JUDGE ROBT. T. DANIEL
EULOGIZED BY THE GRAND COUN-
CIL OF BED MEN- >
WhatH«H*« Done f° r The Order
During the Two Years He Has
Served as Great Incobonee.
Ai the meeting of the Grand Coun
oil of Red Men of the United States in
Indiaoapjlis last Wednesday, the
committee on the state of the order
introduced the following resolution
eulogising the retiring Great Incoho
nee, R. T. Daniel, of this city, which
will be read With interest by every Red
Man in the country :
“When intrusted with the Toma
hawk of authority in the highest tri
banal of the order the recipient thereof
nojdoubt feels the great responsibility
involved. To wield the same in an
impartial and equitable manner re*
quires a keen sense of justice, prn
denoe and forbearance, to the eod
that no interest shall suffer by reason
of incompetence or inability to weave
golden opportunities into 'garlands of
success’ lor the advancement of our
grand old order.
“Some great suns ago, a modest,
unassuming young man knocked at
our outer portals and was admitted to
membership. Impressed with the
simplicity and beauty us our ritualistic
forms and ceremonies and the impor
tance of perpetuating the glorious
lessons taught thereby, which, if prop
i erly learned, secures peace, prosperity,
freedom and happiness to the people
of this 'glorious land of the free’ for all
time to come, he at once, with the
fervor and intensity peculiar to the
people of bis section—the sunny
Southland—the land of flowers, gener
osity, hospitality, modern chivalry
and bravery, entered upon wbat has
proved a glorious career, free from
taint of scandal or breath of suspicion.
Step by step, higher and higher he
has mounted until now he stands firm
and secure upon the topmost rung of
'the ladder of fame.’ And the untried
neophite, who first Donned the green
regalia of the Adoption Degree, is now
clothed in the regalia of his rank, the
broad sash of purple and gold, marks
the Great Incobonee, and the honest
heart of Robert T. Daniel beats be
neath it Nor is this alone the great*
est of hie victories; by his genial dis
position, pleasing personality, love of
fairness and rugged honesty be has
won his way to the hearts and affec
tions of the entire membership io all
sections of our Great Reservation. The
Golden Decorations that adorn his
sash and mark his distinction, proud
and grand though they be, will yield
to the inexorable hand of time, and
that luster dimmed, but friendship,
the brightest gem that adorns the
crown of all the virtues, will never die.
EULOGY or ROBERT T. DANIEL
“By his sacrifices and strict atten*
tion to the duties of his high chief*
taincy, the order has grown, prosper
ed and 'blossomed as the rose’; through
bis individual effort the ‘thorns of
dissension’ have been plucked from
the 'trail of progress/ the tangled
'skeins of confusion’ made straight,
and {chaos reduced to order. His
striking individuality and streugtb of
character have impressed many and
inspired them to greater efforts and
nobler deeds in the name of Freedom,
Friendship and Charity. His coming
has ever been bailed with pleasure, bis
departure with deep regret. His trail
is marked with bright gems of benev
olence and charity; to know him io to
love him and call him friend. Among
all the 'grand warriors’ who have bat
tled for the success of the order, be is
eminently the peer of any. And now
as he is about render the toma
hawk of authority into the hands of
hie worthy successor, we visit the va
rious reservations and pluck therefrom
their choicest blooms, grown in the
How to Look Good-
Good looks are really more than
skin deep, depending entirely on a
healthy condition of all the vital or
gans. If the liver is inactive, jou
have a bilious look ;if your stomach
is disordered, you have a dyspeptic
look ; if your kidneys are affected, you
have a pinched look. Secure good
health, and you will surely have good
looks. “Electric Bitters” is a good
Alterative and Tonic. Acts directly
on the stomach, liver and kidneys,
purifies the blood, cures pimples,
blotches and boils, and gives a good
complexion. Every bottle guaranteed.

honest hearts of loyal Red Men, weave
them into a garland of ‘well wither,’
bound with thr'ties of affection* and
place this tribute ol confidence and
esteem on the brow of as honest, caps
ble, eloquent and worthy a brother as
ever graced the great incobonee's
stump. We trust be may long be
spared to sit around our Great Coun
cil fire and give judicious advice and
wise council; that his future be one
long continued succession of triumphs,
and finally when the'sands of life* run
low, and be stands on the brink of
that 'dark river’ which is but the gate
way to eternal life and never ending
bliss, be may be greeted by the Su
preme Incobonee, who rules all na
tions and kindred of people, with that
sweetest of all encomiums of praise,
Well done I”
A reaotalion adopting . the report
was also passed. It was ordered that
this report be printed and bung in
every wigwam, and that a copy of it
be framed and presented to the past
great incobonee.

BOYCOTTING THE GIRLS-
The Young Hen of Brunswick Resent
Treatment of the Belles-
Thirty-four Brunswick young men,
smarting under the indifference of the
Brunswick girls, while ‘’the soldiers
were “in our midst,” have taken steps
of retaliation. The boys claim that
they, were cruelly neglected by the
girls while the soldiers were here, and
they propose to resent it.
The following declaration, circulat
ed yesterday, is being signed by the
young men of the city. Everyone
approached promptly affixed bis name.
Up to last night 34 names were enroll
ed. The following is the wording ol
the agreement, and fully states the
case:
“We, the undersigned, young men
of Brunswick,' Ga., having heretofore
bad the care of the young ladies of the
city on our hands, paying them every
attention and expending our hard
earned “rocks” on them lavishly, and
in return, with the advent of the sol
diers, having received the “icy eye”
and the “marble heart* 1 and a general
all-round preference shown to the men
with the “brass buttons,” do most bit
terly resent the insult to our dignity,
and feel that if we were not good
enough for the “lassies” while the
soldiers were here we are not good
enough for them now that “The Acre
birds” have flown; and hereby agree,
each and every man of us signing this,
that no responsibility for the future of
these young ladies shall fall to our lot,
and that we will not associate with
them nnder any circumstances what
ever, and will let them “paddle their
own canoe” hereafter. We therefore
form ourselves into the Anti-Girl Club,
and any member violating bis promise
herein made, will be liable to a fine of
SIOO and a ride on a fence rail, and
the letter of the law will be rigidly
enforced.”—Brunswick Call.

iSOTHZB DEATH W DAMP
Benjamin Blum, of Company K, Died
Yesterday Morning-
Wtn. J. Linn, the soldier who was
shot through tbs bead on Wednesday
afternoon and believed to have been
seriously wounded, was thought to bo
some better yesterday, and hopes are
now entertained for bis recovery.
Although he is still under the influ
ence ol chloroform, the doctors can
see some slight changes in hie condi
tion which may result io the better.
At 5 o’clock yesterday morning just
as the bugle sounded lor reveille
those who had been watching over
the sick during the night saw the life
of Ben Blum take its departure.
Blum was a private in Co. K, of Sa
vannah, and had been sick for several
days with dyaiotery, and yesterday
morning ns though the bugle Was cell
ing him too, bis spirit answered not
on this earth, but above. All who
saw it say it was a sad death. Far
away from home and loved ones, yet
begging for them to the last.
His body was sent to Savannah at
9:15 last night accompanied by an
escort from his company who will
bury it in that city today.
The following card of thanks was
asked room for publication in the Call
by the company:
We the committee to procure flow
ers to cover the casket of our comrade,
Corporal Benjamin Blum, who died
this morning at 5:25, desire to thus
publicly express our appreciation of
the courtesies shown by the ladies of
Griffin who have woven wreaths and
fashioned garlands for one that was a
true soldier and a beloved comrade.
At such timerwords may seem mean
ingless, but the entire command of
Company K will ever bold your kind
action in remembrance and your gen
erosity to the dead soldier and stranger
will live in their hearts.

INSTEAD OF EVACUATING
The Insurgents Now Hold a Suburb
of Manila.
New York, Sept. 16.—A dispatch to
The Herald from Manila says:
“The insurgents changed their
plans last night and instead of evacu
ating all the suburbs of the city they
moved from Ermita and Malata to
Santna, where they appear to be con
centrating in strong force.
“It is reported, although it has not
been confirmed, that Aguinaldo has
ordered this place to be held at any
cost. It is more likely a move on the
part cf Pio Pilar to embarrass the dic
tator. The former rebel chief, Isabello
Artacho, who was condemned to death
by Aguinaldo for treachery* in May,
and was reprieved and escaped, is
leading 15,000 men against Agninal
do. Artacho is backed by priests.
“A Jesuit priest has been shot for
persuading rebels to desert Aguinal
do’s cause.
“At the meeting of rebel leaders in
Malolos, the majority will vote for
autonomy under American protection.
“Coasting steamers are trading with
the provinces under Spanish rule.
Aguinaldo demands 50 per cent, of
freight receipts of steamers trading
with the rebel provinces.
“All Spaniards in the northern prov
inces are now prisoners. The rebels
seized stocks and cash of the tobacco
estates belonging to the Compania
Tebaeelera, ip Cagayan province, and
also those of Coprax in Camarines
province. The losses are enormous.
"The rebel steamer Bulosan has
been sunk by a Spanish gunboat at
Mar bats.
“Aguinaldo denies the shipment of
arms from Japan. The arms were
probably shipped by the priests for
Artacho.”

What Senator Mason Says AbOtt
Treatment of Soldiers.
New York, Sept. 16.—The Journal
yesterday published a characteristic
interview with Senator Mason, of Illi
nois. He said bo aud Colonel Turner
had nothing to do with' tbe delay in
movinglhe First IlHoois. Colonel
Mason waxed very indignant.
“Shameful, disgraceful, infernal,
damnable there io no word or term
too strong to use. Will the apology
of the ;■ government, ‘some one has
.blundered’ give ns back our dead?
Will it cause us to forget • the suffer
ings of our fever stricken boysT Is it
balm sufficient to heal the torn and
broken hea.rts that are bleeding in
thousands of homes throughout the
land? Wbat an excuse for a govern
ment to make through its secretary of
wart
“This is the crime of the century,
the tragedy of the nation. Our sol
diers have not poured out their heart’s
blood on the slter of their country,
but have been crucified by blundering
and plundering officialdom. Our
beads are bowed in deepest woe; we
must bow them lower with very shame.
All the world acclaimed our hundred
days’ war. Every tongue was aflame
with*the glory of America, her valiant
army, her superb navy Today the
world ie stricken dumb with horror.
Christianity is aghast, and we—we
are listening to the apology of the
government: “Some one blundered!”
and look on with streaming eyes at
some one’s blunders being manifold.
“I do not criticise the army itself.
Officers and men have behaved and
fought as Americsns, Their gsllan*
try is the one theme we can go back
to with pleasure. But Ido condemn
the commissary departments and the
medical departments with all my
strength and power, and I hope very
soon to see a thorough and proper
investigation of the horrors Isy the
blame where it rightfully belongs.”
