Eleventh Districk Blacks Return to This Country from Liberia. New York, Nov. 7. —Two negro men three women and four children, gaunt hollow eyed and ragged, have arrived here from Europe, en route to their home in Ocilla, Ga., from Monrovia. They constituted a> part of the sur vivors of a party of 56 southern ne groes, who about a year ago, were sent by a number of philanthropists as am experiment of colonizing south ern negroes in Liberia. It was hoped the growing of cotton would mark the success of the ven ture as reports had shown that the soil of Monrovia was adaptable to* its growth. The colonists arrived there early in February. The found themselves in the midst of a tropical wilderness with only a few white traders, who were merely adventurers. The party planted their seeds hut their crops rotted or were washed away within two months. There were continuous rains for a month at a time and the natives were hostile and finally the jungle fever broke out and wrought havoc among the colonists. Their pro visions were depleted and they lived partly on native herbs and roots. Is less than eight mouths half of the en- tire party had died. The party that came back did so on funds furnished bv their former employes in Geor Gla. The negroes above referred to were the ones in whose interest Congress man Brantley has been so active. A story from the United States min ister in Liberia regarding their case was published ini these columns some few* days ago. They all live in this congressional district forlheTair —♦ — THOSE IN CHARGE OF THE RIFLE MEN'S FAIR GETTING IN GOOD SHAPE.

TRE REUNION • ♦ i Brunswick Veterans want I the Old Soldiers Here Next Year - ■ ■ -■ | BIG DELEGATION TO AUGUSTA, In Order to Capture the Next Conven tion Brunswick Should Send a Large Crowd to the Reunion ! This Year. It is very important that the com ing Confederate reunion in Augusta should be largely attended by both the veterans and son of veterans of this county. * In* the first place the people of Au gustai have arranged a program for the entertainment of the visiors that will eclipse those of any state meet ing held in years. Again, Jacksom camp of veterans, of this city, has been authorized to in vite the state organization to meet here next year amid it is very neces sary that the delegation extending the invitation should be a large and rep resentative one. A well known veteran told a News representative yesterday that many of the camps favored Brunswick as the next meeting place, but it was his opinion that this city should send a good, strong delegation in order to capture the reunion. The coming of this reunion to this city would mean a great wing tor Brunswick and it is to hoped that those who have tue maitter in charge will work vyry energetically to that end. Ur. W. B. Burroughs, who is very active in the matter, is now in Atlanta and is doing some good work tor this my in the interest ot the next meet ing. „ t EVERYTHING ■ - Depeds on Food. How often the kind of flood eaten depends the question oi£ future health and happiness pr even life. "Our little girl war? but five weeks old had to undergo a very severe op- eration which left her unable to take ner nourishment in the natural way, that is by nursing, and of course she had to be fed. She was naturally trail and the fopd did not help her. At the, age of 11 weeks she was sub jected to the second operation and irom time to time she continued to grow tninner aud weaker until sne was hut ai mere shadow’, writes a lady Jjlii onm. "We tried many kinds of infant foods ana then ,t,he doctor direct ed us to try Grape-Nuts. We dm so and the end ot the first week noticed an improvement and after that she uegalfl to improve rapidly. As we con tinued to give her Grape-Nuts she kept gaming until now she is more main two years old and strong and uealthy. tier main food has always been Grape-Nuts and to Grape-Nuts she Owes her lite.

Disturbances in Atlanta BRUNSWICK IS INTERESTED The Parties are Well Known Here and the Local Knights £ Great Interesting in the Fam- T , ous Squabble. Tile K. of P. squabble in Atlanta does not seem to have abated in the slightest degree and the matter is at tracting the attention of Pythians in all parts of the state and it deems very likely that the question calling for it will be brought to the attention oil the grand lodge when that body meets next year. The trouble grows out of the fact that one of the local lodges in At lanta expelled Editor Cronheim, of the Pythian Lodge Secret. The editor appealed to the district deputy, who sustained him and ordered the lodge to reinstate him to membership. This the lodge refused to do and the other lodges of the city, seven in all, joined each other and egreed to surrender their charters before complying with the order of the deputy. Editor Cronheim and many others prominent in the case, are wed known in Brunswick and the final outcome of the question will be watched with interest by members of the order in this city. PAUL GILMORE LAST NIGHT. Splendid Production of the "Mummy and the Humming Bird.” It was a great pity that there was a vacant seat in: the Grand last night. The play house should have been filled irom pit to dome for it will not soon have a better production than was Paul Ttilmom la "The ivLtmiliy and' the Humming Bird.” There is something catchy in the story from start to finish. It deals with the scientific husband lost in his research, busy in his work who for gets to make love to his wife. An in terloper in. the shape of an Italian author, attractive and dashing, comes along, meets the wile, offers her sym pathy, falls madiy in love with her and thrusts tempation which is partly ac cepted in, her path. Then follows the struggle of the wife between the honor of her husband and the infatuation for her lover, she is almost on the tresh old of yielding when tier Husband res cues her rruin her fate and exposes the Italian who manages to escape both the wronged husband in this case and another who turned up as an or gan grinder aud finds employment in the Crumlv home. Of course Mr. Gilmore was the fav orite of the evening hut Miss Urew as Lady Lumley. was exceptionally strong and measured up magnificient ly in the second act when sne leaves ner husband for the companionship of her lover. Miss Luhrman as Mrs. Ruth Thornton, a cousin ot Lord Lum ley, was also a favorite witn the au dience as was Mr. Florence as Uorelli, and Mr. Alartin as Guiesseppe, wrong ed husband number one. The staging was in perfect taste, the scenery was .elaborate aud the cos tumes worn by the ladies during the evening were gorgeous. Mr. Gilmore was here last season it,-, "The Tyranny of Tears” and at tha y time won his way into the hearts of the theater lovers ot this city ami while the house wan not as large last night as it should have been it was not a small one and a half dozen cur tain calls during the evening attested its approval oi Lite hill.

Nov. 7. —A double crime resulting in loss of lite and property occurred here this inqrning in the burning of a large ham on the place of C. W. Parrott by unknown parties. James Reddick, a fam hand who al-j ways slept in the liarn, was roasted his charred body being found in the debris. The fact that Reddick’s body was found in a section of the building en tirely separate from Reddick's quarters indicates possible murder. The contents of the building consis ting of two hundred l*alos ol hah> i a 'bales of cotton, several hundred >.s-.li els of feed, wagons and buggies, j Officers with dogs immediately v. ■at to the scene but the chances ol get jling the guilty parties arc not good.

Erwin said: “There is nothing in that whatever. “The government does not need Car ter’s evidence to convict Gaynor and Green. The evidence to convict them is super abundant. "What tile government needs is to have Gaynor and Green in such a po sition that the government can use the evidence it already has against them. Whether we get them in that position or not depends greatly upon the action of the British privy coun cil, before which the appeal from the decision of Judge Caron, of Quebec, was made.

Dunn, the popular collector of customs, visited the public building yesterday for the purpose of taking a look over the new quarters that his force will occupy when tlio building is completed. Col. Dunn reports that the new of fices are splendidly arranged and well finished in every particular and that the people of Brunswick will be very much pleased when they go through the building and see how the con tractors have done their work. He states that the building inside is a thing of beauty and comfort and will be a great convenience to those who have business to transact with the government. HE is TO PRACTICE IN THIS CITY W. C. Brobston is to Make His Home in Brunswick. In this issue of The News will be found the professional card of W. C. liroibston, attorney at law. Mr. Brobston is well and favorably known* toi the people of Brunswick and it is a pleasure to record the fact he has decided to make this his home. Mr. Grobston has been studying law ait te Mercer university and from which lie graduated with honors. Be fore entering college he studied at home for a number of years. During his term at Mercer the class was lec tured several times by Judge Emory Speer, judge of the United States court, than whom there is no more abler man on the bench in the Uni ted States. Coming before the people of his ad opted home to practice, Mr. Brobstoai will, no doubt, receive a cordial w , come from the bench and bar as well as the public all of whom recognize him as a young man of brilliant mind and studious habits. GAME WARDEN 1 JUDGE PARKER WILL BE ASKED TO NAME ONE WHEN HE AR RIVES NEXT MONTH. Tho game law passed at the recent session of the legislature seems to he meeting with general favor all over the stale and in most of the counties the judge of the superior court has been asked to appoint game warden, whose duty it would be to see that the new laws is not violated. Here in Glynn county we have fish wardens hut no game wardens aud The News understands that Judge Parker will he asked to appoint one when he comes to hold the tall term of the superlorr court next month. This is a very important matter aud it is to be hoped mat tne court win name the proper person for the work and one who will enlorce the law. At any rate the uid law has been igiioreu in tne past aud it will be but a lew years beiore game of all kino will be completely exterminated un less the law is enforced. NEW FREIGHT RATES. Uniform Bills of Lading to be Used by the Railroads. A movement has been started among freight agents to correct an evil that has been steadily growing among ship pers in. this section, The evil is the use of individual hills of lading instead of the use of the uniform bills printed by the roads and easily to be had for the asking. Individual bills have been used iu pref erence to those furnished by the roads because the individual bill can be used by tbe shippers and consign ces also as drayage receipts. But while it may he true that this makes the individual bill conveuiuut there are other reason why they should not be used. 'Pile reason for objection ot tbe use of these bills is the fact that while the courts of Jaw recognize the con tract which is printed on the back of the railroad bills tlity will not re cognize tbe contract on the indivi dual bill'?. The latter are not printed at all but in many cases are stampted and iu:m. of the time the leims ot the regular contract, which is printed on the regular bill, are not given at ail On tbe regular blanks the eon tract is recognised by file courts and those who want to be sate should by all means use the regular hill of lad ins. 111 in Atlanta.

NATION'S SOtONS MEET TOMORROW Extra Session of Congress Promises to Bea Busy One lORECAST 01 MS DOINGS It Is Believed That th e Cuban Reciprocity Treaty Will be the Only Important Matter Before i the Extra Session. Washington, Nov. 7.—The ratlfiea tion of the Culiau reciprocity treaty is all that is included on the present program of the extraordinary session of congress, which will open Monday. It was originally desired by the ad ministration to take up financial legis lation at thel special session, but this idea lias mow been abandoned aud un less ail signs fail comparatively little attempt will be made to accomplish anything of importance other thau the ratification of the Cuban treaty. ihe ratification of the treaty has been done by the Cuban congress and and it now only lacks the necessary legislation by too United States con gress to become effective. The iuia uve for this rests with the house ut representatives. The fact thau sever al weens are required tor tne organ ization of mat bouy nas excited appre uensiou in some quarters that tnero will be considerable delay in getting me reciprocity joint resolution in shape, ana tuut actiou may bl* pre vented at tne calico session, in cir- ties better luiorm&u, However, mere exists no apprehension on this account ioi while me speaiier is not likely to have all the committees reauy lor announcement uetore uecember, tie un uoubtediy wilt announce tue commit tee on ways ana means aim tne coim uiitlee on accounts ana mileage some nine, uitnng the corning week.

Monday will be devoted to the read ing of the president’s message. The general expectation is that tho mes sage will be brief and will deal only wtih Cuban reciprocity and possibly with financial legislation, in his mes age it is thought that the president will direct the attention ot congress to the moral obligations affecting Cuba and point out the duty ot the house to endorse the action of the senate iu passing the Cuban recipcot* city treaty. If the subject of financial legisla lion is touched upon it is believed that deli bate recommendation will be made by the president along the lines of (lie speech made by Secrelaiy Shaw. Hie difference of opinion entertain ed by the administration and by iead- ing republican members of congress on tlie question of financial legisla tion renders it hopeless to expect that anything along this line can ire accom plished in the short time which the extra session has before it and iu view of these facts it is altogether probable that the matter will be left I out of the president's'- message entire ly, though he had previously deter mined to give it especial prominence.
