 A Georgia poet sings. Lets be happy" Every person in Georgia is nerving him- self for the shock January 1. JUST so.

Railroad Rate Confu,

"A prominent railroad man said travelling man, that tn fusion worst confounded in question all over the south this: A man wishes to go to ton; if he goes via the Southern he will travel 11S miles in Alaba the latest ordered rate of 2% mile, He passes through Geo miles with rate of 2h cents D, and next 122 miles through Souti lima with the old rate of 3 cents into North Carolina 1S0 miles wi statutory rate of 2A cents, and journey of 247 miles in Virginia commission rate of cents a mil reaches Washington. On a 2la cent rale the fare from Birmingham to w ington is about $21. Now, if man chases 10O0-mile ticket at 2h ce per mile, he cannot use it in No Carolina, because of the statutory ra of 2it cents, which forbids the Southe railroad or any other main line to char over 2A cents per mile for passeng, travel.
 .'It is said that the 2% cent rate mac by Governor Conner with certain railroad is illegal, for the reason that he mas T authority in law. or by legislative ae to make any such rate by agreement, otherwise, and that therefore those ral roads who had put into use the 2h eel rate are still selling tickets at that rate

CARNEGIE RICHES
GROWING GREATER
Birthday Of
Scotch PhiIanthrOpiSt.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-(SpeciaD -
Andrew Carnegie will tomorrow
celebrate his SEVENTEEN birth
day in his Fifth ave-
nue. home with his wife and daugh-
ter. Some authorities give 1885 as
the year of Mr.. Carnegie's birth, but
the famous philanthropist himself as
serts that it was in 1887 that the light
first came to his eyes over the heath
er of his native Scotland.
He appears today to be in as rug
ged health as if in all his seventy
years he had been free and wild in
the land O cakes by brae and burn,
instead of amassing millions to
give away with a conscience pang
that it is not good to die rich
Mr. Carnegie continues to give his
millions in an endeavor to become
poor, but each year he is finding it a
more difficult matter to bestow his
wealth judiciously. The gift of Ii
braries was a great thing while it
lasted and through this medium Mr.
Carnegie managed to part from about
$50,000,000. When nearly every place
of consequence in the United States
and Canada and many places in Eu-
rope as well had been supplied with
libraries, the Observation-Disclosures
list conceived the idea of the Carnegie
Pension Fund for teachers in colleg-
es and schools, which he endowed
with $10,000,000 Then came the
Carnegie Hero Fund, which afforded
an outlet for several million dollars.
Now with his vast fortune ever in
creasing, Mr.. Carnegie is at somewhat
of a loss to find judicious outlets of
philanthropy and beneficence any
where near in proportion to his in
come. Though he has given millions
away during the past twelve months,
principally to colleges and universe
ties, it is probable that he is richer
than he was on his last birthday

The Story ola Medicine.

It's name-"Golden Medical Discovery

ant and valuable ingredients = Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago, DR.. Pierce dis
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
triple-refned glycerne, aided by a GER
tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose. eX-
tract from our most valuable native me-
dicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use Of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed uGolden Medical Discovery" for
the cure of weak stomach, Indigestion. or
dyspepsia, torpid liver, or biliousnesS and
kindred arrangements was 1rst MADE, as
It ever since has b&en, without particle
of alcohol in its maee-up.

SAYS III Is FACT.
DOdsOn'S Pharmacy Confirm Guar.
antee ON HyOmei, Cure for
Catarrh.

The question having been raised as
to whether or no Dodson's Pharmacy
will refund the money if Hyomei
outfit does not do all that is claimed
for it in curing catarrh, they want to
state positively that this guarantee is
an absolute fact.
A guarantee like this is the best
proof that can be offered as to the
curative powers of Hyomef in all ca
tarrhal troubles. You do not risk a
cent in testing it's healing virtues,
Dodson's Pharmacy take all the risk.
If you have catarrh, try this won
deful medicated air of Hyomei. 1t
does not drug or derange the stom-
ach, but is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, so that its medication reaches
the most remote air cells in the nose,
throat and lungs, where any catar-
rhal germs may be lurking. 1t
quickly destroyes them, heals and
soothes the irrated mucous MEM
brane and vitalizes the tissues so that
catarrh is no longer possible. You
can loose nothing by giving HyOmei
trial, nothing but the catarrh and
that is good radiance.
The price of the complete outfit is
but $100; nothing if it fails to cure.
Get an outfit from Dodson's Pharma-
cy today and begin it's use at once.

CfLLUL0lD COLLARS
FIRED BY CURRENT
MOtOrman'S Plight PreCip-
itated Panic.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Nov. 25.-
Especially james Glenn, motor
man of Barring street car, was
badly burned yesterday as his car was
passing along Market street at
Twelfth, when his celluloid collar
caught fire as a result of the flash
from the controller box.
Men crowded the front platform
when the flash came. The flame
struck the motorman in the face and
passed upward through the box on
the hood of the platform
Instantly the celluloid collar en-
circling Glenn's throat caught fire
and the fame spread to the mans
shirt and coat. He screamed and be-
gan tugging desperately at his throat.
No one tried to aid him. Instead
men standing near unlocked the side
gates and jumped off the car in a
panic. Then the passengers within
the car sprang up in fright and ran
TO the rear. Women screamed and
Tell over one another in their haste
TO get to the street.
The motorman, who had apparently
lost his wits, forgot to turn off the
power and the car kept on at good
speed across Thirteenth street until
it reached a point opposite No. 1905
Market street, where it was brought
to a standstill by Edward Hand, for
merly a traction conductor, who
had sufficient presence of mind to
draw the trolley pole from the wire
aud put on the rear brake.
