gross, but upon net earnings. and as the
rates Of freight from Atlanta for in

Nannah and to Norfolk. there would be
more net gain in hauling TO Savannah, be-
cause the cost Of the haul would be less.
Inc connection with its own steamship
lines, too, he said. would also necessarily

A PEOPLE OF FEW WORDS.

Let your speech be yea. yea, and nay
nay" says the Good Book FOR whatso-
ever is more than these cometh OF evil. %
The Shakers abide by the spirit OF this
rule. Their words are few. simple. sin
cere and direct. They waste no energy in
idle talk; they use it in thinking and do
ing. And whatever they do they do with
their might. They are content with moth
ing short of the essence and principles
of the things they investigate. They take
pains and are patient And thus the doors
Of many strange truths open 10 them.
In this way they discovered what may
almost be called the unity of disease. A
venerable Shaker says Of il: 1T is said
that one mans meat is another mans
poison. That is but half the truth. Any
mans meat is any mans poison under
certain conditions. If the grain never got
any further than the hopper we should
never have bread; and IL bread never got
further than the stomach We should never
have strength. When the stomach is tor
pid, helpless and inflamed, the food lies
in it and rots. This fermentation pro-
duces poisons which may. and often do.
disorder every other organ and function
OF the body. This is indigestion or dys-
pepsia, with many symptoms and dis
guises. Cure it and you cure nine-tenths
of our complaints" These words were
uttered many years ago. Since then they
have found a remedy, now known as the
Shaker Digestive Cordial. 1t is made
from medicinal plants cultivated by them.
II Is food and digests other foods.
Taken while eating IL rests the stomach
and nourishes the system. The pains and
distresses of dyspepsia disappear before
II. II prevents fermentation and soon re-
stores full power to the digestion. IL sue
ceeds in the worst cases. II is worthy the
name OF the people whose name il bears.

TO THEIR OWN AFFAIRS.
what II Cousin of the ZeigIers Says
About Them.

Mr. A. zeigler, cousin and near neigh
Dor Of the Zeigler brothers OF Screven
county, was in the city yesterday. and
was seen by a Morning News reporter
previous to his departure last night Mr..
Zeigler was a little wary of answering
questions, but talked pleasantly on the
subject most at interest now to every
body in Screven county.
Everything is just as quiet and peace
full as can be in our section" said he I'VE
are getting along nicely. and nobody is
giving us any trouble. Corr!e and Sol Leig-
Ter are attending to their own affairs, and
nobody has been there to arrest them.
Mr.. Zeigler expressed his doubts Of any
body attempting TO arrest his cousins.
While he did not say directly that they
would oppose arrest at any hazard. he
minated that this would be the case.
The Zeiglers don't expect that state
OF ahairs to last forever, do they?" he
was asked. There will have TO be

They don't expect to live forever
either" remarked Mr. Zeigler, Significant
ly. They had better stay there than
run away. They would certainly be ar
rested If they started to run. 1t would
be heap easier to arrest them in Sa-
vannah than up ere in the bushes"
Mr.. Zeigler justified his cousins in what
they did. If they had been given any
show, this thing would never have hap
pened," he said. After their father was
killed the Zeiglers went before the grand
jury and tried TO get a true bill against

HUNTING UP THE TOURIST RATES.
They Were TO Go Into Eject To-day,
But Nothing More known.

nut more
To-day is the day that tourist tickets
from northern and eastern, as well as
western points. go on sale, and this year
Savannah expects to have tourist rates
from all sections.
The Southern States Passenger Associa-
ton as is well known. has granted Sa-
vannah tourist rates from Washington,
but to get them from New York and
all eastern points it was necessary for
the railroads north of Washington to re-
duce their rates also, giving the newly
made tourist points the benefit OF what
is known as the arbitrary. AS Nov.
is the date for beginning the sale of tour
list tickets, inquiry was made yesterday
in order to learn If Savannah. had been
given the advantage of this arbitrary by
the lines north of Washington.
Assistant General Passenger Agent H.
c. McFadden of the Plant system was
asked about the matter. He said that he
had written and telegraphed several times
to the assistant general passenger agent
of the Pennsylvania railroad to learn what
action had been taken, II any, but so far
he has received no reply. He first SUP
posed that the official mentioned was
awaiting some action by the Trunk Line
Association, which has charge of passen-
ger matters in that territory, but as that
association has met since his first COM
munication was sent, he Is at a loss to
know why some definite information on
the subject has not been received.
Passenger Traffic Manager =. W. Wrenn
has taken the matter up with the general
passenger agent of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, and has also instructed Mr.. McFad-
den to keep at work on IT, Col. Wrenn
is now in Washington.
Mr. McFadden sent another telegram
with regard to the matter yesterday af-
ternoon. AS the time has come when the
matter of tourist rates should be def
nitely settled, an effort will be made TO
find out at once what the northern lines
are going to do about it.
The season promises to be q good one
for tourists and the outlook is shat Sa-
vannah will have more Of them this sea-
son than ever before.

be given out by the judge of the Latonia

back of him. if not the actual owner. d.
S. Carrig of Council Bluffs wired the
Judges to-day: "Brannon took the horse
from me and turned him over to Stafford"
The horse ran in Steford's name. People
from Brooklyn and st. Louis. who have
been connected with the Brannons, came
here to play the horse. Further evidence
is expected tomorrow.
The track was very heavy to-day for
the first time during the meeting, and the
weather was disagreeable. The chief
