ED. COLES
MEETS HIS DEATH AT TIL
HANDS OF A HUSBAND

Enraged by an Attempted Outrage
upon his wife.
The investigation Of the killing Of
Ed Coles by John Aday Tuesday
morning, took place before Judge
Barclay Tuesday evening. The testi-
mony elected the following facts:
Coles, aged about 1S, had been en-
ployed by Mr.. Aday to tend crop at
his home about three miles north
west of town staying on the premises
as protection, he being employed as
night watchman at the M. & G. depot
and consequently absent at night.
Everything worked smoothly until
Sunday night, it appears, near mid
night. Near this hour Mrs. Aday,
who, while attending to her sick child
had dropped asleep on the edge Of
the bed, was disturbed and awakened
by a man bending over her, in the act
of attempting violence on her, whom
she recognized as Ed Coles. The
children were asleep upon pallet
near tae bed. In her fright she
clasped his hand and screamed, where
upon he blew cut the light and hasti-
lY withdrew, she testifying that she
heard him enter his own room and lie
down, Other parties on the place
were aroused.
Jack Kelly, a colored witness saw
where the door had been forced and
the fastening broken off, and went
Immediately to Coles room charging
him with the deed. He was convinc-
ed by his behavior that he was guilty,
Coles standing around in the rain for
an hour or more and afterward leay-
ing.
The next morning, Monday, upon
returning home, Mr.. Aday was ia
formed by bis wife Of what had hap
pened. He Immediately begun
search for Coles, but was unsuccess-
ful until Tuesday morning, when he
was seen in lane between the Ewing
and Erskine farms. He Immediately
opened fire upon him, finally shoot
ing him to death.
Judge Barclay after hearing the
evidence and the case being submit
ted without argument said that he
thought he was clearly justified in
discharging the defendant, to go
hence free of the prosecution. Slight
applause greeted the decision.

that Gen. Warner was with them and made
ono OF his sensible and eloquent addresses.
PROHIBITION PROHIBITS.
Tnere was one good feature Of the days
entertainment, and that was, did not zee
or hear Of any one being drunk; something
unsual where 50 many meet.
Gen. Warner deserves the thanks Of all
prohibitionists, for he does not allow any
spirits sold within four miles of hiI works.
This accounts for all being sober. And be-
sides, Calhoun and Cherokee counties, Ala,
and Pope county Ga., have prohibition.
1t also extends over the most of Chburne
county.
just why the black man should rejoice
over the 4th, I can't see. 1t certainly

Perhaps I was too hasty in endorsing the
call for Convention. I have since learn
ed that this "call would not bear too much

ELECTRIC LIGHT.

A curious scene was witnessed the.
other day in Newark, United States,
where certain storekeeper had n
electric light hung over the door of
his shop. The wires conveying the
electricity to the lamp hung outside
the building, and were connected in
a roundabout fashion with some iron
posts, to which was attached a fence.
Unfortunately, the covering of the
wires was worn away, and the electric
fluid passed into the fence. A we'll
known citizen passing by happened
to lean against the fence, unaware
that it had become a battery, and in
a moment lie 60 uttered a wild whoop
and danced round the pavement"
while his hat rolled into the gutter.
These unusual vagories attracted the
attention Of the passers by. One. in
spite of explanations, declared it was
+" disgraceful to see an old man
drunk in the Streets" and another
ran off for q policeman. Meanwhile,
some of the crowd seized the fence
to test the truth of the story, which
they found only too true. The
policeman arrived amidst a scene of
confusion, and thought the affair was
fight. At this point number of
men whose character could not be
doubted interfered, and vouchcd for
the truth of the citizens statement.
The policeman gingerly touched the
fence with his club, and " that self
same moment the club went whirling
around at the end Of his electrified
arm," while the crowd scattered on
all sides to avoid contact with it.
Fortunately, an electrician who hap
pcned to he about explained the
mystery and the current was turned
off.

day bring upon it strike which will
not be SO easily overcome-a revolt
of the combined press of the Pacific

Now, here let me suggest that this
strike cannot take place any too
soon, because the press and the peo-
pie, of not only the Pacific coast, but
every where else, have submitted
too long already to its extravagaGt
charges for very poor quality of

the time arrives, will it not be found
carrying out a wrong principle p
if it's theory be sound.
