STARTED The
RACE EARLY
CAMPAIGN FOR GOVERNOR
CAUSING CONSIDERABLE SURPRISE
AT THE CAPITOL.

1bree Candidates Practically in the
FieId Less Than Two Months Aft
er the EIectiOn-POIiticaI Talk in
atlanta over the SituatiOn-Boy-
kin WriEht's Announcement Pre-
cipitated the Campaign.
Atlanta. Nov. 6.-Considerable sur
-,rise is expressed at the Capitol over
what is considered to be the unusually
carly opening of the campaign for
Governor. Not before within years has
there been three candidates actually in
tbe field, less than two months after
the election.
state officials have commented upon
one peculiar feature of the situation:
That two of the candidates. Col. ].
n Estill and Hon. Clark Howell, whom
noli+ical comment has had in the race
for months past, should be put to the
necessity of making public announce
rent Of their attitude because of the
appearance of a new Richmond in the
field. and his open statement that he
was out for the governorship. Had it
not been for the statement of Hon.
Rovkin Wright. published in Macon
and copied all over the state. to the
effect that he was in the race for Gov
ernor. it is not believed there would
have been any announcements for
some months to come.
But the statement from Mr.. Wright
seemed inevitable. He has for several
weeks past, been quietly informing his
friends of his intentions, and the Won
der is it was not published before.
state officials are doing very little
talking of a specific nature about the
situation. They express themselves as
friendly to all the candidates, but they
believe there are others yet to be
heard from.
Political rumor gives a good reason
why Hon. J Pope Brown is mot run
ming vet" That is the way Mr.. Brown
put it. Though stoutly denied, rumor
has it that Commissioner Of Agricul
ture O. B. Stevens will be appointed
railroad commissioner to succeed Mr..
Brown, and that in this event. Mr..
Brown may become a candidate for
Commissioner of Agriculture. Mr..
Browns opposition to Gov. Terrell two
years ago, puts his reappointment on
the Railroad Commission out of the
question. and it is not believed that
Col. Stevens would be averse to filling
this office.
There are a good many things to
transpire before the political situation
of 1906 shapes itself up, and the evolu-
ton will be watched with no little in
rerest.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is
in Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
rev realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take Of it the better; 1t is not a.
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
IN the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
Ions and other odorous vegetables,
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, It whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels: II
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the
best charcoal and the most for the
money is I'm Stuart's Charcoal I,ozen-
ges' they are composed of the finest
powdered Willow charcoal, and other
harmless antiseptlcs in tablet form or

Incubator Fiat for Tlnic.t Baby.

From the New York World.
Young Falk, the smallest baby in the
world, has again changed his address.
Now he Is living in an Incubator, just
where no one knows but his good friend
and physician, Dr. Jacob Glass, OF No.
81 Second avenue, and he has promised
not to tell.
Thursday morning the stork left the
tiny boy at No. "a East Seventh street,
Mrs. Falk, the mother, intrusted him
to the care of DR.. Glass, who wrapped
him I'm cotton, put him into an inside
pocket of his coat and hurried 70 his
home. There the doctor filled hot
water bags and made bed for the
youngster in big clothes basket.
A sound more like the meow OF a
kitten than baby's cry came from the
middle OF the basket A World reporter
bending over the bed looked at first in
vain to find the infant. Then there ap-
peared tiny white face about the size
of a dollar and "A perfectly bald head.
The little fellow has a broad fore
head. AS yet he has not deigned to
gaze upon the world. His nose, small
as 1t is, is slightly aquiline, and never
was baby born with prettier, more
shapely little mouth.
When he first came he tipped the
scales at thirteen ounces.
The broken hearted mother, who at
first thought her baby would not live
is happy over the encouraging reports
of the physicians. The baby measures
only eight inches I'm length and Is four
inches about the waist. His hand at
the longest part is less than one inch.
The fingers are perfectly formed even
to the finger nails.
Never has there lived twelve hours
a baby so tiny as this one" said DR..
Glass yesterday. wen make a man

cally and we are going to bring him
through. He came four months before
he was expected"

DRUGGIST PUT UP
MORPHINE FOR QUININE.
One Took 1t and Died and Another
Came Near Dying.


Valdosta, Ca. Nov. 26-Mrs. Mike
Mack, the aunt of little Rosie O'Neal,
who died of accidental poisoning at
Naylor this week, will be discharged
from the Valdosta Sanitorium to-mor-
row, having about recovered from the
effects of the drug which she also took.
1t is almost a miracle that the entire
family was not wiped out by the poi
son.
All of the members were suffering
from colds and Mrs. Mack sent to a
drug store after some quinine. The
clerk made a mistake and sent NOR
phine. The bottle was wrapped in
brown paper, and Mrs. Mack took out
the cork and began to measure out
large doses for herself and the chill
dren. Rosie O'Neal, her niece, took
the first dose and died from the eff
1ects. Mrs. Mack also took a large
dose and discovered the mistake before
giving it to any Of the other children.
she was dangerously ill for a day or
SO, and was hurried to the sanitorium
here, where she has been gradually
improving. The remains of the little
girl were sent to Knoxville for inter-
ment.

Under Government control.

Mexico City, Nov. 26.-Foreign ex-
change is now well under the control
of the government, which has 10000
900 gold at its disposal in New York,
and though 1t does not sell exchange,
IL has entrusted this business to the
National Bank of Mexico, and when
ever the government requires two or
three million dollars here. the Ma
tional Bank will furnish It and will
sell exchange on New York at such
rates as to keep IL below the maximum
of 105 premium.
There is general satisfaction with the
steadiness OF exchange, which gives
strength 10 the business situation.

ident comiskey of the Chicago Amer
lean League Club. in which he said
that he was perfectly willing to go to
Washington if the right price was
made.
The interview began with the cap
tain's inviting the two presidents to
his place to practice on tie bowling
alleys Then he gradually led up to
the baseball proposition and declared
that he was in dead earnest.
President Johnson was out when An
son came in. but Secretary Fredericks
was dispatched by Mr.. Comiskey to
find him and the discussion of the deal
was in progress in ten minutes. Arson
was informed that the president of
the league had no power to set a price
on The property or to decree that it
should be sold. but promised to take
the matter up with the other club own
ers at the earliest opportunity and get
instruction from them about it,
Il would not want to be in with any
body in the management of the club"
Arson declared. If I get it at all 1
must have full control of it. Yes, 1
am willing to get into baseball again.
1t has great deal of fascination for
me-"
The offer was more or less of a sur
prise at the American League offices,
where Arson has not been a frequent
visitor lately. The former captain
would not say what he intended to do
with his present business or what his
plans were if he should get control of
the club.
IAN that can be decided later" he
said.
President johnson will probably take
the matter I'D at the meeting of the
American lea TslU
He said that the majority of the stock
of the Washington club was owned by
Washington people and that it would
be necessary to consult them first of
all before anything was done in the
matter.
