NEWS OF THE STATE.

Deputy Sheriff VIM. Cowan of Grant
county, writes to a friend in Baker
City that the officers have located Jack
Hamlet, the murderer of Ben Gammie,
between Caleb and Mitchell, Giant
county, and that he will either starve to
death or be compelled to give up. The
mnrderer's horse has been taken from
him and he has no means of escape.
The meanest man on record has been
discovered in Douglas county, near
Stockton. He sold his son-in-law half a
COW and then refused to divide the
milk, maintaining that he sold only the
front half. The son-in-law was re-
quired to provide the food the COW con-
sumed and carry water three times a
day. Recently the COW hooked the old
man and now he talks of suing the
owner of the front half.
A party of Jacksonville bellies arrayed
themselves in masculine attire and went
quietly out to view the city by lamp
light, but their awkward gait soon gave
their cute ruse away, and they fled pre-
cipitately to their homes. The ques-
tionable comment that the circumstance
has occasioned since, will probably con-
vince the young ladies that it will be
best not to outrage the proprieties by
such thoughtlessness again.

An Old Colonial Horror.

At Freehold, J., negro was once
executed in manner that would have
made the torturers of the middle ages
blush with envy. An old document in
the clerks Office at that place tells the
tale: s'* Therefore the court
doth judge that thou, the said Caesar.
shall return to the place from whence
thou camest, and from thence to the
place of execution, where thy right
hand shall be cut off and burned be-
fore thy eyes. Then thou shalt be
hanged by the neck till thou art dead,
dead, dead; then thy body shall be cut
down and burned to ashes in fire
kindled for that purpose, and may the
Lord have mercy on thy soul.''

To Business Men.

The fact that The WEEKLY GAZETTE
has Q lar er circu alton than any paper
published in huntsville excepting the
Mercury only should indicate its value
as an advertising medium to the mer
chants of Huntsville. Another fact in
favor Of the Gazette is that it circulates
most largely among the colored popula-
tion, which comprises one-haif the popul
alton of Huntsville and Madison county
Its weekly visit to the homes OF these
people, who are .trictly home buyers,
gives it's advertising columns value
among the pushing class no. obtained by
any other paper published in the city.

this is not credited by any of the Dem
ocratic political leaders. Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster General Maxwell was
removed by Mr.. Hill, when governor,
from the office of insurance superinten-
dent, and much bad feeling between
the two men resulted from this episode
Mr.. Maxwell was active in the May

well has stated that he never scrached
a Democratic ticket, and he did not pro-
pose to do it this time. With the ex-
ception of Mr. Curtis, all the anti-snap-

Editor Gazette:
Please allow me to state in your
valuable sheet that our last associa>
ton of Primitive Baptists convened
at Persimmon Grove Church, Sept.
is, 1894, with an addition of two
new churches. Previous to this the
Association embraced twenty seven
churches. with a membership exceed
ing four thousand, in the Indian
Creek. OF these, about two-thirds
are believed available members.
There have been some complaint for
several years in this section, of de-
barring Baptists of many of the
privileges epi yed IN the schools,
and of some religious instructions
having been given Bapiist's chill
dren indirectly, thought by the Bap-
lists to benimical to their cause. even
in some Of the public or State
schools. Many of the complaints
might have been uncalled for, yet it
is the case that such complaints ex-
ist. All the grounds and property
on which said churches are located,
belongs to the individual church,
free Of any debt whatever. The
Baptists are appealed to, to build,
ea.h church, a school house on its
ground, in which it will be your
privilege to see and know what is
taught, a, d who teachers it. We
are completing school building
here in the city, in which we expect
to begin High School, as mention.

their Church grounds, there will be

as they have thought they had a
right to make.

Old Shady Dead.

Passed from earth at Grand Forks,
North Dakota, Sept %. 1894, "Old
Shady" whose right name was
Blakely Duncan, in the S5th year OF
his age, To the uninformed reader
as to who "Old Shady" was and the
part he took in the great war Of the
rebellion. the announcement of his
death may not be Of interest, but to
the old soldiers of Shermans army
who tave been charmed by the
good old plantation songs "Old
Shady used to sing, his death will
be lamented. He was a slave on a
Louisiana cotton plantation when
Grants army began lis operations in
the Mississippi valley. At the first
opportunity he joined the federal
army and became the body servant
Of General Sherman. After the fall
of Vicksburg when General Sher-
man was making trip up the Mis-
sissippi river by steamer his faithful
old servant composed and sang for
the first time his fayorlte song "Old
Shady" which is now sung by thous :,
sands of old soldiers around as many
camp fires and at re unions every
where. After the war "Old Shady
settled in the Northwest, and while
General Sherman was Lieutenant
General Of the army he went out OF
the way several hundred miles to
visit his old body servant at Grand
Forks. When General Sherman
died ''Old Shady" went all the way
to New York and accompanied. the
Generals body from there to St
Louis where he saw his beloved
commander laid 10 rest in Calvary
cemetery. The writer met this
grand old colo red patriot for the last
time at the National Republican
Convention at Minneapolis two
years ago last June at the soldiers
headquarters, and listened TO him
sing the soul stirring song "Old
Shady" which we had heard him
sing thirty years before in the
swamps of Mississippi and around
the camp fires Of the boys in blue
When we wrote our little book on
the outrages of the south we named it
"Old Shady in honor Of this faithful
old friend of our beloved Sherman
We believe as the poet has said OF
his companion in song" "Uncle Ned
he has gone where the good niggers
go. May the argtls in that better
land beckon him to come, and in the
chorus of his So G won't they smile
when they see Old Shady, he's a
comm, he's a coming, hail mighty
day." Peace to the ashes of this
grand, loyal Old col red soldier and
faithful servant.

yond doubt good one.

popular attention Of horsemen and closed with
no fewer than eighty entries The season. Of
1894 will be memorable one for two-year-
olds. as almost every stake offered for that age
by any OF the racing associations has filled be-
yond expectations. The Spring and June
stakes OF the Coney Island Jockey Club have
each received seventy-six entries; while the
