CAN'T GET GOOD MEN.
Col. Buck Is Undecided as to a state
Convention.

Convention.
Atlanta. Ga, Aug. 8.-Col. A. E. Buck,
chairman Of the republican state eXecu-
tive committee has not yet determined
TO call state convention of his party.
The authority to do so was vested in him
by the committee at it's recent meeting
in Macon, and he has had the matter I'M
der advisement since that time.
The trouble about putting out state
ticket in Col Bucks mind appears to
be to get the right kind of men to go
upon it.
what is the use" he said, to-day, "of
putting out a ticket unless we can have
men upon it who will impress the people
with the fact that they are competent
to fill the offices if they are elected,
But he was asked: do you think there
is any chance that any republican ticket
could be elected?"
"Well, under the present conditions"
replied the easy boss, Il can't say that
there is.
IF you put out a state ticket, will it
be composed of all white men?"
81 do not know about that" said the
colonel with far-away look in his
eyes.
The question brought to mind the hot
fight that is being made on him by Rev.
Love of savannah and his cOlored fol-
lowers, who have taken up the hatchet
against the Lily Whites of the G. 0. P.
Personally, do you favor a white tick
"Eh?" he answered, q can't saw lust
now; that is 1 do not care to be quoted
upon that point"
Col Buck is now engaged in correspond
Ing with such republicans as he thinks
would impress the public with the ideas
tnat they could fill the offices if they
should be elected. If he can secure their
consent he may call the state convention
ana have them named on a ticket. 1t will
ne Ten days or two weeks, he says, before
ne can tell what he will do Two weeks
ago II was reported that the Love faction
would favor Col. W. L. Scruggs for gov
eIhor' while Col. Scruggs was willing to
make the race if he could secure the
united support of the whole party.
,L lQ2-GGay COL Buck, when asked stated
tnat Col Scruggs would be acceptable to

Prisoners Shot.
Havana. Aug. 3.-Antonio Pena Lopez
and Narciso Rodriguez Lopez, respective-
ly Lieutenant and a private in the IN
surgent army, were shot to-day at the Ca
banas fortress for the crime of rebellion

sisted of only 100 soldiers, while the in
surgents numbered a thousand. The gov
eminent troops were defeated and COM
PEELED to retreat. Two Spanish lieuten-
ants were killed, and their commander of
the troops and a large number of his
force were wounded. The rebel losses
were heavy.
Yellow fever and smallpox are in
creasing throughout he island, and in GER
tain localities have become epidemic. The
authorities are adopting measures to pre-
vent the spread of the disease, and to
diminish the high death rate.

To preserve discipline on board ship
is not always an easy matter, and the

has interfered with salutary effect. and
while it protects the sailor from tyran-

his best behavior. In truth. poor Jack

For swearing or using improper Ian
guage he forfeits a days pay.
For quarreling or provoking to quarrel
he suffers the same.
The same punishment is inflicted on
the man who carries a sheath knife.
IL he brings spirits on board he loses

If the cook has not dinner on the table

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Speculation
concerning the amount and character
of the new bond issue was set at rest
late last night, when Secretary Car
Isle made public the circular on the
subject. The loan will be ''popular'
one, and the circular, which is dated
January 6, gives notice that the gov
ernment will sell 100000, 900, 30-year
per cent coupon or registered bonds,
dated February l, 1895, for which pur-
charers will be required to pay in
gold coin or gold certificates. This
will be the first issue by the present
administration of such large amount
OF bonds at one time. The circular
also contains an intimation of pos
sible further issue of bonds should the
issue or sale of an additional or. diff
ferent form of bond for the mainten-
ance of the gold reserve be authorized
by law before February 5.
1t was almost midnight when Secre-
tary Carlisle's circular was made pub
lie, too late an hour to obtain the
opinion OF public men on the action of
the government or the prospect of the
absorption of the bonds by the people.
The fact that the bonds will be issued
in sums of $50 and multiplies thereof,
and be payable in installments is
feature which it is believed will make
them be regarded with popular favor.
