IN GOING TO SHRINE
ALL MARCH IN LINE.
Shriners in Grand Pageant
Here.
HUNDREDS TO INSPIRING MUSIC
Marched Through the Streets Monday.
Feature One of Greatest interest
Time in Americas

70 the inspiring strains of Wright's
military band the Mobiles of tie Mystic
Shrine marched in glitterIng parade
yesterday afternoon, the pageant halt
ing an hour later at the oasis whittier
the unregenerates, securely tied with
ropes, awaited them.
The splendid parade, as it really was,
proved a feature highly interesting to
the Mobiles as we'll as the hundreds of
spectators who cheered the fez wearers
upon their way.
Americus proved indeed an oasis
fringed with locust trees and flowing
with cancels milk.
Seated upon gorgeous float, drawn
by four gray horses, were Illustrious
Potentate E. A. Cults and his royal
suite arrayed in splendid garb, in COM
parlson with which Joseph's coat of
many colors would have borne a very
three dimey appearance
Col. Crawford Wheatley, as grand
marshal, preceded the pageant. while
outriders, camel men and muleteers,
| likewise CARRIED in splendor, followed
the royal float.
Next came the Mobiles, fifty strong,
strikingly handsome in dress suits and
fez, while behind them was the corps of
blanket tossers, muscular tribesmen of
Yamacraw, who sent little darkies
nearer skyward than they had hoped
ever reaching.
This was one of the many star feat
ures of the parade and afforded much
amusement.
Last in the pageant, dressed IN gowns
of white and all securely roped, came
the score of "unregenerates" who rode
the camel and did other stunts later.
Quite probably all of these are alive
but quite sore this morning.
After the parade the Mobiles assem-
bled at Masonic Hall TO inspect the in
struments of torture and examine the
novices.
The ceremonials lset night were evil
IDENTIFY of nature quite mirth-provok-
ing and hllarious,t to Judge by the over
flow of laughter from the hall. At q
later hour banquet was served at the
Hotel Windsor where good fellowship
and good cheer prevailed.
The Savannah contingent left at 1920
o'clock last night. Many prominent
Georgians were among the Mobiles thus
aasamh led here

CHRONIC CATARRH CURED,
Hyomei's Wonderful Action in Curing
a Case of Thirty Years Standing.
Guaranteed by J, c. Dodson.

a Case of Thirty Years Standing.
Guaranteed by j. G. Dodson.
Do not try to cure catarrh by taking
drugs into the stomach. It cannot be
cured in that manner, The only way In
which this common disease can be cur
ed is through direct application that
will kill the germs of catarrh and pre-
vent their growth. Hyomei is the only
known method of treatment that ac>
complIshes this. It is the simplest,
most pleasant, and only absolute cure
for catarrh that has ever been discovered
Mrs. G. A. Derby, of Beverly Mass :,
writes "My husband has had catarrh
trouble for thirty years and Hyomei is
the first thing which has ever helped
him. He had catarrh In it's worst form
and nothing except Hyomei evor had any
effect on it whatever. This gave him
relief from the first and he has steadily
improved, until now he is cured !"
J. Ct. Dodson has so much confidence
in the power of Hyomei to cure catalrh
that he will sell the treatment under his
personal guarantee to refund the money
if the purchasers can say it did not
benefit.

Iones Thinks Democratic
Victory Now is Assured.

New York, Sept. 25.-After max
Ing careful study OF political con-
ditions throughout the country, for
mer Senator James X. Jones, who
was for eight years chairman OF the
Democratic National Committee,
predicts victory for his party.
A month ago Mr.. Jones was much
less optimistic In his view than many
other Democrats, and his present
confidence, therefore, is encouraging
to Democrats who are not entirely
satisfied with the outlook.
"The confidence Of the Democratic
party OF the Colon in success at the
polls this year is well illustrated by
the great numbers of high-class
nominations for governors which
have been made in all parts II the
country" says Mr.. Jones.
NO assertion is made by the Re
publicans that any one OF the States
which they concede to the Demo
cratic candidate for President will
this year elect Republican Cover
nor. This condition presents one Of
the most interesting and peculiar
features OF the campaign, and shows
in forceful manner the aggressive
canvass which ia being waged by the
party all over the country.
"The nomination Of Judge D. Cady
Herrick for Governor OF New York is
regarded as guaranteeing the great
est state in the Union to the Democ
racy. Judge Robertson, Democratic
candidate Tor Governor in Connecti
cut, is known to be very strong
candidate, and his election is looked
for.
"In the Middle West the Democracy
is also putting it's best foot forward,
and excellent nominations have been
made In states further west"
