U will ibe gratifying to the people
of Macon to know that there will be no
change In the personnel of the Georgia
Southern's officers.
There la no railroad entering the
city (With a more competent comple
ment of officials than the Georgia
Southern, and every one of them 1»
for Macon first, last and all the time.
A Telegraph reporter yesterday
called on Mr. Willis Sparks, the gep-
eral manager and ex-recelver of the
road, ond In answer to .die reporter's
Inquiries, Mr. Sparks said that there
positively would foe no changes In the
officials of the campany. That he had
a fore, 1 of subordinates that could not
he surpassed and he could see no rea
son why a single change should be
made. 'There Is nothing else to be
sold," said Mr. Sparks, “except thst
the noime Is changed from the Georgia
Southern Railroad to the Georgia
Southern Railway,"
In the dispatches sent out from At
lanta concerning the reorganization of
fit* road nothing Is said about General
Manager Lane, that tills havlng.been
transferred to Mr. Sparks. From'good
authority, however, the Telegraph
learns that Mr. Lane will be superin
tendent of the road and iwlll perform
the same duties he Is now pcrormlng,
the only difference being that his title
will be changed.
There as an air of cheerfulness about
the Georgia Southern headquarters
yesterday titratt plainly told of the
satisfaction everybody there felt at the
result of the reonronlzatlon. Nono of
the officials had felt seriously alarmed
about their positions,'but there was a
certain amount of feeling of anxiety
that waa relieved by the announcement
of tho plan.

Yesterday In the superior court was

ny cases. Besides sending up two or
three negro burglars and receiving a
pica of guilty. Judge Hardeman fined
three negro women 33.30 each for bois
terous oonduct In the vestibule of the

woman who recently killed her hus
band with an nxe, while he was sleep-.
Ing, was to hsve been tried, but the
bearing was put off unktl the case of
the State against Gus Walker was dis
posed of. It Is expected to come up for
hearing this morning. Ida has never
denied the killing, but always speaks
of It aS freely and unconcernedly as
If she bad done nothing out of the
usual. She freely confessed to the ar
resting officers When they first took
charge of her, and has since told the
story do numbers of other people. Ida
Is not supposed to be of sound mind,
and It Is Intimated that her attorneys
—appointed by the court—win entor a
plea of Insanity.
Gus Walker, whose case occupied the
entire afternoon, is being tried for as
sault with Intent to murder. Gus Is itlte
negro 'boy who shdt Jim Italey a short
time ago. The Shooting occurred In 'the
Godfrey district. Raley, as testified by
some of the negro witnesses, remon
strated rather severely with the negro
for attempting to kill Ratey's dog on
Raley's land. The witnesses testified
that RSiley struck the negro with a
stick, when the negro turned anil nred,
the ball taking effect. Messrs. James
Bknint and John R. Cooper are ably
defending the negro, attempting to
show that the shooting was done In
self-defense. Solicitor Felton tries to
prove than the negro shot Without
cause, Mr. Raley's actions being only
Intended to drive the dog away. The
animal was attacking the negro. The
effort Is made also to show that tile
negro shat before Mr. Haley came close
enough to use a stick oa Gus even had
that been his purpose.. The court ad

Gives the Carnival a Liberal
Contribution.
Secretary Altmayer Is sending broad
cast over the country circulars adver
tising the great Georgia Peach' Carni
val. These circulars aro going Into
every state In the Union and wilt draw
the attention If not the Individuals to
whom they are addressd, to the car-
•nival. •
On each of these circulars Is a large
red peach over which la printed the
reading matter Only one of the circu
lars Js Intended tor foreign distribu
tion. It states that the Georgia Peach
Carnival (will be held from July 1 to
July 20, Inclusive at Macon ond that
It will be a skat* exhibit Of beaches,
apricots, apples, pears, Japan plums,
grapes, watermelons, etc., all arranged
to . show the advantages of oeorgta to
foreign home Beekers, investors, fruit
commission men and all others Inter
ested. It states that one of the objects
of the carnival Is to show Georgia
ugaltnst California. "The queen Of the
harvest smiles and the hand-maidens
Joyously bear the burden of an over
luxuriant crop.” it says. It also states
that there will lie music, military pro
cessions, balloon ascensions, races, ad
dresses by 'Iprumlitent speakers, Arc
wonks, etc. The carnival management
will reserve space for the exhibits of
counties, corporations or Individuals
and pay the freight
The other circular is in tho nature of
a circular letter, tl Is addressed to
the fruit growers and requests them to
make exthlbflts and arouse .heir country
and frlneds to do so. It adds that if
the men »ne too busy (the ladles can get
up the exhibits.
Secretary Altmayer now gets more
mall than a half dozen large-bulsnesa
houses combined and the budget Is
growing dally. He Is giving his whole
time to it and tt keeps him busy-
"I wish you would urge upon the com
mittees appointed to solicit .members
to band In their reports as early as
possible," said Secretary Altmaiyer yes
terday. “You see as It is only three
committees having reported, we don’t
know how many members tho Young
Men's Bu-f m-w League has, nor who
(bey ate flnd consequently wo are all
In tihe dark as .far as the league is con
cerned. Of course this docs not set the
reach Carnival .back one bit but It is
necessary for me, as secretary of the
league to know how many members
Kve have and who they arc and how
much money we halve.'’
MaJ. Winters, the liberal hearted and
energetic manager of the Consolidated
street railroad line yesterday Eave the
carnival '3200. Several otheri gentle
men have given 350 and other sums
shows that 4here Is no danger of the
carnival falling for lack of funds.
From what can be learned It Is gen

INTRODUCTION OF '"SFLITO. .
"Split" la a (term used In England
for a half-pint bottle which is likely
to become Americanised, because
Apolllnarla “splits" are now being in
troduced here and blds'falr to be as
well known and popular on this side ae
they are in England.
The bottling of ApoUlnarlo Water
In half pints or "hpllts" ts said to be
due to the Prince of Wales, who ex
pressed a wtoh to receive the water In
bottles of this elx*. Apolllnarla "splits"
have since become a feature In the
London clubs.
■Many people when not wanting
is much es a pint, wtll be glad to re
ceive a half-pint bottle Instead of a
glass, thus being sure to obtain the
water fresh and genuine.—New York
