A GOOD CAPTURE.
George King, Negro Burglar, Caught by One

George King, Negro Burglar, Caught by One
 of Bessemers Finest
 George King, a copper-colored negro, claiming Columbus, Ga., as his home, was captured at g o'clock last night on a Bessemer and Birmingham dummy headed for Birmingham, by Officer F. M. Renfroe, one of Bessemer's fly cops.
 King and another negro had made a number of raids on private and busi- ness houses in and around Bessemer, so it is said, and were very much wanted by the Marvel City authorities. King s pal was already behind the bars and a sharp lookout for him was being had. Officer Renfroe spotted King and an- other negro, wanted in Bessemer for es- caping the chain gang, almost at the same moment, and promptly adorned their wrists with steel bracelets. The twain were taken back to Bessemer on the II o'clock dummy last night.
 Kings latest job with his pal was the breaking into Roddens store at Besse- mer Monday night from which they bor- rowed, so to speak, large amount of merchandise. The goods were recovered from a negro bagnio in Bessemer and the clue to their identity obtained at the same time. It is safe to say they will do time

waited. but the large cloth air ship re- fused to jump heavenward at the bidding of the master hand. and the immense crowd, not knowing the cause of failure, went away sore and disgusted.
 An Age-Herald reporter was on the grounds and noting the failure of the air ship to bear it's daring master up- ward toward the twinklng stars. made an investigation and found good and sui ficient reasons therefor
 MT. Warrington was greatly put out at the failure to carry out his promise to the people, but stated that a number of inexperienced boys were helping him to inflate the air ship and in so doing had torn the bag in several places and be- sides failed to carry out his instructions, thus causing the failure to properly in fate the bag, and thereby preventing the ascension.
 MT. Warrington will this morning se- cure experienced help and this afternoon, without fail, will make a skyward trip and earthward jump.
 As announced elsewhere in these col umns, ample train facility will be pro- vided for taking people to and bringing shem back from the lake.
 The hour of ascension will be 5 o'clock.

An Express Clerk Guarded to Prevent Him
 From Shielding.
 New Orleans, Aug. 27-A Chattanooga, Tenn, special to the Daily States says: Perrin W. Barton a popular Southern Ex- press clerk, is being guarded by officers at his room in the Tschopik hotel. vio- lently insane, as a result of unrequitted love-
 He has been in the city two years and was a popular favorite in society. He seemed to be afflicted with an unusual susceptibleness and has proposed to a number of young ladies without success. A few weeks ago he bought a diamond ring paying s100 for it, and offered it to Miss Lillie Belle Dodge as token of love, asking her to marry him. She took the offer as an insult, and called her mother who elected the young man from the house. Yesterday he rushed from his room in his night dress, threatening to kill himself. He is violently insane and it is feared that he will suicide. Barton was generally the center of attraction at all social functions he attended, and has hosts of friends throughout this sec ton. His brother will arrive tomorrow from Lexington, Va. and will take the unfortunate to the Virginia state asylum for treatment.

MURDER AT WARRIOR.
A Negro Shot and His Body Laid Beside u
 Railroad Track.

A Negro Shot and His Body Laid Beside the
 Railroad Track.
 Warrior, Aug. 27.-(Special1-Thed dead body of George White, colored, was found lying beside the railroad track at the coal chutes, in the north part of town, last night about 9 o'clock by the crew of a southbound freight train. On inves- tigation this morning by the authori- ties it is found that the man was not killed by a train, as was at first sup posed but was murdered, as a bullet hole was found entirely through his head.
 The most plausible theory is that he was murdered by two companions who were seen with him yesterday and last night. White was employed by the Coal dale Brick and Tile company at Coal dale, one and a half miles from here He was seen to leave Coaldale yesterday afternoon in company with two other colored men, and they were afterwards seen here, and when last heard of they were going up the railroad track in the di- rection of the place where Whites body was found. The report of a gun or pistol was heard in that direction about $ o'clock last night
 The three men claimed to live in De- catur, and said they were going home The fact that Whites two companions have not been seen or heard from since before the murder, and also the fact that the dead mans bundle of clothing is missing are thought to be good evidence that they are responsible for the death of White.
 The coroner has not yet arrived, but will be here on the first train.

HE NOW BELIEVES.
While Ridiculing Religion Man Loses His
 Power of Speech.

IOW6f Ol DpeeCu
 Savannah Ga., Aug. 27.-A special to the Morning News from Athens, Ga., tells of a remarkable incident that oc- cured at big Methodist revival which has been in progress for the last week at High Shoals, fourteen miles from that place. William Hogue Wood, living at High Shoals. was once a Methodist, but had turned unbeliever. He would at- tend the meetings. go to the church, but. soon coming out. would get a crowd around him and riducule the whole pro- ceedngS.
 Sunday afternoon, while loudly railing out against religion, etc., and while in the midst of a sentence, he suddenly stopped and has not spoken since. Every thing possible has been done to restore his speech, but to no avail. The man is sound and hearty in every other respect. He went to the church yesterday and was seen by the minister to be shaking all over He took paper and pencil and wrote few lines and handed the note to the pastor, who read it to the meeting. It was: "I am doomed to he'll I now be- leve there is a hell. Pray for me-"
 The affair has caused an immense sen- sation. He is still dumb.

 Say of His Company

Say ot his Company
 MT. J. w. Stillwell manager of the Gulf Transit company of Pensacola, Fla, was in the city last night on business connected with his company. He was seen at the Morris hotel by an Age Herald reporter, to whom he stated that the prospects for a largely increased business the coming fall and winter were very bright. He said his company ex- pected to export 5000 or 10000 tons of coal next month and equally as much or more during the month of October. The greater portion of the coal they export goes to Galveston, though they have good customers in Havana and other places to the south.

 MT. Stillwell said his company had re- gently put on line of steamer to Liver pool, England, and they expected to do good general export business the com ing season He said they would make an effort to capture good portion of the cotton shipments as well as iron and coal
 The Gulf Transit company has recently made three shipments of Birmingham pig iron to England, and they expect to make other shipments soon.

DIED.-At 4:30 o'clock yesterday after noon, Mrs. Martha Hopkins, wife of Mr. r. l.. Hopkins, an efficient and trusted employe of the Western Union telegraph office in this city, aged 29 years.
 The death of Mrs. Hopkins is peculiarly sad in view of the fact that a baby boy is thereby made motherless. Young, and of a sweet, sunny temper, her parting from husband and child. father and mother, was very pathetic. The remains will be taken to Bangor today and there inferred in the family burial plot.
