“77”
Cures Grip and
COLDS
No Break Down.
One of the great advantages of Dr.
Humphreys' "Seventy-seven" is that
Its tonicity sustains the system during
and after the attack. So there is no
break down.
Half the misery of a Cold is the pros,
tration, the lassitude, the slow con
valescence. A cure hy "77" is a com
plete cure; no aftermath of weak
chest, tender throat or stopped-up
head. When you’re cured you’re cur
ed. and that's the end of it.
"77” is a small vial of pleasant pel
lets that fits the vest pocket—ever
handy.
At druggists, 25c each, or mailed.

RIFLE TEAMS
IN THE NAVY
CRACK SHOTS AMONG MIDDIES
TO CONTEST KOfl TIIB MLTOX
TROPHY.
Practice With Rig Guns to Be Sup
plemental With Rifle Practice and
Contests Among Teams From the
Ships—Rifle Shooting to he a Fea
ture at the Naval Academy—The
Hilton Trophy at the Xavy De
partment,
By R. M. Darner.
Washington, Oct. 29.—Since the es
tablishment of the National Board for
the Promotion of Rifle Practice, which
was organized hy the War Depart
ment under act of Congress for the
purpose of stimulating popular inter
est in military rifle and revolver prac
tice, and affording facilities for the
same, there has been a marked in
crease in the attention paid to this
work in both the regular army, and,
somewhat strange to say, in the navy.
In addition to keeping up their work
wit'h the 'big guns the "jackies” have
developed a liking for practice with
the rifle and the success of the navy
team at Fort Riley recently has led
to a plan for the further encourage
ment of small arms practice in the
navy. It is intended that teams be
formed on shipboard so that a spirit
tof rivalry will be created between the
crews of the ships. Lieut. Babin of
the navy will have charge of a gen
eral naval team which will keep up
continuous practice at Annapolis un-.
■til the next competition for the Hil
ton trophy, won by that team at Fort
Riley. The members of the team have
been assigned to the ships attached
to the coast squadron for the pur
pose of being at hand for practice.
The Navy Department has sent a
letter to the authorities of the Naval
Academy inquiring as to the condi
tion of the range and the practicabil
ity of extending the same. It is hoped
next year to have a match between
the cadets at West Point and Annap
olis. The "middles” were ready to
contest this year, 'but West Point
either could not or would not furnish
a team.
The Hilton trophy has been shot for
since 1878 and bears the names of
some sixteen or more organizations
which have held it for one or more
years during that period. It will be
placed in the reception room of the
office of the Secretary of the Navy.

New York, Oct. 29. —Alleging that an
Italian. Vincento Stioffl, of Williams
Bridge, had kidnapped two boys and
taken them to Dover, N. C., where he
had sold them to a padrone, the father
of one of the boys and the mother of

TOM WATSON ADDRESSED
GREAT CROWD AT AUGUSTA
Populist Candidate Replied to the Attacks of
the Chronicle.
Augusta, Oct. 29. —The Populist
candidate for the presidency, Thomas
E. Watson, spoke to an immense au
dience here to-night. A recent news
paper attack on Mr. Watson and his
promise to reply in a public speech
had aroused more than ordinary Inter
est, and the Court House, where the
meeting was held, was inadequate to
accommodate those who clamored for
admission.
Much of the address was of purely
local Interest, Mr. Watson devoting a
part of two hours to the manager and
editor of the Chronicle before he got
down to national Issues.
Some weeks ago the Chronicle, In a
display editorial, attacked Mr. Wat
son, charging that he was endeavoring
to disturb the peace that had come
over the state. It said that Populism
was practically dead, and that most of
those who had wandered away from
the Democratic fold had returned. His
entrance into the field now as a candi
date for the presidency, was calculated
to stir up the old strife anew and
would do harm.
The editorial was scathing and
caused Mr. Watson to retort through
the Herald, promising that he would
come to Augusta before the campaign
was over, when he would tell the Dem
ocrats of Augusta a few things that
would stir them up considerably. It
was to keep this promise that he came
here to-night.
NOT KNOWN HOW MANY
MET THEIR DEATH.
Extent of the Disaster at the Colo
rado Mine Cannot he Learned.
Trinidad, Col., Oct. 29.—The number
of miners killed by the mine explosion
yesterday in Terclo is still unknown.
Officers of the Rocky Mountain Coal
and Iron Company declare that so far
as they know, there were only twenty
one men in the mine at the time of the
explosion. Miners employed in the
camp say there were between thirty
and sixty men In the mine.
The number of dead will not be as
certained until after the mine is thor
oughly explored.
The men are foreigners who had been
recently imported to take the place*
of strikers, and their names have not
been learned.
Three bodies, so badly burned and
mutilated as to be unrecognizable,
were taken out to-night.
ran away with pistol.
For stealing a pistol from A. O.
Marin, a gunsmith on Congress street,
Isaac Haywood, a negro, was arrested
early last night by Bicycle Officer
Christie. The negro went Into fhe
store and asked to be shown a pistol.
He examined It and then ran out of
the door with It. Marin gave chime,
and afterwards the officer got into the
game and caught the negro.
In the breezy English that character
izes his writings, he poured a search
ing broadside into the Chronicle, and
Democracy, as it exists In Richmond
county. The Black-Watson contest
was referred to and from first to last
the leader of the Populists did not al
low the Interest to flag.
He declared that he was opposed to
President Roosevelt, and would like to
"crush out his political life,” but every
one must concede that Roosevelt was
a man straddling nothing but the war
horse, while Parker straddled every
thing except that steed, not daring to
take a firm stand even on the race
question.
"Would that I had three months i
longer,” he exclaimed, “to preach my
doctrines, and the Democratic party
would take out Parker and choose me
to run against Roosevelt. I would
shake this continent from ocean to
ocean."
Mr. Watson said he did not expect to
be elected. He was but doing his duty,
hoping that by promulgating his prin
ciples the people would eventually be
brought to see aright. He said it was
absurd to suppose that he was in the
pay of the Republican party, when he
was fighting plutocracy with might and
main. 0
Mr. Watson will spend a few days
at his home In Thomson, Ga., near
here, before speaking in Atlanta.
TELEPHONE PLANT SOLD.

ENJOINED CITY OF MACON.
The Bond Election for Dec. 13 Has
Been Held lip.
Macon, Oct. 29.—The Mayor and
Council of the city of Macon were
to-day enjoined by Judge Felton of
the Bibb Superior Court from holding
the bond eleotion on Dec. 13, at which
time there would have been voted on
by the citizens of Macon the question
of issuing $175,000 in bonds for the pay
ment of the floating debt of the city,
which amounts to $183,000.
The injunction petition was brought
two weeks ago by Alderman Ben L<.
Jones, who declared then that if Coun
cil decided to hold the election, he
would seek to bar their action in the
state court on the ground of uncon
stitutionality, the bonded indebtedness
of the city being already $929,000, ex
ceeding, it was claimed, the limit of
the law.
The injunction stands until the final
hearing. It was hard fought on both
sides.

SAYS THAT HAY
“SNEAKED OUT”
OF THE NEGOTIATIONS THAT
WERE ON FOB THE NICARAGUAN
CANAL ROUTE.
Senator Morgan of Alabama Ad
dresses an Open Letter to the Sec
retary of State—Acenaea Him ot
Drawing an Imperfect Treaty
With Panama—No Apology Due
From Any Senator Who Voted
Againat the Ratification.
Washington. Oot. 29. —Senator Mor
gan of Alabama, in an open letter to
Secretary Hay made public to-night,
accuses that official of drawing an im
perfect treaty with Panama and of
having "sneaked out" of negotiations
for the Nicaraguan route.
The letter is intended as a reply to
he secretary’s recent speech in New
York. After stating that no apology
is due from any senator who voted
against the ratification of the Hay-
Bunau-Varilla treaty, for addressing
the secretary through the press be
cause of the fact that the secretary
in his speech had assailed such sena
tors. Senator Morgan says:
“It is not the sneaking out from
Panama that disturbs the country; it
Is sneaking Into Panama, after having
first sneaked under the wing of the
Panama Canal Company to find an
excuse for an act that the country de
plores."
He charges that Minister Silvia of
Colombia refused to sign the Hay-
Herran treaty because it was in vio
lation of the laws and constitution of
Colombia and that Dr. Herran was
designated as charge d'affaires to con
clude it.
"Then.” the Senator adds, "the soft
step and big stick of the President
was resorted to, and Dr. Herran was
threatened Into compliance."
The letter of Secretary Hay to Dr.
Herran, referred to in the speech of
Senator Culberson, Senator Morgan de
clares, was "the feather that broke
the camefs back.” The President, he
says, has commissioned an ambassador
to treat with Panama "in order to
cure radical defects In that hasty ne
gotiation,” and the Senator protests
that Secretary Hay should have com
pleted that work to meet the demands
of both countries before he "Indulged
In unbecoming criticisms, censures
and epithets against Democratic sen
ators.” The letter concludes as fol
lows:
"Before you charged tho Democratic
senators with the crime of ‘not believ
ing a word they say’ In their criticism
of your conduct, and that of the Pres
ident. and with the meanness of being
wilting to 'partake of the feast while
decrying the alleged robbers who pre
pared it,’ would It not have been more
in keeping with your exalted attitude
toward them, that you should have ex
plained your hasty dealings with Bti
nnu-Varllla, that you should have
cleansed your robes from th<* contact
with the culprits of the Pnam Canal
Company, and should have delivered
the country from that ’body of death’
that Franca has so long struggled to
onload upon On United Btataa.’*
