fl&e Of Georgia Masons
slon of the present an-
ition yesterday morn-
idjourned at l o'clock after
*4 spent In one of the most
tended and most successful
sessions of the body In mnny years.
Grand Master Mcysrhardt was In the
flty last night and several of the offi
cials remained over until today toic the
departure, but th6 larger nxmher of
the lodge representatives left for their
homes Immediately after the session.
Yesterday’s sosslon was still largely
attended and the work of the morning
was full of Interest on account of the
fact that It consisted of reports from
some of the most important commit
tees of this body. Among these was
the report of the finance committee.
This report showed about $12,000 still
the treasury of the Grand Lodge af
ter the heavy expenditures of complet
ing the Masonic Home. The Grand
Lodge set aside for emergencies a sum
$5,000 for Its own use and n like
amount wan set aside for the Masonio
Home. Besides this there was above
1,000 yet in the treasury. The con
tractor has been paid $22,000 for the
erection of the home and the other ex
penses of this Institution have been
sufficient to raise the amount to $25,-
000. The annual expenses for the
Grand Lodge this year have been & lit
tle above $14,000. This has been a nor
mal year In expenditures excluding the
$25,000 spent on the Masonic Home.
After the report of the finance com
mittee followed those of the relief
committee, the committee on Jurispru
dence, the committee on appeals and
grievances, and tho committee on char
ters. The committee on general wel
fare had a very encouraging report to
make to the body, this showed Ma
sonry In Georgia In a most prosperous
condition. No committee on general
welfare has been able to make such a
strong and enthusiastic report In a
number of years. t
This report reveals that Masonry In
Georgia is growing rapidly and tho
general conditions of the order Is far
better than any report has shown In
the pnst few yenrs. Tho growth has
been from material which has made
tho Masonic ranks strong.

The report of the committee on me
morials was full of touching tributes
to tho dead of the past year. Among
these tributes was one on the death of
Rev. W. E. Mumford. The committee
was especially careful to remember
the work which Rev. Mr. Mumford
had done In founding the Georgia In
dustrial Home. This Is probably tho
}ast tribute that will be paid to this
dead member by the Masons of tho
state. The chairman of the memorial
committee was U. H. McClaws of Sa
vannah.
Contribute to Orphans.
The children of tho Industrial Home
hnd been brought to the hall on the
previous day, but the building was so
crowded that It was deemed wise not to
nttempt to carry them Into the grand
lodge hull, and they did not return y<
teraay. hut the Masons remembered tn
by making contributions during the day
for tho home. The exact amount ha.l not
been learned last night on account of the
contributions nt several different places.
At the first collection yesterday morning
above fifty dollars in cash and two bar
rels of syrup were contributed to tho
home. At the fair grounds the Masons
also contributed largely to the Georgia
Industrial Home, ns Indeed they have
done throughout tho present session.
Attend Fair.
At the opening of the sesston yesterday
morning. President J. W. Cabanlss of
the Macon Fair Association extended an
Invitation to tho members of the grand
lodge to attend the fair yesterday, after
the work was over. Tho statement was
made that all would ho passed Into tha
grounds on the Masonic badge, and Im
mediately after this announcement was
made tho body voted Mr. Cabanlss
thanks.
Accordingly after the work of the day
wns done ana t'ae grand lodge hnd ad
journed, many of the Mnsons went to the
park ntnl took In the attractions, spend
ing considerable time viewing the exhib
its. Many of the Masons have been con
stant visitors to tho grounds nt the park
for the three days of tho sessions of tho
grand lodge.
Successful Session.
It has been stated on nil sides that tho
present session of the grand lodge has
been one of the most successful In Its
history'. Many of the visiting Masons
have taken speclnl pride In the dedica
tion of the new Masonic home, and this
session has been a very interesting ono
to all Georgia Masons on this account.
Special attention has been given to tho
completion of this home for a long time,
and the grand master has also tnkon
5 rent Interest. One of the greatest ad-
Itlons to the cause of Masonry tn the
state has been this home, and those who
have labored for Its establishment have
been made glad to see It completed.
The departure was taken yesterday
with the feeling decidedly a general one
that tho grand lodge has done more nt
this session In all of Us business Inter
ests than nt a former sesston In n long
period of time.

It used to be considered that only
urinary and bladder troubles wero to
ho traced to the kidneys, but now mod
ern science proves that nearly all dla-
saaea have their beginning In the dis
order of these most Important organs.
Therefore, when your kidneys are
weak or out of order, you can under
stand how quickly your entire body 1s
affected, and how every organ seems
to fall to do Us duty.
If you are sick or "feel badly," begin
taking the great kidney remedy. Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because ns
soon ns your kidneys begin to get bet
ter they will help all the other organs
to health. A trial will convince any
one.
I cheerfully recommend and endorse
the Great Remedy, Dr. Kilmor's
Swamp-Root, for kidney trouble and
bad liver. I have used it and derived
great benefit from it.. I believe It has
cured me entirely of kidney and liver
trouble, from which I suffered terribly.
Most gratefully yours,

The cure for these troubles Is Dr.

"Good news travels fast," and
thousands of bad back sufferers In
Macon are glnd to learn that prompt
relief Is within their reach. Many a
lame, weak nnd aching back Is bad no
more, thanks to Doan's Kidney Pills.
Our cltlsens are telling the goods news
of lheir experience with the Old Quak
er Remedy. Here 1s an exarpple worth
reading:
Mitchell Love, blacksmith who lives
i the outskirts of Amerlcus says con
cerning Doan’s Kidney Pills; "My
back had been hurting me for a couple
of years past. I thought I had rheu
matism and wan rubbing It with lini
ments and taking medicines prescribed
by doctors, without benefit until I was
utterly disheartened. It did not make
any dlffetenr* what 1 did I had that
same old pain. Home one spoke to me
about Dosn’s Kidney Pills and though
kind, I went to J. C. Dodson's drug
kind. I went to J| C. Dodson’s drug
store In a habitual sort of way and got
a box and tried them. I had not used
them three days before the rheumatism
left me. I kept on taking them until I
have not khd the rheumatism or the
backache os you call It since, then.
They are certainly the real thing for
backache."

"Your effort to override the verdict

of the president In answer to one sent
by the judge to the president June 11,
