Commander Walker in Danger of
Being Censured.

Atlanta, Ca. March 27-The annual en-
campment of the department of Tennes-
see and Georgia, Grand Army of the Re
public, will be held here tomorrow. AL
ready number of delegates have ar
rived, including a delegation from Colony

that there will be over 100 Grand Army
men present when the proceedings are
begun tomorrow.
Officers for the department for the en-

that resolutions will be introduced in the
meeting by a member of the Atlanta post
severely censuring Commander Walker of
the Grand Army for his action in issuing
an order against members of the Grand
Army from parading with confederate
veterans. The probability of the introduce

warm discussion among the delegates al

RAwLs AND THE ROBBERS.
a Later Version of the Holding Up
of the Store Keeper.

Waycross, Ga, March 2.-Horatio
Langford passed through Waycross to-day
on the way to the Pierce county Jail. He
was in chains having been chained to a
post in Schlatterville since early yester-
day morning. The facts in the case
against him and his partner, as learned
this evening, are in the matter of loca-
ton different from the version originally
published.
Early one night this week, Langford and
Rawls at Schlatterville. They bought
something to eat, and later they ordered
something more. Mr.. Rawls went to fill
their order, and his back was turned to-
ward the men. When he looked around
he faced two ugly revolvers in the hands
ana threatened to shoot If he refused
Mr.. Rawls held up his hands, and the
robbers threw him down, dragged him into
a rear room of the store and tied him Sc
curely with ropes. They searched his
clothes and the store for money, and OBJ
tanned $50. Mr.. Rawls had just returned
from WaycrosS, and as he expected to
collect $1,000 insurance money that day,
and failed, the robbers, having expected
TO secure the $4,000, were disappointed
The robbers took Mr.. Rawis gun and
other valuables and ran off into the dark
ness leaving Mr. Rawls bound hand and
foot in the store. The robbers went To
Nahunta- Men and dogs overlook them
and fight resulted. Langford was shot
and captured and his partner escaped
The search for the escaped robber is stiU
in progress and much excitement exists
in the county between SchlatterVille and
Nahunta- The man is charged also with
having killed a white man last month al
Odum, and the sheriff of Wayne county is
pursuing him.

CONVICT LEssEES cRAMPEp.
THE COMPANIES SLOW IN SETTLE
ING WITH THE STATE.

Fines Amounting 10 $4,000 Paid Into
the State Treasury Yesterday-The
Convict Business not Rs Profitable
a. in the Past and the Companies
Having a Hard Time TO Clear
Their Expenses
Atlanta, Ga. March 27.-Three thouand
two hundred dollars was paid into the
state treasury to-day by the convict les
sees. on account Of fines imposed recently
by Gov. Atkinson, for the escape Of con-
victs. The fines We're not as promptly
forthcoming this time as they have been
in the past, the attorney general being
obliged TO send the lessees pointed re-
minder several days ago. before payment
was accomplished. This slowness on the
part OF the lessees to meet this obligation
has disclosed the fact that the convict
business does not seem to have been as
prosperous of late as it has been formerly
and the slowness, if not the actual ina
bility of some OF the lessees to meet their
obligations, is said TO be Weighing with
the governor in the matter of fixing a
penalty for violations of the lease con
tract, as shown in the late general investi-
cation. Company No. l, the Dade Coal
Company. against which most of the dam
aging testimony was directed in the inves-
LEGATION, appears to be the most seriously
troubled. The governor is believed to have
made up his mind to levy fines on the les
sees. but is doubtful whether the penalty
can be collected after 1t is assessed, and
for that reason is waiting until the les
sees pay up what they already owe the
state before adding the next burden. The
yearly rental for the convicts for the last
two years has not all been paid, there
is a balance due of 81, 929 for the hire for
1894 and 1885. About $1,000 Of this is due
by Capt. English's company, No. 3, and
the balance is due by the Dade Coal Com
pany, or Company No. l.
Fl. IA. s nave been issued from the Office
of Controller General Wright for the sum
and they have been levied on property be
longing to Capt w. d. Grant and the es
tate of the late Joseph +. Brown, bonds
man. These f. ia. s must be settled by the
first Tuesday in April or else the property
will be sold to satisfy them. Besides this
the yearly rental of $4,000 must be paid
by May ]. This will come close upon the
heels of the payment of the other large
sums and IL is said that on this account
Gov Atkinson wishes to give the COM
panies time to catch their breath from
these drafts before he jumps them in June

Weak r. erves

Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues Of the body are not
satisfied with their nOurishment.
They draw their sustenance from
the blood, and If the blood is thin, i'm
pure or insufficient, they are in state
Of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result Of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla-
nation of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Read the next column.

INSURANCE RATES HIGH.
Tariff Association Requires a Paid
Fire Department at WaycrOss.

Waycross. Ca, March 27--The Eastern
Tariff Association last year Informed the
water works commission that low rates
Of FIRE insurance would be given 10 Way
cross when the water supply reached the
capacity OF GO gallons a minute. The
water commission and the city council
at once made arrangements for an in
crease in the water supply, and a new
pumping system, costing over 5000. was
added to the water works The capacity
OF the new system is greater than was
required by the Eastern Tariff Associa-
non by 80 salons minute. Besides
the Improvement in the water supply.
the city council and the water works
commission have improved the fire de-
OF hook and ladder company and three
hose companies. The department Is
prompt and efficient always in its SER
vice Numerous dangerous fires that
would have cost the insurance companies
great losses have been eXtinguished by
the department during the past year, and
the citizens OF Waycross appreciate this.
IN view or the fact that the department
IS not paid for its service, but is VOlun-
tary. II seems that the Eastern Tariff As
ISOLATION viii require the city 10 pay
the hremen salaries before the rate on
insurance will be lowered. The only com
courtesy shown the firemen by the city
council at present is relief from street
tax, sum of 81 a year. Each member
OF the hose companies pays as member
ship fee 81 year for the privilege of vol
unteering their services to the city. The
efficiency of the work of the firemen
should entitle them to receive some com
pensation for their services, provided that
the city council can afford to do so. But
in the event that the city council should
consider the matter of paying salaries
to the firemen. it has been suggested that
a definite agreement should be required
from the Eastern Tariff Association for
a reduction at once in the rate of in
surance. The water works system of
Waycross is second to none in South
Georgia, and the city's fire department is
about as efficient as the paid departments
of some of the cities of the state.
