How often is this expression uttered by
the procrastinating man or woman; how
often would that self-same person give all
they possessed; when too late they ap-
preciate their hardness in acting upon
what we suggested, but with the remark,
"Oh, I'll do it after awhile" they let 1t 70
on until too late. Now is the time for the
prudent TO provide themselves with some
simple remedy that will relieve them or
their children in the dark hours Of the
night from the sudden attacks of the
bowels, at a time when the doctor may be
too far away to give the necessary prompt
relief-after awhile will be too late. Get

DEATH OF HERMAN MEYER.
An Old Citizen Dies Under singula
circumstances.

An Old Citizen Dies Under Singular
circumstances.
Herman Meyer. who for several years
has kept cigar and toy store at Whita-
ker and President streets, died suddenly
last night under singular circumstances.
It appears that Mr.. Meyer has been in
bad health for some time, and that he was
taking medicine. He evidently thought
that the bottle from which he was taking
it contained opium, and imagined that he
was becoming a slave to the
opium habit. He accordingly sent
40 Cincinnati for patent medicine
which was advertised as cure
for the habit. On Thursday he took one
dose Of the drug, and yesterday morning
began At 6 O'Clock and took a dose every
two hours until p. m. At Z O'Clock in
the evening he died with symptoms df
narcotic poisoning. Coroner Dixon was
notified and Will hold an examination
this morning.
There were five bottles in the box which
Mr.. Meyer received. Each bottle con
tanned about four ounces OF a dark liquid
which had a smell very much like lauda-
mum. Bottle No. I. is marked: Extract
Picus POrteana. Take 90 minims times
day. Prescribed by Dr. }. G. Beck, ll2
John street, near Fourth, Cincinnati,
Ohio. Ledger, 1884, page 81. Use the
bottles As they are numbered. Use all Of
No. / before opening No. ., all of No. . be-
fore opening No. 3, and 80 on until the
numbers are exhausted. Never take
more than prescribed, YOU may take less
81 you can do - and leel better. Shake
the bottle we'll before using"
According % the label the medicine or
bottle, or prescription, was entered ac-
c0Idiug 70 act OF Congress- with the Lii
brarian OF Congress in 1873, by DR.. Beck.
The most singular thing 10 that the origi-
nal prescription which the deceased was
taking and which ne imagined TO be
opium was really swectgum. About half
an ounce has been used from the first
bottle OF the cure. and physicians
say that is amply sufficient 10

F0n. Mr.. Never WIS 30 years Of age. lie
was born in Hanover Germany and came
10 Savannah IN 1859 he served during
the war in the Beaufort cavalry under
Capt. Marsh. The deceased leaves five
children. Die wife died about two years
ago. Mr. Never waa very attentive 10
his business, being seldom seen outside Of
his store Tie Was a member OF Live Oak
Lodge Of Odd Fellows.

WHERE ATLANTA STANDS.
The Wrsngle for tho Southern League
Pennant Growing Lively.

The WrangIe for tho Southern League
Pennant Growing LIVELY.
Atlanta has taken firm stand in her
claim for the Southern League pennant.
Augusta also puts in well-backed claim
on the ground that Atlanta refuses to
play its deferred game with her. The
Atlantas say they don't believe that
Augusta viii make this claim seriously.
and then 60 on to say further that the
League season was closed on Sept. II by
the vote OF Augustus representative.
When the season closed, Sept. II, Atlanta
was seven points ahead of Augusta. This
is undisputed. There being no tie between
Augusta and Atlanta, there was no power
TO force Atlanta to play any more games
with Augusta. The laws of every league
in the country, and the Opinion OF every
base ball authority, is clear on this point,
that no club can be forced to play a game
after Il season is closed unless the season
closes with tie between two clubs.
The Constitution says: Atlanta
takes her stand on this principle, and
by this sprinciple, which cannot be
contrOverted, she claims the pen
nant. Those who doubt this principle
can appeal to any sporting paper in
America to the president Of any league
outside Of the Southern league, or to the
arbitration committee Of all the LEAGUES.
and they will find but one opinion on the
subject. We don't believe the directors
OF the Southern league viii ever take the
pennant from Atlanta. under the state OF
things. A meeting will be called shortly,
and we have no doubt about the decision
Of that meeting, and emitting any further
discussion Of the matter. win await the
