iHE ATLANTA UJiOiuyJLAjN. > . X%, PORI CAPTURED BY CUBAN REBELS: INE Government Thinks devo lution Is on Last Legs. By MANUEL CALVO. Special Cable—Copyright. Havana, Cuba, Aug. 29.—Both rebel and government forces seem to making time, and beyond raids by small parties of rebels there are fen- developments. The government pro fesses to believe that Guerra Is now the only Insurgent chief In the held who Is dangerous. 1 am Informed that It Is the purpose of the government to wait for a fen- days until the effect of the amnesty . proclamation may be fully felt, and then undertake a general forward movement for the purpose of await ing Guerra, and thus ending the revo lution.- One of the revolutionary leaders has revealed, It Is said, that the rebels pur pose to remain-quiet until all the avail able forces have been sent ngalnst Guerra. Then. It Is asserted,-Gusman, who commands In Santa Clara, and General Asbert. wKh his forces In Havana province, will move up and the government forces will be bottled up between them. The town of Cabanns, near the Uni ted States naval station, was seised yesterday by a band of 200 rebels un der Campos Marquettl. the negro con gressman. Two other towns were raid ed by rebels. They were Crucos In Santa Clara and Consolaclon ,ln Plnar del Rio. The Importance of the capture of Cabanas Is that It Is a port and while TWELVE NEW COPS J Trial of Patrolmen Jones Postponed Until Thursday. Twelve men were added to the police department at a meeting of the police board Tuesday night. The trial of Pa trolman George c. Jones was deferred until Tuesday night. * But five members of the board were present. Chairman Terry and Commis sinners English. Oldknow, Woodslde, and ‘ Brandon. Mayor Woodward and Commissioners Venable and Nunnall were the absentees. Chief Jennings submitted a recom mendation that at least forty addition* ai men be employed on account of the recent n?Ign of lawlessness In the county and the fact that the strength ening of the county police force would drive the negroes into the city limits. He called attention also to the fact that not enough men . were, on duty at the station house to respond to a riot call. The board ordered the chief to ap point twelve additional men, the ap pointments to be subject to the approv al of the boards Two former police men. C. E. Fogg, and C. E. Doyal, were named by the two commissioners and will be appointed. Chief Jennings has not appointed the remaining ten mem ber?. y i <. i and ammunition. the rebels hold it they may land arms Deserting Guerra. It Is stated tqday that there have been many desertions from the forces of Guerra In Plnar Del Rio. Lack of food and the hopelessness of the rebel lion is given as the cause. The de fenses of the city of Plnar Del Rio are now said to be Impregnable to‘ any force Guerra can possibly bring against them. RECEIVER'S SALE NOW GOING ON.

Sketch of Hit Life. W. R. Dlmmock Waa born In the little village of Hayeatown, England, Auguat 11, 1852. When two yeara old he waa brought to America, the family flrat coming to Atlanta, then aettllng Conyera. Aa a boy, he attended achoot In Conyers, coming to Atlanta when 15 years old and entering the Wlnahlp machine shops, where he worked for a number of yeara. His education was completed at night school. After giving up his work as a me chanic, Mr. Dlmmock became a fruit and vegetable commission merchant. He was the senior member of the Dlmmock A Wallace Commission House, at No. 1 South Broad street, for many years. He first entered politics In the early 90’s, when he was elected to the city council. Later he was elected an al derman and served as mayor pro tern. Seven years ago Mr. Dlpimock was made secretary of the water board and has sines given up his time to that work. Mr. Dlmmock married Mrs. Fanny A. Kerby, of this city, during, the year 1887. Throughout his life Mr. Dlmmock had been a worker In the Methodist church and for the last 25 or more years well known In fraternity circles. At -the time of his death he was a steward In the Grace Methodist church, of which he has been a member for man) years. Aside from being one of the oldest members of Gate City Lodge No. 2, Free and Accepted Order of Masons, Mr. Dlmmock • was a charter member ol Klbla Temple. Dramatic’ Order of Kntghta of Khnrassan. and one of Its most enthusiastic members. A delega tion from this chapter will be In at tendance at the funeral. Military Record. Mr. Dlmmock was, In point of ser vice, one of the oldest members of the state militia. He Joined the militia In 1873. His first service was In the Gov ernor's Guard Infantry. When this or ganisation was disbanded he became a member of the Governors' Horse Guard, Troop 1, Flrat regiment cavalry, N. G. of Georgia. Three months ago he was presented by the state with a medal for the length and fdlthfulness of his services. On August 4 of this year he successfully stood the examination and was commissioned a second lieutenant In the Horse Guard. Although the strain of studying for thess’examlna- tlons Is claimed by some to have brought on the fatal malady, It Is also believed that a stroke of apoplexy he sustained two years ago had much to do with the death. Because of Mr. Dlmmock's long ser vice to the. city of Atlanta, Mayor Pro Tern. Harwell has Issued orders that the city hall be cloned at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon.

Williams died of heart disease brought on by excessive joy. due to the fact that she was about to come into the possession of $1,000,000. was the finding today at a coroner's Investi gation Into her death.

The physicians anticipate no severe consequence from the operation, and believe the patient will be out in a very short time. DO ADVERTISERS STOP TO THINK —that in addition to quantity of circulation, esteem and confidence cut some ice—QUALITY is a big item, but The Georgian seems to have it going and coming—good people read The Georgian, and they call The Georgian GOOD. THE BEST SOUTHERN PAPER. •: ; > To the Editor of The Georgian: > i The general impression throughout the state upon the best class of people, the conservative nnd substantial citizens, is that The Georgian is the best paper published in the South. It has been generally understood that it is a clean paper; that no fake patent medicine advertisements: no thriving “get- rich” schemes will be held before its readers in full page display, carrying a stamp of approval by virtue of the quality or reputa tion of the journal containing the advertisement; also that no whiskv advertisements sppeur in The Georgian. And that The Georgian has adopted or rather began on n policy advocated by so many of the leading magazines, to let nothing appear within its columns hut reliable and honest ad vertisements exploiting square deals only. An advertisement in The Gsorgian carries a stamp of merit, which increases its value to the advertiser, and no paper can lose in the long run by such a fair dealing policy. Reliable advertisers are rapidly learning that it is detrimen tal to their advertisement to appear on the same page or in the same paper with fakes and notorious skin game notices. They are withdrawing their patronage and look suspiciously upon such papers, and are ever seeking a better and more trustwor thy medium. *''• K. S. Acwortb, Ga. HEARSAY: "REIGN OF TERROR” EDITORIAL SOUGHT BY CAROLINA CITIZENS. Special to The Georgian. Salisbury, N. C., Aug. 28—The Georgian’s great editorial leader of Thursday has been generally read here and much dis cussed. The Evening Post reproduced it Saturday, with indorse ment of its sentiment. When it became known that the paper had spoken through its editor upon the “Reign of Terror” there was a demand for far in excess of the supply. It was discussed in connection with local conditions. Jl INK “BEST PAPER IN THE SOUTH.” To the Editor of The Georgian: Although I am a total stranger to you, I write this as a young man and a citizen of Georgia to express my appreciation of your newspaper, The Georgian. In my humble opinion, the editorial page of The Georgian is the best in the South, nnd for genuine merit? not surpassed by any such section of any paper in the whole country. All the rest of the paper is conducted on an equally high standard, and the pa per as a whole presents to the reader a well-balnnced report of , all the. news of the day. I hope that vonr paper will always be as clean, newsy and re- liable ns it is now, and that your circulation will increase as much as the paper merits, I would like to see The Georgian Imvc a aid subscription of 30,000 at the end of two years. With sincere wishes for the success of The Georgian. 1 am espectfully, O. W. PASS AY ANT. Xewnan, Git., Aug. 22,190G. ADVERTISERS CORDIALLY INVITED TO INVESTIGATE OUR CIRCULATION.
