Atlanta, Ga.,—The final paragraph
in the last chapter of the sensational
Monnish case was written Tuesday
afternoon when the funeral of Mrs.
Dr. Rosa F. Monnish was held.
Instead of being taken to K ansas to
serve two years in the federal pen she
was taken to a cemetery.
When Mrs. Monnish was arrested
charged with sending obscene letters
through the mail, there was a sensation
in Atlanta. When she was convicted in
the federal court there was another.

Newman Monday morning to serve two

Were Finished.

The annual Field Day exercises at
Georgia Normal and Industrial college
were held Wednesday and it is quite
safe to say that never in the history of
the institution has any event eclipsed
it in the way of enthusiasm. When the
rays of setting sun kissed the green of
the campus half a thousand girls went
wild and their applauding voices could
be heard well nigh over the entire city.
A new moon looked down upon the red
and black, and orange und purple, the
colors of the Junior and Freshman
classes, victors in the struggles of th9
day.
The exercises wore held under the
direction of Miss Rowena West,
physical director of thecollege.and Profj
R. H. Powell acted as referee. Misses
Boswell and Weller acted’ us judges.
The first event was basket ball and re
sulted in a tie of 8 to 8 between Seniors
and J uniors. The 50 yard dash was won
by Miss Rebecca Little, a member of
the Juniors. In the Freshman and
Sophomore basket ball contest there
was a tie, the score being 7 to 7. The
dodge bull game wbs between Freshman
und Sub-Freshman and was won by the
former by just two seconds, according
to the report.
The volley bail relay between Juniors
and Sophomores, the J uniors won and
between the Freshman and Sub Freth-
man, the Freshman won. Then follow
ed a contest in the same between J uniors
and Freshman und the Freshman won.
1 ho potato race between the Juniors.
Sophomore, Freshman und Sub-Fresh
man was won by the Juniors.
The best of spirits prevailed through
out the entire day and that night a
tired and happy Bet ot girls dreamed
about the buttles of other davE past and
perchance a few thought of the strug
gles in the days to be—the struggles
and contests which will be vast.lyj differ
ent from those of lust Wednesday.
Col. Patten, a

na, and desire toreo*
ommend yoUr rem
edy as an invlgorat-

also one of the boat
remedies that! ever
tried for rough*,
colds and catarrhal
complaints.”
Having read the above
testimonial, what conclu-
■»lon must he reached by any fair-
'minded, unprejudiced reader?
Is there any possibility that a man of the prom-
ineuce and reputation of Col. Patten could lie In-
tjneed in any such tilings if bo did not honestly lielieve
them to bo true?
^A0>^J{ememher, be says cot only that he recommends Pernna as an Invig
orating spring tonic, but also ns one of tho best remedies that lie lias ever tried for
Soughs, colds and catarrhal complaints.
What are you going to do with such evidence? Aro you going to turn away
from it and listen only to tho talk of people who probably never saw a bottle of
Poruna, certainly never tried a bottle of it, who have nothing else to do but to
tulle about other people’s affairs? Aro you going to listen to such people as that,
instead of accepting tho testimony of those who know?
Them may be a few people so constituted as to ho ablo to perform such a
mental feat. But tho sensible people, tho reliable people, tho brawn and brain of
the world, who are governed by principles of justice and common senso, aro going
to accept tho clear, pointed nmt undoubted testimony of a man of national repu
tation who knows wlint ho is talking about.
I’eruna Is everything he says Ills. It Is ail Invigorating spring tonic. Ttta
tlBo a g( iod remedy for roughs. We have man y Iestimenials attesting to 1 his fact.

BIG ILLICIT STILL
FOUND BY OFFICERS
Deputy Dave Kltey Destroyed Large
MoonsMnlng Outfit Near
Milledgeville.
The Macon Telegraph of Wednesday
says: —Deputy United States Marshal
Dave Riley returned yesterday from a
foray In the woo<]« between Milledge
ville and Sparta, where lie clptured and
destroyed a regularly put up illicit still,
but failed to find the moonshiner.
The still was one of tho best made,
and was set in brick, showing that it
was intended to be a permanent affair.
From the amount of oak wood that had
been cut in the vicinity it was taken
that the still had been in operation a
lo"g time. In some way its presence in
the community had escaped notice. It
had been recently operated, as consider
able beer, from which the whisky was
made, was found.
