THE MORNING CALL. Vol. X. No. 128. INTO ACTIVE SERVICE. THIRD GEORGIA HAS A DANGER OUS DUTY TO PERFORM. Has Been Ordered to Drive Rebell ious Cubans From Trocha and Will Have Lively Times- Several letters were received in At lanta yesterday morning from officers of tbe Third Georgia regiment stating that tbe command was under orders to proceed immediately to one of tbe trochas—which the insurgents bad seized and are holding—and take charge of it. Which means that after all the Third Georgia regiment will see active service—and will probably be the only regiment so favored or so fortunate. The insurgents’ army has possessed itself of tbe military railroad that runs alongside of this famous deadline, and refuses to allow the American engin eers sent from Havana to operate it. Accordingly orders have been issued by the war department that the trocha and the railroad be retaken, by force, if necessary, and the insurgents dis. armed. And for this service the Georgians have been selected. Afterwards, as they have already been instructed, they will be detailed to guard and hold the position. The vacancies to be- made in the ranks of Third Georgia regiment, now in Cuba, by the resignations of Capt. Amos Baker and Capt A. J. Burr, are to be filled from the ranks of the regi ment, This position has beep taken by Governor Oatr.d er who in the past two days has been besieged with appli cations for appointments from a large number of persons in the state, as well as from the men of tbe Third Georgia themselves Governor Candler stated yesterday that it was his intention to promote officers already in the regiment to the vacancies, which he has beaid are to be made ir.i the near future He ex pressed the opinion that the men who hail worked to make the regiment what it was should ba tendered the promotions in the ranks in preference to appointing mep on tbe outside. Governor Candler said that th : s rule would be adhered to closely for the present, and although he had re ceived a number of applications from different parts of the state, be would be compelled to consider first the applications of the men already with the regiment who were deserving of promotions —Constitution..

For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a consti tutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.

There was a fierce thunder storm last night and air of gloom about the senate all today, as if some-calamity were impending or some great sorrow had fallen upon the members, says the Washington correspondence if the Chicago Record. It was the re sult of the news from Nevada —the re election of Senator Stewart and the prospect of being compelled to listen to his speeches for another six years, Mr. Stewart is a a interminable talker, but his colleagues could endure that if he would talk on more than one subject, which be declines to do, He makes the same speech over and over again almost every day, so that sena tors with good memories can repeat it almost verbatim, and bis familiar phrases about tbe capitalistic vam* pires with the fetid fangs and the money devils and the crime of '73 are more familiar to a majority of the senate than tbe ten commandments. Ex-Senator Everts hit off Mr Stew art’s peculiarities in a little story that he toll! at a dinner given in honor of Senator Spooner when the latter was leaving public life six years ago. After the coffee was served one after another of colleagues arose and pro nounced a eulogy. When Mr. Stew art’s turn came he said that while Spooner was a good fellow he was all wrong on and proceeded to repreat the old speech he bad made so many times in the Senate. Senator Everts, who next took the floor, said that Stewart reminded him of a man he bad met in an insane asylum one time when he was acting as a member of a board of visitors. Tbe superin tendent told them that they must say cheerful things to the patients, and therefore when be saw a lunatic sit ting astride of a table beating it with a whip and pretending to drive it with a pair of string lines he walked up to him and said : “That’s a fine hobby you have there, my friend.” “It isn’t a hobby,’ answered the lunatic, “It’s a horse.” “What's tbe difference between a horse and a hubby?” suggested Mr. Everts, The lunatic turned on him with an air of supreme contempt and remarked: -You blank fool, any body can get <IF a horse, but nobody ever got off a hobby.” CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

This is an age of new things, and occult science has developed subst tnces conditions and professions that were on'y dreamed (>l in other days. A New Orleans man of cu’ture, who has al ways been well fixed and has never been without market money, and never had business troubles, has bsen quite successful in establishing a “Don’t Worry" school. He has done much good He has brought sunshine and happiness into homes from which they had been driven out by worry. He has discounted trouble that his friends would insist upon borrowing, and has smoothed away wrinkles that would come across the foreheads of fretting people. Yet there are some people who will not be naturally com forted and for them a new angel has appeared inThe shape of a professional worrier. This man, who has been quite suc cessful in his business in New York may soon come to New Orleans in per eon, or open a branch c ffice here. For those people who thins worrying is necessary to carry on their Dueiness; he will be a welcome relief. Some careless men have become hardened of heart, and tough of skin ; they bor» row money they never Intend to re turn ; they,run up board bills or gro cery bills they never intend to pay; they stand off tailors for fine clothes they wear without ever expecting to own They are not worried. They say let tbe other fellows—tbe men we owe—do the worrying. That is an easy shifting of trouble for the thick skinned and tough ; but it will not do for the honest, sensitive people who take their misfortunes and troubles to heart. They believe that worrying must be done, and that they must do it It is for such as these that the professor of worry will open hie institute The man who doesn’t care a tinker’s little soft solder dam of bread what happens, will have no use for the professor of worry. He is for those who are convinced that worry ing must be done. They go to ths professor who undertakes to do worry ing for other people, and they pay him according to their needs and bis schedule of prices. It is said that in ordinary cases be will charge not more than $2 per worry. In more serious cases he must be retained by the day, and be given much more money. He is worth it A great many men aie made miserable by worrying over affairs that would come out all the same if they did not worry. But they are built to worry and make themselves sick over it and make all people about them miserable, The piofessor who will do the worrying for them is a happy relief. Damon and Pythias were such friends that one would die for the other David and Jonolhan would bear each other’s woey. There is said to be an honor among thieves that would make one suffer imprisonment for another as a test of friendship. Men have been known to commit murder, and to swear falsely for a friend. But the professor of worry is not of this class He assumes no man’s crimes. He is no cat’s paw. He in legitimate business, and simply of fers to do the worrying for nervous people who think worrying should be done He cornea very near filling a long-felt want, and should be encour aged Don’t worry Let the pro fessor of worry do all that for you.— New Orleans Picayune.

Judge Felton, of Macon, imposed a fine of SSOO on Ike Baehinski Tuesday for selling whiskey on Sunday. Judge Felton said that this was the second time that be bad heaid a plea of guilty on the same charge from Bashinski. “I am not a moralist or a purist” said the judge, but I am here to see that the laws of this state are observed and justice is administered, and with the help of God and the people of this county, I will do it. “I am an anti—prohibit ionist from principal. I have never in any way been interested in the sale of liquor, and never expect to be as long as I live, consequently my anti-prohibition views are honest and from a straight conviction. ‘ But equally as set'led are only con victions as to the Bible commandment tbe ‘six days slialt thou labor and do all that thou bast to do.’ The law of the state is against the sale of liquor on Sunday, and that law must be ob served while I am on this bench, and sooner the people who deal in liquor understands that the better, for I shall punish every man who is sent to me by the grand jury. “Let Mr. Bashinski pay a fine of five hundred dollars or serve twelve months on tbe chain gang. It will be useless to say a word, not one penny will be taken off the fine," Mr. Felder asked that Mr. Bashinski be given until tbe next day to get the money with which to pay the fine. Judge Felton refused, saying that tbe prisoner was in the hands of the sheriff, who would collect the fine or take Bashinski to jail. The fine was paid. If there were a fev more judges in the state like Judge Felton, its laws would not be violated as much as is now the case.

The hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow, parsnip-colored complexion indicates it. A physician would ask if you had rheu matism, a dull pain or ache In the back or over the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate often, or a burning or scalding in passing it; if after passing' there is an un satisfied feeling as if it must be at once re peated, or if the urine has a brick dust de posit or strong odor. When these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in removing the cause. Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments, or may run into Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous stage of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great discovery of the eminent kidney and blad der specialist, is a positive remedy for such diseases. Its reputation is world wide and it is so easy to get at any drug store that no one need suffer any length of time for want of it. However, if you prefer to first test its wonderful merits, mention The Middle Georgia Farmer, and write to Dr. Kil mer & Co,, Binghamton, N. ¥.. f.r a sample bottle and book telling all about it, both sent absolutely free by mail. 1
