Gamer and T. V. Porter, and probably
Senator Taliaferro to Washington, to en
deavor to secure n recount of that city s

whereas a count made at ih© instance of
the city authorities gives it 35.G00. Jack

company is the largest one yet established.
1 1 is five acres In size, all the plants being
of the Smooth Cayenne variety. This is
probably the only pinery in Florida on

Prohibition Election finntnfnrd.
Bartow Courier-Informant; Information
has been filed and warrants issued within
the past week against eight or ten per
sons for selling intoxicating liquors. It
may seem that of late ’ there has been
some laxity in the watchfulness generally
exercised towards this evil. * If such
were the case, it grew out of the uncer
tainty whether Judge Wall would sustain
or reverse the findings of the court in the
Randall case. Since it is known that the
Judge finds that the election was legal,
and sustains the findings of the County
Court in the aforesaid case, the officers
are taking steps to suppress liquor sell
ing.

lor an election to be held on Sept. 18 to de
cide on an issue of $300,000 in bonds for this
work was introduced and passed unani
mously. The bonds will be of thirty years'
duration, and will bear interest at the rate
of 4 per cent. The financiers of the board
claim that there will be no trouble in get

be secured for this amount, and there will
be no time lost in getting the work under

Hon. William H. Milton died sudden
ly' at Marianna, Fla., on Monday night.

he resigned, desiring more arrive partici
pation in the stirring operations of war.
He raised e company of cavalry, and was
made captain in 1862. He served through

POLITICS l\ BRYAN COUNTY.
Democrat* Met at Clyde—Death or
Ordinary Cl nntnn.
Ways Station, Aug. 9.—The Democrats
of Bryan held a special meeting at Clyde,
Ga., to elect anew chairman and anew
Executive Committee, and to discuss the
question as to whether they should make
a nomination or not.
Mr. Wm. Osteen of Groveland was
elected chairman of the Executive Com
mittee. There was also a change made
in the reprs ntaion of each district.there
being now two delegates from each dis
trict, and one at large, the chairman
chosen by the majority of the delegates.
It was decided not to have any nomina
tion of candidates for the October elec
tion. The negroes in the Twentieth Dis
trict have in the past always voted with
their Democratic friends in local politics,
and a nomination with the proposed res
trictions would be a great hardship on
ihe Twentieth District. The Twentieth
District had an able leader. E. L. Com
mins, who fought down every amendment
favoring a nomination, and finally suc
ceeded in having the meeting rejecting
the nomination amendment.
Bryan county is m mourning for the
loss of one of her best citizens and of
ficers, Mr. J. D. Clanton, who has been
ordinary of the county for three teims,
and would have had another, had he lived.
Mr. Clanton died afier a very short illness
of pneumonia, he leaves a wife and sev
eral children, lie was a model father and
husband, and his death Is a shock to
every citizen in this county'.
There will Ik* an election for the unex
pited term of hi* office, to take place on
Aug. 22. The Twentieth District has \
candidate for it this time. Mr. W. R.
Bragg, who has made such an efficient
Justice of ihe peace of thi* district for
the last eight years. He has many friends,
and this district has not had an ordinary
in it for over twenty years, and the voter*
think they should share the officers
around a little, and give each district a
show. There ate two other candidates in
the field.
Diamond* In Her False Teeth.
From (he Philadelphia Ledger.
Newport. R. 1 , Aug. 7.—An upper s*t
of false teeth, evidently those of a woman,
was found on the bathing beach at Nar
vigonsctt pier. The teeth contained two
small diamonds, worth at least $23 each.
An attempt has been made to engrave
a photograph on one of the teeth. The
gold plate was badly worn. A notice
posted at Sherry's pavilion has brought
no owner. The chances are that if a
hather was not drowned in the surf some
seosick passenger on an excursion bout
heaved them overboard. They could
have hardly been burled to cover crime.
Their owner was probably a departed
transient.

THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, AUGUST 10,1900.
IN ORDER TO BE CURED
What Must You Do? You Cannot Cure Yourself, and
Nature M ill Not Cure You.
■ Are You the Man to Whom Thin lg Wtrtten? If so* You Wl|l
JfjS*. “ Know What to Do.
jH In order for you to be cured, it is not only necessary
that the doctor who treats you should know aboslutely
Hr the disease which affetes you, but just how far that dis
ease and all its complications have undermined what is
called your general health.
Can you tell, from your feelings, what vital organs of
your body your disease is now attacking? You feel at
j) times that your nerves are unstrung, that your brain
® does not grasp things as It should, that your kidneys are
" out of order, that your heart does not beat regularly,you
J.Newton Hathaway,M.Dknow that a little cut or scratch on your skin does not
heal readily, that your appetite is fickle, that your bowels are irregular, that
there is lameness and stiffness about your muscles and joints, that there are
shooting pains in different parts of your body, that your feet and joints swell,
that your nights are disturbed by unnatural dreams, that you are startled by
common sounds, that you get dizzy and see spots floating before your eyes.
Every one of these symptoms means the serious progress of your disease.
You don't want to experiment, you want to be cured. You want to be rid of every
distressing symptom; you want to feel that vigor and enthusiasm which goes
with true healthy manhood; you want to be able to work and to enjoy.
I have treated cases like yours for 20 years; I know what your symptoms
mean, and I know that if you have not delayed too long, I can make you a
sound, well, vigorous man, fitted for the place in the world which nature intended
for you. Other doctors send me their “hopeless*’ cases knowing that I never fail
in any case which I undertake. I make a specialty of cases like yours—chronic
diseases which baffle the skill of other physicians.
Let me know’ about your case In fullest detail. Come to my office if you can;
If you cannot, write to me. Unless you take a course of treatment, it will cost
you nothing for my services—consultation and advice are free. Possibly you need
no medicine; if not. I will tell you so and tell you what to do and you need pay
me nothing; possibly also I cannot help you—if not, I will tell you so frankly
and without fee.
At most my charge will be merely a nominal one, which will be no financial
burden to you.
I have just published anew edition of my new 64-p page book, “Manliness,
Vigor, Health," a copy of which I will be glad to send you free, postpaid, if you
wdll send me your name and address.
You can judge much better what I can do for you, and so can I, after we
have had an interview’ or corresponded with each other.

Yankee Showman at Tien Twin.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Allentown. Aug. 7.—News of the tragi'*
death of Wellington Pflu©R©r, of this city,
at Tien Tsln was received to-day by his
mother. Pflueger was manager of War
ren’s clivus, and wae married to a daugh
tei of the owner. The circus was at T.iku
when the first Russian contingent went
up to Tien Tsln, and the march was made
easy for the Cossack soldiers, who plied
into the band wagon and on top of the
animal wagons and tableaux. With the
artillery and wagon* of the Russians and
the circus paraphernalia, the parade la
described in the Eastern press as unique.
The aggregation arrived nr Tt©n Tain
early in June, and on the J4th the big
tent was put up and the snow began.
Two days later, aocoidlng to Nilsmuller,
a refugee, who has reached Shanghai from
Tien Tsln, Mr. Pflueger was shot and
killed He was struck by a stray missile.
% Ileal Hero.
From the Chicago Journal.
Once In awhile the newspapers are Il
luminated by a talc of heroism all tht
more Impressive because the circumstan
ces are commonplace. One of these in
stances ot splendid self-sacrifice was
given in this morning's papers in the re
port of the ride of the boy, Thomas Nor
ris
The Norris family had been poisoned by
toadstools. Young Norris himself was
one of the victims. Suffering intense ag
ony the child managed to saddle a horse,
rode three miles for a physician, and
brought him back to care for the family.
His pluck saved four lives, but not his
own, alas! He was the first to die.
The glamour cf a romantic setting is
not needed for'the picture of this great
hearted lad, with his dying breath urg
ing his horse across the prairie. “Great
er love hath no man than this, that a
man lay down his life for his friends.”
KINLEY ill VCK \VI\S AGAIN.
Toole JleverwycU Ilandirnp From
Ethellicrt and Good Field.
Saratoga, N. Y., Aug. 9.—Klnley Mack
won the Beverwyek handicap from a good
field this afternoon, but the victory was
in a sense a fluke, for Ethelbert was al
most left standing at the post, and at
the end was only beaten by a head. When
the flag fell with the Brighton cup winner
many lengths in the rear of the field, a
storm of hisses expressed the disapproval
of the spectators.
The race was run on a track exactly
suiting Kinley Mack, it having dried out
just enough to make it dead. Ethelbert
opened up at even money, but lack of
support sent his price to 2% to 1 at post
time. Kinley Mack opened at 15 to 1 and
was played down to 10 to 1. Martimas se
cured third money, a length away. The
mile was run in 1:41.

1, second, and MacFlecknoe, 8 to 1, third.

Bureau Observer Dosher at Hatteras,
N. C.:
“The British steamer Palestro, Capt.
Armstrong, from Pensacola for Liverpool,
via Newport News for coal, stranded at 9
o'clock this morning on Diamond shoals.
Six men have just landed at Cape. Hat
teras in their own boat, atrd the remainder
of the crew, 24 men, are alongside the ship
in boats. The crews of the Cape Hatteras
and Creed's Hill life saving station went
to the assistance of the ship. A dense
fog has prevailed in this locality all day,
until this afternoon about 2 o'clock, when
it lifted, and the ship was discovered by
the life-saving crews. The second mate,
who came ashore in the ship’s boat, re
ports twelve feet of water in the main
hold and thinks it doubtful if the ship can
be saved.

FIGUREHEADS FOR SHIPS.

From the Fortland Express
The days of the fancy figureheads on
ships are almost forgotten In this age of
pioln bowed five and six masters. There
was a time when a ship without a fancy
bowptece was Ihe exception; now the re
verse Is the ease. The appearance In a
Maine harbor of one of these old speci
mens of the artistic era in Maine ship
building would be hailed with enthusiasm
by the veteran shipmasters, and by the
younger generation of sailors would be
regarded with wonder. It would, at all
events, be a curiosity to the occasional
water front vls.tor.

Columbia Drug Cos.. Savannah. Ga.:
Gentlemen—lt gives me pleasure to
heartily recommend Infants' Friend
Powder, and to give to you a singu
lar little coincident connected with it.
During the Couon States and In
ternational Exposition I was presen
ted with a little box of this powder,
and was so pleased with it that i
was exceedingly anxious to get more,
but on looking at the box I found
nothing but Savannah, Ga., no other
address. I have often wished I knew
where lo get it. This morning's
mail brought your circular with en
closed sample I Immediately re
ferred to my box, and found it was
the Infants' Friend Powder. It is
without doubt the best powder I have
ever used. Respectfully,
MRS. WM. KING.
into port without a figurehead at the bow
was like an unpolished shoe. It was all
the fad. and entered into the plans for a
vessel about as much as the hull or rig
ging. it gave a finished appearance to
the craft which we don’t see in these
dnvs, and was not an expensive addition,
either.
“1 believe I am the only one of the old
carvers now in the business. I started
over forty years ago. The only work in
the ship carving line of late is confined to
repairing principally in cabin work. I re.
member the elder Nahum Littlefield and
. Edward Chapman who were In the busi-
I ness nearly 50 years ago on Central wharf.
Mr. Littlefield was succeeded by his son
Nahum, formerly chief engineer of the
fire department, who continued the busi
ness under the firm name of Nahum Li'-
tlefle.d & Brothers, but when the demand
for this work disappeared they retired.
Theodore Johnson was also in the busi
ness on Union street, but he, too. gave It
up when the decline in the ship curver'a
trade set in.
T he designs for bow and stern adorn
ments were varied. Bust and full length
figures were considerably In demand, al
though the dragon was a popular bow
piece. Those who didn’t have a figure on
the bow generally had what we failed a
billet head with curved trail boards. In
such a case there was usually on the stern
some fancy carved moulding intertwined
with small figures. There were quite a
number of busts nnd full length figures
and spread-eagle both on bow and stern.
Tfce reclining figure of a woman was also
in much demand, P'or instance, if a ship
was named for a woman, it was probable
that a bust or full length figure of a wo
man would be used as a figurehead.
“In some cases the bust or full length
figure of a man would be used If the ves
sel had been named for some well known
citizen. I remember the old ship. Wil
liam G. Davis, had a bust of him in the
stern moulding. I believe the ship Phl
lena. owned by J. S. Winslow, had a full
length figure of Mrs. Winslow. The Phi
lena was a handsome ship, but was lost
many years ago. The ship Alice Cooper,
built at Knightvllle by ex-Mayor Ran
dall s father, had one of the handsomest
figures of any of the vessels coming in<o
Ihe hnrbor. It was the full length figure
of a woman. In my time I did consider
able work for vessels built by J. 9. Wins
low and Russel Lewis. The business be
gan 10 decline when the profits in vessels
commenced to disappear. The. carving of
figureheads grew to be looked upon as
unnecessary, although the expense of
such adornment usually rnn from SIOO to
S3OO. The flnjt decline began w’Uh the
demand for Tighter and less expensive
mouldings, until finally the fad or custom
dropped out entirely. Asa substitute
common rope came Into use. A coll of
rope with a knot In the center was at
first used, hut now not even this is seen
on one-half the vessels. The eye for the
artistic in ship building seems to have
been blinded in these later days by pure
ly financial motives.
“Many vessels of the present time have
head and trull boards on the bow, and
eome have the scroll head. Borne have a
fancy quarter board on the side for the
vessel’s name. Fancy carving on the in
terior and exterior of the cabin, are some'
what in use now. Hut all the Inside and
outside cabin decoration can never take
the place, from an artistic view, of th
handsome figurehead of the old days. The
old business is gone,” said Mr. Griffin,
“and I do not expect to live to see Its
revival.”
Mr. GrifTen explained that the figure
heads formerly in use were usually made
of hard pine nnd were carved by hand.
