Jackson, asking for Information concerning th streets llgths. The letter Is self ex planatory and is In full as follows: Augusta, Ga„ Sept. 28, 08-10 A. M. Mr. Jas. U. Jackson, Vlce-Pres. Augusta Ry. ft Elec. Co., Augusta, Oa. Dear Sir: It has now been more than a month since the high water, and the com Waiting on Water in Canal Replies Prest. J. U. Jackson In reply to the communication of Mayor Dunbar, Mr. Jackson sent the following letter: Augusta, Ga., Sept. 28, 1908. 11:40 a. m. Hon. W. M. Dunbar, Mayor, City of August, Augusta, Ga. Dear Sir: Yours of even date received at 11 a. m. this morning In reply I beg to say that our company, perhaps, has been, next to the city of Augusta, the greatest sufferer locally as a result of the high water. The break in the canal banks which has prevented the city of Augusta since the high water In complying with their contract, with us to furnish water to run our ma chinery Is, primarily, the cause of our delay In furnishing lights on the streets of the city. We have an aux iliary steam plant which, under or dinary circumstances, we could use for operating most of the machinery in our plant. On Monday morning, August 24th, prior to the high water of Wednesday and Thursday, we had taken down two of our old boilers and simply sprang into existence. Miss Flynn, the presiding genius of the place whose taste Is unimpeachable, has made the happiest selections im aginable. and to look and to see it to admire and to covet. The hats are by no means as exaggerated as we had been led to fear, and the woman who loves small hats will find as much to please her as will the woman who affects the Isrge and plcturesqe style. All colors are favored, and tho trim mings may be of gigantic flowers, trailing plumes, soft ribbons, price less aigrettes or all of these things combined Some of the big black hats are perfectly stunning and the hats for Mourning In both small dkupcs and large are sufficiently varliT In aha|>e and de*ign to be becoing to every known typa of woman Rather a | speciality has been made of these ; mourning hats, and they are the most ! pleasing creation* of thl* class ever , shown In Augusta fn th* more elaborate creations are matchless color combinations that ' daaile the eye and delight the artl*- i tie soul. One large velvet model iu I the new Cunard blue Is trimmed In sa owl and peacock tone* with such i wings and other appurtances as w< e never found on an owl known to ns* ural history A wonderfully beauti ful masterpiece Is of riotb-of gold with the softest draperies of brown velvet surmounted by a genuine Far ad!** plume.

The city of Augusta cer alnly feels that every effort should be ruade to have the streets properly ligthed, and I must ask that you let me know, at your early convenience, what the conditions are that prevent your carrying out the contract for lighting our streets. Yours very truly, W. M. Dunbar, Mayor & A. i three small machines and had com menced putting in new machinery to largely increase our steam power, and while our plant was dismantled In this condition high water came on us. In addition to this, part of the ma chinery operated by steam in our west plant was completely under wa ter and it has taken considerable time to put the machines back in commis sion. You understand that a large part of our machinery, which is oper ated by water power, has been en : tirely out of commission as a result of the breaks in the canal banks, and I as soon as they are repaired and we i can get water power, there will be no trouble with our furnishing all necessary lights. Even with the ma : chlnery which we have been operating by steam we have been seriously handicapped because of our inability to get. sufficient water even to supply : our boilers. I beg to assure you that we have heard the complaintß from citizens about our delay in furnishing lights just as you, perhaps, have heard’eom plaints concerning the furnishing of water for domestic and other pur poses. We are doing all in our pow ! er, having worked night and day, to get our plant In full operation. We are sparing no expense in endeavor ing to accommodate, and believe you will appreciate our position and be lenient with us under the circum stances. Your* very truly, JAMES IT.

Our citizens are telling the good news of their experience with the Old Quaker Remedy. Here Is an example worth reading: T. E. May, living at 918 Center street, Augusta, Ga., says: "I can speak very highly of Doan's Kidney Pills as they have given me entire satisfaction. My back ached and pained me right across my kidney regions for some time, and I could not get my proper rest at night on account of the pain. My kidneys were ilugglah, did not act regularly, and the secretions were highly colored and contained a dark sediment. 1 used plasters and liniments for up back, but could get no benefit from them. I finally heard about Doan’s Kidney Pills and procured a box at the Green ft Horgey Drug Co, They completely restored my kidneys to a healthy condition, and banished the headache.

City council is holding a special session this afternoon to conside' the flood question in Augusta and t<f de l vise ways and means to protect the city in the future. At the time of go ing to press the meeting had not con cluded and the final plans had not been mapped out, but Mayor Dunbar’s message outlines the situation fully and it was read shortly after 3 o’clock, council convening at that hour. The message is regarded as short and to the point, considering the mag nitude of the qeustion. It asks for the power to appoint a special flood commission consisting ot three mem bers from council and five from the citizens of the city. It is quite prob able that council will take the steps suggested. In addition to the ment of the commission $5,000 is ask ed for as an appropriation to make preliminary surveys and estimates ot the work under consideration. Before council adjourns the special commission will no doubt be named and the work of Investigating the pos sibility es preventing future inunda tions will be Inaugurated without de lay. The message of Mayor Dunbar to council was as follows: To the City Council of Augusta: When the casualty of August 26th visited our fair city, it left in its wake destruction and devastation. Since that date, both official Augusta and the community at large, have striven with the most praiseworthy energy to restore the city, their homes and places of business to their nor mal condition. The most important condition that confronted the city was the destruc tion of a large part of the canal bank, that deprived the community of itjs water supply. The health of the com munity, as well as its safety from tho perils of fire, made this condition the most dangerous that confronted our people. Every resource and energy of the departments have been exert ed tor the remedy of this most dis tressing and dangerous state of at fairs. In a tew days, at the very ex treme, this danger will have been en tirely remedied, and Augusta’s water supply will have been completely re stored. With the removal of this impending danger to the heßlth and safety of the community, we naturally turn to the prevention, for the future, of a recurrence, if possible, of a like hap pening in the history ot this city. At this point, I deslro to make ac knowledgement to the commercial bodies that may have started this hall in motion, looking to the procuring of information that may be of benefit to the community, in arranging for its future protection, and to urge a con tinuance of the patriotic efforts of ev ery citizen in this behalf. I have had your body convene, in order to bring this matter to your at tention, and to recommend the intro duction of an ordinance which will provide for a commission, empower 4ft with the duty ot procuring from the best engineering ability that the land affords, such a protection for the fu ture against a recurrence of freshets In the community. I recommend that the ordinance provide for the appoint ment of a commission, to consist ot three members of council, and five citizens from the community at large. 1 recommend further that the ordi nance provide for an appropriation of the sum of five thousand dollars, for the purpose of engaging such en gineering ability as may be required, to report to that commission a plan or scheme of defense against future freshets. The entire community, I feel, de mands our best efforts in this behalf, and I unhesitatingly say to council that I hope it will see fit to pass such an ordinance as is contemplted in my mind, and as suggested in this message, and I pledge my best efforts to appoint a commission composed of men whose integrity, ability and pa triotism is recognized in the comm un ity, and whose efforts and whose time and energy will be given to advance no other object than tho progress, prosperity and safety of the city of Augusta. SPREAD LIKE WILDFIRE- All Over America, the News of the Marvelous Dandruff Cures of Parisian Sage Has Spread. A few years ago there was intro duced Into America a cure for dan druff. falling hair and all scalp dis eases. This hair renewer did not attract much attention for some months, un i til a progressive business man, hear ing of several almost magical cures, decided to te»l the American people of its mighty power to destroy the deadly dandruff germ. And today, without any sensational or untruthful advertising. Parisian Sage is used extensively In almost every town in America. And what has produced tills great demand? simply this: Parisian Sage does just what we are telling the readers of Tho Herald it will do. We claim, and we back our claim with Alexander Drug Co.'s money back guarantee, that Parisian Sage is the most invigorating and rejuvinating hair tonic. It cures dandruff, stops falling hair and itching scalp; It makes the hair grow s rong and vig orous, yet soft and lustrous It Is the only hair dressing that reaches the root bulb of the hair and destroys the dandruff germ. And to the women who are reading this simple statement of face, we want to say that Parisian Sage works wonders with women's hair. It will turn dull, harsh and fad- d hair into ittful lustrous hair in#i few dayg, and is the most pleasant and satisfy ing hair dressing any woman ever used. i “My hair was falling out rapidly when I beard of your guaranteed hair ! restorer.
