tradition of fugitive criminals. Gov. Tay-

border counties. Gov. Gordon. on May IS,
prepared and forwarded to Gov. Taylor his
construction of the extradition law SO far
as it relates to misdemeanors, together
with the United States supreme court de
clsions. showing clearly aud absolutely the
fallacy of the position of Gov Taylor. Gov.
Taylor has made no reply and last week

Tor TO give the matter his attention. The
correspondence will be published if no reply
is received this week.

A CUCUMBER TALE.
The Snake Liar Outdone by One from

The Snake Liar Outdone by One from
Kentucky-He Deserves a Medal.
Hanging in barn in Old Pineville, three
miles from here, says a Pineyille lKy.I
special, is the most marvellous freak Of
nature ever heard of or seen. Its exist
ence, however. is youched for by Jane
P. Whalien and Joseph Lsahy Of Louis
vile.
1t is well known that when the cucum-
bers are first cut from the vine there is a
piece OF the stem which exudes or bleeds.
A prominent citizen of Old Pineville, cut
his hand, and this juice got into this cut
and his hand commenced to inhame. and
an eruption similar TO erysipelas made its
appearance and extended up his arm, and
finally spread all over his body. Strange
to say, there was no pain attending these
eruptions OF erysipelas, and he continued to
gather and pack the cucumbers and prepare
them for picking.
To the great surprise of everybody these
little pimples assumed the appearance and
form of small cucumbers, and continued TO
grow. Although Gibson kept well and
hearty, he was Jmpslled to stop work and
take to his bed. The doctors and quacks
from around here visited him. One pre-
scribed one thing and one another. One
wished TO bleed him; one wanted TO cut the
cucunDeFS OH a lOtnef Salu not TO let MN
have any water and they would dry up; an
other said stick a hole in each cucumber
and they would die and a new skin form !;
another wished TO wrap him up in a mann
moth poultice of barnyard manure and
draw them all to one head; another said
they ought to be scattered. All the doctors
had a different remedy, but ali disagreed,
so there was some hope that the patient
would get well But the nall cucumbers
grew into big ones, and his whole body was
covered with them from head TO foot, and
they commenced to ripen and turn yellow
and hang down, and the man looked like
huge bunch of bananas.
When they got ripe they began to shrivel
up and dry, and so did the man. His sap
was all gone and he died. The doctors pro-
cured the consent of bis widow TO permit
an autopsy to be made for the benefit of
science, and they cut him open, and to their
amazement found no blood, no muscles, no
sineAs, no arteries, but found only one
solid mass of cucumber seeds 1t was so re-
markable it would be useless to have his re-
mains inferred, and foolish to have them
cremated, and the widow concluded to keep
t1em in the house. She had the corpse
hung up by the hair in the barn, where it
now swings, an Inanimate evidence of what
nature can do when it takes notion.

coLLEaE BOAT Race.
Tho Columbia Crew Faints After
Crossing the Line

-
NEW LONDON, CONN, June 2.-In the
intercollegiate boat race tonight. Cornell
won. with Columbia second and Pennsyl-
vania third
The feature of the days races were the
exciting contest between Cornell and Col
umbia and the sensational collapse OF the
Columbia crew the instant they crossed the
finish line. When they stopped rowing
six Of them, Bradley No. l, Meikleham NO.
9, Robertson No. 8, O'Gorman No. 4, Knapp
No. 6 and Foote No. fell over in dead
faint, completely exhausted. Five OF the
six broken down men recovered conscious
ness within few minutes, but the sixth
man, Meikleham, was unconscious Tor
fully thirty minutes. As soon as the OH
cials noticed Meikleham's critical condition
they steamed to the tug Wellington, and
Dr. Appleton of Boston was summoned TO
attend him The six men mentioned above
were then lifted out of their shell ana
placed on board the Carrie Goodwin.
TWO OTHERS PAINT.
While these transfers were being made
two other men in the Columbia boat. futile
No 5, and Pelton the stroke, also tainted
and had to be assisted out Of their boat.
When tue Columbia launch arrived at their
quarters the entire Columbia crew were
lifted out aud carried to their rooms and
put to bed. The men were in pretty bad
shape. They had been rowed TO stand
still and had completely broken
down. Tuttle, No. 5, was quite excited
and at times slightly delirious Meikleham
and several others were slightly hysterical,
aud showed plainly the effects of the severe
strain under which they had been, and Of
the high tension of their nervous system
when they found themselves defeated.
Jasper Goodwin the fam JUS Columbia oars
man, admitted that the men were badly
used up, and were still under the weather,
but that nothing serious allied them.
ALARMIsT RUMoRs.
From other sources it was learned that
shortly after the race a boat was sent 10
Gales Ferry and a physician summoned.
This doctor is now with the men 90 p. m.)
and il is understood that he will remain at
the Columbia quarters all night as
a precautionary measure. Many alarm
ing rumors are current about
the condition of the Columbus,
but the Columbia men assert that they will
be all right in the morning, that they pulled
an unusually hard race, were out-rowed
and exhausted, and gave up, broken-hearted
over their defeat. The Cornell men, who
pulled a wonderfully pluckv race, are
around tonight feeling as bright and sound
as dollar.

MELON GROWERS FLEECED.
Two Alleged Buyers in Bad Reput,
at Quitman.

QUITMAN, GA, June 27.-William We'll
age, representing the commission house of
A NJ Eller of Louisville, KY, is under
arrest here, charged with cheating and
swindling. On Wednesday of last week he
bought a carload of melons from L. SILVER
Of this county and gave in payment for
them Sight draft on Eller for S125. The
draft was sent on for collection by the bank
Of Quitman. On Monday the bank here
received a telegram from its Louisville bank
stating at the draft had been refused by
Eller. Shiver then had w eiiage arrested.
John P. Brooks of Quit;nan went on
his bond, and Monday night he
left town, but was arrested at Waycross by
j. H. Steavens, Savannah, Florida and
Western railway detective, and was
brought back Tuesday by Sheriff Hender-
son, Of Waycross.
HIS EXPLANATION.
Weilage's statement is that he ran away
because he had fears for his personal safety.
He says that he heard threats against him.
He has, up to to-day been expecting that
Ell or would help him out of his difficulty,
but his expectations have been in vain, as
he to-day received a telegram from Eller
stating that the railroad had turned the car
of melons over to a dealer to sell, aud that
they had sold it for 500.
<AAbOl ICC0ANAuS 0ulS w
telegraphed to friends in Louisville and
says he will make the matter all right soon.
The ge .eral opinion here is that his house
has not treated him right and that he him
self meant nothing wrong.
AN ALLEGED SwINDLER FROM NEW YORK.
1t is also an open secret now that a
german, Rosenthal by name, hailing from
| New York, has 6eeced a number of melon
| shippers, not only here but at several other
| points on the Savannah, Florida and West
ern road. He was here last week and bought
cars right aid left, giving drafts on b. C.
| Fuller of New York in paw
ment. James Tyson of this
county lost two cars through him,
Capt J. g. Mccall one, and w. C. Morrow
one. He is also said to have several other
victims at Boston, and other points. 1t is
estimated that he swindled growers out OF
about thirty cars altogether. Such trans
actions as this will probably learn melor
shippers lesson, and teach them not tC

MURDERED BY SHERIFFS.
A NEW VERSION OF THE WALTON
COUNTY TRAGEDY.


Eye Witnesses Claim That Russell and
Pye Were Shot Down without
Warning-The Assertion That Russell
Was Killed Accidentally by Pye Dis
proven-The Men Acting Without
Authority.
PENSACOLA, FLA, June 27.-Regarding
the killing of R. D. Russell and Pink Pye
at Camptown, Walton county, this state,
last Saturday, previously reported. the
NEWS correspondent has later advices
which put an altogether different face upon
the matter. A coroner's jury has held an
inquest over the bodies of the slain men,
and the evidence adduced was of such a
character as warranted the recommenda-
ton by the jury that three of the officers,
Sheriff Costello and Deputy Sheriff Black
Of Alabama and Deputy Sheriff Morrison
of this state be held for murder. 1t will be
remembered that the former story of this
tragedy showed the officers as acting upon
the defensive
RUSSELL NOT KILLED BY PYE.
1t was stated that bullet from Pye's
revolver, aimed at Black, had penetrated
Rus ellis neck, killing the latter upon the
spot and that Pye, who was in the middle
of the room, was riddled with lead by
simultaneous fire of the officers. The bullet
that killed Russell entered the latter's body
below the neck behind, ranging downward
in front and not coming out as related.
Russell's neck was powder burned. showing
that the weapon from which the fatal bullet
sped was held close against him aud that
Pye could not have fired the shot, as he was
in the middle of the room, some distance
away.
CLAIMS OF EYE-wITNESSES.
witnesses say that the officers got
close upon the house lefore they were de-
tected, and commenced firing without
word of warning. Pye stood in the middle
of the room and was hit twice. His aged
mother ran to and threw her arms around
him. and as one of the officers approached
both begged that he might be shot no more,
but the officer deliberately placed his
weapon against Pye's body, being careful
to avoid the woman's arm, and fired the
shot that ended the fight, and from which
Pye shortly afterwards died.
HAD NO JURISDICTION.
But the worst has not been told 1t is
related. upon apparently good authority,
that the Alabama officers were acting upon
warrants issued out of an Alabama court,
and that they had no requisition papers
whatever. Public sentiment in Walton
county is against the officers. who are now
regarded as having committed an unwar-
ranted and most brutal murder. So far as
learned, no arrests have yet been made.
The Alabama officers have gone back to
their home, Geneva county An officer
who is one of the four now charged with
completely admits that ne fired one shot,
butssays he thinks that it was without effect.
The grounds upon which he escapes the
general accusation are not known here.

A REMARKABLE RECOVERY.
A Young Woman Regains Her Hear

- Dung oman R6galnS her REAR
ing Lost twenty Years Ago.
MUsKEGoN, MICH, June 22-About
twenty-five years ago, Miss Ella Laughray
of this city, then a child of years, had
severe attack of scarlet fever, from which
she suffered complete loss Of hearing.
During these years she has been under the
care of many eminent physicians, none of
whom seemed able to help her, or to prom
Use her any hope of recovery. About three
weeks since a gathering formed in
her ear, which, after a painful
course, broke and discharged. A few
evenings ago, while conversing with
her parents, she suddenly clapped her hands
to her ears. and exclaimed: "Oh, mamma,
hear" Her astonished parents were slow
to believe so good news, and several tests
were made to test the truthfulness of her as
sertion. When it was found that she had
really regained her long lost sense tho de-
light of all can be imagined. The hope of
all their anxious years had suddenly been
realized when they had about given up all
hope, and in way most unexpected. 1t is
interesting to note Miss Laughray's de-
scription of the impressions produced
upon her senses by different sounds.
To her the mingling of noises
is like the rushing of water. The singing
of birds she describes as soft. The music of
an organ is di,tasteful to her. Its lower
tones are rough, while the tones OF the
piano and violin are soft and pleasing. The
confusion of noises irritates her, and unless
a particular noise is louder sne does not
notice it from the others. Losing her hear
ing as she did when but a child, Miss
Laughray, though well-educated and ac-
complished lady, finds herself obliged to
learn again to speak the language taught

nize the audible word, but only knows it by
the movement of the lips.
