Ella Fason tcoloredl, accomplice in the muir

ago. Ella was sentenced 20 hang witE

too much for her and she went crazy, and
out Of mercy was ordered to the insane

Brunswick is alive with enthusiasm over
the approaching convention OF the

Prof W. W. Wallace, now principal OF

has purchased property from Edwin Brobs-

Of three-story building with accommoda-

NEGRO MPUDESCE.
This afternoon Miss Clara Hatcher Of
Waynesville arrived on the noon train to
visit Mrs. Schriever, on Gloucester street.
Mr.. johnson, brother of a prominent
lawyer here, seeing that no one was near
TO take care of her, escorted Miss
Hatcher to a carriage, and then giving
the driver directions to Mrs. Schriener's
home, and, thinking she would be safely
carried there, left the depot. But there was
an old, crippled negress on the train, and a
yellow negro had her 10 charge. He helped
the woman to the same carriage Miss
Hather was seated in, piled her in with the
assistance of the driver, then jumped in
himself and gave orders TO drive of.
Miss Hatcher was helpless, and had
to submit 70 the imposition. She was car
ried safely to her destination, however, and
after leaving the carriage the driver drove
off. The white people connected with the
affair are eminently respectable, and their
friends who know of the occurrepoe are en-
deavoring to find the negroos who were In
the carriage.

GEORGIA AND THE FAIR.
Gov. Northen Wants the State tc
Make an Exhibit.

9oV. HOrtnen wants the state TO
Make an Exhibit.
ATLANTA, GA, Feb. 1S.-Gov. Northen,
finding that other states are appropriating
hundreds Of thousands of dollars in order
that they may have creditable exhibits at
the approaching worlds fair, and that
Georgia is debarred from such action by the
terms OF her constitution, contemplates
writing an address urging upon the peo-
pie the Importance of advertising the
states resources at the exposition.
His plan is to interest the railroads, cities
and farmers in the matter, feeling confident
that the cost of the exhibit, if borne by
them, will be repaid tenfold by the good
resulting to the state at large. The only
preparation which seems to have been made
yet was the appointment of Commissioners
McLaws and Way by Gov. Gordon, and at
their request delegates by the late agricult-
ural convention, 10 ascertain what could be
done IN the respective congressional dis
tricts.
SHOULD BE REPEALED.
Gov. Northen says that in his opinion the
clause of the states constitution which for
bids appropriations for such purposes ought
to be repealed. He thinks 1t is a great mis-
take TO lock up the treasury and throw
away the key, but, the law being such as it
is, he will suggest as the most practicable
method for making an exhibit that delega-
tions from the railroads. cities, al
lance and agricultural societies
be convened together and steps
be taken by them to prepare an exhibit, and
to raise from the business interest they rep
resent sufficient funds for transportation.
The railroads, he believes, would cheerfully
undertake TO furnish minerals and
woods, the farmers an agricultural
display and the cities to ex.
hibit their MANUFACTURES and other
interesting resources and advantages ''The
cost of transportation" said the governor,
''would not be large, as very low rate:
could be secured; and l feel sure that the
it thoroughly practicable to achieve the
desired end without aid from the govern
meutn

GAINESVILLE, FLA, Feb. 1S.-That
Gainesville has not been slow in melting
out justice to thieves. house burners and
midnight assassins was shown when the
two men caught yesterday were found hang
ing in a grove just north of town early
this morning. The jailer and guards were
overpowered about 10 o'clock last night
by a mob of 800. The two prisoners we're
taken out and carried quietly TO the fatal
spot. where they were given few moments
time to pray. Then they were hanged a
short distance apart on two oak trees. Both
confessed to being concerned in the killing
of Mcpherson Monday night and the shoot
ing at DIR. Phillips the night before. They
admitted that some Of the gang had fred
the Dennis house Monday night as a signal
for them to return from McPherson's and
rob a store In town.
BENT ON ROBBERY.
1t was their intention to have robbed Pa
Miller's store Sunday night, when they were
surprised by an officer, ana shooting began.
There seems to DO nothing in the way of
burglary they have not been concerned in.
The man who shot Mcpherson is yet at
large, but was met this evening on the
Rock road with his gun. The party who
saw hun was alone and unarnied. A crowd
is after him and he will soon be captured.
There is said to be yet another
who has not been seen since Mon
day. A large amount Of tools and
guns and stolen goods has been captured in
their house. The white man who was
hanged claimed TO be an Englishman. He
had many aliases, and registered in town as
