Letter From Norma Martinez Co.
„ TAMPA, f’la., January 26th, 1911
T. H. Pitts Co., Atlanta, Ga.,
Gentlemen: y
We are muoh pleased to be able.to inform you that the gen
eral tie-up in Tampa, due to the strike in the cigar factories,
'•.as been adjusted and that we are now working full foroe in our
factory.
We wish to thank you for your indulgence during the time of
our troubles, and the many inquiries and letters of good wishes
from our trade and friends.
vie .regret very much that we were forced to make and ship our
well known brands from a branch factory, from where, as a matter
of fact, our facilities for handling our large business were not
nearly so good or equal to our Tampa plant. We know that we are
giving the smoker the best value made in the U. S. today in our
"NORMA MARTINEZ", it being the only 6-inch Cigar made for whj.ch
the dealer pays $40,.00 per thousand net cash direct from the
factory and retails for 5 cents. ' *
Our reputation, we are pleased to state, has been-made on
the quality of our goods, and we wish to assure you that we are
now prepared to give the trade our usual high gfade goods, and
with some improvements, if that be possible.
We know that you have been pleased with our servioe in the past
and it is our purpose to improve that service. Awaiting your
commands and thanking you for past favors, vie remain
Yours very truly,
J. M. MARTINEZ CO.

BURGLARS BURGLED WHILE
WATCHMEN LOOKED ON
Valdosta, Ga.. Jan, 30.—Intense ex
citement was created at take Park,
fourteen miles south of here, by the raid
of a gang of burglars on Friday night.
There were four men In the gang, and
It Is said that they have been operating
In almost every town along the Georgia
Southern and Florida railroad south of
this city.
An Intimation of the expected visit by
the burglars reached Lake Park Friday
morning and a party of young men In
the town volunteered to act as watch
men during the night and see that the
burglars didn’t burgle there. The
watchmen took their stand near a pile
ef on, as-ties on the roadside and hadn't
tong to wait before the four cracksmen
earn* up the railroad track. One of
them had a double-barrel shotgun on
his ehoulder and with the cocked
weapon went on top of the pile of
vross-tles which-sheltered the watch
men. while the other three men pro-
eesded to break In a nearby store. The
guardians of the town lay helpless In
the shadow of the pile of cross-ties
while the burglar with the cocked gun
stood over them. After robbing the

store of Samuel Crews of a quantity of
goods, the robbers whistled to their
companion on the cross-tie pile and the
party started off up the railroad track
In the direction of Valdosta. The
guardians made a dash after the rob
bers as soon as the man with the gun
left his post and a regular fusillade was
tired at them, but without result.
Have you a seas throat? If so, you
can not be too careful. You can not
begin treatment too early. Each cold
makes you more liable to another and
the last Is always the harder to cure.
If you will take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy at the outset you will be saved
much trouble. Sold by all dealers.

John E. McClelland has announced
for council from the Second ward for
the unexplred term of Dr. Monroe
Smith. Mr. McClelland says there Is
no need to raise the tax rate, for the
city's revenue can bo greatly Increased
by unearthing the personal property
that Is now escaping taxation.
A number of other well-known Sec
ond ward cltlxena have been spoken of
as possible candidates for the place In
council, but Mr. McClelland la the first
to formally announce.
The report of the ipeelal committee
on the abolishment of ward physicians,
recommending that three physicians be
employed In their places, to be selected
by competitive examinations given by
the board of health, will have an
amendment attached to It when It
cornea to council, providing that coun

Councilman J. C. Harrison says he will

Dr. Claude A. Smith, city bacteriolo
gist, has Just made his annual report.
It shows how tho very threatening
diphtheria epidemic In Atlanta last fall
was quickly stamped out and that the
quality of milk sold In the city has
been much Improved by the vllllance of
the health department.
Chief of Construction R. M. Clayton
and the legal department have had a
great deal of trouble getting the rights
of way to tho sewage disposal plants
that are being built. It haa Just been
decided that all property for which a
satisfactory agreement has not been
reached for tho right of way for tho
Peachtree creek Intercepting sewer qrlll
be condemned. The Proctor creek right
of way haa already been aecured. The
Entrenchment creek right of way Is still
unprovided for. The construction of
the three plants will consume a good
part of tho bond money.
The regular meeting of the Second
and Third Ward Improvement club will
be held In the basement of the court
house Monday night at 2 o’clock.
The new fire engine house. No. 12, In

Washington, J an. 30.—The followlni
statement from William Randolpl.
Heur.-t was printed In The Washington
Post today:
"San Francisco will gel tho fair, and
It will gel It because of tho justice
her claims for this particular exposll
nt this particular time.
"I can see no sectionalism in the
contest for the fair: no politics In tho
contest. Of roiitve, tttc states 'In the
Immediate neighborhood of Louisians
are In favor of holding the fair at New
Oilcans for the simple reason of con
venience. In the same wav tho states
In the neighborhood of California are In
favor of holding the fair In San Fran
cisco.
"But this content will not be decided
either by the s*ates In the Immedlato
neighborhood of Louisiana or by the
states In tho Immediate neighborhood of
fnllfnrnla. It will be regarded by
states who nro sufficiently far from
both San Francisco and Now Orleans
and stifliclently removed from mere lo
cal preference to be able to decide the
it ue«t ion on tHe broad basis of national
advantage and general propriety and
approxlmnteness. This Is as It should
be.
"There Is nothing to bo criticised
In the natural predilection of any group
of states for a locality In their neli'
borhood, but such geographical prefi
ences should not decide such an Im
portant natlonnl question.
"Tho claims of San Francisco for the
fair are many and convincing. They
are both sentimental and material, both

HIGHEST BRIDGE IS
MADE STILL HIGHER
High Bridge, Ky., Jan. 30.—The work
of replacing the famous Queen and
Crescent bridge over the gorge of tho
Kentucky river, for years the highest
railroad bridge In the world, with n
structure SI feet higher, the new bridge
being built on the same foundations ns
the old nnd without Interfering with
traffic. Is Just being completed.
In addition to being. a remarkable
feat of engineering, this work will prove
of practical Importance to business
communities throughout the South, as
the construction of the new bridge will
provide greatly Improved facilities for
the line over which Is handled the great
freight and passenger traffic between
the West and points on the Southern
railway, the Alabama Great Southern
railroad and connections In the .South
that pass thru the Cincinnati gate
way. The Increased height of the new
bridge will give a much better grade at
this point, while Its gnat strength will
allow the use of much heavier locomo
tives than have been run over the old.
The new bridge Is also designed to
carry double tracki.
The new bridge, like the old, was
erected on the centllever principle and
Is of steel throughout on stone piers.
It Is 1,220 feet long and the track level
Is SOS feet above low water mark.
About 0,200 tons of steel has been put
In place, leaving approximately 142
tons yet to be placed, the greater part
of which can not be put In Its perma
nent position until after the removal of
the old bridge.
