RIVER RICH BUT 10 GOING DOWN The river is a little more than 27 feet, but it has reached its maximum stage, and will probably begin to go down again by late Thursday after ; noon. There is absolutely no danger of the river going any higher, as no heavy rains are reported from up country. The high river “slipped-up” on the city, as nobody was expecting a rise. This may be explained, perhaps, by the fact that no rain of any conse quence has fallen here In the last two or three days, except the heavy down pour which lasted about an hour Tues day night. But while a precipitation of the thunderstorm variety was drenching Augusta by night, a long, steady rain was falling up-country, and that’s what made the river rise. Reports coming by telegraph to Observer Fisher Wednesday morning showed rainfalls as follows: At Anderson 1.11 Inches, at Greenwdod 1.91 Inches, at Toccoa 1.91 inches, at Washington 1 68 inches. No rains of any consequence were recorded up the country Wednesday, and it is therefore predicted that the river will soon begin to move back to its normal height again. Observer Fisher says Friday will be the foulest of the week. There is an old saw, with which most ev erybody is familiar, to the effect that Friday is always the fairest or the foulest, or words to that effect. In dications point to rain. It will not be a brisk spring-like rain, but a slow, soaking drizzle, accompanied by low temperature. Thursday's weather conditions bear out very strongly Mr. Fisher’s prog nostication. It has been cloudy all day, and there has been a percept ible decline in thermometer figures. In fact, it has been “airlsh," as a mes senger boy describes the weather. CARS OF PEACHES ARE PLEDGED TO EXCHANGE Ninety-One Percent of the Crop Will Be Handled By the Fruit Exchange. ATLANTA, Ga.—Offleers of tho Georgia Fruit Exchange here an nounce (hat with 215 cars of peaches pledged last week, they have a total pledged of 5,266 cars of peaches in the Georgia territory, or 91 per cent, of .the total yield. Considering that there are still a few scattering ship ments that will be pledged shortly, and that the original expectations of the offleers were not above 90 per cent., the showing Is considered a flno one. The territory between Rome and Chattanooga made an especially good showing. C. A. Barrett, special rep resentative of the Exchange, pledged 104 cars from Individual growers, and from the North Geofgia Fruit Co., of Summerville, and the Menlo Georgia Fruit Co., of Menlo. Seventeen cars were pledged by mall. Mr. Teasley a grower of Canton, Ga., pledged 12 cars and President H. C. Bagley, of the Exchange, se cured a pledge from Captain G. C. Colyar, owner of the Oolyarton Farm at Mcßae’s Crossing, Ga. of 85 cars. Captain Colyar Is one of the big ship pers of the state. , While a delayed train interferred somewhat with the meeting of Cleve land, Tonn., growers, President Bag ley succeeded In meeting the leading growers there, and Indications are that the Tennessee fruit men will co operate with the Exchange. On next Tuesday there will be a full meeting of the board of trustees Dizziness Danger Signal Forerunners of More Serious Condi tions of the Alimentary Tract. Invariably flatulence and dizziness indicate the beginning of serious trou bles, stomach and intestine trou bles usually follow which sooner or later develop symptoms of au alarm ing nature. Catarrh of the stom ach, gastritis, constipation, piles, liver troubles and a general break down of the health usually follow these symptoms when left to run their full course. Wheu the stomach Is not performing Its proper duty ths rest of the system is sure to suffer. As it is a well-known fact that the stomach feeds the rest of the body and organs, therefore many other dis eases may arise, either directly or In directly from disorder of the stom uch. Whenever there Js the slightest in dications of flatulenco or dizziness no ticed it should be cared for at once that it may not develop more danger ous symptoms. Charcoal Is an excel leut remedy for the stomach, reliev ing flatulence by absorbing tie pois onous gases that accumulate in the stomach, and aiding digestion and as similation: it has a specific action upon this organ, and a very rapid and positive action on the system in gen eral. Charcoal has been used for sev eral thousand years, both as a stom achs regulator and an antidote for poisons taken in the stomach, the success of charcoal is unquestionable. The only remaining question is to get charcoal in the moat convenient and palatable form. The F. A. Stuart Co. manufacture a charcoal lozenge composed of young willow wood char coal and pure honey, making this valuable product convenient, palata ble and perfectly harmless. A aam pie will be sent upon request, or Stu art’s Charcoal Tablets can be had a' any drug store. Price 25c per box The F. A. Stuart Co., 20U Stuart Bldg., Marshall, Mich.

Mme. Pasquali came next and there was a burst of spontaneous applause after her singing of the “Grand Valse,” Yenvano, and she was called out many times. Her first number was “Caro Nome,” from “Rigoletto.” Rie cardo Martin sang “Liebeslied,” from “Die Walkure,” and a couple of songs, and Leon Rains Flegier’s “Le Cor” and “Hear Me, Ye Winds and Waves,” Handel.
