ATLANTA, July 26.—The first death
at the Soldiers* Home occurred this
morning about 6 o’clock, .vhen Mendel I
Levy passed away, surrounded Dy the |
officials of the institution and a num
ber of comrades, the guests of the
home. The occasion was a sad one, oa
it foreshadowed the end of all other
veterans who have gone to the home to
spend their last days on earth. The
death of “old man Levy,** as he was
best known among his comrades, was
surprise to any one, as the end of
his life has been In sight for several
days. X'eteran Levy entered the'home
In a feeble condition, the result of old
age, being 69. The deceased enter*-d
service of the Confederacy as a
member of company H, commanded by
Capt. T. B. Cabanlss of Forsyth, of the
First Georgia, commanded by Col. Ham-
vhlch company saw service 1’
West Virginia. Here ho remained
twelve months and was then trans
ferred to the Fifty-ninth Georgia, com
manded by Col. Jack Brown of Amerl-
cus. He enlisted from Marlon county
and made a gallant soldier. Since the
war he has been living near Buena Vis
ta, first* keeping a small store, then en
gaged In peddling spectacles.
Today about noon the remains were
brought to the city and prepared for
burial by Hllburn & Poole. The body
was taken charge of . by Congregation
A. A. of Russian Jews, and, according
to the simple ceremony of th^sa peo
ple, the remains were burled this af
ternoon at 4 o’clock in the Jewish bury
ing ground In Oakland cemetery. A del
egation consisting of eight old veter
ans from the home attended the funer
al as pall bearers. In addition to this
a detail of veterans from Atlanta Camp
159 was also present, ns all of the In
mates of the home have recently been
elected honorary members of Camp 159.
An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining-the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to bo
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing- the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling ono
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Us perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality nnd sub
stance, and its noting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, ns they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fio Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, pleaso
remember the full namoof the Company
printed on the front of every package.

Railroad Commission Met.
The railroad commission of Georgia
held a session this morning. All of
the members were present with the
exception of Commissioner Brown,who
was detained at home on account of
Illness. Judge Atkinson left a sick bed
to attend the meeting and when It was
over returned home, not feeling able to
attend to business.
The plans submitted by the Southern
railway for a depot at Reeves Station
In Gordon county were affirm**!, nnd
the plans for Improving and enlarging
the depot at Roberto, In Crawford
county, were also passed upon favor
ably.
Tho complaint filed by the Postal Tel
egraph and Cable Company against the
Savannah, Florida and Western was
read and action postponed until the
29th Instant, when the commission
will meet to consider the case.
Tho postponement was due to the
Inability of Mr. W. L. Clay, attorney
for the road, to be present, he being
detained In Savannah, where he Is try
ing an Important case in the superior'
court of Chatham county.
The complaint of tho citizens of
Thomnsvllle against the Plant system
was then taken up # for consideration.
Representative Tondrcn Mitchell nnd
Mr. Sparks of Thomnsvllle represented
the city of Thomnsvllle, while the
Plant system was represented by Mr.
James Menzles, general freight agent
of the road. The charges were that
Thomnsvllle was being discriminated
against In the matter of freight rates,
that the rats from either Savannah or
Brunswick to Thomnsvllle was higher
than It was to Albany, fifty miles far
ther away from either Brunswick or
Savannah. Their contentions were
found to bo true, and while the com
mission did not take final action, it did
Intimate that the Plant system would
have to rearrange their rates so that
Thomaavllle would not be discriminated
against. The commission dug up from
its records a similar case decided two
years ago. In which Mr. Menzics prom
ised to do away with the discrimina
tions then being practiced against
Thomaavllle by the Plant system.
Commissions Forurnr«lcil.
The following officers of the Georgia
state troops were forwarded commis
sions from the office of the adjutant-
general today:
Charles A. L. Cunningham to bo

XV. L. Calhoun, Prerident Board of
Trustees Confederate Soldlera’ Home,
Atlanta, Oa.—Dear Sir: In memory of
the day* when the friendship between
tho old soldiers In blue and gray was
so forcibly demonstrated by personal
acts of kindness as opportunities af
forded—when there was a temporary
lull In battle and we itreded coffee for
tobacco over the lines—when, In a
spirit of good fellowship the Ynnkoo
band would strike up “Dixie” and
“Johnny Reb.” would respond with
"Yankee Doodle," winding up, In con
cert, with "Home, 8weet Home;" In
memory also of the more recent days
when the rorw of the veterans of both
armies marched shoulder to shoulder
in defense of the honor of the flag of
our fathers—the members of O. M.
Mitchell Post, No. 1. of Atlanta, Grand
Army of the Republic, present the sc-
companying little token of respect and
esteem to the membYS of the Confed
erate Soldiers’ Home to defray the ex
pense of furnishing a room.
It carried with It more good will
than can be expressed.
May their lives be crowned with the

to us all, in the providence of God, as
a final result of the great vtruggle.
