SHOT DEAD IN THE ROAD.
Edward Perrin, of Augusta, Killed by
J. W. C1app, q Wood Dealer.

D. W. OAapp3 WoOu OSalwrs
Augusta, Ga, Nov. s.-Edward Perrin,
father of DIR. George T. Perrin, OF Perrin
& Land, of this city, was shot dead to-
day, five miles from Augusta, by j. w.
Clapp, a wood dealer There seems TO be
no immediate cause for the killing, but
the trouble was Of long standing. Several
years ago Perrin and Clapp had words
over the passage of Clapps wood wagons
over a private road through Perrin's
farm, and they seem to have been at outs
for long time. Today Perrin was in
Shinky's blacksmith shop, five miles from
town when Clapp came by on a wood
wagon
THE FATAL QUARREL.
Perrin went out to the wagon, and, af-
ter some words with Clapp called him a
scoundrel. Clapp ordered the negro to
drive on, and as the wagon moved of,
drew his pistol and fired twice at Perrin,
who, thereupun, seized an AK of OF the
back of the wagon and threw IL at Clapp,
who fired three times more. Perrin fell
dead in the road
Clapp took his horse out of the wagon,
rode bareback TO town and surrendered
to the police.
The above is the statement Of witnesses.
The only difference In the statement Of
Clapp and his negro driver, is that Per-
rim seized the ak and hurled il before
Clapp fired at all. The coroner's Jury
pronounced the killing murder, and called
on the grand jury TO investigate the mat
ter promptly.

who had been making a good deal of whisky
without the approval Of the law. The
deputies finally got wind of his operations
and determined to rake in his distillery.
Accordingly one night two officers, Stanley
and Dickey, left Atlanta and went to Blue
Ridge, far up into the very heart of the
mountains Of north Georgia. They had
been riding about an hour over the noun
tainsides when they came upon Oliver walk
ing %along.the road carrying a lantern. He
was allowed to pass, and the officers rode
on, suspecting him and determined to reach
his distillery and raid it before the break
of day.
Did they do it? Well, hardly. It was 10
miles to divers distillery. The road was
rough and rocky. More than this, it was
as dark as Egypt. But Oliver said to him
self, ''Thcse are revenue inspectors, and I'll
see them one better before they shall get
ths pot" The echo Of the horses hoofs had
not died away upon his ears before his
mind was made up to beat those officers to
his distillery, SO, taking off his brogans
and blowing out his luntern, he turned buck
and struck up q fox trot" down the big
road that led around the mountains to his
whisky factory.

they found Oliver covered with dirt and
dust, his clothes dripping with foaming
perspiration. He was painting like a dog
| after an all day chase. He had made his
| trip, run 10 miles over mountain tops, wad-
! ed creeks and branches and taken away his
distillery. but the officers caught him at
last stealing in their footsteps, perhaps
with murdsrous intentions. He threw his
pistol on the ground and gave himself up.
The case OF Rev. DR.. Barrett of Banks
county, Ga, illustrates the general impress
sion that moonshining is not incompatible
with piety. MIR. Barrett had charge of three
Baptist churches and one Illicit distillery.
The revenue officers who went to Banks
county to arrest him last June refrained
from executing their commission when
they found him engaged with his religious
work. They allowed him to fulfill his ell
fragments and preach on Saturday and
Sunday. When he was quite through, they
suggested that he had better 20 to At

ATYF1CAL MOONShlNEhs
the leader of a daring gang OF ambassadors
and has long been regarded as the most
formidable outlaw in all that wild region.
His name has been a terror to deputy mar
shals, and there is great rejoicing in that
fraternity over his arrest.
The members of Morgan's gang were all
finally captured and sent to the p~eniten-
tiary or were paroled, but Morgan himself
held out and defed the government. He
has been hunted again and again, but every
time he has either whipped, driven of the
officers and posses or has captured and de-
tanned them. 1t was only a short time ago
that Morgan captured Dan Cunningham.
one Of the most fearless and daring officers
of the government. who went into Mellow
ell after Morgan determined to capture
him If possible. Morgan learned Of Cum
ningham's approach and lay in wait for
him. When Cunningham came up, Nor
gan covered him with a rife and took him
prisoner. After disarming Cunningham,
much to his surprise, Morgan permitted
him to leave with the advice never to again
enter Wyoming wilds with a warrant.
Morgan is reported to have killed several
men, but in every instance he is said to
have done his killing in fair fight. On one
occasion it is said that lie met 4 party Of
hunters and took them all prisoners with
out assistance.
The illicit distillers of the south furnish
very few characters so desperate as Willard
Morgan. The average moonshiner has
been described as a very ignorant, degraded
and dangerous character, with the fiendish
cruelty and cunning Of the savage. This
is very far from the truth. He is a fair
type Of the average citizen living in his
neighborhood.
He always lives in a poor, sparsely set
tied, mountainous section of the country.
He is . rough, hardy, fearless, hospitable
fellow, true to his friends and chivalrous
with his enemies. He is by nature and ed
ucation an enemy of the federal govern
ment, or rather of that department which
exercises control over the liquor traffic. He
has been taught for generations by the To-
cal public speakers ut his county seat and
on the hustings in his immediate neighbor-
hood that the government has no right to
enact any law that affects the personal lib
erty Of the citizen in the matter of what he
shall eat or drink. All such laws are
"sumptuary," "paternal." and therefore
Unconstitutional" The candidates do not
hesitate to invade his domain and dis
tribute his white liquor" while to secure
his influence he impresses upon him and
his %neighbors the injustice Of taxing the
product Of his corn while exempting the
product of his neighbors' wheat.
The revenue officers are his natural ene-
mics because they are the representatives OF
the law which he considers oppressive.

personally acquainted with them and finds
them to be kind hearted and considerable IN

A5aitinq a Nuisance.

At town of Hungary, the ladies' not
long ago adopted the habit of taking
to the theatre huge plush bags of long
colors. in which they carried all their
miscellaneous belongings, as opera
glasses. gloves, handkerchiefs, SMELL
ing-bottles, sweetmeats, etc. These
bags they were accustomed to hang
over the ledge of the dress circle, with
a picturesque and not wholly pleasing
effect. The fashion spread among the
lower classes, and soon every servant
girl in the street appeared, with plush
bag in her hand. Nobody carries them
now. A short time ago the ofh.
GERS of the regiment quartered IN the
town for several successive nights
bought up all the front seats IN the
dress circle and turned up at the per-
formance carrying on their arms an
ordinary forage bag, somewhat less
than the usual size, which they hung
over the ledge in imitation Of the
ladies. The joke created no little
amusement, and roars oflaughter shook
the house when the officers produced
from their bags opera glasses, mono
cles. sweets, handkerchiefs, and here
and there a tobacco pouch or snuff
box. Since then the plush bags have
disappeared from the horizon. New

Egyptian locks Of remote antiquity,
many germs are found Of the essential
features of good modern locks. In
China, where few things change,
well-defned Roman style OF paddock Is
to this day in almost universal use,
but whether the Chinese copied the
Romans, or the notion by some means

are questions it would puzzle Beck
man to determine. The simple device
of having the hollow stem or pipe of n
key open at each end, so that dirt or
other obstruction could be pushed
through, is as old as the Roman En-.
pire. Nevertheless, hardly year
passes without some enthusiastic in
ventor rediscovering it and offering to
part with his idea for large money
consideration. Generally speaking, it

val period that We begin to find keys
