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. CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.

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.
