pressed with official duties In connec

not a particle of holiday or rest for the
the past two years and had as a result
thereof a very unusunl experience of an
Illness during the summer. As a result
of this three physicians have earnestly
and strongly advised me that 1 must

for In an act of the legislature. Not
less than ten prominent citizens of
Cordele, Ashburn, Sycamore and Tif-
ton are registered at the hotels of the
city nnd will be busy this morning at
an Important meeting.
Several weeks ago a meeting of these
committees was announced to have
taken place In Macon, but at the ap
pointed ‘hour there were only two or
three men for the work nnd It was nec
essary to postpone It. This morning
the matter will be taken up without
further delay and some plane will be
proposed whereby boundaries may be
fixed and all parties concerned will be
agreed ne to where county sites shall
be, nnd other affairs connected with
the new counties will be discussed.
From Cordele Hen. S. R. Fields and
M. M. Hakes have come to be present
nn<f represent the Interests of that
town. Ashburn has the following
In Macon this morning to take part In
the work: Messrs. George M. Dan

matters to be settled and the meeting
of today will affect the situation very
materially. * It Is not known whether

Several of the most prominent citizens
of south Georgia will be concerned In
this meeting, and although It has been
kept strictly quiet and will be held to-
dny behind closed doors, the mission
of the visitors Is very generally known.
There Is a matter which will call the
commlttaes to Atlanta either this
morning or at a very surly time. This
could nor be learned on account of the
close guard which Is being kept on the
report* which are likely to be circu
late?! about the work of the commit
tees. It Is expected that the visiting
citizens will be In Macon several days.
Their work will require much time
and labor and the members of the com
mittees may rent rooms. a* waa their

Judge Emory Speer’s opinion In the
case of Putnam Hooker & Company
against the Forsyth Manufacturing
Company was Hied In the clerk’s office
in the Federal court here yosterJr.y.
According to this document the Cin
cinnati company gets judgment for
the um of $795.84 and Interest on this
amount from February, 1900. The
plaintiffs asked for an amount of $2,-
812.30.
The difference arose between the
two companies in September, 1899,
when it was claimed by the plaintiffs
that an order fo^ 75,000 pounds of cot
ton yarn at 11 cents per pound wa*
placed with the defendants in Forsyth.
The Forsth concern claimed that it
had promised to All an order for 60,-
000 pounds and would not All the or
der which the Cincinnati company
wanted because prices had gone up
after the order was placed, and before
was Ailed. The contract gave Put
nam Hooker & Co., the goods at a
price of 11 cents, and thm the demand
was mnde that the full 75,000 pounds
be furnished the price had gone to 16
cents.
In the meantime the Forsyth con
cern had furnished a part of the yarn
on the 60,000 pound contract, and It
was claimed to have been damaged.
Upon this claim the Forsyth concern
asked that the goods be returned, and
notlAed the company in Cincinnati
thnt the contract would be called off.
Thla was refused and Putnam
Hooker & Company still demanded the
yarn, claiming thnt the goods hid been
damaged in the warehouse of tho For
syth concern. In the menntimj an
other order had been placed t?r yarn
at a higher price. The Forsyth con
cern proceeded to All this order and
never completed the 11-cent order.
After a long dispute about the matter
the two concerns allowed the take to
go to the Federal court, and Judge
Speer's opinion in the case la the re
sult.
He gave Putnam Hooker A Com
pany Judgment for $795.64. In this
decision ho did not hold the Forsyth
concern to the 75,000 pound contract,
hut he held thnt it should pay ths Cin
cinnati company tho differenco in
prices on the amount of the 11-cent
order which was not Ailed. Thl* was
4*4 cents on the pound for ononah
goods to make the above amount. The
case was a complicated one, and the
decision of yesterday came alter a long
suit.

Catarrh of tho Kidneys a Common
Disease—Kidney Trouble Often
Fails to Bo Regarded as
Catarrh by Physicians.
Catarrh of the kidneys is very com
mon Indeed. It is a pity that this fact
Is not better known to the physicians
as well as to the people.
People have kidney disease. They
take some diuretic, hoping to get bet
ter. They never once think of catarrh.
Kidney disease and catarrh are seldom
associated In the minds of the people,
and. alas. It Is not very often associ
ated in the minds
of the physicans.
Too few physicians
recognize catarrh
kidneys.

Peruna strikes at the very centre otJ
