TILTED AT THE LAST HOUR.
A Dawson Girl Engaged to an Alba
nian Gives Him the Slip.

man GlVeS Him the Slip.
Albany, Ga, Nov. 14.-Several days
ago it was announced in a dispatch to the
MORNING News from this city that J. B.
Manrey, of this city, would lead to the
marriage altar on the 18th, which is to-
morrow, Miss Laura Bell Griffin, fair
and winsome young lady of Dawson. But
that marriage will not come off, uOtwith-
standing that every preparation had been
made, even unto the making of the we'd
ding garments and the furnishing of an
elegant room, which, in anticipation, was
TO be veritable bower of love. But all
this is changed, and instead of to-mor-
row being his wedding day the pangs of
disappointed hope will fill Mr..
Manrey's bosom because the goddess at
whose shrine he wOrshipped has become
the wife of another man, and that man is
young German named r.. A. Emmer-
mann, former resident of this city, con
nected with the cotton firm of Won Gun
dell Il Co, who has only been in America
about three years, and speaks English
very indiferently. But he got there Just
the same.
GOODNESS THAT WAS CHILLING.
AS has been his custom for some
months, Mr.. Alanrey paid visit to Daw-
son last Sunday, and calling at the home
of his bride elect, he was met with the in
formation that the young lady was indis-
posed and could not see him. Feeling
justified. however, by an engagement of
twelve months, and the close proximity
of their wedding day, he insisted upon
seeing his atfianCed, and did see her,
but Notwithstanding she tried to
show her usual affection, there was an
iciness and lack of warmth in the inter
view which filed the young mans heart
with gloomy fOrebOdings, and he returned
home anything but happy Yesterday
Mr.. Manrey received a telegram calling
him to Dawson at once. There was no
intimatiOn in it that his love had played
him false.
TRANSFIXED WITH ASTONIsHME-JT
When he arrived there he was almost
transfXed with establishment to learn
that she who had vowed many times af-
lection, and had promised to be the truest
and best friend on earth to him in the
tickleness of her heart, had cast out his
image as so much rubbish, at the moment
when the skies of his future seemed
lighting up with golden promise 1t was
dead sea fruit turned to ashes upon his
lips. Another Delilah had robbed a strong
man of his strength and there was one
more illustration of the old truism
that there is many slip 'twixt cup and
lip. 1t is not amiss to say that Mr.. Manrey
is taking the matter philosophically. He
is one of Albany's best young men and, so
universal is the esteem in which he is
held, that his friends feel a personal sad
ness in his disappointment.

From the Washington Post QndO.
In the state of Ohio the tariff question was
naturally much talked about during the cam
patgn, The candidacy of Gov. Mckinley and
the well-known free trade tendencies of his
opponent naturally led to some discussion of
the tarif question, but had Neal been elected
governor of Ohio he would have been unable
TO make single change in the tariff law.

The House Of Representatives should
be able to extract lots of fun from Senator
Wooten's military bills when they are re
ceived from the Senate and before they
are killed. The state really needs no
more colonies; Gov. Northen does not
need a major to write letters for him, and
titles are too cheap now. Instead of turn
ing out more officers, something ought to
be done to put lot of them back into the
ranks.

now chaplain of the Soutern institute, and
he said that the work suited him exactly.
He did not think the church should put

marks with a statement that he never ex-
pected to attend another meeting of the
association, and his farewell remarks
were especially pathetic.
Several changes were made upon the
boards at the meeting this evening, and,
after the discussion of the remainder of
the programme and the adoption of reso-
lutions, the meeting adjourned.

General AssOciationof Virginia, which be-

Friday night, ended its session this even

THE REPORT ON EDUCATION.
The report of the committee on educa-

shows that thirty-three institutions of
learning in the state were under Baptist
control and management, fifteen for boys
and young men, and eighteen for girls and
young women. OF these twenty-four
were in Eastern Virginia, five in the val
ley and four in the western part of the
state. Several new institutions were
added to the list by members of the asso-
citation present.

objected to a criticism of the state insti-
buttons in the printed reports of the Bap-

church was claiming control of the public
schools on the ground of taxes paid and

ask for representation in the faculties of
state institutions, as DIR. Landrum had
suggested, was a bad precedent. These
institutions were conducted without

AS TO HIS MIND.
Dick Ward Is to Be Tried First for
Insanity.


Richard Ward. the jockey accused of the
murder of John Kelly at the Bay District
track, was to have come up for trial in
Judge Daingerfpld's court yesterday.
However, when the case was called the
defendants attorney, James III. Long. ad-
ressed the court respecting the men tai con-
dition of his client. He maintained that
Ward was insane and that the proper
course would be for jury to pass upon
his sanity before proceeding to trial on
the serious charge pending against him.
Judge Dangerfield said that In order 10
proceed with such case it would be neces.
sary for some one to lodge formal COM
plant against Ward, and for an affidavit
to be filed.
81 have filed such an affidavit, your
Honor. l will myself testify" said Mr..
Long.
The Judge agreed to this, and Long, be-
ing sworn, said that since he had akeu up
the case he had been unable to get an
answer from Ward to any question put 10
him. Ward would say. why am locked
up here ?" and then lapse into sulen silence.
1t was noticeable 10 the courtroom that
the lad had sat with his head bent almost
to his knees all the time and appeared to
take no interest In the proceedings.
Judge Daingerfeld thought the evidence
sufficient, and ordered the trial ON the in
sanity question to proceed without DELAY.
II must ask for time" said MIR. Long. 81
was not sure that the court would grant
nv motion and l am unprepared."
you've had three months to prepare
your case" said the Judge. 'The trial
must proceed at once.
"Then I withdraw from the case" said
Mr.. Long.
Gall right, sir" returned the Judge. 81
appoint Attorney j. 7. Smith to undertake
the defense.
The work of impaneIing jury was then
proceeded with, and when the noon recess
arrived the jury had been selected. The
trial was then continued until to-day.
