THE MACON TET.EGRAPH : THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 28, 1904.
COM AND OATS
WERE BURNED
Fire Destroyed .laques A:
Tinsley's Warehouse
HEAT WAS INTENSE
Fire Broke Out Early This Morning in
Warehouse on Corner of Poplar and
Seventh Streets—Heat Was so In
tense as to Make Red Hot the Cor
rugated Iron Sides of the Building.
Fire broke out in the hay and feed
warehouse occupied by the Jaques &
Tinsley Com.oany early this morning
and before the flames were .subdued
the entire building tvas completely de
stroyed. The building stood at Seventh
'nnd Poplar streets, and was used sole
ly as a store room for hundreds of bales
of hay, large bins,, of oats and corn. As
soon as the flames secured hold of tho
hay the fire burned with Intense heat.
The hay which was stored in various
sections of the building burned furious
ly. giving off large clouds of black
smoke, which made It difficult for the
fire laddies to approach near the burn
ing structure. Several bins of corn and
oats were scattered at Intervals
throughout the building. Into these
bms the flames crept and it was with
only great difficulty that they were
quenched. Even after the flames were
subdued the piles of grain still gave off
thick clouds stifling smoke.
The building was a one storied struc
ture covered nnd sided with" strips of
corrugated iron. After the flames had
secured a good headway the walls of
the structure became red hot and from
them Issued intense heat. The streams
of water which were directed against
the sides of the structure crackled nnd
popped as they came Into contact with
the red hot sheets of Iron. Firemen by
the aid of hooks and axes soon succeed
ed in cutting holes through the sides
ol the building and* Into these openings
streams of water v/ere thrown against
the rafters and wood work on the In-
rid.'.
As soon as the fire men saw that
there was but little hope of saving tho
building they directed their attentions
in keeping the flames confined to as
small a space as possible.
Surrounding the building were a
number of structures that might easily
take fire should a hot spark happen to
strike the dry sides or roofs. But twen
ty feet distant from the flames was an
other of the buildings used by the
Jaques & Tinsley Co. In this building
was stored many valuable shipments
of goods. A board platform separated
the buildings and it was from the top
of this platform that the firemen work
ed. Just acros the tracks of the South
ern railway lay the Macon Cabinet Co.,
a wooden structure. Heaped In high
piles In close proximity to the works
v/ere hundreds of piles of lumber. To
keep sparks and burning fragments of
wood from reaching these lumber piles
the firemen directed part of their at
tention.
It required almost three-quarters of
an hour baton- the firemen obtained
complete control of the flames. Four
streams of water were kept playing
upon tho smouldering ruins for some
time after the flames had died down.
The alarm which summoned tho fire
men to the scene was Hent In from one
ox the automatic electric alarms. Four
companies responded to the cull.
Although no definite losses have been
learned It is probable that $2,000 will
cover all damages. This is covered by
Insurance.
Owing to the splendid service of the
Tennessee District Telegraph Compa
ny’s automatic fire signal tho local fire
companies were upon the scene of the
fire in a comparatively short space of
time after the signal had been turned
In. This system of automatic fire sig
nals has been In use In Macon but a
short time and its great value as a
property saver 'Was demonstrated last
n’ght. Had th» alarm been delayed for
even a short time there is no doubt that
the large adjoining warehouse would
have been completely destroyed.

a revolver and shot himself. The
wound did not prove futal at c
There was great loss'of blood and the
man was carried to his room, but
while the attendants were engaged In
an eifort to secure a physician, he
gained the door and left the house
A search was immediately Instituted
but after several hours has not prov
successful. His relatives fear that tho
deed has been completed and that
when Brittle Is found he will be dead.
Tho injury inflicted by the shot is
a serious one. so the man’s relatives
stated. They rear that Brittle bled to
death from the wound in the lung.
They are puzzled at the man’s escaping.
The police authorities were notified of
the affair and they have been looking
for Brittle, but to no avail.
Paul Brittle came to Macon from
Fort Valley. It Is stated that he
employed at Fort Valley only a short
while ago. but has since been doing
work also in Macon.
It is stated thnt Brittle had been
under the influence of liquor nil y
terday and had not become quiet when
he shot himself.

writes; “Before I started to use Fo

twelve to twenty times a night, and I
was all bloated up with dropsy and my
eyeslgght was so Impaired I could
scarcely see one of my family acroso
the room. I had given up hope of liv

worked wonders and before I had In ken
the third bottle the dropsy had gone,
as well as all other symptoms of
Bright's disease.” II. J. Lamnr & Co.

fight of five dnya wna waged over nom
inees nnd a platform by men who hnve
the interest of the country at heart, to
the tut-and-dried proceedings of the
Republican convention nt Chicago,

The convention met at the opern

order by lion. Jno N. King, chairman
of the executive committee of tho dis
trict.
Hon. Jno. Hodges was elected tem
porary chairman ami gave the conven
tion a short nnd strong tnlk. Mr. J.
M. Cullum was made permnnont chair
man, who presided well. In due time
Col. James M. Dupree nominated Hon.
E. B. Lewis to serve the district in tho
59 congress, and his address wan elo
quent. stirring the convention to Ita
depths. He spoke largely of J’ho great
progress of the United States.
A committee of one from each coun
ty of the district was appointed by the
chair to notify Col. Lewis of his nomi
nation.
Congressman Lewi* was very happy
In his address. He compared the two
party cpnventlons. One Democratic,

affair, the other dictated by
»i, the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure,
Prescribed by Physicians.
No one should confound Hyomel
with patent medicines that are adver
tised to cure catarrh. It Is sis far su
perior to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheup glass. Their
composition is secret, but Ilyomei gives
itB formula to all reputable physicians.
Its base Is the valuable eucalyptus
oil famous for its antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums nnd balsams, making a
pure llqu'd which, when used In tho

destroying and healing powers thnt re

Is It not foolish to try nnd cure en-

Ho Is de- The only natural way to cure this dls-
be with the good

This treatment has been po success
ful, curing 99 per cent of all who have
used it, that Ilyomei is now Bold by
Mallory H. Tnylor under an absolute

Tho complete Hyomel outfit costs
$1.00 nnd comprises a hard rubber In
