A Hundred Gallons of Peach Brandy'
Stolen at Brooks Station.
—
Last Saturday Peter Betbnns, who
has been making brandy at a still
near Brooks Station, placed a hun¬
dred gallons in Wash Ingram’s barn,
near Parker’s mill, for the purpose,
as he says, of paying off some obli¬
' *'
gations. ' '
Sunday morning the brandy was
gone from the barn, and after dili¬
gent search was found bidden under
some pomace at a sorghum mill near
by. There was a good deal of talk
about the matter, and it is said that
yesterday two white men aeknowl-
edged taking it, but pleaded that
they did it to secure a debt due
them.
Now it is intimated that the bran¬
dy was not gauged and that the
revenue officers will take a hand in
the investigation. Altogether,
seems to have been a very crooked

THE NEW LAW.
Urlffln Tobacco Dealers Would De
Well to Post Themselves About It.
Griffin tobacco dealers would do
well to post themselves in regard to
the new cigarette law. The News is
informed that some of the dealers are
not even aware that such a law is in
existence, and this information is,
doubtless, correct, judging bj the
youngsters seen smoking on the
streets.
The News does not know all the
provisions and restrictions of the
law, but it can say this much for
the benefit and information of the
dealers:
The cigarette bill by Senator John¬
son, of the 24th Georgia district,
which passed the Senate unanimous¬
ly July 19th, was taken up in the
House and passed without a dissent¬
ing vote. It was signed by the gov¬
ernor last week and is now in effect.
The bill provides that no person
shall sell, furnish, give or provide
any minor or minors with cigarettes,
tobaco. cigarette paper or any other
substitute therefor. The penalty
shall be that provided for misde¬
meanors, which is imprisonment for
not more than a year or a fine of
not exceeding $1,000, or both.
IT WORKS BOTH WAYS.
The New York Herald of Saturday
says: ‘ When the Uigarmakers' In
ternational Union meets tnis morn¬
ing the delegates will be asked to en¬
dorse the following:
“Whereas the practice of cigarette
smokingaeriously affects the growth
of the trade we represent, we are of
the opinion that it has served to de¬
moralize the youth of our country,
nndermining their health, impairing
their mental faculties and rendering
them unfit for any useful purpose,
therefore, be it
“Resolved, That we recommend
the passage of a law by the various
State Legislatures which shall pre¬
vent the manufacture or sale of cig¬
arettes.
“Now it will be in order for the cig¬
arette makers to ask fora law pro¬
hibiting the manufacture and sate of
cigars. * “

Griffin OH moves the cotton in this
^It.
Nq Not only what comes hero is paid
for with Griffin money, bnc ail that
is bought in all the territory around.
When the Griffin receipts were
stretched up on Saturday night to
2,625 balsa, more than had ever
come here before during the same
time in ten years, the finance and
commerce reporter thought the top
had been reached. .
But it lacked at least 500 bates Of
it.
The disbursement of the new Mer-
chants and Planters Bank, the baby
giant of Griffin’s finances, bad been
overlooked.
This institution paid out last week
for cotton over $80,000. A good
part of this wah to buyers at half a
dozen neigboring points Along the
rt railroads, notably at Neal,
—— and Hampton; but iprobably
five-sixths of the 800 bales that this
bought were shipped to this point
for re-shipment, and a greater por¬
tion of the money will float bade
here in the channels of trade. This
will make the aggregate receipts to
Saturday night, 8,000 bales.
The Merchants and Planters Bank
is receiving from $3,000 to $10,000
every day for the handling of cotton,
and while it is doing an unpreeedent-
ly large business for an institution
not three months old, its facilities
are equal to all demands that may
he made upon it, and it is proving
the great benefit] to Griffin that was
expected of it.
Griffin can buy all thecotton tha t
can be sent here by wagon or rail.,
and pay - - the spot - cash and the high-
est mark et pnee , for it.
“ The Verdict ~ “ Unanimous.
W. D. Salt, Dnimpst, Bippus, Ind., teetifles:
‘lean i vau recommend nxumuivuu Electric xwuvviiv Bitters as « the — v
very best remedy. Eyery bottle sold has given
relief in every case. One man took six bottles
and was cured of Bhaumatism of 10 years
standing.” Abraham Hare, d-inggist, Bell
viUe, Vllle, Ohio, UUo, uffirms smrms : : “The -me beet Deec selhng seuiug medi mevii
cine I have ewer handled in my Thousands 20 years’ ex of
perieuev, is Electric Bitters.”
Others have added their testimony, so that
the verdict is unanimous that Electric Bitters
do cure ail diseases of the liver, Kidneys or
Blood. Only a haH dollar a bottle at E. B.

NO NORE CONSIGNMENTS.
Florida Fruit Growers Fight Against
Shipping Oranges that way.
The Florida Fruit Exchange is mak¬
ing a big fight against the consign¬
ment of oranges to any point. The
following is a reply from a Florida
orange grower to a card sent out by
a fruit dealer of Macon, asking on
what conditions and how the crop
will be disposed of this season:
‘•I will deal in oranges very exten¬
sively this season, but shall not con¬
sign any. If you want fruit you can
buy all you wish, but Florida is
pledged against the consignment
plan.”
That is a stroke against the great¬
est evil in the orange trade, the deal¬
ers say. The independence of the or¬
ange growers is cropping out, and
the time will come, the dealers pre¬
dict, when oranges will sell for a good
deal more than they now sell for. The
amount realized off a crop will be
very much more. When asked upon
what this belief is predated, the re¬
ply is that the tendency of the grow¬
ers in Florida is to stop shipping
fruit. That they would discontinue
the shipment of it except through the
Florida Fruit Exchange. The ex¬
change is composed of large orange
growers who have established head¬
quarters in Jacksonville, with a sup¬
erintendent to receive their fruit and
all other fruits of Florida which may
b* shipped to the exchange from in¬
terior points to be reshipped. Every
facility is afforded to the superinten
dent to keep posted about the mar
kets,freight rates; the condition of the
crop, the relation of the supply and
the demand, and, in short, every¬
thing that is necessary to enable him
to uTake the best disposition of the
fruit that is placed in his charge.
Heretofore the gro\----- jwers have --------- been
