TIE LORD SKIPS.
ESCAPES FROM THE
GRESS LUMBER CAMP.

Is Soon Captured His Plan Miscarried and
He Was Picked Up in a Baudy House.
"Me Lud'' Beresford, Georgia's patri-
clan convict and book writer, escaped
from Gress convict camp Tuesday night
last and was recaptured few hours
later.
Beresford is, above all things, smooth,
and his insinuating, pleasing smooth
ness has always secured the best for him
in whatever situation he has ever been
placed. In the convict camp it won the
keepers and caused special privileges to
be granted him in the way of allowing
him immunity from stripes.
Beresford has always been allowed
privileges at the camp, but since the ep,
isode which led to the dismissal Of
Keeper Crabb and the finding of Lessee
Gress, these special liberties have been
somewhat abri dyed.
1t seems that he was still allowed to
cover his convict shirt with citizens
coat, however, and allowed to work
about the railroad station without a
guard. Tuesday night last he got aboard
the Savannah, Americas and Montgom-
cry train and disappeared. He was soon
missed from the camp and the authori-
ties were not long in learning that he
had boarded the train for Americas.
kilograms were sent to sheriffs of all the
nelghboring counties.
In Americus and at the camps it was
believed that Beresford had not gotten
far away. 1t was believed that he was
hidden somewhere in Americus, and the
police of that city we're kept busy look
ing for the aristocratic convict. They
searched everywheret throughout the city
and finally located Beresford in house
in the suburbs of the city about o'clock
the next afternoon The lord was very
much surprised and shocked at the intru-
sion of the officers, but was taken in
charge and conveyed to police headquar-
tiers.
He says that the bouncing of Captain
Crabb preyed upon his mind and made
the camp so uncomfortable for him that
be concluded to leave. Accordingly he
stepped on the train and went to Ameri-
Gus.
From that point it vas intended to
board train for the far south, but as no
train leaves at night he was forced to go
into hiding there.

A BALL OF GOLD.
THE RICH FIND OF A GEORGIA
NEGRO.
A BAH of Gold Valued at 50, 900 Found in a
Crawford County FieId--Where
Did 1t Come From?

A BAH of Gold Valued at So 900 Found in a
Crawford County FieId--Where
Did 1t Come From?
Pave Bolton, a cplored man of Craw-
ford county, was in Macon recently
and proudly exhibited ball OF gold
about two-thirds the size of regulation
baseball and weighing about six pounds
or 1920 pennyweights.
Bolton found this ball last week while
blowing in new ground, and when he
first saw it thought it was an old grape
sh t. When he picked it up, however,
he noticed that it seemed unusually
heavy, but never thought Of its being
gold. When his days work was done
he took the ball, which was black and
almost the color of old iron or copper, to
the house, and after supper began
scraping the dirt from it. simply out of
curiosity.
After Bolton had scraped knife ovev
the ball few times he saw that it was
not iron, but much softer and brighter
Still notthinking of gold, he finally laid
it aside with the determination of show
ing it to some of his white friends next
day and ask their opinion about 1t.
The next day he forgot about the ball,
and it was not until last Saturday that
he thought of taking it to somebody who
could tell him about it. The first man
he showed it to readily pronounced it
gold. and this so elated Bolton that he
took it to jeweler for his opinion. The
jeveler pronounced it pure, solid gold,
and estimated its value at from 81 500 to
$4,000.
For what purpose the ball was made,
those who have seen it are at loss to
understand, as it is barely probable that
anybody or any country would manufac-
ture such precious grapeshot. Chased
on the ball are some kind of hieroglyph-
les that are hardly visible, which makes
the ball have the appearance of having
been used for some purpose be-
fore being lost or buried. One side of
the ball appears to have come in violent
contact with some hard substance, as it
is partially fattened.
The field where the ball was found is
full of pine trees of large size, which
conveys the impression that it was never
before cultivated, or if it was it was
many years ago. The ball was, as near
as Bolton can estimate, about six inches
beneath the surface of the ground and
must have been there number of years.
Bolton is without doubt the happiest
negro in Crawford county. He says he
will convert his ball into cash and take
a long needed rest.

Alarming Addictions to Inebriety Among
British Maids and Matrons.

Alarming AuuIctlOns TO IneDriety Among
/ British Maids and Matrons.
From the New York Sun.
''Drunk as duchess is a popular
phrase in the mouth of the English peo-
pie just now, and it is a phrase power
fully suggestive of a striking and shock
| ing condition of affairs in English society,
coming, as all such popular by-words do,
| from apt appreciation of prominent feat
ures of the life and affairs of to-dAy.
Drinking among women in the higher
and highest social ranks of English
society is developing into national
scandal, says Lady Henry Somerset. And
a public meeting was held here recently,
presided over by this lady, at which
seine remarkable statements were made
of the prevalence of drunkenness among
women in high life.
But drinking is not an attribute mere
ly of women in high life. What is more
serious, and which touches the life of the
whole nation, is the prevalence and in
crease of drunkenness among women of
all classes throughout the kingdom.
ga national shame" is how the London
Daily News characterizes the startling
revelations that have been made recently
through public meetings, official re-
ports, and a general investigation and
open discussion concerning the great
evil. 1t was made subject of special
inquiry by a committee of parliament
this year, and startling testimony as to
the prevalence of the vice among women
was given by magistrates, coroners, Off
GERS of public institutions, and medical
men of high standing, the latter headed
by no less man than the late Sir An
drew Clark, Gladstone's old physician.
Of an average of $4,000 women com
mitted to prison annually in the United
Kingdom in the past few years 80 per
sent. were sent there for drunkenness, or
for offenses arising from or allied to
drunkenness. The testimony Of the po-
lice courts is that the vice is prevalent
among all classes in the East End of Lon
don. Not alone women of disreputable
class come before the magistrates charg-
ed with drunkenness, ut wives of re-
spectacle workingmen and young women
earning their Irving, and otherwise con-
Quoting themselves in respectable way.
All ages, as we'll as all classes, are vic
Tins of the vice. There are many rec
ords of women drunkards of 80 and IS
years of age, and many of those but Is
to 10 years old. Five unmarried girls II
years old were charged with drunken
ness in one court in single day, and
girls of tender years are found in the
streets in the early morning, helpless
from a nights debauch. In 1891 there
were in London some 5000 convictions
of women for drunkenness. Last year
the number of such convictions was in
creased by over 500, and there were in
addition 9,373 arrests of women on the
charge of having been drunk and disor-
