fabulous sea serpents. If you would
call them sea monsters, he said, ho would
by no means dispute tho possibility of
their existence. Dredging at great depths
bad resulted in the finding of many species
which the naturalist had classed as ex
tinct. All of these had been small ani
mals, ns present methods had not develop
ed so as to obtain the larger ones. Now, it
is known that in prehistoric times many
sea monsters existed, and while these are
supposedly extinct Mr. Townsend consid
ers it by no means improbable that some
of them are still living in great depths.
Once Hi awhile perhaps one of them might
come to the surface, and in this manner
the fabulous stories about sea serpents,
which most people laugh at, could be ex
plained as correct.—Washington Post.

GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 17, 1899.
SAM HOSE STILL FREE
i He Hag So Far Outwitted the Possei
Searching for Him.
I Sam Hose, the negro who murdered
i Mr. Alfred Cranford, and then assault
ed hie wife, lael Wednesday night at
f Palmetto, hae bo far.escaped the large
, number of determined men who are
looking for him, ami is uti'l a fugitive'
> No crime committed in Georgia in
i years hae aroused such just indigna
tion, and no criminal wan eve t puretied
■ by such a body of determined mem
who have sworn to keep up the search
until the brute is arrested and pays
the penalty of bis crime in as horrible
a death as the human mind can con*
coct.
The interest in this terrible crime is
intense in Griffin, and especially so
since it has been rumored that Hose
was in thißsection.
Since last Friday, partita have been
leaving Griffin daily, going in differ
ent diretions. Whenever a report came
that Hose had been located, another
posse would form and hasten to the
place designated.
Every hour some footsore and weary
man will return from a fruitless search
He does not come heme and give np
in despair, but to send others to take
the places of those who are forced by
exhaustion to give up the chase.
So determined are the people of
Middle Georgia to capture this bruto
that no one will entertain a doubt as
to the final result of the chase—they
only regret the delay
A message was received here last
night from Milner, stating that Hose
had been located near that vibage, and
asked that a posse come down and as
sist in his capture, The appeal was
responded to promptly, aud in a short
time over thirty men were enroute to
Mik,er. There they were joined by a
large crowd from Barnesville, but after
another long and fruitless search, the
men were convinced that Hose was
not in that section, and returned to
their homes.
The latest report is that Hose is
hiding in Cane Creek swamp, near
Woodbury, and if the negro is in that
neighborhood be will certain'y be cap
tured soon.

LAWTON RETURNS TO MANILA
Insurgents Have Been Gathering
About the City Recently.
Manila, April 17—Major General
Lawton's expedition to the Laguna de
Bay district re-embarked last evening,
anchored for the night at the head
of the River I’asig and reached
Manila thia morning, bringing all
the men and the captured insurgent
boats.
Its objects, namely, the capture of
the insurgents’ boats and the distribu
tion of the proclamation, emphasized
by a lesson of American power
throughout the lake region have been
attained. Gen, Lawton immediately
began preparation for an important I
expedition on land
There hae been no fighting in the
lake for three days
During the absence of tho expedi
tion the 'neurgentß have been con
centrating at the northern end of the
lake, near l*a«ig, and the American
scouts report that several thousand
are already there.
Two hundred and fifty Chinamen
from Santa Cruz have arrived here.
They left the town owing to their fear
that the rebels on r<-entering it would
wreak vengeance upon them for favor
irig the Americans.
