Augusta's digest of taxable property
has been completed and shows a total
of $22,519,000 divided as follows:
Realty, $16,588,350; personalty, $5,
931,382. Tho increase over last year
is $116,584, not a bad showing fora

«if?ned the bill passed by tho legisla

for a state exhibit at tho Atlanta ex
road »«“•*,»*•'«*»—•*>» will dnpbcate this amount.
Half a dozen gentlemen from Ne¬
braska were in Eatonton recently look¬
ing to the purchase of homes for fifty
families in that section. They were
shown the lands in the county by some
Eatonton gentlemen and seem favor¬
ably impressed with them. They state
that they will probably make some
purchases. One of the gentlemen, it
is said, represents Governor Northen’s
immigration bureau.
From a reliable source, it is learned
that the recent survey of the outer bar
at Brunswick gives a depth of sixteen
&nd onc-balf feet at dead-low water,
making twenty-three feet at ordinary
high tide. This is two and one-half
feet more than was shown by tho pre¬
vious survey. Colonel Goodyear has
demonstrated that dynamite is the
proper instrument for deepening bars
of this character aud tho value of his
experiment will force proper recogni
tion from tho engineering world,
Judgo Hpoer, at Havannah, has ap¬
pointed President John It. Youug, of
tho Atlantic Bhort Line, recoivor of
that property. Mr. Marion Erwin,
representing tho Central National
Batik of Now York, which has a $50,
000 lien upon tho proporty, filed tho
bill for receiver. The present owners
failed to sell the Atlautic Short Lino
to the Macon and Dublin for $250,000
and tho receivership followed. It is
believed that tho road will now bo
sold.
A deed was recorded a few days ago
in tho office of the clerk of Bibb supe¬

from Macon to Athens, a distance of
107 miles, nnd all of its property, con¬

The committee of Atlanta manufact¬
urers appointed by tho Chamber of
Commerce to cull the convention ond
arrange preliminaries, lias held regu¬
lar meetings, and the work is well in
hand. Subcommittees have been ap¬
pointed to attend to different details
and promote tho success of tho con¬
vention. Tho secretary of the organ¬
izing committee, says: “The conven¬
tion will be well attended, and ex¬
pressions from more than 200 manu¬
facturers indicate that tho delegates
will easily agree to main questions.”
The death of Col. James W. Scott,
proprietor and publisher of tho Chica¬
go Times- Herald, will cause tho deep¬
est sorrow wherever that prince of
newspaper men was known. Here iu
Georgia his death will be felt as that
of a personal friend. lie hod always
manifested deep interest in the south.
An illustration of this is shown in his
friondliness to tho exposition move*
inont at Atlanta, especially as it was
manifested in tho Herald’s great
write-np of the enterprise aud tho spe¬
cial train by menus of which ho scat¬
tered thousands of copies of that edi¬
tion through the south. Tho Herald
was the first great northern newspaper
to give the exposition such recogni¬

preciate tho set and the spirit which
prompted it.

Insurance Companies That Put Money
In Georgia Securities.
Here are the insurance companies
doing business in Georgia that have
made investments in this state. The
facts are furnished by Comptroller
General Wright and are given, as will
be remembered, in response to a re¬
quest of Governor Atkinson.
and Many of doing the companies, this both life
fire, business in state
do not invest in Georgia bonds and
Georgia securities. Of the fire com¬
panies, all are required to make a de¬
posit with the treasurer of $25,000, in
either United States bonds or Georgia
bonds. Many make this deposit in
Georgia bonds, probably because they
can obtain these bonds at a less cost
than States; they can this! tl^o bonds of the United
so purchase cannot be
properly classed as investment. Twen¬
ty-nine companies hold bonds in this
way.
in Of the all state the cor noiflone j;>a tries is doing prohibited business by

COOK COUNTY DEMOCRATS
Call i Convention for May 4th to
Select Delegates.
The central committee of the Cook
connty, Ill., democracy held a meet¬
ing at Chicago Monday night and is¬
sued a call for a convention of the city
and county democrats on May 4th, for
the purpose of electing delegates to
the state monetary convention of the
party, to be held in June.
It is anticipated that the convention
will be one of the liveliest affairs of
the kind ever witnessed in Chicago,
for the reason that the gold and silver
champions will there engage in a trial
test of arms before going to
Springfield to fight the battle to a fin
ish. In fact,there will be a lively cam¬
paign from now until the primaries
are held, for both wings of the party
will make a desperate effort to secure
control of the Cook connty delega¬
tion. The free silver wing has the ad¬
vantage of having the general and ex¬
ecutive committee in its favor and the
party machinery at its back. The
leaders in the silver movement claim
that they will name three-fourths of
the delegates to Springfield, and, if
necessary, will enforce the unit rule
and cast the 337 votes of Cook county
in favor of a 16 to 1 free silver plat¬
form.
On the other hand, the gold stan¬
dard and anti-free silver men are not
idle. They arc not saying so much as
the “white wings,” but they will not
bo asleep at the primaries, and hope
to secure a majority of delegates who
will, at least, oppose placing the party
on record at the present time.
In tho meantime, the silver men
propose to inaugurate a series of mass
meeting, at which “silver” tongued or
ators will descant on the necessity o(
free coinage. For the next three weeks
the town will again enjoy a political
campaign, with the republicans as sim
pie spectators,
WILDK ON TRIAL.
The ^Esthete and His Accomplice in
the Dock Together.
Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor were
arraigned for examination in the Bow
btreet police court at London Thurs¬
day morning. Wildo was defended
by commoner Clarke, who announced
that he would not cross-examine any
of tho witnesses until they testified at
the trial of tho charges against Wilde.
Counsel for Alfred Taylor examined
tho young man Parker, who admitted
that ho had been guilty of heinous of¬
fenses with many persona besides
Wilde. Parker also admitted that he
had recovered £20 from persons whose
pursuit it was to extort money from
A young man named Atkins was
called to tho witness stand. Iu 1892,
he said, Wildo had asked him to go to
Paris with him ns his secretary. Ho
wont to Paris with Wilde and re¬
mained there a fow days. They dined
together in splondid style. By Wilde’s
order lie wore his hair curled. He de¬
nied that any misconduct had occurred
between them. Wilde had given him.
a silver cigarette enso, costing £3 and
asked lrim not to mention the visit to
Paris.
Iu reply to a question by the mag¬
istrate, Atkins said he had acted as
"Wilde's ’*ocretary for about lialf an
hour when he was engaged in writing
some letters about Wilde’s play, “A
Woman of No Importance.”
A witness named Shcrley related the
circumstances of his dining with Wilde
in 1892. Afterwards they had some
wine together in a private room, when
Wilde kissed him and flattered him,
calling him a “clever fellow” and the
like. He remained with Wilde
throughout that night. Subsequently
he had written to Wilde asking him to
terminate their friendship. It is re¬
ported Wilde has boon ill since his
confinement iu jail.
NEW ENEMY OF COTTON.
A Destructive Pest Brought Over
from Mexico.
The department of agriculture at
Washington has just issued a circular
to cotton planters rolative to a new
aud very destructive insect that has
been brought across tho Rio Grande
from Mexico into tho cotton belt of
Texas and which, during 1894, seri¬
ously injured tho cotton thousand crop over a
territory of about five bolls with square its
miles. It punctures the
beak and lays eggs in the hole thus
made. The grubs hatch and ruin both
the seed and fiber, thus destroying
simultaneously both products of the
cotton plant.
The Texas legislature, at the sug¬
gestion of the agricultural department,
is discussing tho question of quaran¬
tining tho cotton from the infected
section and the enforcement of the
remedial work by act of law. The de¬
partment of agriculture has appointed
a skillful agent, who is located at
Brownsville, Tex., and who will study
the life, history and habits of the new
pest aud experiment extensively with
remedies during the coming season
under tho direction of Mr. L. O.
Howard, chief entomologist of the de¬
partment. Inasmuch as the insect is
new to American cotton planters, there
is much yet to be learned about its
habits before practical remedies can
be suggested. This insect is now in
Texas nnd threatens to spread to other ;
cotton states, aud the entire south is,
therefore, interested in the problem
now confronting the Texas legislature.

Keep Turpentine in the House.
It is tho simple thing just at hand

it on n lump of sugar is good for worms
in children and good for kidney trou¬

lard or camphorated oil, it is a good
liniment for all kinds of rheumatic
pains and figures largely in all patent
pain medicines. It will take paint out
of carpets, ink stains out of white
muslin when added to soap. A few
drops added to the boiler of clothes
will help to whiten them, moths will
flee from it, cockroaches disappear af¬
ter a few vigorous doses of it, andauts
are easily exterminated by its use.

(From Journal, Zneislon, Me .) .
Samuel R. Jordan has just given th« Jour
nnl an account of his life, which in view ol
his extremely hard lot for the past foW years
will be read with interest. i;
“I am 48 years old and have always lived
in Now Portland. I enlisted In the army in
1362 as a private in Company A, 28th SIa«
Volunteers. My army experience injured my
h ea 'th to some extent, although I worked at
blaoksmithing some part of the time, when
suddenly, several years ago, I was prostrated
with what ablo physicians pronounced Lo¬
comotor Ataxia. At first I could get around
somewhat, yet the disease progressed quite
ra p i<by until I Luch had hardly any feeling in ^
worse that I could not
move for three years without help, as my
neighbors and friends could testify. I e*n~
ployed several physicians in my vicinity, and
elsewhere, and they all told mo that m©di*
cinc 3 would not help me, that they could do
nothing to effect a cure, and that in time I
should become entirely helpless. I became
discouraged. I was a great care to my wife
and friends. Shortly after I met an old army
comrade, Mr. All. Purlin, a resident of Mad¬
ison, Maine, and he incidentally mentioned
how he had tried Dr. Williams' Pink PiUafor
a severs case of rheumatism and a spinal
malarial trouble, that he had suffered with
consequent of his army life, and been greatly
benefited by their use. By his earnest rec¬
ommendation I was induced to try the pills- feel
After taking them for a time I began to
prickly sensations in my legs and a return of
strength so I could move them a little. After
a few weeks I began to feel a marked im¬
provement in my condition. I soon was en¬
abled to walk around a little with the help I
of crutches. After taking for some tim3
can now walk without crutchs3, my general
health is much improved and I have re¬
gained my old-time vigor. I can walk
about and enjoy life ouce more, for which I
feel very thankful, and this happy result is
due to the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” ,
Dr. not Williams’ patent Pink medicine Pills in for tho Pale sense People that

name implies. They were first
as a prescription and used as such in general great
practice by an eminent physician. So
was their efficacy that it was deemed wise to
place them within the reach of all. They
are now manufactured by the Dr. Williams’
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. if., and
are sold in boxes (never in loose form by the
dozen or hundred, and the public are sold cau¬ in
tioned against numerous imitations

$2.50, and may be had of all druggists or di¬
rect by mail from Dr. Williams’ Medicine
Company.
