J. M. Terreit will bo the next governor
wf thestate. He has been found faithful
sand worthy in every trust and so has
deen thus signally called to the high
st office In the gift of his fellow clti-
zens of Georgia. ‘
Hon. O. B, Stevens, the present com-
aaissioner of, agriculture, will be al-
most unanimously nominated when the
eonyention reaches his case.
Hon. Tom Eason has been indorsed
cwith a se ipee reelection. Ha is
popular alld has been so effictént as
one of the pricon commisstoners az to
obtain thes renewed mark of approval
trom the democracy of the stato.
The defeat of State School Commis
sioner Glenn was the surprise of the
catzpatgn. It was realized that be
h «i the hardest fight, perhaps, of ary
af the state “house officials to whom
opposition developed. but his friends
mever fot 2 moment doudted that he
would be successful; in fact, they
scemet to have unbounded conf-
dency that he would carry more than
uc ugh counties to give him the noml-
r.tion on the first ballot,
Tho race for state school ,commis-
stoner, however, was a hard fought one
from the start. At the beginning of
tho campaign thero were four candi-
dates, Professor Glenn, Rey. A. J
“Beck, of DeKalb county; Dr. Mark
Johuston, of Baldwin, and Professor
W. B. Merritt, of Lowndes. A little
more than a month ago Mr. Beck with-
Qrew from the race and urged his
friends and supporters to go to Mer
rith This may account for part of tha
‘urexpected strength Merritt developed
Foxrard the close of the campaign.
It has been charged that unusual
‘clements entered into the campaign
for thls office. These reports concern
book publishers who were sald to have
some ccep Interest in the result of the
race, and they have been referred to’
on several occasions in the cards writ-
ten during tne campaign by different
candidates. What effect, if any, these
elements had on the result, ts un-
known, though there is little doubt
they will be held, in,part, to account
for, it. >

who, With Hon. Dupont Guerry, of
Bibb, was defeated for the democratic
nomination for governor of Georgla

Chafrman E. T. Brown, of the stst¢
democratic executive c6iiiilitee, a for-
mal protest 6{ the result of the pri-
matty.
In making his prtest Colonel Estill
names twenty counties in which he
alleges irregularities occurred. Ii five
of the counties mentioned specific
charges are made, willé in the remain-
ing fitter’ the charge of illegality is
ReWelil and:Is based on what the pro-
testant “deems to be reliable Informa-
tion.”
The receipt of the protest by Chair-
man, Brown Wednesday afternoon
created 4 sensation in po'ltical circles.
Chairman Brewn states that Colonel
Estill’s protest will be duly transmit
ted to the state convention when that
body meets in July. In his protest
Colonel Estill asks the state commlt-
tee to order a recount in the counties
where he alleges that Irregularities oc-
curred. Chairman Brown statetl that
the committeé was nét vested with
such authority and that It was bis
duty to refer tte protest to the con-
Yention.
The five counties, as to the vote of
Which specific charges are made, are
Cobb, Banks, Laurens, Jefferson and
*rattnall, Of these ait biit the twe
first, Cobb and Bahks, went for Guer-
ty.
‘The protest claims that in Cobb the
chairman of the county committee, J.
N. Gantt, Issued a circular to the effect
that no ballots would be counted tin.
less each ballot had his name as chalr-
man thereon, :
The charge as to Banks county Is
that ‘tickets were printed and ¢irculat-
ed on which the names ot Guerry and
Estill had been erased. fn Laurens It
Js alleged that one precinct was not
counted, the protestant etating his be-
lief that a ful! count would have given
him the county.
It Is cHarged that In Tattnall, in one
precinct the manager refused to open
the polls because there was no one
present to represent Mr. Guerry.
Colonel Estill's last specific charge
Js that in Jefferson one or more pre-
elncts closed before the hour pre
scrived by-law.

ed by Colonel Estill that irregularities
occurred: Emabuel, Towns, Union,
White, Dawsoh, Washington, Murray,

vention: Banks, Towns, Union, White,

jer, Fannin and Colquitt.
The three following counties men-
tioned In the protest gave Terrell four

SCHEME IS EXPOSED
Sugar Combine Backing Cuban
Reciprocity Measures.
GENERAL WOOD IS IMPLICATED
Witness Thurber “Lets Cat Out of the
Bag’ In Testimony Before Sen-
ate Committee—Disclosures
© Create Sensation,
“Greate Sensation,
| A Waibidgtsd apeclal savas Fuad
ot the military gaverhment 1A Cuba,
‘combined ‘with tontributions of sugar
trust magnates, have been used In a
systematle effort to shape public opin-
Jon in the United States in favor of a
reduction of the tariff upon Cuban pro-
ducts. This remarkable fact was ac-
knowledged before the senate com-
mittee of Cuban affairs Wednesday by
F. B. Thurber, who was the leader of
the movement in behalf of Cuban re-
eiprocity, Mr, Thutber, who ts presi-
dent of what Is known as tlle Uilited
Btates Expirt Association and who has
‘claim@d that his only Interest in Cuba
was a8 3 member of that association
and an American merchant, was foréed
under cross-examination of Senator
Teller to acknowledge that he has
been In the employment of the Cuban
government.
It as all the time been claimed by
advocates of the bill that the vast
amount of literature in favor of a re-
duction of the tariffs upon the pro-
ducts of Cuba had been paid for by the
Cuban platiters, 3
Several efforts have been made to
get Mr. Thurber before the committee
which is Investigating the Guban sugar
Situation, but it was not untit Senator
Teller had’ threatened to demand of
the senate that he be brought upod
warrant that he appeared to testify.
Senator Teller, who {s forcing the
fight for the democratic sugar growers,
sprung a surprise upon the other mem-
bes of the committee and upon Mr.
Thurber by producing a copy of @
voucher which shows his receipt for
$2,800 pald him by the United States
militaty government of the Island of
Cub. Mr. Thurber was forced to ac-
krowledge that three other bills sim!-
lat te this had beeit rendered by him
and that all had Been paid. Senator
Teller stuck his probe in deeper and
forced from Mr. Thurber the further
acknowledgement that hé had received
$2,500 from Mr, Havemeyer, of the su-
gar trust, and he thought that $20,000
worth of literature had been circulated
In the interest of Cuba in the United
States. This was’ paid for largely by
the sugar trust andcthe military goy-
ernment.
These disclosutes have proved the
greatest sensation sittce the Cuban !n-
vestigation began. It is the general
bellef that the result will be disastrous
to the reciprocity bill, Senators who
have opposed the bill regard the ac-
knowledgment of sugar trust support
as proof of all they have claimed about
the sugar trust being the chicf benc-
ficlary of the proposed reduction upon
raw sugar. They strongly critl-
cise the use of the money of the Cuban
military government and General
Wood comes In for a fair share of thé
criticism.
Senator Teller and his associates
say they are but just at the beginn{ng
of the investigation and claim they
will be able to show that some-of the
officials of this government who have
been most active In behalf of the re
ciprecity bil have acquired interesta
in sugar plantations in Cuba under the
belief that they would be benefited by
the legislation.
The house committee on military af-
fairs refused the other day to report
Mr. Bartlett's reeolution calling .for
such figurés, although General Wood
was quoted ‘as favoring th¢ir’ produc-
tion. Senator Culberson introduced a
similar resolution Wednesday, and it
fs belleved that the democrats and
beet sugar republicans will be able to
force Its adoption.

In the absence of any official advices
on the Subject, the officials in Wash-

ported in the St, Thomas dispatch.
_Getindity has a4 big claim against
Vereduela, approximating 6,000,000
Bolivéres. Gne infterence—there ts nd
SMeldi informatioi—is that Germeny
has"sent her vessels to La Guayra to
enforce the payment of the claim, as
Venezuela bas not attempted to’mect
the obligation.
The diplomatic correspondence of
the state department shows that Ger-
many has considered tHe question of
coercion in connection with the pay-
ment of the claim. A communication
trom the German embassy of Decem-
ber 20 last has this to say on the sub-
ject! Te 7
“in case the ,Geimaii Sovernmetit
should -be obliged to use coerciod
against Venezuela In connection with
the pending claims It will have to be
considered what kind of méasurcs
sphoul be adopted. The mast important
measure of coerclon—that is the block-
ade of Venezuelan harbors—wouid
have to be carried through without 2
declaration of war preceding it. A
blockade, therefore, would be a peace
blockade. Such a b'ockade would
touch lkewise the ships of neutral
powers, Inasmuch ag such ships, al-
théligh @ coufiscatloa of them would
not have to be considered, would have
to be turned away and prohibited until
the blockade should be raised. In the
sitie mahner European states have
proceeded on such occasions, especial-
ly England and France.”
It is not believed that the United
States government would raise any ob-
jectlon should Germany undertake the
blockade of Venezuelan ports to col:
lect the claim of the Berlin company,
as the president in his last message to
congress made the following observa-
tion on the Monroe doctrine: “We do
not guarantee any state against pun-
ishment {f it mlsconducts itself, pro-
vided that punishment does not take
the form of the acquisition of territors
by any non-American power.”

filed with Roosevelt charges of per-
‘niclous poiltical activity. against four
‘federal office holders, who are Hanna’s
men,
Mr. Noogevelt was yery much sur-
prised nd {mpressed by the formal
chargs, but promised no action at the
time. He eit fot Senator Hanna and
asked him if the four men Were guilty.
Senator Hanna replied that hé had
gravo doubts about it. The-pres{dent

the senator urged him strongly not to
do so, iiisisting that it was not a viola-
tion of orders for federal officeholdera

one locomotive, seven cars of lumber,
eight small dwelling houses, and a mil-
Hon and a halt feet of lumber. The

Words of Commendation.
Words of Commendation.
Mr. Arthur Dilworth of this city clerk at headquarters of the Twenty fifth Infantry, sent us the following circular issued by the late colonel of the regiment. These words come directly from one who has been with this well-known regiment of Negro troops and and he must undoubtedly know what he is speaking about:
Headquarters 25th U. S. Infantry, Malabon, Rizal, P. I., April 17, 1902. "To the Officers and Soldiers, 25th U. S. Infantry, no longer I am no longer Colonel of the 25th Infantry. I can hardly tell you how great a grief this is to me. For ten years I have had the proud privilege of boasting that "I am Colonel of one of the best regiments in the United States Army, the 25th Infantry." This is no idle boast. It is based on your splendid record in the past. An answer to your question is that you, "This is the finest body of soldiers I have seen in the United States Army."
The Inspector-General on his late visit to these Islands, said to several of our officers. "The 25th Infantry is the best regiment" have seen in the Philippines. At Davao, they were in the 25th rifle practice, the regiment awed the field. The Missouis battalion is probably the first and only one in the United Army that could and has drilled by trumpet calls alone. That you are as gallant as the best, remember El Caney, O'Donnell, in Zambales, and Zambales! One Provides in Luzon that was absolutely cleaned up of ladrones, and insurectes, this by your untiring efforts night and day, marching and fighting in and out of the rainy season that was a grand piece of good soldiering, comrades, that I will tell that story on all public and private occasions. To the men, not the least to be proud of is your record of good behavior in these Islands, proving that your race is as law abiding as any in the many places where the 25th Infantry is stationed on these Islands that the inhabitants were not genuinely sorry when we have been ordered to leave their towns. For that matter, the same is true of your姿姿 in the states. In conclusion, I desire that you be a memorable fine record in the past and to see the future that we all will be proud of the Twenty-Fifth Infantry. Good Bye
Brigadier General, U.S Army
Late Colonel, 25th US Infantry

Reduced rates have been granted by most of the great passenger associations of the country, including the Southeastern Passenger Association from which territory most of the delegates will most likely come. The Boston and Chicago Business Leagues are arranging to run special sleeping car trains through Richmond.
Excellent Showing. I had the pleasure last week of visiting the city of Birmingham, Ala., and the enterprise and thrift shown by our people on business lines were a revelation, particularly so when compared with Savannah which affords so many more and greater opportunities than Birmingham. First of all I visited the banking house of the Alabama Penny Saving and Loan Co., and was shown many courtesies by its able officers in the persons of President Dr. W. R. Pettiford, Vice-President P. F. Clark Cashier B. Hudson. This concern occupies its own three story brick building on the main business street of the city and it possesses all the conveniences and facilities for the safe and proper conduct of its immense business.
The deposits with this bank amount to nearly $100,000 which shows that the company and its officers have the confidence and support of their community. This bank has been doing business for twelve years and the results of its work, and the inspiration given by its success and financial assistance is demonstrated in the numerous business establishments conducted most successfully by our people.
You can find colored business houses all over the city and its numerous anuburbs, in all lines of business giving employment to hundreds of our young people and prestige, and recognition to their proprietors in the business world. It is this same spirit of confidence and combination that we need in this community, that it will be felt and enjoyed by the most humble citizen. The question is, shall we sit still, divided, and be forever crushed down or shall we bestir ourselves with a united rank, and prosper as the proverbial Rose of Sharon.

REV. T. B. LILLARD, PASTOR, FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
The Rev. Thomas B. Lillard, who has accepted a call to the pastorate of the First Congregational Church of this city, is a native of Maryville, Tenn. After having prepared himself for college at his native town, he taught school for five years near Knoxville; Tenn. During three of these years, he conducted the County Normal for teachers of Blount, County, Tenn.
After this period of educational work, he resumed his studies, entering the college department of Maryvill College, from which he graduated with honor, May 26, 1898. The theme of his graduating oration was "Our Foreign Policy," upon which he rendered a very excellent discourse. Mr. Lillard was the only colored member of the graduating class of Maryville College, for that year, and has the distinction of being the last colored student to graduate from that college.
Maryville College, like Berea College in Kentucky, practiced coeducation of the races up to 1900. In 1900 the legislature of Tenn., prohibited co-education of the races by statute, so that colored students are no longer admitted.
After graduation, Mr. Lillard taught school for one year at St. Augustine School, Raleigh, N. C. At the expiration of this time, he entered upon his theological studies, matriculating at Auburn, Theological Seminary, Auburn, N. Y., where he completed junior year. He then entered Hartford Theological Seminary, one of the greatest theological schools of this country, from which he graduated May 28, last. His graduating thesis was "The Composite Character of the Logia." Mr. Lillard is noted as a scholar and is recognized by the professors and students of Hartford Theological Seminary as being an exceptionally brilliant man. He comes to us with the highest praise as well as being well prepared and equipped for duties as pastor of the First Congregational Church: The pastors of the First Congregational Church have all been very intellectual men; the Rev. Thomas B. Lillard will not be an exception to that rule. He is expected here about June 22.
Success Club Notes.
Onward march seems to be the watchword of the club and every member apparently is on the alert for our advancement.
The night school question was discussed at length in a meeting of the Executive Board and all necessary arrangements have been made for it. It will open Monday night to the public and as it is advertised will be for ambitions men and women who desire an education. Mr. W. du H. Brown was elected principal and Mr. Chas. H. Green, assistant. These young men will do everything in their power to inspire the students of the night school in every way from a classical point of view. Instruction will be given in the English and Normal courses.
We hope that every young man who desires an education will take advantage of this opportunity; many applications have been made and everything looks bright for a complete success. Preparation is being made for our initial literary entertainment and we again cordially invite the public to be present. Those who have been elected as members of the Success Club Council will be officially notified within the next few weeks. We feel quite sure that none of those elected will object to serve struggling young men in this capacity. Mr. E. W. Houstoun who has been attending Atlanta University was with us on Tuesday night and made an excellent address which was highly enjoyed.
Second Baptist Church.
At 10 a. m. last Sunday the funeral services of Mr. Henry Pollard took place at the Second Baptist church of which he was a member. The pastor Dr. Durham, spoke feelingly of the life and character of Mr. Pollard. His death was quite a shock to his friends as he was ill only a very short time. The Odd-Fellows turned out in large numbers, of which fraternity he was also a member. The pastor preached two impressive sermons morning and evening, and in the afternoon administered the Lord's supper.
Mrs. Durham and Master Johnnie left on Tuesday for Edgefield, S. C. and will gone for the summer.
The doctor is also in attendance upon the Baptist General Missionary and Educational Convention at Macon this week. The church excursion around the harbor last Monday was well patronized although the weather was very unfavorable for such an outing.
The Sunday school under the superintendence of deacon R. M. Davis, supported by a corps of earnest and competent teachers, is doing a great work. The teachers of this school are instructed on the lesson by the pastor every Friday night and go to their classes on Sunday well prepared to teach it.
St. James A. M. E. Church was honored by having Dr. H. T. John son of Philadelphia to preach for us Sunday night. The choir ladies of St. James church will give a picnic on the first Monday night in July. Mesdames Larkins, Nobles, Waters, Godfrey, Williams, and Sailes, Secretary of the occasion. We are asking all the ladies and gentlemen to come out and take a part with us. I know you will be well pleased with the picnic. We will have speakers for the occasion. Mrs. Alexander will deliver the welcome address. This will be the first picnic of the kind ever given at St. James, Rev. A. Cooper, Pastor.
Bolton Street Church.
Rev, Williamson will preach to morrow on "Christ praying for his enemies" At night his subject will be "Christ bruised and sinners healed" Rev. S. E. Gore of Atlanta will be in the city on Tuesday to assist Rev. Williamson in his revival. The public is invited.
First A. B. Church.
The services last Sunday morning were all that could be desired. Dr. Carr preached from the subject "The Foundation of God" to the delight of a very large and appreciative audience. Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather a good audience assembled at 8 p. m. Dr. Carr preached from the subject "Justification by Faith" from which he produced many rich thoughts to the edification of the church.
To-morrow at 11 a. m., the Rev. P. L. Seme of South East Coast of Africa, will preach. At 3 p. m., the monthly conference and roll call. Every member is expected to answer to his name and give one dollar. Members failing to respond to the roll call will not find their names on roll with the working members of the church. At 8 p. m., Dr. Carr will preach, subject "The Bow of Promise." All are invited to attend these services.
We invite all of our friends to go with us' on our excursion to St. Catherine Island on the 23rd.

In Memoriam.
In Memorial of My Only Sister, Mary F. Morel, Who Departed This Life June. 13, 1901.
While memory dwells fondly upon the virtuous purity of our sainted loved one, the empty chair, the vacant place in the home circle is peculiarly manifested on this the first sad anniversary of our bereavement. We know full well that her pure soul has reaped the reward of God's chosen and dwells this day in paradise; that it is but natural that in paradise; that sorrow, care and suffering falls no more to her lot. Yet it is but natural that our great loss should find expression in sympathy and praise to the Heavenly Father that it was His diyne will that we should possess this rare and radiant flower for even the few brief years that we did. Mother, sister, niece, nephews and other loved ones unite to day in placing this garland of precious remembrance upon all that is left them of a life tob noble, a plant too熟, to dwell longer in this "Vale of tears."
"Tis hard to break the tender cord
'Tis hard, so hard, to speak the words,
We must forever part.
Till we see thy heavenly face,
Devoted sister, Catherine, Gailard,
Gavillan, Savannah, Ga.

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.
With soda water wash out the refrigerator.
Kerosene will soften boots or shoes that have been hardened by water and render them as pliable as new.
Blue ointment and kerosene mixed in equap proportion and applied to the bedsteads is an unfalling bedbug remedy, and a coat of whitewash is ditto for the walls of a log house.
Good kerosene oil will make tin kettles as bright as new. Saturate a woolen rag and rub with it. It will also remove stains from clean varnished furniture.
To beat the white of an egg quickly, put in a pinch of salt. The cooler the eggs the quicker they will froth. Salt cools and also freshens them.
You should never sun feather beds. Air them thoroughly on a windy day in a good place. The sun draws the oil and gives the feathers a rancid smell.
For washing finger marks from looking glasses or windows, put a few drops of spirits of ammonia on a molst rag and make quick work of removing them.
Never clean a drawing room or dining room without folding up the table covers, etc., and covering up the furniture with sheets; fold the curtains, having shaken them well first, then strew tea leaves over the carpet and brush it well.
Ivory that is discolored may be whitened by rubbing it with a paste compound of burnt pumice stone and water, and then place it under glass in the sun.

Is Burned by Angry Miners at Wilkesbarre, Pa.
RANKS OF STRIKERS SWELLED
With Virginia Coal Diggers Out the
Total Army of Idle Men is in-
creased to Approximately
170,000.
A special from Wilkesbarre, Pa.
says: The hanging in effigy of J.
Pierpont Morgan in one of the streets
of South Wilkesbarre by a crowd of
men and boys was the only incident
to mar the stifness of the Wyoming
Valley Saturday morning. After the
effigy had been hanged the crowd
cheered and pelted the object with
stones until the police came along and
dispersed the throng.
All the mining towns surrounding the city are very quiet. The news frob Washington that President Roosevelt could not find his way clear to effecting peace between the miners and operators was received with genuine disappointment. It had been strongly that the president would be able to find some means of opening up a way to peace.
Saturday marked the end of the fourth week of the total suspension of coal mining and the miners and their employers are farther apart than ever.
Virginia Miners Out.
The soft coal miners of the two Virginia's, 20,000 strong, struck Saturday to enforce their demands against the operators. All business in the mine region is tied up, and in a few days the stagnation will be complete. With approximately 150,000 men out in the aethracite region, the strike in the two Virginia's makes an army of 175,000 miners battling for better conditions. Roosevelt Confers With Hanna.
A Washington special says: Saturday the president had a long conference at the white house with Sena-Xanna on the coal strike. The president conveyed to Mr. Hanna the idea that he would very much like to do something toward settling the coal strike. Nothing definite, however, was decided upon. The president also sent for Carroll D. Wright, the commissioner of labor, to get his views on the situation, and also as to what might properly be done by the government looking to a settlement of the controversy. It is probable that other conferences will be held and the president kept advised of the situation. He will be in readiness at any time to extend aid if it is found that he can be of service in settling the differences that exist between the operators and the miners.
REVOLVERS, KNIVES AND CLUBS.
Wielded Promiscuously in 'West Virginia Republican Convention.
GINA REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
Telegrams from West Virginia tell of bloodshed and desperate fighting between the factions of the republican party of that state over the senatorial contest. Senator Scott, who is vice chairman of he republican national committee, is being bitterly opposed for re-election by Colonel J. L. Caldwell, a millionaire republican of Huntington. There have been many clashes between supporters of the two men, the worst of all occurring at the sixth district senatorial convention at Welch Saturday. Revolvers, knives, clubs and other weapons were used during the progress of the convention's deliberations, and as a result Colonel J. M. Fuller, one of the wealthiest and most influential citizens of Wayne county lies at a hotel probably fatally injured, and a dozen more persons have black eyes and sore heads.
The trouble came about over the selection of a chairman of the convention.
Boers Anxious to Return Home.
The twenty-seven Boer refugees in Denver, Col., have formulated an appeal to the British ambassador at Washington relative to their return to South Africa.
DEBATING ANARCHY MEASURE.
Alabama Representative Scores President For Memorial Day Utterances. General debate upon the anti-anarchy bill closed Friday. The incident of the day was a speech by Mr. Richardson., an Alabama democrat, condemning the president in severe terms for the references in his Memorial day oration at Arlington to the epithets applied to Lincoln and Grant during the civil war, and to his allusions to lynchings. He declared that the president's remarks violated the proprieties of the occasion.

BAD WRECK ON THE SOUTHERN.
Head-On Collision Near Jullette, Ga. Wherein Engineer and Fireman Killed and Many People Hurt.
A Southern passenger train from Atlanta for Macon struck a freight train head on, going at a high rate of speed, about three hundred yards south of the depot at Jullette, Ga., at 2:10 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The engineer and fireman of the passenger train were killed instantly and over a score of passengers were injured. Among the injured are a number of prominent Atlantans.
Among the more seriously injured was Ben Pearson, a state prison guard who resides in Atlanta. Pearson was conveying a female prisoner, under a life sentence, to the jail at Macon. When the crash came Pearson was thrown from his seat with terrific force and was badly hurt. The woman prisoner escaped with trivial injuries. Pearson was taken to Macon, where he turned his prisoner over to the authorities. During the trip to Macon Pearson's prisoner voluntarily became his nurse. She bathed his head constantly and stained the flow of blood with a handkerchief. Those on the train to Macon were loud in their praises of the woman and declared that she should be granted a pardon. Pearson was later taken to Atlanta.
The wreck occurred on a sharp curve, and it is not known definitely whether the freight train was at a standstill or not. The engineer and fireman of both trains saw that a collision was inevitable several seconds before the trains struck. The crew of the freight engine saved themselves by jumping, but the engineer and fireman of the passenger train remained at their posts. When the trains came together the concussion was so great, although Engineer Pittman had reversed his throttle, that both engines were badly wrecked, and inside the cars seats and doors were torn from their fastenings and flying through the air injured many of the passengers.
ATKINSON SELLS RAILROAD.
Belt Line at Birmingham, Alabama,
"Goes to St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company.
H. M. Atkinson returned to Atlanta Monday night from St. Louis, where he negotiated the sale of the Birmingham Belt Railroad Company to the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company.
The terms of the sale are not made public, but Mr. Atkinson states they are entirely satisfactory both to him and to his associates. He says:
"I returned from St. Louis late last night. While there I closed the sale of the Birmingham Belt Railroad Company to the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company. The terms of the sale are private, but I will say that they are satisfactory to myself and associates.
"While the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad will, in due course, announce its own plans in regard to the future of the property, I will state that I know the 'Frisco system will use the property to open Birmingham and the Birmingham district and not to close it. They' will be no more disposed to bar out the Seaboard, or any other railroad from Birmingham than I am.
"The 'Frisco system is one of the largest and most progressive railway systems in the United States. The intend to pursue an active constructive policy with regard to the Belt and to develop it so as to accomplish the greatest results in building up Birmingham.
"The plans of the 'Frisco system mean a great deal for the southeastern states. As I have large interests in these states, their plans will have my hearty co-operation.
"My aim in connection with the Belt property from the day I acquired it has been to use it to develop Birmingham. These plans can be pushed and carried out far better by a great railroad system like the Frisco, and as I know they will be vigorously prosecuted, this influenced me largely in selling the property."
A QUERRY FOR ROOT.
War Secretary Asked to Explain Dismissal of Miss Taylor.
Representative Shallenberger, of Nebraska, a member of the house committee on civil service reform, introduced a resolution Tuesday requesting the secretary of war to communicate to the house "the causes and reasons for the dismissal of Rebecca J. Taylor from her position in the classified service of the war department."
Miss Taylor is the clerk dismissed by the war department for criticising the president in connection with the administration of Philippine affairs.
STOCK TRAIN WRECKED.
Men and Horses are Mangled Together in a Smash-Up.
A special horse train on the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis railroad was wrecked near Mix station, Ohio, Friday, injuring about twenty valuable horses out of ninety-one on the train. Brakeman James Borden was killed and Engineer Daniel, Kunkel and Fireman George Boyen were badly injured.
Good. That Has Become Too Valuable to be Used, as Once, for Fence Rails.
The best black walnut in the United States is found in Indiana. Forty years ago there could be found in this State a crop of black walnut unequalled in quantity and quality. Today it is not to be found in such infinie trees. Neither is the number of trees by any means so numerous. Years ago the largest and best trees were used for fence rails and such common purposes. At that time it had no particular commercial valide. Betofo walnut came into general use, the most of domestic furniture was of cherry. Walnut has now entirely superseded this and all other woods. Fence rails can be found today through Indiana that were split more than half a century ago, and they are as sound now as then, save the wear and tear. Of all hard woods the walnut is most durable, save red cedar, and possibly in the ground, black locust would equal it.
Our walnut is comparatively gone. In isolated parts of the country, where this timber grows, there is yet some of inferior quality, but to a limited extent. But the general black walnut growing in the deep forest, in the rich lowlands, in its primitive nature, is a thing of the past. The general supply must now be gathered from the four quarters of the earth to supply a demand that requires a century-for its culmination witnesses the astounding spectacle of the almost entire extinction of the valuable material. Kentucky has quite a good stock of black walnut, and much that is very inferior on account of its grey color and tough, hard texture. Missouri also has some of rather an inferior quality. Western Ohio and West Virginia is poor in quality.
The whole stock of the states is not equal to a full demand for ten years to come. Furniture manufacturers do not now use it as lavishly as they did five years ago. Other woods are substituted when possible, and 1,000 feet of walnut are made to go as far again as it did a few years ago.
Chicago uses annually in her different branches of manufacture, such as house, school and office furniture, also in finishing material, doors, mouldings, counters, &c., 14,500,000 feet. Probably about half of this is bought at the mills, and does not go into the account of the dealers at all. Many of the largest manufacturers direct, of have mills or an interest in, mills in the walnut district.—Terre Haute Gazette.

Says Pe-ru-na 13 a Splondid Catarrhal Tonlc.
Hon. T. Y. Fitzpatrick, Congressman from Kentucky, writes from the National Hotel, Washington, D.C., as follows: "At the solicitation of a friend I used your Peruna and can cheerfully recommend your remedy to anyone suffering with catarrh or who needs a good tonic."
Pe-ru-na is a natural and efficient nerve tonic. It strengthens and restores the activity of every nerve in the body. Through the use of Pe-ru-na the weakened or overworked nerves resume their natural strength and the blood vessels begin at once to regulate the flow of blood according to nature's laws. Congestions immediately disappear.
Catarrh Cured.
All phases of catarrh, acute or chronic, are promptly and permanently cured. It is through its operation upon the nervous system that Pe-runa has attained such a world-wide reputation as a sure and reliable remedy for all phases of catarrh wherever located.
If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory, results from the use of Perun, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice free.
