STRANGE SUPERSTITION.

SAVANNAH, Feb. 2j.-Ever since
the present year set in there has
been great trepidation among the
superstitlous, both colored and
white, IN the region between the
junction Of the Ocmulgee and
Ohoopie Rivers. in Tatnal county.
The cause of this is singular indeed.
About five miles back from the
bank of the OhoOpie, there is a
field which is an almost arid waste
of sand. In the centre Of this field
stand tour trees. One of them
about four years ago was struck by
lightning, and is now leadess
stump. The other trees are what
might be called twins, being double
trees, which have grown around
each other. 1t was while returning
from a meeting early one
morning IN the fall of last year that
some negroes stopped near this
field, and to their eyes the trees,
as seen against the morning sky,
read "1SSS.p The stump made a
perfect figure l, while the other
three twisted around each other
made good 6gure eights. The dis
covery struck terror into the minds
of these simple folk, and returning
to their brethren they narrated
what they had seen. a deep awe
seized upon the whole party, and
they felt that something dreadful
portended from the figures. They
meant that in the year 1888 some
thing mysterious would happen
the end Of the world, pestilence,
or war. SO settled has become
this feeling that any unusual dis
turbance of the clements sets the
population to praying in a most
fervent manner. The news OF
earthquakes ard other dire events
is listened to with avidity. In the
midst of all this excitment the
trees stand together as sentinels in
the middle of the deserted field
while the road which passes near
by is seldom used, for the people
dread to pass by the Omens OF evil
which show up so grimly.

but it was evident his life was
ebbing fast, and he died at
1880 a. m.
Barbour now lies at his fathers
house in very precarious con-
dition.
Young Williams was just 81
years old, young man Of
quiet, unobtrusive, and popular
manners. The coroner's jury up to
this hour have not made up their
verdict. Barb our is but IS years
of age.
SENATOR ELECT BARBOUR HEARS
THE NEWS.
A representative of the RepuJh.
can called at the residence Of
Senator elect John s. Barbour,
corner Of Second and b streets
northeast, at about 9 O'Clock last
evening, and was cordially received
by that gentleman. On stating his
errand Mr.. Barbour replied that he
had received a telegram from a
friend at Culpeper that evening
stating that his (BarbOur's) nephew
and Williams had had a difficulty,
and that both were wounded
When the reporter told him of the
death of Williams he seemed great
" surprised and saddened at the
news. He expressed his surprise
that some of the older residents OF
the village had not prevented a
meeting between the two young
men, as 1t was well known that bad
feeling existed between them and
had for some time. "My nephew"
SAID he, "was only about Is years
of age, and my impression is that
young Williams was older. The
Williams family is one of the oldest
and best in the state, and | deeply
regret this most unfortunate affair.""
BARBOUR MAY RECOvER-FUNRR-
AL OF THE MURDERED MAN.
CULPEPER, March edwin
Barbour, editor of the Adrdnce,
who was shot here yesterday morn
ing by Ellis B. Williams, is still
lying in a critical condition, but his
physicians have hopes Of his
recovery, if lockjaw does not set IN.
The funeral of Williams took
place this afternoon from the Pres
byterian church and was the larg-
est seen IN this place for years.
The coronor's jury rendered their
verdict this morning in the case as
follows: "That Ellis B. Williams
came to his death from pistol
shot wound fred from a pistol in
the hands of Edwin Barbour
1t is proper to correct an error
in the special of last night. 1t
was stated by Williams's friend
before the coroners jury that he
knew of no notes having been
written by Williams and sent to
Barbour asking bin to come out of
his Office and meet him, and Bar
bour himself says most emphatlcal
" he never heard or received any
such communication, but passed
Williams on the street in the morn
ing, when neither spoke.

Last Thursday evening the young
ladies of the neighborhOod gave a
leap.year party at the residence Of
Mr.. Means. The girls assembled
some time before the gentlemen
were expected, and were having a
merry time when two of their num-
Der, the Misses Storer-viyacious,
fun.loving girls-slipped away, and
covering their faces with a dough
mask and their forms with sheets,
suddenly burst in on the group Of
laughing girls.
With a scream most of them fed
in terror, but four of them fell in a
faint on the floor. Two OF the
young ladies were speedily restored
to consciousness, but the other two,
Dora Eakins aud Lizzie Chaney,
could not be reused, and for two
days they remained in a stupor,
only to waken hopeless maniacs,
who scream and yell in the most
agonizing manner. Their condi-
ton is such that physicians say
they can live only a short time.
The Misses Storer, whose thought
less prank caused the awful affair,
are themselves Frustrated with
grief. One is IN the delirium OF

garded as doubtful. The whole
neighborhood is in mourning over

The Evil Of Chewing Cloves,

When | smell cloves on a mans
breath my first thought is, "That
man is a FOOL He thinks he is
concealing the smell of whlskey or
some other vile smell and he is
ouIy advertising it. There is an
other reason, also, why he is a fool.
The oil OF cloves, which ls express
ed from them by chewing them is
an active solvent of the enamel of
the teeth. Any one who chews
cloves will soon notice that it makes
the teeth tender. That means that
their enamel is dlsapp earring, and
the next is a mOuthful of decayed
