THE MAYOR’S VIEW CONFIRMED CITY OFFICEHS REPORT M EM PLOYES MOT IN CENSCS. Slipt. Masnire Heporta 21 Firemen ■"* Their Families, .Ark re,cuU„ K lOS Persona, and the Director of Public Report* the Same .Number of Families -\Vith o Total of 33 Persons—Police Department Did Not Find Many Inenniueratril. Supervisor Hlnn Finds an Error a* to First Name on the List Fur nished Him. Mayor Myers appears to have been right In his contention, that, notwithstanding th* vigilance of the supervisor of the cen sus and his assistants, many people have been missed by the enumerators. In order to make a test of the correctness of his view he notified the heads of several of the city departments to instruct the members of their forces to make inquiry and report to their heads whether they, the employes, and their families had been Included in the enumeration. The department of public works and the fire department hade their reports yesterday. l According to them it seems that Just twenty-one employes were miss ed In each department, together with members of iheir families. The director of Public works reports twenty-one fami lies unenumerated, with a total member ship of fifty-five. Superintendent Maguire reports twenty-one firemen and their fam ilies unenumerated, with a total of 103 members. Apparently the firemen have large families. If the city employes have exercised care In obtaining their figures Mayor Myers’ contention Is amply supported. For forty two families, with a membership of 160, to have been missed in a comparatively small circle is not a good showing for the work of the enumerators. The twen tyone firemen and the eighty-four mem bers of their families make a total num ber greater than the entire membership of th fire department. _ Mayor Myers forwarded (he figures to Supervisor Blun with the request that he give the matter such attention and inves tigation as he may deem proper. Mr. Blun has not had time to do this as yet, but a casual glancing over the report of the tire superintendent showed that it was not without errors. Taking the first name on the list and looking it up in the sched ule of the enumerator for that district Mr. Blun found that not only had the party named been enumerated, but that eleven other people in the same house with him had also been recorded by the enumerator. He expects as he goes through the lists to find a considerable percentage of those reported to hove been already enumerated. At the same time he expects to find a good percentage who have been overlooked and will see that they are given prompt attention. Supr. Screven stated last night that he had Just made up his report and would place it in the hands of the Mayor this morning. The investigation by the police does not show anything like the results obtained by the members of the depart ments of fire and public works. Supt. Screven said that his reports showed only two houses occupied by policemen where the names had not been enumerated and one policeman living in a house where the family had been enumerated. Apparently the policemen, or their families, were more easily found by the enumerators than the other city employes. W ILL, INCREASE PRICE OF BROOMS. Broom Corn Crop Short anil None Plnnteil In Sooth, The Mattoon, 111., Journal, one of the papers devoted to broom corn raising in the West, publishes interviews with sev eral of the largest broom corn farmers, and every condition goes to show that broom corn instead of being lower this fall will undoubtedly go much higher in price. "The reasons are manifold,” says the Journal,” "foremost, there will be an act ual decrease in acreage over last year’s crop, which you know was insufficient to meet the demand. This shortage in acre age is due to the fact that farmers were frightened out of planting. The newspa pers all over the West have been shouting all winter about a flood and over-acreage of broom corn this season, and this, coupled with the fact that traveling men are advising farmers that broom corn wouldn’t be worth ten dollars per ton this fall, has ail had its effect. The regu lar broom corn farmers, not desiring to enter into the business on such an un profitable scale, have either cut their acreage In half or not planted at all. "Reports from Kansas, and in fact the entire West, report a greatly reduced acreage. The biggest standard county in broom corn raising (McPherson) shows a decrease of 25 per cent. It looks very much as If broom corn will be higher, and con sequently brooms will increase accord ingly.” An effort has been made for the past several years to Induce Southern farm ers to grow broom corn, but without suc cess. Any soil that will grow ordinary corn or cotton will produce a good yield of broom corn, which, at the present price, is a better paying crop than cotton. BEFORE THE RECORDER. Justice Hnrtrldgro Had a Horen or More Cases to Dispose of. In the Recorder’s Court yesterday John Leo, who attempted to fake with a card trick, two country negroes, an account of which was published in yesterday’s Morn ing News, was turned over to the City Court on the charge of an attempt to de fraud. P. Farley and Annie Conroy, the white women who were arrested the night be fore on a charge of being drunk and dis orderly in a house on Farm street, were sentenced each to pay $5 or spend ten days in the lock-up. The eleven other cases that were heard were of minor Importance. ML'RDER 'PHIAL OX TO-DAY, Signora Mitchell to Answer for the Killing of James Harris. Signor* Mitchell will be tried in the Superior Court to-day for the murder of James Harris. The man was killed in a quarrel with ihe woman, beginning in a game of skin, which had been in progresa in the house I hat she conducted, on Cuyler street and Duffy lane. Solicitor General Osborne will prosecute the case for ,the state, while Messrs Shelby Myrlck and Richard M. Lester will represent the Interests of (he de fendant. There is considerable difference In the stories of the homicide that ha\ been told by the witnesses and the case Is likely to be bitterly contested. VISIT OF ATLANTA GROCERS. They Will Arrive This Morning nml Will Spend the Dny at Tyhee. The excursion of the Retail Grocers As sociation of Atlanta will reach the city this morning over tho Central. It is ex pected that a large number of persons from Atlanta ami the country contingent to the railroad will take advantage of the low rate to visit this city and Tyhee. The excursionists will leave for the return trip Friday night. A POPULAR MISTAKE. Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia nml Indignation. Tht national disease of Americans is in digestion or in its chronic form, dyspep sia, and for the very reason that it is so common many people neglect taking prop er treatment for what they consider tri fling stomach trouble, when as a matter of iact, indigestion lays the foundation for many incurable diseases. No person with a vigorous, healthy stomach will fall a victim to consumption. Many kidney dis eases and heart troubles date their begin ning from poor digestion; thin, nervous people are really so because their stom achs are out of gear; weary, languid, faded out women owe their condition to imperfect digestion. When nearly every person you meet is afflicted with weak digestion it is not surprising l that nearly every secret patent medicine on the market claims to be a cure for dyspepsia, as well as a score of oth r troubles, when in fact, as Dr. A\ erthier says, there is but one genuine dyspepsia cure which is perfectly safe and reliable, and moreover, this remedy is not a patent mt dicine. but it Ms a scien tific combination of pure pepsin (free from animal matter), vegetable essences, fiuit salts and bismuth. It is sold by druggists und r the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. No extravagant claims are made for them, but for indi gestion or any stomach trouble. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are far ahead of any remedy yet discovered. They act on the f od eaten, no dieting is necessary, simp ly at all the wholesome food you want and ihese tablets will digest it. A cure resulis, because all the stomach needs is a rest, which Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets give by doing the work of digestion. HIGH SCHOOLS GRADUATES. Continued from Tenth Page.

An interesting and artistic musical and dramatic recital was given at the Lawton Memorial last night by Mrs. E. E. Rollins and Miss Margaret May Nicholson, as sisted by Messrs. A. B. Green. J. Nor ton Oemler, C. D. McCardel and Walter Cler and Prof. Wiegand. The entertainment began with a very clever sketch, “My Uncle’s Will,” by 9. There Smith, in which Mrs. Rollins, Mr. Green and Mr. Oemler took part. The plot of the sketch is well conceived and the lines are witty. The players entered most heartily into its spirit and acquit ted themselves admirably. Mr. C. D. McCardel sang the "Song of the Forge’’ from Rol ln Hcod, and later on the programme, "I’m King O’er Land and Sea.” Hivachieved his usual success anrl was warmly applauded, but refused to respond io the encore. "Sacred Is the Weeping,” Canto di Leila, • Von Suppe, sung by Miss Nichol son with violin obligato,by Prof. Wiegand, was another number that scored a de cided hit. Miss Nicholson has an excel lent voice, of great range and power, and her numbers were sung with a taste and finish that drew forth the most generous applause. Her other songs were, "Adieu, Marie,” Adams; “Sweetheart, Sigh No More,” Lynes, and the "Lullaby” from Jocelyn, Godard. To the last named there was also a violin obligato by Prof. Wie gand. Mrs. Rollins recited “How Ruby Played.” by request, and also gave the court scene from "Henry VIIL” The two selections are the opposite poles of dra matic literature, but Mrs. Rollins display ed her versatility, and artistic perception and ability by making a hit in each. Prof. Wiegand played a violin solo, se lected and to an encore gave the Inter mezzo from "Cavalleria Rusticana.” Mr. Green recited admirably the well known but ever popular “Dream of Eu gene Aram.” The vocal numbers were accompanied on the piano by Mr. Cler. LEADIIIHS GOING TO ATLANTA. To Attend Hie Sontliern States Con ference Next Month. The southern conference of the Ep worth League will be held In Atlanta, July 25 to 29 inclusive. This conference is the result of a decision reached at the last International Conference held last year at Indianapolis that the Inter national Conference could be Improved both in the way of securing greater at tendance and also in the work accom plished were it not so large and unwieldy, and if it were not necessary for some of the attendants to come from such great distances. Hence it was deckled that the international feature be abandoned and that Canada, and tho northern and southern states should each hold separ ate confereneces. This will he the first conference held alms* this decision wus made. There Is no doubt that it will boa success both from points of numbers and work accomplished as already there has been developed a great Interest in it throughout Southern states, from California to Maryland, near ly all of which will be represented by some of their leaguers. While the programme of the conference has not yet been complet ed, already some of the best known speak ers of the country have promised to lie present and take a part in the exercises. The conference was discussed in all of the local branches of the Epworth league In Savannah last night. Many of the Leaguers have already expressed their In tention of being present, and as many more will probably decide later to go, there is little doubt that Savannah will be very well represented. An Evening ill Isle f Hope. The entertainment at Barbee & Bandy s at Isle of Hope lost night was an enjoy able one and was attended by a crowd of people. A trio of entertainers, Messrs, John Banks, Louis Markel and Dietz Clarke, furnished the programme. Mr. Hanks sang "She’s Only a Bird In a Gild ed Cage,” Mr. Markel sang a medley and Mr. Clarke contributed a number of coon songs. The 15. prize offered by the Met ropolitan Clothing Company In the guess ing contest was won by Mr. A. C. Com mon. on a guess of 193. The ladles prize Friday night will bo live pounds o l candy by Conlda. THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27, 1900. THE WEATHER.

Dan Williams entered pleas of guilty to two indictments, charging him with forgery, in the Superior Court yesterday, accompanying his acknowledgment of guilt with an appeal to the mercy of the court. Judge Falligant imposed a sentence of a fine of SIOO and costs or a term of six months on the chalngang In each case. Dan is the former messenger in the county Court House, who assisted Phoe nix Williams in forging the name of Jan itor Bartley Donovan to orders for their salaries, which they negotiated with money lenders in the city. Dan’s peculations were of small amounts and Judge Falli gant doubtless felt that his fall was due to lire influence of Phoenix, who is Ihe more skilful and accomplished rogue. He has proved it by evading the officers of the law- and remaining at liberty. The financial operations of Pho"nlx Williams were on a more extensive scale. Not only- had he beaten the money lend ers right and left, but he wound up his criminal career here by forging the name of Capt. John R. Dillon os on a note. This he negioliated and got the money, but the bank officials detected the forgery a* sufficient length of time before Williams' departure to make him return the cash. The Twentieth t'entnry Policy* The greatest accident policy written to day is that of the Aetna Life Insurance Company, and is rightly called the Twentieth Century Combination Accident Policy. It pays double benefits under a wider range of every-day assets than any other Accident Company. Double benefits paid for all accidents caused by railroads, street cars, bicycles, burning building, elevators and steamboats. Weekly Indem nity is payable every two months, during disability until payments equal the full principal sum Insured. In addition to this the Aetna pays In demnity for total or partial disability. Especial provision Is made for many things not usually covered by accident policies, such as sunstroke, freezing, as saults, asphyxiation, injuries without ex ternal marks, etc., etc. The Aetna puts this new policy forward as the most liberal ever offered the pub lic. The Aetna Is a Mg company with as sets of over $52,000,000, and pays all losses promptly and without contest. Mr. G. 8. Haines Is the general agent of the com pany and can be reached by telephone No. 709. The Cause of Many Sudden Deaths.

Bladder troubles most always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scald -1 ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won derful cures of the most distressing cases. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take%nd sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sized bottles.
