RED HOT SENSATION
IN THE CONVENTION
CAME YESTERDAY
ALL ABOUT
A HEWS STORY
-♦ —
GIVEN TO THE PRESS ABOUT
THE ELECTION HELD BY THE
ASSOCIATION AT THE .MEET
ING TUESDAY.
NAME OF INFORMANT WAS FUR
NISHED BY NEWSPAPER MAN
AND DEVELOPMENTS ARE NOW
LOOKED FOR.
The session of the Georgia phai
macists yesterday developed some red
hot sensations.
It came about in toe denunciation of
the informant of the correspondent
m several out of town papers and Tie'
News, regarding an alleged nomina
tion for a member of the state board
of pharmacist. This correspondent
and The News wore informed by l>r.
George F. Payne that J. G. Dodson,
of Aluerteua, was nominated a member
of the statui board over Dr. W. S.
Elkin. of Atlanta.
On the floor of the convention yes
terday Dr. Elkin and others denoun
ced the informant in tins most em
phatic and larid terms. When the
press man was requested to name ills
informant hit promptly did so. Dr.
Payne was present at the demiucitory
sp leches but failed to exlionorate
the press man who lie had gotten to
publish the reportt.
Tlift d|iiggists 'wi'i'l' considerably
wrought. up and wanted to ox pel the
man who gave the correspondent the
information. They got so hot in the
collar over the matter that the newly
elected president. John 11. Polhliill,
had to call them down repeatedly and
call their attention to the fact that
they were) gentlemen and could not
afford to indulge in such language
and talk on the floor of the convent
ion. The whole thing reminded one
of “a hot time in the old town to
night" and it was well into the night
before the matter cooled down.
Personal difficulties were avoided
but the convention borderedon them
for some minutes.
ac the closing hour last night
everything was in fairly good shape
but Dr. Elkin and his friends s till
had blood in their eyes. They now
know from whom the report came and
can seek satisfaction accordingly.
Reveals a Great Secret.
It is often asked how such start
ling curts, that puzzle the heat phy
siciams, are effaicted by Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption.
Here’s the secret. It cuts out the
phlegm and germ-infected mucus, and
lets the life-giving oxygen enrich and
vitalize the blood. It heals the in
flamed, cotton-worn throat and lungs.
Hard colds and stubborn coughs soon
yield to Dr. King's Now Discovery,
the most infallible remedy for all
Throat and Dung diseases. Guaran
teed bottles 50c and SI.OO Trial bot-
Brain-Food Nonsense.
Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent au
thorities. They have dispelled the sil
ly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain, another for muscles,
and still another for bones. A correct
diet will not only nourisn a particular
part of. the body, hut it will sustain
every other part. Yet, however, good
your food may he, its nutriment is de
stroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia.
You iffust prepare for tneir appearance

regular Joses of Green's August Flow

healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifies the tA'"'*!. and

PRICE FIVE CENTS
A DOWNPOUR
OF RAIN
CAUSED POSTPONEMENT OF
THIS IMPORTANT EVENT IN
THE DAY'S PROGRAM AT THE
MEETING.
Tne competitive prize drill, which
was to have occurred in Valdosta
yesterday between the several uni
form rank companies, Knights of Py
thias, was called off on account of a
heavy rain which came up early in the
day.
To say that each company pres
ent was disappointed would only be
putting it milaiy. They each were
sure of capturing the first prize and!
much rivalry, in a friendly way, ex
isted among the companiep.
A telegram received by the News
last night stated that the popple of
Valdosta had endeavored to get the
companies to remain over and have
tlid prize drill today, as ttiey have
taken great interest in the drill, but
the members of a majority of tin l
companies stated that they were com
pelled to be in their respective homes
today, and the dUtl was compelled
to lie called off for the year.
Oglettborpe division, of this city,
who were doubtless sure to capture
the prize, will arrive homq this morn
ing, g|c;|tly disappointed that) ,tna
drill did not occur.
WANTS SOME MORE MEMBERS.
Places to Be Filled in the Popular
Marine Band.
Leader Baumgartner, of the Marine
band, desires The News to say that
he will now receive new members in
that popular organization, and de-i
sires those who wish to become mem
bers to meet with him in the halt.
Naval Reserves’ armory tonight.
Several members of the band have
recently left the city, resignd or other
wise left the organization and Mr.
Baumgartner desires to keep the mem
bership filled.
Coins of Rarly Days.
The early Biblical references to
pieces of silver do not in the original
convey the idea of coins, but of weights,
shekels. The Mosaic “oblation to God”
was a half shekel, and the shekel Is ex
plained by Josephus as equal to four
Athenian drachmae of a value of about
55V& eents in American money. The
first Jewish coinage under authority
was, it is believed, struck by Simon the
Maccabee, about the year 140 B. C. it
consisted of shekels and half shekels.
This coinage bad its value signified
upon it, “Shekel Israel,” in Samaritan
characters.
