There were no deeds which they performed
which he found objectionable,
And all the aims which they pursued he said
he'd found pursuable,
And oil the feats which they had dono he
found were quickly doable.
For any act of bravery he said he was reli-
able,
And all achievements lie would try, he prom

And any mountain he would climb If its as-
cent was possible,
And any ocean he would cross that any man
found crossabe.
For killing grizzly bears and such he said he
was invinciblc.
They could not make him dodge or vince. bo-
cause he wasn't winceeble.
He'd Killed with perfect ease he said, all
brutes and beasts discoverable.
One slash from his almighty hand and thov
were irrecoverable.
His strength was most incffable, was wondrous
and inscrutabe.
For killing sharks and elephants peculiarly
twas suitable.
He'd made the roaring catamount no longer
recognizable
And pulverized the ramping bull and found
him pulveriZablc.
In savage islands of the sea he'd fought the

He'd killed and tanned fierce dragons wild and
found them very tamable.

WHAT THE DETECTIVES SAY.
Sheriff Ellis of Wayne County Shown
Up in Rather Bad Light.

Sheriff Ellis of Wayne county created
something of a sensation at the police
barracks yesterday morning by engaging
in an alteration with Detectives Bos-
sell and Kavanaugh. The sheriff. came to
Savannah Tuesday night He Informed a
party with whom he became on friendly
terms that there was a man in his county
for whom there was a reward of $500 Of
fered by the governor, but as he was the
sheriff of the county II would do him no
good to arrest the man, as he could not
collect the reward.
The sheriff wanted to get one of the
Savannah detectives to make the arrest,
divide the reward He was Recommended
to Detectives Bossell and Kavanaugh, but
expressed some uncomplimentary opin-
ions of those officers. He said that Kav-
anaugh had done him a mean trick once;
that he was arrested and looked up here,
and that Kavanaugh refused to get him a
bondsman.
Ellis called at the barracks yesterday
morning and meeting the detectives,
wordy alteration ensued. The detectives
claim that Ellis was under the influence
of liquor In order to avoid a difficulty
with him they left the ROOM. Ellis after
ward reported that the difficulty between
him and the detectives was because the
latter knew where there was a. man hiding
in Savannah whom he wanted and for
whom there was a reward Of soc, but
that they would not assist him in making
the arrest. Detective Kavanaugh said
that il would certainly be very childish
on his part and Detective Bossells to
shield a man from whose arrest they
would get $500.

A Convict Shows Up at the Barracks
With Blood Pouring from Wounds.

A Convict Shows Up at the Barracks
With Blood Pouring from Wounds.
a case of inhuman treatment at con-
Wet camp No. came to light at the police
barracks yesterday which demands in
vestigation. A young negro named Pleas
ant Brisbane was arrested in the market
basement Oct. 80 by Detectives Bosseh
and Kavanaugh and locked up on the
charge of Vagrancy. Recorder Wilson
sentenced him to pay fine of 50 or spend
thirty days on the gang for sleeping in
the market basement.
Brisbane was sent out to the gang on
Oct. 81. He wrote his mother in Augusta
and asked her to send the money to pay
his fine to Detective Bossel This the
mother did and also sent d notice to the
effect that she had paid her sons fare
back to Augusta by steamboat As soon
as Recorder Wilson was notified that
Brisbane's fine had been paid he ordered
his release from the gang.
Brisbane was released yesterday morn
ing and came to the police barracks to
get his ticket on the boat from Detective
Bossell. He walked in the police office
and took a seat. While he was sitting
there waiting for the detective an officer
ordered him to move his seat. When he
did so it was noticed that the chair in
which he had been seated was bloody.
bttOIueI w liSOts VINO Udu JUST come
in from the court ROOM had his attention
called to the matter and being informed
that Brisbane was just released from the
chain gang ordered Detective KaVanaugh
to examine him. When this was done,
one-half of the lower part of his back
on the left side was found TO be beaten
almost to a jelly His clothing was
bloody and the condition of his wounds
was such that his clothing adhered to the
flesh in places. Brisbane said that he
had been beaten four times since he had
been at the convict camp, and judging
from the appearance of his wounds the
guard who did the whipping must have
taken particular care to whip him in the
same place each time. The negro was
so badly beaten that he could neith& sit
nor stand without pain.
Recorder Wilson said that he would
see that the matter is investigated. As
Brisbane had no money aud llowhsre to
go the recorder told him he could come
back to the barracks for lodging last
night and that he would have his fine
RENTED.

DIED IN NEW ORLEANS.
Sad Death OF Mr.. C. NJ. Bessellieu OF
This City.

Information was received here yesterday
of the death in New Orleans of Mr.. c. NJ.
Bessellieu of this city. Mr.. Bessellieu
left Savannah Oct. 16. representing the
Diamond Dust Soap Company. He had
letters and credentials from the company
and from H. T, Moore 6, Co. He started
south, going first to Montgomery, Ala, his
ultimate destination being New Orleans.
The company heard nothing from him
for some time, and finally wrote to Mont
gomery. 1t was learned there that he had
gone to New Orleans. Still hearing moth
ing from him his family became alarmed
and inquiries were sent to New Orleans,
and in various directions. A letter was
received yesterday from Mr.. r. G.. Guerard,
formerly OF this city, who Is now in BUSH
ness in New Orleans, stating that the New
Orleans papers reported that Mr.. Bessel-
lieu was taken suddenly i'll in his board
ing house there about three weeks ago
and had been removed to
hospital where he died shortly af-
ter. Mira Guerard wrote that
his own illness had prevented his making
personal inquiry. Mr.. Bessellieu's family
at once telegraphed the authorities at
New Orleans relative to his death, but no
reply was received last night Mr.. Bessel-
lieus death is peculiarly sad. He was a
man past middle age and not physically
strong. His family is deeply distressed
over his unhappy death and his be-
reaVed widow and daughters have the deep
sympathy of many friends.
