f ATLANTA ULUROiAjV. IMPORT ‘CAPTURED RY CUBAN REBELS: INE Government Thinks Revo 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 few developments. The government pro fesses to believe that Guerra is now the only Insurgent chief In the field who Is dangerous. I am Informed that It Is the purpose of the government to wait for a few days until the efTect 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 1 revolutionary leaders has revealed, It Is said, that the rebels pur pose to remain quiet until all the avail able forces have been sent against Guerra. Then, It is asserted, Guzman who commands In Santa Clara, and General Asbert. with hls forces In Havana province, will move up and the government forces will be bottled up between them. The town of Cabanas, near the Uni ted States naval station, wns seized 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 In Plnar del Rio. The Importance of the capture of Cabanas Is that It Is a port and while TWELVE NEW COPS ADDED _T0 ROSTER 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, Woodstde, and Brandon. Mayor Woodward and Commissioners Venable and Nunnally were the absentees. Chief Jennings submitted a recom mendation that at least forty addition al men be employed on account of the recent reign 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 board. 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 bers. and ammunition, the rebels hold it they may land arms Deserting Guerra. It Is stated today 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.

Mr. Dimmock married Mrs. Fanny A. Kerby, of this city, during the year 1887.

On August 4 of this year he successfully stood the examination and was commissioned a second lieutenant In the Horse Guard.

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: The general impression throughout the state upon the best class of people, the conservative and 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 renders in full page display, carrying n stamp of approval by virtue of the quality or reputa tion of the journal containing the advertisement; also that no whisky advertisements appear in The Georgian. And thnt The Georgian has adopted or rnthor began on a policy advocated by so many of the leading magazines, to let nothing appear within its columns but reliable and honest ad vertisements exploiting square deals only. An advertisement in The Georgian 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 arc ever seeking n better and more trustwor thy medium. K* ®' Acworth, Ga. HEARSAY: "REIGN OF TERROR” EDITORIAL SOUGHT BY CAROLINA CITIZENS. Special to The Georgian. Salisbury, X. 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 fur in excess of the supply. It was discussed in connection with local conditions. "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 Sonth, Bnd 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 ns n whole presents to the reader a well-balanced report of all the news of the day.. , I hope thht your paper will always be as clean, newsy and re liable ns it is now, and thnt your circulation will increase ns much . as the paper merits. I would like to see The Georgian have n paid subscription of 50,000 at the end of two years. With sincere wishes for the success of The Georgian, I am Respectfully, O. W. PAS8AVAXT.
