The event will be celebrated in thie city with a great bas ket dinner and many other features. It Is now certain the road will be finished by that time. Flint River's Rise. The Flint river at Albany 4s seven feet above the low water mark and is rising slowly. The excessive rains for the past two weeks have damaged the peach, mel on and cantaloupe crops considerably, but the damage to other crops in that section Is not considered greater than good sea sons for the rest of the summer would re pair. An Independent Candidate. Walton Tribune: It Is currently rumored In this county that Hon. J. Y. Carithers of Athens will be in the race for the Senate from this district as an Independent, It •natters not who Is nominated for that po sition by the Democrats. Mr. Carithers Is a prominent citizen, and formerly lived in Walton, where he has many warm friends and relatives. Reports Not F.neonraglng. Atlanta Journal: Reports received by Bhs agricultural department regarding the crop conditions are not at all encourag ing. Senator E. L. Wright of Albany was •t the oapitol this morning. He comes from the melon section of Georgia and reports the melons tc be greatly damaged by the rains. He says the fruit is falling off the vines, and those melons which are now ripe are hardly fit to eat. and the crop has been damaged about 25 per cent. Elbertas Begin to Move. A special to the Morning News from Cairo. Ga.. says: Mr. W. B. Rodden bery of this town ehipped two crates of the famous Elberta peaches Monday. The fruit was well matured and very fine. They were shipped to G. G. Jurtice, Phila delphia. So fa, as is known these are the first Elberlas of the season. Mr. Roddetvbery has one hundred acres In poaches. The trees are very full, and be will begin to ship in car lots the last of this week. One of the Worst. Atlanta Journal: Maj. J. W. Warren •aid this morning the wreck rear Mc- Donough yesterday was one of th© worst he had ever heard of. He says he re members one which happened' near Co lumbus in 1856 soon after the completion of the Muscogee Railroad. About thirty people were killed at the time. The wreck was very similar to the one of Saturday bight. The trestle had been washed away entirely and the whole train was plunged into the river. Only four people escaped. Monument nt Albany. Albany Herald: Judge Richard Hobbs has received from a well-known Kentucky monument firm a drawing of a proposed Confederate monument to be erected in Albany. Judge Hobbs wrote for the draw ing in pursuance of a request of the ladies of the Memorial Association. It represents •n eight and a half foot pedestal of Barre marble, six feet square at the base. The figure surmounting It is six feet in hlght. It is of fine Italian marble and represents a soldier standing and leaning on his ri fle. Bringing Poor Price. Amerlcus Herald: A prominent Ameri cas fruit shipper received a letter this morning from New York stating that the price of peaches had fallen so for the past week that freight could hardly be realized upon them, and he was advised by his broker not to ship any more at the pres ent. The reason given for the poor prices is the continuous rains, which has caused the <ruit to be sappy, and does not bear ship ping well. The fruit has to be sold at forced sale and barely brings enough to pay freight. It looks as though the crop will be a failure so far as shipping Is con cerned. The only way to save the crop, It seems, is to can It. Baxter’* Strap Refinery. Baxley Banner: The full amount of cap ital stock necessary to secure the erection of a syrup refinery here was secured In a few minutes' canvass Tuesday morning by Mr. C. W. Deen. The preliminary work had been well done and the business men had so familiarized themselves with the project that when the subscriptions were opened the full amount necessary was rais ed without trouble. The company will be Incorporated under a charter which will Rive It power to buy and sell and refine eyrup and sugar, although they do not in tend to try sugar making until the cane acreage te largely Increased. They will refine syrup under a patent process which prevents sugaring and fermenting, thus avoiding two of the banes of the syrup produoer There Is a good market for sy rup made under this process and the en terprise will doubtless prove a success. The enterprise will be of great benefit to the people of this section. Heretofore there has been no market for syrup and the cane grower has been compelled to almost Rive his product away or take trad* for it at any price. The people In all the adjoining counties can bring their sy rup here this fall and rest assured that they can sell It for the market pride In eaeh. It will be as staple as cotton and thus the farmers can have another crop which they can always count on to bring them 1c money Florida!

A sensation was caused at Lango tur pentine farm last Saturday when news of the killing of Will Hayward by Tom Brinson at Peacock’s turpentine fa’rm. four miles south of Fort McCoy, was re ceived. It seems that a number of negroes were gambling when the row started. Hayward died clutching a deck of cards in one hand. He was shot with his own pistol. The murderer escaped, and is at large. Hrk From the Tombs. Lake City, Florida Index: Alonzo P Baskin and F. H. Lytle have issued a call for a state convention of the Populist party to meet in Ocala on Tuesday, July 17, next, to nominate two presnienial electors, two congressmen and a fuil state ticket. These gentlemen, together with their party, politically died and received political burial several years ago and all their efforts to escape from the prison house of the tomb will prove fruitless, for this year at least. Tried to Commit Suicide. Jacksonville Metropolis: Samuel A. Smith, who is well known in this city, and who for many years served as a deputy United States marshal, attempted to kill himself at an early hour yesterday morning. Smith has been despondent for several days past, and was at a Ward street house when he made the attempt, using a pocket knife. He failed to make the cut deep enough, and Dr. Hoyle Had dock was summoned, and sewed up the wound, and the unfortunate man was re ported this morning as doing well. Smith is well known here, and his rash deed was a surprise to his friends. The would be suicide was discovered bleeding very profusely a few minutes after the at tempt was made, which was 3 o’clock yes terday morning. Tampa's Cigar Shipments. The cigar shipments from Tampa last week show a decided gain in business and the normal level seems to have been reached without an effort, after receding for one week simply. There was 481 cases shipped, which contained 2,405,000 cigars. For the corresponding week last year there were 419 cases, which is 62 cases less than last week’s shipment. Since Janu ary first there has been 11,201 cases of cigars shipped from Tampa. For the corresponding period of 1899 there were 8,481 cases shipped, making this year 2,- 720 cases in excess of last year’s busi ness. In point of numbers the shipments for this year have reached 57,153,000 cigars, and all of them of the finest make. The shipments last week were made into twenty-nine different states, scattering the Tampa name far and wide over the Union. Killing Near Pn nnsofTkrc. Jim Barco, a negro, became rowdyish at Panasoffkee Saturday night, and was arrested and searched for concealed weap ons. A pair of brass knucks were found on him. Justice of the Peace Jones or dered him to be taken to Sumterville Jail to await trial. Two white men, T. H. Mc- Donald and R. H. Smith, started with him to Sumterville. When nearly half way here they were met by three men* w ho de manded the negro. They got him, and Mc- Donald and Smith started to drive back, but had not gone far before they heard pistol shots. On Sunday morning Rube Jones was going to Panasoffkee. and found th negro dead by the roadside. He re ported to his father. Justice of the Peice at Panasoffkee, and an inquest was imme diately held. While holding the inquest, the news came of the attempted killing of one Reed, a white man, at Panasoffkee. Two men were arrested charged with the crime. Reed was badly wounded and at this writing is said to be duying. J., T. nuil K. W. Case Wound I’p. Jacksonville Timcs-Union and Citizen: A final conclusion has been reached in the litigation over the affairs of the Jackson ville, Tampa and Key West Railway Com pany, and the case, which has occupied a considerable portion of the time of the United States Court in this city for the last six or seven years, is ended. This was brought about by the sale cf the San ford and Lake Eustis division, which was sold on the rule day of the present month, under order of the court, by Spe cial Master Charles S. Adams. The pur chaser was the Plant Investment Com pany, which offered 125,000 for the prop erty, and agreed to assume the payment of certain state and county taxes pas due. This purchase money has been paid into the registry of court. From this there i a to be deducted $1,195.53 for ex penses and costs, leaving a balance of $23.- 801.47 to be divided pro rata among the holders of the first mortgage bonds on the main or consolidated lines. Each of these bonds Is of the denomination of SI,OOO, or $15.30 for each bond. The first dividend was $191.57, realized from the sale of the main line, and was payable in May, 1899. The second was $34.13. from the sale of the Indian River division. The total divi dends. therefore, to date, and including all that will be paid, are $24X10, or a small fraction more than 34 per cent. CANDLBR S CROPS DAMAGED. Covering Orange Grot e*—Lake Weir Fostotllce to Be Opened. Candler, Fla., June 26.-Long continued wet weather is doing great damage in this portion of Florida, the rains are so frequent and heavy that farmers can scarcely get a day dry enough to plow. Cotton is going too much to weed and corn is not doing well. It is feared peaches will be seriously damaged if we do no soon get sunshine. Over six inches of water has fallen within the l-ast twen ty-four hours. J. V. McKinney Is preparing to start up his saw mill to cut lumber to cover in more of his orange grove. He covered in two acres last year and will now cover two acres more. It costs about SI,OOO an acre to do this work, but it Is claimed that It will pay. Capt. John L. Carney of Lake Weir will also cover In his beautiful grapefruit grove, having purchased the old Chautauqua buildings for that purpose. The orange gioves are looking tine here and many people are hopetul that this extremely wet year will be the forerunner of milder winters, as the lakes are rising very rapidly. It is said there Is a good prospect for the postoftice at Lake Weir being re established with Mrs. H. H. Tohey as postmistress, the postoftice at Lake Weir was established twenty-five years ago. Judge C. F. Beneon, now of Jacksonville, was the postmaster for tlfteen years. Rev. William Morris, pastor of the Presbyterian Church here, has removed to South Lake Weir and will serve the church there as well as the one here. Mrs. Mary Layeock. one of the first settlers of this place, has removed to Lake City, Fla., to reside, where her son Is employed as electrician by the Elec trlc Light Company.

MARINE INTELLIGENCE. MATTERS OF INTEREST FROM THE HI V Ell FRONT. The Finns of the Promoters of the Steamboat Line to Compete With the CHlimod Line lo Augnstn Not Yet Announced—Steamer Clifton Arrive* From Carolina Farm With Potatoes—ltalian Steamship Citta dl Messina Clears With Scrap Iron for (ienon. Nothing further has developed in the plans of the promoters of the line of steamers to run in competition wi h the Gibson Line between Savannah and Au gusta. The intentions of the newcom rs are not exactly known, and for this rea son the interests with which they will compete are left in the dark, at ieast for the present. Speaking of the new line yesterday, Mr. W. T. Gibson said he did not see wh-are the business for additional boats was com ing from. “We have tried boats on some of the routes it is proposed to run. and found it did not pay. Expenses wire so much heavier than our receipts that we abandoend our intention of continuing. And the same may be said of the Savan nah and Augusta line. One steamer is now laying off because there is no: enough business, at present to justify u- in running her. It does not stand to reaso that we would tie a boat to the do ks if there were anything to be made in keep ing her on the line.” Judging from the precaution taken some time ago by Mr. Gibson against competi tion with his Augusta business it would seen he has a hold on at least a part of the business there. He organized a stock com pany, and interested all the leading ship pers by his line, including mill men and merchants, so that they are apt to patron ize their own line. The relations thus es tablished are doubtless such as will be difficult for a competitor to overcome. Large Receipts of rotators. The steamer Clifton arrived yesterday from the Hall Island farm near Fort Royal with 500 barrels of Irish potatoes. The Alpha brought over 500 a few days ago. as stated in the Morning News at the time. Mr. L. Donner. owner cf this farm, will ship nearly 3.500 barrels North this season by the water routes. I*, is stated that about 25.000 barrels of potato s are shipped yearly from the vicinity of Fort Royal. The Italian steamship Citto <ll Messini cleared yesterday with a solid cargo of scrap iron for Genoa. The cargo was val uel at $73,100. This Is the first solid cargo of iron to leave Savannah for some time. The agency in Savannah of the Isaac Jo seph Company of Cincinnati, it is under stood. will receive large quantities of iron from time lo time, and as It accumulates will export it from Savannah. The revenue cutter Algonquin may be ordered to Baltimore from the Wilming ton. N. C.. station to receive anew hand steering gear, for which the construct oi department is awaiting proposers. It has been decided by a board of survey that the revenue cutter Bou'.well, Capt. Ho*'- tson. is to have repairs. Proposals will be received for the work. Action In sail tonnage continues limited in character, though business is checked somewhat by the scarcity of desirable vessels and the full rates generally re quired. Lumber shippers to South Ameri ca are also in the market, and aliho gh bidding full previous rate* '.heir orde:s are executed with difficulty. Coastwise lumber rates are firm and those for coal steady. The Swedish bark Carl von Doiilen, Capt.

Stamp* by Wind Power. From the Farmer’s Advocate. Utilizing the wind as a stump puller is an Oregon invention. It was the id*a of the farmer at the state penitentiary, whose task was to clear six acres, and with the aid of the wind he cleared the whole tract in six weeks, although the timber was a dense growth, the first measuring from or.e to four feet in diameter. The winds in the quarter blew strong from the south at this season. The farmer put his men to work on the north side* of the fir grove. They cut a log and dragged it close to the north side of the bases of the fir trees, and then cut the surface roots of the trees that were to be felled. The prepara tions were made during the first day. and then the men went home and slept while the wind did the rest. During the night a strong south wind blew thr tre*s down, and they, in falling across the logs, pulled up the taproot*. The n*xt day the men sawed up the fallen trees, burned the brush, and ’aid their logs for another lot of trees. They proceeded In this way until the whole* grove had disappeared. 64 Pages of Solid Facts for Men, Free. Anew edition ton Hathaway's —.

COTTON AGAIN MOVES UPWARD THE CONDITIONS STILL FAVOR THE BILL FACTION. It Is Admitted the Dsmsge to Crop* Ha* Been Considerable, and the Trade Now Await* Definite Infor mation—Spirits Turpentine Firm at 42>i Cents—All Grades of Rosin Advance—Sugar I’p lO Points—Lo cal and Telegraphic Markets. Morning News Office, June 26.—The cot ton market continues to be the center of attraction in local commercial circles. The New York market for cotton futures clos ed very steady at an advance of 12 to 20 points, .with the situation somewhat con fusing toward the close, due to the vari ance of reports from the cotton country as to the extent of the damage caused by the recent rainy weather. Tnat the dam age has been considerable in some quarters is not doubted, and many are waiting for definite information as to the drawback to the crop, expecting this to lead to fur ther fluctuations in prices. To-day's rise is due mainly to the big demand for cotton by bears. After they were satisfied little further interest was shown during the balance of the session. The naval stores market is very firm apparently. The turpentine market opened firm at 42*-i cents, and remained firm dur ing the day under the strain of hamm- r ing by buyers, who were unable to get anything under quotations. It is the be lief of factors that prices will stiffen con siderably later as a result of the present rough weather, which has prevailed quite generally throughout the turpentine le t. The rosin market advanced five cents at the opening on all grades, at which the tone was firm, and the demand fair. The impression as to short receipts also pre vails among the factors as to the rosin market, and for this reason they are in different about selling. It remains to be seen whether the receipts will be materi ally decreased as a result of the rains. This has not been ihe case up to the pres ent time. Another advance of 10 points was re ported ip refined sugars to-day. The w holesale markets were steady and gener ally unchanged, except as to sugars. The following resume of Che different markets will show the tone and quotations at the closing to-day. COTTON. The local cotton market was unchanged to-day, except as to the tone, which was quiet and steady. There were reported sales of 242 bales. The day's receipts were 222 bales, against 233 last year. There are no indications at present of any material improvement in the demand, though this is looked for at any time. Attention con tinues to be centered in the futures mar ket, which fluctuated considerably to-day. the closing being very steady at an ad vance of 12 and 20 points.

They all said that they could cure me. but found it to be of a stubborn nature and failed. I saw GRAYBEARD advertised and I bought 4 bottles of it— -2 boxes of the pills— -1 box of the ointment. , It cured me well. And I have one bottle left. - - - - I say that I am well—not nearly well—but entirely well. It haa been over twelve months and no symptoms have returned. - I hope the suffering will do as I have; use it, have faith In it and be curaA Jan. 1. MRS. JANE GEORGE, Rockvale. Teno.
