Daily Ne,cs describes the murder Of destitute
widow living in the village of Snamensko. who
was alleged to be witch. and the trial Of
eleven Of the villagers on the charge Of being
concerned in the murder. The poor woman
was first attacked by a mob led by the village
elder and scribe She was shamefully NAL
treated and left for dead; but she regained con-
seriousness. Then another mob dragged her
about and, finally, beat her to death. All the
prisoners stoutly maintained that they had a
right to Kill a witch. The prisoners were found
guilty, and some OF them were sentenced to i'm
prisonment and others to lose their civil rights.

crat he read plank or two in the third
party platform and then read a comment
from democratic paper and remarked,
''That Is what our enemies say Of us" The
third party orators failed TO
advance single reason why
our people should follow the strangers
who have come among Us preaching their
new and dangerous doctrine. Col Wooten
concluded the discussion. He completely
riddled the third party faIlacies He showed
up Weaver In his true light. and gave the
third party a black eye. His ressonlngs
were sound and convincing, and, judging
from the hearty applause given him, bis
views were popular, and his expressions
voiced the sentiments of at least three
fourths of those present.
Dr. Pickett said be did not want any moro
joint discussions and he thought 1t was best
for the democrats to have their meetings TO
themselves and the Peoples party to them
selves.

this county. The third party has broken
the alliance strength in Thomas. aud all
that now remains is for genaine untainted
democrats to take possession OF the party.
The following delegates were elected tod ~:
R. L. Hicks, J.. M Lee, J. R. Singletary, J.
R. Burch. j. B. Eason, w. A. Monroe and

The action OF the mass meeting
in Thomas was not rescinded but

to-day by the primaries- Those counties
which had held mass meetings before the
detection of the third psrtyites all sent

IN MEMORIAM.
IN MEMORY OF THE DEAD.

1t is the prevailing weakness Of mankind to
exaggerate the virtues of tie dead, to gloss
over their faults, aud to present such pictures
of those we mourn, that should they live again,
they themselves would fail 70 recognize the
drawing
This brief memorial ia designed TO bring to
mind woman Of many frailties perhaps, yet
whose great heart was so charged with
love for her kind. that she is remem bered as
one who lived for the peace. the comfort and
the happiness of Others
Conscious Of her own short comings, much OF
her life was spent aside from her daily lAbors,
not only IN prayer, but in active deeds OF mercy
toward others. She lived animated by that
pure spirit OF charity. which thinketh well OF all
men The charity which gives from abund-
ahce Is common and deserves no commenda-
ton, but the charity which thinketh no evil and
has naught but kindly words for the culpable 1
rare plant, an exotic Of tender growth, and the
dear subject Of this memorial was one Of its
most careful gardeners.
Therefore We beseech the prayers Of all good
people for her eternal rest: 1T is a good and
holy thing, says Holy Scripture, TO pray for
the dead. and in the prayers of the living may
be found much Of comfort and blessedness for
those who have gone before.
Your prayers are earnestly solicited for the

CLAY IS SOLID.

The Democrats Have the County by
Big Majority.
FORT GAINES, GA. July 3O.-In accord
ance with the wishes Of the executive COM
mittee II the Second congressional district
primary for the election of delegates to
the district convention was duly held here
to-day. Those who participated were
mostly Of the towns, the alliance faction
having held their primary here on April 30,
electing delegates and instructing for Hon.
o. b Stevens The delegates elected to-day
will most likely be the ones seated at the
convention, and they go UNRESTRICTED. The
alliance primary polled 1913 votes, aud the
returns of to-day will be several hundred
ahead OF that number. One hundred
and fifteen votes were pollsd at
this precinct, and Bluffton, a precinct,
pledges at least 100 and Cotton Hill 10 or Is
more. This SCORES a victory. doubtless, for
straightout democracy, but may cause the
organization of the third party In this
county after the convention in Albany. The
returns have not been brought in yet.
