Many May See But 1t Takes Genius to
Realize.
When James Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle lid to jump up and
down he said There must be power in
that steam that 1t can lift such a
weight"
There was.
Millions prior to him had seen the
same phenomenon and regarded it as
an unexplained mystery.
Recent scientific research has put it's
finger on the cause of Dandruff, Fall
ing Hair, and consequent Badness and
has unearthed tiny germ which eats
the life from the roots of human hair
NeWbro's Herpicide destroys this
germ and consequently restores the
hair to it's natural state.

IN BEHALF OF
PROHIBITION CONGRESS.

Rev. $. ii. Cummings, the "Blind
Chaplain" at Wesley Monumental.
Rev. S. H. Cummings. of Maryland
known as The Blind Chaplain of the
Senate" spoke at Wesley Monumental
Church yesterday afternoon at 8
O'Clock in behalf of a general prohi-
bition convention of congress in Wash
ington in 1906.
Rev. Mr.. Cummings began his adj
dress by assuring his audience that
he was not a politician, never was
and by the grace of God never in
tended to be. He is simply a min
lister of the gospel of Christ, he said
and as such is deeply interested in
seeking to find some remedy for the
Generalization produced by the liquor
traffic.
In consequence of almost entire
blindness he has been compelled to
relinQuish his work as a pastor. The
sad condition of the lower classes of
city life induced him to organize meth
DDS for their relief and improvement
and led to the discovery that the
liquor traffic was the source of all
Indebtedness, poverty and crime, and
his soul stirred within him to do what
he could to destroy that traffic.
He accordingly entered the temper
ance work of the Maryland State
Temperance Alliance, which organiza-
tion has already closed up the sa-
Icons of more than one-half of the
counties of the state.
In 1898 he submitted to a national
convention of Methodist ministers a
proposition for united congress of all
the churches, both Catholic and Pro-
testant, to see if in their united wis
dom they might not devise some FEAST
bic plan by which the liquor traffic
might be suppressed throughout the
nation; the speaker proceeded to say
that this proposition was unanimously
adopted by a rising vote and subse-
quently adopted by four other conven-
lions, representing anti-saloon league,
prohibitionist and the church, and a
committee appointed to request the
next general conference to call the
congress.
1t is in the promotion of this con-
gress that Mr.. Cummings is visiting
the several states in the Union with a
hope of ultimately bringing about
some solution of the vexed problem, he
went on to depict the dangers to the
country arising from the liquor traf-
fic: Edward Everett" he said, warn
ed the country forty years ago of the
dangers when the liquor bill of the ma
ton was only $200,000000, but it is now
81, 300 00O,O and still increasing; we
must not pride ourselves that because
our nation is great and strong that its
destruction is impossible from such a
source. The Hebrew people, as we'll as
the splendid empires of the East, had,
one by one, risen, flourished and fallen
by reason of the liquor traffic, and
America ought to profit by their sad
example"
Mr.. Cummings referred to the visit
of Miss Francis Willard to the ma
tional committees of 1884, and said he
deeply regretted that they did not see
and seize the opportunity afforded for
the humiliation of the liquor traffic.
Since then, however, the traffic has
grown to mammoth proportions, seri-
ously affecting the church in all her
departments as well as the government
in all it's functions.
1T is he said, "the secret of all
high prices, low wages, enormous taxa
ton and general generalization and
we must call halt or die

BRUNSWICK SURPRISED
BY the News McLaurin Gave Out
About Enterprises.

Brunswick, Ga, April 12-The an
nouncement in the Associated Press
dispatches this morning to the effect
that in an interview in Baltimore, ex-
Senator McLaurin of South Carolina,
stated that the contract for the erec-
ton of the steel plant in Brunswick
had been let, came as a great sur
prise to the people of this city. as it
was not before known that Mr.. Nc
Laurin was connected with the Mo-
hawk Valley Steel and Wire Company.
The dispatch stated that he was vice
president of the company, and also
that he had been elected president of
the Brunswick and Birmingham Con-
struction Company. This also came as
a surprise, as Senator McLaurin has
not before been identified with the con-
struction company in any capacity,
and it was not even known that he
was a stockholder Col. Machen who
was elected president of the Bruins
wick and Birmingham last week at a
meeting in New York, has been pres
ident of the construction company
since its organization, and nothing
had been heard of a change in this
city before.
The article also stated that the con-
tract for the erection of the plant had
also been let This also came as a
surprise. 1t was known that the site
for the mammoth mill had been select
ed, and the Mohawk people are only
awaiting titles to begin work on the
buildings but just how Mr.. McLaurin
became interested is not known, and
there is no one in Brunswick who
knew that he was interested in either
the Mohawk company or the Bruins
wick and Birmingham Construction
Company.
President Machen of the Brunswick
and Birmingham, and President UNI
sted of the Mohawk Company are both
expected in Brunswick some time next
week, and their arrival is anxiously
awaited, for the reason that it is
thought that they will have something
definite to give out on all of the rail-
road and steel mill rumors which have
been sent out from New York and
other Eastern cities during the past
few weeks

Unknown Tramp from Boston
Struck from Behind and Killed.
An unknown white tramp was run
over and killed at an early hour this
morning, near Central junction, by
Seaboard Air Line north bound pas
senger train No. So. The man was
badly cut and mangled, and was killed
instantly.
AT the time of the accident South
ern Railway passenger train No. 80
was backing into the city, and the
vision of the engineer of No. Sc was
in a measure interfered with. The
Southern train and a curve. prevented
the engineer of No. Sc seeing the man
on the track until the engine was with
in about twenty feet of him.
The tramp was walking, and SEEM
ingly did not hear the engine as it
bore down upon him. He was with
another white man who managed to
get out of the way The unidentified
man was badly crushed and mangled,
and there was nothing on his person
to show who he was. His companion
gave his name as John Cannon, and
said that he thought the dead man
was from Boston. He had only been
with him short while, and stated
that he did not know his name. The
railroad men on duty at the Union
Station would give out no informa-
tion and the acting station master
claimed not to know whether the vic
tim of the engine was black or white,
although he had been to the scene of
the accident.

j. e. MACEDONIAN, Chattanooga.

Chattanooga, Tenn, April 12-Col.
John L. MacGowan, the veteran editor
in-chief of the Chattanooga Times and
one of the oldest and best known news
paper men in the South, died this after
noon at his home in this city.
Col. MacGowan was yesterday
brought back from Thomasvil1e, Ga.
A complication of diseases caused his
death.
Col. MacGowan had been engaged
in Southern journalism from early re-
construction days. He was born in
Ohio, in 1881. He served in an Ohio
regiment during the war, becoming
colonel of the command. He was mus
tered out of the service after having
previously received a brevet brigadler
generals commission. He then located
in Chattanooga and has since resided
here continuously.
His newspaper career began in 1872,
after he had served the city of Chat
tanooga in several public capacities.
He became associate editor of the
Chattanooga Times and subsequently
was attached to the Chattanooga DIS
patch and the Knoxville Tribune.
In 1878 Col MacGowan returned to
the Times, which paper he had since
served as editor-in-chief.

PREVALENCE OF CATARRH
Growing Use of HyOmei Will Soon
show a Decrease of This Disease.

snow Decrease of This Disease.
Statistics show that at least 81 out of
every 100 persons in this state are suf-
fering from catarrh in some form.
While the disease is one of the most
common with which the medical pro-
fession has to contend. it is also one
OF the most dangerous. This is owing
to its tendency to affect the bronchial
tubes, causing consumption and other
diseases of the respiratory organs.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei
every method of treatment for the cure
OF catarrh had been found worthless
This can be cleary proven by the
weekly statements published in every
large city by the Board of HEALTH
showing a great increase in the death
rate from diseases of the respiratory
organs, and the startling growth in the
number of persons afflicted with such
troubles.
The discovery of Hyomei and it's in
creased use has already reduced the
percentage of persons suffering from
catarrh. This wonderful remedy is the
simple and most pleasant of all treat
ments. Just put a little Hyomei in the
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, breathe through the inhaler for
ten minutes four times a day. Relief
will be seen from the first treatment;
cure will soon follow. 1t is the true
treatment for diseases of the respira-
tory organs.
Scientific and medical men recon-
mend it. Leading druggists have so
much faith in it that they guarantee
cure or they will refund the money.
In this city Knights Pharmacy Co.
are selling it upon that plan, so that
any of our readers can use Hyomei
without its costing them a cent I'M
less it cures. Can there be a fairer
way?
