Horace Dart,
Ordinary, Glynn County.
Tiik publication of the Mayffower’s
passenger list has tilled a countless
number of fine family trees.
lluskv Dens is after a Tennessee
postofllce. He ought to run his name
through a threshing machine.
The man who wears clothes—and
there are several millions of him—
will soon begin to“ding” Mr. Dingley.
Greater New York is all right.
The assembly has passed the charter
of the big city over Mayor Strong’s
veto.
A paper published by lunatics is is
sued at St. Jihns, New Brunswick.
The Birmingham News suggests that
there are others.
Brunswick may not be able to claim
next Sunday the costliest millinery
display in the country, but it can
boast of the prettiest faces under the
millinery.
Tiik Macon News wishes to know
how it would have been if Mr. Bailey
had been invited to join the president
in a cocktail instead of a swallowtail.
The country would have been spared
a silly sensation, that’s all.
Tariff for revenue against tariff for
robbery will, according to the Louis
ville Dost, be the issue in the next
election. Upon this issue, the result
is not hard to forecast. But it ought
to be disheartening to Mr, Bryan.
Tiik .Southern railway’s “Southern
Field” has partly redeemed itself from
the criticism made recently in Thk
Times by giving in its last [April] is
sue several happy references to Bruns
wick and its prospects. The Times
hopes to see even more extended no
tices of the Southern’s South Atlantic
terminal port.
One J.L. Price, in a communication
to the Jesup Sentinel, calls upon the
farmers to“lock arms aud march to the
front.” The farmers have been
“marching to the front” for countless
years, but the sad fact still obtrudes
that they have never reached it. Per
haps the Honorable J. Pope Brown,
who has, at times, such rare visions of
our sturdy agriculturists rolling in
moneyed opulence, could give Mr.
Price some hints on that “marching
to the front” to which he so urgently
alludes.
THAT OLD TIME RIVALRY.
The disagreement between the
Brunswick and Savannah divisions of
the Naval Militia is most unfortunate;
and especially so just at this time,
when the Reserves of the two cities
were about to mingle with each other
on a holiday occasion.
But the volunteer military service is
and has ever been fraught with dis
putes and dissensions. This inclina
tion is more apt to make itself felt
when the question is one of a divi
sion of honors between two cities that
naturally indulge in a spirit of rivai
ry.
So far as the division of offices is
concerned, The Times reiterates its
statements, made in a recent issue,
that Brunswick’s claim for the navi
gator’s place is founded on good and
reasonable grounds. Through the en
terprise of the local Reserves, aided by
a few of our public-spirited citizens,
the monitor Passaic was brought to
Brunswick, and is now in the keeping
of the First and Fourth divisions.
•Savannah having no ship in her wa
ters the question naturally arises:
Will not the navigator, if a Savannah
man. have to come to Brunswick every
time there is a demand for a fulfill
ment of the duties of his office?
Brunswick originated the Naval
Militia in the state of Georgia and
Lieutenant Aiken was the prime
mover in its organization. Any sug
gestion ot giving the commander’s
office to another would not only be
indignantly rejected by Bruoswick’s
Reserves and the citizens in general,
but would, The Times feels confident,
not be listened to by the state military
authorities.
However, the war is on. Each side
is standing firm in its position and re
fuses to yield an inch. The contest as
to the legality of the election of cer
tain Brunswick and Savannah officers
will doubtless be fought out before the
governor at ai early day. The trouble
may result in the disbanding of the
whole battalion.
When they put a man in jail he can
not follow his natural inclinations, He
cannot eat what he wants to —he is
limited to a very frugal diet. Is it not
equally true of a dyspeptic? For all
of the real enjoyment he gets out of
life, he might as well be m jail. He
cannot eat what he likes, nor enough.
He suffers much, gets little sympathy.
At first, perhaps a little heaviness in
the stomach, a little sourness, windy
belchings and heartburn; headaches
biliousness and a foul taste in tbe
mouth in the morning. Chronic con
stipation is almost inevitable, and
means that the body is holding poison
ous, impure matter that should be got
ten rid of. The poison is being reab
sorbed into the blood and the whole
body. Impurity in the blood may lead
to almost any disease. Constipation is
the start of it all. Dr. Pierce’s Pleas
ant Pellets cure constipation, cure it
so it stays cured. No other remedy in
the world will do that.

THE TIMES: BRUNSWICK, GA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL 14, 1897.
IT WAS REAL BEER.
A Drama That Was Played to a Wild,
Hilarious Finish.
Stage realism has just about reached
tbe limit iu Williamsburg, N. Y. Au
amateur dramatic company made up
largely of young men and women who are
wage earners has been giving a series of
burlesques on Sunday evenings in a hall
that is a compromise between a dance
house and a beer garden. Tbe plays
have been written by members of the
company, and the stage setting required
realism to suit the critical audiences.
On a recent evening the action of the
play took place iu the barroom of a ho
tel. When the curtain went up, the
spectators saw a well equipped bar on
the stage, with a lifelike bartender, who
wore a big diamond stud. The actors
came in through the family entrance,
and with them came two men carrying
a keg of the kind that frequently holds
beer. It bad been tapped, and as soon as
it was in place the villain invited the
other actors to havo a drink.
A light amber colored fluid with froth
on the top was drawn from the keg and
drunk with apparent delight. The spec
tators applauded, and several of them
remarked that it was a good imitation
of beer. The villain-told the barkeeper
to setemupagain.
After the second round the hero began
to disclose the plot of tlio play, when the
villain interrupted with an invitation
to drink again. This was clearly inter
polated, but it was none the less wel
come. It was a cue for other members
of the cast, and while the amateur play
wright looked on with disgust the actors
interrupted his lines with frequent ad
journments to the bar.
The audience wasn’t quite sure but
this was a part of the play until the sec
ond keg was brought on and the actors
gave up talking to the audience and de
voted themselves to ordering the bar
keeper to draw another round. Before
the end of the act it was painfully ap
parent that real beer was being served
on the stage. If there was a second act
it was played behind the curtain, and
the audience didn’t get any of it.—New
York Sun.
ICEBERGS DRIFTING LOW.
Fierce Northwesterly Gales Have Driven
Them Far South.
Steamships that crossed the Atlantic
recently report having encountered much
ice and many bergs as far down as lati
tude 42 degrees, near the easterly edge of
the banks. It is unusual for the ice to
drift so far so early in the year.
The drift is accounted for by the un
usually fierce and persistent northwest
erly gales that have kept the Atlantic in
turmoil since the beginning of February.
These gales have forced the bergs from
the glaciers and carried them as far
south as they have ever been seen in
March.
The Hamburg-American liner Fiierst-
Bismarck, between latitude 42 degrees
7 minutes and latitude 42 degrees 6
minutes, passed two bergs the smaller
of which was 40 feet high and 120 feet
long. On the same day she ran into a
heavy sea, which momentarily stalled
her. There were no passengers on deck
at the time, or they might have been
hurt, as a part of the sea came aboard.
The French liner La Bretagne passed
a large berg in 42 degrees, which is as low
as any bergs have been seen for several
years. The Hamburg-American steam
ship Pennsylvania steamed through a
large quantity of heavy pack ice and
sighted several bergs. The German oil
tank Burgermeister Petersen was forced
to steer south 25 miles from latitude 42
degrees 10 minutes to avoid the field ice.
Pretty Silver 'Things.
Some of the new designs in silver
ware are very pretty. Silver jelly tum
blers and marmalade jar holders are in
openwork scroll patterns, are fastened
firmly to a silver plate and have a solid
cover. The glass or jar is placed inside,
and the jam spoon rests upon the plate.
Both Worcestershire and tabasco sauces
are thought by epicures not to have the
saino flavor if not taken from the origi
nal bottles. Some quick witted person
has devised a holder of filigree silver in
which to stand the bottle, thus making
the unsightly bottle an ornament.
Gained 1880 Pounds In Three Tears.
Mrs. Ruth Hollar, who weighed 400
pounds, died at her home recently iu
Alleghany City. Within three years she
had increased from 120 pounds to a fifth
of a ton. During the last six months she
had lived in the second story of her
home, being unable, on account of her
enormous size, to get either up or down
stairs. She was only 4 feet 5 inches in
height.

Nervous
People find just the help they so much
need, iu Hood's Sarsaparilla. It fur
nishes the desired strength by puri
fying, vitalizing and enriching the
blood, and thus builds up the nerves,
tones the stomach and regulates the
whole system. Read this:
“I want to praise Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
My health run down, an<f I had the grip.
After that, my heart and nervous system
were badly affected, so that I could not do
my own work. Our physician gave me
some help, but did not cure. I decided
to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Soon I could
do all my own housework. I have taken
Cured
Hood’s Pills with Hood’s Sarsaparilla,
and they have done me much good. I
will not be without them. I have taken 13
bottles of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and through
the blessing of God, it has cured me.
I worked as hard as ever the past sum
mer, and I am thankful to say I am
well. Hood’s Pills when taken with
Hood’s Sarsaparilla help very much.”
