He Gives Up His Clerkship to Go to
the Legislature.
'At 3:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon
Hon. John T. Bolfculllet stepped into
the office of 'Hon. Joseph Dannenberg,
c?t*!kntan of the board of public works,
and tendered his resignation as clerk
of that body.
Mr. Bolfculllet was elected clerk of
Ithc board at fw salary of $1,000 per
year Immediately '^iftor the formation
of that holy under tie* new charter.
Ills recent election to the legislature
made i't necessary for him to reflign
the clerkship before going to Atlanta.
Mr .Bolfculllet was prompt to do this
nnd It is supposed that the twnrd will
necessarily accept his reaignaJtion. No

successors to Mr. Boifeuillet and It is
not even CtfUllk that another clerk

TORNADO IN ARKANSAS.
Much Dnmnso to Property, but No Fa
talities.
Arkansas City, Oca. 23—Reports Just
coming In Ml of the ravages of a tor
nado which struck Ctondttj Springs,

SULLIVAN REFUSER
He OfiddtH Not tIri-.ivt* Hi« Fate to
a Coin mi:ttce.
TIiecoDimllteo of a!x promluelit Dcin*
ocrata seiected to decide tvhetfaer or
not Capt Jero Hollis .should retire* from
the race for principal keeper of the
penitentiary, or whether Dr. Sullivan
should get out of the way met yester
day morning to settle tho fate of these
gentlemen.
Everything was in readiness to pro
ceed when Mr. B. AL Davis, a member
of the committee, pulled from h.s
pocket a letter wiiich knocked the en
tire proceedings into a hit.
The letter was from Dr. Sullivan and
flatly uncounted that, after conferring
with friend-, ii<- had decided to con
tinue hix,nico for principal physician
uf tin* ja11ite.1l.ary-and would r.-ni i-
to allow the eomuftttee to decide be
tween Capt. Hollis’ candidacy aud his
own. T-» say that tie* letter was a sur
prise Is putting it mildly. All that the
committee could do, however, was to
adjourn without action, subject to tho
call of the chairman, who assured ihe
committee that he would not do any
such thing.
Tills leaves Capt. Hollis and Dr. Sul
livan both In the race and presents
ttvo good Bibb county Democrats to
Governor Atkinson, asking for snug
places In the same branch of the
state's service.
Altough every one would like to see
both gentlemen appointed, tlie best
posted politicians nay this Is impossi
ble, us Governor Atkinson cannot afford
to appoint more than one man from
Bibb county to tv place in tlie peniten
tiary department.
Capt. Hollis’ friends do hot think
that his chances have been Injured by
Dr. Sullivan’s action, inasmuch as tho
candidate for principal keeper acted
very magnanimously nnd agreed to
step down and'out rather than,embar
rass Governor Atkinson, which action,
they say, cannot fail to bo appreciated
by tlie governor.
DEATH OF MRS. JEMISON.
This Good Woman Passed Away Yester
day at Crump’s Park.
Mrs. Sarah Jerolson, the aged mother
of Co!.**R. W. JenUson, died yesterday
morning; at her home at Crump’s Park,
three mile* west of the city. The end
came peacefully at 11:30 o’clock When all
her Immediate relatives were by her bed
side.
Mrs. Jemison’s death was not unex
pected. Hho has been on a gradual de
cline since one year ago, when ehe was
striven with paralysis. Sunday night
It became evident that the end was near.
She began to, sink rapidly at that time
awl lingered until the hour named yester
day morning.
She was one of tho noblest women that
Macon has ever claimed and universally
loved for her many noble traits. Only
two children survive her, Col. Jemison
of this dty and Mr. Owen Jemison at
New York city, the latter’of whom had
been telegraphed for when it became cer
tain that the good woman’s death wn$*
approaching.
The funeral will take place in Mllledge-
vllle, the old family home. Where, the re
mains will be taken today.
Mrs. Sarah 1 Caroline Jemison was born
in MiUedgevJlle in the year 1823, ^h'ch
made her 71 years old at the time of her
death. She was the daughter of B. P.
and Eliza Stubbs, members of one of the
most prominent families in middle Geor
gia. — -
In the year 1M1 she was married to R.
XV. Jemison, who has many years pre
ceded her to the grave . After marriage
she moved to Louisiana, but returned to
Georgia In 1870, locating in Macon. She
had lived here ever since.

The Captain of tho Floyd Rlflea Re-
signed Last Night.
At the company meeting hist night
Caph. J. L. Hardeman tendered his
resignation as commander of the
Floyd Rifles. Many of the members
were led to believe that Capt. Harde
man would refuse the appointment of
major recently tendered him and re
main wtth the company, and the an-
ouncement of his decision loot night
was <a complete surprise to may of the
boys. Capt. Hardeman ?rave good rea
sons, hawvver, why he should give up
the command of tho company. He will
stand examination at once for fche ma-
jorship recently tendered him. The
examination will he tendered by Oapt.
O. T. Kenan.

This seems to be the wte*h of two-
thirds of the members. Col. Wiley

REPORTED RESIGNATION.
Rumored That Mr. (Mahoney Has Left
the Macon and Northern.
It was reliably rumored last night
tha’: Mr. Ed Mahoney, tfho genial
frelghtand passenger agent of the Ma
con and Northern, 'had tendered his
resignation, to take effect at once.
Owing to 'the lateness of the hour nt
which the rumor became current the
report could not he confirmed. It Is
given general credence by prominent
railroad officials, however.

SOCIALISTS IN CONFERENCE.
High Salaries for Party Editors Make
a Discussion.
Frankforfcan-the-'Matn. Oct. 22.—The
Socialist congress today debated the
question of ithc payment of official sala
ries. Herr Bebe contended that It
would not be possible to pay able So
cialists salaries below the market
value of their abilities. Well executed
work was « necessity und a high-
class ot Intellectual labor Should re
ceive adequate remuneration. Several
delegates replied, taking the ground
that present salaries paid by the or
ganization to members of the relch-
stag were too high. The maximum,
they believed, ought to be flxed at .1,000
marks a year, with a view to putting
a stop to a dangerous Influx Df edu
cated mercenaries.
A heated debate ensued.
Before the debate began Herr Singer
read communications from leading so
cialists In Buda Posth and Vienna, ex
pressing the hone that the congress
would further strengthen the party.
The 11 ntiracial rooort was presented to
the congrem by Herr Gerisch.
Herr Legln protested against the pay
ment of high salaries to members of
the relchstag and members of the party
—declaring that ithe leaders had no
right to squander recklessly the pennies
of -the workingmen.
Herr Rebel retorted that tf the con
gress flxed the maxlm-um salary ait 3,000
marks a year, the entire socialist admin
istration would resign office. Fully
qualified editors, he said, could not be
obtained for that sum.
•Liessner of London deprecated the se
verity of the speech on the official sal-
ar.es and the management oft lie par
ty s funds He urged the adoption of
the principle acknowledged by the En
glish trades unions, to remunerate all
the officials adequately.
The majority of the younger and bet
ter educated delegates agreed with
him. August Bebel's effort to end the
debate by the usual means failed, and
eventually It was closured. All the
amendments .to limit salaries were re
jected and the report was adopted. The
foundong of ssocfalist workshops was
discussed, but beyond that no decisive
step was taken, as (ho delegates
thought tlie prospects of a new and
socialist campaign would be unfavora
ble to the execution of their plan.
The committee on credentials has
passed 221 mandatts and has cancelled
one. The success of tile Socialists m
the Belgium elections has elated the
delegates greatly. Every reference to
the Belgian elections.was cheered en
thusiastically by them.

tioned concerning the association. The

live bodies of Socialist workers allied,

Don’t Mince Matters,
but take all the help you can get. And you
can get more of it, with Pearline, than with
anything else that’s safe to use. Everybody
knows about Pearline for washing clothes. W«
talk more about that, because of all tlie wear
and tear and labor it saves, by doing
away with that ruinous rub, rub, rub.
But don’t let it’s help stop there.
With anything that will wash at all,
Pearllnc will save you something
in the: washing. Dishes, paint,
woodwork, marble, windows, carpets
(without taking up), milk cans, silver,
jewelry, etc.—these are only some of the
things that are washed best with Pcarline.
Feudicre and some unscrupulous grocers will tell yon.
“this is as good as" or “ the same as Pcarline.” ITS
FALSE—Pcarline is never peddled, if voor grocer sends
