THE JURY GOT THE BEER.
The Way a Lot Of Thirsty JurYmen
Played the Sheriff.

Played the Sheriff.
Two or three days ago a group Of petit
jurors and talesmen WAS discussing a
case that was assigned for trial that day
IN the Superior Court. There was an i'm
preston that the evidence would be
tangled and that a verdict would not be
reached easily. The jurors were stand
ing IN the lobby half listening to what
was going on in court and fearing every
minute that they would be called.
From the case In question the cOnversa-
ton turned to some famous mistrIals. Sew

ten to fifteen hours in jury room.

THE HOME CLUB LEADS.
CLOSE RACE FOR THE SOUTH
ERN LEAGUE PENNANT.

ton Making - sharp Fight-Enect OF
Augusta and Chattanooga with
drawal-The Games thts Week.
The withdrawal Of Augusta and Chat
tanooga from the Southern League has
changed the standing OF several other
clubs, The league directors at their
meeting on Thursday agreed that upon
any club retiring all games be counted to
an even series, deferred games, however,
played up TO the date of withdrawal to
count in the championship summary as
belonging to a series played previously
Savannah loses three games which
it won from Chattanooga in the third
series by this arrangement. Nash
vile was in Augusta a whole week,
but was unable to play owing to bad
weather. The games would not have
counted, however, had they been played,
being in the third and an uneven series.
All the clubs completed the second
series with Augusta except Savannah
and Macon. Each Of these has two de-
ferred games. Nashville has two games
with Chattanooga and Memphis one.
savannah also had two games with Chat
tanooga. but they were played off here
last week and completed the even series.
Charleston played off two games with
Augusta on Monday and began the third
series with Chattanooga.
Savannah now leads in the league race
by 81 points. Atlanta stands second
Macon has pulled together and ties Nash
vile for third place. Memphis is fourth
and Charleston is at the bottom. The
clubs are closely punched. The race from
now on will be neck and neck. The
struggle in the Southern league is closer
than that in any other association. Sa-
vannah has played within three Of as
many games as any club in the
league and has lost fewer. 1t has un-
doubtedly the best team in every respect
and will make a hard fight for the pen
nant.
Atlanta, like any other club, has it's off
days, and when they do occur the team
goes to pieces like so many amateurs.
and the players pile up big errors by the
wholesale, but in most cases they play a
very steady game. Their battery and
base running abilities are the clubs
strong features.
Nashville seems to have lost her grip,
while Macon has got a fresh hold and is
gaining victories right along. The club
will hold good place at the end Of the
season. In fielding and batting it stands
as high as any club in the league.
Memphis has had bad weather and hard
luck and has dropped to fourth place.
Charleston is still guarding the rear.
but is playing splendid ball and
will push Memphis hard during this
weeks games. The team is made up of
good material, is well managed, and if it
does not win games it is no fault Of the
management. There is no team in the
league SO far behind that it may not reach
first place yet.
The following table shows the number
OF games lost and won, the percentage of
games won and the rank of each club in
me ieague UP to date:

HEALTH OF THE CITY.
DEATHS DURING THE FIRST SIN
MONTHS OF THE YEAR.

Large Mortality Among the Co'ored
Population-Ths Measles Epidemic
Losing it's Grip-Sanitary Condition of
the City and its Surroundings-The
Health Officers semi Annual Report.
There were thirty-six deaths in the city
last week, but only six were whites. For
midsummer the death rate among the
whites was quite low. Dr.. Mcfarland
the Health officer, in speaking OF the
subject yesterday, said that 1t is evident
that the city is in good sanitary c0hdl'
ton. The large death rate among the
colored population still keeps up. From
the mOrtuary report tor the week 1t Is
seen that the causes Of death among the
blacks numbered more than dozen.
Twenty of the cOlOred were under
10 years of age. The measles
epidemic is losing its fatal grip
on the children. 1t is rather singular
fact that an epidemic OF measles prevailed
all over this country and Europe during
June. The worst Of it seems to have
passed, though.
Last week consumption had more vie
Tins than any other form OF disease, but
all of e deaths from that cause (hve)
were 1Ong the blacks. Hat the whites
who dIed were under 20 years and the
otner three were over 40. There was one
death (cOOred) between 50 and 80.
In toe first SIX months OF the year there
were 707 deaths IN the city. Daring the
same period ia 1885 there were only 446
deaths. The increase for the first
half Of the present year being
26l. OF this Increase 2o2 were
cOiOred. Or. Mcfarland, in his report
for the last quarter, says that 1.-The no.
ticeable Increased death rate, especially
that Of the negro population, is due 10 the
fact that measles has prevailed in epi-
demic form for the past two months"
The annual ratio per 1000 Of population
tor the irst quarter OF 1886 was: whites
1913, blacks 45 06, and for the second quar-
ter. whites 1872, blacks 65.7-making the
ratio per GOO Tor the six months, whites
2l9, blacks SO. For the first haif of 1889
the ratio was, whites ll.5 and blacks 30.5.
The number OF deaths OF children under
wears OF age was POO about One-thIrd of
the total number of deaths dUrinS the
entire six months OF this year. There
were but deaths OF persons between 30
and 100 years OF age and only ! over 100
Years.
The following table will show the num-
Der OF deaths in each month, compared
with the number during the correspond
M months in 1880:
