Gregory of the University of Wisconsin.
The speech was enc OF the finest ever de

lion. Prof. Gregory is a charming
speaker, aud his address and manner of
delivery made quite an impression on his
audience.
Judge March W Beck of Griffin read a
splendid paper OF jury and jury trials. His
long term on the bench made him thor
oughly familiar with his subject.
Chancellor Hill of the University deliv-
ercd an address on the law of infants.
During his speech, Mr.. Hin made some
remarks concerning the Georgia colleges,
which were loudly applauded. Mr.. Hin

profession of the law, but he had nor
given up the Bar Association.

vious to the banquet will be the address

talk. The report of the committee recon-
mending that graduates of law schools
be not admitted without going before the
State Board and that of the committee on
payment of fezs for expert testimony are
expected to start the lawyers off on the
former question the association is badly

PUMPING ENGINE FINED.
Temporary Relief From Water Fam
inc in Atlanta.

inc i'm Atlanta.
Atlanta Ga. July 5.-Temporary relief
has been afforded from the crisis which
existed in the water works department
by the patching up of one of the broken
engines. The defective cross beam which
caused so much trouble during the past
thirty-six hours, was put into working
condition at the Southern Railway shops
II was taken to she pumping station this
morning and is again doing duty
-Four breaks in the machinery, all So
rious, is the record at the pumping sta
ton I'm the past three months Besides
the pillow block, the beam and the cross
head there was broken strap in the
engine, prior TO all of these. The fact was
not made public but the engine on which
the break occurred, was shut down in or
der to repair the damages.
This series of accidents and the couse-
quent danger they forced on the city have
been The cause of much criticism of the
engineers in charge of the plant. Officials
of the water department and other city
officials defend the engineers and declare
they are C mretent men, IS reliable and
trustworthy as any in the country. A. W.
Collier, chief engineer at The capitol was
formerly one of the engineers at the
pumping station. Mr.. Collier. in an inter
view, says the force is incompetent and
the breaks would not have occurred had
capable men been in charge
He takes the position that the engineers
have been running at too high pressure,
due 10 the ignorance of the engineers, and
that there has been entirely too much lost
motion. The engines are guaranteed to
pump 10000 900 gallons Of water a day,
while the city uses not more than 700

SPECIAL NOTICES.
WHY AND HOW SUWANEE SPRINGS
WATER CURES.

There is but one cardinal reason: The
Water is natural diuretic. Get hold of
that phrase in its full meaning, if you
please. Turn to Abernethy. Natures
way of cure Of disease is by free diuress. "
And Avenbrugger: Mature cares for she
kidneys. That is health" And Bichat:
Health is impossible if the diureucs be
neglected"
Put il in this way: The Water has a
selective action on the kidneys The ex-
erection of the solid matters-the urea
uric acid, and eXtractiVe matters-is in
creased by it, In other words, il causes
the elimination of the products of the
increased metamorphosis of tissue. And
yet, notice that this is done without any
impairment of the quality Of the blood, or
any lowering of the forces of the organ
ism.
1t is better that patients go to the Spring
to take the Water for the reason that the
psychic influences of change of scene as
sociations and climate are very large fac
tors concerned in the results of treatment
Go to the Spring, if you can 1t means
much more than you can dream Of You
want the Water as Nature hands il forth
Bus if you cannot go for any reason, you
may ress assured that it is the same
Water, whether taken az the Spring or
hundreds of miles from there, and that
the results are the same wherever il Is
taken
There are two or three points to be not
ed.
Suwanee Water is prompt in its action
1t acts the same day that 1t IS taken. The
effecs are immediate
The effects are continuous That is. the
results which are early accomplished, are
continued.
