The Third Party Men OF the Eleventh
Asked Him to Be Their Leader.
BRUNSWICK, GA, Aug. 2.-Judge M. 8.
Mershon, Glynn's next representative, is in
great demand among the democrats Of the
Eleventh and Second districts. He was to-
day invited by C, B. Murrell, vice president
of the Dodge County Democratic Club, 70
meet the third partyites at a grand
barbecue in DODGE county on
Aug. 3. The third partyltes
have grown aggressive and threw chsl-
lenRes at the democrats. Judge hershon
will doubtless respond. He has done noble
y ork for the democracy in this section and
deserves the honors that are being heaped
upon him. The third Partyites quietly met
at Jesup to-day. Delegates from different
portions of the Eleventh district we're dres-
ent, but the attendance was rather small,
considering the boasts that the members
have been making, and enthusiasm was
rather scant.
This afternoon 10 was rumored in Bruns-
wick that Judge Courtlandt Symmes OF
Glynn had received a telegram from r u.
Stansell on behalf of the convention, asking
him il be would accept the nomination or
the Peoples party for congress in the
Eleventh district. The News correspondent
interviewe Judge Symmes tonight. He
admitted that such telegram had been re-
ceived by hiu. and after much questioning
said he replied that, believing that the
Democratic party is the party for the people,
he could not accept a nomination by the
peoples parry. The presentation Of Judge
Symmes' name was probably due TO the fact
that he opp sed Representative Turner in
the recent congressional race on behalf of
a personal friend whose platform contained
a partial indor cement of the Ocala demands,
although Judge Synmes, himself, was never
heard &c ''ndorse his candidates platform.
No one he. looked upon Judge Symmes as
an acceptable candidate TO the third party
ties. and it is safe to say they will cut but lit
tie figure in the coming contest. Their plan
was to wait until near election day and
spring a candidate suddenly who would
sweep the district But the democracy is
too strong here for them, and their move
to-day clearly demonstrates their weakness.
They cannot gel a strong candidate.

MACON AND NORTHERN.
The Attorneys for Mr. Rucher Go to
Consult Judge Newman.

Consult Judge Newman.
ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 2.-The receivers Of
the Richmond aud Danville and Central
roads, Jeptba Rucher. the recently sp-
pointed receiver OF the Macon and North
ern railroad, and R. N. Harris, president of
the Macon and Northern road, are each
engaged in an effort TO gain control Of the
Macon and Northern road. 1t is thought
that before the match ends Judge W. T.
Newman and Judge Emory Speer will be
drawn into the difficulty. When the Cen
trial railroad went into the bands Of a re-
ceiver the Macon and Northern was being
operated by the Central and the Richm 1nd
and Danville roads, jointly. The receivers
of the Danville and Central appointed a
board OF control to operate
was chosen chairman Of the board. About
a week ago, on the petition Of Edward Van
name Of New York. Jeptha Rucher was aD-
pointed receiver Il the road by Judge
Newman. When Mr.. Ruoher went to
Athens to take charge OF the road as recsiver
Mr.. Harris declined TO give him possession.
He secured, however, control Of tbs Athens
end Of the line and has been operating that,
while Mr.. Harris, as president, has been
operating the rest OF the line. Shortly after
appointing the receiver Judge Newman left
the city for Virginia aud has heard
nothing Of Mr.. Rucher's troubles in
attempting to secure possession of
the road. To-day the attorneys
for Mr.. Rucher before Judge Newman
went to ask him for an order compelling
Mr.. Harris to deliver the road to Mr.
Rucher. 1t is thought that if Judge New
man issues the order that an application
will be filed before Judge Speer. asking
him to appoint Mr.. Harris receiver OF the
road. The attorneys for the Richmond and
DanvilIe In the city fear that Judge Speer
will appoint the receiver, or that he will
hold that the road is practically In the
hands Of the receiver OF tue Central road.
II Judge Newman orders Mr. Harris to
deliver the roSd to Mr.. Rucher 1t is feared
there will be troubles )me clash bet ween

KILLED BY LIGHTNING.

The Current Passes Into a Negroes
Body Via an Umbrella.
GAINESVILLE, FLA, Aug. 2-During the
rain here to-day a negro man named Jack
James, working in Charlie Caleloughs rock
quarry, mile from town, sought shelter
under a hornbean bush about four inches in
diameter, holding his umbrella over him.
He was squathng on the earth the point of
mis- umbrella touching the sapling about
"a feet from the ground. A current of
lightning struck the tree about feet below
the top. descended about six more to the
place where the point of the umbrella rested
and taking this melted a hole the size Of a
cedar pencil in the brass crown, thence
down TO the mans hand where 1t rent the
staff in twain, throwing the han ile part to
the right and the ribbed portion to the left
