THE GRIP.
There Are Many Cases of It in
Dawson and Vicinity.
Have you had the grip? This is the
common greeting on the street these
days.
The grip seems to be more prevalent
in both the city and country this year
than ever before, and in some instances
the working forces have been consid
erably reduced.
Anybody who has had the grip can
sympathize with anybody else who has
had iv, as it gives a person a most
m:serable feeling. So far as is known
there have been no fatal cases, but it
makes a man feel like he is going to
die and he doesn’t much care if he
does. ‘
| La Grippe Quickly Cured.
' “In the winter of 1898 and 1899 I was
‘taken down with a severe attack of
}what is called La Grippe,” says F. L.
| Hewett, a prominent druggist of Win
field, lil. “The only medicine I used
‘was two bottles of Chamberlain’s
lCough Remedy. It broke up the cold
iand stopped the coughing like magic,
‘and T have never since been troubled
‘with Grippe.’” Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy can always be depended upon
to break up a severe cold and ward off
any threatened attack of pneumonia.
It is pleasant to take, too, which
makes it the most desirable and one of
the most popular medicines in use for
these ailments. For sale hy Farrar,

DAWSON WANTS ENCAMPMENT.
An Effort Will Be Made to Have the Fourth Georgia Regiment to
Through the efforts of Colonel W. E.
Wooten it is almost certain that an en
campment of the Fourth Georgia regi
ment will be held this summer in one
of the cities in the regiment’s territo
ry. and several towns are endeavoring
to secure it.
Captain H. A. Wilkinson of the
Dawson Guards states that Lis compa
ny will extend an invitation to the reg
iment and will do its utmost to secure
the encampment for Dawson. The cit
izens of the town will also lend their
support to the movement, and every
inducement will be offered the soldiers
to spend two or three weeks in camp
here.
There are many reasons why Dawson
CAUGHT ON THE CURBSTONE.
—Are yourestless at night, and har
rassed by a bad cough? Use Ballard’s
Horehound Syrup. It will secure you
sound sleep and effect a prompt and
radical care. Price 25¢. and 50c. at the
Dswson Drug Co’s.
—The latter part of last week was
one continuous downpour of rain, and
considerable damage was done the
streets and sidewalks of the city.
—The sale at Hornady & Cox’s is
not one of the kind done on paper
alone. Price the goods and convince
yourself. Take the cash with you.
—Dor’t think less of your system
than you do of your house. Give it a
thorough cleansing, too. Take Hood’s
Sarsaparilla.
—The city was full of wedding ru
mors Sunday, but if Cupid celebrated
a victory it has been kept mighty
quiet,
—Mr. W. R. Cox has given to Mr. F.
A. Ruggles a contract for building a
handsome residence on Lee street.
—The jail has been repaired since
the recent attempt of the prisoners to
escape, and is now secure.
—Very few of the enthusiastic
gardeners have as yet been beguiled in
to seeding for ealy sass.

A Card of Thanks.
To the People of Bronwood: We al
ways find it a difficult task when we
approach a sad duty, but how much
more difficult is it when we wish to
express the sincerest gratitude of our
hearts to those who ministered to our
beloved father in his last illness. We
cannot find words adequate to express
our feelings to the good people of
| Bronwood for their kind ministrations
to our father, J. C. Avera. They left
| nothing undone that could minister to
‘his comfort and welfare, and we will al
ways feel the deepest sense of grati
tude to them for it. Our whole family
join me in this slight tribute. Very
truly, W. F. AVERA.

’should be looked upon favorably for
‘the encampment. The town is one of
‘the most central points in the territo
ry embraced by the Fourth regiment,
there are several locations here emi
nently suitable for camping grounds,
water and light connections would be
made, and in fact everything done
which would add to the comfort and
pleasure of the soldiers.
It is hoped by all that Dawson will
be chosen as the place for the encamp
ment, and if it is the military men will
be accorded a hearty welcome and
offered the most generous hospitality
of the town.
It is understood that the other towns
that want the encampmentare Albany,
Columbus, Cuthbert and Americus.
TAX ASSESSORS.
Council Elects Board for the
Present Year. Other
city Matters.
Several matters of importance occu
pied the attention of the city council
at their meeting Tuesday night. The
street committee recommended that
the streets given to the city through
the Carver property, lying between
Crawford street and Dozier avenue and
Lee street and Fourth avenue, be
opened, and the recommendation
was adopted by the council. Work
will, therefore, be begun on opening
the new streets at an early date.
Mr. Steve Kenney was unanimously
elected fireman to fill the vacancy
caused by the recent resignation of
Mr. Will Martin, and the salary of
Chief Cameron of the department was
raised from $55 to $75 per month.
An important matter considered and
acted upon by the council was the elec
tion of city tax assessors for the pres
ent year, Messrs. W. A. McLain, G. S.
Crowell and R. R. Marlin being named
as such.
Several other mavters of minor im
portance were acted upon before the
adjournment of the council.
Cattarrh Cannot Be Gured
with local applications, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or eonstitutional
disease, and {in order to cure it you
must take constitutional remedies.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internal
iy, and acus directly on the blood and
mucous membranes. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is not a quack medicine. It was
prescribed by one of the best physi
‘cians in this country for years, and is a
regvlar prescription. It is composed
of the best tonics known, combined
with the best blood purifiers, acting
directly on the mucous surfaces. The
perfect combination of the two ingre
dierts is what produces such wonderful
results in curing Catarrh.

At the Polit of Death.
The Shellman correspondent of THE

is at the point of death.”” Many friends
hope that she will be spared to her
family aad society.
Reports show a greatly increased
death rate from throat and lung
troubles, due to the prevalence of
sroup, pneumonia and grippe. We ad
vise the use of One Minuie Cough
Cure in all of these difficulties. It is
the only harmless remedy that gives
immediate results. Children like it.
