to do so he was given thrashing.
The negro's cries attracted quite a num-

but supposes they came from another

Evan P Howell, editor of the Atlanta
(Ga) Constitution, in a lengthy letter from
Suwanee, published in the Constitution OF
Dec. 16 1898, says:
while the grippe is so prevalent and as
one of its victims that found relief, l can
not forbear giving the public one of the
secrets and best ways to get rid of the dis
tressing effects. After suffering two weeks
with it In Atlanta, with my head, ears
and throat all iuvolved-bones aching and
all the other disagreeable symptoms-after
l had tried medicines, and DR.. Calhoun

The object of this letter is not to
advertise the springs, but to tell my
friends VINO have the grippe, or have had
il. to come here and get relief The pro-
prietor says his faith is so firm that any
man or woman suffering with the disease
who comes and uses the water as he di-
rects and remains for two weeks or
month and is not relieved will get his
board free As sure as you come you will
be paid for the trouble. 1 believe the cure
is as certain for Dyspepsia and Liver and

" My Friend From India" Presented at
the Margaret Theater.


Snow and midwinter weather could
not keep an audience of more than
average size away from the Margaret
theater last evening when my Friend
From India was presented. The farce
has been here before. 1t is one of those
rollicking absurdities, full of ludicrous
situa tions and clever lines, of a class
with several seen lately at the Marga-
ret. A quiet, chuckling laugh. ripping
infectiously about the theater and
broken now and then by burst of al
most hysterical laughter marks the
progress of the presentation. The hu-
NOR that runs through the piece is so
rich that one enjoys letting it tickle his
fancy greatly: and then tones sud
den wildly ridiculous situation that sets
him shouting with merriment.
Walter Perkins. small of stature and
funny of face and voice, repeated his
previous success as the unfortunate
