THE LAST OF AN OLD WARRIOR.
Ills Jawbones and Tooth Arc Exhumed
In tho East Macon Road.
East Macon Is famous for Its points
of particular Interest. From her hill
tops during the war the valleys below
wero closely watched for the approach
of the enemy, Htid It wnu upon old
Fort Hill that many gallant sons of
the Confederacy enlisted In the service
of their country. For u long while dur
ing the war the forts on tho hill wero
used us a convalescent camp and re
cruiting quarters, around which clus
ter memories of deep tntcrcat to old
aoldlcm.
Much curiosity attaches also to the
Indian mounds nnd other evidences of
aboriginal life.
While working on the pubtle road
leading to the top of the hill yesterday
the ebatngang discovered a very soft
place at a short distance under the
clay surface. A mulo Bank Into a bog
where the ground hui| always seemed
to he as hard as unburned brick.
In order to remove this detect In the
road, It was deemed advisable to take
out all the loose dirt In the place. This
dirt proved to be sand, whereas all the
ground was clay. A pit was discovered.
It was about tho length nnd depth re
quired to bury a man sitting on the
back of a horse. In the bottom of tho
pit were found pieces of wood In a pre-
served state, and the Jawbones nnd
teeth of what might have been a man.
8everal pieces of Iron used for various
purows In equipping a horse were
found, and also m badly rusted portion
of an Iron ramrod.
It waa believed by some that these
were the remains of an Indian chief
who waa burled on horseback, nr.e and
equipments fastened In hla hand, pre-
jiaratonMo entering bis "happy hunt-
fithera wero of the opinion that this
waa simply a camp pit Bor the use of
' h « !» *« «lll during the
war, and that the teeth und Jawbone
were those of a hog. Thin-Idea wns

FAME FOR THE DOCTOR.
How a rhyslclan Advertised Himself
Without Violating Professional
Ethics.
Whenever a physician gives a pre
scription the druggist nils It amt puts
tho physician's name on too bottle.
When a negro dies tn some communi
ties his family and friends place alt
the bottles which contained his death-
dealing.physic on the grave. It Ls not
known why negroes do this, ns some
have one reason and some another. Pos
sibly the bottles are evidence needed
to satisfy old Peter that tho dead did
not appear at heaven's gate ot their
own accord, even If they do come be
fore they are expected.
But, for whatever reason the bottles
are placed on the graves, the attend
ing physician gets a good deal of very
cheap advertising. For, as the numer
ous acquaintances of Br'er 8o-and-eo
go fo shed a 'Yew drape o' remorse
o’er his ashes" tbty see the doctor's
name at close Intervals all along the
mound, and as tho cemetery gr
older, the effects of toe advertising be
come more apparent, for his name ap
pears on the bottles of an Increased
number of the graves.
A prominent Macon physician once
' ■ed a liberal practice among these

or many younger doctors. When a ne

The fact 6t bis great popularity was

FURY OF THE FIRE FIEND.

QUICK WOEK OF THE LADDIES

Confined tho FUmei to the
Church—Defoetiv« Flue#
The roof trad.steeple of Grace Moth-
od.st church on Onk ohreot, between
Fourth fttul Fifth streets, were discov
ered in a blaze last evening at <5:45
o'clock by a ipasjer4>y and an alarm
wJs immediately turned In from box
25, earner Fourth and Oak.
As soon as the apparatus In tbe dis
trict to which toe Are was located ar
rived on toe scene It was found neces
sary to call out the i-mtlro derpaKiuent
to save adjacent property and a general
alarm was sent in. The Are had gained
much headlway when toe Arst alarm
was given, but it avas soon checked naid
further progress snapped. The dinger
te adjiicent property was Imminent,
however, and it was only toy the veiry
best of work on toe part of the firemen
that tbe 'Are was confined fo the
church, which is a wooden structure,
as the wholesale grocery warehouse, of
H. D. Adi ms & Go. was only separated
by a four-foot alleyway on lone aide and
a frame dwenirg -was almost adjoining
on the othc* side. There waa great
danger of -the tall steeple on toe church,
whlch'wus u- solid mass of flame, fall
ing over on the adjacent buildings, as
at first * stream could not lie had to
reach to the 'top of It, but finally the
firemen on toe roof of the Adams ware
house managed to get a stream up to
tho top and as the fire was quenched a
loud cheer went up from the crowd at
toe g-idiut wbtk of toe firemen, as
many had expected anothes serious
conflagiu-t.on, that would take In H. D.
Aligns & Co.'s warehouse and all ad
jacent property.
It one of Uhe quickest and most
decisive fights with fire the Macon de-
pirimoat 'has ever had, and although
no one'believed'that a vqk"S'o of the
church could possibly be saved, the
firemen kept toe flames, confined to the
roof and steeple, and although both
were emclreiy destroyed, they saved the
building and did not allow toe adjacent
buildings h> even as much -as scottcU.
The -most generally accepted 'theory
as to ithe origin- of the fire is that it
originated from a defective flue.
Wednesday night Is tho regular prayer
meeting night of toe church and itoe
Janitor thad made a Are eady so as -t,»
have the church waun by the time toe
congregation assembled. Tho stove
pipe leads 'through -the oiled pine cell-
tug out through the roof, and it was be-

originated. Being near the steeple, the
flainos found nitty headway and It was

MEMORIES OF THE STRUGGLE.
To Perpetuate the Glorloils Name of
the Confederate Soldier.
As aide-de-camp to Lleut-Gen. S. D.
Lee of the United Confederate Veter
ans, CoL Wiley yesterday received a
communication setting forth In dela-II
the proposed plans for erecting build
ings and the maintenance of a memo
rial to "perpetuate tho memories of the
glorious struggle of the South for con
stitutional rights, to pay deserved
tribute to the heroic deeds of fallen
comrades, to furnish an inspiring ob
ject lesson to descendants and to leave
to posterity enduring proofs of the
courage, loyalty and devotion to duty
of the Confederate soldier."
It ls estimated that toe cost of the
proposed memorial will be $200,000,
which is to bo raised Iby subscriptions
to an incorporated body, under a board
of administrators to be composed of
nine surviving Confederate officers of
the highest rank, jvho w 111-receive do
nations and stock subscriptions. The
stock will be placed at $10 per share.
The administrators will meet at an
early date to formulate details of toe
National Memorial Association, when
survivors and their friends everywhere
will be given a complete knowledge
of the purpose, scope and extent of toe
movement. The reunion at Houston,
Tex., next April will' cause the per
fection of all preliminary details.
The Objects of the association are
to bring together all the various ex
isting memorial associations in the
South, inasmuch as "the memories of
the struggle of the South and toe evi
dences of her glorious prowess in tho
Acid are scattered broadcast over the
country.” Then “should they not be
collected and provision be made for
their preservation as a rich inheritance
for our children and a patriotic object
lesson for generations to come?"
It Is urged that as the ranks .are be
ing thinned by the scythe of time the
few'Tcmatnlng sons of toe Confederacy
should at once take the matter tn hand,
and labor for tho realization of Senator
Daniel's prophetic vision and Joyous
hope that the South would yet have
a "Battle Abbey,” tn which the figure
of Jefferson Davis shall be the central
object, and around which uhail be
grouped heroic relics of the battles of
the Confederacy, and tho pictured faces
and sculptured forms of the great and
true and brave men who fought them.
The South wants "an undying me
morial of the people who fought their
own battles In .their own way, for tlielr
own liberty as they conceived It, for
thetr own independence as theY desired
tt, and who need give to the world no
other reason why.”

THE NEBRASKA FAMINE.
Reported That the Troubles Are Over,
and Subscriptions May Cease.
The reports of starvation among tho
people of Nebraska created a sentiment
throughout the country wMcJT caused a
S reat effort to 'be made for their re
ef. The railroads did their' part iby
hauling carload after carload of pro
visions and various supplies free of
charge. Governors.of states, leaders In
all manner of pttblic charities took
active steps In the work of raising sub
scriptions for tbe benefit of toe suf
ferers. Everybody everywhere seemed
to feel It a Christian duty to do some
thing In the cause. Most distressing
stories of starvation were reported al
most dally, and 1n a civilized and Chris
tianized land tho people were moved
to a becoming response to toe appeals
for aid. Among toe most recent stories
was a case in which toe hunger fam
ished children of a desperate father
were found by the officers of toe law
eating the raw flour which the father
had stolffh because he could not buy it
—the children and their starving moth
er were too hungry to wait until the
flour could bo cooked.
Georgia did her part, and Georgia's
cities did theirs, and now that the an
nouncement has come stating that no
more aid is needed, all who so gener
ously helped will feel proud to know
that their contributions relieved
one of the most distressing bread
famines In the history of this country.
Information has just been received
by the Southern railroad at Macon that
nothing further need be done in the
matter.

It is said that on their way to SL Au

frail and a party of prominent New
Yorkers will stop over In Macon.
Through Its department of Immigration
too Southern railroad has been attract
ing considerable attention to Macon as
one of the most beautiful cities on its
line of road, and they have presented
Macon literature to these tourists, who
are not accustomed to see toe business
of a metropolitan city transacted
where toe hum of machinery, the rattle
of vehicles and the close, dense air ot
narrow, crowded streets are unknown.
With her beautiful parks and magnlft-
oent mansions crowning the hilltops
amid verdant foliage, Macon ranks
second to no city in point of attract
iveness for the visitor. If the present
plane work out, Count Herbert and his
party will drive around the city and
note the principal points of interest.
