CAMP 8MITH HA8 TAKEN UP THE MATTER AND THE MOVEMENT WILL PROBABLY BEGIN TO TAKE DEFINITE 8HAPE—DAUGHTER8 OF CONFEDERACY MAY HELP. At the meeting of Camp R. A. Smith on Friday night, the subject of the monument to the women of the south was brought up by a lettar received from Mr. J. F. Hodges, who feels a deep interest In the matter. A committee was appointed to take It up and see what could be done. Hut It Is probable that the views of an old vet published tile other day will flt the caso better than anything that can be done. In effect this suggestion la this: The veterans undertook to build a monument to the women of the south during tha war. They raised some money, they gave all they could give, and by hard work managed to raise enough to lay the base on the little park In front of the auditorium. Then j they realised that death had so thln- i ned the ranks, and that the death roll 1 Im growing larger nnd larger with the • panning years, and furthermore that I tho weight of these passing ytars Is ! rradually flattening their pocketbooks, that they had reached their limit. Thus ! thf. granite base stands on that little park, in its present shape a monument to an unsuccessful effort to build the j monument to which they would be glad (to take off their hats to before death reaps them all. This la the situation, brhfly told. To place a suitable shaft upon that base requires more money than the old grixsfed brigade can raise themselvi The old veterui alluded to made the NUggfi'tlon that as the women to whom the monument was Intended to be erected are the mothers and grand mothers of the ladles forming the Daughters of the Confederacy. an ap peal should be made to them to come to the a.MHlstanre of the veterans. That there has been some hesitancy on the part of these ladles to a!d In this movement was known to the late Hen. Stephen D. Lee, as ho wrote In 1904: "For some reason, our movement to erect a monument to our patriotic Con federate women, who shared with us all the hardships, sacrifices, and trials of the great Var between the states, has not met with the success it de serves; nn<l mostly because cur glori ous women have discouraged the work —saying, no! Let us build monuments to our heroes—we want no monument* for ourselves.' "I would therefore earnestly urge and request, and appeal to every veteran cf our great association, nnd to every WMngham’sWarehoase COTTON FACTORS other lover of the south, and our glorl ous women, to give every assistance to General Walker and hla commit tee, who la worklnr for a grand and j patriotic object, and to aid our sons, i who have ao nobly assumed thla au- I preme object. Help him and them. * and I feel euro that the efTort wlU be crowned by a most deserved •ac cess.” He was writing to Gen. C. Irvine Walker who Is Interested In either one grand monument for the purpose, or a aeries of state monuments but it showed the hesitancy of the ladles and their reasons for It. It wrb at Gulfport that Gen. Wal ker. speaking in the Interest of hi* own plan, said: ”We hive learned that It was the men behind the guns who made the renown of our generals; but I tel! you the true credit was due to the girls behind the men behind the guna. Daughters take that position now—get behind us now and make us shoot so straight and so often, that we and you, will have the glory of having erected these monuments to the women of the Confederacy—let ua show In permanent and everlasting form, to all the world and to all generations, that the g*rU of the sixties, who were behind the men. behind the guna, were the beat and noblest, the purest and truest women who ever blessed this fair earth/ Let us also show that their RUbllme heroism and God-lfke devotion has been appreciated." It Is to these women that the Ma con veterans wanted a monument, was to them that they worked so hard to raise the money with whlph was placed In position tho granite base that appeals to the people In its mute way for the shaft. Gen Walker favors a certain model for these monuments, and he will soon go to Washington to approve tho mod el that has been made there, but th-> design for the Macon monument has been drawn and accepted by the mon ument association. The replicas of the monument favored by Gen. Walker will cost $5,000; tho completion of tho Macon monument will not co'it half that sum. But the Bibb veterans are In hearty sympathy with the plans of Gen. Walksr; but what they want now and all they can do la to make the effort to complete the monument here already begun. Tho veterans hope that the Daugh tars of the Confederacy will overcome the objection mentioned by Gen. Lee and come to tho aid of the local camps of veterans In tho early completion of the monument at Macon, so that Its unveiling will form the principal fea ture of tho coming 26th of April.

Poplar street has been In the lime light for several days because of the controversy over tho pnrkn In the atroct, hut Saturday night and yester day morning It waa wry much in the firelight. The first of these lights wan, an stat ed In yesterday's Telegraph, In tho furniture atoro of Elrod & Oduni, 4to Poplar, next to 8tovn Wright's drug store. This occurred shortly after 11 o'clock, and waa confined to the middle of the store. The fire was dlscov In time to prevent Its spread, nnd the loss will amount, in the opinion nr those who are supposed to know, it about fifty per cent. There was about $5,000 Ipsuranre on the dtock In the store. The huatneaa had been purchased by Messrs. Elrod A Odum only two or three weeks ago. The building belongs to the Order of Railway Conductors, and Is not dam aged. The loss to thev stock was caus ed by the heat blistering the furni ture. Origin of fire unknown. The second fire waa registered at 2:41 yesterday morning. This fire !l*.l Its work more effectively, completely 'wiping out. the ten thousand dollar stock of Messrs. McClelland A 'Berg, and damaging the building, belong*ng to the estate of I. IT. English, to such nn extent that only the walls can ,be saved. 'It was about 1:30 that two em ployes of The Telegraph were at the corner of Cotton avenue and Poplar street. Just about to aay goodnight to each other, when there was a sound of crashing glass In the direction of the drug store of W. E. Shelverton. These gentlemen said to each othe» that some burglar was trying to break Into a j>awnahop again, this having been the method of breaking into the ■place oli three separate occasions, and they decided to investigate and If possible lend a hand to Justice. Bui almost Instantly there came a sheet of flnnio and a volume of smoke from the front of the burning store of Me Ctelland A Berg. To the fire head quarters, only a short distance away, they hurried. They bunged on the door, nnd every horse In the house knf*w that something was wrong and arose on their haunches and stamped the door with such A noise that the sleeping firemen hustl'd out of their beds as quickly as If the rfong had sounded, coming down the poles like squirrels. The department understood from what the gentlemen had said that the fire In the store lower down the street lmd broken out afresh, and off they started to the furniture store where the fire had broken out tl\c night before, but when they turned Into Poplar street they naw the biaxe, which by thls time was a considerable < The flames were aa In a frolic, roll ing backward nnd forward In the store, scampering over the Inflammable stock on either side of th*e extra wide room while the front doors nnd windows with the glass broken out served only as a means of escape for the smoke. It waa not long before four streams were being poured on tho Inside, the firemen having an unobstructed oppor tunity. but th® flames played tricks on them. They would die down under the deluge of water to rtao up again and start their frolic over the store. Four times this occurred, and then a broadside of water was thrown and th* flames conquered at last.

The terra "mlcrobef refers lo a plant or f.:r,gl &'.»o called bacteria. A microbe Ik so small that it can only bo detected by tho aid- of a microscope. Some microbes are harmless, while others produce va rious diseases, and derive their titles through the form of tt-elr growth or because of the diseases they crtatdr which diseases are Infectious or con tagious. Prof. TJnna, of Hamburg, Germany, and Dr. Sabourand, the leading der matologist of France, discovered that a microbe caused baldness, and their theory has time and again been am ply verified through re««arch experi ments carried on through the ob servation of eminent scientists. This microbe lodges In the Sebum, which is the natural hair oil, and If per mitted to flourish, It destroys the hale follicles, and In time the pores en tirely dose and the scalp gradually takes on a shiny appearance. When this happens there Is no hope of the hair growth being revived. Dandruff Is a contagious disease which a microbe causes, and later produces Itching scalp, falling a air and baldness. Dandruff Is caused oy the microbe diseasing the sebaceous matter, which dries up and pcaJes off. Sometimes the cuticle surround ing the hair allows the natural oil of the hair to. force its way between the flakes of scarf akin dlreet to the hair, and the microbe bating between tho flakes force them apart and they scale off aa dandruff. We have a remedy which positively will remove dandruff, exterminate the microbe, promote good circulation in the scalp, tighten and revltallxe the hair roots, grow hair and cure bald ness.
