MAT NOT SEE SERVICE
Colonel Candler’s Regiment May Be
Mustered Out Soon-
Tbe Third Georgia regiment, Col.
John 8. Candler, commanding; may
not see service in tbe field if a report
current at Washington be tru*.
A special to tbe New York Journal
from Washington slates that all of tbo
troops obtained under the last call will
be mustered out of service witbio a
month’s time.
The special is as follows:
“Tbe mustering out of all the sol
diers under the third call will be be
gun within the next thirty days. Sev
enty thousand men will be sent to.
their homes. The practice adopted
after the civil war will be followed.
The soldiers will be sent to the places
whore they enlisted, and from there
will be given transportation to their
homes. All the definite arrsngementa
for this reduction will be completed
within the next week unless the close
of tbe war should be further poet*
pound.
“An army of 100,000 in addition to
the regular army, however, is to be
maintained for an unlimited period
after peace has been declared. At the
war department today it was stated
that this number of volunteers will be
kept in service, and the statement is
in line with the story siready printed
exclusively in the Journal. Tbe vol
unteers will be needed for service in
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines.
“Tbe sdministration is not yet as
sured of tbe attitude of tbe insurgents
after an agreement for peace has been
reached."
Bemarkable Bescue.
Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield Jll.,
makes tbe statement that she caught
cold, which settled on her lunge; she
was treated for a month by her family
physician, but grew worse. He told
her she was a hopeless victim of con
sumption and that no medicine could
cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consump
tion ; she bought a bottle and to her
delight found herself benefited from
first dose. She continued its use and
after taking six bottles, found herself
sound and well; now does her own
housework and is as well as she ever
was. Free trial bottles of this Great
Discovery at Carlisle A Ward and J.

Language of Philippines.
The tongue spoken by all but a few
of tbe dwellers of tbe Philippine Ar
chipelago has been the subject of a
great deal of curious speculation as
well as scientific research. Conserva
tive philology and ethnology ascribe
to the language and to tbe untold
millions of men and women who use
it an origin almost undoubtedly Ma
layan.
Tbe language of tbe archipelago
divides into innumerable local dialects,
of which vocabularies of about thirty
five have been written down.
Every dialect is dim with an infinity
of idioms, and the technical and pet
words of Mussulman and Christian
propagandists, Japanese and Chinese
castaways, Negrillo wanderers and
Negrilla sweethearts, Celestial mer
chants and Spanish Dons hi.ve been
mixed as occasion offered.
Os thesj dialects the most impor
tant is tbe Tagaloc. It u spoken by
1,500,000 Tagais in Luzon and tbe ad
jacent islands. I'en thousand girls
have been often beard chattering Ta
galoe all at once in a Manila tobacco
factory. .
Tbe word tagal means a native; ta
gala, a native woman ; zagala, a lady;
dagala, a girl; babaque, a native
dress, to wear which is to be a native.
Luzon is said to be from losong, a
primitive rice mill, kept in every
house. Cavite is Cavit, tbe “hook,”
and not from tbe Latin cave, “be
ware.” Manila, which has given name
to a valuable textile fibre, and in some
places to the peanut, was manilad,
“the place of the nilad,” a shrub grow
ing wild among the mangroves.
The natives, a musical and poetical
people, are much given to the inton
ing of extemporaneous verses, and
their improvisations are often upon
the gravest themes.
There is a body of poetry consisting
largely of lyrics, wedding songs, ro
manzas, ballads and ditties of all
kinds. These are all set to native
music, wierd and fascinating melodies
that are a flat insult to Western ideas
of tune.

the Fall Election-
....
The state democratic executive com
mittee met in Atlanta Wednesday,and
was called to order by Cbairfoan
dußignon.
Mr dußignon said it was hfirdly
necessary to e<au> that the prime ob
ject of tbe call was to inaugurate the
state campaign. He said the com
mittee must decide Whether er not
beadquarters should be opened in At
lanta, and provide for raising funds for
conducting tbe campaign. He sug
gested that a campaign committee be
created to take charge of these affairs.
Hon. Warner Hill, in accordance
with Mr. dußignon’s suggestion,moved
that the chair appoint a campaign
committee, the number to be deter
mined by him.
An amendment that Vice Chairman
Brown name a minority of tbe com
mittee and Chairman dußignon a ma
jority was withdrawn st Mr. Brown’s
request
Mr. Hill’s motion was adopted with
an amendment by Mr. Senford that
Mr. dußignon and Mr. Brown be
chairman and vice chairman of the
campaign committee.
Communications were read from
Gov. Atkinson and Lieut. Col. R. L*
Berner, offering to take the stump for
Candler and democracy. Mr.dußignon
stated that Judge Spencer R. Atkinson
bad also expressed his willingness to
take an active part in tbe campaign.
Hon. R. T. Nesbitt was declared by
the state executive committee to be
the democratic nominee for senator
from the 35th senatorial district.
Mr. J. E. Mozley, who contested Col
Nesbitt’s claim to the nomination,
joined with Col Nesbitt in requesting
tbe committee to take the position of
arbitrator.
The committee’s action was taken
io an executive session which lasted
for two hours. When the result was
announced Mr. Mozley said that he
would obdbrfully abide by the decision
and support Col. Nesbitt for senator.
At 1:45 p. m. the executive commit
tee adjourned subject to the call of
tbe chairman.
An important part of tbe commit
tee's work was the decision to have a
campaign committee to take charge of
tbe party’s fight in -the fall election.
Mr. dußignon will appoint the com
mittee some time before August 15.
He is to decide upon the number rj
members.

Not Unwilling Soldiers-
Tbe Washington correspondent of
the New York Herald does tbe United
States volunteer regiments now on
their way to Santiago to do garrison
duty there, a grave injustice. He says
that these regiments, which, when not
needed, posed as immunes, are now
seemingly unwilling to expose them
selves in the Cuban climate.
While there are, in fact, no immune
regiments, the United States volunteer
regiments enlisted in the south, and
miscalled immunes except as to their
being accustomed to tbe climate of
the southern states, are ready to go to
Santiago or any other place to which
they may be ordered. Tbe officers and
men of the two regiments now em
barking at this port, repudiate the
suggestion that they have any fear of
either the enemy or climate io Cuba.
No better men ever shouldered mus
kets than those who compose the Third
and Fifth United States—Volunteers.
The Third regiment is virtually a
Georgia regiment. All of its compa
nies were raised in Georgia, except
two. One of these is from t*lorida and
tbe other South Carolina.
Col. Ray, its commander, served in
the Union army in the civil war, and
afterwards in tbe regular army. The
officers of the companies are young
men who entered tbe service to be sol
diers, and we predict that they will
show themselves to be such.
Tbe Fifth regiment is composed of
about the same fine material as tbe
Third, and what is said of one is ap
plicable to the other. The Herat’s
oorreepondent was probably misled by
some outsiders who did not want these
regiments to go to Santiago, but there
never were men more ready to go to
the front and face danger in whatever
shape it may present itself, than tbe
United States volunteers from the
south. They are soldiers, and will go
wherever duty calls.—Savannah News.
