unit ITEMS OF GEORGIA CITIES
Savannah.—The fourth victim of the
boiler explosion on the United States
torpedo boat Craven, off Tybee Island,
Ga„ ten days ago, died at the post hos
pital at Fort Screven on the island.
He was Thomas Gabbitt of Brooklyn,
N. Y., a first class fireman.
Cordele. —The wave of prosperity
that has come over this entire section
as a result of the good prices for cot
ton has been greatly emphasized by
the passing of the last week, during
which time more than one thousand
bales of cotton were brought into the
local market. The warehouse receipts
now are 6,500 bales, and perhaps 1,-
000 bales have been shipped in to the
local compresses from points over
Crisp county that are not counted in
these receipts.
Waycross.—October 1 is the date
named for the formal opening of the
Waycross Country Club, which has
just been completed. The home, a
modern one in every respect, two sto
ries high with basement, is of brick,
with tile roof. The location, just east
of Waycross, on a high hill, overlook
ing the Satilla river, is an ideal one,
and the large grounds owned by tho
club will be immediately put in splen
did condition.
Dublin. — Will English, a negro, was
killed here by having his head cut off
when run over by a freight train on
the M., D. & S. railroad, while he
was laying on the track in a drunken
stupor. His head was lying on the
rail, and it was severed from his body
as neatly as if done at one stroke
with an ax, and rolled nearly one
hundred feet from the body. There
was only one other slight scratch on
his body.
Athens.---Because he wouldn't take
the seventh successive drink with his
companion. Horace Denton, aged about
20 years, was stabbed to death last
night at the Southern Manufacturing
company’s factory near this city, the
stabbing said to have been made by
Jack Scroggins, a friend of the young
man. who was slashed to death. Seven
long gashes were cut in Denton’s
head, face, shoulder, neck and chest.
The stabs into the neck over the col
lar bone and into the breast over the
heart caused the death, it was decided.
Dawson.—While a large voltage of
electricity was being sent through his
body from a live wire upon which he
had fallen, Wilburn Smith, a young
telephone lineman, succeeded in call
ing for help and giving directions for
his rescue. By what seemed a miracle
he escaped with his life, but was seri
ously burned about his limbs. After
falling upon an electric wire from the
telephone pole on which he was work
ing, in spite of the torture he was suf
fering, Smith called to onlookers to
phone the electric plant to shut down
the current. Other linemen arrived
in time to secure a rope about the
injured man.
Athens. —Judge Brand, who has
been prominent over the state for ef
forts to suppress pistol-toting, had oc
casion to deal swift justice to an of
fender of this class at Homer just
before he adjourned court to come
home to Athens. J. H. Seay was in
dicted for selling liquor, and rested
by the sheriff in the court crowd,
carried to the jury room and told to
remain wdiile the officer kindly went
after a bondsman. Seay followed into
the courtroom and was thrice ordered
back, and when the sheriff grasped his
belt the man threw his hand to the hip
pocket. The officer grabbed the hand
and wrenched a pistol loose in the
presence of the court and the audi
ence. In half an hour he had been
sentenced to six months’ service for
the offense.
Lyerly.—ln the presentments of the
grand jury which was in session, the
subject of good roads was taken up
and all the jurors favored the move
ment. They say, in speaking of the
Atlanta-Chattanooga highway: “A
great deal has been said on the good
road subject and we believe this is
a matter our entire county is interest
ed in. The work now being don 4 by
our board, we believe, has the hearty
approval of the citizens of Chattooga
county and bespeaks their best sup
port. With the co-operation of the cit
izens of Chattooga county and the
proper encouragement, we have every
reason to believe that this board will
continue its good work and such prog
ress will be made that the whole coun
ty will be benefited.
Quitman.—One of the largest confla
grations Quitman has had in 17 years
occurred here, a general alarm given
summoning the firemen to the business
section of the city. After hard fight
ing the flames were put out. The fire
originated upstairs in the Brooks
county Drug company, and the build
ing and half the block was in danger
when the alarm was given. Following
are the losses: H. P. Townsend com

Were the Agonies Which Miss Lance
Underwent. She Lives to Tell
the Story, However.
Balmer, Okla. —In a letter from
this place. Miss Forrest E. Lance
says; As I have been benefited by
the use of Cardui, the woman’s tonic,
I want to write this letter for publi
cation, as it may be the means of
helping other suffering women.
For three years, I suffered so, at
times, with my back and bearing
down pains, 1 would think I could
not possibly endure the pain. I
gradually got worse, and would look
with dread for these trying times to
roll around.
Finally 1 decided to try Cardui,
the woman’s tonic, as I bad heard so
much of its help tp other women,
and how glad I am that I did, for 1
can truthfully say that I have been
greatly benefited by taking only four
bottles; in fact, it has entirely re
lieved me.
I can truly sympathize with any
sufferer from those awful pains due to
womanly trouble, for I have certainly
had the experience of them.”
As a medicine for women who suf
fer from the numerous ailments pe
culiar to their sex, or as a tonic for
tired, nervous, worn-out women,
Cardui has a record of more than 50
years' success.
It has benefited thousands of
women in this time, and should do
the same for you.
Give Cardui a trial.

Traveler's Railing at the Perversity
of Fate, as Related by Senator
Tillman.
Senator Tillman rashly declared
some time ago that the frying of
chicken was a lost, art in Washington,
and ever since that day he has been
deluged with Washington fried chick
en by parcel post. He had no idea
that Washington housewives were so
sensitive.
“I am now converted,” he said re
cently. “I now admit that Washing
ton fried chicken is superb. But still
every mail brings me more and more
pullets and capons and yearlings. My
case is as hopeless as the commu
ter's.
“A commuter was In a dreadful
wreck. The collision had been head
on, four coaches were telescoped,
flames burst forth, the shrieks and
groans of the dying mingled with the
hiss of escaping steam and the roar
of the fire.
"The commuter, black as a coal,
was dragged out by the feet from un
der a mound of charred and mangled
corpses.
"A physician bent over him anx
iously.
“'Are you hurt?' he asked.
“The commuter opened his eyes and
stretched himself. Then, rising, he
snarled:
"'Hurt? Me? Os course I ain't
hurt* I never am! 1 can't be! I
carry an accident insurance policy.’ ”

They Hadn't Been Wasted.
“Oh," Mr. Broome!" The sad eyed
young poet was calling to his board
ing mistress. “Did you throw away
those blank sheets I left on my table
this morning?”
1 did, Mr. Scribbles," came the
apologetic reply; “weren't they waste
paper?”
“Not yet,” returned the poet, sadly;
“1 hadn't written anything on them.”
Sleuthing.
“I asked her if her husband
smoked," said the woman with an in
quiring mind; “and what do you
think! She said she didn’t know!”
“I don’t see what difference it
makes to you.”
“Oh, I don’t care whether he smokes.
I wanted to find out if he kisses her.”
