The county commissioner)! have ex-
preaaotl their desire to comply with the
known wishes of the people.
The last several grand juries have
made recommendations which, In the
minds of the commissioners, were not
best for the county’s Interest. This
statement was made by one of the
commissioners recently In an Interview
with a Telegraph reporter.
The commissioners, however, do not
wish to disregard the will of the peo
ple.
It has been represented to the board
of commissioners thut the Reople want
a bridge built across Swift Creek at
Fletcher's mill. Grand juries have re
peatedly recommended auch a bridge.
The commissioners Investigated the
matter, but found the coat would be
too great In vlow of the great length
required to put the structure abovo
high water mark.
Several people have been drowned at
the place, and this fact was urged as
a potent reason why a bridge should
be built.
On Friday the commtasloners, sever
al members of the road board, an ex
pert bridge builder, and a few other
Interested parties went out to the place
to tee If a suitable brtdgo could not be
built with a view to letting the water
run over It when the creek was swoll
en. After full discussion. It appeared
to be the opinion of a majority of the
commissioners and others present that
nothing but a long bridge would an
swer the purpose. It la now the pre
vailing opinion that the long bridge
will be built In the near future.
Bald Chairman Davis of the county
commissioners yesterday: ”1 am not
sure that the commissioners will build
a bridge over the creek at that place:
but I think we will be justified In do
ing so. In view of the many demands
made on us* by the grand juries and
various cltlsens Interested In tho mat
ter. Our better Judgment tells ua that
It ought not to be done, because of the
great expense, but we will hardly de
pend on our own Judgment under the
pressing circumstances and numerous
demands." ,

WILL DRAIN THE SWAMP.
Tiie Commissioners Will Hare to Taka
tho Initiative in Passing
the Law.
WILL YIELD TO A PETITION.
The Only Csnrae Threagb Which the
County Comululonui C un Uetthe
Authority fs Tabs Part 111
Draining tha Ittaup.
The bill authorizing the county com-
mlMloncni to use the county chain-
gang to drain the swamp will be In
troduced at the next aeaalon of the
legislature.
The commissioners could be Induced
to take tho Inlallve, and advertise tho
bill themselves, If enough pressure Is
brought to bear; In other words. If
they become convinced that the de
mands of the people warrant an ac
tion of this kind on tbelr part
It Is true they hesitate to make a
law that will Increase their pow
ers, but ss those who have been meet
active In making the demands for the
drainage of the swamp have been slow
to point out the way whereby the
thing can be dune, some of the com
missioners have expressed themselves
as willing to drain the swamp by
any means at their command.
The commissioners have shown that
they are helpless, and cannot drain
the swamp by authority of any power
vested In them under the present laws,
and the proposed special act author
ising the use of the chulngang tor the
purpose Is the only means of which
they have any knowledge.
A petition signed by a reasonable
number of representative citizens
would be sufficient Inducement for tbe
commissioners to advertise tbo pro
posed special act and place the matter
in tbe hands of one of Bibb's repre
sentatives.

It Is Interesting, especially to the
fruit growers to witness the great
rivalry between the railroads for. the
fruit and melon business.
The Telegraph has within the paet
few days published some fast ached,
ules run by the various roads that
are catering to fruit shippers. These
schedules, as has been stated, 'are the
fattest ever made, and are doing much
to encourage the fruit Industry of this
section.
The old reliable Georgia road has
not been mentioned heretofore as a
bidder for the fruit business, but the
following fast time certainly proves
It to be a formidable opponent In the
field:

In a lecture to women recently Dr.
Hartman concluded his remarks, In
substance, as follows: No one knows
better than Dr. Hartman how much
the women suffer with diseases pecu
liar to their sex. No one knows better
than he does how many of them suf
fer with auch diseases. Patiently, hope
fully, wearily and often silently, they
eke out a miserable existence year
after year.. No martyr In poetry or
heroine In romance makes a more
touching appeal to the human sym
pathy than tho woman burdened with
the cares of a family, trying to carry
tbe extra load of some tormenting
and ever-present female disease. Dr.
Hartman’s sympathy for such la un
bounded and his willingness to help
them limited only to his power. To all
such he would say: Write him, giving
him a careful description of your
symptoms, and he will promptly ad
vise you what to do, and continue to
correspond with you until you are
well. He will direct every detail of the
treatment by letter without charge.
The medicines he prescribes you will
bo able to get at the nearest drug
store.

portunity for relief. Every married

shown him In the past he doubtless
expected to get oft with a nominal fine
but the recorder fooled him, putting a
fine of 325 or forty days on the gang
on him. The sentence enraged Howell
who exclaimed: “Do you sentence me
to work on the chain gang forty days?
Why not make It ninety-nine years?”
The recorder would doubtless have
passed even this over but Howell grew
abUBlve and he was called, back and
given 100 days on the gang. Then
Howell was sorry he had spoken, but
the recorder stoop pat.

Champion Debate,
Athens. June 15.—(Special.)—The
board of visitors made their report to
the trustees at noon today, but just
what recommendations were made is
not known.
It Is known, however, that the board
has decided that girls should be ad
mitted to the University, but this will
never be concurred In by the trustees.
The same recommendation was made
once before, but tell through with a
dull, heavy thud. This dose is likely
to go tbe same way. The trustees
don’t want the University ft mixed col
lege and will not hesitate to say so.
Governor Atkinson reached the city
by an early train this morning and Is
taking an active Interest In what Is
going on on tbe campus, and it might
be remarked right here that there is a
great deal going on there, and when
It fully develops will make some
mighty Interesting and racy reading.
Some of the higher officials will play
star engagements, but it is in no shape
to print now.
THE COLORED COLLEGE.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon the com
mission of the Georgia State Industrial
College for Colored Youths,- located In
Savanah, Ga„ met In this city, with
Hon. E. W. Meldrlm of Savannah In
the chair. Besides the chairman, there
were present Judge W. R. Hammond
of Atlanta. Georget T. Murrell of Ath
ens, Professor Otis Ashmore cf Savan
nah and P. J. Cline of Mllledgeville.
Chancellor Boggs has active control
of the college and each and every
member of the commission agrees that
a splendid work Is being done lor the
colored people. The college is for
males exclusively and the special feat
ure Is Industrial education, manual
training. There are now nearly 100
students In attendance, and a large
Increase Is expected next session.
THE CHAMPION DEBATE.
There was a large attendance at the
chapel tonight to hear the champion
debate between the Phi Kappa and
Demosthenlan Socleltes. The question
debated was:
Resolved, That labor unions are
productive of more evil than good."
The Phi Kappas, who had the af
firmative. were represented by Messrs.
J. G. Pitman ,H. W. Nalley and I. J.
Hoffmeyer; the Demostheoians by
Messrs. C. M. Walker, C. A. Wedding-
ton and H. S. White. '•
Some exceedingly strong points were
brought out by both sides and the de
bate was thoroughly Interesting to the
large audience. After carefully con
sidering and weighing the speeches,
every one of which was above the av
erage.
LEE LANGLEY'S DIPLOMA.
While Mr. Lee Langley, who is well
known In Macon, was taking a law
course In the University, he represent
ed an outside paper and wrote several
sensational articles about some of the
students. The faculty took a hand
and Mr. Langley was given the ulti
matum of giving up his correspond
ence or leaving college. He "hose the
latter, and now he comes forward and
asks the trustees to give him his di
ploma. It Is understood that he has
a good chance of having his request
granted. His friends hope that he will
be successful.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.
Chancellor Boggs ' recommended to
the board of trustees that the literary
societies be left entirely under the con
trol of the students, but there are
members of the board who are con
vinced that the only way In which
the societies could ever be made to
succeed would be to put them abso
lutely under the control of the faculty,
making debate a part of the curricu
lum of the University and making it
necessary for a student to obtain a
certain mark therein before he could
get his diploma.
The board of trustees will give this
matter a great deal of study.
NOTES.
The Senior class exercises were to
have been ‘held this afternoon at 3
o'clock, but as the proper arrange
ments had not been made they did not
take place. This Is regretted, os these
exercises are always of an Interesting
nature and highly enjoyed by the pub
lic. It Is understood that they will
not bo held at all this year.
The engagement of Dr. C. H. Herty
to kites Sophia Schaller has been an
nounced.
Soon there will be an addition of
twenty-five teachers at the Normal
School. The president has returned
from Tlfton. Ga., where there were 400
teachers In convention.
Col. T. J. Shackelford of this city
will deliver the commencement address
Tuesday before the high school at
Montlcello.
It Is understood that Mrs. Wingfield
