"Whereas the public is DESTROYS to

First that the shops are closed because
the Divine laws says, Six days shalt
thou labor. aad on the seventh rest ;
Second, that the Church, the common

to do so 4"

A FULFILLING CASE

Justice linn could not do otherwise
than put Glass under bond, as II was a
capital oftense, putting 1t at only-S5511,
Il is thought that he will be able TO give
this. Chichester was let go, as there was
nothing TO connect him with the alleged
crime. 1t Is certainly singu.
lar case, The testimony OF
Madison makes out an apparent alIbi
for the defendant, while according to Rus.
SELLS story the crime could not have been
committed on that night as the children
were at his house. 1t is matter Of fact
that the children did leave tneir brother
in-law's house on Monday morning,
the 26th Of last July. Either
their story about the camp on Fossil
creek ana whas occurred there is a fear
tul falsehood, or else Messrs. Madison
and Russell have sworn to some very un.
truthful statements. II was limited BY
the county attorney that Mr.. Russell was
mistaken as TO the identity of the
children, but he most emphatcally
reiterated mis- positive conviction that
they were the same, and he went into a
minute explanation OF how he remem.
bered the date of their arrival at his
house, that left no room to doubt the nc,
curacy of his statement.
Yet when II is remembered that there
could hardly be imagined any motive
for Leah Trammell and her young
brother to invent such story, the whole
case becomes more and more wrapped IL
mystery.
The Justice and the attorneys on botl
sides were frank to admit that II stumpeC

a temperature of fifty degrees may be
considered as sufficiently cold for bath

The Largest schooner.

What will be the largest schooner in the
worlds commerce when completed Is benz;
constructed at Bath, Me-, for the Philasel-
phia coal trade. She will be Il five-masted
vessel, and have carrying capacity 81
!, 800 tons of coal. The craft will be 26o
feet in length over al forty-seven teet beam
and twenty-five feet depth OF hold. Each OF
the five masts will he 100 feet above the
deck, with sufficient gear TO spread Z 1900
yards of canvas. Capt Baker, of the four
masted schooner Augustus Hunt, now at
this port, loading for Boston, will command
the new craft. Four-masted vessels, were,
until recently, considered a curiosity. The
introduction of a iive-masted coaster, with
sufficient space to carry as much as five or
binary vessels, and coupled with the out
side barge towing system, has caused the
owners Of small craft to wonder what will
be the next experiment OF the coal trans
porters.-Philadelp Record.

An Athletic Beauty.
from the st. Stephens Gazette.


From the st. Stephens Gazette.
Mrs. Langtry owes much other ply
steal charms to her love of physical
exercise, The public have been told
by the ubiquitous photographers o. her
exploits of late as trainer of horses,
but it is not generally known, believe
that the Lily is one OF the best lady
pedestrians of the day. In England
it was thought that Mrs. Lang
try's chief object while touring through
America apart from her professional
duties, was posing to receive
the homage of her numerous admirers
How far this was from the truth may
be gathered from a simple narration
OF fact concerning her walking expe-
riences in Dayton, o., at which place
l happened to be staying when the
much.heralded beauty arrived there.
She reached the city on Sunday morn.
ing in her special palace car, and in
stead of remaining in strict privacy,
as celebrated actresses are wont to
do when not performing, she took her
manager out for n walk. They visited
all the points OF interest in the city,
until, as the manager declared, he was
completely worn out, while she was
as fresh as at the start. After stroll.
ing about ten miles in this way he
succumbed, while the famous beauty
laughingly set out alone on al
excursion into the country. She
first made her way TO the
Soldiers Home, that is distance
OF four miles, up hill and down, walk.
ed about the grounds there and re-
turned. subsequently she proceeded
out into the country on a billy road
without guide or direction, and finally
reached the village of Little York
nine miles distant, on a rough, rurai
by-road. Then she walked back &c
the city, arriving there in time to par
take OF hearty supper. The next
morning she was up early and, after
rehearsal, she made tour of the city,
walking a considerable distance. In
the evening she appeared in "Pygma
lion and Galatea," and made q most
favorable impression. The total dis.
lance covered by the accomplished
lady during one days pedestrianisn
was over thirty-siX miles, and mostly
over country roads. Few OF her rival
beauties OF the English fashionable
world could perform II pedestrian feat

BOycOtting Girl.

A new phase of the boycott ha,
made its appearance in the little town
of Coon Rapids, Ia, where resides q
winsome little maiden of 10 summers,
whose charms are only equalled by
the fckleness of her disposition.
Among the small boys of the village
she had been the acknowledged belle,
and feeling herself secure of all their
hearts, she has not hesit lated to play
most cruelty upon their young atfec'
tons, torturing them with alternate
smiles and frowns, and dropping her
latest lover the moment she espied
another whom she fancied. This sort
of thing the youthful SWANS endured
until their patience finally gave out,
and so the other day they held
meeting and passed the following
resolution: Whereas, for nearly
two years, we, whose names appear
below, have been slited, dis
appointed, misgusted and ill-treated
by heartless croquette, without
cause or provocation; therefore. be it
resolved, that we hereby, each and
every one OF us, severally agree togive
her the grand bounce-that is to say,
have nothing to do with her, not to
look at her or smile on her, or 60 With
her to any party or place, or treat
her to ice cream or lemonade, and to
do everything in our power to make
her feal bad and miserable for the
period OF one year" Unfortunately,
there was one young man OF ~ ma
ture summers who was so astute as to
refuse to join the movement. He has
been basking ever since in the tickle
maiden's smiles without rival, and
and it is feared that it will be neces
sary to abandon the boycott i'll order
TO drive him from thp field

Georgia Oeosraphers!

asked where that city was. The four gen.
tleInen reflected for a moment. One Of

it was the capital OF Chill; the third au-

fourth said it was somewhere in Central
