Excursion Was Called Off
The mucb-talked-of negro excur
sion from Atlanta to Columbus, which
was booked for last Saturday night,
did not materialize The excitement
at Palmetto, due to the many wild sto
ries about the intentions of someof the
negroes aboard, resulted in the affair
being called off The Columbus offi
cials of the Central railroad received a
telegram from Atlanta yesterday after
noon stating that the excursion had
been abandoned.
It wus not generally know last night
that the affair had been called i IT and
quite a crowd hung around the depot
to note the arrival of the excursionists
or what was left of them, as the case I
might be. No excursion came, how-I
ever, and it finally became known that |
the train would not c< me.
The people at Palmetto, and other
points along the road had prepared
themselves fully I r any trouble that
might occur, arid had a single drunk
negro fired a pistol from the train a
genera! riot would have been the re
sit.t—Columbus Enquirer Siu,,.

REGARDLESS OF AGE
Th-' kidneys are responsible for more
sickness, suffering, ano deaths than any
othi r organs of the body.
A majority of the ills afflicting people
today is traceable to kidney trouble. It
pervad--3 all classes of society, in all cli
mates, regardless of age, sex or condition.
Tic symptoms of kidney trouble are un
mistal. .bie, such as rheumatism, neuralgia
sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in the back
a desire to urinate often day or night, pro
fuse or scanty supply.
Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine
are signs of clogged kidneys, causing pois
oned and germ-filled blood. Sometimes
the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wast
ing of the kidneys) are found in the urine,
which if neglected will result in Bright’s
Disease, the most dangerous form of kid
ney trouble.
All these symptoms and conditions are
promptly removed under the influence of
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. It has a world
wide reputation for its wonderful cures of
the most distressing cases.
No one need be long without it as it is
so easy to get at any drug store at fifty
cents or one dollar. You can have a sam
