BRiNOINQ OOLETHORPE
BACK TO GEORGIA
Concurrently with the move¬
ment on in Pennsylvania to bring
the remains of William Penn
from England toalinal resting
place in Philadelphia, The Sa¬
vannah News has suggested that
Georgia should put forth the
same effort with regard to the
bones of General Oglethorpe,
providing lasting sepulcher foi
them in the citv of Savannah.
Already work is going forward
on a monument to Ueneral Ogle¬
thorpe at Savannah, and the ar¬
gument is made that the most
appropriate place for his remains
would b« beneath this memorial
shaft.
W hat the name and the person
aliiy of Penn are to Philadelphia
and Pennsylvania, the name ana
the personality of Oglethorpe are
to Georgia. It is true that the
name of Oglethorpe does not fig¬
ure so prominently in the form¬
at appelations of this state as
does that of Penn with regard to
Vue commonwealth which has
.mplanted his name in history.
But in substance, and to all in¬
tents uiul purposes, each are
equally rated as the original
^sponsors for these two great nor¬
thern ami southern steles.
The strongest sentimental reas¬
ons obtain, therefor, why Geor¬
gia should honor Oglethorpe m
a 11. degree that Pennsylva
lionors the great quaker.
Hypi mdmg of English speak
^rofrres in Georgia, his uobii
v m making this state an usy
im for the oppressed of Europe,
fid bis executive participation
in the early beginnings of the
commonwealth, stand out as the
must conspicuous portions of the
career of Janies Oglethorpe. The
Heroism with which he ruet the
staggering problem of establish¬
ing an orderly government in
Georgia, tue sacrifices and the
h lf-obliteration that marked his
et urse at every turn, have be¬
come part of the traditions of the
slate’s history
It is not to be expected, of
course, that strong opposition to
the plan will develops in England.
Georgia should at least exhaust
every expedient toward payiug
the proper historic tribute to the
man who has woven into the fab¬
ric of our annels the noblest ide
a is.—Atlanta Constitution,
CHANGING DATE
OE REUNION.
Distressingreportes from Mem¬
phis as to i he large number of vet
tiuus prostrated with heat, and
aii of them more or less suffering
from the same cause, suggests
tin expediency of arranging fu¬
ture dates for the reunion with a
view to preventing recurrences
el t iteae conditions.
Whenever the reunions have
In yii held iu the summer season

civ U war are no longer young
men. They are unable to oppose
the extremes of weather tbe re
siHpowei with which they fought
through the four most strenuous
years in their careers.
It also seems unfortunate to
bring them together for purposes
of recreation and enjoyment un¬
der conditions which inevitably
make for results diametrically

it should be relatively simple
to set a fixed date, either in the
late spring or the middle autumn,
when the men who lepreseut the
most sacred of the south’s tradi
turns will not be exposed to
gerous and unnessary hardships'.

FUTURE OF CHILDREN
MENACED BY ALCOHOL
Atlantic City, .June 15.—Pre¬
facing his andress with the asser¬
tion that children of men and
women who use. alcohol are the
real victerns of the rum habit,
Dr. T. C. Alexander McNichol,
of Rome, N. Y., in an address
before the Society for the study
of alcohol and other alcoholics,
caused a great sensation by say¬
ing that “conditions in New York
public schools rival those of an¬
cient Sodom,” and that “degen¬
eracy, mental deficiency and oth¬
er drawbacks to the proper edu¬
cation of youths have incraesed
at a pace that threatens the fut¬
ure of the country.”
Dr. McNichol balmes much of
the evil on the taint of the alco¬
hol habit and disorders inherited
from parents who have been ha¬
bitual or even moderate users of
alcohol.
The assertions of Dr. McNichol
follow an investigation in which
30,000 children in New York
schools were examined in the
search for eauses for failure to
seep up with the standard in
stud es and the general spread
of mental degeneracy.
“Degeneracy and mental defi¬
ciency have increased at such a
rate that efforts made by the
board of education and the board
of health to combat the general
failure through special schools
have failed to keep pace with the
growth,” said Dr. McNichol.
And yet there are some .who
condemn prohibition.

the discussion of the proposed
organization, which is already an
assured success.
The establishment of an office

How lige Anderson Got Name
Tige Anderson was the com¬
mander of the Eleventh Georgia
regiment, that was mustered in¬
to service where the governor’s
mansion now stands, on Peach¬
tree street, July 3, 1801. it was
a pine orchard at that tune.
There were preseut a company
irom Murray county, who wore
yellow jeans uniforms, and while
the regiment was drilling for ser¬
vice during the afternoon the
young ladies would come out and
get tue boys canteens and cover
them up to keep the water cool.
Due of the boys that belonged
to tbe Murray company asKed
one of the young lauies u he
could escort her home; she re¬
plied that she did not stand m
need of any company, and, if she
did, she did not want a yellow
dog to accompany her. t he hoys'
of the regiment toon it up, and
t-iiat cjmpany earned that name
until the close of the war.
One afternoon, when the regi¬
ment was on dress parade, Uoio
nel Anderson, in a loud tone of
voice, said: “You three men in
the rear rank of the Yellow Dog
company, bring your guns to
shoulder arms. At tins the Gap
tain of the company took excep¬
tions, and said that if bis compa¬
ny were “yellow dogs,” Colonel
Anderson wal “UldTige.”
This statement is true, ai.d
happened right in front of the
governor’s mansion, the first
headquarters of the Eleventh
Georgia regiment.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local treatment, as the can¬
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf¬
ness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of
thr Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is sHlamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closeu, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflamation can
oe taken out and this tube re¬
stored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forev
*r; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is noth¬
ing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
