situated some little distance from each other
it is not so easy to convey assistance to
them. Dead and injured lie scattered about
everywhere. In some instances the peasants
themselves lend help, but fear that, as an
engineer officer informed me, one-half of the
resident population and almost all the visi-
tors have perished. The latter were partic-
ularly exposed, as they lived in stone-bnit
houses and had retired to their lodgings
when the earthquake occurred. Many were

Ealdosta Times: Our town was in
state Of feverish excitement last
Sunday morning. 1t was asserted
on the streets that Messrs. Nat
Smith and William Duggan, Of Val

mile beyond old TroupevilIe, had
had fatal encounter the night be-
fore at Troupeville with three
Stonaker brothers, of Brooks county,
and that two of the latter we're killed

had passed through Valdosta about
midnight Saturday night and re-
ported the above facts. Nat Smith
was shot in the side just above the
hip, but not dangerously, and VIM.

Stonaker was shot also through the

The Past Year.

The dying year was one of many dis
asters, bu: one of peace among the ma
tions. There was very little murder
by nations, but much loss OF life and
property in casualties that can perhaps
be traced to the negligence or criminal
ity of mankind.
Soon after he beginning of the year
there were great and danAging floods
in the lower valley of the Mississippi
river, and all through the year much
ruin was caused by water, down even
to theoclose of it, when unprecedented
foods occurred in the valley of the
Rhine and in Italy. TWAS also a year

One thing noticeable upon the
streets is the almost total absence of
any drunkenness, and the cause is
easily found in the recent action of
the city council which has raised the
