ing Of the whole matter:
Whereas, the Governor OF the State

with great and distressing dangers to
the liberties Of our people, and if per.

Secretary of State is the proper and
only officer clothed with authority
to promulgate the same, ignoring
and not mentioning the Governor in
any way, directly or by implication

Ma n and Melon in Collision


From the Savannah News
A prominent lawyer in this city had
a client, the other day, who related a
story which shows that watermel-
on may accomplish great damage
when used as a weapon under certain
circumstances.
The lawyers client is a conductor
on Central Railroad freight train.
A few daye ago, as the train was go
ing up the road at speed of twenty
miles an hour, the conductor was
standing in the top of his caboose
looking ahead out of the window,
with his head resting on his arm.
The train rushed by q small station
where O lot of watermelons were be.
ing loaded in some cars.
As the freight train passed one o1
the hands engaged in loading, in q
spirit of fun, pitched one of the mel.
ons at the conductors head in the
window of the caboose. His aim was
we'll taken and the consequences
were disastrous. The melon struck
the conductor squarely on the face
and arm, knocking out three teeth,
cut his face open, and almost broke
his arm. The joker's melon almost
finished the conductor. The speed at
which the train was running was re-
sponsible for the unusual force of the
blow.
The conductor is now preparing to
sue the party who threw the melon.
The man who threw 1t says he only
wanted to treat the conductor to a
melon.
