Editor Hawks, of the Boston World, passed through the city this morning route for Atlanta. Some one returns to Wayeross nearly every day after having vainly sought a mom fivorable location. An actual count discloses the tact that nine out of ten of the failures during the late little financial epidemic did not adver tise. Mrs. M. L.

The committee for the issuing of a call iur a State meeting to be held by the colored people in Maoon, to take action on outrages and lynchings, decided that said meeting be held on Wednesday, Oct. 25th, 1893, and not on the 12th or 17th as given out by different niews- papixa. All persons interested will please take due notice and govern them selves accordingly. Other papers please copy. is too apt to tell more than he knows and then some fellow digs him up. That if you would like to make your husband feel like Wellington after the battle of Waterloo, let him have the last word once in awhile. That Waycross is like a frog in a can of milk. She intends to keep a kicking ’till the butter comes and then crawl np on the lump. That there are more pretty little frying sized girls iu Waycross than any other town. New Enterprise for Waycross. We learn that Messrs. Crenshaw and Connel have rented the Youmans* building and will open a country pro duce and general commission business in Waycross about the first of next month. This firm will deal in hay, grain and general feed supplies. Another long felt want will he supplied. Carter’s Corredtlou. Surgeon Carter denies that he said that “the section between Waycross, Brunswick and Jesup is infected.” Wliat he did say was that the section between Camp Haines, Jesup and Brunswick is infected. He says there is no infection west of Camp Haines oi west of Jesup. Waycross is as free from yellow fever or any other disease as any city in the state, perhaps a little more so. No Yellow Ferer in Waycross. Under the caption of “Gossip of a Day,” the Atlanta Constitution of Sat urday lias this paragraph. “The spread of the fever to Jesup and Waycsoss has caused a redoubling of quarantine regu lations and strictures, and many are the inconveniences to which travelers are put” In view of the fact that Waycross has been repeatedly declared entirely free of fever or sickness of any kind by the surgeons, the authorities and the press, and that no quarantine exists against us from any quarter. We think it exceed, ingly strange that a paper rs well posted the Constitution usually is, should publish such a statement. It is indeed true that our quarantine is exceedingly strict and our authorities intend to keep it so, if we never sec another insurance man or commercial tourist during our natural lives, but there is not t|ic slight est grounds for the rumor that yellow fever has reached this place. ‘The paragraph quoted is calculated to do Waycross great injury, and its injus tice is glaring. We ask the Constitu tion to correct the statement referred to at once and emphatically. Waycross is not really as much exposed or in half the danger that Atlanta is. We know full well that the Constitution would not injure us intentionally, but wc must in sist that “the biggest and best of all the Southern dailies” keep a little better posted in regard - to the movements of yellgjv jack in Georgia. Relief Badly Needed. \ special telegram to the Herald just as we arc going to press from a private but reliable source, states that Bruns- is badly in need of help. The Her ald took up the first subscription in Waycross for Brunswick, and now we appeal again to the public for aid for the stricken city. Will not some charitable and leading citizen or citizens take this matter in hand and get up further sup plies for the suffering city. No Health Certificate. Yesterday morning a negro woman and two children direct from Jackson ville, Fla., carnc up pn Conductor Wright’s train, but as they had no health certificate Mayor Knight refused to allow them to get oft’ here. Conductor Wright said lie iutended to put the woman and children off, whereupon he was told if he did he would be prosecuted for break ing the quarantine laws. The passengers were carried on to some other point be tween here and Savannah, with’the re mark “that it was harder to get into Waycross than Savannah.” Mayor Knight* No mayor in this or any • other town has worked harder or more intelligently to protect their town from the introduc tion of yellow fever during the Bruns wick epidemic than Mayor Knight, and so far tic has been eminently succeeaful. Mayor Knight has been tireless and watchful day and night and he deserves the gratitude nnd commendation of every citizen, ne is the right man in the right place. The Old Church. We publish in another column some very pretty verses from the pen of Mont gomery M. Folsom on the old chnrch in Waycross. They will be read with In terest. Many tender memories will still cling aronnd the old church long after its sacred walls have been deserted for the beatiful new building on Gilmore street. Samples From Tifton. 3Ir. W. H. Love, president of the Tifton canning factory, brought to the city tc-day samples of canned tomatoes, okra and tomatoes, beans, peaches and pears. The samples exhibited by Mr. Love are as fine as can be produced any where and Mr. Love informs us that the company is finding ready sale for its products. The company had sixty acres in tomatoes the present year and have paid special attention to the canning of this vegetable. Canned tomatoes are as good as gold and always find a ready sale. The canning industry in South Georgia bids fair to be a big success and the enterprising company at Tifton is taking the lead. Our Graded School. ■ The number of pupils enrolled iu our white graded school to date is 305. Others are coming in and the largest at tendance we have ever had since the or ganization of the public school system, is assured. Never before perhaps, in the history of the town has" the school started off under more auspicious circum stances. Larger and better school build ings are badly needed, however, and it is to be hoped that another year will not elapse before wc have them. The following is a list of the corps of efficient teachers employed: Prof. Robt. Bridges. Miss Clyde Gray. Miss Addie Bass. Mrs. Clara Lyon. Miss Maggie Bell. Miss Mamie Clark. 31 rs. A. E. Bridges. 3Iiss Kate 3IcKinnon. 3Iiss Kate Bandy. 3Irs. T. L. Strickland, music. We find the colored school in a pros perous condition with 117 scholars in attendance.

Knott, the physician of tills city who re cently went to Washington to interest Surgeon General Wyman in his phos phoric acid poison theory of yellow lbver. Dr. Knott hoped to have his theory tested under government direction, but has not as yet received authority from Washington, and will now make his test on his own account. His call on the governor to-day was to get proper credentials and letters of introduction to the Brunswick authorities, which Gov. Northen granted him. Dr. Knott will go to Brunswick sometime this week. His theory is that yellew fever is due to phosphoric poisoning, and his remedy is ozone and turpentine applied under directions. < Council Proceedings. The City Council met in regular meet ing on the 18th of September 1893, at 4 o’clock p. m. Present, His Honor, Mayor Knight, Aldermen McNeil, Justice and 3Iiller. The minutes of meeting of August 21st, and of the joint-meeting of August 22nd, of the Board of Health and the city Coun cil were read, corrected, and on motiou confirmed. The 3Iayor stated that it was his sad duty to announce to the members of the city Council, the death of one of its most active members, Alderman E. H. Craw ley, which sad and unexpected event occurred on the morning of the 12th of September, at liis home on Albany ave nue. The 3Iayor appointed Alderman 3IcNe:l a committee to draft resolutions of respect to the memory of Alderman Crawley, and .present them at the next regular meeting of Council. On motion it was resolved that the Clerk publish notice of an election on Saturday, Sept. 30th, for an Alderman, to fill the vacancy in the second ward, occasioned by the death of Alderman Crawley. The 3Iayor stated that he had estab lished a rigid quarantine against Bruns wick on account of another outbreak of yellow fever at that place, and on account of the authorities of Waresboro having allowed refugees from Brunswick to stop there, he had also quarantined Wares boro. The Mayor read a telegram from Sur geon General Wyman. The city Attorney reported that he had made satisfactory arrangements with Capt. Hamilton, on the matter of settle ment of claims against him. It was ou motion ordered that the books of the Tax'Collector be closed on the ISth of October next. The 3Iavor read the following ordin ances of the city: “Be it ordained by the Mayor and Council of the city ot Waycross, and it is hereby made a law, that if any person or persons shall harbor, secrete, entertain, lodge or keep, or shall directly or indirectly suffer to be harbor ed, secreted, entertained, lodged PROFESSIONAL CARDS.

Cason & Miller, Uncle Ben. The Washington correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution says : ‘•Uncle Ben” Russell, as the Congress man from the Second Georgia district is familiarly known,- is probably the most successful of the new members of Con gress in obtaining offices for for his con stituents. “Uncle Ben” don’t tell when he gets an office, but he has managed to put several South Georgians into good fat places. The manner and address of a person goes a long ways in getting of fices. “Uncle 'Ben” has one of those lovable dispositions which makes him popular and causes every one to be an xious to serve him.
