OPERATION ENTIRE SUCCESS.
Little Two YeaF-Old Girl Returned
Home Well As Ever.

Little Two Year-Old Girl Returned
Home Well As Ever.
Little Elizabeth Newman, the two
year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
]. B. Newman. Of Live Oak, Fla, who
was operated upon for appendicitis
at the Macon Hospital September z.
leaves that institution today for her
home, cured. t,.t
The fully developed case Of appen-
dicitis in so young a child has caused
much wonder among the local ply
sicians and surgeons, and when the
case was first brought to the atten-
ton of the hospital authorities they
could hardly believe they had made
a proper diagnosis The little two
year-Old girl underwent the danger
Gus and painful operation successful
ly, however, and has been GONZALES
ing since coming from the operating
table.
Though it Is considered a wonder
that the case was appendicitis, is
seemed equally as strange that the
effects Of the operation could be over
come by the child. The operation,
especially delicate in this instance,
was performed by DR.. Howard J..
Williams.
Though little Elizabeth is too
young to understand now how mar
rowly she escaped the call of death
and she will be glad to again be able
to nurse her dOllies, and enjoy her
self as she did before her trip from
her home in Florida to see the doc
tors.
Elizabeth has learned that despite
the necessary pain she has suffered
while at the hospital, that the pleas
ant faced doctors and the pretty
and gentle nurses are all her friends,
and were doing all in their power to
relieve her and make her well.
They too, have learned to love the
brave little girl, and big loss, large
indeed when compared to the size
the little girls body, will be felt
when she goes away today.-Maeon
Telegraph.
Mrs. Newman and little Elizabeth
arrived home safely night before
last, and the little patient stood the
trip exeellently.

It's about to come on in Cuba IN
less all signs fail. Those people we're

about century too soon. They are

The unusual prevalence of poison
Gus snakes in Florida at this season
makes any suggestion in the public
press of a remedy for snake bite
reading matter of the first class. DR..
E. F. Brown, of Lake City, with an
experience of thirty-fiVe years in the
practice of medicine in Florida, sends
to the Christian Advocate the follow
ing remedy:
II consider tincture of iodine a
specific in all cases of snake bite My
method is to apply the tincture to
the wound, undiluted, and put ten or
fifteen drops into a glass, adding
one teaspoonful of water for each
drop of tincture, and give the patient
one teaspOOnful of the mixture every
ten minutes until the pain begins to
grow less severe then every half
hour, OF hour, as the case seems to
require, and continue this treatment
as long as seems necessary. If the
bite is very bad one, l would double
the quantity"

The growth and increasing inhu-
enee Of the press of Florida is a sure
and gratifying proof OF the progress
of the State, not merely in material
things. but in the enlightened public
sentiment and general educational
interests for which the press distinct
ly and alphabetically stands. A no
table proof of this is furnished by the
recent great "Housewarming Edi-
ton" of the Pensacola Journal and
some figures given of the remarkable
growth of that paper Frank Mayes
took hold of it several years ago,
when it had a pay roll of SIS per
week and q circulation of 500. Nov
It's pay roll is $500 per week and it's
circulation is $40. 1t has a stan,
including editorial, business and
mechanical departments of thirty
three people, and it has Just moved
into its own home, expressly designed
and built for its use, and one Of the
handsomest newspaper Offices in the
Gulf States. There's progress for
you. and while it rejects the highest
credit upon Mr.. Mayes and his loyal
assistants, it has an even wider signi-
feanee in the proof it gives of the
rapid growth in numbers of news
papers readers in West Florida.
which is but another phrase for the
rapid progress In Intelligence among
the masses Of the people. And what
is true Of Pensacola In this respect
is true all over Florida.

After all, it rests solely with the
negroes as to whether the two races
shall live together in peace in the
South We delight to believe that
a large majority of the negro race
is peaeeable, sane and safe, but it
rests with this majority to say
whether it will cooperate with the
whites to bring the lawless and dang
erous minority to terms and keep it
in submission TO the law. The en-
cOuragement of race clannishness by
negro preachers and teachers will be
fatal to this end.

The New York World telesraPhe5
to John Temple Graves at Atlanta TO
know how the Northern press could
help the cause of right in the soIu-
sicn OF the Southern negro problems
and John wired back this reply,
which proves him q wise man in a
great emergency: You can help BY
giving two paragraphs to the denun-
citation Of rape where you give one
to the denunelation Of lynching-
And there you have it in a nutshell
John Temple deserves well of his
people for wasting no words in burn
ing rhetoric on the subject and going
right to the core in a brief para
graph. The South has never been
treated with simple justice by the
Northern press in this matter, as a
rule, for the papers up there have
persistently minimized the atrOcious
and intoierable crime that has
brought on the lynching and have
burdened their columns with denun-
Citations of the South for thus aveng-
ing the wrongs to our women If
the pregnant words of Mr.. Graves
shall be widely circulated they may
help to work a long-needed change
in the attitude of the Northern press.

THE EvANGELlSTic MEETINGS.
Opera House Engaged for Sunday A.
ternoon and Evening.

The slippery travelling didn't prevent
tie people coming out to the meeting
last evening in large numbers.
Mr.. Dunnack reported that two FAM
lilies, unable to attend the meetings
had sent for him TO pray with them as
they were seeking personal salvation
The true spirit is evidently working in
the community.
. A testimony meeting was held at
which at least hundred persons par
ticipated.
Mr. Green's text for the evening was
from Isaiah. 18th chapter and 6th and
9Th verses: "Seek We the Lord while
lie may be found. and call upon Him
while He is near" etc. He showed the
necessity of salvation for the hardened
sinner as well as the respectable sin
ner, and that the Lord is always ready
to hear the cry Of the penitent. 1t was
faithful and convincing sermon.
There will be chidren's service in
the vestry at 3 o'clock this afternoon:
No services this evening.
Sunday will be the great day of the
feast. The Opera house, has been Sc
cured and services will be held there

In the opening round il looked as if
the bout was destined to BE- an inter-
csting one. as both boys mixed things
mp pretty lively. but before the gong
sounded il became evident that the
Philadelphia boxer was up against Il
proposition that ne could not solve,
and from that time the contest was
sided. In the fourth round Love
got a tap ON the side of the head that
dropped him To the mat where h" lay

Before the main bout two prelimin-
