NEW ORLEANS. La.. Jap. 10.—The

The Dunblainp lay 27 days at dock in

test is taken as a precaution.
There is a movement on foot to have
a bill introduced in the legislature at
the Coming session In June to amend
the charter of the city of Macon so
as to incorporate in the fixed laws of
Macon certain of the demands of the
| Anti-Saloon League that were made on
the mayor and council. One of the pro

! amendment refers to the hours of sale.
: and another to the limits within which

i to have fixed in the charter the maxi-
! mum license for selling whisky. It
is held by the advocates of this plan
| that if the charter can be amended so
as to cover th,> proposed liquor restric
tions a prohibition election may ho
avoided, or a hot municipal election
next fall on Anti-Saloon League lines
may be evaded. I know that the pro

NEW YORK. Jan. 10.—The National
1 Association of Baseball Leagues today
I made some revisions in the constitu-
! tion and re-elected its officers and
board of arbitration. Neither the Na
tional Association, nor its board of
arbitration, found time to take up the
matter of territorial rights for the tri-
State League, which is contending for
the Wilmington and Trenton fields,
wanted by the newly organized Atlantic
Leagu'd.
Rules were made prohibiting players
from joining other leagues than the
league with which they are playing
without the consent of the secretary of
the National Association. A new sec
tion was adopted imposing a penalty
upon clubs failing to report players
who have ''jumped" contracts.
Clubs are also to be penalized for
usln,
days without having a contract with
the player. A regulation was made
that all contracts with players should
he uniform, and there shall lie no “non-
reserve” contract entered Into save on
the consent of the secretary of the
national board and the secretary of the
national baseball committee.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 10— Ev an al-

By JOHN T. BOIFEUILLET.
I was asked yesterday what is the
tate flower" of Georgia. Strange to
Georgia has no "State flower.”
Though flowers grow here in rich and
beautiful profusion, both wild and cul
tivated, Georgia has never selected a
“State flower." Not very long ago
there was considerable discussion on
the subject and an effort was made to
agree upon some flower for Georgia,
but no positive conclusion was reach
ed. Women's clubs considered the
matter, and school children talked
about it, and newspapers published ar
ticles in favor of this flower or that
flower, out finally the whole matter,
like Richard Her.ry Wilde's summer
rose, was "scattered on the ground—to
die." My recollection is the discussion
developed the fact that the Cherokee
rose and the golden rod were in greater
favor than any other for Georgia's
“State flower." I think the Cherokee
rose led the golden rod. There were i every one of the county offlc
suggestions of the peach blossom and j
the cotton bloom. But inasmuch
our sister State of Alabama has se- of codes and law books, the books dis-
lected the golden rod as hef "State appearing so mysteriously as to excite

| Quite a number of States have adopted

WASHINGTON. Jan: 10.—As report

salaries to $12,000 a year, but the sen-

in the day the Attorney General had

Chronic Constipation Cured.
One who suffers from chronic con
stipation is in danger of many serious
ailments. Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup
cures chronic constipation, as it aids
digestion and stimulates the liver and
bowels, restoring the natural action of
these organs. Commence taking it to
day and you will feel better at once. ,
Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup does not
nauseat or gripe and is very pleasant
to take. Refuse substitutes. H. J.

Stevens. Fletcher Harris and Albert
Adkins, young white men, were held
; for the grand jury today in a prelimi
nary hearing on the charge of robbing

was found in a ravine near this city
on the morning of. January 2. Stevens
turned state’s evidence and testified
that Harris and Adkins robbed Thom
as while he was in a drunken stupor.
He acknowledged receiving part of the
money.
NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—Just after
he received a knockout blow In a box
ing bout here tonight, Charles Sinclair
was arrested by the police on a charge
of being a deserter from the Thirtieth
Infantry, United States Army. The
police learned that the alleged deserter
was billed for a “go" with Tom Geary,
a local heavyweight tonight, and sev
eral detectives appeared at the arena
during the contest. While the officers
were debating which of the pugilists
was the man, Geary gave Sinclair an
upper cut which put him out of the
fight. When Sinclair opened’ his eyes,
he was under arrest.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 10.—Arch
bishop Montgomery died this after
noon. The archbishop was operated on
for appendicitis a few days ago. He
rallied after tho operation and was be
lieved to be recovering when a relapse
occurred. He was in a state of coma
for some time before death.
If Georgia should adopt the Chero
kee rose she would have a beautiful
“State flower.” so in keeping with her
own stateliness, beauty and grace—a
flower of which the poet has sung. And
speaking of the rose in general, we are
told that “in the East this flower is
particularly esteemed. The Gucbees
believe that when Abraham was thrown
[ into the fire, by order of Nimrod, the
flame turned into a bed of roses. The
Turks conceive that it sprang from the
perspiration of Mohammed, and they
caused a rose to be sculptured on the
monument of all ladies that die un
married. The mythological writers say
that Apollo caused Rhodante, Queen of
Corinth, in consequence of her extreme
beauty, to be changed into a rose. The
first rose is said to have been given by
the god of love to Harpsocrates. the
god of silence, to engage him to con
ceal the amours of his mother Venus,
and hence it was made the symbol of
silence. A rose was always placed
above the heads of the guests in the
banqueting rooms, to banish restraint,
and to denote that nothing said there
should be repeated elsewhere: and thus
originated the saying sub rosa, under
the rose, when a secret was to bo
kopt. The perfume of this flower is
thus accounted for 'by the fabulous au
thors: Love, at a feast of Olympus, in
the midst of a lively dance, overset
with
nectar, which falling on the rose, em
balmed it with the delicious fragrance
it still retains. And Catullus thus ac
counts for the. color of this flower, it
having been originally white:

ence to the John Williams case, where
a man about to be hanged in Birming

habeas corpus, the Governor says:
'The indisposition of juries to sentence

to the conclusion that the hanging of

impossibility, and excites me to sug

Dispensaries were established In Ter

or more saloons out of business. The
dispensaries have yielded a large rev

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—Probably
never before in history have so many
chiefs of Departments in their reports
followed the cue of the President atul
appealed to the American people to
exercise caution. Secretary Shaw is
the latest one to take a leaf from the
President’s book, when in making his
report public he said:
“'There is no occasiop for alarm.
Let every man be of good
cheer and try to be conservative in
everything except thankfulness.”
President Roctsevelt and ever)' mem
ber of his official family recognize that
the unbroken prosperity of the last
decade has aroused a spirit of discon
tent that threatens to undermine tho
country’s commercial structure. It Is
recognized that envy has fed upon tho
attainments of the successful and the
demagogues have seized upon this
spirit of avarice and unrest to further
their own ends. As a result, the ex
isting discontent and criticism of all
wealth have grown to such proportions
as to occasion anxiety in the National
Capital.
The President was the first to voice
a warning against these conditions,
when in his message to Congress last
month he devoted no inconsiderable
space to a discussion of the relations
of labor and capital. He did not con
fine himself absolutely to the topic,
but gave it wider significance by point
ing to both employer and employe the
danger that lay in lack of friendly co
operation. To the people at large ho
voiced a solemn warning against
hearkening to the. voice of the dema
gogue whose oratory was turned
against all wealth, whether corporate
or individual.
Commissioner of Corporations Gar
field followed shortly after with his
report in which he echoed the warn
ing of the President and went further
by cautioning agitators that all cor
porations should not be judged unfa
vorably because of the illegal acts of
a few. In this tendency to condemn
unthinkingly and broadly all corporate
efforts. Mr. Garfield saw a real menace
to business prosperity. His caution
was no less strong than that of Presi
dent Roosevelt and was far more spe
cific.
Now comes Secretary Shaw, a man
whose hand is ever on The financial
pulse of the country, iwth practically
the same expressed fear. He would
have every man conservative, except in
the excess of the spirit of thankfulness,
and while he does not go greatly Into
detail in the expression of his fear,
the entire tenor of his report is cau
tionary.
Sec-retarv Shaw says that the In--'
creased prosperity of the country is
due entirely to the extraordinary trade
activity. While he does not go into
details! it is inferred that a great
amount of the vast gain in national
wealth is derived from foreign trade.
This foreign trade is made possible
through the consolidation of manufac
turers in different linos into larger cor
porations. lessening the cost of pro
duction and thereby insuring them a
share in the business abroad. B'ecause
of this, it is undoubted that Secretary
Shaw's' appeal for conservatism is
made to still the unwise agitation at -
present so evident against all forms
of corporate activity
