PHENOMENON WILL BE INTERESTING
Astronomers Are Making Great Preparations For Observation-Date
In New York
A Washington special says: The forthcoming total eclipse of the sun on May 28 is attracting world-wide attention, and astronomers everywhere have long been making preparations for observing and photographing the phenomenon. Besides making the usual time observations, interest largely centers in photographing the corona, the coronal streamers, the spectra of the chromosphere, and particularly the celebrated flash spectrum appearing

PRICE OF FLOUR TUMBLED.
Chattanooga Millers Get Mad and Reduce Price Fifty Cents Per Barrel.
The cut of 50 cents on the barrel of flour made by one of the Chattanooga mills Thursday created a stir in the city Friday and several hundred barrels changed hands at the reduced price, the millers limiting sales, however, to any one dealer to ten barrels. The cut grew out of a misunderstanding between the mills; a combination having been formed some time ago to keep up the prices. One miller reduced the prices and the other in a page cut 50 per cent lower.
POSITION OF THE PLANETS.

Columbia, Princeton, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Virginia, the University of Chicago, etc.
On May 28th the circular shadow of the moon cast by the sun upon the earth, and about eighty miles in diameter, will come sweeping across the American continent from New Orleans to Cape Henry. Along the centre of the path traveled by this swiftly moving shadow the sun will be completely hidden for a period of about two minutes. More than forty miles away, on either side of the track the eclipse will be partial, not total.
An eclipse of the sun that will be visible can occur only when the moon is new. At that time she passes exactly between the earth and the sun. According to the calculations of Professor Lumsden, the round black shadow of the moon, like a great arm, will sweep in out of space some time after sunrise in the morning of May 28th. This gigantic arm will come in to contact with the earth somewhere near the Revilla Gigado islands in the Pacific ocean. With tremendous velocity the shadow will rush toward the mainland and will enter Mexico, near

The period of totality of the eclipse varies at different points along the track. At the Rocky Mountains the spectacle will last but about thirty seconds, and at New Orleans the period will have been lengthened thirty-seven seconds. At Union Point, Greene county, Ga., the center of the path for the United States, the time of totality will be 92 seconds, while those who are at the Atlantic coast, just south of the city of Norfolk, will be able to continue their observations for 105 seconds.
REEVES MAKES CONFESSION.
Deputy Auditor of the Island of Cuba Admits of Wrong Doing.
A special from Havana says: W. H. Reeves, deputy auditor of the island of Cuba, made a confession at midnight Friday and gave up $4,500 given to him by C. F. W. Neely, the arrested financial agent of posts at Havana, to perform certain services the day he left. General Wood and the postal inspectors refuse to disclose the nature of the confession, barely admitting that one has been made. It is claimed that $1,400 more will be recovered.
General Wood says that the report from Muncie, Ind., that nearly $2,000,000 worth of stamps have been printed there and sent for distribution to Cuban postoffices can be regarded as a canard.
It is believed now that the whole story is known and that the amount of the defalcation will fall between $100,000 and $125,000.
Hoppstad In Possession of Methuen.

ENYOYS HEAR THE NEWS.
Boers Now Visiting Us Are Informed of the Relief of Mafeking.
The first intimation of the relief of Mafeking which came to the Boer envoys now in this country was conveyed to them by a reporter of the Associated Press, who boarded the congressional limited, upon which they were being conveyed to Washington, as it passed through Baltimore. Abraham Fischer, who acted as spokesman for the party, read the dispatches from Pretoria and London carefully, but without show of emotion.
"I have no comment to make at this time," he said.
SAVANNAH. GA., SATURDAY. MAY 26. 1900.
BOERS MEET REBUFF
President McKinley Refuses To Officially Recognize Them.
Altogether the Laudable Mission of the Peace Envoys Seems To Be a Flat Failure.
A Washington special says: Contrary to general expectation, the Boer peace envoys were given a definite answer Monday afternoon to their request that this government intervene in behalf of the twostruggling republics. President McKinley, through his secretary of state, informed them that this government had done everything looking toward intervention or mediation that it proposed to do. The fact that any further efforts on their part to secure action by this government would be futile was carried home to the Boer delegates in a way that apparently leaves no hope for them.
Tarcee of the Boer delegates went to the state department at about half-past 2 o'clock, and were closed with Secretary Hay for just about an hour. Before their conference was completed, Lord Pauncefote, the British ambassador, put in an appearance on the scene and immediately after the departure of the Boers from the secretary's room, he was ushered into Secretary Hay's presence. The secretary and the ambassador had so talk of perhaps ten minutes, and then the secretary went over to the white house. He was with the president half an hour. Returning to the statement depart, he gave out a statement setting forth in full his reply to the delegates.
TURNED DOWN BY SENATE.
TURNED DOWN BY SENATE.
Senator Allen introduced a resolution extending to the visiting Boer delegates the privileges of the floor of the senate, which was tabled when it came up, the vote upon the motion to table being almost entirely a party vote. Senators Allen, Mason and Tillman made strong speeches in favor of the adoption of the resolution, contending that it was simply in line with all precedents. In the course of his speech Senator Tillman declared:
"Now you can' see what a change has come over us as a people. When Kossuth came here two great Republics in congress fought to have him recognized. Today the Republicans on this floor are cowards—cowards, I say, truckling to England and they have disregarded the United States by their miserable, sneaking action."
BULLETS FOR BIOTERS.
A Boy Killed; Threo Men and a Girl Wounded In St. Louis.
One boy was killed and three men and a girl were wounded Monday as a result of the strike in St. Louis.
Martin Zika, eighteen years of age, was struck in the left breast by a bullet fired from a street car, and Conductor Farley and Motorman Joseph Drake have been placed under arrest charged with the killing.
The wounded are: Clarence E. Mullen, motorman, shot in upper portion of left arm; Minnie Krueger, eighteen years of age, struck in left thigh by a glancing bullet.
Two rioters, seen to fall during a fight at Thirteenth and Herbert streets between a mob of 250 men and the police, were carried away by their friends and their names could not be learned.
Zika was shot while standing in the door of his home. A mob of several hundred men had surrounded a car on the Tower Grove line and were threatening the conductor and motorman. A few stones had been thrown when a shot was fired from the car, the bullet striking Zika full in the breast. He died within a few minutes.
CHAMBERS ACTS PARSON.
Ex-Chief Justice of Samon Franches Bea-
national Sermon in Alabama.
Hon. W. L. Chambers, of Alabama, ex-chief justice of Samon, occupied the pulpit at Mount Vernon Place M. E. Church, South, last Sunday night, and prescheated a sensational sermon on the public and political issues of the day. This sermon by a layman dealing entirely with political questions, has created considerable talk in Washington.
BUBOSIC IN 'FRISCO.
Dread Disease Develops In Chinatown But Doctors Not Alarmed.
The board of health of San Francisco has adopted a resolution declaring that bubonic plague exists in that city. While there are no living cases at present, there have been six deaths during the past six months, and they have decided to take precautions against the development and spread of the disease.
A force of physicians went through Chinatown Saturday to treat Chinese with Haffkine prophylactic as a preventive against the plague. The members of the board of health say that there is absolutely no danger of the development of spread of the disease.
BECKHAM WINS IN HIGH COURT
Decision Handed Down In Kentucky Governorship Case.
REFUSES TO HEAR THE CONTEST
Chief Justice Fuller Dismisses the Case For Want of Jurisdiction. Four Justices Dissent.
The supreme court of the United States handed down its decision Monday in the Kentucky governorship case in favor of Democratic Governor Beckham in both the quo warranto and the equity proceedings. For want of jurisdiction the court dismissed the writ of error from the Kentucky court of appeals. The opinion was handed down by Chief Justice Fuller and a vigorous dissenting opinion was delivered by Justice Harlan, the only one to advocate reversal of the Kentucky court's decision. Justices Brewer, Brown and McKenna also dissented from portions of the opinion.
In dismissing the writ of error the chief justice said the court should be the last to overstep the bounds limiting its own jurisdiction and that in the determination of cases of this character, contests for state offices must necessarily be settled by the political branch of 'the government. That branch had acted in the Kentucky case when the general assembly took jurisdiction.
There was no appeal from the assembly's decision, which was favorable to Goeeb and Beckham, except to the tribunal of the people, which tribunal, the chief justice said, was always in session. He also said the case was purely a state case—that Kentucky was in the full possession of its faculties as a member of the union and that there was no emergency at this time calling for interference of the general government to enforce constitutional guarantees or to put down domestic violence. The chief justice quoted numerous decisions holding that public offices are mere agencies or trusts, and not property, as such, nor are the salary and emoluments property secured by contract, but compensation for services actually rendered.
A similar order was entered in the injunction case between the same parties. There were three dissenting opinions. Justice McKenna was the first of the dissentors to be heard. He stated that while he concurred in the result, he was not prepared to say that a public office was not property. Justice Brewer also based his dissent on the point of office as property. He also held the view that the United States courts were not without jurisdiction, but contended that the decision of the Kentucky court should be affirmed instead of dismissing the writ of error. In conclusion Justice Brewer agrees with the court of appeals of Kentucky that upon the award of the assembly no other judgment can be entered than that which sustains it.
Justice Harlan, in his dissenting opinion, quotes various authorities and says that notwithstanding them the decision is that this court has no jurisdiction to inquire whether the citizen has been deprived without due process of law, of an office held by him under the constitution and laws of his state. If the contest between the one holding the office and the person seeking to hold it is determinable by the legislature, in a proscribed mode this court, it appears, cannot inquire whether that mode was pursued and cannot interfere for the professeion of the incumbent, even if the final action of the legislature was confessedly capricious and arbitrary, inconsistent with the recognized principles that belong to due process of law and not based, in any degree, upon the evidence taken in the contest.
Quay Will Run Agalu.
A Philadelphia dispatch says: Matt
B. Quay has announced his candidacy
for re-election to the senate.
TO TANGLE SITUATION.
Governor Smith Also Appoints Senator For Clark Vacancy.
A Washington special says: The appointment of Martin Maginnis for United States senator by Governor Smith of Montana, has not changed the status of the Clark case. The appointment of Clark is recognized even by his enemies as legal.
Unless fraud can be proven, the last appointment was made only to tangle the situation and the only effect it can have will be the reference of the credentials of both men to the committee and there pigeonholed until next session.

KRUGER SEEKS PEACE
Report That Proposition Has Been Made to Salisbury.
MAFEKING RELIEF IS CONFIRMED
Queen Received the "Official" News With Great Gratification and Thankfulness.
A report was received in London Saturday that the Pretoria. government had decided to sue Lord Roberts for peace. While no confirmation of this rumor is at hand, it is generally credited.
Displayed in the most conspicuous style in the London Daily Express of Sunday the dominant war news of the morning in the following editorial statement:
"We have the best reason for stating that in the last twenty-four hours a telegram has been received at the foreign office, addressed personally to the prime minister, from President Krueger, proposing terms of peace. The exact terms of the message cannot be stated, but we believe it is couched in an exceedingly humble strain."
It is inconceivable, of course, that Lord Salisbury can have sent any reply except the one that stands ready on the lip of every Briton—unconditional surrender.
Saturday night's court circular contained the following:
"The queen received on Friday night, with the greatest gratification and thankfulness, the news of the relief of Mafeking after a heroic defense of over seven months, by Baden-Powell and troops under his command."
The significance of this, which refers to the receipt by her majesty of a copy of the Associated Press Pretoria dispatch, is that it is the first official intimation of the relief of Mafeking, and it would not have been made had any doubts existed in the official mind as to the correctness of the news.
The boisterous rejoicing over the reports from Mafeking have become riots in parts of London, Aberdeen and Belfast and elsewhere in the United Kingdom.
GRANT STATUE UNVEILED
In Great Rotunda of Capital With Elaborate Ceremonies.
The statue of General Grant, presented by the Grand Army of the Republic to the nation, was unveiled in the great rotunda of the capitol at Washington Saturday and elaborate ceremonies commemorative of the event were held in the hall of representatives in the presence of a vast concourse of people who included the widow, daughter and descendants of the general, hundreds of his comrades in arms, the officers and committees of the Grand Army of the Republic prominent in military and social circles.
The statue represents the contributions of thousands of his comrades, none of whom was allowed to subscribe more than 15 cents, and is the result of a movement started shortly after General Grant's death at Mt. McGregor, July, 1885.
The unveiling took place shortly before noon in the presence of Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Sartoris, the officers of the Grand Army of the Republic, Speaker Henderson and Senator Frye, president pro tem, of the senate.
In the senate the Grant ceremonies were also held. After a handsome enlogy by Mr. Harris, Mr. Turley, of Tennessee, delivered a notable address from the view point of a private soldier in the ranks of the Confederate army and his tribute was brilliant.
At 2:30 p. m. the ceremony of accepting the statues of Benton and Blair from Missouri began, the other business of the senate being laid aside.
Alabama Democratic Committee.
A conference was held in Birmingham, Ala., Saturday, between the Democratic executive committee and the nominees of the Democratic party for the various state offices and electors. A campaign committee headed by F. L. Pettus, of Selma, was named.

BOER ENVOYS ARE WELCOMED
Unofficial Reception In Their Honor at Washington.
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS PRESENT
Patriotic Addresses Supporting the Cause of the Burghers Delivered By Various Speakers.
An audience, remarkable for its size, sympathy and enthusiasm, greeted the Boer envoys at the reception given in their honor Sunday night at the Grand opera house. Washington City, under the auspices of the congressional and citizens' committee.
Long before the time for the meeting to open, the house was crowded to suffocation and many were turned away unable to gain admittance.
While official Washington was not represented in any manner, there were probably thirty members of the senate and the house occupying seats in the auditorium and on the stage. Speaker Henderson was in one of the boxes, and others present were Senators Daniel of Virginia, Teller, Tillman, Pettigrew, Mason and Wellington, Representatives, Shaffroth, Atwater, Slayer, Glynn, Ruppert, Gaines, Latimer, Lents, Sulzer, Landis, Litsney, Ryan, Greene, Henry of Massachusetts, Hay, DeArmond, Clark of Missouri, Meirs and Rhea of Kentucky.
One of the boxes, it was stated, had been reserved for the president, a committee having 'been sent to the white house with tickets of admission to the opera house, but no representative of the president's official household was on hand.
Chairman Sulzer, of the reception committee, presided, and a number of addresses, all of them patriotic in character and earnestly supporting the cause of the Boers, were made, the speakers including Messrs. Fischer, Wolmarans and Wessels, the Boer envoy; Senator Wellington, Hon. Bourke Cockran, of New York, and Mr. Sulzer.
Chairman Sulzer was the first speaker. After welcoming the envoys and emphatically stating that the occasion was non-partisan and non-political in character, he said in part:
"England now and always has been the aggressor. The Boers will never aurrender their love of liberty. They can only be conquered by being exterminated, and England must not be permitted to exterminate them and steal their homes. Her criminal march of devastation must and will be checked."
The three enjoys were introduced in turn by Mr. Sulzer and each of them was given a cordial reception. Their remarks were listened to with close attention. The audience gave a standing greeting to Commissioner Fischer, who told his hearers why the enjoys had come to this country and what they hoped to accomplish. His remarks were very much in keeping with what he already has said in published interviews.
"We have come across the seas from $ \pi $o different republics," said he, "to see whether here in the hearts of the people of a greater sister republic the spirit of more than a hundred years ago is still alive, whether the sentiment that caused its people to take up arms to obtain its freedom is strong enough to recognize the feeling possessed by us. We come to you as a great liberty loving people in whom the sense of justice and fair play is strong, and look to you to find a practical scheme to obtain peace with justice.
"We come to appeal to your people and speak to you as brother Republicans and to ask for a hearing, and hope to obtain it. The receptions which we have been given have been most gratifying to us ever since we have set foot on your shoes. There is no doubt, from assurances received from all parts of the country that the sympathy of the people is with us. We look to you to help us, if possible, and whether we get assistance or not we appreciate the kindly feeling which has been manifested for us."
TO PAY WAR LOSSES.
Important Bill Relating to Civil Struggle Passed In House.
For the first time since the civil war the house Fridgy passed a measure to pay Confederate soldiers for losses growing out of the civil war. It was a bill introduced by Mr. Cox, of Tennessee, to pay the Confederate soldiers who surrendered at Appomattox for the loss of horses and other personal effects taken from them in violation of Lee's capitulation to Grant by which officers and men of Lee's army were allowed to retain their baggage, side arms and horses.
The bill originally carried $200,000, but the specific sum was stricken out.

Tax Montgomery conference will
be the resultant of much good.
All of the speakers at the
conference were not against the
Negro. He had the strongest advo-
cates who completely knocked out
the prejudiced and impracticable ar-
gaments made by those spared to
him. Even Bourke Cochran who
advocates the repealing of the Fif-
teenth Amendment to the constitu-
tion of the United States, for cer-
tain reasons, was manly enough to
admit that the Negro is progressive.
The southern dailies in a spirit of
narrowness refused to publish the
full address, or publish in part what
was said sommentaory of the Ne-
gto. The Negro is willing to let his
record be dissected, and when itis
done no fairminded pereon can say
other than commend him for what
he has done for himself in these few
years of freedom, a freedom in part
only for-some of them. While the
Negro should feel concilliated to a
certain extent for the progress he
has made, he should not be satisfied
with it, He must remember that
the eyes of the civilized world are
upon him, that more is expected of
him now than at any other time and
that he can not afford to make a
mistake, or a failure.
OX account of the recent tragedy
in Angusta, the street railway Co ha:
resumed its discrimination between
the races, the whites are compelled
to ride in front and the colored in
the rare seats. Without any orgau-
ized understanding, but with a spirit
ofindignation. The colored citizens
have refused to patronize the cars
The Company endeavored to sepa-
rate the races some two yearsago but
was boycotted by the colored citizens,
and had to abelish the order. The
boyoott this time will be more effect-
ive, It may bea hardship on some
of our people to keep off of the cars,
‘There is a principle underlying
the entire affair, and this principle
must be upheld. If itis npheld ef-
fectively it, will greatly benefit our
people.
There isa similar state of affairs
in Atlanta. The colored citizens
are not riding on the cars.
Tf the street car company can of-
ford to do without the patronage of
the colored patrons, why then the
colored patrons can better afford to
walk, rg they can’t do without the
patronage of the colored patrons let
each company in the atate & before
the next legislatare and have the
nefarious law repealed. If this 18
not done and diecrimination is used
the colored people will do as they
did before there were street cars.

United States will begin in all parts
of the country June 1, and end ir

But as many persons and families
will be away from their homes dur.
ing June there is some Uanger that
such persons will not be counted. If
they are not counted, the locality in
which they live will be misrepresen-
ted to that extent, and in some cases
this misrepresentation may _ be
enongh to affect the representation
in Congress of the State from which
ey come. Local pride and state
pride, therefore, should influence all
such absentees to take reasonable
precautions against being omitted
from enumeration in their places of

likely to occur inthe large cities
where families close their homes and

WHAT LYNCHING DOES.
It Shows the Low State of
> Worals of Participants.
{ The regent Hla of wee
white man named Aleck Whitney
and the lynching of s young colored
man named William Wilson for the
|erime at Augnsta, Ga, Inst week is
one of the most deplorable that ever
occurred in Georgia, owing to the
character and social standing of both
the victims, and the comparatively
trifling incident which led up to the
shorrible affair. The mere dispute over
aseat in astreet car, as the public
; knows, hes blotted ont two young
lives, disgraced a city, and caused a
: bitter feeling of antagonism between
‘the races‘in 3 community that hae
boasted of its goodness, culture and
civitization. =
Had the law Ween + permitiea to
take its course after the killing of
young Whitney, and it was shown
that young Wilson had a concealed
deadly weapon on his person and
shot his young antagonist to death,
the colored people of Augusta and
of Georgia would have been a unit
for a swift and sure infliction of the
highest penalty known to the law
for such an aggravated offense. But
unfortunately the heinious crime of
the mob has destroyed forever all
opportunity of arriving at any satis-
factory knowledge as to the truth of
the killing of young Whitney, for it
has been*openly stated in Augnsta
that no pistol was taken from Wil-
son'nor has any been found at the
place of, the ‘shooting, but to the
contrary it has been atated that Wil-
gon’s pistol was at his home when
Whitney was shot. Be that ss yt
may a grand joy composed of “the
best citizens” of Richmond county
haa declared its inability,to find any
evideuce as to the perpetrators of the
crime of murdering young Wilson
in the woods after he was taken from
the officer on a train a few miles
from Angusta, thu3 forever closing
the avenues of a legal investigation
of the whole matter.
| ‘The proper officers of the law in
Angusta, whose duty it is to arrest
and safely keep persons charged with
crime, has shown the greatest cow-
ardice in not keepin; heir prisoner
by defeuding the id at all bazarde
against the mob who would take the
law into its own hand—indeed it
looks like the officers played into the
hands of the mob, to the burnin?
shame and disgrace of one of the
fairest anit greatest cities in our
State.
But despite the grand jury and
the officers of the law, the light of
truth has shown ‘the low state of
morals and civilization of the men
who composed the mob of lynchera.
When the naeepenets say that Wil-
son was Jynched by the friends and
associates of foun Whitney who
wagdya “church member,” and a
“member of the Y.M.C. A.” This
mob then jrenumably. good young
men-kept their wretche prisoner in
the woodsall night, and bis body was
found in the morning most horribly
mutilated. Who can tell of the hor-
rors of that night! ‘There could be
no motive for mutilating adead body
such a was committed on the per-
son of Wilson; therefore he was tor-
tured, it is presumed, while alive
and conscious of pain and guffering.
HIS BOMY MUTILATED.
The eare, nose, and fingers were in
time hacked from the helpless pris-
yner, & cross was gashed on his fore-
nead and breast, and as if this devil-
nent was not enough the monsters
erformed a most atrocious and
vsmelees act of mutilation upon
heir helpleas_and lingering victim,
sho was then hang by the neck and
1is body riddled by bullets, and his
veadl beaten to a jelly.
The “good” young men then re-
urned totheir homes, and the virtu-
us grand jury has declared its ini-
ility to secure satisfactory evidence
n which to bring in an indictment
gainet any individual members con-
erned in the lynching of Wilson
rhich they denounced as inexcusable
The good people of Augusta owe
tto themselves, to public opinion
nf to civilization to aee that this
arbarous band of mob monsters are
jounded down and bronght« to jus- |
ice, and thus clear away the foul
lot that now disgraces their city. |
‘Tue way seems dark and gloomy
attimea for our people, but that
should not cause them to feel pessi-
mistic. There is a silver lining to
every clond and all that we have to
do isto wait and labor patiently
with a full intention to come out

Pythagoras tote celebrated it
25th. ausiversary Thuraday night.
Within the pust ten months four
chapters of the Order of the Eastern
Star have been set up and other

master will be present, and besides
the parade an addregs will be deliy-
ered, The night before the ladies of
Mt. Temah will be organized into a
chapter of the Order of the Eastern

Asa good set-off to the extravag-
ant ideas of some ritualists about
rigidity of work, read the following,
which ig said to have actually occur-
red: A lodge in Indiana was presided
over bya faster who had an exag-
gerated notion of disciphne. One
night he had met his Lodge in call-
ed smusting not a member absent to
instruct them in the work. each-
ing them the ee of the gavel, he had
ie called them up with three
‘nocks when he leaned too far back,
fell saninat the window that was be-
hind him, fell through, fell to the
ground four stories, and broke his
neck. Picked up the next morning,
he was buried decently; but nots
Mason came to the funeral.
More strange atill, not a Mason
appeared in that village. It was in-
explicable, forty women left wid-
ows, two hundred and twenty child-
ten left orphans, eighty four merch-
ante left in the lurch with unpaid
bills. Twenty years after that eome-
body went up in that fourth story,
broke open the door. and beheld the
Lodgea Lodge of skeletons ! Strange
but true; they had rigidly obeyed the
W. M. and awaiting for the knock to
seat them, had starved to death.
Each was standing in an attitude of
respectful attention, looking to the
East, and had not the pitying citi-
zens taken them down and tenderly
Temoved them, they would have been
standing there yet. Such is life—

To the Committee on Electors sppointed b;
the Republican State Convention,
Gextieaan :
I take this means of notifying you that a
the Sixth District Republican Convention, ]
was nominated as presidential elector.
The State Convention that met subsequent
tothe meeting of the Sixth District, em-
powered you to name electors.
Thavenow to offer my declination to
serve as elector, thereby leaving you free to
elect a man in my*place. Yours respectful-
ly, , Twos. #1. Matonz.
‘The foregoing card of Mr. Malone
is to be greatly commended. It
shows that fe bows to the will of the
State convention, notwithstanding
the fact that his district had select-
ed him as its Presidential elector. It
shows that he ie a true party man in
recognizing the highest party au-
thority of his State and he will be
remembered for his loyalty and his
fidelity.
Editor Cheeks no More.
Befure the summer’s seorohing
sun had begun its parching rays, af-
ter winter's blizzards and falling
.snowe, atgthe zenith of spring whyle
flowers are blooming, the trees bud-
ding and the merry birds singing,
the soul of Rev. R. Milton Cheeks,
D. D., passed from earth and return-
ed to the God who gave it. ,
| He finiehed his work early in life,
having been a hard worker for sev-
eral years. He pastored many char-
ges in various parts of the country
and made such an impression by his
good work that the General Confer-
ence at Wilmington, N.C., in 1896
recognized his ability by electing
him editor of the Southern Christian
Recorder. He took immediate
charge and with the assistance of
his excellent wife made the power of
the Recorder felt all over this coun-
try.
On Tuesday of Inst week the Con-
ference re-elected him editor by uc-
clamation—an honor which few
General officers receive ‘I'he glad
news was telegraphed Mrs. Cheeks
jin Atlanta, but Senniley last she re-
ceived the sad tidings that her hus-
band was no more. He was taken

Rev. John Crolly is a hard worker. For weeks he has been conducting meetings under a tent in Yamacraw. He has arranged to erect a house of worship in the same vicinity as a branch of his church.

The Fifteenth Amendment Celebrated by Citizens. The annual May parade of the First Battalion Infantry. Georgia State Troops, colored, took place on Monday afternoon last. The Companies assembled at the usual place and marched through some of the principal streets to the park where a short rest was bad, after which the battalion went through its parade and review.
Each company was out in its full strength, and made an appearance that would have done credit to the regulars. The march was excellent and the movements showed much practice. The discipline was good and in fact everything went to show that able officers are in command.
The Georgia Artillery also paraded and made a commendable appearance. The company was commanded by Lt. J. F. Andrews. On account of the absence from the city of Col. Deveaux, the battalion was commanded by Capt. H. N. Walton, with the following companies and commanders: Co. A, Capt. W. J. Pinckney: Co. C, Capt. Nelson Law; Co. D, Lt. Julius Maxwell; Co. F, Lt. R. L West. Cos. B, being in Atlanta, and E, in Macon, were excused from parading. Lt. J. H. Bugg, Inspector of Rifle Practice, made his first appearance as a member of the staff and looked every inch a soldier.
Col. Deveaux has appointed a full set of staff officers some of whom were unable to be out, but will be in a position to do so by the next parade The companies of the battalion are being placed in first class condition in every respect. Each company has recently received from the State twelve dollars and fifty cents for the first month's armory rent, which will be paid quarterly hereafter. The State has also furnished the companies forty uniforms each. A part of these uniforms arrived this week. Uniforms for the five members of the non commissioned staff of the battalion are also furpished by the State.

Food is Repulsive
the stomach that is irritated and sensitive. Nervous disorders of the brain irritate the stomach nerves making it weak and easily deranged. That's why so many people who suffer from headache have weak stomachs. All nervous troubles, whether of the brain, stomach or heart yield most readily to
Dr. Miles' Nervine.
"Starting from a small spot in my brain the pain would steadily increase until it seemed that my head would split open, would be deathly sick at the stomach, would vomit terribly and many times have from 24 to 30 hours without food or drums. After suffering from these spells for 13 years was completely cured by six bottles of Dr. Mile. Nervine." MRS. J. M. WHITE, Williamston, Mich. As Jiny Stone.

MOST FAMOUS PRACTICAL JOKER.
Somo of the Explolts of Vivier, the Eecen-

‘Tho death, announged from Nice, at
the ago of seventy-ning, of tho famous
horn-player and practical joker, Eagenc
Leon Vivier, will recall stories of a
man who figured largely in London
and Parisian society in the early days
of the Third Empire, Vivier was a
magniflcent solo horn-player, but Le
was even more rémarkabloas a humor-
ist. His practical jokes may scom
rathor stupid now, but io their day
they woro the talk of Europe. Oneol
them was to tio a young calf on the
second floor balcony of his bouso, ea
that a crowd assemblod and blocks}
up tho street, Vivier’s oxcnso was
that he hated to see boys hurrying on
their errands, and adopted this plan
to tempt them toloiter. Then ho kept
tho calf ix his rooms so long that it
grew into a bullock, aud when the
police interfered they found it impos-
sible to get tho animal downstairs.
Vivier inyentod a plan of mixing
gum with soap, for the mannfacture

frantically out of tho house, his hand-
kerchief fo his eyes, sobbing as though
his heart would break? In aa omni-

The Weekly Nowspaper.
In commenting on the low subserip
tion price asked for the average weekly
newspaper, the Atlanta, Constitutiot
remarks editorially:
That many weekly"wowspaper pub-
lishers haye committed » grave mis.
take in dropping their prices of sub-
scription, must now be as evident te
themselves as it is to others, No
doubt the idea was caught from an im:
pression that, weekly isscs from
large cities wero spld at a lower price,
and that thero waa rivalry to bomet.
In the first plage there was no rival-
ry, sittce that wa a physical ,impossi-
tility, Ths weghly newspaper t9 the
chronicle of the local connnunity, just
as the city paper is that of the whole
country. It wonld be as preposterous
for the city paper to attempt to fill
the field of the looal paper as it would
be for the latter to replace the former.
Their aims and missions are different,
aud inno way can they displace each
otber.
‘The weckly newspaper results from
tho eristouco of a Iceal community
which bas business vebtzree, political
ideas and social ventures of its own.
The more important these interests are
the more perfectly the newspaper he-
comes their exponent, the more indis-
pensible it is to the people. There-
fore, a comthunity which will not sup-
port its local newspaper ‘farnishes but
mighty poor campaigning ground for
the city paper. The latter comes in
as au addenda to a good work which
is already going on, as an evidenco of
a sharpened appetito for reading.
‘The first duty of every progressive
community is to havo its local uewspa-
per, which should be liberally sup-
ported, and which should not be held
in competition with any city publica-
tion,
A poor representation would reflect
upon the town; a good appearance
gives the town character abroad.
What, then, does the community owe
the publisher? Certainly {t owes him
that return which wonld havo to be
given to the lanyer, the commercial
man or any cther public servant.
‘The weekly newspaper publishers
should awake to their miesion and in-
sist upon the eupport which is their
due. ‘The town which does not sup-
port ifs local paper has no claim to
consideration either at home or abroad,
