ing the Revenue Laws.
Carrollton, Ga, May 20.-The grand
jury of Douglas county and Solicitor
Richardson of the Tallapo0sa circuit have
demonstrated the fact that Douglas
county has not been without the "blind
tiger" and their Investigations and prose-
cutions have resulted in the downfall of a
number of these unlawful whisky places
In a special to the News a week ago it
was stated that the grand jury of Doug
las county had found two true bills
against John NJ, James for the alleged
handling of whisky. Owing to the prom
inence of Mr.. james and his family con-
nection the finding of these true bills
proved to be extremely sensational.
In his trial before Judge James at
Douglasville, Mr.. James, who was de-
Tended by his brother, District Attorney
Joe s. James, pleaded guilty to three in
diotments, and was fined $500 and costs.
Mr.. James has promised to close out the
distillery, and have nothing more to do
with the whisky business, and the good
citizens of Douglas, and especially those
in the neighbOrhOOd of the distillery,
from which much evil seems to have been
the outcome, are rejoicing over the pros
poets of its removal
The injunction case of E. II. Camp ct
al against the town authorities of Doug
lasville to prevent the collection of taxes
on property which lies in what is known
as "the new CUT was dismissed This
suit was commenced in 1891, at the time a
new charter was granted.
Manning Gore, a grand iuryman, was
fined $40 and discharged from the jury for
divulging secrets of the grand jury room
All he claims to have said was that if
some of the boys knew what he did they
would be leaving
p n. Brown barn was burned
Saturday night and among other things
two milk cows, 2G0 bushels of corn and
5000 bundles of fodder were consumed.

meath the Wheels of His Train.

Greensboro, Ga. May ga sad accident
occurred on the Georgia railroad near
Union Point this afternoon by which
George Arnold, conductor of the up way
freight. lost his life. The freight train
had Just left Union Point and about a
mile this side Mr. Arnold discovered some
negroes stealing a ride on a coal ear. He
left his cab and went over the top of the
cars and made them get off. The train
then moved off and Mr.. Arnold started
back TO the cab. In going from a freight
car to a coal car he lost his footing
and fell under the moving
train. The trucks of two cars
run over his left leg and arm, horribly
crushing them. A train hand saw him
lying on the side of the track as the cab
passed, and stopped the train Mr.. Ar
mold waskconscious when reached, but
was growing terribly weak from loss of
blood, which was streaming from his
mangled limbs. The train was backed to
Union Point and physicians sent for, but
the shock and loss Of blood were so great
that they were powerless 10 do anything.
In about an hour after the accident he
died Mr.. Arnold was one of the most
popular conductors on the Georgia road.
