SECTION GANG'S CLOSE CALL.
A Southern Railway section gang or. a
handcar had a very thrilling experience
near Waverly Hill Monday morning with
the regular passenger train out of Colum
bus. The shriek of the rapidly approach
ing engine caught the crew between two
Sleep embankments. It was seen that
nothing could be done but to hold the car
by main force against the side of the
cut until the train passed. But two of the
negroes became unnerved and slackened
their hold, allowing the step of the engine
to hit the handcar. Two negroes, Henry
Boddy and Robert Rendor, were hurt, the
former's leg being broken.

Americus Times-Reeonder: Anyone with
a real good seine can recover from the
creek bottoms around And.rsonville, t
sufficient number of pistols, dirks and
bowle knives to equip a regiment of Fill
pinos. A reputable colored citizen who
was at Andersonville last Thursday told
the Times-Recorder yesterday that when
the soldiers and sheriff's posse began
rounding up tthe armed blacks, the latter
began to shed their pistols. They were
thrown by the dozen, he says, In the creek

would be cheaper to buy another gun than
go to jail and pay a heavy fine.

days in town the guests of relatives. Mr.
Emerson, his wife and son, Ben, own a
farm in this county, near Brandon Sta
tion. About five years ago, they removed
to Kansas. Six months ago they deter
mined to return to their old home. The
journey was a slow but pleasant and
profitable one. When they started from
Kansas, the family took with them a
drove of fine horses, and disposed of near
ly all of them to advantage on the way.

had ample time to see the country as
they progressed. The nights they spent

Aged Citizen of Bullock Dead—Dys
entery Causing .Many Death*.
Statesboro. Ga., June s.—Mr. Isaac Hol
lingsworth, who lives near Catneron in
Screven county, just across the Ogeechee,
died this morning at the advanced age of
96 years. He was the oldest man in these
parts by several years and was as spry
and agile up to about one year ago as a
man of fifty. He was very fond of horse
back riding and keipt it up until very re
cently. He mounted and dismounted all
alone and attended to his own affairs. He
died of diserrtery, the disease that is so
prevalent in the country just now. He
leaves a large number of children and
grand-children In that section, and is the
grand-father of Miss Isabelle Hollings
worth. who is expected to teach in the
Normal Institute here this fall, Mr. Hol
lingsworth was reared in the community
in which he lived, and saved up a con
siderable fortune, placing all his money in
the bank.
Mr. I>eonard Bland of Fly, Ga., seven
miies above here, has just lost three chil
dren with dysentery, and has another
child that is not expected to live. It ap
pears to be common throughout the coun
try and is fatal with children.
Considerable interest is manifested here
and ail along the line of the Bruton and
Pineora Railroad, in the new schedule that
is to be put on next Sunday. The train
will arrive here about 8:30 a. m. from Bru
ton and about 5:30 from Savannah. It will
be very convenient for the business men
as the; can get their work started off in
the morning, go to town and 1 return early
In the evening. It hardly gives time
enough in Savannah but as there are other
trains leaving the city later, with it the
people here will have line service. Every
one is wanting to know if the shoofly will
continue as It now runs Some think that
it will and some that it will not. One
great advantage that the train will give
is Ihe increased mail facilities. Hereto
fore the mails from the upper portion of
the county- have had to go via Bruton and
were a long time in reaching their desti
nation.
The farmers are having trouble with
lice on their cotton. They are due, it is
thought, to the continued wet weather and
cool spell that has Just passed.

When there is a natural and healthy circulation of the blood, the entire
quantity, estimated at one-eighth the weight of the body, passes through the heart
every five minutes. This rapid flow of the blood through the system prevents the
entrance of disease germs and impurities of every description. It filters out alt that
is not necessary or gaod for the growth and development of the body and nourish
ing and strengthening the muscles, tissues, nerves and bones. But, unfortunately,
few persons can rightly claim an absolutely pure blood supply and perfect ana
unpolluted circulation, and in consequence are exposed to innumerable diseases.
Contagious Blood Poison, the greatest enemy to mankind, enters the system
through the blood, and Cancer, Scrofula, Rheumatism, Catarrh, Eczema, Salt
Rheum, Psoriasis, Tetter— in fact the majority of human ailments are caused by
poisons or humors that are engen
dered and fostered in a sluggish TftC BlOOd IS ttlG SOUIHIG
aad impoverished blood. Old __ _
sores, chronic ulcers and rheumatic pains are com- Qf AH
*uon, especially among old people, whose blood
naturally grows thin and pale because of the lack of the red corpuscles that give
coior and strength to youthful blood. Sallow complexions and rough, oily skins
evidence some constitutional or blood trouble, which salves, lotions, powders nor
any external treatment can enre. Diseases that originate in the blood, whether
they manifest themselves as ulcers, tumors, itching eruptions, muscular oi bone
ffcnns, require a tonic and blood purifier such as S. S. S., which not only antidotes
and neutralizes blood poisons and humors, but possesses health-giving tonic proper
ties that no other blood medicine does, it goes down to the very foundation oi
the disease and eliminates from the system every*
Polluted BlOOd thing of a poisonous character or that obstructs and
clogs the circulation. It builds up and imparts
Breeds Disease new strength a-.d vitality to the old innutritiou*
blood, and when the arteries and veins are once
more filled with new rich blood, the general health begins to improve, muscle*
grow stronger, and sores and eruption* of every kind disappear.
S. S. S. is the only guaranteed purely vegetable blood purifier, and the (rarest
nnd most reliable in all blood disease*. It has been tested in thousands of cases
during the past fifty years and is mere popular today than ever. We will b* glad
to send you our book free, and if in Heed of medical advice write our physicians all
about your case ; this information will cost you nothing and comes from expert
nced and educated doctors. All correspondence is conducted in stricter

FROM WATER FRONT
TIG ABRAM MINIS DELAYED AT
PHILADELPHIA. 4
MAY HAUL OUT FOR REPAIRS.
WORK ON >EW RIVER STEAMBOAT
TO BEGIN TO-DAY.
She Will Be Built for the Savannah
River Steafnhoat Company at the
Wharves Above Town—Bureau of
Navigation Report* Vessel* Built
to June I—Matters of Interest to
Shippers and Mariners.
The Savannah tug Abram Minis, Capt.
Frank B. Avery, which was to have sail
ed from Philadelphia, towing the govern
ment, disinfecting barge Defender, met
with a mishap and will be delayed in
starting. It is understood that the Minis
damaged her bottom, but the details of
the accident are not known. It is further
understood that the damages may neces
sitate hauling the tug out, which will
cause further delay because of the rush
the shipbuilders have at this season.
The Defender is to be towed to Porto
Rico, but so far she ihas been unfortunate
in getting started. The previous delay
was caused by the desire of the govern
ment to make additional preparations for
the voyage, so that the towboat people
had to wait. While the Minis has been
unfortunate in having to haul out since
she went into commission, little time has
been lost, and if she has to haul out again
the nature of the repairs to be made are
not such as to require a great deal of
time.
Work on New Steamboat.
•
The Savannah River Steamboat Com
pany will begin to-day - the building of

preliminary work has ben delivered. Mr.
J. M. Graham, of Dublin, Ga., is the
builder. As previously stated the new
boat is being built especially for the Sa
vannah river trade, and will have facili
ties for the prompt handling of freight.
