THREE PRIVATES
Os The First Georgia Haue
Been AGGiflcntallg Killed
WAS J. T. MCALLISTER
Thu Sheriff of Clay County who
Killed Hyatt?
Knoxville, Tenn., September 20
—The developments of today
throw a stra.ige light upon the
tragic of Private James T.
McAllister, of the First Georgia
r g mint.
He is now known to have been
the Sheriff James T. McAllister of
Clay county, Georgia, who, thre >
years ago, slew Judson H/qitt, the
M«.-on commercial traveler, in
■Cook’s hotel, Fort Gaines.
Mr. McAllister joined the First
Georgia regiment after peace had
been declared, with the expressed
intention of making the army his
life work. He was a member of
company A and had been assigned
to special duty as a Red Cross
hospital nurse, being, one of a
squid from his company. The the
ory is now entertained that Mc-
Allister wag foully dealt with, and
was dfuggsd by parties who sub
sequently robbed him Hi always
carried money in his pockets, and
none was found at the time he re
turned to the hospital yesterday
morning. McAllister is the third
Georgia m m to die from accidental
means within the past week. His
body was shipped to Fort Gaines
today-;.
Private McAllister never referred
to his past life, and it was only
incidentally that it was dtscover
sd.that he been at one time
sherlfof hia home county. An ex
ahange of telegrams this, inorni ng
developed the rest, and then mem
bers of his regiment gathered up
the tangle 1 skein of the life which
had gone before, and which fur
bished this-story. :
James Titmer McAllister, sheriff
of Giay c >unty, killed Judsoa
Hyatt, trav# ing salesman of Den-
CTajp my, o.lil icon, three
years ag » fast M irch. The sho >t
ing occurred at Fort Gaines, in
Hyatt’s room, at night, in the
Ciok ho‘elj(>f which McAllister’s
wife was proprietress, she formers
ly having been Mrs. Cook, McAl
lister’s version of the story was
that whdb.he eame into the hotel
tliatn igiitThis wife .(jonjplained ,of
thenoD th at had been going off in
Hyatt’s room- to the disturbance
•of the qsher guests McAllister
.ijenftto Hyatt’s room tff ipmon
■gttitth with hint, and a difficulty
which McAll ster shot
and “killed Hyatt. McAllister
claimed he shot in self-defense.
Hyatt's friends have always said
it was cold-blooded murder.
At the trial of the case McAl'is-
Aer was acquitted. It is believed be
Vstijl..sheriff. Hyatt’s remains
ware brought to Fort Valey and
buried./'lle left a wife, who has
sjfiice married, and is residing in
August#- Hyatt was one «f the
mdslhptipular druggists in Georgia
’The bann«uberg Company engaged
DEupont Guerry, of Macon, to pro
secute McAllister.
/It is-aisp a matter of history
that the comoDrcia' travelers of
the country at greatly
inst lined over the tragedy and took
cbftimQii caftsa agnnst McAllister.
,‘THe Jitter, hpwevir, made a legal

deep*sorrow for the contingency
which brought about the tragedy.

GARRISON DUTY
t •
To be Performed by 40,000
Americans in Ctlba.
HALF ARE VOLUffTEERS.
Ten Thousand to Ordered
Within Two
Washington, Sept. 20.—1 tis
the present intention of the ad
i ministration te send to Cuba, as
a garrison fores for the island
about 40,000 troops, in addition
to tdie force now in Santiago
' under command of Gen. Lawton
I
The organizations which are
tto comprise the Cuban garrison
j have not all been designated
yet, but it is assured that at least
half of them will be volunteers.
Within two weeks orders will
be issued for the movement to
Cuba of the first 10,000 of the
I permanent garrison and it is the
’ expectation now that they will
jsa.il from the United States
about Oct. 10. These troops will
be followed quickly by others
until the entire force of 40,000
has been established on the
island.
It is not the intenti «n of the
administration, to’. n.’/ait the
evacuation of the island by the
Spanish forces before sending
United States to Cuba, as the
indications are that it may be
several months before the Cuban
complete their
work. Quite naturally a consid
erable number of Spanish troops
will remain on island until"
the arrangements for the relin
quishment of Spanish-sovereign
ty over it formally have been
concluded.
The rainy season in Cuba is
nearly at>an end and the most
delightful season of the year on
the island is about to begin.'
During the late fall and winter
mouths the climate in Cuba is
not only enjoyable, but healthful
and with such care as will be
taken for the health and comfort
of the American forces to be
stationed in Cuba, officials of
the war department have no
fear that serious ill iess among
the men will follow the occupa
tion of the island.

Almost all ill-health
to improper’or in-’
t nourishment. If
ach is right and the
V/ — liver is right, the blood will
receive its normal supply of the life-giving
dements of the food and the body will be
properly nourished. Dr Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery acts directly upon the
stomach and liver. It purifies and enriches
the blood. It is the great blood-maker,
flesh-builder, nerve tonic and restorative.
It promotes the natural activity of the en
tire nutritive organism. It puts an end
to the slow starvation that is at the base of
many diseases. It does not make flabby
fat like cod liver oil, but firm, muscular
tissues. It does not make corpulent peo- I
pie more corpulent but builds up the sy#- I
lem to the normal standard. I
“I was run down with nervous prostration and |
female weakness and kidney trouble,” writes [
Mrs Maranda Ramsey, of Smartt, Warren Co.. .
Tenn. "My bowels were constipated. My |
whole system was wrecked. My friends thought
I would die. I had read of Dr. Pierce's medi
cines and sent for the 'Golden Medical Dicov
ery,’ ' Favorite Prescription' and ' Pleasant Pel
lets.’ In one week's time I began to sit up. In
two weeks I could sit up all day. after being so
bad that I had to be helped in and out of bed. I .
have taken four bottles of ‘ Golden Medical Dis
covery ' and two of ' Favorite Prescription ' and
am in better health than I have beeu for years.’’
Constipation is the father of all manner
of maladies. If it did not exist, or was tn
all cases promptly relieved, the majority of
medical nooks could be safely destroyed.
It is the easiest sickness to neglect and the
simplest to cure Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant
Pellets cure constipation every time. They
cure it promptly, completely and perma- 1
ncntly. They never gripe. They don’t get
you out 'o nights. One “Pellet” is a
gentle laaative, and two a mild cat hart it.
