YESTERDAY’S WEATHER
WAS CAPRICIOUS
Yesterday’s changes In the weather
were as numerous as the moods of a
village belle and certainly quicker for the
rapidity with which the atmospheric
changes took place were exceptional. First
It was wind and sleet, next a cold drlzxle,
and then It was all varied by a burst of
the sun and the disappearance of the
clouds. During the morning hours, be
tween € and 11 o’clock, the changes came
quicker than any of the quick-acts of a
rommedlan. While the sleet continued
to fall, a break in the clouds would take
place, and as a result the bearers of the
sky Juice would be whisked away and the
space in the heavens Just above their
former phjco would show fourth a wide
expanse of clear, blue sky fringed around
the edgea by white, downy clouds. By
1 o'clock these fringes had entirely dis
appeared and during the afternoon the
weather was serene and cool, not cool
enough to bo the slightest unpleasant, but
Just enough to give Jest to a stroll.

CANN'8 KIDNEY CURE CO., Phlla., Pa.
Messrs. John S. Hoge, Henry Lamar
and E. W. Gould have Just returned
from a trip through the states of
Pennsylvania and Ohio in company
with Mr. C. L. Hall of Philadelphia,
where they went for the purpose of
making an inspection of some large
plants where milk is being pasteurized
and converted into the various pure
milk foods. The principal product !s
pure milk in these plants and the pur
pose of the men on the visit was to
learn something of the process with
a view to establishing a plant of this
character In Macon.
The tr«o has required more than a
week and the result Is that the men
who went on the trip are very much
Interested, These three citizens were
to serve as a committee to investigate
and If the plan of establishing a plant
for the production of pure milk and
pure milk products found favor with
them, they were to so advise a number
of Interested men possessing local
capital and further action was then to
be taken.
Since they have returned to Macon
a very favorable report has been made
and today lt will be drafted into writ
ten form and presented. Mr. Hall has
been In Macon for about three weeks
discussing the establishing of this
plant. He represents the Industrial
Construction Company of Chicago, a
firm engaged In erecting sanitary milk
plants all over the country. The pur
pose Is to discuss this report with lo
cal capitalists and decide upon the
construction of the plant.
If enough local capital Is engaged for
the construction of the new plant, a
stock company will be formed In Ma
con and the industry will be started.
Milk will be pasteurized and Bold to
the public In Macon. Fancy cheese.
Ice cream and a high grade of butter
will also be made and sold. There will
be no other than local capital Invest
ed. The company will bo composed of
citizens of Macon and It Is highly
probable that the milk men of the city
\#111 take a large Interest. If the In
vestigation of the Industry results In
the erection of the plant.
Milk Is to be taken Into the plant
from the dairies and from people who
have lt to sell, no matter how large or
small the quantity. This will be test
ed, purchased and converted into the
use of the plant.
Those who have been investigating
have made nn effort to keep the new
enterprise from publication on account
of the doubt ns to whether such i
business could be successfully opera
ted In Macon. Now that the trip has
resulted in a favorable 'report, the dc-
talln have been more fully discussed.
If such an enterprise Is started In
Macon,” said an Interested party last
night, ” the milk from the dairies will
be purchased and utilized. It will be
te plan of thoso operating this busi
ness to purchase pure milk as far as
possible ond then put this through four
different processes before it is offered,
for sale. It will first be tested and
bought from the producer according
to quality. The plant will be fully
equipped for testing and determining
the Impurities and the quality of but
ter fat.
"The milk will be aerated in order
to remove all bad odors. It will then
be standarlzed,-*thnt Is made to con
tain a certain uniform amount of the
fats. In some Instances tho fats will
be added and In others some will be
extracted. This will regulatq. the
amount of oils In the milk which goes
out from the plant. There is also ma
chinery of the most delicate Invention
for this purpose.
"The next process will be clarifica
tion. The machinery hare is very In
teresting on acount of the novel pro
cess which Is followed. A small ves
sel in the shape of a bowl having a
small opening at the mouth and. a
large body Is kept turning at the rate
of seven thousand revolutions per
minute. Into this vessel the milk is
allowed to pour very slowly. Down
In the oval bend of the bowl such Im
purities ns dust, hairs and mntter from
ulcerated udders are lodged by cen
trifugal force. The milk comes out
as pure ns could be obtained through
any process of the kind. At this stage
however, lt Is only clarified.
"The pasteurizing follows. The
milk Is then simply sent through a
number of machines where It Is sud
denly heated to over 130 degrees, while
spread out In a thin sheet and aa
quickly cooled to 36 degrees, or an low
as possible not to be frozen. It Is then
bottled sealed and delivered to the
customer. The bacteria of typhoid
fever or any other disease which
spread In the germ form are killed.
All Impurities are cleared from the
milk when the last process has been
completed and !t Is absolutely pure.
It |s said that by centrifugual force
about one and one-fourth pounds of
sediment, hair and other material are
removed from every thousand pounds
of the milk and in the pasteurising
process germs of many diseases known
to travel by this sole conveyance are
killed"
It is stAted that the proposition will
be open for the formation of a local
stock company. If this proves a sue
cess, the enterprise will be started In
Macon. Messrs. Lamar. Hoge and
Gould will be further Interested and
also a number of men who have pro
mised to take stock. There Is at this
time a probability of erecting suca
a plant In Atlanta.
Of Interest to Mothers.
Thousands of little ones die every
year of croup. Most of them could
have been saved by a few doses of

Picket. San Francisco, Cal., writes:

croup and we thought she would choke
to death, but one dose of Foley’s
Honey and Tar relieved her at once
after other remedies had failed. We
are never a minute without It In the

INTERESTING GAME
The Atlanta Colonels, the team that
finished in second berth in the South
ern league race last season may possi
bly be under the direction of local ball
men during the coming season. There
are men in Macon, who, knowing of
Manager Powell's intention of selling
the Gate City franchise would make
the purchase provided that satisfactory
torms could be reached and place the
management of tho newly acquired
club In the hands of Mr. Felix Kohler,
president of the local club.
Several days ugo Manager Powell
made it known that lt was his desire
to let go the Atlanta franchise and
leave that part of the country. With
the franchise worth as much as lt is
and with such good attendances as
dolly attend the games In tha\ city
there is no doubt but that tho sale will
be transacted In less than three weeks.
Sines Powell hns been at the hend of
ball affairs In Atlanta great changes
to the good have taken place and under
his direction the popularity of the game
In that city has Increased almost 100
per cent. All these facts are known
to Maconltes and there are a number
of them who would Jump at the chance
of purchasing the franchise and place
a Macon man at the head of the team.
The name of Mr. Kohler hns been men
tioned and should the deni be made
he would undoubtedly bo the mnn se
lected to fill the managerial chair.
This then would leave the manage
ment of the local end In the hands of
Billy Smith. He would look after both
the players and the inside ends of the
local club.
Mr. Powell has yet to name tho prlco
that he wishes for his franchise but
lt Is thought that it Is near the 310,000
mark. Overtures have already been
made but more definite statements are
desired than thoso made so far.
Should the Atlanta franchise
purchased by Macon men this will In
no way effect the local club. The
plans for the season of 1805 In Macon
have already beon laid and whatever
deals might be made with the Atlanta
mogul will have no bearing here.
Overtures have* been made upon num
erous occasions to President Kohler
relative to the purchase of his fran
chise but he has declined to eel! stat
ing that tho experimental stage has
been passed*snd that baseball has been
favorably token by the peoplo
Macon.

Chief Patrick Murphy has stated that
he would not be a candidate further.
Up to this time he was a candidate,
but yesterday declined to be further In
tho race. This leaves the contest to
Granville Conner and Deputy Sheriff
Leo. JJ. Herrington of the city court.
Both men are working bard for the
position and members of the force as
well as other officials and the public
watch the race with Interest,
The contest will be decided at the
meeting of council tonight. Also at
this time the men on the fire depart
