Gordon has issued an order that only one

sTRANG HAS LOST HIS SUIT.
Claimed He Had n Contract to Build
Virginia Railroad.


Richmond, Va, March 22.-Judge Ed
mund Waddill of the United States Dis
trict Court to-day rendered his decision
in the case of W. r. Strang, Jr., against
the Richmond, Petersburg ard Carolina
Railroad.
Strang claimed that he had a contract
with the railroad company to build the
road. and that he was to take pay for
the work in the bonds of the company;
that they violated the contract and gave
the work to others. He secured a tenn
porary injunction in this court to prevent
the company from disposing of its bonds
or transferring it's contracts to other par
ties.
The case came up on a plea to perpetu-
ate the injunction, but was decided on
the questions arising in the demurrer to
the bill, making it unnecessary to pass
upon the merits of the motion for an in
junction.
The court ruled that the alleged cor
tract is in many respects vague and un.
certain. 1t does not with any degree of
certainty fix the point at which the road
is to begin or end or define the exact
route.
UNLESS the terms of contract sought. 10
be enforced can be ascertained with reo-
sonable certainty court of equity oupht
not to enter upon its enforcement"
A decree was entered dlsmissing with
costs, the bill of the complainant and as
consequence, the motion for the in
junction failed

TO HAVE A NEW COTTON MILL.
GRIFFIN COMPANY PUTTING UP A
100000 ADDITION.

Material on Hand for the New Build
ing and the Work Is Being Pushed.
Griffin VIII soon BE Able to Han
die All of the Cotton Crop in That
section-A Fircbug FIOEged and
Made TO Leave the County.
Griffin, Ga, March 22.-Grifin is to have
another 100000 cotton factory and the
material for building this large plant is
being received daily.
This factory is being erected as an adj
dition to the Griffin Manufacturing Com
pany and by April Is more than hun
dred workmen will be engaged in its cree
ton. Mr.. W. J. Kincaid, president of
the Kincaid Manufacturing Company and
Griffin Manufacturing Company, stated
this afternoon the building material was
being put upon the ground for this add
ton. and il was the wish of the stock
holders to have the machinery running
by the coming of the next cotton crop.
This" said Col. Kincaid will give
Griffin one of the largest plants in the
state and with ten years to start on, 1
could soon build a city the size of Griffin,
for when our new mill is in operation we
will work 900 hands regularly. 1t is with
pride I state our mills run on full time
every working day in the year. and often
extra time is made to fill the rush of
orders.
Yes, We are more than 100000 yards be-
hind orders. and II is impossible for us
to reduce this number We viii then have
in operation 2s,0O0 spindes and 1000 looms,
capable of utilizing more than all the cot
ton brought to this market
The Griffin Manufacturing Company is
yet in its youth. but is making such
grades of cloth as will continue to build
1t up in popularity and it is the inten-
ton of the owners to prepare and fill all
orders as promptly as possible, if they
have to enlarge the plant each year.
The Kincaid Manufacturing Company,
who are compile ting the execution of a
100000 addition to their plant, hope to
have the same in working order before
another month
An Incendiary Fire.
Several days ago the barn and contents
of Marcus Woodward, a negro living about
five miles north of Griffin, was burned
to the ground, which was the second fire
on his place within two weeks. This fire
was Of incendiary origin, and Woodward
had his suspicious as to the guilty party.
He began to quietly investigate the mat
ter and soon had Sufficient evidence
against Jim Hunter, another negro, who
lives near his place, and whom he had
had some trouble with, TO convict him.
Tuesday night crowd of unknown men
called at Hunters home, and having gain
ed from him strong evidence, gave him
sound hosging which he will never for
get. and told him to leave the county be-
fore another day or he would be dealt
with more severely. Hunter. it is said
lost no time In leaving, and the people
of that community feel relieved at being
rid of this desperate character, who will
doubtless always carry marks upon his
back as the result of his misdeeds

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
