Atlanta, Ca. Jan. 29-No negro troops from
Georgia will attend the inauguration of President

mission to the colored companies to leave the
State.
The Lincoln Guards of Macon commanded
by Sandy Lockhart, had already made arrange

port has it that the company will attempt to go

Some time ago a notice sent around to
the troops of the State, asking if any OF them
desired to attend the inauguration of the Presi-

POOR YEAR FOR CANALS,
Total Decrease in Tonnage Was
476,856, Says Boyd.

Albany Jan. 29.-In tonnage results the last sea-
son was the poorest the canals of the State have
seen for the last ten years The following reasons
for this are given In the annual report of Charles
s. Boyd, who recently retired State Superintend
ent Of Public Works:
First-A strike among the lake freight handIers
beginning with the opening of lake traffic and ex-
tending into midsummer. Second-The excessively
low freight rates, which directly attributable
TO the freight handlers strike. Third-The Limited
number Of boats in condition to be safely placed
in commission the canals, every year growing
limited.
Nevertheless says Mr.. Boyd. many features were
most favorable for navigation, among other things
the fact that there break of a serious char
acter along the whole length OF the canals after
the opening of the season; there an inter
ruption TO navigation for other cause for more
than few hours at time, and then only on sepa-
rate levels occasioned by local causes.
The total Of S.1SS547 tons carried on the canals
in the season made uo of 1597.765 tons way
freight East, a decrease from 1903 OF $3.50 tons:
$50 SIC tons way freight West, decrease OF I75SO1
tons from the previous year; 550106 tons through
freight East. a decrease OF 1892 tons from the
previous year; through freight West T60 cons

SATURDAY, MAY 6, 1905.


A representative of the Messen-
ger met Mr.. Il. c. Ducbamp, the
able and successful manager of the
Electric Light and Water Works,
at the power house Tuesday even
ing and he took pleasure in showing
all the improvements which have
recently been malc at this plant.
Two oil tanks were added, giving
storing capacity for fuel oil for
one month, and having a pump
connected to the pipe line to pump
the oil from the tank cars at the
Iai road station, thus handling the
oil without cost. Another pump
was put up to supply the oil to the
burners, making two pumps, one
always ready for use in case of
trouble or accident to other pump,
also an injector was installed TO
be used in case of trouble with the
pump feeding water to the boilers.
With two separate boilers and two
separate double acting fire pumps,
we feel that are well protected
against fire. Bayou connections
were also made, and water can be
pumped from the well, the Bayou
or the reservoir. Aside from all
these double machineries the
plant, in charge of the two compe-
tent engineers, Messrs. Robert
Thomas and Aug. Clement, is kept |
in first class order and condition..
every piece of machinery is kept
as clean as it is possible TO keep

ing like clock work. This plant,
we can venture to say, is perhaps
the cleanest in the state, and la
dies can visit this plant in their
daintiest white dresses without
fear of soiling them by coming in
contact with any part of the ma
chinery, even in the boiler room.
