He Stumbles Over a Drunken Man
and Thinks 1t Case of Murder.
Old oceans roar did not drown the cries
of frightened male bather night before
last at Tybee when he stumbled and fell
headlong over the body OF a man lying on
the beach. His cries threw the crowd into
an uproar, and before 1t could be learned
what was the matter the bather ran to the
hotel and locked himself up in his room.
The affair created quite q sensation
among those who got glimpse
of the frightened man streaking
through the hotel and up the stars in ms
bathing suit. They waited upon the fright
ened man, and, after persistent efforts they
succeeded in getting him to poke mis- head
out over the transom and explain that there
was IA frightful case of murder on the
beach.
A crowd started out to look for
the murderer, when they stumbled
upon a man stretched out on the
beach dead-drunk. They did not
the hotel, and a committee waited upon the
frightened man locked in his room, and III
formed him that 1t was only a case of
drunk on the beach; whereupon the man
opened the door, and, inviting the crowd
in, uncorked some wine He said that as
he had got off so good joke on them, thew
were entitled to something for being duped
He appeared to be perfectly happy after he
found that it was "a drunken man that he
had embraced on the sand.

THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.
The Signal Bureaus Report Of the
Weather in Crop Time.

The Signal Bureaus Report OF the
Weather in Crop Time.
The signal bureau, in its weekly weather
report, says that last week in the cotton
region from Alabama westward to Texas
and Arkansas the weather conditions were
generally favorable. and the cotton crop
was much improved; although the cotton
worms have appeared in Louisiana and
Alabama, as yet they have caused no
damage to the crop. In the east portion Of
the cotton region, including North and
South Carolina and Virginia, excessive
rains proved injurious to all crops, especially
to cotton and tobacco. South Carolina re-
ports cotton shedding and prospects
gloomy.
The week was slightly warmer than
usual in New England and the Middle and
Atlantic states. The normal temperature
prevailed ia the South Atlantic and Gulf
states, while in the states of the Ohio. upper
Mississippi and Missouri valleys the week
was relatively cool, the average daily tenn
perature ranging from g to G. below the
normal.
The season from Jan. to Aug. has been
warm from the Mississippi river westward
TO the Pacific coast, the excess of tempera-
ture increasing with the latitude: and from
Dakota westward TO Oregon and Washing
ton Territory the season is from ten to
fifteen days in advance. In New England
and the Middle Atlantic states the season
has been slightly warmer than usual, while
generally throughout the Southern states
| and the Ohio valley the temperature for
the season has been slightly below the
normal.
The seasonal rainfall remains substantially
as previously reported, except that the ex-
| cess on the Atlantic coast has been aug.
| mented, and from New York southwark to
! North Carolina there has been from one
third to three-fourths more rain that usual
for this period, namely, from January to
August. The rainfall for the season CON
tinues in excess in Wisconsin, Northern
| Illinois, and from Nebraska southwark to
Texas, while in the East Gulf states and in
Arkansas, West Tennessee, Missouri. Hi
nois. and Indiana over so per cent of the
seasonal rainfall has occurred. From East
Tennessee northward to Michigan only 20
per cent of the seasonal rainfall is reported.
while in Northern Dakota and Northwest
Minnesota, and in Oregon and Washington
| territory, the rainfall for the season has
| been about one-half the usual amount

w. Y. Holland Recovering from His
Injuries in the Piedmont Wreck.
W. Y. Holland returned yesterday from
Burnside beach, where he has been wooing
the salt sea air of that quiet resort, to re-
store his shattered nervous system, which
still shows the effects of the shock occa-
stoned by the accident he received on the
Richmond and Danville road last fall MIR.
Holland is a wel-known southern CONNER
clal Traveller, who is widely known in Geor-
gla, South Carolina, Florida and Tennessee.
and hundreds of kilograms and letters
poured in on him when the press announced
tho news of his being injured by tue derail-
ment of the train upon which he was q
passenger.
For five weeks Mr.. Holland was uncon-
scious from injuries to his head and soine
but he has now SO far recovered as to be-
able to get about with the aid of a cane.
and yesterday throngs of Savannah Friends
called on hinl at the Pulaski house to con-
graduate aim upon his escape Mr.. Hol-
land has lost the hearing of one ear. and
VIII always require a cane to get
about. HIS two weeks stay at the SEA shore
has been beneficial to his health. He re-
turns to his home at Hartweil by the Cen
trail this morning. Mr.. Holland distln-
gulshed himself last summer at Tybee by
rescuing lady from the surf who had gone
beyond her depth and would have been
drowned had it not been for the presence of
mind and courage of her reScuer.
MIR. Hollands attorneys have brought
SUIT IN Atlanta against the railroad com
pany 1or so, OOO damages, and some of the
ladies say that they would like to be on the
jury 50 they could give him big verdict.
