elements taken from fresh Gods lners,
but without a drop of oil to upset the
stomach and retard its work, and, more
over it is delicious to the taste.
Vinoi acts first upon the stomach, tones
up the digestive organs, creates an appe-
tite purifies and enriches the blood and
strengthens every organ in the body to
do its work as nature intended.
Vinol is recognized throughout the
world as the greatest strength creator for
old people, weak, sickly women end chill
dren, nursing mothers and after severe
sickness.

colds, bronchitis and all throat and lung
troubles. Unequalled to create an APP

Mr.. j. H Van Miller, of Spencer, We're
found between the latter place and Sails

ton The lads were carried to their
homes by friends, and it developed that
they were drunk, and that the whskey
had been given them by an unknown
man who was passing the place where
they were at play When the boys were
able to give an account of the occurrence
they claimed that the stranger caught
and held them and forced the liquor down
their threats, though this statement is
disbelieved by some. The Eeenest indlg-
nation is manifest in Spencer towards the
party who gave the intoxicant to the lads
who are only about fourteen years o.
age An effort is being made to capture
and punish the perpetrators.
John Ellis, colored, aged about fifteen
years, was tried in Justice Lampkin's
court at Spencer yesterday on the charge
of throwing rocks at a respectable white
lady near that place this week. 1t is
learned that the negro, together with two
associates. went to the home of the lady,
who is a widow with her young daughters.

A. & B., So Rumor Says,
will Soon Make Arrange
ments for Station
MAY ENIER UNION DEPOT
+ Amicable Agreement Can be Made
Addition May be Made to the Pres
ent Union Station by the
Atlantic and Birmingham.

Rumor has it that tie Atlantic
and Birmingham railroad is either fig
rring on entering the union depot
Or erecting a handsome station of it's
own in the city
Such rumor has been heard in
this city before, but it is afresh again
and although nothing definite can be
learned ii seems that there is more
to it than a mere rumor this time.
1t is n well known fact that the
4 & b. officials are not satisfied with
tbeir present stopping place at the
foot OF Gloucester street While it is
convenient to the trave ing public as
Tar as location is concerned, still this
growing road wants q depot, and from
Y hat can be ascertained it is going
to have one.
A prominent visiting railroad man
vas in the city Yesterday and in
conversation with a News reporter
he stated that he understood that the
= & b. would shortly make an agree
mcnt with the A. c. l.. and Southern
to enter the union depot. And, he
added, IF an amicaDle agreement can
not be reached between the three
II ad mark the prediction that with
ir the course of short time the A..
q b. will begin work on a new depot
which will be pride to the people
oi Brunswick"
The reporter asked this official if
Ee knew it to be fact that the A.
3 j. was now communicating with the
other two lines III reference to the
use of the union depot, but he was
unable to reply to the question
While the people of Brunswick
would be delighted to see the A. &
T. erect a new depot in the city, still
they would, no doubt, rather see the
.tttee roads go in together and build
an addition to the present station
and give us a depot which would be a
cI edit to the city. 1t is believed that
if the Southern and A. G. l.. would
agree, the a. & b. would add the nee
cssaIy room to the present depot to
make ample room for the accommo-
dation Of all three roads To do this
i, would he necessary to bui!d tracks
o. the eastern side of the depot there
bclng plenty Of room With a small
amount of money this present depot
could be made a very handsome one,
and could be used by the three roads
10 the satisfaction Of everybody.
1t is believed that The A. & b. is at
present trying to solve the depot ques-
iion and would not be at all surprising
Il such an agreement was not made
itE the other two roads. The union
depot could not be better located
to: the convenience Of the public as
ven as the railroads. The present
station Of the A. & B. was only secur-
ed for a temporary depot, nothing has
ever been erected in the way Of build
il IS, and the ticket Office of The com
pany is now in rented building.
II is believed that within the course
of month or two some definite de
cision will be reached by the officials
ct the road as to permanent depot.
