2 NEWS OF A DAY IN GEORGIA’S CAPITAL UNWARRANTED AND UNJUST ■AYS COL. THOMASON OF GEN. BARRY’S CRITICISM. Co]. Thoninoon, Who Woo In Com mand of the Georgia Troops at Maaaaona. Sara That the Report ot Gen. Barry Doe Them a Great Injaatiee—Col. Tliomaoon Ha* a Few Things to Tell When He Makes Ilia Report. Atlanta, Nov. 3. —Col. Usher Thoma •on, who had charge of the Georgia Troops, who went to the army man euvers at Manassas, considers Gen. Thomas H. Barry's criticism of the Second Georgia Provisional Regiment “unwarranted and unjust.” Col. Thomason wtas here to-day on business, and on being asked for a statement as to Gen. Barry’s criticism, said: “The report of Gen. Barry does the Georgians a great injustice. It is en tirely unwarranted, and I can see no occasion for it. Gen. Barry compli mented the Georgians constantly, while they were on duty. The regiment had good reasons for not going to the re view. My understanding was that all the other regiments in Gen. Barry’s brigade, wihen they marched down to Wellington, took the trains at Welling ton to their homes, while if the Geor gians Wad gone it would have been necessary for them to have marched back ten miles through the dust. “The sanitation of the camp was all right, so far as I could see. I visited the camp several times and thought it a model of neatness. "When I nfake my report to Gov. Terrell, I will tell a few things about the encampment that I observed. I shall get reports in very soon from the various company commanders, and then I will make up my report.” On being asked if he heard Gen. Barry curse, he said: ‘‘No, I did not hear him curse myself, but I under stand from other officers that he used considerable profanity.” No Grayson Court-Martial. According to statements from the Adjutant General’s office there Is no ■ground for the supposition that Lieut. Col. W. L. Grayson can be oourt-mar tialed for his criticisms of Gen. Barry. Under the present arrangement each state has charge of the disciplining of its own troops, and the only way in which anything could be done is for the War Department to present the matter to Gov. Terrell, who could act or not, as he saw fit. There is no likelihood of this being done. Trial of Manston. The trial of Charles A. Manston, su perintendent of the Southern Engrav ing Company, on a charge of making counterfeit plates for United States money, was continued in the United States court to-day. Practically all the witnesses have been examined, and the trial will probably be concluded to morrow. Witnesses to-day were put up to Pf-ove an alibi for Manston. stating that he was not in the engraving plant after 11 o’clock on the night when the plates are said to have been made. Several Atlanta preachers testified as to Manston’s good character. Pardon for Wliitten. Gov. Terrell to-day pardoned Will Whitten, who since November, 1901, has been serving a sentence of five years for alleged assault with intent to rape. He was convicted in Cobb county. Recent developments estab lished an alibi for him. and it is said he was not guilty of the crime. Corner Stone Laying Jnn. ID. The John B. Gordon Monument As sociation has decided to lay the cor ner stone of the equestrian statue to Gen. Gordon on Lee’s birthday, Jan. 19. The base of the monument will be set up on the Capitol grounds, probably sometime before the contract has been let for making the heroic statue of Gen. Gordon. Pulling for James County. T. J. James of Adrian, Emanuel county, was in the city to-day and put in some work at the Capitol in behalf of the new county that is wanted by the people of his section to be known as James county and to Include parts of Emanuel, Montgom ery, Laurens and Johnson. It is said there will be applications for at least thirty new counties, most of them from South Georgia, while only eight can be established under the recently adopted constitutional amendment.

Unicom May Have Been Fatally In jured at Vltlalia. Macon, Nov. 3.—Will Balcom, a white fireman on the Macon, Dublin and Savannah Railroad, is at the City Hospital to-night in a dying condi tion from the effects of scalding caused by the blowing out of an arch plug of a passenger engine two miles from Vidalia yesterday. The physi cians say that he cannot live. Engin eer C. L. Me Waters was uninjured. The arch plug is inside the boiler, so that a volume of steam shot through the door of the engine furnace with volcanic effect, almost cooking the man. Balcom lives in Macon. THE ROOT OF THE MATTER. He Cured lilmsclf of Serious Stomach Trouble by Getting Down to First Principles. A man of large affairs in one of our prominent Eastern cities, by too close attention to business, too little exer cise and too many club dinners, final ly began to pay nature’s tax, levied in the form of chronic stomach trou ble; the failure of his digestion brought about a nervous Irritability, making it impossible to apply himself to his dally business, and finally de ranging the kidneys and heart. In his own words he says; “I con sulted one physician after another, and each one seemed to Understand my case, but all the same they each failed to bring about the return of my former digestion, appetite and vigor. For two years I went from pillar to post, from one sanitarium to another. I gave up smoking, I quit coffee and even renounced my daily glass or two of beer, but without any marked im provement. “Friehds had often advised me to try a well known proprietary medi cine, Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tahlets, and I had often perused the newspaper advertisements of the remedy, but never took any stock in advertised medicines nor could believe a SO-cent patent medicine would touch my case. "To make a long story short, I finally bought a couple of packages at the nearest drug store and took two or three tablets after each meal, and occasionally a tablet betweeij meals, when I felt any feeling of nausea or discomfort. ”1 was surprised at the end of the first week to note a marked Improve ment In my appetite and general health, and before the two packages were gone I was certain that Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets was going to cure completely, and they did not disap point me. 1 can eat and sleep and en joy my coffee and cigar, and no one would suppose I had ever known the horrors of dyspepsia. "Out of friendly curiosity I wrote to the proprietors of the remedy ask ing for information as to what the tahlets contained, and they replied that the principal ingredients were aseptic pepsin (government test), malt distaae and Other natural diges tives, which digest food regardless of the condition of the stomach.” The root of the matter is this, the digestive elements contained in Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food, give the overworked stom ach a chance to recuperative and the nerves and whole system receive the nourishment which can only come from food; stimulants and nerve tonics never give real strength, they give fictitious strength, invariably followed by reaction. Every drop of blood, every nerve and tissue is manu factured from our daily food, and If you can insure Its prompt action and complete digestion by the regular use of so good and wholesome a remedy as Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets, you will have no need of nerve tonics and sanitariums. Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been In the market only a few years, yet probably every druggist in the United States, Canada and Great Britain now sells them and considers them the most popular and successful of any preparation for stomach trou ble.
