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.

Drawing his pistol toe moment be -Was Inside the door, tho lleutenint command'd the bungl-.tr fo throw tip his bands. The only answer l»e (jot -was a gnat of hot breath tn his face, iwhlcb convinced him -that the burglar Was right at him randy to strike. "If you move your hands I'll kill you.” sternly said the lieutenant, at;tho same time striking a ma-ich so ns fo make certain of his aim If It ins necessary ito shoot, but tho light of too muMi showed him that In- sle.id of a burglar confronting biro ho had to dual with a bunf-.Uftided cow. Tho cow, however, as soon as too sa-w tho light sprang between too llcutimunt ami 'the door, wltibh, -by the way, had become latched on the outside -when tho lieutenant pulled it. shut after him on entering. The feed room Is -only four by six foot. and there twos barely room for tho lieutenant and too cow, but. too cow took a notion she wanted It all, and us soon as toe twitch burned out ton made a lunge at the lieutenant, knocking ban np 1n a comer. She would toon back a step and come at him a®iIn like a catapult. Tho cow could soo In the d irk ami toe lieutenant could not, and for this reason toe cow had things alt her ■own -way.

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 e. which fact excited the Jealousy or many younger doctors. When a ne gro was conjured, he would Invariably send for this particular physician to remove the spell; when the witches had got Into a negro's hair, tots doc tor was sent for; when the tongue pal ate was out of whack, this doctor mutt Pu< It back. Ho always gave medicine, which either pleased or killed bis pa tients. The fact 6t bis great popularity was always attested by tbe constantly In creasing prominence of hla name In the negro cemetery. This physician is now beyond toe reach of any harm that might come from exposing hla method of adver tising, but since toe negroes hive learned that It may not always he too best doctor who gives the last med icine the physicians oT the present day are not so ambitious to see their names among the mysterious signs over a ne- cro ■ gray*. FURY OF THE FIRE FIEND. Grace Methodist Church Discovered lo Do in Flames Yesterday Afternoon. QUICK WOEK OF THE LADDIES Atfj«c«nt Properly Waa Endangered but Good Work by the Department 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- i tv ecu toe ceding and roof toatithe fire originated. Being near the steeple, the flainos found nitty headway and It was In too steeple where they wore prat dis covered. The clmrch Is insured, but for-how much .cotfld noit be learned last night. The damage done will amount ito about $1,000. R*v. Robert Kerr is pastor ,of toe church and the congregation, .while not a vary largo one, ts an enthusiastic one.

A man In a chatngang doesn't always look ns though he could be victimized by the oily tongue of a -book agent or Insurance solicitor, but book agents and Insurance solicitors are not usually men who wince under a frown and a savage "Not" They are accustomed to smile at everything and accept no rea soning but their own. Whatever may be a man’s mood—however much lie may be able to storm his wlfo and little children Into a state of trembling —ho must bow to the dauntless can vasser. Go out to the gang and look Upon toe callous faces of the convicts and then Imagine, if you can, any body talking lifts Insurance to one of them. But It Is said that an Insurance ipan went over to the gang tn East Macon a day or two ago., and tired • volley of his company's good features Into the earn of every man and boy around, whose steadily moving pick or shovel he could dodge.

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.” M'DONOUGH’S GOLDEN BELLS.

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. OH, WHAT A COUGH!
