TO DIVIDE THE COTTON.
Meeting of the Southern Traffic Men
in Atlanta To-day.

Meeting of the Southern Traffic Men
in Atlanta To-day.
Mr.. c. D. Owens, traffic manager Of the
Plant system, and MIR. F. b. Papy went
to Atlanta last night via the Central rail
road to be present to-day at meeting of
all the traffic men of the southern lines
for the purpose of considering the matter
Of making some amicable arrangement
with regard to a division between these
lines Of the cotton received for shipment
at the different junction or competing
points.
An account of this meeting between the
traffic men was given in the MORNING
News a day or two ago. This has been
the custom every year for the traffic men
TO get together and decide on a satisfac-
tory basis for the apportionment between
them for the shipment of the cotton re
ceived at the junction points. The crop
this year will be an unusually large one.
and there has been some query as to
whether this will not be a sort of dis
turbing element, and create desire on
the part of some of the lines to get little
more than their share. If any differences
arise which cannot be settled between
them, then the matter is referred to the
board of arbitration of the Southern Rail
way and Steamship Association

GAME NOT TOO PLENTIFUL.
The Rice Bird s ason a Good One, but
Ducks are Scarce.

Ducks are Scarce.
The sportsmen are complaining that
some classes of game are rather short
this season, and the supply does not
promise to show up as well as it has in
some years gone by. Rice birds are about
the only hunting that there has been no
scarcity of so far and they have been
brought into the city in any quantity
They have sold as low as 20 and 25 cents
per dozen on the streets, though at the
beginning of the season they could not be
bought for less than 30 cents dozen.
The duck crop, however, will probably
be rather short one. Three or four
hunters who were out a day or two ago
reported that after days search they
sighted only nine teal, and these were
Tying around out of reach. AT this season
OF the year they say there ought TO be
plenty of them here, but so far they have
been scarce article in the market. The
regular hunting season will open in Octo-
Der, but, so far as has been noticed there
is no promise that game will be very plen-
tiful during the season
Some of the sportsmen say, however.
that the year has been a good one for
partridges, and unless the rains have in
terfered with them seriously, they pre-
dict that they will be plentiful.

DEMOCRATS AT WORK.
Rallies for Almost Every County in
the District Before Oct. 8.

the District Before Oct. 8.
For the next ten days the First con
gressionai district will ring with more
democratic doctrine than has been heard
within its confines for the last two years.
Arrangements have been made TO keep
things pretty warmly stirred up between
now and the October election. and
speeches will be heard in some parts Of
the district almost every day between
now aud Oct. s.
G.. B. Whatley. ESQ chairman of the
executive committee i'm the district, is
taxing an active interest in the work and
Will know within a few days, as soon as
he rec6ves replies from cores pOndents
in several of the counties. Just about how
the vote will stand. From what he has
gathered, so far, he feels no hesitancy in
stating II as his belief that the demo-
Gratis Will carry every county by a good
ma. GRITTY. There is some little doubt
about the majority in Eftiugham. in which
the number Of popullsts is said to be
almost as large as that of the democrats,
but II is believed that the work to be
done there will meet with good results.
Saturday the democrats of Mcintosh
county had one of the largest rallies at
Darien that county has seen in a long
time, and 1t promises 10 be repeated to-
day when Col. r. f. Lester and Hon.
Louis +. Garrard appear there. The
speeches of Saturday were made by MIR
William Clifton, Mr.. F. A Stovall and
Capt Joe Mansfield, democratic candi-
GATE for the House of Representatives
from that county
Tomorrow I. S. Morgan and probably
MIR. p. A StOyaI will speak in
Hinesville, in Liberty county, while Col
Lester and Mr.. Garrard will be at Millen,
from where they will 90, on Thursday, to
Arcola, in Bulloch county. Saturday
Springfield in Ehingham county, will be
the scene Of a democratic rally, at which
speeches will be made by MIR. Garrard
and L. 5. Morgan, Jr Bulloch
county is preparing for one of
the largest rallies of the year,
at Statesboro, on Wednesday, Sept. 26.
Democrats from all over the county will
gather there on that date, and speeches
will be made by Hon. W Y Atkinson,
Hon. l. f. Garrard, Hon. A O. Bacon,
Chairman Steve Clay and Chairman G.
b. Whatley
The Emanuel county rally will probably
be held Tuesday, Sept 25 though the
date has not as vet been definitely fixed
1t is proable that Mr. Garrard and Mr..
Morgan will make speeches there on that
day.
1t has been decided to put Savannah
last on the list and to wind up the cam
paign with a sort of general rally here
day or two before the election, which
will be about Oct |. Savannah is prom
ised several speeches by prominent cam
paigners, and it is likely that the people
will have the opportunity of hearing some
good democratic oratory before Oct. 5.

1t will be seen that the gross earnings
for June and July of 1894 were larger than
those of the same months of the preceding
year. The expenses for each of these
months in 1894 were much smaller than in
the same months of 1898. and by economi-
cal expenditure the net or surplus earn
ings We're considerably increased. They
would have been greater in June and Julyof
1894 than in 1893 even though the expenses
had been the same on account of the
large increase in the gross earnings of the
property. Allowance must be made for
May, however, on account of the fact that
the road was not completed until some
time after the first of the month, and was
not in shipshape until May was half
gone.
1t was the belief Of many after the
storm, that if the road were rebuilt the
island would not be as popular as resort
again, on account Of the fears that
many might have entertained and
that the road could not again
do as large a business as it
had done before. The facts and fig
ures, however, disproye these fears and
beliefs, and show that Tybee is as popu-
lar as ever when il comes to a near by
summer resort. The August earnings
will not be known for some days vet
but it Is known that they were unusually
large, as after the reduction of the fare
to - cents for the round trip immense
crowds visited the island every day.
Tybee will continue to hold its own.

How Germs Attack People by the

If you nave ever seen a swarm of bees

possible to get within a small space.
When you, stop to think, though, that
there are a million Insects in an atom
of air as large as the head of a pin, you
will be able to understand what germs
are. These germs, which cause nearly
all diseases, Increase with lightning ra-
pidity. and are taken in with every
breath we draw. They are specially
dangerous at this time of the year. as
they feed upon the body instantly II
they are not driven away,
For hundreds of years physicians have
tried to learn the best means of driving
away the germs of disease, but it has
become generally settled now hat where
a pure medicinal whiskey is used regular
~ there is little chance for any germ to
live. Germs may get into the body;
they may come in he air we breathe
and the water we drink, but they can
not live and thrive and produce disease
if they are killed off constantly and
promptly by the use of pure whiskey.
It should be remembered in this con
nection that there Is but n really, pure
medicinal whiskey in America, and this
is Duffy's Pure Malt. This fact is
universally acknowledged, and the wide
popularity which it possesses proves its
superior power. All reputable druggists

HEROSARYO OF MARY
An Encyclica1 Letter by Leo
XIII. on the Efficacy
of Prayer.
ST. LUGY'S ANNUAL BAZAAR
Will Open Monday Night With
Many Attractive Features
Diocesan Union.
ST. LUCY'S ANNUAL BAZAAR

Mgr. Satolli has received from Rome
the Pope's annual encyclical letter ad-
dressed to the faithful throughout the
world on the devotion or the rosary. 1t
is dated at Rome. on September s, 1894.
The encyclical begins:-"We always see
the return of the month of October with
high hope, since that month is dedicated
to the Most Blessed Virgin by our ex-
hortat!on and order! We have often
stated the reason which has led us to
make this exhortation. When the un-
fortunate times of the church called for
the immediate help of God we thought
that help was to be asked for through
the Mother of God as our mediator, and
was to be sought for particularly through
that rite whose virtue Christian people
have ever found eficacious. Christian
people have felt this from the origin of
the Rosary of Mary itself, both in pro-
tecting the holy faith from the heretical
attacks of men, and in the upholding of
those virtues which in a corrupt age
were to be upheld and sustained. In our
own time we rejoice to say that many
salutary fruits have been derived there
from. but looking about us, venerable
brethren, you yourselves see the reasons
why this year ardor in praying to the
Queen of Heaven is stimulated by our
exhortations."
The Pope then alludes to the excellence
of the Lords Prayer, and gives several
quotations from the saying of st; Bern
ard, relating to the threefold origin of
grace, efficacy of the Intervention of the
Blessed Virgin in behalf of those who
seek her aid. Considerable attention Is
devoted to praisine the rosary and to
the good results obtained by those VINO
pdonf this method of Drayer.
The Pop next calls upon good Catho-
lies to do all in their power to defeat
the Vaccinations of those whose works
are displeasing to God and calculated
Italy. He expresses his grief that even
among Catholic nations there are many
who rejoice when religion is brought
into discredit, and who do all in their
power to bring holy things into contempt.
He refers to a theatrical production in
which the Saviour of men was impiously
represented, and strongly condemns such
representations. He urges the faithful
everywhere to discontinue such proceed
ings, and especially the faithful in Italy
to adhere to the religion of their fore
fathers. In conclusion, he bestoWs his
AnoStoIic benedictiOn.
