in retiring to his seat, Mr.. Dismuke was
tairjv ouiyering with rage. Leapine
f~om his chair he made a rush for Il e
raaro and before the surprised spec ia
toIs could realize what was going on
abopttbem had felled him to the floor
wjtha hickory stick.
Ina moment the greatest excitement
prevailed at that very unusual occur
tpnce. while the sheriff and court officers
rushed to the negro S rescue.
While the enraged father was strug-
gIinr with the officers who were trying
to arrest him and thus put stop to the
fohting, John Williams, the father Of
the bow Cicero, struck Dismuke terrible
blow over the head with stick.
This. of course, added to the cOnfus-
ion. and for a while it looked as if gen
erai fight would take place. Dismuke
was almost beside himself with rage,
and his pnger was no wise lessened when
Judge Fish ordered him to Jail for ten
DAYS for contempt of court.
As the first order did not appear to
have the desired effect the court imposed
the full sentence of twenty days, and
Mr. Djsmuke vas at once removed from

county Jail. Quiet at last being restored

After adjournment in the afternoon a

ever and at last accounts Mr.. Dismuke
was securely confined in Jail, where he
will doubtless serve out his sentence of
twenty days.
The scene was a most TN ,sua one and
was the all-absorbing topic of converse

Colonel Peek Organizing the Third Party
for Another Campaign.
From the Columbus Enquirer-Sun
Among the distinguished visitors in
the city a few nights ago was DR.. W. l..
Peek, of Rockdale.
The Enouirer-Sun is informed by one
who is well-iniormed that DR.. Peek's
presence in this section of the state was
significant 1t was tangible evidence
that the Third party in this state is tax
ing on new activity and the work OF
thorough reorganization in all the coun-
ties has begun. DR.. Peek has taken the
road and is making the rounds of the old
Third party neighbOrhOOds, with the
purpose of again marshaling the disaf-
fected elements. That is SAL to have
been his business in West Georgia last
week 1t is understood to be undOubt'
edly true that the Third party is prepar
ing to make desperate effort in the next
GubernatOrial election. 1t is on the card
now that Tom Watson will be the candi-
date for Governor, and the plans for an
aggressive campaign are now being ar
ranged. Watson is keen for this contest
and the informant of the Enquirer-Sun,
who knows him well credits him with the
ability to raise more of the traditional
''h-ll in Geor, la than any other man
in the state.
Prominent Democrats in the state are
already sounding forth warning to the
party of the danger to be apprehended
from this movement. The Enquirer-Sun
believes that the Georgia Democracy
will be ready for it, bat we do not be-
lieye that it will be even so formidable
Loot Go No baliavn that the
Democratic administration will impress
the people with it's purpose and ability to
bring about The reforms which the coun-
try needs, and that it will grow in the
confidence of the people. Many farmers
in Georgia were deluded last year by the.
appeals and promises Of Populist dema-
gogues, but they will not be deceived
again.

BUT GOT A BLOW IN THE FACE IN
STEAD.
The Experience of Two Young Ladies WIFI
Negro Woman While Out Walk
ing Friday Afternoon.

The Experience of Two Young Ladies with
Negro Woman while out Walk
ing Friday Afternoon.
Late Friday afternoon, while two of
Dawsons well-known and popular young
ladies were out walking, they had an
experience that caused much indignation
when the occurrence became known.
While going up Fourth Avenue they
met a aegro woman. Instead of the wo
man giving the sidewalk she kept a
straight course and came i'll direct con-
tact with one of the young ladies. When
asked to give an explanation of her con-
duct the woman replied that she was "a
undergraduate of the Atlanta school and
that her character was as good as
tha5 of any white woman in town" The
words were no sooner uttered than one
of the plucky young ladies landed a
stunning blow with her hand directly in
the face of the ir8pudent negress. At
this juncture Mr.. H. T. Palmer was seen
coming up the street and the woman
walked around the young ladies and de-
parted.
When the occurrence became known
next morning there was much indigna-
ton among the people of the city and
the result was that the woman's husband
moved her to Cuthbert that day, from
whence she came short time ago.
The bravery displayed by the young la
dies is universally praised and they have
be generally cOngra tulated.
viii Gary, husband Of the woman, is
the respectful and polite barber, and is
well thought of by the people here.

Wonders of Geometrical Progression.

The story of Sysla and the king is usu-
ally told as a good illustration of geo
metrical progression. Sysla, so the story
goes, was the inventor of the game of
chess. The king was so delighted with
the diversion that he promised to grant
any request the inventor might make.
Sysla, who must have been a mathema-
tician as well as a mechanical genius,
only asked that the generous king would
put one grain Of wheat on the first
square Of the board and double the
amount upon each successive square up
to and including the SKI -fourth. Lucas
de Burgo says that there was not enough
wheat III the kingdom to pay the crafty
inventor, which was 1S,446, IA .073, 709.-
551 ,6l5 grains. According to a curious
medley Of figures published il the Louis
vile Courier-J ournal, there are S32, 900
grains in bushel Of wheat. How many
bushels did the modest inventor ask for?
The number of bushels as given in the
book "Curiosities IF the Game and PLAY
Of Chess" fall more than one-third short
Of the actual number.-St. Louis Re
