CRY II GEORGIA FOR
MORE RESIDENCES
COLUMBUS. Ga„ March 26.—Tha
Georgia and Alabama Industrial In
dex will say In Its regular weekly
Issue:
"The cry In Georgia and Alabama
cities and towns for more residences
Increases In volume and Insistence. It
is not an artificial cry for booming
purposes, but is earnest and is the re
sult largely of the establishment of an
ever-increasing number of manufac
tories, and the accompanying com
mercial expansion. Never before
■were so many tracts of land in and
adjoining Georgia and Alabama cities
eub-dlvlded and sold In lots as Is be
ing done Just now. and the number
will Increase because of the demand.
Among the notable suburban land
deals of the week are the purchase of
nearly 600 lots In a Montgomery, Ala.,
suburb b.v e land company at a coat
of about 1200,000, the purchase of 50
suburban lots at Selma Ala., and the
purchase of a large suburban tract at
Milltown, Ga , to be sub-divided.
Among other land deals of the week
that reflect Industrial progress are
the following purchases: Six thous
and acres of mineral land near Tusca
loosa, Ala.. 100 acres of timber land
near Hatley. Ga., 1,500 acres of coal
land near Wilhite, Ala., and 400 acres
of timber land In Wilcox County, Ga.„
for II2.000 cash. A $15,000 land com
pany has been organized at Birming
ham. Aim. and a $10,000 land company
at Ashville, Ain.
"A company which proposes to
build a railroad northward from
Thomasvllle, Ga., will apply for char-
! I regard It important that all pa
triotc military bodies equip them
selves not only to drill, to march,
mess and to shoot by methos which en
able them to take their places beside
their comrades in the regular service,
but that they endeavor to adopt and
employ as nearly all of their admins
trat ve reforms and methods as the
condtons of their services will permit."
In conclusion Col. Ho stand said that
he would be glad to see as a require
ment for any position In the classified
civil service of the Government an
honorable discharge from its military
or naval service, or from the organized
millta of one of the States or Territo
ries.

Effect of Wall Street Flurry.
ATLANTA, March 28.-—Several well
known Atlanta bankers end capital
ists were interviewed today on the
possible effect of the present Wall
street stock market flurry on the
South. For the most part they were
optimlstio and did not believe that
any of the disastrous effects of this
panic would reach this section of the
country. This view was strongly
voiced by President R. J. Lowry, of
tho Lowry National Bank, and Presi
dent Asa G. Candler, of the Central
Bank and Trust Company,
"A rich man’s panic." is the way
this Wall street turmoil was charac
terized by Mr. Candler. He and Col,
Lowry spoke especially of the cotton
and iron interests of the South, which
have in no way been affected by the
flurry and do not seem to he. There ie
no reason, they said, why a financial
flurry among speculators should in
anv way affect the South,
Capt. J .W, English, president of
the Fourth National Bank, was the
only one who seemed to take a pessi
piistic view of the situation. He said
ell the hue and cry that is being
raised against the railroads will have
a tendency to make capital very olosa
anti tight, and tho cessation of invest
ment and buildings, he considers, is
bound to have its serious effect.

after the landing of the first settlers at
Jamestown, Ve., a fleet of nine vessels,
carrying 600 passengers of all ages,

Virginia, far away aerpss the western
ocean.
The fleet wap under the command of
Captain Christopher Newport, and on
Newport's vessel were Sir Thomas
Gates, the newly appointed Lieutenant-
Governor of the Jamestown Qalony,
and Sir George Somers, who as an ad
miral was to assist in the government
of the colony and look after the "navy.”
The nine vessels made good headway
and nothing occurred to mar tha pleas
ure of the summer Journey until they
were within eight days of their desti
nation, when they were caught in the
tail of a hurricane and the "'Sea Ven
ture," with Newport, Gates and Som
ers and 150 people aboard became sep
arated from the remainder pf the fleet
and, after being torn and shaken by
the storm, sprang a leak. The plight
of the colonists beearne grievous and
hope had well nigh been abandoned

off the Virginia const.
Here the colony lived for nearly a
year as castaways upon a beautiful but
at least two-thirds of the year.
This condition is no doubt caused by
the long, severe winters experienced In
this part of the oontinent.
Therefore, when Peruna was discov
ered by Canadian people to be a relia
ble remedy for these catarrahal dis
eases. it at onee 'became a popular
medicine not only among individuals
and in families, but in the great Kvs-
pitals, where it was used as a prevent
ative and relief in hundreds of cases.
These Institutions d$ f!^. hesitate to
give their endorsement of the remedy
which has been so helpful in the treat

Among these institutions is that of
the Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave

When catarrh once fastens Itself up

Peruna not only promptly relieved
coughs and colds in their first stages,
but is equally prompt and efficient for
catarrhal diseases in the chronic -tage.
