'The Star Spangled Banner.* Every patriotic American will want to come and stand upon the his toric ground where the blood of Am erican patriots was offered upon the shrine of liberty for the preservation of American Independence; you will want to see the old North Point battlefield and Fort McHenry, cherished as holy ground in the hearts of all true Americans; you will want to see the place on the old North Point road where 1,700 raw vol unteers. under General Strieker, met and checked the advance of 9.000 picked vet erans of the season© * troops of brigand; the place where two boys. Daniel Wells and Henry C. McComas. climbed a tree and. from that point of vantage at the sacrifice of their own lives, shot the British commander. General Ross, you will be glad of the opportunity to visit their graves and see the monument that has been erected in their honor, and. voursetf. P*y the tribute of a tear to their heroism.

What so proudly we halted at the twi light's Ins gleaming Whose broad stripe sand bright start, through the perilous fight. O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?* It’s good flour, such as Golden Harvest Flour.

You will take time to visit the modest house, 60 Albemarle street, still standing, where Mrs. Mary Pickersgill made the flag that floated over Fort McHenry during the bombard ment.

DIVIDEND FOD DEPOSITORS OF THE CITIZENS Not a New Dividend, But Re ceiver Crane to Pay Re mainder of 20 Per Cent. Dividend Declared Last July Amounting to $2,564.53. Hopes For a Second Sub stantial Dividend. Jud(fp Henry C. Hammond haH »lKn ed an order directing Mr. Bryson Crane, receiver of the Citizens Trust Company, to pay the remaining por tion of the dividend of 20 per cent, which was declared last July, to those* depositors who did not receive their 20 per cent at that time. There ar* a large number of depositors, the ma jority of whose deposits, however, were small, who wer not paid last year and the amount to be distributed is $2,- rm r,2 ..U Crane wishes it to be distinctly understood that this is no new divi dend, but merely the payment df the remainder of the 20 per cent dividend declared when J. P. Armstrong was receiver o fthe Citizens. Hlnce Mr. Crune’s appointment last December he has collected $7,597.83. He says that there are still some collectable assets from which he ex pects to real' a considerable addl- i tional dividend. Also the surety com pany which was on the bond of J. P. Armstrong is expected to be forced to pay more than *16,000 which Arm strong ha i collected and which should have been“,n hand when the new re ceiver was named. If this money is collected and the 1 remaining assets realised on in a sat isfactory manner, there will be a sec ond dividend of considerable amount to be paid. j THE AUGUSTA HERALD.

O. Fort, For Many Years Connect ed With the State Board of Health—Also Four Other Com missioned Officers and 31 Men Are on Duty. It would be difficult to find a more complete hospital equipment than that provided at the local maneuver camp. The service is divided Into two sections, the regimental dispensaries and the field hospital. In the event of a trooper or an infantryman becoming ill or being the victim of an accident reports to his dispensary where the I where the officials In charge, compe -1 tent medical mien, make a thorough examination and decide what disposi tion to make of the case. Method of Procedure. | If—and it has been whispered that such a thing occurs every decade or so —some guardsman is afflicted with 'trouble In the morning on account of 'too ardent gazing at the sights the 1 night before and therefore prays to be relieved from the necessity of en during the glare of the morning sun, he is kindly but firmly ordered to re port 'hack to his tent and be prepared to answer to his name when the first sergeant calls the roll. On the other hand, if medical attention Is really needed, the patient is sent to the field hospital. In accidents of such nature j that there is no doubt attention Is j needed, the Injured one is taken di rectly to the field hospital. Prominent Mediosl Men in Charge. Field Hospital No. I.

Hither to the Guardsmen have been without adequate hospital facilities during the encampment, hence the organization of this department Is filling a long felt need. Equipment Unexcelled. Despite the fact that the department is comparatively new, it is equipped with every modern convenience pos sible to a modern hospital. There are accommodations for one hundred and eight patients and It Is beyond the bounds of probability that the service will be taxed to Its full capacity. The officers are highly educated men who are thoroughly trained In the art of rendering proper care to the ill and In jured. The Strongest Feature of All. An especially strong feature In con nection with the establishment of this hospital corps Is that. It Is subject to the orders of the authoritltles Just as Guards. To show how this would work for the publieweal, let us sup pose that we didn't have a levee to protect us and that some day the Ha vannah would sweep down us, render ing thousands homeless and bringing about conditions of the most unsani tary nature The catastrophe would be so overwhelming that the local health authorities could not properly handle It. In such case they would call on the governor to order the hos pital corps here, which would mean that the situation could he much more quickly relieved. The same would apply in the case of a great fire, as the recent Halem fire, or any other great calamity which would call for outside aid of this nature. The headquarters of this organiza tion are In Atlanta. It Is kept In such condition that a call cen he responded to Immediately upon the issuance of the order Good Health of Camp, Except for one or two minor injur ies, the hospital has had only two cases so far and In both cases the men were only slightly Indisposed. Con sidering the large number of men In camp this Is a most remarkable re cord and Is taken to indicate that the authorities chose a most healthful lo cation when they selected Aumond for the encampment site.
