SWIPE OF SEAB'S GRIP
LEFT HIM IN PICKLE
Packed Pajamas in Pillow Case
and Adjourned.

ATLANTA, Aug. 20.-When the
Hon. Seaborn Wright of Floyd, got
ready to leave for his home in Rome
after the adjournment of the legisla-
ture, he suddenly discovered that his
dress suit case was missing. 1t might
have been that some of the souIess
corporations or the liquor interests
had caused his yalise to be swiped, but
the important features was that it
was missing and Mr. Wright had to
catch his train. His clothes were ly-
ing around without any thing to put
them in and he didn't know what he
was going to do. Suddenly a bright
Idea came to him. Shocking a pillow
case off of its contents, Mr. Wright
bundled up his clothes and stuffed
them into it. He then had barely a
few minutes to catch the aforesaid
train, but with the pillow case full of
clothes over his shoulder he made it,
He asked for the return of his dress
suit case if it should be located and
promised to send the pillow case
back.

MAY PROVE FATAL
When VIII Americas People Learn
the Importance of It!

Backache is only a simple thing at
first;
But when you know tbs from the
kidneys;
That serious kidney troubles fol-
low;
That diebatis, Bright's disease may
be the fatal end,
You will gladly profit by the fol-
lowing experience.
'Tis the statement of an Americas
citizen:
J. NJ Oliver, wagon painter, with
shop on Cotton avenue and Jefferson
streets, Americas, Ga, and living on
the outskirts of Americas, has used
Doan's Kidney Pills and states his
opinion of them as follows: He says,
"They are a fine remedy. / used them
them very ache and can recommend
them very highly. They did for me
what everything else failed to do.
They drove the backache out of my
back and relieved me of misery, from
which l had been suffering for long
time. The trouble was a constant
heavy ache right across the small of
my back, and disorder of the kid
neys. The secretions were in bad
condition, being dark, full Of sedi-
ment and irregular. Medicines for
internal use failed to help me and so
did liniments. l read of how others
had been cured by Doan's Kidney
Pills, and deciding to try them got
a box. Since taking them the pain
has left my back, the kidneys are
working normally, the secretions are
in a natural condition and l feel bet
ter in many ways"

TO SAVE THE TREES
IN GRADE OF ROAD
City Sustains No Damage In
Grade of Chruch Street.

Residents of Church street will be
pleased to learn that, in the grading
and curbing of that street the beau
tifuI shade trees, giant oaks thai
have stood for more than a half cen.
fury, will not be cut down or other
wise injured.
There are no handsomer trees in
the city than the double row of large
oaks on Church street.
This street, west of Jackson, is
soin to be graded and granite, curb
ed, and fear was expressed lest the
cutting away of some of the beauti-
full trees might be necessary.
1t is proposed however, to lay the
curbing outside the tree line, and in
this manner avoid the necessity of
cutting down a tree.
In this connection the city council
should be urged to- look more closely
after the trees on residence streets,
and to plant others at the city's ev-
pense. This work could be done by
the street force at odd times, and all
the streets made beautiful.
The season of tree planting will
soon be here, and it is to be hoped
the suggestion thus made will re-
ceive consideration.

POWER is GIVEN
NEW BOARD OF FIVE
Railroad Commission Has Pow
er of the Gar.

Americas merchants and shippers
as all Others, are interested in the
selection of the two new railroad
commissioners increasing that body
from three to FIVE, as the new board
is fully expected to bring about a
revolution in the conduct of railroad
affairs
The Governor will appoint the two
new members shortly.
1t is admitted that the Gambler
Overstreet public utility bill is one Of
the most far-reaching and powerful
measures of that character ever en-
acted into law. 1t places in the
hands of five men, who will be in
perfect accord with the views of the
governor, tremendous powers.
They can regulate not only pas
senger and freight rates, but the
rates on street car lines, the bust
ness of cotton congresses, the tele-
graph and telephone tolls and the
express business. They can regu-
late the charges for steamheating in
cities.
In fact, will hold sway over every
public utility corporation doing bus
mess in Georgia.
And their orders are final. Cor
porations cannot go into courts over
the head of the commission. Heavy
penalty is fixed for such attempts
The bill also provides for action to
be brought directly against the con-
trolling powers of a great corpora
ton.

the price remains at a figure altoge-
Their pleasing. Staple of good quail

is slow sale at any price.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, August 20.
-'Rotgut whiskey is killing many
of the old soldiers" asserted General
George B. Loud, of New York, presi-
dent of the Third Massachusetts Cav
airy Association, who is now visiting
in Springfield. Il would destroy all
the liquor on earth if l could said
General Loud. But ! believe that
when the w. C. T. u brought about
the abolition of the canteen it pretty
nearly wiped out all of the great good
the famous women's organization has
accomplished in years against the
liquor evil.
Il have been visiting in Maine, and
while there called on an old friend,
who is Governor of the Soldiers Home
at Togus, where there are 1900 men.
The day ] was there two suicides were
buried Their deaths were due to
the abolition of the canteen. Since
the canteen was done away with a
great number of club privileges have
been lost because they were paid for
out of canteen profits. That is one
reason why the men go outside the
homes. These men were the kind
that would enjoy a glass of beer in
the canteen and not drink to excess,
and drink only beer, as no other IL
quor was sold.

Sell Only Cheapest of Whiskey.

Both suicides, wanting liquor, had
gone to one of the low dives, that
grew up around the post when the
canteen was abolished. These dives
sell nothing but whiskey, and the
whiskey is enough to kill the man
anyway. A little investigation that
resulted from agitation against the
dives showed that the whiskey costs
80 cents a gallon and is sold for %
cents per half pint OF course, such
whiskey is composed of alcohol and
injurious adulterants.
THE canteens were conducted care
fully with proper restrictions, and
while they existed the men were salts
fed and there were no outside dives
as there was no business for them
am hopeful that the next Congress
will sanction the establishment OF
the canteen.

SOU. PACIFIC MAY
 SECURE CONTROL
Rumored that Phoenix & Eastern May Pass to Hartman System-Through Line to Traverse Central Part of the Territory Seems Certain.

Rumors are consistently circulated concerning the probable transfer of the Phoenix & Eastern railroad property to the control of the Southern Pacific sys- tenn All efforts made to verify them at authoritative sources have been fu- tile, nevertheless such transaction continues to be referred to by men who are locally supposed to know something about the railroad situation.
 It is known that the Southern Pa and it is reported that work is going on at Winkleman in the extension of the Arizona & Eastern line up the Gila box canyon. Whether this is merely to provide an outlet for the Saddle Noun tain Mining company, the natural rail road point for which is few miles above Winkleman, or whether it IS for continuous constructive operations be- yond that point has not yet been made clear to those who are watching the sit uation.
 That some sort of an agreeable ar rangement between the roads was en- tered into long time ago, respecting box canyon, to the effect that the Ari- zona Eastern should operate that sec ton of the proposed line, seems quite evident. Whether that also means an arrangement whereby the same com pany will assume control of the P. & E. as now built and operated, seems still to be an open question and one of considerable interest. It is likely that some authoritative announcement
