AVajuesboro Wins Tw«j Games From An-
gusta.
The Augusta ball team won its
second defeat from the Waynesboro
team last week, yielding us the best
two out of three games this season.
The Augustans did not relish the
defeat of 10 to 2 given them in the
first game of the series on the Way
nesboro grounds a short time ago,
and invited our boys for return
games on the 13th and 14th. AtYer
strengthening their club by good
players from other parts of the
state, they were ready for our
scalps.
The game Friday wa3 a victory
for Henley by a score of 6 to 1, and
Augusta enjoyed our defeat to the
fullest. The game was practically
Augusta’s in the first inuiug. Palm
er did excellent work afterwards
and the game was very interesting
Augusta scored only two runs after
that inning and they were on errors
It was indeed a victory to bt
proud of, but Waynesboro can af
ford to be generous and not feel
sore, for on Saturday Augusta met
her defeat and gave up the third
game to the home boys.

After many intricate experiment
scientists have discovered methods
for obtaining all the natural digest-
ants, These have been combined
in the proportion found in the hu
man body and united with substance
that build up the digestive organs,
making a compound called Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what
you eat and allows all dyspectics to
eat plenty of nourishing food while
the stomach troubles are being rad
ically cured by the medicinal ag
ents It contains. It is pleasant to

again after a very severe attack oi
malarial lever.
Quite a number of our citizens are
on the sick list this week—malarial
and bilious fevers being the prevail
ing complaints.
The merry “jug of rum,” of the
bullfrog and the chirp of the bull
frog’s children are getting to be
very familiar sounds in our town
now, in fact, you can hardly think
for the noises they make at night,
and no burglar would dare face
such hideous sounds for the con
tents of Vanderbilt’s vault. Conse
quently we escaped the last raid ot
burglars, but we have failed to es
cape the ravages of typhoid and
other fevers that are very prevalent
here. It is hardly possible for any
sane person to believe that a com
munity of good, sound thinking,
sensible people would allow such a
slop hole to exist right under their
noses, breeding all kinds of danger
ous and infectious diseases as exist
right in the centre of our town, (a
moss-covered, slimy, filthy, filled-up
ditch,) when an expenditure of a
few dollars would remedy it. Will
not the property owners of the towD
come together and make an effort
to do something to remove the
cause of so much suffering.

—A barn belonging to the estate

ville, was burned at 5:30 Monday
evening. The building was worth
about $250. Mr. Daniels who occu
pied the premises lost a quantity of
corn and fodder. No one knows the
origin of the fire.
— Herman Reeves, a farmer
living near Munnerlyn, had occa
sion to go to his buggy house a few
nights ago, and was surprised to see
a negro man run out of it. He fired
his pistol at the fellow but did not
hit him. He does not know why
he was there at that time of night.
—We made some typhographical
errors in the advertisement ol the
Augusta Lumber Company last
week; but you will make no error
if you send them an orden for wire
doors or windows, sash, blinds or
anything needed in the building.
They are up to date. Do you want
the oest?
A sad, horrible butchery. The
Macon New’s suggestion of
sometime ago was by far the
best solution. It was as follows:
Remove all Americans from
China. But alas we thought
our power would keep the yel
low devils from their atrocious
massacres. What does the
Heathen Chinee care tor pow’er
thousands of miles away? No
man who leaves his country to
take up permanent residence
in foreign lands should expect
protection from his country.
This protection of citizens in far
countries has caused the death
of hunderds already in China-
land to be followed by universal
war with death of hundreds of
thousands of people. The pity
of it! The sorrow of mothers,
sisters, widows and ophans,com
ing from this new’ war is enough
to drive the world to madness.
Just because all nations believe
in the tool policy of protecting
permanent residents in foreign
countries. A nation should pro
tect its olficials and its citizen
visitors in toreign countries but
no others. It a man can’t make
a living or lortune in his natiye
land then let him seek other
countries and secure protection
of his adopted country. This
would remove the basis ot many
international misunderstandings
for many men take their life in
their hands relying on their na
tion lor protection. Here comes
the missionary now; this thing
we believe in with this under
standing that a man should go
on his own hook and trust in
the Lord and not on the other
hand go to a foreign land de
pending on his denomination
rather than his God, and to draw
a bigger salary there than at
home, A foreign missionary on
a salary will never do any good
anywhere. Again we see sin in
our midst day in and day out,
yet if we find a real hard down
sinner in distress we think of
the mean things he has done
and immediately give him the
“marble heart”, Let us remem
ber our neighbor whether saint
or sinner and we will come very
near being right. But why net
remember both our foreign and
domestic neighbor? Very good.
So ought we, yet it is proper to
do cleaning in our own house
hold then we can look after oth
ers. An universal war will
surely cause commercial expan
sion but the CASH CONCERN
don’t care for that just so dollars
roll in and the goods go out.
Commerce can expand or con
tract oyer wide briny seas for
we will never go over the pond.
We expect to have a heavy
stock of all lines of goods. This
autumn and winter and the
price has been trimmed until it
has beceme insignificant when
value is regarded.
