This dam is three hundred feet long, and gives a headway of twenty-six feet, and the volume of water gained is suf-, ficient to produce 1200 horse power. Eight monster horizontal turbine | wheels, geared on a shaft, will trans mit the power to two generators. These wheels have already been placed In position, and work is being done on j the power station. This will be com pleted by the time the work on the tracks and wiring for the street rail way and lighting system, thaj; is being I done in this city, is finished. The work of surveying and grading continues to j go on very rapidly on Green street, and the company hopes to have cars in op- j eration and be able to furnish the peo ple of Gainesville the bast rapid transit j facilities by Christmas, and put the i line in operation to Dahlonega next ] spring. To My Friends. It is with joy I tell you what Kodal j did for me. I. was troubled with my stomach for several mop ths. Upon be ing advised to use Kodol, I did so and j words cannot tell the good it has done j me. A neighbor had dyspepsia so j that he had tried most everything’ I told him to use Kodol. Words of grati- I tude have come tome from him because j recommended it-Geo. W. Fry, Viola, Iowa. Health and strength, of mind and body, depend on the stomach, and normal activity of the digestive organs, Kodol, the great reconstective tonic, cures aP stomach and bowel troubles! ndigestion, dvspepsia, Kodol digests anv good food vou eat. Take a dose | after meals. Robertson & Law. Breaks His Arm in Ball Game. Will Wallace broke his arm in a very peculiar way while pitching a ball game in Winder last Friday.
