Years Imprisonment.
ATLANTA. GA, April I9.-Judge Richard
Clarke to-day sentenced Glenn McCord, the
young man convicted yesterday of perjury
in the Eddleman murder trial, to the full
extent Of the law-ten years at hard labor
in the penitentisry. In pronouncing SEN
tence Judge Clarke, who presided in the
Eddleman trial, referred in severe terms to
the methods resorted TO BY the defense in
sending away witnesses for the state, pack
ing the jury and hiring witnesses TO swear
falsely. He said also that military ex-
emption contributed to the facility with
which the conspiracy to defeat justice was
carried TO success. He thought the
law Of military exemptions should be
modifiad 50 as not to apply
in the trial Of felony cases. McCord's
mother and wife, who were in court, cried
and sobbed when sentence was passed. Nc
Cords counsel have m )ved for a new trial
but it is believed that the verdict will stand.

Even the Republicans Tired of the
Scramble for Office.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-Civil service
reform has mora friends among the repub-
lican senators and representatives than it
had month ago. Most of them are rich
and tired of the scramble fer offices into
which they have almost all been forced by
the pressure of their constituents, and are
now clamorous for an extension of the civil
service rules, so as TO take in every govern
ment Office. There are exceptions Of course,
chiefly among the southern men,
who do not seem to have the same distaste
for waiting in ante-rOoms or the same ap-
probation Of the dangers of patronage as
their northern colleagues. But the igreat
ma jority of the northern senator's and repre-
sentatives seem to agree with Representa-

trusts that the President will extend the
civil service rules over every
branch of the government servics

masters chosen by an informal election in

A SPIRITS POT OF SILVER
DOUoRERTY COUNTY NEGROES
DIG FOR A FORTUNE

A Negroes Claims That the Burial
Place OF the Money Was Revealed
to Der After a Prayer-Ths Buried
Treasure Not Yet in Hand at Last
Accounts.
ALBANY, Ga, April ia strange ex-
perience and story of two negroes of this
county was related by them here to-day.
Alfred Lawson and his wife, Lizzie, live
on the Reich & Geigsr plantation, FIVE
miles southwest of this city. Both of them
are religious, very religious, in the average
negro's way. About Christmas Lizzie's
health was very bad, and the Lawson
household was reduced to a very low finan-
cial point
10 her story to-day Lizzie said that the
only one she could appeal TO for help was
the Lord, and she prayed long and
earnestly.
WHAT THE SPIRIT TOLD HER
After time her prayers were answered,
and the spirit appeared to her and told her
she should be rewarded and gave Der the plan
and key to a vast fortune, which she would
surely secure if she would only carry out
the directions given her. The spirit told
her that if she found a bran new silver
spoon in her house 1t would be sign for
her to 60 to certain spot in
tie side of hill aud try the
soil with a spade until she struck a strea K
Of black, soft earth about feet square in
the red clay hill Lizzie positively affirrDs
that she found the spoon, and then followed
the secret power OF tie holy spirit which
led her to the bill. She searched for the
spot of black earth, which was east =
found.
SEARCHING FOR THE FORTUNE.
She went to work with her spade to un-
earth the fortune buried there, which, she
credited the spirit with saying, was large
iron pot containing four water buckets full
of silver coin. She and her no less enthusi-
astic husband dug down Is feet
At this point their actions attracted
some attention, and when the story
was told by the very sincere couple, all the
negroes on the plantation were thrown into
fever of excitement and superstition.
Lizzie and Alfred are suo-tenants of
William Williams, another negro He be-
came so worried over the matter that he
notified the inspired couple that they would
have 20 desisC and leave the place.
THE OWNER CONSENTS.
This was more than the fortune hunters
could stand, so they came TO town in hot
haste this morning, called upon Mr.. Geiger.
and gave the story in full detail, and
prayed for his permission TO continus their
digging until the fortune was secured
They stated that rusty scales ON iron had
been reached, and that they knew the pot
was only few feet deeper. Mr.. Geiger gave
his consent, and they secured the services
OF jeffrey Hill, a negro we'll digger, and
hastily returned home TO continue their
search, with what results is not very well
understood. II said that Alfred is an ig-
norsnt negro, not being able to read line,
but can quote the Bible, verse after verse,
and chapter after chapter.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, April l9-The New
York Herdlds correspondent here received
a telegram this evening asking if rumor
that prevailed in Washington that yellow
fever had again broken out here was true.
The correspondent sent full and unouali-
fed DENIAL of the Infamous falsehood, forth
fed by the following cards:
The rumor that yellow fever has resppeared
in Jacksonville is absolutely and positively
false. There has not been case Of sickness

be cast. The city is unusually healthy,
being entirely free from contagious diseases Of
any kind NEAL MITCHELL, NJ. D.,

Cockerell resigned some time ago Second
Lieut.. Stonsell was elected captain.

drill the boys complain that he did not at
tend the drills until the last moment, so
that his erroneous commands and other
mistakes lost them the day. After the drill
they criticised him severely, ard finally ten
members asked him TO resign. This the
captain refused to do, and retaliated
by placing all the members,
some thirty in number, under arrest. He
then notified the adjutant general OF his
action, and that official is expected here
soon.

A prominent lumber dealer to-day. in an
interview, takes the ground that Jackson
