Big River and Great Damage.

On Thursday of last week the Wa
teree had fallen to about eighteen feet,
when it suddenly took turn and
started to rise again at rapid rate 1t
rose to otwenty-eight feet four inches and
covered nearly all the low lands along
the river, doing immense damage to the
growing corn and good deal to cotton
For FIVE years the farmers along the
river have lost heavily, but each year
they have gone TO work again with a
desperate determination to regain their
losses, if renewed energy and hard
work would enable them to do so, but
each succeeding year has blasted their
hopes uHtil now utter ruin will be the
lot of many OF them. Pity. Pity, But
there is no hope for the present crops.
They, like those in former years, are
gone, and the work and money spent on
them is lost-Cunlien yo'vnal.

The Shock Felt at Kingville.
Laughed Himself to Death.

ATLANTA, Ga, July 9.-Jake Morris,
janitor of the City Hall, and who be-
longed to every secret order in the city,
laughed himself to death last night. He
attended the Masonic lodge of which he
was member When he left the lodge
room he was accompanied by Professor
Otto Sphar, who had lost his hat and
was compelled to go bareheaded until
they reached Morris's room. Professor
Sphar noticed that his friend laughed
immoderately, thing which seldom
happened. This morning Morris was
found dead by the servant. The theory
is that he laughed so immoderately as
to bring on palpitation of the heart, to
which he was subject. Morris invested
all his earnings ip life insurance and
leaves his two daughters about $24, 900.

with a mixture Of tar, feathers and
sand. Newell was then liberated and
was made to promise that he would
leave Murray County within torty-elght
hours. He returned home and word
was received from there tonight that
