At meeting of the City Board

restrictions were practically re-

except people from counties where
fever actually existed. 1t is with
a prayer of gratitude that We say
we believe all danger is past.
Much credit is due Mayor Gunter

the tactful manner in handling
this matter. Columbus is consid-
cred one OF the healthiest towns in
the South, and especially this fall
as our city has had but little sick

f0-19-3t

The death of Mrs. Anna Mayo
which occurred at her home on
North Market street on Monday
afternoon, was indeed a great
shock to h r hosts of friends
throughout the city. Although
in failing health, yet, no one
realized that death was so near.
She had just returned from a visit
to her daughter, Mrs. Frank Har-
ris, in the country feeling much
stronger, until Monday evening,
when she gradually grew worse
and peacefully passed a w a y.
Not only by profession but in her
daily walk and conversation did
Mrs. Mayo exemplify a beautiful
christian spirit; seeking no ap-
plause, caring only to admins
ter to those in need of spiritual
and material comfort, ever in her
sweet quiet way. Two sons and
three daughters survive, and to
these sorrowlng ones countless
friends are offering true genuine
symp thy from overflowing
hearts. The funeral was held
from the First Baptist Church,
the church of her heart, in which
she had labored faithfully and
long, Rev. w. A. Hewitt assisted
by Rev. j. D. Ogden, conduct
the last sad ceremony. Miss
Brown sang "Nearer the Great
White Throne" after which the
body was tenderly laid to rest in
Friendship Cemetery. Messrs.
s. ID. Lee, T. O. Burris, B. A.
Weaver, F. M. Jacob, DR.. A. A.

STATE PRISON REPORT.
INCREASE OF ONLY NINE C0NVICTS FOR
TWO YFARS.
Governor PardOned More Prisoners Than
Died During the Biennial Term--The Es-
cape Register Was Also Large.

The statistical features for the
biennial report of the prison board
of control have been completed
and makes very interesting
showing, says the ia skson News.
The figures reveal that there
was an increase of just nine con-
victs in the prison population for
the two year period ending Oc-
tober 1 t. On the 30th of Sep
tember, 1903, the penitentiary
contained 1,102 convicts. During
the period of two years that fol-
lowed 608 new convicts were re-
ceived and twenty-five prisoners
who had previously escaped were
recaptured, making gross prison
population of 1915 for the bien-
nial term.
From the above number the
following deductions were made:
Discharged, AT; escaped, 81;
died, 76; pardoned, 90; returned
for new trial, 3; total deduction,
7O6; total convicts on hand Oct.
1, 1,109.
The increase is remarkably
small, especially in view of the
fact that there has been a marked
increase in crime in the State
during the biennial period, which
would rather indicate that the
courts have not been exceedingly
strict in enforcing the law.
1t will be also noticed that the
pardons are considerably in ex-
cess of deaths. In fact, the par
dons have amounted to nearly 10
per cent, of the entire prison
population.

The Only Way.

There is no way to maintain the health
and strength OF mind and body except
by nourishment. There is no way to
nourish except through the stomach.
The stomach must be kept healthy, pure
and sweet or the strength will let down
and disease will set up. No appetite,
loss of strength, nervousness, headache,
constipation, bad breath, sour risings,
rifting, indigestion, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles that are durable are
quickly cured by the use of Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure. Kodol digests what you
eat and strengthens the whole digestive
apparatus. Sold by Chapman 8; May

SIN an opinion to the Board of
Supervisors of Simpson county,
Attorney yGeneral Williams de-
clares that the Board of Super.
visors must allow the accounts of
county health officers for blanks
used in issuing health certificates
during the guarantees. The State
Board of Health in a general or.
der declined to recognize any
certificates which were paid for
and this of course, implies that
the health officer himself should
not have to pay for the blanks.
The Attorney Generald holds that
it is the duty of the Board OF Su-
pervisors to furnish all county
officers all necessary articles used
in the transaction of their official
business, under section 300 of the
code. This view has been sus-
tanned by the Supreme Court in
the case of Downing vs. Kinds
county. The Attorney General
further holds that county health
officer is county officer under
the meaning of this section, and
therefore entitled to the benefits

All is Good.

Life is made of sun and rain,
Pleasure intertwined with pain,
Desert wastes and gardens fair,
Hope and happiness and care,
But all of it is good;
Skies of blackness, skies of blue,
False or tickle, good or true,
Sun or shadow, light or gloom,
Blight or waste or fadeless bloom
All of it is good.
Life is made of love and hate,
Humble things and good and great,
Sin and sorrow, strife and fears,
Grief and tenderness and tears,
But all of it is good.
Victory and grim defeat,
Finished things and incomplete,
Buds that end in sudden blight,
Dusk and dawn and day and night,
All of it is good.
Life is made of signs and song,
Peace and plenty, right and wrong,
Pity, passion, praise and blame.
Greatness, lowliness and shame,
But all of it is good.
Out of chaos order wakes,
Out of midnight morning breaks,
After grief we find release,
Death filings wide the doors of peace,
All of it is good.

Southern man.


In the New England states, in
the East and West, as compared
with the South, there are but few
negroes. but will any Southern
man knowing the condition of the
Southern states, particularly the
far Southern states, be willing to
concede any measure, regardless
of it's merits, that will require his
family to travel in the same coach
with the indiscriminate class of
negroes that travel-with the laws
separating the races eradicated
by partisan commission? We
ask the Southern man, the con-
ditions arising, snould those that
he holds dearest have to travel
alone in the coaches with the
turpentine hands of Georgia or
the phosphate workers of Florida.
The Chambers of the North are

to themselves, trying to push an
insidious wedge against t h 9

The slim Crow" Argument.

Ex- Senator Chandler. of New
Hampshire, says the use of the
Jim Grow law argument in the
Southern States is too trifling to
be used by the railroads in defeat
ing the "Esch- Townsend bill"-
claiming that Mr.. Spencer, pres
ident of the Southern, has used
it. This Mr.. Spencer denies, and
as The News has already said,
between Mr.. Spencer, the South
ern gentleman, and the South
hating ex-senator, it is useless to
discuss which statement will be
given credence.
While the president of a great
system has refrained from using
this argument, confining himself
solely to the commercial disaster
that the passage of the bill would
entail on the South our exchanges
show widespread uneasiness in
the South at h suggestion
claimed to have been made by
the ex-senator that on the pas
sage of the Esch-Townsend bill
the commission appointed under
the bill would abolish the discrim-
ination against the negro by a
separation of the races on the
Southern transportation lines.
This condition naturally appeals
to the Chambers, the Ogdens and
Vanamakers of the North, but is
repuisive to every self-respecting

Every woman and every decent

press the corner loafer. Sunday
evening twenty eight specimens
of this rowdy type were arrested
and the police say they will get
more of them. The corner loafer
is the cheapest, most cowaroly
and most despisable of the minor
law breakers. The gang on the
corner is the school of the Grim
inal. The step from rowdyism to
stealing is a short cne and once
embarked on that course the street
loafer usually follows it until it
leads him into either the work.
