PERIOD OF DARKNESS OVER
Electric Lights Now Sparkle, to
the Delight of All.

The people of Dawson are fully pre-
pared to appreciate the beneficent ad-
vantages of brilliant electric lamps,
after three nights of darkness, dispell'
ed only by the inferior power of kero-
sene or the titful fare of the tallow
candle. Tuesday, WEDNESDAY and
Thursday nights, were periods of dark
ness in the history of Dawson, and
when the town emerged from the night
Friday evening-when the big whistle
at the plant gave a prolonged signal,
when the hum of machinery was again
heard, when the platinum wires were
first tinged with crimson hue and
then suddenly grew brighter, when
dark streets were turned into
lighted highways, the town felt like
throwing it's hat up and giving a pro-
longed shout of JOY.
The running of machinery at the
plant was suspended during the time
stated, so that the recently purchased
dynamo could be installed, and this
work was finished late Friday after
noon, after three days arduous labor on
the part of the city electrician and
others. The lighting service is
much better as result of the add.
tional power furnished by the new dy.

THE CUTHBERT BALL TEAM QUIT THE GAME
Visiting Players Thought They Were Mstreated Their

this stage of the game that safe hit
was batted out by Brown, who landed
on second. At this junctare Daw son s
rooters grew frantic with excitement
and the side lines were bedlam of
confusion, Cuthbert claiming that this
crowd was responsible for the failure of
a ball to be felded. In quick succession
with the excitement still at it's height,
two more runs were scored for Daw-
son, making ten to nine. Baldwin
then left the field and no amount of
persuasion was able to make him again
appear. Umpire Savllle, waited for
about ten minutes and then called the
game as stated. The unfortunate ter.
mination of the game is regretted as

Catarrh of the Stomach.

When the stomach is overloaded,
when food is taken into it that fails to
digest, it decays and inaames the mu'
cous membrane, exposing the nerves,
and causes the glands to secrete mu-
Gin instead of the natural juices of di-
pestion. This is called catarrh of the
Stomach. For years I suffered with
catarrh of the stomach, caused by in.
digestion. Doctors and medicines
failed to benefit me until used KOdol

UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA.
Interesting Information About
the Educational System.

While Prof. j. S. Stewart, state
agent of the University of Georgia,
was in Dawson Saturday The News
gathered some interesting information
regarding the states educational sys-
TEN. The University is composed of
the archaeological school, the Normal
and Industrial school for girls at Mil
ledgeville, the military school at Dab
lonega, the medical school at Angus
ia, and the institutions located in Ath.
ems.
Over $500 students were enrolled in
the university last year. The parent in
stltution at Athens had the largest at
tendance last year in the hundred
years of its existence. This was due
to the splendid management of Chan
cellOr Hill. By boarding on the cam
pus young man may obtain his board,
room, fuel, lights, books, laundry and
fees for $l25 for nine months. Thus
college training has been brought
within reach of the poor boy. In the
year agricultural course the ex-
penses will be only $1l0. In this
course boy will study English, math-
dulLudI nus
bandry, dairying, horticulture and ele-
ments of agriculture, every phase of
the instruction being illustrated on
the University farm. This course
should be very attractive and benef-
cial to our young farmers who CANNOT
spend four years at college.
Among the citizens of Dawson who
have attended the University are
Messrs. M. G. Edwards, j. A. and j..
D. Laing, M. j. Yeomans, L. G. Hoyl,
j. B. Kendrick, Carver James, Bascom
and Ben Hill, j. G, Parks, Warren
Parks and B. McRea.
The summer school for teachers now
n session has already enrolled over
600 teachers, taught by 80 professors.
The teachers board in the dormitories
on the campus and at the normal
school for So week. The school closes
August s.
AS. Mr.. Stewart says, the UniYersi-
ty was built for the higher education
of the people along technical, profes.
sionaI and cultural lines. Fortunate
are the boys or girls who can or will
avail the mselves of the opportunities
offered. The man of systematic edu-
cation and training is the man of the
twentieth century.
