An Excellent Combination.
The; pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the valueof obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to he
medicinally laxative ami presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
»s the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, ami its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qnalitiesof the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fio Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the full name of the Company

By Negro Boy and Chamber Maid—Coroner's
Jury Found Verdict of Death From Natural
Cauaes—Unable to Determine Exact Cat e tf
Death—Buried Yesterday.
Yesterday morning Mr. R. M. H.ggius
was fonnd dead iu a n«>in in the Com
mercial hotel, where he had been over
since Thursday night.
Air Higgins had been drinking h‘ avi
ly some lime before his death. Thors
day evening lie left his office, saying
that he was going to Monticello. That
night about ten o’clock he went to the
hotel, registered, called f< r a room, for
which ho paid in advance, and was car
ried to one by the bell boy.
Friday morning the chamber maid
knocked at the door, bat received no re
sponse. She returned in the evening,
but was agaiu uuable to get auy response.
The matter was not reported at the of
fice nntil yesterday morning, when still
receiving no response to her repeated
knocking, she got a negro boy, Emory
Fincher, employed at the hotel, to look
over the transom, when he found that
Mr. Higgins was dead.
Mr. Sparr was at once informed and
he made the boy climb over the transom
and unlock tho door from the inside.
The proper authorities were informed
aud Coroner Rogers empanelled a jury
and held an inquest over tfie dead body.
It was reported on the Btreets that
Mr. Higgins had committed suicide, but
the doctors conld find no indications of
this being true. The death had proba
bly occurred Thursday night, and when
the body was found it was in such acou
dition that it could hardly be identified.
The exact cause of his death could not
be determined.
The coroner's jury returned as a ver-
that_the death was a natural death, j
or" some other sudden death; that no
probably died early Thursday night
some time after 10 o’clock ; that there
were no sigus of auy wounds upon the
body, or any signs of suicide, but that
the deatli seemed to be from natural
causes.
The remains were taken in charge by
Dorsey & Funkenstein and bnried by
them in Oconee cemetery yesterday
afternoon, the condition of the body
being sncli that a hasty burial was no
cessary.
Mr. HiggiiiB had been practicing law
in Athens about eight or ten years, hav
ing oome here from Watkinsville. He
is survived by a wife who at the time of
his death was in Watkinsville.
The reason that Mr. Higgins’ death
was not discovered before it was, is due
t) the fact that the regular chamber
maid employed at the hotel is absent
and her place is beiug filled by a green
one. The maid should have reported
the matter to the office when she oould
not obtain eutrauce Friday evening
Mr. Wyatt, the hotel proprietor, said
that it is a common thing for tho inmate
a room, desiring more sleep, not to
answer when his door is knocked upon
but that it is always the duty of the one
cleaning up the rooms to report the fact
when they are unable to get in in the
evening.
We have every style that fashion has smi!e<l upon.
