HUssARs AND LIGHT INFANTRY
Will Preserve Peace at Andersonville
On 3Oth.

Governor Gambler has designated
the Americas Light Infantry and Ma
con Hussars as the military force
which, with Sheriff E. Il. Bells posse
of picked rifemen, will hold down the
bellicose blacks and preserve the
peace at Andersonville on decoration
day, 30th.
Orders were issued yesterday for the
military to report to Sheriff Bell on
that day for duty.
The request for military protection
was made by Grand Army posts as
we'll as by citizens of Andersonyille,
all of whom desire to have the peace
preserved on that occasion.
Everyone is familiar with the scenes
that heretofore have marked the day
there, not at the cemetery but in the
woods half mile away, where thous-
ands of negroes assemble on such oc-
casions. The orgies that follow are
disgrace to the state and those par
ticipating.
Riot, bloodshed, murder and gamb-
ling make up the black story that is
told every year.
Hundreds of colored people go there
and conduct themselves properly, but
there is always a tough element on
hand to cause trouble. Fourteen such
beasts were run down by the troops
there on May Both last year and
brought here manacled and lodged in
jail.
Sheriff Bells posse and the military
can be counted upon to hold the
hyenas in check.

SECTION SWEPT By HA1IsroRM
Much Damage Is Done on Farms
Near The City.

A severe hailstorm swept east of the
city at noon yesterday, with disas-
trous results to young corn and cotton
and vegetation of every kind that lay
in its pathway.
This was about two miles in width
and several miles long.
On the Bolton plantation and that of
Mr.. M. B. Council a great deal of dam
age was done, while other farmers in
that section suffered also.
Young corn was stripped its blades,
broken down and beaten into the
ground. Cotton suffered likewise, and
on some places the entire crop must be
replanted.
A deluge of rain fell out in that dig
trict though the rainfall here in the
city was light.

Whooping Cough.

A woman, who has had experience
with this disease, tells how to prevent
any dangerous consequences from it.
She says: Our three children took
whooping cough last summer, our baby
boy being only three months old, and
owing to our giving them Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy they lost none
of their plumpness and came out ID
much better health than other children
whose parents did not use this remedy.
Our Oldest little girl would call Justify

"Behold, Justice sleeps within the

''Justice has often slumbered here"
was the rejoinder of the man who had
caught the biggest fish, or else told the
biggest lie, and then silence, like
fog, again enveloped the crowd.
