ECHOES OF WAR DAYS.
Clippings From The Files Of An Old
Virginia Newspaper

The Vicksburg Wing states that
from $500 to $1,000 were collected there
few days ago under the tariff laws Of
the new confederacy.
"Virginius, writing from Charles
ton to the Kichmo ond Dispatch, says:
"How is it that all the women of your
state are secessionists? A lady writes
to Virginius saying that she had rather
come south and pick cotton than re-
mann under black Republican rule.
I have heard Virginia SO highly extoll-
ed for her gallantry and patriotism
that I have often thought I should
like to have been born on her soil, but

so much about it, and content myself

A Charming Woman.

Is one who is lovely in face, form,

a woman to be charming without
health. A weak, sickly woman will

wretched complexion But Electric
Bitters always prove a godsend to

COUNCIL CONSIDERED DOGS
Several Had Died Supposedly of Hy-
drophObia, But No Action Was
Taken in the Matter.

Recently stray dog, said to have
come from somewhere around Bron-
wood, struck the city with every ap-
pearance of having hydrophobia and
bit several dogs here while on the
rampage. Three or four of these
dogs have since developed symptoms
OF the rabies and have either died
or been killed and others are being
kept confined by their owners.
The city council at a meeting
Thursday afternoon discussed the
matter with a view of doing some
thing for the public safety, but ad-
journed without taking action of any
kind.
In this connection it may be said
that Dawson has from time to time
had various and sundry dog laws
requiring them to be muzzled, to be
Kept at home, and a tax paid on
them-but the most distinguishing
feature in connection with each ST
these ordinances was it's non-enforce-
NEST and early repeal.
The dog reigns supreme in Daw-
son, and seems to be one of the
things that cannot be controlled or
regulated by law.

CHANGES IN RURAL ROUTES
Carriers on Four of Them Will De-
liver Mail to Residents of the
City Every Morning.

In order to serve residents within
the corporate limits of Dawson who
are not served by the city delivery
service the following changes IN rural
routes 3, 4, and from Dawson
have been ordered by the postoffice
department at Washington:
On route No. the carrier, on leav-
ing the city, will travel Stonewall
street instead of Main street.
A part of route No will be re-
versed, and the carrier will leave the
city by north Center street and turn
into the Dawson and Brentwood road
from east Fourteenth street.
The carrier on route No. instead
of entering the city by Crawford
street will drive west on the road
parallel with the Central railroad
towards the station until he reaches
north Ash street, then turn south and
travel Ash street until he reaches
east Fourteenth avenue, thence west
on east Fourteenth avenue to north
Lemon street, and thence south on
Lemon and intersecting streets to the
postoffice.
These changes in the rural routes
will give nearly the entire population
of Dawson house delivery of mail.
Persons who secure the rural ser
vice, however, will be required to
place boxes on the street in front of
their homes so that the carrier may
serve them without dismounting
