NEVER FAILS. .
It Will Curt If Fairly Teste 1.
It fires me much pleasure to be able to
Jtaat I hare derived an effectual euro of
croftla from the use of Mr. Joe Person's
J1 for that disease. I had suffered
a scrofula for more than three years,
tf despaired of ever getting well. I
treated during that time by three very
keatphjjiciana.wlthout any good result.
Jtea went to the National Surgical Insti
JatlUanta, Ga., and waa treated there
a two months, with no better re
13 bit family physicians met with,
ttfcotifcig from the Institute, I was
n2ded to try Mrs. Person's remedy, and
J"4 not used it more than a week before I
credits curative and healing proper
- J sores soon began to hea', and the
201 my skin changed as fast as the sores
JJ I had not thought of eer getting
rj but my hopes Increased, my low
Wttednefc.flea before th remedy, and I
ow enjoying splendid health and am in
spirits- The remedy Is mild as a pur
2. and a strong tonic : it will heal the
bborn sore in three weeks if taken
Iifny. It is my opinion that . it should
some time after the sore is 1 healed,
J jaote the cause of Its effieets. It ahiuid
regularly by all means, for I have
iSr0 neglected it, from the pressure of
ta ln U c5ea foxvad that the
wTady made would commence to rc
JJJJ46. and for this alone it should be
JJT Jtgularly until an effectual cure is
iarSiir4 Nothing should prevent regu
J2.a the use of the remedy and tUhould
tJ0 the proper time. I would re
jd to all who are suffering from
tfZ1 to try it. It will surely cure you
rPTsltafalrte8t. I speak from expe
rJTzif0,4 Dt from hearsay. I am a grate-
aSi X of cure from the 050 of 16 nd

from the Reporter: 1
We understand that CoL Henry M.
Drane. who was Superintendent of the
construction of the Waycross A Jackson
ville Short Line, aad since its completion
has been citing his attention to other
interests of the company, has received
the appointment of Special Assistant
to the General Manager of the Savan

is. indeed, a very responsible position,
one. in our opinion, upon woun ium
mantle of responsibility coma not nave
fallen more deservedly, for be is a bora
railroad man.
In addition. CoL Drane has also in

CoL H. 3. Haines. General Manager
of the S. F. k W. railway, has shown his
usual aptness and ability in this appoint
meat, for his labors had become so great,
so responsible and so arduous, that as
sistance had become an absolute neeessi-
;v to the carrying on of the stupendous
interest now upon his shoulders, and
wisely did he select CoL Drane, who has
had some thirty years experience in rail
roading, daring which time he has filled
with ability Tery many impoitant posi

less be found very useful to the Interest

The race is said to have been one of the
prettiest ever made ovc r the coarse, the
yachts keeping pretty close together do
ing the entire time.
The regular August regatta vf the
Carolina Yacht Club was sailed on yes
terday. The wind was heavy from the
Northeast and the. boats found consider
able difficulty in obtaining crews and
ballast and for that reason the 'Restless
did not go in the raco. There being no
member ol the Club in the Flirt who
could sail her, Capt. McKoy having been
I taken with a chili on going over tt the
course, she did not enter the race for the
prize, but Mr. Flowers, of the crew,
begged that his boat be timod and that
he would tail the count after the race
had been started.
The yachts started in the following
order: ,
Glide 2h . . 15m . . 00s

Alarm of Fire.
The generalfire alarm was sounded in the
Ihird fire district to-day about 1 o'clock,
which called the fire department out, but
it was soon discovered there" was no need
for the engines, the flames having liecn
eztingushed through the friendly aid of
a few neighbors. The scene of the
threatened conflagration was on Fifih,
betweea Priucess aad Chestnut streets,
in a house occupied by colored people
upon the premises of Mrs. J. L. Keen.
The fire took place on the roof of the
aforesaid building, 'and was caused by a
spark from the chimney. The blaze was
quite large at one time, but for the
prompt succor offered by Mr. Charles
Klein and a few other persons, there
might have been a serious conflagration.
The damage, however, was slight
