In the many articles written about Brunswick and its manifold attrac tions, “its wonderful harbor, its health-giving waters, bountifully sup, plied by natnre, its flowery parks and its parks that are not floiyery, its magnificent moss laden oaks, balmy pines and fragrant magnolias, its per fect climate at all seasons, its elegant hotel accommodations, second to none in thq South, its fine residences)* massive brick buildings, commodious street cars, and unarivalled boule vards; onevery important institution has been overlooked." In a city numbering ten thousand inhabitants and hoasting of improve ments and progress in every direc tion; is it not remarkable that after four years hard struggle for existence, our Brunswick Public Library num bers less than one hundred members, and they have succeeded in placing on thp .shelves about two thousand volumes of the best authors. The citizens of Brunswick are ur-.'H to make this a successful and permanent institution, by increasing the membership and aiding and en couraging every etf6rt made, in its behalf, and to that end don’t forget the entertainment at the Hall to-mor row night. , f ' We only sell the best pocket knife.

The Fifth Semi-Annual Convention, 6t the Sunday School workers, of the 87th District of Georgia State Son, day School Association, comprised of the counties of Ware, Pierce, Cof fee, Charlton and'Berrien, was held at Alapaha Georgia on last Saturday and Sunday. A large and enthusias tic gathering of delegates was in at tendance, to review the Sunday School work in the District for the past six months and map out plans for the fu ture, and to learn more of the Sun day School work in all its various and important phases. During the Convention addresses were delivered by Rev. W.. H. Scuggs, ofWaycross; Rev. H. P. Myers, of Fort Valley; Rev. J. R. Foster, of Boston, Sunday School Missionary; Prof. S. P. Set tles, of Waresboro and C. I. Stacy, of Brunswick. In this connection, we would say that our people in this section do not seem to appreciate the value of united efforts in the way of Sunday School Associations, Conventions, etc., by which an interchange of ideas is had, and an enthusiasm created, which can be brought about in no other way. We have here a County 'Bun- day School Association, but it seems to he dormant or dead. Can’t it be revived? . Our Trip to the Mountains. As a member of the Georgia Press Association, the writer took an ex tended trip the past week from Ma rietta, Ga. to Murphy, N. C., over the Marietta and North Georgin Rail road. A description of which we propose giving our readers in two ar- treles, the first of which-will appear to morrow. Onr trip really covered a distance of 420 miles hnd reached from the sea to the tops of the great mountains. In that vast expanse of territory we naturally saw much that was interesting and instructing. Syrup of Figs Natures own true laxative. It is tlfe most easily taken, and the most effective remedy known to cleanse the system when billious or costive; to dispel headaches, colds and fevers; |o cure habitual constipation, indi gestion, piles, etc. Manufactured on ly by tbo California Fig Syrup Com pany, San Frdnclsco, Cal.

His thome had been announced, rad the city of* flciala invited,to be pi sent in a body; hence a very large < jdcourse, many attendants of other cl arches avsiling themselves of the pie jure of hearing bis discourse. -)I * . He chose for his text the words, “Except the Lord 1 Hid the house, they labor in vain tl it build it; ex cept. the Lord keej * the city, the wathman waketh but in vain,’’ open ing with tb'e declaratii n that some one had said that cltieB ' *ere the “con gestion of poputatio ”—in short, a disease—everything-i fishing to some given point. This % aying he dis proved, showing that over since the world began, even as far backus the days of thenephew <i Adam, people built cities that we: i the deposito ries of wealth, knowledge, literature, etc,, and were really j scessary to the growth of every conn! y.

The boys carry with them the good wishes of the whole city, who will watch for their return with as much, interest as a maiden for her lover, for be it^ remembered Protection Hose Reel Company fills a big place in the hearts of our people. It has been suggested that Mayor Dunn invite the fire companies to Brunswick for a contest, either in town or on the beaeh and that an el egant prize be offered to the Buecess- company. If yon want your prescriptions compounded carefully and correctly and for a very reasonable price call on Lloyd A Adams. to a part of Chicago, where there lived 50,000 people, comparatively withoiit the preaching of the gospel the population having grown faster than the moral and religious advance ment. Seaport cities were especially in peril on this point, for they were not only cosmopolitan in growth and ideas, but in sin as well, and that this was especially true of Brunswick. The next peril, he said, was in. temperance—170 votes to a saloon was about the rule in all sections North and West, but it remained for Brunswick to out step them all—hav ing only 64 votes to every saloon This was based on a population of 8,000 people and an estimate of one voter to every five citizens. Another peril was the fact that the evangelical churches were losing their hold upon the people, for Sun day excursions and amusements lead the people away, and that as proof of this fact, if everybody should at tend church there would not bo seat ing capacity for them. Another peril was the seculariza tion of the Sabbath as shown by the many things done upon that day in the shape of work that are not in harmoDy with that command that went fourth years ago from the great law giver: “Remember the Sabb&th day to keep it holy, etc.”, Still another peril was the great tevdency, especially of the sea coast, to social gaieties. Bnt he was not discouraged. He read God in everything—the passing breeze, the rising sun, tho evening cloud. Grand opportunities, bo said, would open up. The mosses were ac- ccssable. People were coming in and now that we are laying the founda tion let us sec to it that wc lay a proper foundation.

The'conventions have for a long time been held in Sa vannah and usually late in July, and this year the convention will be held about sLx weeks earlier than usual, The change is made, through Mr. Norwood’s influence, in order that he may complete his canvas and return to Washington before Congress ad journs. About half the counties in the district have chosen delegates, and the delegations are 'about equal ly divided between Capt. W. W. Gor don and Mr. Norwood. The strength of tbe latter lies in 'the country and the probability that he will, in case of anything like a deadlock parry the counties west of the Altamaho, puts him in the lead in v ,he race. ESTABLISHED 1875. The Prohibition Programme. The Prohibitionists have decided to make prohibition a political issue in this State, and next fall they wilt nominate candidates for the Legisla ture in each county. Their purpose, as declared at the meeting of their association in Atlanta, on Tuesday, is to enact a prohibitory law against the manufacture and sale of intoxica ting liquors, In Texas and Tennes see Inst year the prohibitionists of those States submitted to the people a constitutional amendment, which provided for the suppression of the liquor traffic, bnt tho Prohibitionists of Georgia are determined to see if they cannot accomplish their object by means' of a statue. In view of the fact that more than two-thirds of the counties have adopted,prohibition,- it must be admitted that they have a very good chance for carrying out - their programme. If they nominate good men w^io are Democrats, .and if they are united, they will, in all prob ability, control the next Legislature.

Lloyd A Adams. Georgia’s Interests Slighted. Macon Telegraph. Out of nearly twenty million dol lars appropriated by the river and harbor bill, Georgia gets only $305,- 650. We life confident that our rep resentatives did the best they could to secure a fair share of the appropri ations for Georgia, hut the figures show that they did not succeed. It is Georgia’s misfortune that she haS- no member of the river and .harbor committee. States which have di rect representation in that committee get the lion’s share of the money de voted to the river apd harbor im-, provement. Our Senators will en deavor to have the Georgia items in creased, but it is doubtful <f they can add much to them. Tbe bill is al ready so large that its. friends are afraid it will bo vetoed.- It undoubt edly has many objectionable features, and wastes money in Borne places while it leaves others without proper appropriations. The bill is not past all danger yet. Being More Pleasant To the taste, more acceptable to tbe stomach, and more- truly heneflcial in its action, the famous California liquid fruit remedy, Syrup of Figs, is rapidly superseding ail others.
