NO SWEARING THERE 1 Washington Chronicle: The fishermen who have been out this spring enjoying the sport, say that the fish are so nu merous in the creeks and rivers, a fel low has to get behind a tree when he goes to bait his book, or else the raven ous tish will get the bait before the si.are is ready to secure him. SWAPPING THE JI'DGES. C'ordele News: It is to he noticed that whenever a North Georgia Superior Court judge comes down into the Wiregrass re gion to hold court lie makes the lawyers and court officers "too the mark." delivers a red-hot charge to the grand jury, cleans up the docket and applies the "new broom" that "sweeps clean" to things generally, and whenever one. of our South Georgia judges goes up Into the moun tains to hold court he does things in very' much the same way. And this sug gests the Idea that it would he well to have the judges change circuits more generally than they do. E\PI. AN \TIONS WANTED. Washington Chronicle: A negro man went into a big dry goods and clothing store In town few days since and pur chased a. coat. The clerk wiio served him is not distinguished for writing a very legible hand, and when the book keeper got hold of the item he charged the hapless colored man with one corset. Instead of a coat. He afterwards came in and settled his account, unaware of the fact that he was charged with a cor set which he never carried home. Upon arriving home his wife, who can read, scanned over the bill and her eagle eye soon fell upon the Incriminating Rem and then there was war. In vain, her unfortunate spouse declared he "hadn’t bought no corset." But she was uncon vinced. and a divorce seemed probable. Finally the darkey persuaded his wife to accompany him to the store, so as to get at the boltom of the mystery. The clerk, bookkeeper and irate negroes then held a conference, and matters were satisfactor ily adjusted. I/OCK GAME IN AUGUST .A. Augusta Chronicle: Notwithstanding the fact that gambling is not counte nanced in the oily this week by the Mer ry Makers, anew skin game was pulled yesterday. It is what is known os the "lock” game.

Of course, this is easily done and then the fellows says there must be some mistake. He takes the lock and then hands another one back to you which cannot possibly be opened. Before you know what has happened you have been frosted end the operator and his “cap per" have skipped out and you are minus the amount that you bet. Two negroes, George Brooks and Kd Green, were ar rested for running this game. Both of them hailed from Savannah, and on one of them a pawn ticket for 12.50 on a coat was found, and the chief thinks that le has raptured a thief who Is wanted in the above-mentioned city. EDITORIAL COMMENT. Valdosta Times: The state of Georgia is 1o make a very fine geological exhibit at the Buffalo Exposition. Such an ex hibit will advertise the mineral resources of North Georgia at the expense of the entire state. Why not also exhibit rime of the products of South Georgia?

VANDERBILT'S LAST COIN. He Kept the f nsrh Waiting Till He Found it. From the New York Press. With the horn on the top of Pioneer tooting that all was in readiness to start, the friends who were with him calling to him to make haste, Alfred Gwynne Van derbilt delayed the departure of his coach laVt Friday while he searched the floor of the Getty House barroom in Yonkers for a lost coin. He shoved about the chairs, kicked the cuspidor and moved the stand of the bootblack in his search for the lost wealth. While he was doing Hits tlie sweeper made all sorts of dou ble crosses in the hope that the head of the Vanderbilt- would depart and permit the good old saying. "Let the porter find it." become a reality. On Friday last Mr. Vanderbilt and his wife, with a party of friends, made the trip front the Waldorf to Ardsley on the Pioneer. When the coach drew up at the Getty House, where horses are changed in quick time, Mr. Vanderbilt and a con pie of others were already swung down on the steps to run In and have a drink. They dashed into the room and up to the bar, calling out their orders as they ran. Haste was necessary, because the horses are changed in quick time, and the coach dashes on within five minutes. It was .Mr. Vanderbilt’s treat, for he drew a handful of coins from his pocket to 1 ay. As he did so. one of them dropped to the floor and rolled away. Mr. Vander bilt tossed a half dollar on the bar and started to search for the missing coin. He had already gulped down his drink. His companions had already started for the door. While he searched the horn to start blew, hut Mr. Vanderbilt search ed on. He upset a cuspidor and shoved the bootblack's stand, looked in the cor ners and ai! about the floor. The horn sounded again and the coach was swung into the best position for start ing, but he kept on his search. His friends shouted for him to come on, but he kept on searching. Visions of a dou ble eagle at least floated before the eyes of the porter. The horn sounded again, this time impatiently, for even boots was becoming worried over the lost time. Just then Mr. Vanderbilt found his coin, nd slipping it into his pocket, rushed out. It was a 1-eent piece. A REM ARKABLE INNING. Detroit Wins levelling Game With Ten Runs In Ninth Inning.

A PLAIN TALK TO SENSIBLE PEOPLE * There are thousands of people afflicted with chronic diseases who have not known a well day for years, although not confined to their beds. They are able to be up, but totally incapacitated for work or pleasure. I want to convey a word of hope to such sufferers. You are not incurable, but you will never be well unless you give your condition some serious, intelligent thought and realize that health is the most valuable possession to he hod. and that the best treatment is not too good for you. I have been n specialist for 20 years, which time has been devoted exclusively to the treatment of chronic, diseases. 1 have treated more cases than any other physician and my patients reside in every state of the Union. I have treated thousands of cases, and cured them promptly, which had been un der various kinds of treatment for years. Every case which comes to me I find re quires some special attention, which no ready-made medicine curt reach, and this explains why u cure cannot be expected from patent medicines. There Is some thing In medical science which can reach your condition, and cure you. but special treatment must be prepared for your own Individual case. My long experience and acknowledged skill warrants me In saying that l can cuie 98 per cent, of all case* undertaken 1 study carefully every case, and treat It on Its Individual merits. I use no ready made medicine?, and warn you against llie folly of exi*erlmenting with so-called "free” samples, many of which are noth ing more than poisonous and Injurious stimulants. if you are afflicted with any chronic disease, such as Bladder and Kidney Dis eases, Blood I’olson, Rheumatism, Ca tarrh, Varicocele. Stricture, Lost Man hood. etc., you owe it to yourself to take only tha last treatment, which I* always the cheapest in the end. I can promise you the most experl treatment obtainable anywhere and can give satisfactory reference* both as to my professional skill and financial standing No charge for consultation and advice Complete 44-psge book and self-examina tion blanks sent free to any sddrrts It "A" Bryan Burst, Savannah, <ia Oilier hours | a ni lo 1J in , J to t. 7 10 * p m Bunder*. 14 a in to 1 p m 4. hblViUh UaTUA-V) At, M U THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY. APRIL 26. 1901. MARINE INTELLIGENCE. Local and General News of Ships and Shipping. The tug Abram Minis arrived yesterday from Philadelphia, where she took a tow from Jacksonville. The Minis was delay ed considerably in starting, owing to a mishap in hauling her off the marine rail way, which kept her high and dry for several days. In entering the mouth of the river yesterday the tug dashed along at a rate which showed her speed admir ably. The claims of her builders for her speed and running qualities have appar ently been confirmed. The Danish steamer Marsellsborg was shifted to the Union Shipping Company’s wharv’es yesterday to load cotton. The schooner Jennie Thomas. Capt. Campbell, sailed yesterday for Philadel phia with a cargo of yellow pine lumber. Coastwise lumber freights have contin ued extremely dull, the inaction being at tributed in some measure to the heavy rains that have seriously interrupted op erations at the mills. Tonnage offers quite freely, with owners showing a dis position to consider bids of 44 52 1 2. Bruns wick to New York, but this figure appeal's difficult to obtain. Coal orders from East ern points have been in free receipt dur ing the week, and the demand for ton nage has improved. Shippers to points 'beyond the Cape are prepared to meet 63 to 75 cents as to size of vessel find port, but tonnage is sparingly offered at this range. Passenger* ly 3tenm*liip.

When the patrons of the track arrived they were surprised to find the home stretch for about seventy yards com pletely inundated and also part of the back stretch covered with water. The horsemen and pockeys were consulted on the advisability of carrying out the day’s programme and by unanimous consent the card was run. off.

McNeal in Topeka Mail.) It is intimated that the czar of Russia is tired of his job and ready to give it up if he can find sotno good man to take the. place, on the condition, of course, that the czar shall have a sufficient al lowance to keep him in good shape as long as he lives. Our special correspond ent in Russia informs us that this feel ing on the part of the czar is not alto gether new. He has never, to use a slang ful phrase, such as we rarely permit, in these columns, been psrticulary stuck on the Job. I-ooklng back over his family history and judging as to what has hap pened to his ancestors, he figures that he stunds about one chance in ten of dying a natural death. He stands about three chances in ten of being poisoned; about two chances in ten of being per forated by a bullet: about four chances in ten of being blown up by dynamite. "I tell you, my boy.” said the czar In n familiar manner as he laid his hand on the shoulder of the reporter, "the fellows out in Kansas may think this thing of being a czar at the regular salary of five million per year Is n soft snap, but if they were in my place, or if any one of them was, he would change his mind. Of course you observe that the lean-to of the palace was blown up last night. The Impression got out some way or other that 1 was In the habit of sleep ing In the lean-to. Wit that was a mistake. If It hadn't been a mistake they might have been gathering up my remains with a garden rake this morning. But I don't worry about a little thing like that so much, after it Is over. I am getting used to It. The thing that makes me lose flesh Is the uncertainty of this business. I never know when I get up in the morn ing whether I will be nil In one piece at sundown and I don't dare to take right hold of my victuals like a hungry man should because I don't know how much prussic acid may be mixed with the menu. "It is necessary for me to call In the taster of the royal household and make him taste a few bttes out of each dish before I feel safe in tilling my Interior with the provender provided. If I observe a look of pain ixrnie over the face of the taster of the royal household after ha has taken a mouthful out of a dish then. I let that dish stone.
