Plcious negroes would attac'hem ON the

slde the fence, unfortIately carrying
the gun with him. AT le seed pile he

The American Girls the Boss.
From IA rlarsLnnd Lender.


Our American girls know better how to
wear their clothes than any other women
in the world. A walk in the afternoon
in the shopping parts Of New York will
show you more elegantly dressed women
than whole Sunday In the Champs Ely
sees or Hyde Park, and some OF our serv-
ant girls on SO a week cut a better figure
on Sundays than their English and Ger
man sisters, who come of families well to
do in the world.
The American girl seems TO be q sort OF
a cross between the English and the
French girl. She looks on the whole bet
ter than either, though she has not half the
advantages of her English sister in natu-
raj beauty Of compilation or robustness OF
health. The American girls complexion
is too often sallow. She talks, as a rule,
with a nasal twang, more or less pro-
nounced, and Ia not afraid to say what
she thinks. She dresses, however, III eX-
quisite taste. Her colors do not BIAS
pheme at one another, and she wears her
clothes 80 that she appears to have as
good form as her English sister. She
has Infinitely more style, and she carries
herself better. She is better looking by
fur than the French girl, who, by the way.
is dark oomplexioned, unhealthy looking,
and In many cases wears p2tr on NOUS
tacfes which would delight "a boy of nine
teen. The French girl dresses we'll, but
no better than the American. She is
business from the word go, and it is her
eex who form the cashiers of nearly every
shop, restaurant, and hotel in Paris. The
American girl needs only the business
training to equal her French sister in
this regard.
The girls or Germany are not, as rule,
well dressed. They look dowdy, and do
not scruple to drink several great mugs
OF beer at an evening out-of-dO0r concert.
They like cheese, and, like their much
fairer English sisters, are by no means
delicate eaters.
All European girls are carefully watch
cd. They arc not allowed to 20 to any
place alone; and travelling over Europe
without chapGrone, as some American
girls do, would almost lose them their
regulations. They are often taught that
little girls should be seen and not heard,
and they have not, in general, the conf
dence in themselves that an American
girl has. The English girl or the German
qIrl makes a good housekeeper and de-
voted wife If she ID well mated. The
French girl makes " business partner as
well; though her standing as true wife,
il the modern FreucR novel as an index,
is often uncertain, she makes a loving
mother, too, and in few countries will
YOU zee that love of children and parents
more pronounced and open than in
France. e
/ don't think any woman in the world,
however, can make better wife than the
American. She makes a good mother, an
excellent housewife, and IN most cases a
business partner equal 70 the French
woman. Take the American girl all
around, she 10 the best product OF her sex
that the world has yet produced. and az a
woman's show, composed Of exhibits OF
all nations, she would take the grand
prize and bs easily judged fret over all
competitors.

On Friday Of last week, In the United
States Court at Macon, Haynes Allen, of
Ielfalr county, plead guilty to the
charge OF carrying on the business of a
retail liquor dealer without payment of
special tax.
1t appeared that he is a merchant do
ing a small business at Lumber City,
winch Is In dry county; that he was pre-
vailed upon by commercial traveller rep
resenting drug house in Savannah to
handle their preparation OF Jamaica GIN
ger. Inc article soon grew into popular
favor. The people bought it and treated

stmulant, and barrel of old apple cider
behind the counter was frequently tapped

AN analysis OF the preparation showed

"A KemarkabI Case.


From, tho Perry (Go.) lime Journal
On Sunday night, Oct. }, while party
OF negroes, living near anderson. were
returning home from chrch a fight oc-
Cured between Lucy Kng, NJ attic Bar
row and Marietta JOrs. During the
nght Lucy King was slbbed in the left
breast with q knife, antdeath ensued a
few minutes after thewOund was in
f1icted.
Monday morning Maize Barrow and
Marietta Jones were committed by
Justice Pearce, and on Tesday the grand
Jury found true bill aginst them both,
based on the charge OF mrder. Wednes-
day morning Marietta Jones was ar
raigned In Houston Suprior Court on
the charge named IN he Indictment.
fhe trial developed the act that five or
six persons besides the ombatants wit
messed the fight, among tbm the husband
of the murdered woman. Yet no one OF
them saw the knife with mich the death
wound was inflicted, nor would IN any
way identify the murder. 1t is true
that the mother of the deceased mot
present during the fight )lwore that Ma
rietta, when confronted With the accusa-
tien, asserted that she id the cutting,
and would do it again.
The case occupied the entire day, and
the jury. after considering the case in
their room from to 10 O'clock p. M,
returned verdict of no guilty.
On Friday Matte Barrow was TO be
tried for the same otfelse, but Solicitor
Hardeman was too unve1l to enter into
the trial.
Thereupon Judge Simmons ordered the
prisoner to be released upon her own
recOgnizance. This amounts to an ac-
quittal, unless new eviCeIce is discOv-
cred.
1t is remarkable that murder could
be committed in crowd and no one
know who did it. Six Of eight parties, all
negroes, were in the rod, each one well
known to all the Others. all knew the
cause OF the fight, al saw the woman
after she was cut. ant before the wound
caused death. Yet he only facts posi-
lively proven were That the fight oc-
CURED, wound vas inflicted with a
knife, and that the wound caused death.
That some OF these negroes perjured
themselves is not doubted by any one who
heard the testimony.
This case very forcibly calls for the
suppression Of two very common evils
among the negrOes-fgbts among them
selves when going home from church, and
false swearing when called upon to testi'
fy against one Of their own race.
