BOUND AND DROWNED.
Summary Treatment of an Immoral Woman in
 Georgia-Her Sister is Missing Also'

Savannah, Ga., July 10-A Morning News special from Dublin, Ga, says: A few weeks ago Carrie and Ellen Pad gett, sisters, strolled into the neighbor- hood of Pullen's bridge, on the Ohoopee river. in Johnson county. Their conduct was such as to cause moral men and wo- men to become disgusted, and they were asked to leave. They failed to observe the warning. Yesterday morning a par ty of fishermen. while seining in the shal- low part of the river, cast their seine for the second time.
 As the net was very heavy as they were drawing it out of the water, the fishermen thought that it was sure to contain al large quantity of fish, but they were shocked on hauling 1t to the bank to find in 1t the decomposed body of wo- man. She was recognized IS Carrie Pad lgett. The men found her hands and feet bound securely by strong ropes, and at tached to the body was a huge rock. The hands were tied behind the body.
 The supposition is that several women residing in the neighborhood, assisted by some men, carried the girl to the riv- CT and pushed her in.
 Ellen the drowned girls sister, Is also missing, and it Is thought she suffered the same fate. No signs of violence is shown on the body The affair is shroud- ed in mystery. The officials will at once take steps to fix the crime on the guilty parties.
 I is rumored tonight that the main cause for the killing was the fact that she had parted a husband and wife

on the highest box as if it were only a
