TooMsBoRo's BURGLARS.
The Two Suspects Sent to Jail in
Default of $4,000 Bail.

OAooAb Va QCsOOO LON.
IRwINToN, GA, March THE looms
boro burglars, Hart and Rogers, have been
committed to Jail under bond of $1,000
each. The evidence against them
was very strong Chief Kenan, of
the police force of Macon, testified
that the handwriting in a memorandum
book left in the store on the night of the
burglary, and found by Mr.. Baum, CORE
sponded most strikingly with the writing
on slip of paper found upon the person of
Rogers.
Chief Kenan further said that the chart
found upon the prisoner, Hart, corresponded
exactly to the chart found i'll the store of
Mr.. Baum on the morning after the bur-
glary.
A negro woman, Amanda Bradley, who
lived near Toomsboro, testified that she
provided dinner for a suspicious-looking
man on Wednesday, and the burglary oc-
Cured that night. When the prisoner.
Rogers, was pointed out to Amanda, and
she was asked if she recognized the man,
she said: That's the very man" A negro
woman. who lived a few miles above
Toomsboro, testified that she gave two
suspicious-looking men dinner the day after
the robbery. The woman's name is Harriet
Carswell; she also identified the men.
Joseph Pearson, whose store in Gordon
was burglarized some few weeks since, iden-
titled on the stand a watch upon the pris-
oner Rogers. In the prisoners behalf Mr..
| Griggs of Macon testified that, to the best
of his ability, knowledge and belief, he saw
the prisoners in Macon on the night of the
burglary. A negro man testified absolutely
that ne saw them in Macon on Wednesday
| night. The pegro's evidence didn't go for
much. When Rogers and Hart were first
arrested in Macon rhaV said tbaw had pauar
been in the neighborhood of Toomsboro.
Later they confessed having been there,
but on a different errand than charged
them. Everybody feels confident the right
men have been captured. The faal trial
comes off in April.

neatest court houses of any country town,
two large hotels, three fine churches, COM

SHARP TRICK OF A Pua1L1sT.
AN ALDERMAN SLAIN.
He is the Victim of Three Bullets
Fired by Foe.


Fired by Foe.
GRIFFIN, GA, March Last night
Alderman j. III. Powell was shot by Milton
Mccullough in front of George Seymour's
bar A difficulty had occurred in the bar be-
tween the men over a trivial matter They
passed out on the platform in the front
as if friendly, when, to the
surprise of everybody within,
three shots in rapid succession were heard.
1t was soon learned that Jack Powell had
been shot. The first ball is supposed to
have simply produced flesh wound. The
second struck Powell on his left side, in the
nelghborhood of the heart, and spent its
strength by the time it passed through the
letters and memorandum book in his coat
and vest pockets. The bail was afterward
found in Powell's vest pocket.
THE DEATH WOUND.
The third ball struck him in the left side
of his back, passed through his body, taking
a downward course, and stopped just inside
the skin in the lower part of his right side,
producing a wound which resulted in his
death at 4 o'clock this morning.
Powell is well known throughout the
state He had been drinking for some DAYS.
and it is supposed this had something to do
with the shooting.
Mccullough is a man who is classed
among the sporting men of the CITY, and
not long ago shot a man in a difficulty.
After the shooting he ran through an alley
opposite to the bar and made his escape.
PowelPS father Is lii Valdosta on business,
and has been telegraphed. Powell about
two years ago married a granddaughter OF
Mai M. r. Rogers of Macon, and leaves a
widow and one child.
