The country had been iu.u stiUc of

A oolhipse followed. Tho iinauclul

During the campaign of ’02 tho Dem

LOOKING AFTER SHAp.
Fish Commissioner Cary Inspecting the
Risers of Georgia. ~i -
-The question is often heard .’’what be
comes of the millions of shad th&t are
annually £ut In Georgia streams by the
United -States fish commission V* But
no one ever attempts a satisfactory
answer. *.
In the proper season, however, shad
are frequently caught in the* Ocmufgee
by pahles who know how to fish for
them with nets,, and acme very fine
specimens have been caught right here
ut Macon.
Dr. H. H. Carey, state fish commis
sioner, is now on u tour of the state
looking after the shad in the various
rivers and will glv* due attention ti the
Ocmul^ee. .
“The particular object Of this Inspec
tion,” said Dr. Cary, .”ls to ns^ertaln
what increase there has been in shad
from the plantings of the artificial
hatchings of the hist few years. These
hatchings have been furnished by the
United States fish commission, Wc are,
very hOpeful that the next legislature'
will make us np appropriation so that
wo can establish one cr more hatcheries
of our own. With an appropriation suf
ficient to establish and carry on such
hatcheries we couhi easily plant GO,000,-
000 .young shad in the waters of Georgia
annually. Thus wo can make sbad more
plentiful in (.V. ikI.j than they have ever
been before.”
Dr. Cary is very much gratified at
finding such a large Increase, tn shad
In tho streams In the last few years.
Within thi? lust few w<eks ],000,004$
young shad have been plahtgrK in the
Savannah river in the neighborhood of
Augusta.
Dr. Cary recently visited the ofilce of
United States Fish Commlssloppr Mc
Donald tn Washington, and It Is by spe
cial request of the commissioner that he
Is making this inspection. Hei'jvns In
formed that the catch of shau during
the p.tftt Moa.«-n>n w in not as large jih in
previous seasons, but further up tbe
river he was Informed that the catch
had been much larger. ■
Tint state appropriates fGOO a year for
the expenses of the HM: eommlssicn.
Dr. Cary gets no Salary as commission
er. but performs the duties of his pb-
sitlon out of pure Interest in tne work,*
and because of his belief that It is des
tined to bo it source of .greatygood to.
the state. , . » '
"Gebrgia has the finest system of riv
ers for fish cultivation of any state In
tho union,” enld he. “and with compara
tively little cultivation und expense nn
Immense Industry can be developed.”
B. J. Lentz was appointed fish war
den by Dr. < ':i«m at Six’annah. Tlie >
duties of the fish* •warden* an* to see
that 4>-' laws forbidding the clcslng of
the streams entirely to the fish during
the running season nre enforced. The
state law provides that nets snail be
pbicetft for shad only front sunset to
sunrise, and that no ncts’shall be put
In the rivers from Friday night to Mon
day mcrnlng, the object of the law
being to allow a sufficient nuhtber of
the fish to reach the higher levels of
tho. streams ami deposit their eggs,
which are to produce the next year’s
supply. M *’
There Is one remarkable peculiarity
about the shad. Dr. Cary says, ond that
Is that while* they only spend about
three months cf every yMr In the rt\t
ers, there has never been a shad caught
in the sea. Where they hide themselves
Is a mystery which has remained un*
h*»1vc I up to th.- pr. Nonr day.
TALLEY ON TRIAL.

Ed Roe*, brother of tho murdered cashier,

hts brother, who was at Stevenson, warn

message to William ltudleston. at Steven
son. which read: ‘’Don’t let party warned

When Talley hanicl his telegram to
remarked to the operator* that It had
connection with the one he had In his
hand. Judge Hrt'lges testified that he
was in th^ telegraph office when alk the
above took place. He said that Talle/

DR. ROMIG ON THE
PRODIGAL SON.
He Preached to an Audience of Folly
Seven Hundred People at the
Tabernacle Last Night.
BE SURE AND COME OUT TONIGHT
And Hear lha Evangelist Tall the la
tere .ling Story of Hie Conversion.
The Alteudnnc* Is Holding
Up Well.
• A lapse and Imtelllgent audience
heard Dr. Rornig Iasi nigh. In his ex-
cll.nt discourse on the "Prodigal Son"
at t6e tabernacle.
After the scripture lesson was read
and the opening prayer was made Fro-
fesaor Bawdy repeated, by request, bis
aolo entiV.ed. “The Lost Sheep." This
Is one of she professor's best, and con
tains a lesson that mores the hearts of
all hearers, when enforced by the pro
fessor's expressive singing.
In ths discourse of fast night Dri
Rornilg was at his best. He had undi
vided attention of every one in the vest
audience, from the beginning to the
close. Many were.heard to say as they
left fhe building .that this was the
best sermon they ever heard on that
subject. It Is. sufficient to 'say. that,
many were moved to tears by tho doc
tor's thrilling and eloquent words.
(He said' the problgal son of the Bi
ble lived again In "ohe smart” young
man of the present. He complimented
the .father on his course in allowing
his boy to take iris departure, saying
that this was the only way to cure
him. No use to talk to a boy who
knew more than his father.
He described his departure and spoke,
telling of hlB riotous living. In this he
bad plenty of friends, but afterwards
when he hungered, while feeding swine,
no man gave to him. Where were his
friends? OOne with Uls money.
Then he pictured the home-coming
making the contrast the way some peo
ple received their wayward sons, when
they closed the Uoors - on them and
would not let them in, and the recep
tion given by Che prodigal’s father.
'Some people taught -that God was
tike the Unnatural father, who-would
not receive his son .back, and who Anal
ly consents, If he prove himself sin
cere 'by-a long probation. That when
men came to God they had to pray to
reconcile God -to them through agoniz
ing prayer. But, said the evangelist,
this is a misrepresentation. .The father
of tihe parable Is a true likeness of the
heavenly father. He received the prod
igal wltn open arms and gave him tho
bent the house could afford. 80 God
was willing and anxious to receive tho
prodigal today. God docs pot need to
be reconciled, but you must bo recon
ciled to God.
fcJervices again tonight. Dr. Rornig
will probably tell the story of his own
conversion, and his chrld.'lan experi
ence.

RACES YESTERDAY. •
At Sheepshead Bay a 5 to 1 Shot Took the
Venial Stakes.
Sheepshead Bay Race Track, July 3.-
The .card was not specially attractive
here today, and the 6.0M people who came
down sank into'u lethargic state, from
which they did not arouse until the Jump
ers put In an appearance. The principal
event on the programme was the race
for the Vernal stakes. It was a grand
race. California, u 6 to 1 shot, took tho
running after a furlong and a half had
been covered, but was almost Immediately
passed by Annisette, the favorite. As the
horses swung into the stretch. Doggelt
began to ride California hard and grad
ually woro down the lead the favorite
bad attained, winning a clever race, amid
Intense excitement, by a short head.
The other feature of the day's sport
was tho easy manner In which Sir Excess
defeated St. Maxim In the third. Not
withstanding the fact that the former
ad been made a hot favorite, considerable
money was placed by the talent on St.
Maxim, who ran a good race until the
stretch was reached, when Sir Excess
easily drew away from him, winning by
a length and a half.
AT THE PAVILION.
It was a lively crowd that congregated
In the Pavilion yesterday, and It would
be a little remarkable If they didn't enjoy
themselves. They got the money, and
that's about the size of It. That Was
yesterday. But Just take a glancd at
the beauties that are on the boards for
this afternoon. What do think or ’em?
With such attractions don't you knew
there'll - be standing room only in tne
Pavilion during racing hours? Every,
visiting stranger, taking the cue from his
sporting Inclinations, will want to know
how the horses run. And can you blame
them? The Great Trial stakes—with a
guaranteed value of Ild.OOO—will oe de
cided. That's enough.
