WE WILL HONOR HIM-
Brunswick proposes, next year, to
celebrate fittingly the tw’o hundredth
anniversary of the birth of General
James Edward Oglethorpe.
It is strikingly appropriate that the
celebration should be held here, be
cause the great founder of Oeorgia
was most intimately connected with
the origin of this city ; and it was on
St. Simon that he achieved his great
victory over the Spaniards.
The exact nature and scope of the
celebration has not yet been deter
mined, but it will be one worthy of
what it typifies, and a credit not only
to Brunswick but to Georgia.
OUR ADVERTISERS.
Tub Times wishes to call special at
tention to the wide scope of business
enterprises represented in this issue.
Sucli a general representation indi
cates that tbe business men of Bruns
wick are live and energetic, conscious
ot the benetits of judicious advertis
ing, and ready to aid in matters of
municipal advancement.
In its effort to makes comprehen
sive presentation of the commercial
interests of Brunswick, The Times
met with but few refusals. Yester
day, when it was too late for the re
ception of further advertising, appli
cations were received from many
sources for space—among them from
some of the repenting few who had
previously refused.
Tl.e leading business men of Bruns
wick and Glyun county are up-to
date, as their presence in this Mid
summer Issue conclusively proves.
Such a class is the backbone of a city,
Brunswick is especially fortunate iu
her commercial citizenry.
A WORD ABOUT SHIPPING
During the dark days of the panic
of 1893 there were not a few men who,
although faithful and loyal to Bruns
wick in the past, bewailtd muchly in
public places. They saw no future
for the oily to which they had given
eo much. They declared, “Bruns
wick is dead. Her shipping business
lias gone never to return. Her best
people have deserted. Investment
will give her a wide berth. Five
years from today Brunswick will be
uolhing but a memory .”
It was, therejore, with a keen shook
of surprise that these same men of pes
simistic view awoke on the morning of
January ], 1897, and saw proven in
cold figures that Brunswick had not
ouly retrieved all its temporary losses,
but had actually, for the year ISO 6,
made the greatest shipping rt cord of
any year in its history.
Such is the undeniable fact, but
there is a supplemental statement
even more gratifying. A report of
the shipping business of the first live
months of 1897, taken from the books
of Capt. Otto Johanneson, especially
for this issue, shows that the ratio of
increase has been uninterruptedly
maintained. In plain tlgures the in
crease for the first live months of 1897
over the lirst live months of 1890 is
#1,'422,408. Continuing at this rate,
the sum total of shipping for 1897 will
be close to $20,000,000.
On page 8 The Timks presents com
prehensive tabular reports of the slop
ping of the port. They fully answer
the question, “Is Brunswick grow
ing?”
OUR MIDSUMMER ISSUE-
Thk Times, in publishing this, the
largest paper ever issued in Bruns
wick, has cbielly in mind the great
benefit which such a publication,
widely distributed, is to the city and
section which it represents. The un
dertaking has required great expense
and labor, but all this is fully justi
fied by the results obtained.
From these twenty closely-printed
pages sent out over the couutry by
Thk Timks today, the reader can ob
tain a completer and a better idea of
Brunswick and Glynn county than
auy similar publication has allowed.
The many illustrations, nearly all of
which were made especially for this
issue, and the well-written and com
prehensive articles, prescut to the in
vestigator, in attractive form, the re
sources and features of our favored
eity-by-the aea.
Thk Timks takes pride iu the publi

its magnificent land-locked harbor, its
famous outlying islands.
Every feature of tbe life of Bruns
wick and Glynn county is brought out
in this issue, in entertaining style. It
has been tbe aim of the publishers to
make tbe paper as free as possible
from the sameness of tbe ordinary
trade issue—to enliven it and bright
en it, so tbat everyone into whose
hands it falls wilt feel tempted to
read it through and not be satisfied
until the desire is gratified.
The edition, consisting of 6,000
copies, will be distributed not only to
ttie regular subscribers to The Times,
but, through a special arrangement,
and under the personal direction of a
special employe of The Times, sev
eral thousand copies will he given out
at the Nashville exposition to people
from every section ot the Union.
Telling, iu its teeming pages, the
story of a beautiful section, favored
by nature and inviting all people to
share in its unequalled bounties, the
purpose of The Times’ Midsummer
Issue is to interest and attract the at
tention of Americans to this city and
county. If it aclii ves, even in a
small measure, Ibis mission, its pub
lishers wi.l tiel that lliey have not
labored m vain.
This is-ue of The Times will go to
applicants for copies in all the coun
tries on the gh.be. A friend of Bruns
wick iu far-off Soul h Africa has writ
ten for a number of copies, and there
are orders to imul copies to South
America, Asia, and various Eur jpean
cities.
SUNDAY THOUGHTS
f rum Henry Hrtimmond’s • The Greatest Thing
in the World.”
Do not quarrel with your lot iu life.
Do uot complaim of its never-ceasing
cares, its petty environments, the
vexations you tiave to stand, the small
and sordid souls you have to live and
work wjth. Aboye all, do uot reseut
temptation : do not be perplexed be?
cause it seems to thicken rouud you
more and more, and ceases neither for
effort, uor for agouy, nor for prayer.
That is your practice. Tbat is the
practice which ricd — appoints — j-au-t
--aud it is having its work iu making
yon patient, and humble, and gener
ous, unselfish, kind and pourteops.
Do not grudge the hand that is mould
ing tbe still too shapeless image with
iu you. it is growing more beauti
ful although you see it not, and every
touch of temptation may add to its
perfection. jTirrpfore keep in the
midst of life. Do not isolate yourself.
Be among men and among things, and
among troubles, difficulties and ob
stacles. You remember Goethe’s
words: “Talent develops itself iu
solitude—ttie talent of prayer, of
faith, of meditation, of seeing the un
seen : Character grows in the stream
of the world’s life.”
Health and strength carry us through
dangers and make us safe iu the pres
ence of peril. A perfectly strong man
with rich, pure blood has no'hing to
fear from geruis. He may breathe in
the bacilli of consumption with impu
nity. If there is a weak spot where the
germs may find an entrance to tlie tis
sues, then tlie trouble begins. Disease
geruis propagate with lightning-like
rapidity. Once iu the blood, the only
way to get rid of them is to kill them.
This is what Dr. Fierce’s Golden Med
ical Discovery is for. It purities the
blood. That means that it kills the
germs, but that is only part of what it
does. It assists digestion by stimulat
ing the secretion of digestive fluids, so
promoting assimilation aud nutrition;
purities and enriches the blood and so
supplies the tissues with the food they
need. It builds up strong, healthy
tlesh and puts the whole body in a dis
ease-resisting state.

THE ‘‘SPECIAL EDITION MAN."
Mr. George J. Moss, who is known
all over the country as the “Special
Edition Man,” is entitled largely to
the success of The Timk,s Midsummer
Issue. Mr. Moss makes a business of
getting up speeial editions and knows
every detail of its peculiar require
ments. It is a business that calls for
particular qualifications, an artistic
perception, an untiring energy, a
thorough knowledge of newspaper
work and an understanding of the
public taste and preference. All
these Mr. Moss possesses in a marked
degree.
Mr. Moss has issued special editions
in nearly every state in the Union,
but lias been devoting his time to Ala

the highest tributes from the
prpss and people. One of his recent
ambitious efforts was the handsome
illustrated issue of tDo Americus
Times Recorder, pronounetd at the
time, the prettiest paper ever sent out
in Georgia. He li 's been remarkably
successful iu Brunswick, as the size
and excellence of the issue will attest.
“This Midsummer Issue,” said Mr.
Moss yesterifay, “is tine of the largest
and best in which l have yet been in

Mr. Moss has already enough con
tracts in advance to keep him busy
for a year. He is one of the pleasant
est of men, as well as a hard, intelli
gent aud untiring worker, and The
Times is glad to commend him to any
journalistic enterprise with which
he may he in future ass ciated.

WONDERFUL TELEGRAPHY.
All Expert Talks of the Kecent Interna
tional Cable Chess Match.
“I think the public lias not thor
oughly appreciated tlio fact that the
telegraphic work dono in connection
with the recent international chess con
test between members of congress and
the British parliament was in a num
ber of respects the most remarkablo feat
of skill ever accomplished in the history
of telegrahiiig,” said Mr. M. Marean,
manager of the Western Union Tele
graph company.
“It took oil an average only 15 sec
onds to transmit the moves between
Washington and London. During the
two days of the game not a single tele
graphic mistake was made, and the
overland and cable service was without
other than momentary interruption.
The line ran from Washington to Heart’s
Content, Nova Scotia, over the Western
Union system, thence by the Western
Union and Anglo-American Cable com
pany to Valencia, Ireland, thence to the
house of parliament.
“Six operators were engaged in the
work, one at each end of the three
lines. When preparation was being
made for the match, it was questioned
whether moves could be telegraphed as
rapidly as 15 per hour. Tho service
given demonstrated that there might
have been 100 moves an hour, so far as
their transmission over the ocean was
concerned. Of course abbreviations were
used, and no time was lost in sending
either addresses or signatures. ”—Wash

BURIED DURING THE WAR.
Searching In Wisconsin For &*’./>,OOO In
<h>ld Coins.
James Arthur, a veteran of the civil
war, now a resident of .Buffalo, arrived
in Superior, Wis., by steamboat recent
ly to make inquiries concerning a trans
action dating back nearly 40 years. Ac
cording to Mr. Arthur’s story, a bag
containing $05,000 in gold was buried
by a man named Eli Ringers in the year
1801 and has never been discovered to
this day, though several expeditions
have gone in search of it.
Arthur and Piugers were partners in
a bank at La Pointe, which they closed
pud joined the army. Eli Fingers was
killed at the battle of Richmond, Ky.,
014 Aug. 80, 1863. A thorough search
through tho Fingers home in New York
failed to disclose any information con
cerning the location of the hidden treas
ure. After the war Arthur married the
sister of Fingers. He has made several
trips in search of the treasure, but iu
vaiu. Recently, while turning the pages
of au old book which had once been the
property of Eli Piugers, a small piece
of uote paper was found by Mrs. Arthur
which contained a memorandum writ
ten in the handwriting of the dead sol
dier. This note, Mr. Arthur claims, will
no doubt lead to the discovery of the
treasure in time, but the reference it
■;:• -.■ and other—tend—
murks is of little avail now.—St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
4 Beggar's Ingenuity,
At a recent meeting of the Charity
Organization society at Denver the usual
routine reports were varied by an ac
count by the secretary, Mrs. George, of
a girl who came to ask for a decent
dress in which to bury her mother, who
had just died. The secretary’s first im
pulse was to give the dress without fur
ther inquiry, but she decided to follow
her usual plan and investigate. The re
sult was that she found that the story
was a canard and the girl a peculiarly
ingenious impostor.—Rocky Mountain
News.
Fear Drove Colored Folk to Prayer.
A brilliant meteor going southwesf
passed over Troy, S. C., recently aud
exploded with a thundering noise. The
colored people were terribly frightened
aud began praying.
The meteor passed over when people
were returning from a college coin
meneeinpnf. The sparks seemed by fly
from it and strike in the trees. The
noise when the meteor exploded was
like a blast iu a quarry. The air was
filled with thousands of sparks.—New
