A DOUBLE MURDER.
Two Men Killed and a Lynching in Pros
peGt.


A dispatch from Atlanta, Ga, dated
December 25th, says: Details of double
murder yesterday at Covingtion, a small
town about sixty miles from Atlanta, on the
Georgia railroad, have just reached here.
The accounts state that William Smith and
james Banks met in barroom and quar-
relied about cards. A scutfle ensued, Smith
pressing 1t and Banks declining. Smith
with large navy six-shooter finally
shot Banks through the body. He stag
gered out and fell on the next doorstep and
expired. The murderer ran and was par-
sued, and when overtaken Alexander lIcnd-
ricks colored, with a rock in his hand, or
dered him to stop. The murderer turned on
him and shot him through the body also.
He fell and died in a few moments. just
then another pursurer fired at Smith putting
bali through his hat, whereupon he fled,
pursued by the Sheriff and the crowd.
When about one mile distant Smith was
seen TO hide himself behind pile of brush
by another faithful colored man. The
Sheriff was told of his position. Riding up
he demanded Smiths surrender or life, and
Smith surrendered, being taken by the
Sheriff alone.
When the officer with his prisoner arrived
in town the scene was indescribable. A yell
was raised, the crowd halloed and ran to
meet him, some crying out, "Where is hes''
"Kill him, !" "Let's hang him." There was
large crowd in town, and it was with diff
Guilty that he could pass the streets to Jail.
The excitement is still high, and strong
guard is on duty to protect the prisoner.

Ahout Check stan,ns.

To THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE Would
you be kind enough to answer Ine this ques-
tion through the columns of your paper,
whether it is not binding upon the maker
of a bank check TO put stamp on it,! Aud
oblige yours, ". NJ
Legally it is the duty of the maker of a
cLeck to affix the stamp, but custom disre-
CARDS the law to a certain extent. Many
people are only too glad to accept a check
in payment of bill and willingly furnish
the check themselves. There is a penalty
of $50 for presenting an unstamped check at
the bank for payment or deposit. t.-FD.
