Saturdays Manitoba train and placed in
St. Clair hospital. Drs. Adams and Atkin.
son say his condition is critical. He is not
allowed to talk. owing to the stab in the
windpipe. Pneumonia has set in. Under
Sheriff Healey found Wilson not far from
the scene OF his crime, having apparently
made no effort to escape.
The prisoner is now in Jail here. He is a
powerful young man, 80 years old, six feet
high and muscular, and could bave easily
worsted q better man than Eagan with his
fists. From the present outlook the at
tack on Ea9an was q cold blooded attempt
at murder. The hearing in Wilson's case
vas set for to-day, but will probably be
postponed until Eagan's fate is known.
After Wilson's capture he was taken in
Eagan's presence. who fully identified him
as the man who stabbed him.

K. Pdrdee. Of Philipsburg. bonded W at
are known as the Iron Mountain and Iron
Tower mines, situated on Flat Creek in the
western portion of this county, from w. E.
Hall and others. THIS morning a man by
the name Of e. A. Baldwin entered suit
against w. e. Hall ct al, for an interest
in said mines. Mr.. Baldwin AYERS in his
complaint on file hat he furnished Hall
with provisions and other n~ecessaries for
prospecting. with the understanding that
he was to receive q certain
interest in any locations made. He claims
that the above-named mines were located
while the agreement was in effect, out that
his (Baldwin's) name was left out Of the
notice. He accordingly brings a suit in
equity for an interest in the property. As
a great many prospectors nave recently
been grub-staked by business men of this
county under similar agreements as that
set up by Mr.. Baldwin, the suit will be
with interest. OCCASIONAL.

SOME OLD GEORGIA BONDS.
The Legislature Will Be Asked to Pa
Some of Them-TYo Men M3xad

The Legislature Will Be Asked to Paw
Some Of Them-Two Men Mixsd.
Hon c. c. Kibbee was at the capitol at
Atlanta Wednesday and had long inter
view with State Treasurer Hardemal.
Judge Kibbee represents E. L. Hayes. of
Rhode Island and is trying to obtain the
payment of certain Georgia bonds which
are held by his client.
The bonds are some Of those which were
known as the convention bonds. They were
issued in 1865 by Governor Charles
j. jenkins. All have now. bowever
been paid and funded with D tbo en- :,
ception of $4,000 The difficulties
began at the time that Henry Clews,
New York, banker, was the financial repre-
sentative OF the state of Georgia. M.
Clews was authorized to redeem the con
vention bonds, and he did redeem a LARGE
amount of them. When, however. his ac.
| counts were examined, it was found that he
had charged compound interest for every
cent he had paid ont for the state of
Georgia. This made a difference OF
Sl7l, 600, and the accounts were thrown ont
and payment refused.
Mr.. Clews then took the convention bonds
which he still had in his possession and re
sold them. The purchasers were j. B.
Hayes q Co. Of New York, and Mr. Clews'
daughter. When the bonds were presented
for cancellation the state threw them ont
and the general assembly of 1875 appointed
DR.. j. NJ. Bozsman to Investigate the mat
ter. In his report DR.. Bozeman reflected SC
severely on the outstanding bonds that
when E. L. Hayes of Rhode Island pre-
sented his for payment the state treasurer
refused
The records show that E. L. HAYES had
no connection whatever with J. B. HAYES,
and it must have been an unintenti0nai
mistake Of DR.. Bozeman's in confoundinq
two persons Of She same name. In 1875 an
order was issued requiring that all the cor
vention bonds should be registered before
Aug l. E. L. Hayes presented the bonds
on July % and the registration was
accepted and ali the interest coupons were
also paid, leaving no liability on the states
part save the original investment of IS. 900.
For several years now Judge Kibbee has
been endeavoring to recover this sum. but
as yet all his efforts have been fruitless
Treasurer Herdeman said Wednesday that
he would not pay the money for the reason
that his three predecessors had refused to
do so because of DR.. Bozeman's report
He advised Judge Kibbee to memorabilia
the legislature and ask that body to order
the payment. This viii be done immedi-
ately.

The Rdiltoay Service Gazette of Toledo.
o., thus speaks Of Capt. J. w. Craig, road
master and master of transportation of the
Charleston and Savannah railway, as presi-
dent of the Roadmasters' Association of
America and of the unwiss rule of the
association, which will perhaps prevent
his reelection to an office which
be has 80 successfully administered:
Though burdened with innumerable duties
and responsibilities as master of transportation
and roadway for the Charleston and Savannah
railway, Capt Craig for the last three years
has left no stone unturned that could advance
the interests of the association, and to his great
personal popularity no less than his high stand
ing as railway official, the Gazette is in a po-
sltion TO know that considerable is due for the
respect entertained for the association by rail-
way officials and the public. Much as we ad-
mlre Capt. Craig, we are far from saying that
the proud distinction achieved by the Roadmas-
ters Association has been wholly due to his
popular and energetic administration, for he
mad able assistants in the other officers,
ana degree of unassuming talent has been
developed in the membership that was a sur
prise even to some of those who were best ac-
quainted with this class of railway officials
put II is possibly not far out of the way to say
tnat had some man who was unfit for the place
been president for the last three years the use
IulnesS OF the association would have been
greatly married if not wholly destroyed. Hence
the Importance of finding the right man for
successor to Capt. Craig at the coming conven-
tlon. He had fully resolved to retire
~ washington last year, but was forced TO
