Senatorial Extravagance.
There are ninety senators. They
have 353 employes to wait upon them
at a oost of about $482, OOlta year. That
is to say each senator, besides his sal
ary of $5,000 a year, must have attend
ance costing $5,355 a year.
There are 121 clerks to committees,
etc., in a body numbering only ninety
persons. There ore fifty-two laborers,
though nobody can imagine what labor
they perform. There are fifteen po
licemen, though the senate end of the
capitol is fully guarded by the capitol
police.
Senator Chandler has rendered a
public service by calling attention to
this monstrous extravagance. It is an
abuse of large proportions, and it is
made worse by the fact that most of
the money is paid to persons near to
the senators themselves for purely
nominal services. In other words,the
senators are quartering their families
and dependents upon the country at
an anneal expense of nearly half a
million dollars to the taxpayers. The
exposure ought to compel a reform.-

Veteran Editor Dead.
Rev. Samuel Pope Callaway, the tal
ented and veteran editor of the La-
Grange Reporter, is dead.
His death has cast a gloom over the
entire community where ho has labored
so long and faithfully for the upbuild
ing of LaGrange through his paper,
of which he has been editor, and pro
prietor for 16 years.
Before Mr. Callaway’s entry into
journalism he had charge of some of
the most important of the Baptist
churches of Georgia but on account
of deafness ho was forced to retire
from' the ministry and has been in
the newspaper business ever since.
He conducted a paper at West
Point for a while and then 16 years
ago he took charge of the Reporter,
which lie has edited since that time.
He was one of the most brilliant and
chaste writers in the entire state and
there were few equals of liis upon the
Georgia press.
Garrard Not a Candidate.
When asked if he would boa
candidate for the United States senate,
Honorable L. F. Garrard stated that
he would answer by Showing the con

making the same query. The letter
is as follows:
I received your kind letter saying you had
seen frequent mention of my name recently in
connection with the senatorial race but had
seen no authorized statement as yet from my
self. I feel very much indebted to yourself as
well as other friends for kind expressions of
opiuion, I have given the matter very little
thought, as my time has has been taken up in
the practice of my profession.
“I have not authorized any one to use my
name in connection with the senatorial race
and I am not in any sense a candidate.
“Very truly,
“Louis Garrard.”

Default Was Made.
The Atlanta, Knoxville and Northern
Construction Company failed to make
the second payment of the purchase
money for the Marietta and North
Georgia railroad, which was due some
days ago. However, if the company
succeeds in raising the sum of $157,-
500, together with legal interest there
on, between new and April 15th, the
recent sale of the Marietta and North
Georgia raiiroad will stand as if there
had been no default. If, on the other
haud, this amount is not raised in the
time specified, a second sale of the
property will take place within a short
time thereafter, and the Atlanta,
Knoxville and Northern Construction
Company will be held liable for any
shortage arising from the difference
between the two sales and the expense
of advertising. This was decided by
Judge Newman in chambers a few
days ago, and the several lawyers in
terested in the case appeared to be sat
isfied with the result.

State Convention of Railroaders.
A state convention of the members
of the five standard railroad labor or

Sunday, April 19th next. Represent

are expected to be present.
The grand chiefs of the different or
ders will be invited to attend the con
vention and they will either be present
in person or be represented by ono of
the grand officers of the respective or
ders. Two or three of the grand
chiefs have already signified a willing
ness to attend the meeting, which was
first suggested several weeks ago, when
four of the great labor leaders were in
Atlanta.
The state convention will consider
matters of general interest to the rail
road employes of Georgia. It will be
a big union meeting of the members
of the different orders and the railroad
men anticipate that much good will be
done by the holding of the convention.
Several matters of interest to the rail
road organizations are to be acted on
and the state convention will be an
important one.

Governor Made a Good Impression.
A recent special from Port Royal,
S. C., stated that Governor Atkinson,
in his first appearance before a South
Carolina endience, made an impression
that will be lasting. At the banquet
at the Sea Island hotel he spoke after
Governor Evans, who made reference
to an attempt of the Georgia Central
railroad to throttle Port Royal. In a
humorous vein the governor kept the
assemblage engaged iu giving ap
plause. He had not come to talk. He
had come because the people of Geor
gia were afraid the governor of South
Carolina was not doing justice to Port
Royal, and he had brought Governor
Evans with him. He expressed grati
tude for the reception. The Geor
gians had been treated well—treated
often. He had been graciously con
sidered by the matrons —a man with
six children—and smiled on by Beau
fort’s maidens.
Turning to graver snbjeets the gov
ernor denied most earnestly that
Georgia had ever sought, or now de
sired, to throttle the ambitions of this
glorious port. When Georgia had
reached out through South Carolina to
tap the ocean it had not been to throt
tle Port Royal, but to bosom with
works of steel the Palmetto State. He
was as proud of South Carolina as of
Georgia; proud of the history they
had made; proud of their womanhood;
but he urged the people of the state to
remember that there was something
beyond one’s state to remember; that
the state formed a part of a nation,
and that altogether it was the grandest
nation on earth.
He hoped there wold be no more
talk of sectionalism. It was time to
take liberal views of all questions. He
hoped the day would soon be gone
when a man being a southerner would
exclude him from the office of presi
dent. It had been said that South
Carolina was represented in the senate
by one who did not conform to sena
torial courtesy. He would say that
there were other states which should
be reminded that they should not only
send courteous men to represent them,
but men with convictions and the
courage to express them. The speech
was eloquent and at times thrilling
and received universal encomiums.
STATE FAIR IS OFF.
President Waddell Says They Have
Ceased to Attract.
There will be no state fair this year
owing to the failure of the two last
fairs to pay the State Agricultural So
ciety, under whose auspices they were
held.
The last state fair was held in Ma
con, where the majority of them have
been held, in 1894. It was held joint
ly under the auspices of the State Ag
ricultural Society and the Macon Ex
position Company, with Mr. E. A.
Horuo at the head, as per contract
with the city of Macon.
About a dozen years ago the State
Agricultural Society made a contract
with the Macon Exposition Company
under which contract the state fair
was to be held in that city every year
and the Macon Exposition Company
was to manage ihe fair and pay the
State Agricultural Society so much'
money. This contract was made good
for twenty years, but after about ten
fairs had been held in Macon the ag
ricultural society decided that it would
be best to alternate and they accord
ingly asked the Macon Exposition
Company to change the contract so
that the state fair should be held in
Macon only every other year instead
of every year. This change was
agreed to and in 1893 the fair was
held in Augusta. This was next to the
last fair, tho fair in Macon year before
last being the last. Both of the last
fairs failed to pay the society and so
the executive committee has decided
that no fair will be held this year, as
it is inexpedient.
“There are two or three reasons why
the state fair will not be held this
year,” said Mr. J. O. Waddell, presi
dent of the State Agricultural Society
yesterday. “The first of these reasons
is the fair business ha& been overdone,
and the people have become surfeited
with them. The second reason is they
are very costly, much more so than
formerly. This is because the old
time fairs, the best we ever had, fail
to attract the people, and we have to
secure the attendance of lhe people by
new and novel, and I might say use
less, features.
“The failure of the Macon Exposi
tion Company in 1894, and the Augus
ta Exposition Company in 1893, to pay
the society large sums due it makes it
entirely too risky to venture to hold
a fair this year. We could not expect
to pay premiums and the other neces
sary expenses out of the receipts dur
ing such unsettled financial conditions
as now surround us.
“The society is proud of the fact
that we have always paid every pre
mium in full and that it does not owe
a cent at present except to its officers.
We have never scaled a debt.
“The failure to hold a state fair is
not anew thing in tho history of the
society, for while it has been organized
fifty years, it has held but twenty
three fairs daring that time. The
state fairs will be renewed at some
future time, but we must then return
to the old-time manner of conducting
them —making Ihem exhibits of the re
sources of our great state. ”
The debts duo the Agricultural com
pany from the exposition company at
Macon and at Augusta is nearly
$3,000. Of this Augusta owes about
two-thirds.
The contract made with the Macon
Exposieion Company some time ago
put the oontrol of affairs entirely in
that company’s hands. At first tho
fairs were run with success, but after a
few years the receipts dwindled so that
in 1894 the company failed to pay all
due the society. The exposition com
pany had authority in all things and
granted all privileges at Central City
Park, where the fairs were held. It
was the same way in Augusta in ’93.
The State Agricultural Society will
hold its next convention iu Borne, on
the second Wednesday in August. It
will be the semi-centennial and will
doubtless be the biggest yet held by
the society during all of its fifty years.
It will continue in session for three
days.
fait Works Damaged.
A destructive fire broke out iu the
works of the Pennsylvania Salt Man
ufacturing Company, at Natroua, Po.,
Saturday, and for a time threatened
the destruction of the entire plant. A
rough estimate places the loss at sl,-
000,000, proDably covered by insnr

THE KENTUCKY LEGISLATURE
ADJOURNS PEACEABLY*
No Senator Elected—Sound Money
Men are Well Pleased.
The Kentucky legislature adjourned
Tuesday without electing a senator.
The joint session assembled peaceably.
A feeling of better humor prevailed
in the bouse, which was enjoyed by a
number of ladies who were allowed for
the first time since last Friday to enter
the galleries. __
The doors were thrown wide open
as on Monday and the same sight of
blue coated soldiers was witnessed in
the corridors. While the clerks called
the roll of both houses, the democrats
failed to vote and the roll showed 66
present.
The ballot was then ordered for the
last vote in the race for United States
senator. Neither the democrats nor
the republicans voted. On motion of
Hon. Cy Z. Brown, the joint assembly
eternally, forcibly, everlastingly and
perpetually and for all time dissolved
never to meet again.
When the motion was put, the long
meter doxology was sung by the as
sembly in a spirit of humor.
The gavel fell for the last time in
the joint session of the Kentucky gen
eral assembly at 12:17 p. m. and no
successor to Senator Blackburn was
elected.
As soon as the joint assembly had
dissolved many of senator Blackburn’s
friends made a rush for the senate
Cloak room and began to shake hands
with the free silver champion.
“Joe” told a story and wound up by
saying that he had just begunjhis fight.
The Blackburn people held a meet
ing at the opera house during the
evening. A feature of the occasion
was a special from Jack Chinn, which
was loudly applauded. Senator Black
burn’s address had to do with the dif
ferent phases of the strange political
drama just closed He was rather
bitter iu his denunciation of what he
termed “the traitors of the party.”
He scored Governor Bradley in a
bitter and impassioned manner, for
calling out the militia, characterizing
his action as despotic, cowardly and
tyrannical. He also fired some hot
shot at the press, saying, “There has not
been one single line, original, copied,
borrowed or stolen, in the democratic
press of Louisville for the past three
months which was not a lie.”
He then reviewed and reiterated and
defended his views on silver and other
national questions.
INSURGENTS ARE AGGRESSIVE.
More Arms and Ammunition Stimu
late Them.
A special from Havana says: The
government has suffered severe re
verses at Candelaria and Cayajabos in
Pinar del Rio, and its attempts to
check the westward march of Maceo
completaly failed. Colonel Hernan
dez’s column was ambushed by Maceo
on the Galope estate near Candelaria.
Colonel Inclan went to his assistance
and both columns wero badly cut up.
On the following day General Linares
and Colonel Inclan met the enemy on
the La Mercede estate. After an en
counter the insurgent colnmns contin
ued their march toward the north coabt.
Wednesday Colonel Francip, with a
column of 1,200 troops, fought Mnceo
amid the ruins of Cayajabos. Mnceo
used cannon. The details of the en
counter are difficult to obtain. The
government sent out a special ambu
lance train and eight trainioads
of troops for the relief of the col
umns of Francis, Incian and Linares,
which were badly routed. Colonel
Francis was severely wounded. In
formation from a reliable source says
four captains and seven lieutenants are
dead and the total losses of the Span
iards in killed, wounded and missing
are over 200. The rebels are said to
have captured over a thousand rifles.
Weyler Is Dlsheart-ned.
General Weyler is nearly distracted
between the failure of military opera
tions on the one hand and the horrors
being committed od the other. The
report is insisted upon that he will
soon resign or bo recalled. The pres
sure of political parties is giving him
much annoyance. It is admitted on
all sides that Weyler has proved a fail
uio.
John C. Winder Paralyzed.
John C. Winder, for years general
manager and vice president of the Sea
board Air-Line, was strieken with pa
ralysis Wednesday night at his home
in Raleigh, N. O. His condition is

SCARLET FEVER SETTLED IN
THE BACK.
AN OPERATION WAS UNSUCCESSFUL
LY PERFORMED.
The Patient Was Final 1 * Restored, After
Eighteen Years.
From the Evening Neivs, Newark, N.J.
About eighte3n years ago, when Mrs. Annie
Dale, of 88 Bruce street, was a bright, merry
school girl, she was taken ill with sc&riot fever.
She recovered, but she was a very different girl
from a physical standpoint. She was cured of
the scarlet fever, but it left her with an affeo
tion of tho back. As she grew older the pain
seemed to increase. Her sufferings were inten
sified by her household duties, but she never
complained, and with one hand pressed tightly
to her back she dil her work about her cozy
home.
‘‘l was fourteen years old when I was at
tacked with scarlet fever, and have now suffered
with my b tek for eighteen years.
“Night and day I suffered. It really seemed
as if I must succumb to the pain, and then to
make matters worse, my head achei so badly
what I could scarcely see, at times. Finally I
*ent to St. Michael’s Hospital, at the corner of
High street and Central avenue, and there the
surgeons performed a difficult operation on my
back, but it did no good; it was like everything
else, I was told at the hospital to return for
another operation, but the first had left me so
weak I could not go back. Then again I had
become discouraged and my three children
needed my attention and oare at home. The
pain became harder to stand and my back
was almost broken, it "seemed. I thought I
would never know what it would be like to be
well again when I was told to try Dr. Williams’
Piuk Pills. With many doubts, a faint heart
and an aching back I went to get the pills, and
little dreaming that they would prove the
elixor of a uew life to me, I began to take
them. Only a short time elapsed before I be
gan to improve. Could it bo poss ble that Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills were doing what every
thing else had failed to accompli-b? I asked
myself tho question many times and before
long I was enabled by my improved condition
to answer the question with an emphatic ‘Yes.’
Now the pain of almost twenty years is cured
by these Pink Tills in a few months. I have
no pain of any kinl now, but I hsve got gome
of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pa'e People
and w.iile I do not think it will ever be necessa
ry to use them again, I ehall certainly never be
without them in the house.”
Dr- Williams’ Piuk Pills contain, in a con
densed form, all the elements necessary to give
new life and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves- They are also a specific for
troubles peculiar to females, such a3 suppres
sions, irregularities and all forms of weakness.
They build up tbo blood, and restore the glow
of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In men
they effect a radical euro in all cases arising
froni mental worry, oveiwork or excesses of
whatever nature. Pmk P.lls are sold in boxes

Costly Economy.
They eay there is a man who resides
near Maben, in this county, who
prides himself on his economy, and
the other day, when discussing his fa
vorite topic, he remarked that ho had
saved several dollars in matches,
“Why,” said he, “when I came to
Mississippi nearly forty years ago, I
brought my fire with me, and I have
kept the same ever since, never allow
ing it to die out, and during all thjs
time have never spent one cent for
matches.—Starkville Times.

Gladness Comes
With a*better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper ef
forts—gentle efforts —pleasant efforts —
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledgo that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is

effects are due to the fact, that it is the

the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

NATURE’S
WAY:
There is no reason why the period preced
ing childbirth should tie full of discomfort.
There is no reason why childbirth itself
should bring n feeling of dread to the mother.
Nature does nothing wrong. It is the abuse
of nature by wrong livinv, lack of exercise,
ill-fitting clothes, that brings about the tor
tures of childbirth.
Perfectly healthy women go through the
ordeal with comparative ease. Nature in
tended it that way. Women approaching
motherhood have really hut one thing to do
get strength generally and locally.
McELREE’S WINE OF CARDUI
is the best medicine and tonic to do this. It
prepares the generative organs for the coming
trial, shortens labor, lessens pain and robs
confinement of its danger.

DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:
“ I cannot begin to tell you what you#
remedies have done for me. I suffered
for years with falling and neuralgia
of the womb, kidney trouble and
leucorrhoea in its worst form. There
were times that I could not stand, was
sick all over and in despair. I had
not known a real well day for 15 years.
I knew I must do something at once.
I had tried physicians without receiv.
ing any lasting benefit. I began the
use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound.
Now, I have used 9 bot
ties; my weight has
increased 25 lbs. I
tell every • one to
whom and What I owe
f my recovery, and there
are 15 of my friends
taking the Compound
7/j after seeing what
V/5J Y/f/f/fjm it has done for me.
Oh, if I had known
of it sooner, and
saved all these years of misery. I
can recommend it to every woman.”—

Mr. William T. Clime, a grocer
doing business at 1822 Norris St.,
Philadelphia, reoontly made tho
following statement concerning
Itlpans Tabules; ”1 had what tho
dootors called Nervous Indigestion,
from which I suffered day and night.
I tried several doctors, took oleotrlo
treatment, patent medicines, and,
in fact, everything that I oould hear
of, but nothing done me any good
and I made up my mind,there was ,
no help for mo, only to grin and bear
it, but ono day I was passing a drug
store and stopped to look at tho dis
play in tho window and I happenod
to see a oard with ‘Bipans Tabule3’
on it and I thought, well, hero’s
another straw for a drowning man,
so I’ll throw some more money's way,
so I went in nnd bought a box, nnd,
soemsto mo, tho first doso took
effect. I hnvo boen taking them ever
since and they have surely worked
wonders with mo. When I look back
on tho past and then on my present
condition, sooms to mo I am anew
man. lam enjoying ologant health
now, nnd I feel that I owo many
thanks to Bipans Tabules. I have
recommended them to several of my
friends who say they are wonderful,
and I must say they are a God send
to auy ono suffering from a disorder
of this nature."
