MISTAKES DYSPEPSIA MAY CADSE ROOSEVELT SCORED BY AFRO-AMERICANS BALTIMORE. June 37.—President ■Roosevelt and members of his offt’clnl family were haqdled without gloves by speakers at the tenth annual meet ing of Afro-American Council, which began a three day’s convention here today.

The dys peptic may easily come to believe that he is a sufferer from heart trouble if wind on the stomach causes irregular action of the vital organ. The lungs and kidneys are sometimes affected also by stomach trouble. Heartburn, hiccough, nightmare and waterbrash, or sour risings- In the throat, are all symptoms of stomach disturbance which disappear when the cause is reached and the stomach toned up. ARGUMENTS COMPLETED IN THE 80UTHERN CASE ASHEVILLE, N. C., June 27.—In the railway rate suit of the Southern against the North Carolina Corpora tion Commission today Walker D. Hinas finished his argument for the Southern and Chief Counsel A. P. Thom also spoke for the company. Mr. Thom was followed by Judge Shepard for the commission. The feature of today’s proceedings was an attack by the commission's counsel on Auditor Plant’s affidavit in regard to the cost of doing business in North Carolina on the ground that the report showed such cost to be greatly in excess of the samp officer's report to the commission before the people reduced the rate law. The case closed with Judge Shepard’s argument. HURT! RAISED 130,00(1 FOR COLLEGE VALDOSTA, June 27.—Valdosta’s citizens today raised 230,000 In a few minutes for the new State College, to be established here, and a few others guaranteed that the amount would be raised to 250.000. Ex-State Senator W.-st, who was a leading spirit In the movement, telegraphed Governor Ter-, rell this afternoon that a suitable site of fifty aores had been secured and that 280.080 would be added to the amount. The site is located on the Valdosta street car line, and Is high rolling ground with splendid drainage and admirably adapted to the purpose. The street car company, of Which Col. West Is a leading spirit, gave the land and a subscription of 22.500. Mr. George Him, gave $5,000 and a dozen citizens gave from 2500 to 21.000 with the promise to double the amount If necessary. The trustees of the school, the Governor, and others, stated that they thought Valdosta ought to put up forty or fifty thousand dollars for It and the action today Is a response to their suggestion. The site is worth approximately 228.000. 500 CHINESE WERE BI1B IN THEATER VICTORIA, B.

Resert to the Bitter* promptly. It ♦ill cure Heartburn, The Canal Project. To the Editor of The Telegraph: I have read the interview of Senator Bacon with deep Interest. It should go far In arousing the Interest of the 80,000,090 people who will be directly affected by the proposed canal to con nect the Georgia coast with the Mis sissippi river and jits tributaries. One suggestion in the interview, namely. "Of course the work of con struction of the Panama canal will during Its continuance make it more difficult to Induce Congress to under take this work.” While this is clearly an argument which will ibe used, the Senators states with great force the Immeasurable Importance of the work as an answer, and his belief that It can be carried to a sucoessful issue if the people are properly aroused. Is not the very fact that the Pana ma canal is in course of construction. In the present emergent condition of the transportation problem, a problem growing more serious every day, an argument which may be well used with unanswerable logic In favor of the quick construction of this canal? The transportation problem Is now. In the last decade of the nineteenth century no such problem existed. The railroads were reasonably keep ing pace with the country’s growth. Close students of the development of the country here and there, notably Hon. Richard H. Edmonds, of the Man ufacturers' Record, Issued a note of warning, but no one was being hurt by want of transportation. But the growth of freights 110 per cent, against the growth of railroad mileage and fa cilities but 20 per cent In ten years have brought about “a condition, not a theory." Have taken the question of trans portation out of the domain of aca demic discussion Into a condition di rectly affecting every man's business, threatening many lines of business with disaster unless a remedy Is found. Tbe situation cannot be fully met by the existing railroads, or by those in course of construction, or by those planned. The country must either call a halt upon the wonderful prosperity of the past ten years, or apply the remedy. The people are already ap plying the remedy by Increased ton nage. Increased freights upon all our navigable rivers and canals. New York by quadrupling the capacity of her ca- I nal system at an expense of 2101,- 000.080. By the time the Panama canal Is completed, opening up wider markets for our surplus products, the increase In freights will have demanded an enormous increase of transportation facilities, for why create surplus which we cannot get to the coast and to the ship? To utHlse the Panama canal when completed to the full extent of which It is capable demands the utmost use of our waterways, connection of them where possible, demands this canal. By the time the Panama canal Is com pleted we will have over 90,000.000 people—possibly 95.000 000—a largely increased army of freight creators. The people can only realize in full measure. It aeems to me. the benefits fendly hoped for from the completion of the Panama canal, by preparing for It fully, ample additional Internal transportation to handle all freight with dlapauh. I can oonueive of no possible expen diture of money which will go as far as this will go In preparing the coun try for the great Increase of the com merce of all our Southern porta, prop erly anticipated from the completion of the Isthmian canal, so far to relieve the congestion of tragic in the sixteen States directly affected. C. P. GOODYEAR. Mrs. W. T. Clark, of 305 West Park street, Rome, N. Y„ says: "I had gas tritis. which brought on sinking spells for about an hour every morning. I was very weak and nervous and finally was compelled to take to my bed. . My Illness lasted about four months. For about half the time I was confined to my bed. I suffered greatly from the stomach trouble and nervousness, but what alarmed me most was the sink ing feeling at tho heart. "I had read about Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and when some of my friends recommended the pills very highly, I decided to give them a trial. I bought one box and by the time this was used up the sinking spells ceased. I felt better, but continued taking the pills until I had used twelve boxes. I stir keep the pills In the house, for I be lieve that they are a splendid medicine. I always recommend Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills to my friends who are ailing, for I know that they will do all that Is claimed for them.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have cor rected serious disorders of the stomach have revitalized the nervous system and restored to health sufferers from severe disorders of the blood and nerves. For rheumatism, indigestion nervou* headaches, many forms weakness and debility. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are recommended even ordinary remedies have been tried without relief.

OLD INDIAN MOUND GIVES UP NEW RELICS As the old mound in East Macon which has stood so long as a monu ment to ‘Indian persistency or to the persistent efforts of some other race of mould-builders. Is being dug into, many relics of ancient customs are be^ ing unearthed. The shovel of progress as it uncoveru the 'hiding place of ancient diggers, brings to light some new relics each day. As yet It has not been ascertain ed whether or not there are any skele tons of ancient Inhabitant buried be neath the mountain of mother earth, but as the digging has only proceeded through but a small corner of the mound, students of antiques are ex' peering some startling discoveries to •be made as the mound is gradually removed. The sum total of the relics which have been dug-out so far consists of vases, axes, pottery and such impll- ments of Indian life. The work Is still progressing and the dirt is being re moved so that within a few days other relics may be brought to view.

June 26.—The fruit growers of this community are beginning to make shipments of peaches, and so far the returns have been very satisfactory. The outlook is that the price realized will .be all that the growers could expect. The crop of peaches is going to be very short of Elbertas and the early varieties. Mr. V. O. Marshburn will bo the biggest shipper from this vicinity, and it is now predicted that he will get about twenty cars, whereas ordinarily he would ship about one hundred. A num ber of growers have sold their crops on the trees, getting a fancy price and having already been paid in full. The shipments thus far have been the early varieties of peaches, which have gone by express. The Elbertas will .be sev-- eral weeks in getting to market Down in Express Alloy. Ever since Nealey Jones stole a shirt waist from Lizzie Jackson some time ago. Express Alley has been in a state of eruption. Nealey had both friends and enemies, and when shirt v.-aists are mentioned in the alley the air is surcharged with smoke, ashes lava and a sulphurous odor. This Is why Lizzie Jackson, who will never survive the loss of the shirt waist, and Dolly Clyde appeared before the Recorder yesterday morning. They were absolutely astounded when the court dismissed the case, and regarded It is a miscarriage of justice. But is was the lack of evidence. The Auto’ Cate Continued.
