Nnlored Man.

NEWMAN, GA, July 9S.-The death Of
John Gillian recalls the curious story Of
which he was the central figure during the
Ku.Klux era in South Carolina. In 1860,
Gillian, who was a man Of good family and
some property, took a prominent part in
the khan of which he was member. One
night two negroes were murdered in most
brutal manner by band Of Ku.Klux, and
the evidence OF Gilham's completely was
so strong that a warrant was issued for his
arrest, 10 avoid which he fled from home,
and found refuge with Mr.. 7. O. Gay, who
lives in this county. He has lived Tor four.

two large pistols buckled around him, and

swamps Gilham passed the greater part Of

swamps Gilham passed the greater part Of
his life. He was terror to all the negroes
that knew him, and who told fearful
stories. They had some way learned Of his
past life. Though he had lived fourteen
years in the county, no more than fifty
white people knew Of his existence. For
a long time Gilham had been subject to
cramps.
One day last week he was in the swamps,
when one Of these cramps attacked him,
rendering him entirely helpless. A negro
passing by in little while was requested
by the sick man TO inform Mr.. Gay'sfamily
Of his condition, but this he refused to do,
iuficting retribution for the crime perpe-
trated upon two Of bis race fourteen years
before. For four hours he lay in the
swamp, suffering untold pain, when he was
rescued by seining party, but too late TO
save him, and he died shortly afterwards.

YOUNG CATTLE.
Early Maturity the order Of The nar.


Away up in the north where the
science of feeding is understood and
the heaviest weights have been reach-
ed in raising and fattening beeyes fer
market, where eighteen hundred
pounds for n four-year old Is not con-
sidered heavy, the feeders have one
by one come to the conclusion that
the heavy beef steer has had its day
and must now give way to Younger
animals. Instead of four or iiye-year
old steers being considered the mark
etabie animals to realize the highest
profit, the long two and the short
three are to have chance and i'm
their day and generation be consider
ed the best to handle.
The significance of this change in
the opinion of we'll posted operators
In the north, will be more widely
understood shortly than now, because
the change is not so general yet, as II
VIII be in the near future. 1t is only
now that men are putting on the mar
ket their last heavy cattle and gener-
ally expressing themselves rs dissatis-
fled with the difference In weight and
slight advance in prices over younger
animals in equally good condition of
flesh. The wide gap between the ma
ured Longhorn or other breeds of inn
proved cattle, may not be changed by
this, yet in the change the Longhorn
and more especially the improved
Texan will be benefited, If only i'm
the decrease in weight OF cattle on the
market making an increased demand,
naturally following this change as
night follows day.
These seemingly Insignificant chan
ges must lead TO a demand for num-
bers, outside. of placing all fat cattle
more on the plane of equality, pound
for pound, although 1t may, and prob
ably will, widen the cash value be-
tween fat and half fat cattle.
The future of the Southwest, assured
as it has been by the increasing con
sumption, the enhanced price of feed
in the North, increasing now, not.
withstanyling the alleged abundance
the rushing on the market of cattl,
held awhile for higher prices, the
promises of better and quicker transit
for range stocks, and the favorable out
look for early beeves, all indicate salts
factory prices for range cattle not
| withstanding the conservative views
held by dealers.
The spring market and its possibly
high prices is not so much in DANCE,
of being flooded with half fat stock
from this state as it would be had tn,
beeves not been cut very close las
year, but it is in reality the greatest
element of weakness and very likely
will have n decided effect TO weaken
prices after the first rush, as it ha,
many times before. -- Teas Lire Stool
