Grip Epidemic Coming.
Grip and Pneumonia Are Easily Es-
capped il the System Is Kept In
Condition With Duffy's Pure
Malt WhiSkey.
NOW Is THE TIME TO PREPARE
FOR 1T.

Last winter when grip and pneumo-
MIA were raging in New York City and
hospitals were filled to overlooking
with sick and dying. thousands Of
cases We're cured by using nothing but
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey.
The dostors issued a warning that
if the sweep of these death dealing
diseases was to be successfully stem
med, every man, woman and child on
the first appearance of "grippy'
symptoms must at once take Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey as a preventive. 1t
checks the symptoms and strength
ems and builds up the system so that
it can successfully resist and throw
off the attacks.
If pneumonia and grip are not
promptly treated with Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey, consumption develops.
One of New York's most celebrated
physicians said he would rather have
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey for the
treatment of consumption than all
other medicines combined. 1t re-
places the affected tissues, purifies the
blood and strengthens the circulation
so that the congested matter in the
lungs is promptly and thoroughly
removed.
1t was decided at the Medical Con-
ventiOn last summer that the only sue
cessful treatment for lung troubles
was to fight them right at home
where they were contracted.

HALF A CENTURY A PREACHER
Rev. w. L. Geiger's Work on Behalf
of the Baptist Church.

Triton, Ca. Nov. 5.-Rev. w. l..
Geiger, one of the oldest preachers in
the Baptist ministry, was a guest of
Triton friends this week.
Rev. Geiger is in his 18th year. and
has been actively engaged in preaching
for over fifty years. He was the first
Baptist minister that ever came to
Berrien county, and resided at Allapa-
ha for a number of years. He was
pastor of the church at Allapaha, and
also New River Church. two miles
east of Triton. and up to the time he
left Triton, he had baptised more souls
than any other preacher in the same
territory in this section of the state.
He left Triton eighteen years ago,
and this was his first visit here since.
He was royalty entertained while here,
and preached an able sermon at Tiff
ton Baptist Church Tuesday night, and
Wednesday at his old church, at New
River.

Hotel and Residences.

Hotel Regent, owned by Shepherd &
Manard, value $500, insured for 81
500; Mrs Julia Pope, residence $500
value, insured for $3.50; H. w. Brown,
photographer, studio, fixtures and ap-
planes, valued at $4,000, insured for
$1,000; Mrs. Julia Pope, dwelling, in
surance, $1,000, valued at 81 500; c. B.
Helmes, furniture, valued at 81 900.
The residence of DR.. A. p. Hunter,
adjoining that of Mr. W. w. Tim
mons, was greatly endangered, and
slightly damaged, as was likewise the
residence of Mr.. w. r. Baker which
adjoined the dwelling of Mrs. Julia
Pope. 1t was only by heroic efforts of
Triton citizens that the handsome
buildings of the First National Bank
and postoffice were saved. These adj
join the Bowen building. The Triton
Grocery Company also narrowly es-
capped destruction.
Ammunition Exploded.
In the hardware store of S. G. Slack
& Co. were hundreds of boxes Of car
tridges and loaded shells and after
about half an hours conf1agration,
when the fire broke fiercely into the
store building, the terrific explosions
which lasted for at least twenty min
utes, reminded all old veterans in Tiff
ton of the hard-fought battles in the
days of the civil strife.
With the exception of a few thou
sand dollars, most of the insurance on
the buildings, stocks, furniture, fix
lures, ETC., lost In the fire was carried
by Messrs. Larsen & Banks of Triton.

900; insurance. $50, 900.
Loss of a Drayman.
Henry Jones, a negro, who has been
drayman at the store of S. G.. Slack
& Co. for the past Ave years, lost $4e5,
in greenbacks,. in the fire. He had been
saving his money and had it stored
away in a small box in the cellar,
where the fire originated. When the
fire was discovered in the cellar he
made an attempt to go in, but was
forced back by the smoke.
The families who lost their resi-
dences have all been comfortably To-
Gated, and within a few weeks, will
begin to rebuild.
1t is understood that the Bank of
Triton has made a proposition to the
policyholders who suffered losses in
the fire, TO loan them so per cent. of
the face of the policies.
Hundreds of visitors from this and
neighboring counties are here to-day,
viewing the. remains of the fire.

cause the principal witness against
MIN was not competent TO testify.
Inc case of Miss Dismukes is a
t-pltiable one. 1t is said her rea-
son has been in part restored and she
Is now rational on all subjects except
mat of the assault upon her by
thornton. Not only the bare men
ton of the assault, but the mere
slght or a negro passing her window
causes the most violent outbursts. and
the greatest care has to be taken to
keep her quiet and calm.
The condition of Miss Dismukes has
served to arouse the feelings of the
people of her home county to a point
where a sight of the criminal would
no doubt drive them into a frenzy.
The military authorities know that
they will be called on to keep order
whenever this case should come to
trial. though it cannot be tried until
Miss Dismukes has sufficiently recov-
cred to testify. The chances for a
troublous time when this case comes
up, are quite apparent, and the mill
tary officials are determined to be
prepared to meet it.
The Mitchell County Trouble.
The other case is from Mitchell
county. There is a chance of Whitley
" iAI1Old, AllC llCSlO VINO hllleu young
man named West, being granted a new
trial by the Supreme Court West
who went to arrest Williford, in COM
pany with a deputy sheriff, was not
an officer of the law. Some of those
familiar with the case say the evil
dence did not make out the crime of
murder, and that it could only be con-
sidered voluntary manslaughter.
A mob was formed in Mitchell coun-
ty to lynch Williford when he was
tried a few weeks ago. It's purpose
was thwarted by the presence of a
battalion of militia, under Mai. r. L.
Wylly. Williford was convicted, SEN
fenced to be hanged, and taken back
to Thomas county Jail for safe keep
ing.
According to reports there are citi-
zens of Mitchell county who are de-
handing Williford's life. Judge
Spence is determined that he will try
this case without a change of venue.
If the Supreme Court should grant
new trial, as many seem to think
another duty will confront the state
militia. 1t will perhaps mean another
battalion of troops, and one which will
have to deal with a mob more dan
gerous than that which was repulsed
when the case was first tried at Ca
milla.
The state authorities are already
discussing these cases. They are de-
termined that every necessary step
shall be taken to uphold the law and
prevent mob violence.

MOULTRIE'S NEW
MILITARY COMPANY.

Mouitrie Rides Formally Mustered
in BY COIORsI Obear.
Noultrie. Ga. Nov. 5.-The new mil
itary company 10 be known as the
Moultrie Rifles was mustered in here
last night by Inspector General VIII
liam G. Obear. The meeting was held
in the Court House and several prom

among them being Assistant Adjutant

ment, Maj John ID. Little of Atlanta,
Capt. John p. Ross of Macon, Col l..

There was quite flow of military
eloquence, which was a feature of the
ceremonies. The new company begins
with forty members. The officers
elected were Thad Adams, captain; T.
H. Parker, first lieutenant, and w. d.
Scott, second lieutenant, all of them
experienced and we'll trained military
men. The visiting military officers

WILL CALL OUT GREATER
NUMBER OF TROOPS
State Officials Determined to Prevent Mob VIC
lence in the Future

Atlanta, Nov. 5.-There are two
cases now pending in Georgia courts
in which the state militia may be call
ed upon to protect prisoners from mob
violence. and the prospects in connec-
ton with them are already being dis
cussed by military and other officials
at the State Capitol.
Since .Statesboro there is some un-
easiness in official quarters over riot
duty, because it is feared that the cir
cumstances surrounding the Bulloch
county case will serve as encourage
ment to mobs and make them more
bold and daring, while at the same
time the troops will be the more de-
termined to suppress such lawless-
ness. The fact is realized, therefore.
that in future calls for riot duty for
the present at least, more than the
ordinary number of troops will be re-
CURED. State officials are determined
to spare no effort to prevent mob vio-
Ience in the future, and it is not at
all unlikely that a battalion will be
called out where formerly the work
was done by one or two companies.
The TObe Thornton Case.
One of these cases is that of lobe
Thornton, a negro who has been in
Jail for nearly a year at Americas.
where he is held on the charge of
criminally assaulting Miss Dismukes,
a young lady who lived near Preston,
in Webster county. Miss Dismukes
was returning to her home one even
ing about dusk and was surprised
when she entered the door by an at
tack from mulatto negro. There was
no one within the sound of her voice
and she was practically powerless in
his hands. When she recovered con-
seriousness after several days of ILL
ness, her reason had fled, and it was
found necessary to send her to the
state insane asylum at Milledgeville.
Thornton was subsequently captured,
the mob formed to lynch him was
eluded, and he was safely landed in
fail in Americas where, it is stated,
he admitted his guilt and has never
made any attempt to deny his horri-
Bile crime.
This has been almost a year ago
Twice has the case been called by
Judge 2. A. Littlejohn in the Supe-

lucky, today gave out the follow
ing report for week ending June
81:
The temperature averaged
slightly above the normal during
the week. The rainfall coming
in local showers, was unevenly
distributed, some localities hav-
ing good rains and others very
little.
The wheat harvest progressed
we'll and is nearly completed in
the Western Section. The acre.
age is considerably below the
average, but the Weld and quail
ty promise to be very good.
The setting of tobacco was
about completed during the week
and the plants are making good
growth. The acreage will be less
than usual.
Corn made rapid growth and
is looking we'll, but will be late.
1t has been we'll worked and
some early fields have been laid
by.
Oats have headed low and will
not make a full crop. Rye is
looking we'll.
Irish potatoes and gardens look
promising, but need more rain.
Hemp is making good growth.
Peaches and apples are doing
fairly well, though there is some
complaint of apples falling off.
Blackberries give promise of a
good crop. Cherries are ripe
and quite good.
Some hay has been cut, the
yield is generally below the aver
age and qualith poor on account
of weeds; this is especially true
of timothy hay. Pastures are in
fair condition, but need rain in
many localities.
Farm work is well up and
crops generally well cultivated.
