WATER FAMINE IN ATLANTA.

There War a Small Fire hut For
innately It Was Pnt Ont With Dirt
and Chemical Engine*.
Atlanta. July 2-i.-Atlanta has ara n
been in the throes cf a water famine. Be
cause of a broken valve near the pumping
station the water was cut off at 8 o’clock
last night and not a drop was pumped
into the city until 2 o’clock this afternoon.
It was 6 o'ckv'k this afternoon before th*
water rtachecl the floors of high build
irgs. Faucets wheezed and whisiled with
dry throats, mills shut down, elevators
•topped running, factories fal’ered in
their daily output, engines gasped and
died, bakeries went to borrowing, barbers
bolted the r doors, laurdr.cs lay idle, and
hotels were harrassrd by drought.
The government thermometer rfg stered
87 degrees in the shade. The Atlanta fire
department men stayed close to their
quarters, alert and almost trembl'ng with
f( ar that the gong would strike an alarm
cf fire. They felt the dai ger and they wer
prepared to fight it with axes and exper
ience
Hotels, restaurants, office buildings, fac
tories, everything up town is without
water and only with the greatest difficulty
arethe hotels and restaurants to get
enough water to cook with, baths and wa
ter for other uses being totally out of the
question. Elevators in the sky scrapers
have stopped, factories have shut down
and the streets have been crowded all day
with employes woh cannot return to work
until the water is turned on again.
Finn noin I Foss In Lni ftp.
The financial loss to the factories will
run way up into the thousands. Bottled
waters and other kinds on sale at drug
stores, soda founts and saloons would be
exhaus ed by another day of famine. Per
sons who own wells never realized their
superiority over the remainder of mankind
until to-day and a set price of five cents
u bucket prevaJls in certain parts of the
city. Many wells have been kept dry by
the constant run on them.
Great financial loss hap resulted to the
factories of the city, which are depend
ant upon the water supply, owing to an
enforced shut down for the day. For in
stance the Exposition Mill sent its em
ployes home early this morning and up
town in big factories like the Inman
Snrith Company’s place on Pryor street
thfcire haft been no work done. In these
two places alone there are possibly
employes and the consequent loss has been
extremely heavy. The same state of af
fairs is true erf other factories in. the city.
Altogether, it Is estimated 3.000 men are
out for to-day because of the lack of
water. Shipping of goods is at a ef.ind
etill in th# uptown places where elevators
are used, as it is practically impossible
to move heavy goods from floor to floor
without elevators. This was one of the
troubles in Inman, Smith & Co.’s.
The railroads of the city have not. by
any means, escaped the inconvenience
consequent upon the famine. In many of
the railroad yards, however, there are
private wells, gigantic affairs like the
one in the Georgia Railroad yard, where
engines take water, and thl6 has helped
out wonderfully. In other yards, how
ever, it has beer necessary to haul water
in for the use of the locomotives.
Danger of nn Ice Famine.
One of the dangers threatened by the
water works crisis is an ice famine. There
has been a scarcity of ice in the city to
day. and the small consumer? are the
onee who have suffered. Several ice man
ufacturing people eaid this ofiernoon they
had been compelled to turn down a num
ber of orders during the day. This morn
ing a number of the large ice consumers
■were notified that their orders would have
to b* cut. The scarcity of ice has had
its effect on the soda fountains. Proprie
tors of a number of fountains were told
early to-day that the lack of water would
make it impossible to have their order*
completely filled.
There was a small fire in the rear of the
Wall street office of the Southern Expre*
company this morning With a fair start
it would have meant great loss to Atlanta.
Having no water to fight ihe Are. Chief
Joiner’s laddies used dirt, and fhis new
weapon of defense, combined w!*th the
chemical engine’s efforts, put an end to
the Maze.
At a mass meeting to-night the citizens
elected H. H. Cabaniss chairman of a
committee <to be named by him to co-op
erate with the City Council to find the
causes of the waterworks’ trouble and the
remedy for it.

cal condition will permit.

JUDGE HART’S CHARGE.
Severe Arraignment of “Blind TA
ger" Keeper* anil Gnnililer*.
Dublin, Ga., July 24.—Yesterday Judge
John C. Hart delivered one of the most
sensational charges to the grand Jury ever
heard in* Laurens county. He said that
those who sold liquor Illicitly were not
men but creatures, and that the only other
meaner person was he who patronized a
blind tiger and then would go before the
grand Jury and lie about it. In the opinion
of Judge Hart Ihe midnight assassin and
the person guilty of arson were better men
than the blind tiger keeper. One would
take your life and the other destroy your
property, but the blind tiger would destroy
your soul. Gambling was then touched
upon severely. He said that buying cotton
or other futures was as much wrong as
playing cards for money, and that the
law should be made to apply to this form
of gambling as well as the others.
Judge Hart's charge was well received
by the people.

Sara) Station Pamphlet*.
Beaufort, 3. C., July 24.—The starul ;
taken by Col. AverHl. formerly receiver
of the Port Royal Railroad, and a resi
dent of Beaufort for several years, in ref
erence to the Port Royal naval station
matter, comes as a shock to many of his
old friends here. During his residence
lit Beaufort, the Colonel worked zealously
for the commercial progress of both Port
Royal and this town, and ot that time
he thought our hkrbor the finest on the
Southern coast. Now he appears to have
change-1 his opinion, and is working with
equal ardor to injure the place, where,
during his residence, he rnjoyed the es
teem of the best citlzns.
The Citizens' Commitlee are busi
ly engaged In mailing the at
tractive pamphlets. illustrating the j
Port Royal naval station, to the press in j
the leading cities of the country, and to j
influential persons in Washington and j
elsewhere.
The little volume is a credit to tho gen- |
tlemen of the Beaufort and Port Royal
Committees, who worked so earnestly to
collect the information it contains. Mr.
William H. Lockwood has been untiring
in his work as chairman of the commit
tee. Whatever may be the outcome of
the. matter, the peopie here feel that these
pamphlets will, at least, correct any erro
neous Impression that may prevail as to
the magnitude of the government works
on Paris Island, which the enemies of
Port Royal have sought to convey.

OPINION OF DH. J. Z. CRAVKY, OF
PENSACOI/N, FLA.
•'I am, as you already know, a firm
advocate of the virtues of mineral waters
generally, and regard it as a great mis
fortune that their value is not more fully
appreciated by the public at large.
"From personal experience 1 unhesi
tatingly endorse the water of Suwanee
Springs as among the most valuable of
its class of which I have any knowledge.
"Its reputation as a curative agent In
rheumatic affections is proverhlal, and
I consider it absolutely invaluable as a
remedy in disorder of the digestive sys
tem and as a restorative in general de
bility. from whatever cause It may arise.
"Aside from the medical properties of
the water, Suwanee Springs, with its
delightful location, and perfect sanitary
arrangements, is, in my opinion, one of
the most attractive, healthful and rest
ful spots I have ever seen.
"Its entire freedom from all material
that could possibly prove offensive to
any of the senses adds not a little to its
value as a resort for both invalids and
those in need of resi and recreation." • •
IT HAS NO EQUAL AS AN APPE
TIZER.
Mr. G. C. Crom, Route Agent Southern
Express Company, says: "My oldest boy,
Curtis, has been a sufferer from indiges
tion for the past five years, and I have
never found anything to give him relief
until 1 purchased a. bottle of Sloat’s Vege
table Bitters. It has certainly been a
wonderful medicine in his case. We keep
it in our house and would not be without
It for ten times its cost. I cannot speak
of It too highly, as it has completely
made a cure of my boy, who was an in
tense sufferer from indigestion.”

BIT^ONLY^THE^BEST~GINGER^tLE!
The best is the Wheeler Brand of Bel
fast Ginger Ale, made by Wheeler & Cos.,
of Belfast, Ireland, from the celebrated
Cromac Springs of (hat city. Ttiesa
springs are the property of Wheeler &
Cos., hence no other Ginger Ale manufac
turer in Ireland has those waters bul
themselves. The Wheeler Ginger Ale is
made from pure Jamaica Ginger Root and
not from Red Pepper, as others are; one
Is deleterious—the other is a tonic.
For Healthfulness and Purity the cele
brated Wheele.r brand of Belfast Ginger
Ale is the best.
