THE EVENING GALL. Vnl. X No. 229 I SPALDING SUPERIOR COURT I Judge Reagan Delivers a Brrom I Charge to trie Grand Jury. I he epccbil t rm of Spalding m;.i ri | or court convened thin rooming at ! I o'clock, Jufige E J. Reagan perilling ; The grand jury organized by elect' ing Capt II II Bass as foremau, am alter the oath had been adniinieterec by Solicitor General Blood worth, J udgt Reagan delivered his charge. Judge Reagan stated that the flp< cis term of court had been called for the purpose of investigating certain viola tions of the law in this section, which had been called to bis attention. He was informed that lawlessness, to a certain extent, prevailed in this count}’, and a baud of men were in timidating labor and threatening em ployers Not only that, some bad re sorted to acts of violence by taking parties from theii homes and whipping them without excuse. It was the paramcun. duty of all governments to protect their citizins in their lives or propeity, while plying their trade, or engaging in any legiti mate business. Without that protec tion men may be deprived of means of making a living, and result in ths prostration of all business. The laws of Georgia offered ample protection to every citizen, penalties were prescribed for t ach offense, and when enforced the law was a protec tion to all. Every citizen who is law abiding and is in any legitimate business has a right to engage in it without interfer ence, whether he be a millionaire in bis mansion or the humblest citizen in his hovel. It was the duty of every law abiding citizen to see that all law lessness is suppressed, and be charged the jury to investigate the matter thoroughly. Ample provision is made for the punishment of such lawless acts, and if the guilty parties are punished it will have a salutary effect upon the community. There is no crime more demoraliz ing or one which will work more harm than for a band to organize to prevent any one from engaging in his avoca tion or from employing laborers to carry on bis business. It was the duty of the grand jury to indict such per sons, if they could secure evidence sufficient to warrant their doing so. The court bad been informed that mobs had gathered and taken parties from their homes and whipped them The act was so repulsive as to make it unnecessary to say anything about enforcing this law. No matter how low or humble a citizen may be, the law protects him in the sanctity of hi* home and if persons had been taken therefrom, as he had been informed, it was the duty of the grand jury to investigate the matter thoroughly. The judge also charged the jury in reference to furnishing liquor to minors. It is unlawful to give, sell or furnish whiskey to minors in any way, and if they learn of any one having violated this law it would be their duty to indict the offenders Ihe charge of Judge Reagan was a very strong one, and when he closed the jury went to their room and began an investigation into the lawlessness that has reigned in this section recently. —♦ CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

Prof. J. 11. Morris, ot Owl Hollow, was here this morning, wearing a 13xlh| smile. Anyway, it was an unusual look that accompanied him. Pitts’ Carmina'ive is pleasant to the taste, acts promptly, and never fails to give satisfaction. It carries children over the critical time of teething, and is the friend ot anxious mothers and puny chil dren. A few doses will demonstrate its value. E. H. Dorsey, Athens, Ga., writes: ’I consider it the best medicine I have ev er used in my family. It does all you C for it, and even more.” - VAUGHN VOICIN’GS- cr __ j Vacugn, May 30,-Mrs. \V. T.

When Nature Needs assistance it may be best to render it promptly, but one should remember to use even the most perfect remedies only I when needed. The best and most simple 1 and gentle remedy is the Syrup of Figs, • manufactured by the California Fig Syrup i Co. Raise More Live Stock- No one, the Southern farmer least of all, will dispute the statement that live stock has had more iodo with the general improvement of Southern farms than any other thing, says an exchange. The Southern farmer, having learned his bard lesson, is now headed the right way. It is admitted that the care of live stock requires the constant attention of some one, and that one is pretty closely lied to the faim. This plan is not in harmony with the general inclination to make the farm produce crops that will not require constant career at least super vision. What would be thought of a merchant who kept on his shelves goods suitable for only one or two seasons of the year? And yet many farmers are working on this same line. The general disinclination to keep stock is due partly to the fact that good returns are received from grains, fruits, hay and the like, and to some extent because stock raising is not generally understood. Stock keeping means steady and fair returns for the outlay, but more than ail, it means the maintenance of soil fertility .which cannot be had in any other way so easily and cheaply. It i* not meant to imply that the use of commercial fertilizers may be done away with en tirely, but their cost will be materially lessoned. Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound nr imperfect 1, ariug. and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous sur faces.

Stories are often told of the way the class of journalists called "liners" regard every event from the standpoint of their own special work. A writer in The Corn hill says that one of them coming home one night discovered a man insensible at his threshold, and, with great presence of mind, without- losing a moment, ho called out to his wife, ‘'Quick, my dear; bring j a light; here’s a paragraph lying on the doorsteps!" As another‘‘liner” was walking along the quays of Dublin a man rushed past him and jumped over the wall into the Liffey. The journalist immediately looked , at his watch. "How provoking!” he ex claimed. It s 6 o’clock, and I’m too late for the last edition of The Evening Mail," and, addressing the suicide struggling in > the water, he added, ‘‘All right, my boy; I’ll give you a good paragraph in the , morning papers. ” C A. & T O n T .A. . ■ Bears the Ths Kind You Have Aiwa VS BGUgfll Signature fl/* Y/ i /?
