verdict Of murder. as the state had clearly
proved that the shooting was deliberate,
and death had resulted from 1t through
blood poisoning.
THE OTHER SIDES VIEW.
Mr.. Davis tried to make the jury believe
that freyer's story about the shooting
being accidental was true. He pleaded with
the jury not to convict his client when the
victims death was due TO neglect.
Mr.. Stubs closed the arguments. He
tried to smooth over the prisoners conduct
10 calling old man Ferguson a monkey by
saying 1t was an unfortunate state Of affairs
that many Of the young now think it man
nish to disrespecs old aRe. He begged the
jury not TO allow anything Of the kind to
influence its verdict, and claimed that DR..
Welchselbaum's testimony showed that
neglect was the cause OF Ferguson's death
and that Freyer wasn't murderer.
Judge Falltgant's charge occupied about
twenty minutes, and the Jury was back In
nye mlnutea with verdict of guilty.
Freyer didn't expect TO be convicted, and
be showed his disappointment by glaring
saVagely at Judge Falligant during the
passing OF the sentence, which consigned
him to the mines for life. The only thing
which saved him from the gsllows was that
Ferguson lived nearly two months after be-

A ratification Of the nomination Of
Cleveland and Stevenson by the democrats
Of Chatham and adjoining counties seems
to be tho next political event.
Chairman w. G. Charlton of the demo-
cratic county executive committee said
yesterday that he thoughta general ratifi-
cation Of the ticket by the democrats of
this section would have good effect If
carried out properly. Besides the local
speakers, with whom the people here are all
well acquainted, good speakers from
abroad whom the people would be glad to
hear can be Obtained. 1t is understood that
Hon. J. C. G. Black Of Augusta has ex-
pressed willingness to address the people
notwithstanding the campaign he
is now making for congress
in the Tenth district. Mr.. Charlton said he
will speak if desired. Mr.. duBignon and
Col. Mercer would also speak, as both were
present and were active in the nomination
of Mr.. Cleveland.
The railroads, 1t is understood, will give

BAKING POWDER.

CLEVELAND AND STEVENSON ENDORSED.
Mr.. Prendergast offered the following
resolution:
Resoiyed, That we, the executive committee
OF the democratic party OF Chatham county,
/ hereby cordially ratify the nominations OF
Cleveland and Stevenson. to whom we pledge
our Voses and our earnest and active support
Mr.. Prendergast said he thought 10 pro-
per that such action should be taken by the
executive committee Of the Democratic
party of the county. The resolution did
not prove a bomb in the camp by any
means. as some might have supposed from
the number of known anbi-Clevelaud
men upon the committee. 1t was
promptly seconded by several
former anti-Clevelaud men, VINO
expressed themselves in hearty accord with
10. Mr.. Dixon said he had been strongly
opposed to both Mr.. Cleveland and Mr..
Hill, but now the ticket had been named he
should give it his vote and support
Justice Sheftall said there are no anti
Cleveland men now.
Mr.. Rockwell. another anti Cleveland
leader, said be thought the resolution emf
nently proper upon the part Of the commit
tee. 1t was passed unanimously.
W. G. CHARLTON FOR ELECToR AT LARGE.
The chairman was just about to put a
motion TO adjourn when he was surprised
With request to Vacate the chair in favor
or MIR. Dixon, which he did and awaited
developments. Mr.. Dixon reclined quite
comfortably in the chairman's seat, while
several committeeman prepared the follow
ing resolution, which was offered by Mr..
Owens, the temporary secretary:
ResoEUed, That we, the executive committee
OF the Democratic party of this county, recog-
nlzinR the EN- nent ability of w. g. Charlton of
Chatham county and the great service rendered
by him to the democracy of this state, earnestly
recommend him to the party as elector for the
state at large.
The resolution was passed unanimously
MIR. Charlton expressed his thanks for the
compliment paid him, not so much that he
might expect TO obtain the office for which
he was mentioned, but for the expression of
confidence on the part OF the committee.
II greatly appreciate an expression of
this kind from this committee" said Mr..
Charlton. II greatly doubted the wisdom
of the plan of electing the committee by
the party at large when 1t was 80
desired and feared the result. must say,
however, that have never presided over
an ADLER and more satisfactory committee,
and consequently such an expression of APP
prevail by it is very pleasing to me-"
The committee then adjourned. The po-
litical pot has just twenty-four DAYS in
which to seethe and boil now before the
primary on July %. 1t will take long
ticket 20 hold all the names at that election.

The party was early on board and
watched the loading Of the vessel with in
teresk
Several carloads of watermelons were
loaded during the last hour be-
fore the vessels departure and
the process proved very interesting to the
editors. The melon crop has not

CONDITION ON rHE MARKET.

There Is differences Of opinion among
local firms as Co the outlook for business
While all agree that between Jan. l
and June 81 1t was far from being salts
factory, and that during that time it de-
vslopeG little tendency to improve, some
are of the opinion that signs OF better
ment OF prices are now appearing. The
majority, though, do not appear 30 think
there will be any change Of any con-
sequence during the remainder of 1892
Prices now rule about the same as ct this
time last year and allow but little margin
for profit, especially for the smaller mill
owners Despite this, new men are still
going into the business, increasing the sup
ply, already greater than the demand, and
threatening to still further cut down prices
in the competition for a market for their
output 1t 10 out Of this unpleasant and I'M
profitable state of affairs that the continual
talk OF combinations arises. There is
little hope Of relief from this
source on the part Of Savannah lumber
men They simply regard the situation as q
case Of the survival OF the strongest and
bold that in time the trouble will remedy
itself by the depression forcing small con-
Germs out of the business, especially as,
when the timber becomes more exhausted,
and further from the shipping points,
greater capital will be required for the
building Of tramways, etc. This will be,
said one firm yesterday, the salvation Of the
lumber business in Georgia.

A Holiday and How to Spend 1t.

Nature demands that the mind and body,
alike, require an occasional rest or cessation
from their accustomed habits. Following
continuously in the old ruts either over
taxes the mind and body or they grow
torpid.
We should, therefore, seize the oppor.
tunity for a change to secure rest and recre-
alton.
Especially in the long heated term Of the
southern summers is this necessary.
Next Monday the GLORIOUS Fourth" pre-
sents such an occasion, and If we were asked
how and where TO spend the holiday, we
would suggest Tybee Island, with its un-
surpassed beach, commodious hotels.
What is more desirable at this season than
the refreshing breezes from the ocean, or q
surf bath, cooling and invigorating, this il
the best tonic obtainable.
Among the other attractions at Tybee are
the musical discourses Of Cobb's orchestra
the pavilions and the opportunity for
dancing.
What recommends Tybee in addition ia
the above advantages is the low rate of 3s
cents for the.round trip, which has lately been
placed in effect by the Central Railroad OF
Georgia; then again, the run occupies but
forty-Ave minutes and the schedules are SO
favorable that all are suited.
Indeed, it can be truly said Of the Cen.
trail, in view of the interest they show in
accommodating the public, that it is run

BTulching.

In farm parlance q mulch is any ma
terial laid upon the surface Of the soil in
such manner as to prevent the evapora-
ton of water. Where mulching is prac.
tical in agriculture, however, such sub.
stances MS straw, leaves, damaged hay
and tho like are the ones most usually
employed. The effect of mulching,
which is more practiced in horticulture
than in ordinary farming, may readily
be seen BY lifting up board or stone
that has laid fiat on the surface, when
the ground will be found moist beneath
it. The capillary connection has boen
maintained up to the under surface OF
the mulching substance, which has
stopped tho upward movement of the
moisture and hindered its escape to the
atmosphere.
From the nature of the case, mulching
of the character named cannot be ex-
tensively used i'll farm practice. Pota-
toes have sometimes been grown under
mulch of straw, but more as an ex-
pertinent than as profitable method.
In the garden such mulching is often
useful to limited extent. Thus by
nulching Strawberries between the
rows moisture isretainod and the berries
arc kept from the ground.
The best substitute for an actual
mulch is thin surface layer of loose
EARTH, such as can be made with the hoe
Or cultivator. While not perfect mulch
for conserving moisture it will havethat
effect to considerable extent, and,
along with the destruction of weeds,
two purposes may be well served by the
snIhe oGernLion.

THE DREAD scoURaH.
All Europe Alarmed Over tho Spread
Of Cholera.


LONDON, Aug. 26.-The cholera news
has caused great panic in Europe. 1t
is the one absorbing topic of converse
tion. Politics, finance, society-all is
forgotten in reading bulletins from the
infected districts.
During the past week it is stated that
there have been about twenty thousand
new cases in European cities and that
there have been about ten thousand
deaths. To put 1t as the figures say,
there have been 1890 new cases dis
covered and 9.8sl deaths.
1t is only natural that there should be
panic, as the fact cannot be disguised
that the terrible plague is en- the in
crease.
The Hamburg and Antwerp authori-
ties are being severely criticised by the
press and people for having kept them
in ignorance as to the true condition of
affairs. Yesterday in Hamburg 169
deaths were reported.
In Berlin ono new case Of Asiatic
cholera was reported.
In Paris there are thousands of Rms
sian Jews. They are dirty and their
clothing filthy. The greatest fear pre-
walls that the dreaded disease will break
out there, although stringent sanitary
rules are enforced and every precaution
taken to prevent it getting a foothold.
In Russia the scourge is on the in
crease, though yesterdays death rate is
reported as lower.
1t is stated that in East Prussia the
plague has full sway and is creating
sad havoc. 1t has also broken out in
Galicia.
WASHINGTON, Aug 28.-The vice con-
sui general at Teheran telegraphs that
the estimated deaths in Persia from the
cholera are $4,000; 5000 in Mesched, 12,-
600 in Tabriz, 5000 in Teheran and 49,
900 in other places.
