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.

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.

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.

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.” Ths Ladies The pleasant effect and perfect safety with which ladies may use Syrup of Figs, under all conditions, makes it their favor ite remedy.

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.” ITO HCHItNCE M SYIUPOFFKS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fig Bvbup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the Importance of purchasing the true and original remedy.
