THE EVENING CALL.
. Vol. X. No. 243
A NEW ENTERPRISE
A Shoe Factory May Be Built In
Griffin Soon.
L the money td men of Griffin will
display the’r usual enterprising spirit,
. ili> r m mtifmjturiug concern will
icated hero before very l*ng.
It is true that nearly If 350,000 of
local capital ha* been invested in cot
ton mills during the past year, still
there is ample money for the estab
lishment of another enterprise of a
few thousand dollars capital.
Mr. D. M. Wilson, of Waycross, is
spending a few days here, and if he
receives sufficient encouragement, he
will establish a large shoe factory in
Griffin. He is favorably impressed
with the city, and is anxious to locate
his plant here.
He has ample machinery of the
most improved kind, to make from 300
to 500 pairs of shoes daily. He makes
over twenty-live styles'of shoes, rang
ing in price from 75 cents to $2 25,
giving employment to about 100
hands.
The only hope of Griffin’s ever be
coming a large city lies in the build
ing of manufacturing enterprises, and
we hope the moneyed men will make
an effort to secure this factory, which
Mr. Wilson will locate either here or
in Atlanta.
RACE WAR*THREATENED.
Indications of Trouble Between Ne
groe* and Spaniards in Cuba
Santiago de Cuba, June 15—A se
rious race war wks threatened between
the Spaniards and negroes today.
Yesterday a fight occurred in a bak
ery and the Spanish proprietor was
killed by his negro assailant The ne
groes gathered today and threatened
to exterminate the Spaniards
The latter assembled in large num
bers to protect themselves. Both sides
are armed, but the arrival of the police
prevented bloodshed.
The city was placarded last night
with circulars calling on the Cubans
to expel the Americans and Spaniards
June 24th.
A Strange Occurrence.
An honored member of the Ken
tucky colony in New York city was
rading his county paper the other
evening after the cares and burdens of
the day, while his wife sat near him
engaged upon her needlework and
evidently thinking of mother, home
and friends, says the New York Sun.
■•Well,” said the husband, Icoking
up from bis reading, “that is really
one of the most remarkable occur
rences I ever beard of. Indeed, it
seems incredible.’’
“What is it?” inquired the wife with
out stopping her work.
‘ Listen to what this says,” and be
read as follows :
“ 'George Harp of Fayette county,
while visiting his aor:-in-law in Madi
son county, mistook carbolic acid for
whisky and made a toddy of it, which
he drank, and died from its (-fleets a
lew minutes later.”
“I don’t see anything sis astonishing
in it,” commented bis wife “People
are making mistakes like that almost
every day ”
“But, he mistook it fur whisky, my
dear ”
“Well he ha 1 to mistake it for soma
tiling. He wouldn’t have taken it on
its own account, would he?”
’ No,” lie halted, ' but yon don’t set m
to understand, my dear,” and there
wm a shade of annoyance in his tone.
“I do,”she answered, slightly nettled
at his insinuation. “I don't think I'm
any stupider than some other mem*
here of this family.”
What she might have said further
or what he might have said will never
be known, (or her eyes fell upon the
bead of the paper in his hand and she
•topped.
“Ob, Harry,” she exclaimed, “why
didn’t you say you were reading from
• Kentuck paper? And to think too.
that he made a toddy out of it! I m
tltnoat glad we live in New York,
aren’t you?”
Mr. 11. A. Pass, Bowman, Ga., writes:
"One of my children was very delicate
and we despaired of raising it. For
months my wife and I could hardly get
1 night’s rest until we began the use of
I itts' Carminative. We found great re
lief from the first bottle.” Pitts’ Carmina
l>ve acts promptly and cures permanent
ly' It is pleasant to the taste, and children
it without coaxing. It is free from
,n jurious drugs and chemicals.
THE FRUIT GROWERS
r j Ask the Co-operation of the State
Horticultural Society.
1 The Georgia Fruit Growers' Aesoci-
• ation met in called session nt the Brown
• house yesterday with a good attend
ance of the representative fruit growers
‘ of the state present.
President Dudley M. Hughes of
1 Danville presided After calling the
• meeting to order, President Hughes
1 stated the object of the meeting, which
was to hear the reports of committees,
1 adopt by-laws and discuss rates.
1 The business transacted was the re
: port of the committee on by-laws, who
submitted by-laws that had been pre
pared. These were adopted and the
secretary was instructed to have 1,000
copies printed and mailed to the fruit
' growers of the state. This committee
1 consisted of D. M. Hughes, E. A. Rosa,
John C. Cunningham and J. B. James,
The annual dues of the association
were fixed at sl.
A resolution that the executive com
mittee, consisting of J. M. Stubbs. J.
B. James, G. F. Gober, John D. Cun
ningham and Mr. Hoffman, meet the
State Horticultural Society at Tallulah
Falls in August for the purpose of
getting their co-operation in an effort
to get a reduction of rates on fruit,
refrigeration, etc., was adopted.
The question of rates was then diss
cussed at considerable length by Col.
Hughes, Dr. Flewellyn, Mr. John D,
Cunningham and others. Nothing
definite was done, however, in regard
to rates beyond the sending of the
committee to confer with the State
Horticultural Society.
At 1 o’clock the meeting adjourned,
subject to the call of the chairman

"Apropos of the hardships of our
boys in Cuba,” said an officer who saw
a good deal of duty ou the island, to a
representative of the New’ Orleans
Timet-Democrat, I’ll tell you a bit of
a story. Shortly after oui tegiment
went ou duty near Santiago, at the
beginning of Wood’s administration
as governor, we began to be able to
take a little better care of ourselves
than we had done throughout the
campaign. One of our captains—l
won’t mention his name, for he’s sure
about this affair—was a great crank
ou the subject of microbes, and took
extraordinary pains to avoid their
society. He had picked up a raw
Cuban cook, and gave him tiie most
explicit orders to boil all the water
used in the mess, no matter where he
got it. ‘Boil everything we drink,’ he
said, ‘o'r I’ll kick your backbone
through the top of your hat.’
"The Cuban promised faithfully,and
obeyed the order to the letter. A week
or so afterwards the captain, while for
aging about town, was presented with
a quart bottle of champagne from one
of the ships. He was overjoyed, aud,
securing a small lump of ice, hustled
back to camp and turned over his
priza to his cook. ‘I want yon to get
up something t xtia good today,’ said
he, 'for I’m going to ask a few friends
to dinner to help drink this wjne.’ At
the appointed hour the party assem
bled, and after serving a •■epast of
stewed beef and sweet potatoes, the
cook stalked in, carrying a steaming
saucepan half full of a muddi-yellow
liquid. ‘What in thunder is ihat?’
asked the captain ‘1 hat's the wine,
ssnor,’ replied the Cuban gravely ‘I
boil ’im good deal, an’ ’e mo-’ all go’
way ’ The guests roared with Lug! s
ter, and the captain was so thunder
struck be couldn’t any a word He
subsequently recovered himself suffi-
1 ciently to grab a cleaning rod and run
the Cuban nearly half a mile. .Vler
that, all anybody had to do to get a
t fight was to say ‘boiled champagne.’
When I left the wound still rankled.”

In Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally- laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
•
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.

remedy are obtained from senna and

known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only-. In order to get its beneficial
