Tlhe Riflemen will go as far ar ('or acle on the A., B. & A. At that plac* they will take tn e Central to Macon, where they will join the balance of the First Georgia regiment and con tiuue on to Chickamauga. It is probable that the company will take the full allowance of men —three officers and forty man. The local company has been drilling three times a week for the past month and is in first class snape. Capt.

EXPECTED THAT COUNCIL WILL TAKE SOME ACTION The meeting of city council next Thursray night, will be the last one before August JO, the day on which the Neff trolley franchise time limit expires. Just what tihe solons will do in the matter is not known and none of them sems willing to discuss the ques tion. It may be that the franchise ftas been quietly transferred, but in that instance the SIO,OOO bond pul up by Neff and his associates would be due. That the money will never be collected is generally known, as g matter of fact that was known when It was furnished. The situation is indeed a very embarrassing qijo to the members of council, and just 'liqw they are going to dispose of the matter is a puk-zle. Incidentally, five .or six hundred dollars, wagered by local business men several months ago that Neff would not carry out his contract, is still in the hands of the stakeholdres and will 'he awarded to those who took the “cinch” of a bet on August 10 WM.

He alleges (hat she is of i ve-y high temper and Hint often laboring under mistaken ideas, .lie lias used harsh measures toward him, on o-.tc occasion attacking him with a pair of scissors, from which painful wounds were received. The petition in the case is a long one and sets out numbers of grievances from which he has suffered. Mrs. Morel is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Matthews, of this city, and several years ago was married to James Langsdon. a wairhmakcr em plowed in tills city. The union was nol a happy one and she sued for and obtained a divorce from him in tin Glynn superior court. Later she was married to Mr. Morel with the above results. The young wife is well known in the city. It is net known whether or not she will make any defense to the suit filed by hey husband. First Official Report of Pythian Ser vice to the Stricken San Fran cisco Sufferers The first preliminary report of the California Pythian relief fund lias been issued by C. F. S. Neal, treas urer, and shows that $X2,843,89 was received for distribution trom all the lodges in the United States and some in Canada. More than $23,0(10 of this money has been distribut'd to needy sufferetrs, ami plans are pending to distribute the rest of it. The Knights of Pythias were among the first to begin Sending relief to the sufferers in ’Frsco. indeed, before tin ashes of tihe great catastrophe had gotten cold stations were opened l'or the apportionment of food and sup plies. Not only were the Knights given shelter and funds, but other deserv ing individuals were treated with equal consideration. The order went so fat is to advertise in the papers for those in need of assistance. The movement, was one of the greatest and the speed iest that lias ever come under the no tice of the public, in cases of such 1 emergency. Money was freely dis pensed. regardless of church or creed. Fraternity, sympathy and ‘benevo lence characterized the great call in the hour ot need. Col. George Samuels, supreme rap resentative of California, was the mainspring of the helping effort When in lack of funds he used his personal money to dissipate the suffering and alleviate the pain ot the refugees. He gave personal attention to the relief work, and was on duty from early un til late, giving his special attention to each appeal. Many persons who had never heard of the Knights of Pythias were given thp same consideration as if they had been members of long standing. The amount sent from Georgia lod ges was $9*9,50, the greater part -if this coming from the grand lodge. WERE WEDDED LAST NIGHT Mr. John W.

Hon. Robert L. Berner, formerly of Forsyth, now Hoke Smith’s law part ner in Atlanta, yesterday notified the Brunswick Hoke Smith club that ho would gladly acept their invitation tJ deliver an address here in advocacy of Mr. Smith’s candidacy for gover nor, and (lie date has been sot for m xl Thursday evening. The city hall lias been secured by the local club and the melding will be held there. It is probable that this hall will be overcrowded and many chairs will be placed there in order that all may have seats. Mr. llorncr is one of the most force ful orators in the state. So far he has not taken an active part in the campaign and his speech in liruiis wii; I; will be the first to bo dilovorod iu behalf of his law partner. No man in Georgia is betted qualified to go into the issues of bile campaign than Mr. Berner and il is expected that his address will be one of the best ever heard in this city. The llolce Smith lull also announces that Hon. Reuben Arnold, the noted and eloquent attorney of Atlanta, will also probably speak hero laler in tho month in tho interest of Mr. Smith's candidacy. The fight in Glynn county is getting warm about now, but it is generally conceded that Mr. Smith will cury it, by a good majority. WHAT IS BEING DONE BY THE GEORGIA LEGISLATURE Atlanta. August 2.—An effort lo re consider tlie action of the house in 5 assing ye sterday the hill of Mr. Whitley, of Douglas, defining as in digciit Confederate veterans those over li.i years of age and w'liose personal property is not more than $l,0(lb Whose income is less than SIOO per year and who are unable of manual labor lo support themselves and pro vidiug a pension for them or then widows. met with defeat in the low er house- this morning. Realizing (hat a motion to recon ■'dtr if enterlained might result hi ilie defeat of the bill, or at least place it at tlie foot of the calendar, the house refused to reconsider ami stood by its action of yesterday by a vote of 53 to 99. The motion lo reconsider was made bv Mr. Davis, of Burlce, who stated in explanation that he merely wished to reconsider for tlie purpose of of fering an amendment providing that the pensions should not become avail able until Japuary, J9QX. He stated that the appropriation for such mat ters had already been made for the year 1907 and that there would ho no funds available in the treasury. Debate on the motion lasted for two hours and a half and the shortness of funds was repeatedly urged as a rea son for reconsidering, 'but funds or no fuuds the house stood liiv-i and re fused to jeopardize the chance of the old veterans in drawing pensions. The house also passed by an over whelming nmority tin; senate bill as substituted by the committee of the' house, which provides for the estab lishment of an agricultural and in dustrial college at Valdosta to lie a branch of the state University. The bill carries no appropriation! with it, it being explained that the' city of Valdosta would furnish tho site and erect the building and that! it was only desired that the state take charge of the institution after it was established. A bill of some interest over the state was Introduced by Mr. Davis, ol Bifbb, to amend section CT.'i of the code, so that purchasers of personal property shall not without consent of vendor remove sue h property beyond the limits of the county in which pur chasers reside.
