A Georgia Judge Whips Two Armed Rob-
 berS. Atlanta iGaN Special, Aug. Sl

lAtlanta (Ga.) Special, Aug. S.l
 Yesterday Judge H. D. Twiggs, represen- tative from Richmond county, speaker pro. tenn. of the house, and very prominent politician, while spending the day with his family at Mount Airy, 8 summer resort on the Richmond and Danville road, went alone to the cascade, wild and lonely spot one mile distant from the hotel. He had re- moved his coat and was seated upon a huge rock enjoying the picturesque scenery, when he was set upon by two brawny ruf6ans, who, emerging from the thick woods behind, had noiselessly approached. One of the men leaped upon the rock and seized Judge Twiggs about the waist. The judge at once grap- pied with him, and off they rolled, and oown the ravine fifty feet into the shallow stream below the cascade. Here, after brief strug- gle, Judge Twiggs, who is powerful man physically, extricated himself from the grip of his antagonist, and regained the bank just as the other ruffian reached the waters edge. The judge with one blow of his fist knocked him down, and as his companion came from the water to his aid the judge again felled him to the ground. The men then whipped out their knives and made at the judge, cut ting his clothing but not his flesh He seized some heavy stones and hurling them at his foes drove them back so fercely that they at last sought..safety in flight, the judge pursu- ing them nearly a mile and then giving up the chase The object of the men was robbery. The sheriff is on their track, and Judge Twiggs, with the exception of swollen fin ger and bruised limbs, is in town receiving the congratulations of friends

HECK ER'S
PERFECT BAKING POWDER.
A FAIR TEST.

To the Editor of the Journal & Courier:
 Sir:-The contract for supplying the United States government with seventy-five thousand (75, 5,OOO) lbs. of Baking Powder during the en- suing year has been awarded to Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder, it having been tested by Dr. Ed ward G. Love, analytical chemist for the government, and recom- mended by him for it's excellence and because it contained higher percentage of gas (which means it will make lighter bread and bis cuit) than either the "Royal'' or the other cream tartar baking powders winch he examined. The samples analysed by pr. Love were furnished by the government com- manufacturers label or name, and designated with number known only to the commissioners.
 It will thus be seen that when Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder is submitted to an impartial test it's superiority is acknowledged, and the popular verdict so emphat- ically expressed in it's favor is fully sustained

He was arrested by the St. Louis po- lice. and full kit of counterfeiters' and for gers tools were found in his luggage. Evl- dence was also found to show that he ob- tained railroad passes all over the country as an officer of the various railroad companies, whose letter heads he counterfeited This practice he has since continued. He has lived 'son the wing" but rarely had to pur. chase railroad tickets. It was also found that he was just on the point of issuing bo- i gus checks on the Planters bank, of Owens boro, Ky.
