Colnmho* Cotton Mills Not Affected fcy the Chinese Trouble—-Work of n Norwegian \enr Fitzgernld—Con federate Monument in Albany. Orange tirouers to Meet at Clenr ivnter—Death of n Nonogennriaii. Florida Editor’© Dentil. Albany Herald: The movement so long on foot to erect a Confederate monument in Albany has now reached the stage of definite, concentrated fiction, and there is every reason to hope and believe that ihe monument will he erected during the pres- ; ent year. The work of selecting a design and having the rnonum* nt erected has been entrusted to an executive committee. Rif ten ly n Mnl Dog. LaGrange Graphic l : Mr. Frank T. Hud eon, of Lor.g Cane, was bitten by a mad dog last Wednesday, the animal being a Scotch collie belonging to Mr. Hudson. Dr. H. R. Slack was at once called in and succeeded in getting Mr. Hudson off to the Pasteur Institute at Baltimore, where he is now receiving treatment. Mr. Hudson has many friends in LaGrange who sym pathize with him in his misfortune and who wish him speedy recovery. Columhiiß Mill* Not \ffecteil. Columbus Enquirer Sun: The Columbus cotton mills are not directly affected by the disturbances in China, but indirectly they are interested in conditions In the an cient empire. The cotton mills already in operation do not make brown goods, the kind exported to China, their products be ing confined to colored goods. The new mills of the Columbus Manufacturing Com pany will make brown goods, however, and thus that ont<rprise would be affected. The brown goods trade with China now amounts to ten or twelve millions annually and while it is yet in its infancy, quite a snug little sum is already derived from it. In view’ of the disturbed conditions in Chi na some of the brown goods mills are thinking of changing to colored goods, and in case this is done it will affect the Co lumbus mills, as it wil give them more competition. Colored Voter* of Dodge. Eastman Tlmes-Journal: The indica tions now are that the colored voters of Dodge county will have very little to do with the local option election to be held on the first of August. It seems they are offended with the white people on account of the primary elections for state and county officers, and for that reason, do not intend to vote in the local option elec tion. At first, their idea seemed to spite the white prohibitionists by voting for the sale of whiskey, but finding that the white prohibitionists are no more responsible for getting up the primary election than the white anti-prohibitionists, it §eems that the colored voters hove concluded to “hands off ’’ and give the local option election the “cold shoulder’ by not voting at all. either for or against the sale, and to thus spite the white voters on both aides in that election. Whnt o V'onregian fnn Do. Fitzgerald Citizen-Leader: “Did you ever receive a present from a Norwegian before? inquired X. Bredeson last Sat urday. as he smilingly deposited a large basket of big. luscious Elhertn peaches grown on his tract out on Prospect Drive, just west of the H. C. Smith place. Mr. Bredeson’s trees are just coming into bear ing and as a consequence he has no great quantity, though the quality is excellent and the promise of future yields flatter ing. Mr Bredeson has experimented ex tensively the past two seasons in growing onions and had splendid success. He now produces as fine onion sets as can be had and will be able to supply a large port of the demands for them in this community the coming season. Mr. Bredeson is highly pleaseed with his colony home and ex pressed his surprise that more of his na tionality did not exchange the bleak cli mate of the Dakotas and other North western states for the superior advanta ges of this favored section. FLORIDA.” Through the action of the Citizens’ Committee of Pensacola another canvass v*as made after the tuklng of the census. This resulted in the addition of 500 citi zens to the official list, who had not been counted. Where Criminal* ll!de. Gainesville Sun: The turpentine camps of Florida are the hiding places of many criminals from other states. Many of the crimes committed in Alachua and other counties can be traced to those who have bad to flee from other states. They should be made to know that their presence here will* not bo tolerated. Their prompt ar rest when discovered would soon rid the ctate of their presence. Dentil of n Xonogennrinn. Mrs. Mary Burnett, the oldest person in Hillsboro county, is dead. The death oc curred last month, but as she lived in a remote section of the county the news has Just reached Tampa. She was 04 years old. At the time of her death she was enjoying the full use of her faculties, her mind being clear and bright, her eyes good and her hearing as perfect as it had ever been. She was- regarded as the oldest per son in the county, and she was known by people all over South Florida. DifttinßiilNlicri Greek Visitor. Kev. Agaiheadorus A. Papngeorgopolos, archimandrite of the Greek Protestant Church, is in Tampa looking after the Greek colony there who are believers in *is faith, and in addition to this he presid ed over the baptism of the infant daugh ter of L. Arahnasow* Sunday, which was quite an event in the history of the colo ny. The distinguished personage went all the way from New York to perform this ceremony, and his stay In Tampa is being made the occasion of a show of much con sideration for him. Seminole Brave*. Miami Doctor and Cyprus T*ger, two Seminole braves, with their families, ar rived in Miami Friday from their camps in the Everglades. The families consist ed of several daughters and Mrs. Doctor. The ladles were dressed In gorgeous red cUco, and each wore an Immense coil of many colored beads around the neck. Mrs. Doctor, carried a papoose, dressed in fan tastic colors. These Indians- are on a trad ing expedition, carrying in a large quan tity of alligator hides. Death of an Editor. Carsner Booker, aged 53 years and act ing editor of the Dunnellon Citizen, died at his brother’s home, several miles south of Ocala, of a congestive chill. He came up from Dunnellon Tuesday, suffering frorrv malaria, but he was not deemed se | riously ill. Deceased went to Ocala eome seven years ago from Nebraska, where, for a number of years, he had successful ly conducted a paper of his own. For sev eral yearn he was employed on the New Capitol, under Col. T. W. Harris, then with the News, and after it ceased to ex ist. with the Star, until C. Y. Miller of the Dunnellon Citizen secured his services. He was liked by all who knew him. He had no family. Leesburg;’© Enterprise*. Leesburg Commercial: The factories of the Leesburg Cooperage Company in this place are turning out a very large num ber of fine barrels each week. A large force of coopers Is employed. Some of these have th#ir families with them. All of them are money-makers, and add no small amount to he current revenue of the tow’n each month. Other factories of the town are doing well, and no complaint for lack of business is heard from any of them. The wagon factory and machine shop of McLean Bros, is increasing Its business. It alo employs n good force of hands. The moss factory is doing well under the direction of Mr. A. S. Hard man, and the icc factory runs night and day. To FiKlit Orange Pest*. An orange growers’ convention has been called to meet at Clearwater on Thurs day. Ir is for the purpose of forming an association in the county of Hillsboro and making determined and organized fight on the posts which are now appearing in certain sections. These insects and ail ments are doing some damage, and it is feared that if something is not <lone the results will be disastrous. It has been deemed wise to call this convention so that all growers can get together and state their experience. Some of the leading residents of the w’est coast have joined in signing the call, and there is every in dication that there will be n large num ber present. The scales have appeared on the west coast more than in any other section of the county, hut it is feared that they will be in every grove nfter a time, unless some organized method Is taken up whereby they may be stamped out effectually. INBORN CRUELTY OF CHINESE. Frightful Tortured Legally Inflicted on Nntive Criminal*. Writing about three weeks ago in the Paris Journal Edouard Santeuil predict ed the aw'ful fate of the Europeans at l’ekln. and supported his prediction by the natural cruelty of the Chinese. He w’roie: China, so proud of her civilization and her arts, w'hich honors family \irtues and gives the prcc dtnee to letteis and sci nee possesses by a strange contrast a record of ihe most ferocious cruelty in the ac complishment of wngeance. It Is there fore not without fear that one even thinks of the reprisals which China would be able to infib t at this very moment on the foreigners established in her terri tory. Above everything e’ie, the Chinese have the passion for isolation, and it is carried evrn to fanaticism. The great wall, which we look on as an an historical expression, exists still in the eyes ({ tie Ceesi als. They have never seen it passed ever without having a rage at heart. They have defended it often with their own bodies, and if they ever hoped for the moment when they vvoul 1 b° sufficiently well armed to throw all 'he foreigners in the sea, one can be sure that this operation, which has been pre dicted with authority by Admiral Cour bet. will be can led out by the with all the refinements of cruelty in spired by a blind sentiment of revenge. This explains, as it already appeared in the terrible hours of the Taip ng rebel lion. the incendiary tires, the massacres and murders with which have hem begun the irsurroction of the Boxers. whe;her authorized by ih regular army and the imp'nial government or not, and which is nothing e’se than a defiance of the yellow’ race to the other races, whose contact it can no longer tolerate. China for the Chi nese! Thai cry has often beei\ heard in this century, and a’ways it was accom panied by the most frightful horrors. When the Chinaman let him beman larin cr mendicant, litterateur or workingmaa. passes out of his tdustrious or passive t anquili y into ac ion, he has no longe*- any control of himself—he sees red. How many traits of his barbarous fury have be* n shown in the last twenty years, in the French conquests in Southern Chi na! Woe to our civilian countrymen who fe 1 into the hands of the Yellow or Black Pavilions! Woe to the prisoners or to the wounded they could surprise! Often has been related that terrifying forenoon, at the rarer Bridge in Tonquin, when Com mandant Rivere met death, and tortures were infl eted on officers and soldiers who could not escape in t>me. Read over again, if you have sufficient courage for it. the martyrology of the Christian missions, Prote=tant as well as Catho’ie. There is at Paris, in the build ing of the foreign missions, a hall where are assembled the bloody proofs—clothing pierced by knife blades, whole sets of teeh torn out, instruments of torture which would have made the Inquisition i’self shiver. How could the Chinese deprive them selves of their pleasure in cruelties when they * nj v Inflicting it on their own coun trymen? Their judg< s have sanctioned the r ght to submii accuse! persons to such tortures as whipping, puling cut nails, crushing ai kies or fingers and hanging by the arms, among the one hundred and twenty-sex on forms of cruel treatment which th<y have invented, and wh ch they apply with horrifying delight, according to m* re caprice. Three forms of death—beheading, strangling and garroting-do not suffice to satisfy them; there is also the “slow This execution lasts for several days, beginning with the flaying of the skin of the forehead, which the execution er 1 wers upon the eyes of the crimin and In order to avoid his looks. The inv. assibil ity of the barbarians when abandoning themselves to these abominable moods Is Incredible. It Is equal to an absolute in sensibility. In cases of war or of foreign invasions the mandarins have the right to inflict these tortures whenever and iti the measure they choose. But the furor of the crowds proceeds often in advance of the mandarin’s order. The extreme pleasure which the yellow race feel* in the perpetration of thes? crimes against hu manity is shown in the capital itself on Dec. 11 in ever year. It Is the day wh'ch Is fixed for the annual executions, which take p'ace not In the barbuian quarte- of Pekin but in the best quarter of the Chl 4ic e capital A shed is In It on the squa * of the vegetable market and the <on d mmd persons are brought in th- re dir ing the preparations for their punishment Around the square all shops are c’osed, but the roofs are covered with persons anxious to enjoy the horrible s.Kctaele of the different executions. —The Lord Mayor of London wears a badge of office which contains diamonds valued at £120.000.

Other specialists have practiced here, some for a few months and some even for a year or two. but Dr. Hatnaway ie the only one of all the number who has remained, and hia p-actice has been . continuous for over 20 years, r The reasons must be plain to all: J He has made no promises which he could not fulfill; j He has fulfilled every promise he has made; He has cured more cases than all other specialists in r Newton Halhawav M.D hls combined i He has cured more cases of I-oss of Manly Vigor; He has cured more cases of Varicocele; He has cured more cases of Strlctu e; He has cured more cases of Specific Blood Poisoning, in all different stages; He has cured more cases of all manner of Chronic Diseases. He has cured more cases of all manner of Urinary and Sexual complaints; And he has cured these cases to stay cured These are the reasons why Dr. Hathaway has continued with a corstnn-ly graving practice while others have been forced to leave the field. He depends upon his cured patients to tell others who are like fflicted of what he has done and what he can do. Dr. Hathaway wonts all sufferers from Chronic Diseases to call at his office or write him. Unless they are convinced after an Interview, that he can cure them, they are under no obligations to take treatment. Consultation at hls office or by mail Is free.

The law is probably the most profitable of the so-called professions. There are more and larger prizes to he gained by an acute and eloquent disciple of the legal art than are open to the medical man or the ministers. In this country and Great Britain the incomes of the foremost advo cates and of attorneys In lucrative prac tice for the most part overshadow the yearly earnings of the best-known phy sicians and surgeons, and to a still greater extent those of our spiritual advisers. Oc casionally one hears of very large for tunes being left by prominent doctors—Sir William Gull. Pir Andrew Clarke. Dr. Pep per and Sir William Jenner are cases in point, but these are exceptions, and sums accumulated by medical men cannot be compared either in number or magnitude to the colossal amounts amassed by mem bers of the legal fraterniiy. When, how ever. the average incomes of these three classes of the community are considered their relative position in Great Britain ind the United States will be found to differ. Viewed thus, in the United Kingdom the clergyman is at the top of the list, the lawyer second and tho doctor last, while here the lawyer or doctor gets a larger *hare of the “loaves and fiEhe £ M and the | DOCTOR fpp I BILLS known V nerve tonic and blood purifier. 1% u] create-* solid CLeah. muacie and hu ■ strength, clear* the brain, makes SEB P the blood pure and rich, and cause* ■a a general feeling of health, power dfl KbiiT manly vigor.

The average Income of a physician in large cities on this continent may be plac ed at $2,000, in the smaller towns nt 81,500 and in the rural districts at $1,200. Two or three New York physicians are said to make.over slou,ooo a year, five or six about 850.000. byt the average income, although higher than in Chicago or in other Amer ican large cities, does not greatly exceed $2,00) yearly. The minister averages in the city perhaps $1,200 and in the country certainly not more than $8(0 yearly. As regards living expenses, both the lawyer and minister have an advantage over their professional brother. In New York, for example, office accommodations suitable to a physician is verv dear in a good neighborhood, costing not less than $7O or $6O a month, which, with board and lodging and other necesasry disbutse ments, will represent a sum of si2o monthly, a sufficiently weighty burden for a struggling youthful practitioner to bear. The young minister has no rent-to pay, whi'e the legal neophyte can regulate ins outlay in this respect aco.ding to the length of his purse. Nevertheless, the lot of the medical be ginner, compared with that of a pastor ■> n like situation, has its compensations' Ho is at least more or less independent. The minister; on the contrary, is, as a rule, oer mitted to exercise his own will to a lim ited degree, and often is doomed to go through a lifetime of toil, subservient to the caprices of censorious elders and dea cons. An excellent description of the trials of an American country minister, and the various unpleasantnesses with which he has to contend at tile hands of his congregation, is given in “The Damna tion of Theron Ware,” the best novel written by the late Harold Frederic. When al! is said that ran be said, the first few years of medical practice are years of arduous effort, full of disillusion ment and disappointment. The lute sir Andrew Clarke told Dr. Osier: "From the vantage ground of more than forty years of hard work I can say that 1 have striven ten years for bread, ten years for bread and butter and twenty years for cake an 1 ale." The truth undoubtedly is, and es pecially n the large centers of population in America, that the opportunities for a p.ij sician to obtain adequate compensa tion for his services are yearly becoming less. This is not due to any deterioration in the quality of the present-day practitioner or an evidence i t falling olf In modi, u or surgical skill. rite fact is irrefutable that the medical profession in this and in all civilized countries stands on a t'pher plane. In the matter of training and knowl edge than ever before. The reason for the decrease in tnedlral incomes is indubitably almost Wholly owlrg to the more eager competition tir'oi g rlguljr practittoif rs, to hospital and dispensary abuse, and to the lamentable increase is quackery. The supply of modi -a! men is greater than the demand; the market is flooded, and the most potent remedy we can suggest for this evil is that, as has been many times advised in the Medical Record, a uniform high standard of medical education should be established in every state. Sngnr in the Human System, From the Cathotic World. Sugar is a substance that dissolves easi ly and in considerable quantity In water. 3\ hen in solution it easily passes through an animal membrance by osmosis, and so the question of its absorption seemed sim ple enough. The disease diabetes showed, however, that sugar might exist very plentifully in the blood, and yet the nutri tion of an individual suffer very much for the lark of it. Something else beside Its mere presence in the system was ne cessary to secure its consumption by the tissues. Bernard thought that the liver was active in the consumption of sugar, and that disease of this organ caused dia betes. He therefore secured some of the htood going to the liver of a living ani mal and some of the blood that was Just leaving It To his surprise, the blood leav ing the liver contained more sugar than ihat entering it. After assuring himself that his observations were correct, be tried his experiments in different ways. He found that even In the blood leaving the liver of an animal that hail been fed only on substances containing no sugar, sugar could be demonstrated. Even In ti farting animal the liver Itself and the blood leaving it showed the presence of a form of sugar. The only possible con clusion from this was that the liver was capable of manufacturing this form of sugar out of non-sugar-contalnlng mater ial. or even from the blood of a fasting animnl. This was the first time in physiology that the Idea of an internal secretion was advanced. Glands within the body that gave off a secretion always possessed n duet by which ’his secretion was conduct ed to where it wns to produce its effect. The idea that glands exls4 which poured their secretion directly into the blood stream had not occurred. NAVAL STORES DECLINING. SPIRITS TURPENTINE CLMEff DULL AT 4.'; CENTS. The Resin Market Also 3 Cents Off on Grades G and Below—Tone Steady at the Close—Cotton qnift and Un changed—Considerable Shipments Bring Made to New Orleans—Local and Telegraphic Markets. Morning News Office, July 23. The naval stores market is at present the center of local interest, due to the fact that prices are yielding at a rapid rate, with the prospect of still further de clines. unless the downward tendency is shortly checked. Spirits turpentine open ed steady to-day at 43c, and closed dull and unchanged. It was understood that after the closing transactions were made on a basis of 42V>e. The rosin market went off 5c on G and below, closing steady at the decline. There was no change in the cotton mar ket. The fact that spot prices in New Orleans are higher than in Savannah at present, and also higher there than at New York, is attracting some cotton to that market, which is said to be used in covering contracts. The official busi ness reported was light. It is not under stood that exporters are yet in position to meet the prices asked by holders of interior cotton, and for that reason f. o. b. business is also light. The wholesale markets were steady, with no changes of consequence reported. The following re sume of the different markets will show the tone and quotations at the cloee to day: COTTON. The cotton market closed quiet and un changed to-day. The receipts were fair. There was not much local business doing, the official report at the Cotton Exchange showing transactions of 11 bales. There were shipments to New Orleans of 600 bales, nnd it is understood further ship ments -will be reported at the exchange of cotton shipped to-day. which will run the total for New Orleans to over 1.000 bales. The price of basis middling at Savannah is rents, and at New Orleans 10 3-16 cents, which accounts to some extent for the shipments to that market. Cotton has been shipped to New Orleans in pre ference to New York for a short time past.

New York, July 23.—The cotton market opened with prices 2 to 18 points higher, this being an indifferent response to strong early cables frotp Liverpool. The July and August contracts alone served an advance of more than 6 points. Soon aft er the opening well nigh perfect crop ac counts from every part of the South made their presence felt, as did excellent weath er accounts. Predictions for the best week ly crop report from Washington received this year, to-tnorrow, added to the timid ity of holders, who finally turned about and unloaded a considerable portion of their siaple. Light local and Southern hear speculation increased the heaviness of the market near midday. Not only did the new crop deliveries make a full reac tion, but sank several points below Sat urday's closing before the selling move ment subsided. Nearly every broker In tile pit had selling orders, though these for the most part were scaled upward on the theory that the firmness in Liverpool would cause our market to advance fully 12 to 20 points. The bud spurt in the Eng lish market was charged up to New Or leans buying orders which, in turn, stam peded foreign shorts and stimulated bull speculation. Late oiteratlons on 'Change were of a local, evening-up character and small tit that. Prices followed a narrow rut throughout. The close was quiet with prices 10 net higher to 3 lower.

July 23.—Murphy & Cos. eay: Cotton since noon has ruled quiee and featureless, with moderate fluctuations. Light rains were reported in. Texas yes terday and to-day, which are beneficial. There is an absence of speculation here, and with continued favorable outlook for the crop, prices for new crops are ex pected to ease off eventually. Elison & Co.’s (of Liverpool) monthly circular, dat ed 11th instant, says: “The high prices are attracting supplies from the'eonti nent and from Japan.” New York, July 23.—Hubbard Bros. & Cos. say: An excited market in Liverpool followed our advance of Saturday. That market closed before ours opened, and then It was found there were no buying orders of any moment from either Eu rope or the South. Crop accounts re ceived in the mail or by telegraph showed a remarkable Improvement in the crop conditions during the past three weeks and were enough to dampen any disposi tion lo buy even with unexpectedly good advices from Europe. The short time movement in Lancashire is increasing and the advices from Manchester report that it is likely to be continued in both mar kets. The situation is such a strange one to all connected with the trade that the sudden illustrations show how unde cided as to fhe future the entire trade may find themselves. A good govern ment report is expected to-morrow. DRY GOODS. New York. Jifty 23.—The chief feature of the market to-day has been the re vision of prices in bleached cottons, lead ing lines being reduced per yard. In brown goods the market continues dull and unchanged.

(From a Good Little Woman in North Carolina. | How fcaj'M Gored lior whsn everything else failed, k gratetu! friend always. Below we publish a letter from a great s/uf j ferer from nervousness, l and a general broken j down condition of the system. The cure is not ian unusual one for | Graybeard. Many such [letters aae received ev ■ ery week. Here is the letter: Allison, N./CX, July 2. WO. | Respcss Drug Company, Savannah, Ga.: | Dear Sirs: I writ© to tell you how grateful I I am that Graybeard wag. ioventbd. : Nearly all my life I have been a j great sufflerer from nerrooaness. I j could not sleep. I at© very little. I i lost flesh all the time. My complex ton got sallow. Nothing pleaded I me. Ouc family doctor dad all he I could for me. He worked patient- I ly, but every body noticed that I | kept going down bill. People j thought I had consumption. One day I happened to pick up a little ' booklet with the picture of a candle !on it. It attracted my a/ttention. I read it. It was of deep interest |to me. The next day I bought a bottle of Graybeard. I had not j taken the full bottle before I felt ! better. I have taken six bottles, i and have just bought three more. I have gained flesh. I haven’t felt j better since I was a child. EJvery j thing I eat I digest. And I have a splendid appetite. I can laugh at amusing things. I imagine I fieri like other people. Everybody Is so glad to see me eo vigorous looking and so healthy. I would not take SI,OOO for the benefit I have received from Graybeard. It is a wonderful remedy, and I fully believe it saved my life. I can’t thank you enough. Yours truly, MIS© NANNIE JONES. We claim exactly all this for Graybeard. It’s no new thing to us. It has cured many just such .ailments. It is purely a vegetable compound, and for building up a broken down, nervous, system it is truly won derful. For eradicat ing old and deep seabed diseases, as catarrh, eczema, dyspepsia, can cer, rheumatism, it has no equal on earth. It is free of mercury or pot ash, and begins to build up the sick man from the first. CET ST AT DRUG S fi ORES OR WRITE TO Proprietors, Savannah, Ga.
