H. M. MILLER & SON,
Brunswick, Ga,
AFTER an anxious, fretting day, you need some
thing which shall fit your tired bodv as a well
worn slipper fits a tired foot. it must be
something more than food or drink. If you want
to taste Nervana and forget all your tired and
fatigue, take a cup of one of Chase & Sanborn’s
“Original-Package” teas. These are the leaves the
natives themselves drink with all tneir vigor im
prisoned. It’s a very differen drink from ordinary
tea. Try a half pound.

FIRE SUPPOSED TO HAVE ORIGINATED
FROM BOLT OF LIGHTNING-DAMAGE
DONE IS ESTIMATED BETWEEN TEN
AND FIFTEEN THOUSAND.
Fire was discovered in the third s ory
of tbe Oglethorpe hotel shortly atter
1 o’oicok yesterday afternoon, and it
looked for a long while as though tha
entire building would be destroyed.
The Are originated it Is thought from
a bolt of lightning which struck in tbe
oenter of the third story.
A telephone alarm was given tbe tire
department, but before their arrival a
large number of tha guests of the hotel
and citizens as well had rushed to the
scene of the blaze and were working
faithfully to extinguish it. Tbe fltmts
seemed to Le confined between tbe
oeiiings and it wae a difficult ma ter ;o
get at them, and for nearly three houra
oloude of blaok smoke leaped from tbe
top of tbe building.
Chief Green upon bis at rival saw
that the engine was needel, ana in a
short time he hat a strong stream on
the blszs and finally suco-eded iu ex
tingxiihiug it.
The damage to vbe hotel will probably
reach SIO,COO, a< all the furniture in
tbe middle of the house from the first
to tbe third story was damaged either
by tbe fire or by water.
At one time it looked serious, and it
was feared that tbe fire was gaining
headway and the entire building was in
danger. Guests all over the house be
gan movmg ibeir things by letting
them down to the ground by the aid of
ropes. The women guests bicsme great
ly excited, and the situation for a White
was Indeed grave.
Proprietor Porter was seen late yes
terday afternoon by a representative of
the Times Call, and when asked what
he estimated the loss at, be said It was
impossible to say wbat tbe damage
was, but he thought it would be be
tween slo,o< 0 ar and $15,000 He said he
had ample room in the hotel to aooom
modate all the guests, and will bigiu
tbe work of fixing up the burned por
tion at once.

by Mr. J. S. Wright, $5,000 through

Chief Green was seen by a reporter
last night, and said he did cot think
tbe lire was caused by lightning, as be
had made a thorough examination and
oould nee no sign of a place where it
bad struck. The chief also desires to
thank tbe many c tuns who aided in
extinguishing the blaze. He sail the
water power was ample and that the
people were doing'the company an in
justice io saying that the water piwer
was poor.

side machinest to continue the work.
New men have been breugbt here on
■peoial trains, and by other various
means, but the strikers have intimi
dated and prevented them from work
ing. Tbe most serious aepeot is the
probable loss by the city of tbe rail
road shops. The Southern railroad
Officials have aonounced that the strik
ing machinist will not be employed
again, and if this striking element
nontinuos, however, to keep tbe new
men out, tbe ebopt will probably be

past few days the trouble at the shops
was quite serious, and with the bolding
ing up of speoial train and subsequest
driving off of the non-union men from
the city, has praoticaliy brought the
fight to a crisis, and it is not known
how soon the Southern railroad may
anucunce the neoessiry of moving the
shops, Iq the meantime, however,Jthfe
business men here are trying to pre
