At thla 1 time will occur the election of officer* and It ta thought likely that CharJe# W. Boyer will ba deposed, his suc- I cessor being Mr. W. A. Jones, of Jacksonville. The latter Is assured of the votes of Macon. Jacksonville and Chattanooga, and 1* favorably regard cd by Columbia. Augusta and Colum- bus, the former especially. R'a hard to see how Boyer can be elected. When the first annual meeting of the sporting writers of the South At lantic League la held In Savannah ItV January, the following papers will be represented: Macon Telegraph. New*: Jacksonville, Times-Union. Metropolis; Charleston. Nltri and Courier. Post; Columbia, State, Record; Augusta, Herald. Chronicle; Savannah. Morning News, Tress; Columbus. Enquirer- Sun. Ledger; Chattanooga. TJi News. Star. There will be at least twenty-five newspaper men in attendance. They will organise the South Atlantic Sport ing Editors’ Association, will adopt uni. form scoring rules, elect officers and generally make themselves known. Lewis and Wohlleben are scouting throughout the west for material for the Macon club. Lewis haa already secured a star outfielder from th* Chi cago city league. Savannah signed Hank Mathewson, a brother of the famous Christy. He | was with the New York Glanta for Macon and Columbia. The South Atlantic will be an alto •»ther different league next season from what It has been.

This is true be cause in the heated season every pore and outlet of the skin is open, and a constant, copious evaporation carries off with it a large percentage of the impurities and poisons which produce Catarrh. But at the first sign of cooler weather the sufferer’s comfort ends ; the skin does not secrete as freely, a congested condition of the system takes place, and soon every miserable symptom of Catarrh is harassing and causing discomfort to the unfortunate ones. Catarrh is a deep- seated blood disease, onewhichnoamountof local treatment will ever reach and permanently cure. The beneficial effects of washes, sprays, inhalations, lo tions, etc., are 1 only temporary, and when left off the old condi tion returns because the blood is infected with catarrhal matter and impurities. This inflames and irritates the mucous membrane and tissues and pro duces the symptoms of ringing noises in the head and ears, mucus in the throat, head aches, watery eyes, partial deafness; sore throat, general impair ment of the health, etc. To cure Catarrh permanently the blood must be purified, and the system cleansed of all morbid matters, and at the same time strengthened and built up. Nothing equals S. S. S- for this purpoa:. It attacks the disease at its head, goes down to the S bottom of the trouble in the blood, and makes a permanent and lg cure. S. S. S. removes every particle of the catarrhal matter from the circulation, making this vital fluid pure, fresh and healthy.

Gorman stop ped off at Victoria, and to.his arnaxe- ment found there, buried in one of tho music stores (Hanschlld & Co.) un old- fashioned pipe organ, one that has a history of Interest to every loyal American. The organ, it seems, came from an old Episcopal church at Go liad. Texas, and had been accepted in trade by the firm when the church bought a new organ. Goliad Is a small town In the south- rrn part <rf Texas near the Mexican border, whose history Is the history of the Texas Republic. It was at this same church, listen ing to the strains of the organ, that a body of Texans were surrounded, who were given the alternative of sur rendering or of having the church brought down over their heads. Their surrender under conditions of parole, and the subsequent treachery of the Mexican troops, when the Texans were lined up and shot, was afterwards made one of the most potent battle cries of the republic: "Remember Go liad." and "The Alamo" Is a never-to- be-forgotten cry In Texas. When Gorman learned the history of the organ that was hid among a pile of rubbish tn the store room of the music store, he Immediately open ed negotiations for Its purchase and bought It. The/organ will ba one of the big exhibits of the forthcoming produc tion of "Faust.” which he Is sending on tour the present season with Rosa bel Morrison as Marguerite and Joseph Callahan as Mephisto., They will play at the Grand Opera House on Saturday November 28th. for a matinee and night performance. Florence Brooks, soprano, has been engaged for Morrison's "Fhust.” Miss Brooks has op* of tha .sweetest and most powerful soprano voices on tha American stage. FLORENCE GEAR. Detroit Time*. Attractive, vivacious, smartly gown ed and equipped with a pleasing voice, Miss Florence Gear possesses all the attributes necr*?ary to make her in terpretation of the name part In the three-act irutcal. comedy. "Marrying Mary" a success. "Mary" and her numerous husbands are holding forth in the Lyceum theater this week, and the revival ought to be attended with good results from the box office stand point. Most of the musical hits nf the ori ginal production, which Marie Cahill and her associates made memorable, are retained and have lost none of their cat chines*. Miss Gear and her competent leading man. Harry Ben waa loath to allow the curtain descend on the second act. The same was true of the "Do. Re Ml. Fa.” duet with Richard Karl, th# Co!. Kulpepper of th# current production. Mr. Kart also scored an Individual hit with hla song. "The Lest One Is Best of All.” The cast Include#, beside* those mentioned. John Moor#.

Wilson as “Mots von Frleburg” In "When Old New York Was Dutch.” the latest Wilson play which has prov. ed such a great success this season, will be the next offering in this thea- tey. Mr. Wilson's wonderful voice, the rich endowment of nature, has been so constantly and so rapidly add ing to his fame that he now occupies a foremost position on tho American stage and enjoys the attention of an Increasing set of admirers distinctly hla own. This in addition to a mag netic personality, an actlng ability iliac Is really to be envied and a stage presence that Is as pleasing as It 1$ unique, has served to mark him as tho real ambassador of German dialect, and crowded houses dot hfs seasons' tours as naturally and abundantly aa flowers In spring. Were there noth ing more than to hear him sing such beuutlful new song# as "Helen Che Old Chimney Corner." "Auf Wilder- sehn Frauleln." "Whispering Breexo” and "Songs of the Camp,” many an audience would feel well repat 1 for the time and expenditure in gjlng to hear him. But the fact Is that these gems of the musician's art are Inciden. tal to and the especially bright spots in m. finished production parMclpatr.l In by a capable supporting company, while every stage accessory In the way of effects and scenery that pictures quely round out a picturesque play lend the force of their presence. All these arranged for and carried outun- der the capable direction of that vet eran of threatrical management. Sid ney R. Ellis, explain why there are never any dissatisfied audiences ln the Wilson train. PAUL GILMORE.
