that work will be begun before the
fall. When completed, the town will
have one of the most excellent water
systems for the protection of fire in the
State. The water and power are fur
nished by the Pennsylvania Railroad,
at their pumphouse just below the
station. In case of an alarm of fire the
engineer has the pumps going in force,
and with the assistance of a we'll regu-
lated hose company, fire can be reached
at any part of the town. The citizens
are naturally proud of the system, and
the action of the town Council to help
the good work along, meets with the
hearty approval of everybody.

FACTORIES At WASHINGTON.
A Cotton Mill and a Knitting Will to
BE Erected at Once.

Washington, Ga, Feb. 24-At last a cot
ton factory for Washington is an assured
fact. Stock to the amount of $780,, 100 has
been subscribed for, and the most sub
stantial citizens of the town and county
are behind the undertaking, which assures
its success.
The Georgia Railroad is a large holder
in the enterprise, and proposes to run the
factory by electricity from Anthony
Shoals, where enough power is going 20
waste TO run hundred factories.
This afternoon General Manager Scott
of the Georgia Railroad, with a number
of the directors arrived on special train
and went out TO the shoals to inspect the
place with a view to locating the power
houses. This will put us on an electric
basis. An electric railway will be run
out to the shoals, and will also replace
the faithful mules which have so long fur
nished the motive power for the street
railway.
One industry paves the way for another.

son, solid citizens of the town, have form

build, equip ard operate a knitting mill.
They have already purchased lot, front

1 have for a number of years had an in

away's methods of treating chronic dis
eases, and as a fellow physician 1 take
pleasure in saying that he has effected
more cures in the cases he has undertake
en- than any other physician, specialist or
general, who has come under my notice
in a practicing experience of over twenty
years. A patient, after an examination
by DR.. Hathaway. who entrusts himself
to his care is almost certain to be cured,
whatever the ailment.
/ have found DR.. Hathaway particularly
ccessfu-probabiy because more of such
cases than of others have come under my
observation-in the treatment of catarrh OF
the nose, throat, bronchial tubes and
lungs. l agree with DR.. Hathaway that
catarrh, unless checked in its early stages,
leads to consumption.
Little less successful is DR.. Hathaway I
find, in the treatment of ailments pecu-
liar to women, and kidney, liver and blad-
der trouble, varicocele, structure loss of
vitality rheumatism skin diseases, all

$500. Shortly afterward, a sensation was
caused by the arrest of Mr.. A. K. Pickard

charged with the crime. 1t appears tAat

Several years ago DR.. Edwards and Mr..

unders landing arose and though they set
tied their differences afterward, feeling
of GOODNESS continued between the Two
men, The Carsons and other negroes
were aware of their personal differences.
and it is the theory that they robbed the

telling that Mr.. Pickard, with Grant Car

came to him from 50 many sources that
he had both Mr.. Pickard and the negroes
arrested.
The plot was, it is said, that Carson was
to turn states evidence and escape with
