Croft defeats BelliDger for Congress from the Second, and Aiken Smith from the Third Districts. The other Congressmen are: Legare, Finley, Johnson, Scarborough and Lever. There was a very good attendance at the meeting of the State Committee Friday night. As soon as the committee had been called to order. Col. Jones announced that the tabulation of the figures had already been earefully made from the official returns by himself and Secretary Parks. At once a committee of five was appointed, with Governor McSweeney as chairman, to examine the tabulation. The chairman was then authorized to find what constitutional amendments are to be voted upon in the ^general election in November and have tickets printed and sent to the polls. Col. Crews called the committee's -attention to one of the rules requiring voters to put ballots in their proper boxes. He thought it was wrong to throw out ballots placed in the State box. Mr. Williams showed that if such votes were not thrown out a voter can easily vote twice?say two tickets for county offices and vice versa. Col. Crews knew that the counting of such tickets had been done and he thought it right. He wanted the matter settled and made uniform. He finally moved that a county ticket if bund in a State box and vice versa. Mr. Blease moved to amend the motion so that none be counted when there was an excess of vote over the poll list. Governor McS weeney said he hoped that the committee would throw more 4- 4V, A OTTof eaicguaxuo auuuu IIUC ^/nuiaij ojoioui. If a man made the error in the box it was bis own unfortnnate mistake. The primary should be most carefully guarded. Managers of elections could tell the voter which box was which. He wanted every white man to vote and not lose his vote, but to go to this extent would let in too much laxity. Col. Crews' motion was finally voted down. Gov. McSweeney then read the report of the committee on tabulation, showing the results given above, the report being adopted. Mr. Blease offered a resolution to require ail clubs to reorganize before the next primary election, as provided in the State party constitution. Some bad failed to do so this year, be said. This resolution was merely intended to be a warniDg. The resolution was adopted. The governor then offered a resolution of thanks to Chairman Jones and Secretary Parks, which was unanimously adopted. Col. Jones made a few appropriate remarks complimenting the secretaries who have served with him for six years, Messrs. Gunter and Parks. Deafness Cannot be Cured By local applications, as they cannot reach the deceased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When ibis tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destoyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can not be cured by Hall s (Jatarrh (Jure, bend for circulars, free. F. J. Cheney & Co. Toledo, 0.

The new drop-yokes produce the effect of very drooping shoulders and are shown in many of the newest models with the yoke of all-over lace extending over the sleeves. Seams in slot effect remain the distinguishing note in many of the new skirts and jackets and also in the smart shirt-waists. There is nothing dainter than wellmade and exquisitely decorated lingerie and since the vogue of faggoi ing gownp, separate yokes, collars, etc., is at its height, this dainty needlework is likewise ' applied to underwear. The stitch employed is usually the plain faggoting or herringbone. There is a wide assortment of heavy-textured or "mannish" goods as they are termed, any one of which is appropriate for jacket-and-ekirt suite. ? Boulevard velvet cords are shown in wide assortment of colors, and there is no more fashionable material for walking or street costumes. Embroidery and fancy stitches are the inevitable mark of distinction on everything from the dainty stock-collar Jo the even daintier hose. Fashion has decreed the extensive use of pendant and ball trimmings this season, and a great variety is exhibited. Both black and colored samples are procurable, as well as bits of metal aDd enamel from which iridescent b$ads and spangles are suspended^ The possibilities or velvet ribbon as an ornamental trimming have won for it the highest popularity in trimming net, chiffon and light woollens. ?The Delineator. ' i Beware of the Knife. No profession has advanced more rapidly of late than surgery, but it should not be used except where absolutely necessary. In cases of piles for example, it is seldom needed. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cures quickly and permanently. Unequaled for cuts, burns, bruises, wounds, skin diseases. Accept no counterfeits. "I was so troubled with bleeding piles that I lost much blood and strength," says J. C. Phillips, Paris, III. "DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cured me in a short time." Soothes and heals. J. E. Kaufmann. The Southern Kailway will in the course of a few weeks put on a fast mail train between New York and New Orleans, which will reduce tl? time between New York and Atlanta to twenty-two hours. At first the train will carry only mail and baggage cars, though it is the intention of the management to add passenger equipment as soon as the fast schedule has been given a complete trial.

A decision rendered by the comptroller of the treasury that navy funds cannot be used to entertain Congressmen or other officials invited by Secretary Moody to witness the coming manoeuvres has doubtless spoiled a pleasant outing for some distinguished statesmen. The comptroller was once a Congressman and, therefore, knows a thing or two about junkets, and the cold, distant manner with which he intimates that he does not see that any good will inure to the navy from the presence of the Congressmen gives rise to the suspicion that he is laughing in his sleeve while he digs Mr. Moody's would-be guests in the ribs.?Baltimore News.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor tand cheerfulness soon disappear when the kidneys arc out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kidneys. If the child urin _ ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.

Notably among the colored heroes of the revolutionary was brave Austin Dabney. of Georgia. His owner craveniDgly refused to shoulder a flint lock, but the negro offered to enlist and. after some discussion, the officers enrolled him. He was one of the heroic b?nd who faced the charge of the 71st Highland regiment at Blackstock's farm, and turned the crack troops of Europe in open field, with rifle and musket against the bayonet, and at Kettle Creek Dabney was severely wounded. After the war he was pensioned by the United States government, and received grants of land from Georgia. For gallant service in the field he #.it i#<? mil y WR3 ireea Dy an act 01 tne state legislature and bis value paid from the public funds. Grateful to the white family who nursed him while wound- j ed, he earned money and educated their eldest son, and wept for joy when the youth was admitted to the bar. Riding into Savannah to draw his pension be humbly fell to the rear of the white men he bore company. Governor James JackBon, himself the owner of many slaves, saw Dabney, rushed out, shook his companion in arms by the band, and bad him lodged in his "quarters/1 or row of housea where the servants lived.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a remarkable record. It has been in use for over thirty years, during which time many million bottles have been sold and used. It has loDg been the standard and main reliance in the treatment of croup in thousands of homes, yet during i this time no case has ever been reported to the manufacturers in which it failed to effect a cure. When given as soon as the child becomes hoarse or even as soon as the croupj cough appears, it will prevent the attack. It is pleasant to take, many children like it. It contains no opium or other harmful substance and may be given as confidently to a baby as to an adult. For sale by J. E. Kaufmann. I THE 3 SPIRITTINE REMEDIES.
