hurriedly jumped from the boat, and while
pulling a rope from the boat bis shotgun
loaded with No. 8 shot. was accidentally
discharged, the load passing no his right
thigh and into tha lower part of the abdo-
men. They we're six or eight miles from a
physician and no medical assistance
could he had, or his life in all probability
could have been saved, as be practically
bled TO death. He lived several hours after
the accident, and was conscious up to the
last moment, informing his wife of his
wishes as to the distribution of his large es-
tate. He was born at Blackshear, Ga, in
1S49, but had lived in and was an honored and
worthy citizen Of this county for many
years. He was a self-made man, endowed
with noble traits and Christian character.

lands. saw-mlls and Other property, a
handsome fortune. He was Mason in

cises at his late home, at Barberville, to-

Anedote OF Gen. Beauregard.

The death Of Gen. Beauregard recalls to
an old contributor to Rdrper'S Weekly the
unusual circumstances under which his
last interview with Beauregard took place.
He writes:
"When in confederate service l was
thrown in with Gen. Beauregsrd in fairly
singular manner, and the incident of my
coming across him would have made a
neat episode for Archibald Forbes. 1t was
two days after tine fall of Columbia, s. G.,
and | had been ordered on ticklish
service. which was to scout as near to
Columbia as possible.
II had been working on from dawn, aud
fairly familiar with the country, avoiding
the roads, had taken short cuts across the
woods. | made out beyond a clump of
trees man somewhat Napoleonesque in at
titude, for his hands were olasped behind
his back He vas striding to and fro be-
fore some embers. Peering through the
thicket which screened me, l knew it was
Gen. Beauregerd 1t never would have
done to have bounced in on him. Ny ar
rival was a surprise. He wheeled quicslyf
as IL on a pivot, and faced me. ] told him
that if be remained an hour more where he
was bivouacking, he stood fair chance OF
being captured.
"de certainly did not know the danger he
was in, was probably much more excited
than was Gen. Besuregard, for he received
the information | gave him with perfect
sang f DID,. Then he called to an officer
VINO was his aid, suppose-who came in
tottsring under an armtul Of wood, and adj
dressed him in French. AS | was familiar
with French; | said, Gen. Beauregard,
English or French are about the same to
me- 80 II you don't wish me to understand
what you are saying, ! had better go away
| again explained conditions to him, giving
him fuller details. In few minutes the
mule was harnessed, the wagon crashed
through the brush, aud that was the last l
saw of Gen. Beauregard.
"Wanting to learn whether he remen-
cred the incident, wrote him in Non
vember, 1884. and this is portion Of his
courteous reply: Il have recollection OF the
incident have no doubt that you saw
me much troubled in mind when
YOU came suddenly upon me on the
road. Il was still in doubt as to
which route to follow
Two hours afterward five companies of
United states cavalry, 400 strong, were

A sad R turn From Inauguration.

"Just before we left Washington on our
homeward journey )" remarked prominent
member of the Bandana Club yesterday
afternoon, lone Of the other boys and my
self purchased bottle Of very fine liquor.
We thought we would save it for the latter
half OF our journey, and so did not touch it,
not even removing the tin foil that was
wrapped about the cork. Our car was very
warm, so in order to keep the whisky cool
tied a stout cord around the neck of the
bottle and hung it cut of the car window,
tying the other end Of the string securely on
the inside. We stopped fer few moments
at Morehesd. My companion and we're
stretched out on one seat of a coach and
were both thinking Of the whisky. l had
hold of the string.
"'I say, Bill. said my friend, let's take a
drink o. the whisky. We are no. so very
far from Louisville, and il we want to drink
it all before we get there we'd letter begin

And he tried TO reach the string, but kept
him back.
"Just then there was tremendous tug at
the string, which broke it in two. We both
locked out Of the window just in time to see
q mountaineer making off up the street as
hard as he could.
"'Now see what you've done, you blamed
foolp said my companion, and was too
much cast down 10 answer him."

The race of public executioners is not
wholly extinct in Belgium, although the
Office has been little more than a sinecure
for nearly half century. The other day
the headsman Of Brussels was borrowed by
headsmanless Bruges to go through with
becoming solemnity the exceedingly silly
ceremony of mailing to post a sentence Of

pose Of the services of Monsieur de Liege,"

with the guilloune ceased in 1855. The dis
appearance of a condemned convict neces-
STATED the journey of Ii. Hsmel to the
banks of the Scheldt, where he gravely per-
formed the same farce as was enacted nv his
colleague of Brussels in the city of Mem
ling. Since 1855 no assassin has persisted
on d Belgian scaffold. Last years csta-
logue of crime in Belgium was long and
terrible; 1898 is still young, bus each week
has brought with il some deed of blood.
Within the last few days the Belgian press
has chronicled the deaths by deliberate vio-
lence Of no fewer than five persons. some Of
them being attended with circumstances Of
aggravAtion which beggar description. In
view of this state of affairs the Belgian
NetUs asks whether this long suspension,
amounting to almost abolition. of capital
punishment has or has not been for the pub
lie good, and suggests that in spite Of the
great aversion which King Leopold is
known to feel TO signing death warrant, the
amended Belgian constitution must deal
efFeetually with a state Of things which has
insensibly rendered negative and Elusive

penal code which should, under other cir
cumstances, strike terror into the hearts of

A Washington EditOr Thinks he

From the Washington Star.
Teenis Rucker OF Georgia is much less
politio than he should be and may yet be
offlceIesI when such other eminent GeOr-
gians as Pod Dismuke, Dink Bolts and
Potsdam Sans are revelIng IN official lux
ury. Teenie Ruoker lost his hat while call
ing upon President Cleveland and was COM
pelled to wait bAreheaded until Speaker
Crisp could purchase new piece OF head-
gear. Yesterday the President notified
Tesnie Rucksr that the mislaid hat
had been found aud might be called
for ct any time. That was much more
of an invitation than has been given to
thousands OF waiting democrats, but
Teenie Rucker says he will not go back to
the white house for any hat; be Las a new
one; what he wants is q situation. In
reaching this conclusion to ignore the presi-

idea prevails, on the savings bank principle.
II he imagined that the President would
keep the hat and send him an appointment
in its stead then he was wrong again. Per-
haps Teenie Ruoker's blunder may not be
fatal IN its effects, but it looks to an un-
prejud ced observer as though Teenie
Rucker was standing on one Of his own
feet while the balance of the procession was
moving toward the green pastures and still
waters reserved for the faithful. Already
has Cooper Pope been provided for, and
there is easy possibility Of success in the
campaigns OF Potsdam Sam. Pod Dismuke
and Dink Bolts, but beyond these there are
clouds. If Teenie Rucker cares to accept
little friendly advice he will call for that
hat. He may not care TO wear it now that
he has a new one, but on pinch he can use
II to talk through.
