THE GUN CLUB.
ORGANIZATION Perfected and the
Pigeons and Trap for Spring.
ing Them Ordered.

Organization of the Dawson Gun
Club was perfected Thursday afternoon
in the Office of Colonel J. Il. Irwin. Al
though very few were present great
enthusiasm was manifested, and it re-
quired no foresight to see that the club
would be success.
After few preliminary remarks by
Colonel Irwin the election of a presi-
dent, secretary and treasurer occurred,
resulting in the naming of Mr.. A j.
Carver for the frst office and Mr.. o.
E. Torrey for the last two. The offices
of vice president and manager are yet
to be filled. Messrs. w. A. Baldwin
and T. L. Query were appointed q
committee to select site for the
grounds, and they will report in a few
days.
The clay pigeons and apparatus fol
springing them have been ordered,
and will arrive in few days

WHITE MAN THIEF?
Sip White Is Charged With TAX
ing Mr.. McGi!l'S Money. He
Came from Cuthbert.

Sip White, young white man, was
arrested Friday charged with stealing
a'sack containing Sl3 81 from a show
case in the store of MIR. Tom McGill.
The theft occurred several days ago
and an account of it was given in last
weeks NEWS, when it was stated that
a clue to the deed was held and that
an arrest would probably soon follow.
White it is understood. is from
Cuthbert, and had been working at
the crate factory here for a week or
two. Mr.. McGill thinks he has the
rignt party, and believes he has evi,
dence sufficient to convict the accused
man.
The young man remained in jail I'M
til Saturday afternoon, when he was
released on bond.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS WILL
CLOSE NEXT THURSDAY.
THE COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM WILL
BE UNUSUALLY INTERESTING.
Graduating Exercises will Occur in the
Forenoon, and at Night DR.. White
Will Deliver Literary Address.

The spring session of the Dawson
public schools will end next Wednes-
day, the 10Th inst, and on Thursday
the closing exercises will occur.
The schools have enjoyed a most
prosperous term during the nine
months just ending, and more than or
binary interest attaches to the closing
exercises.
The public are invited to the school
buildings Thursday morning to see the
work in the several grades, which will
go on till IL o'clock.
At that hour the graduating exer-
cises will take place in the chapel, and
diplomas will be presented to the grad
yates. This class numbers six, as fol-
lows : Miss Melissa Miller, salutato-
rian; Miss Jewell Durham, historians;
Mr.. Hayward Turner, orator; Miss
Inez Proctor, poet; Miss Jimmie SPELL
err, prophet; Miss Gussie Lee, vale
dictoriau.
At 8 o'clock at night Rev. John Z.
White, D. D., of Atlanta, will deliver
an address to the school and the town
at the Methodist church. DR.. Whites
one of the ablest and most eloquent men
of the state, and his address will doubt
less be one of great interest to all who
hear him.
Vocal music will brighten the pro-
gram, and a large audience will be
present at all of the exercises during
the day.
Superintendent Hankins and his as
sistants have labored earnestly during
the term, and the public shares with
them their qualification over their
triumph.

PICNICS IN EVIDENCE.
Several Occurred Near Dawson
the Past Week.

The month CT May is characterized
by numberless picnics. This has GER
tainly proved true this year, and pic
nickers were never more in evidence
than they have been in and around the
city the past two weeks.
The Sunday school and good people
of Graves and surrounding community
enjoyed an occasion of this kind Fri
day at Melton's mill, and it is needless
to state that it was success in every
way. The annual picnic of the Sunday
schools of Smithville occurred Thurs
day at Newman's grove, near She'll
man, and the trainload of lighthearted
picnickers which came through Daw-
son was proof sufficient of the delight
full time anticipated. A like occasion
took place at Midway Friday, the fes-
tive day marking the close OF Profess
or Kenyon S school.
And there are more to follow.

PRESIDENT ABANDONS TRIP.
Mrs. Mckinley Is Sick and 1t Is
Feared She Will Not Recover.

Owing to the very serious character
of MIS-. McKinley's illness the presi-
dent has decided to abandon his
Northwestern tour and to return to
Washington, so soon as Mrs.
Mckinley shall be able to stand the
journey.
The gravity of Mrs. McKinley's con-
dition has been known to the members
of the presidents immediate party for
several days but had been concealed.
in the belief that she would rally, as
she had so frequently done in the
past when suffering from one Of her
periods of depression, and with a few
lays of absolute rest be restored to
normal condition.
The latest reports are that Mrs Me-
Kinley is much better and there IS not
much doubt of her recovery.

&C. EINAIS
ITCH IS TORTURE

Eczema is caused by an acid hurnor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
aammation; little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and fssured Eczema in any
form is tormenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
it will keep the skin irritated.

SNAKES ESCAPE IN EXPRESS CAR.
Messengers On The Genital Railroad Get
Bad Scare,

From the Macon Telegraph.
Express Messen gers J. H. Littleton
and Reese Roc.hill had an experience
in express car No. l Friday night be-
tween Macon and Atlanta that was
about as thrilling for them and gave
them about as much unhappiness as
Express Messenger White felt when
the train robbers bound aud gagged
him some time ago.
These gentlemen had an encounter
with big roll of snakes. They were
rattlers. black runners, coachwhips,
etc. To the messengers there seemed
to be of every kind and in all size.
Messenger Littleton was sitting in
chair busily engaged when Mr.
Rockhill first discovered the snakes.
A long one was crawling up the round
of Mr.. Littleton's chair. Then they
seemed to be coming from everywhere.
AS both men are strickly sober at all
times, they knew the snakes were the
real thing, and the horror was lnten-
slfied. Mr.. ROckhill declares that as
soon as Mr.. Littleton discovered the
snakes on his chair he sailed straight
into the air and seemed to stick to the
ceiling overhead. When be finally
came down he landed on the big iron
safe rather than on the floor, for the
snakes had not yet found way to get
on the safe. MIR. Rockhill had crawle q
up on the side of the wall, and was
using his feet to protect himself, while
the snakes were filling the air with
Kisses and their forked tongues we re
darling everywhere; add to add to the
confusion every rattler had cooled him
self and was buzzing with his rattles.
The snakes had all come out of big
box that was being shipped to a snake
charmer, or one who "eats them
alive" The lid had been loosened in
the handling of the box and the
snakes escaped.
After the messengers had held their
breath long enough for the snakes to
conclude that it would be safe to seek
shelter the reptiles crawled into or
under the boxes of vegetables, etc., in
the car, and the likelihood is that the
people who open the vegetables in At
lanta for the next few days will find
snakes to spare. The messengers had
neither time nor inclination to rebox
the snakes.
