Augusta Herald: Judge Lawson having

not be candidate for denomination, some

advantage of the fact to attempt to shut
him out of the race by calling that con-

simply disregard this pitiful little bunco
game, but thus we see how the silver
conspirators are breeding dissension in
the ranks and undermining the fabric of
democracy for their own selfish ends.

STABBED HIS TEACHER.
Bears in the OkeefnOkee Swamp
killing Many Cattle.

Valdosta, Ca, April 15.-An unruly youth
named Willie Davis, who lives in the ely
atteville district, stabbed Prof. A. w.
Stroller, the teacher at the school there
on yesterday and inflicted two very serious
wounds. From the report brought here, it
is learned that the lad was shooting grains
of corn across the school room when the
professor ordered him to desist The lad
retorted with sharp reply and the teach
er threatened to chaStize him for his inn
pudence. The boy accepted the challenge
with another smart rejoinder, when the
professor sent out for a switch and began
to use 1t upon the youngster. He struck
the boy once, when the youth opened his
knife and made for the teacher. Prof
Stroller was cut in the breast and back
both wounds being very painful, but neith-
er of them regarded as dangerous. The
professor was brought to the city where
his wounds were dressed and where he re-
mains under a physicians care. He will
probably be able to resume his duties in a
few days. The lad who did the cutting is
said to be only IA or 10 years old.
Reports from the Okeefinokee swamp say
that the bears are killing more large cat
tie than was ever known before. The gen.
eral belief that the bears had been thinned
out there by hunters is said to be untrue
On the contrary, 1t is claimed that there
are more bears there now than have ever
been seen there before and they are larger
size. 1t is said that they are increasing in
number great deal faster than they are
being killed.

THE HARRIS WILL CASE.
Belief That Sound Money is Gaining
Ground in Georgia.

Athens, Ga, April 15.-The trial of the
Harris will case. involving sos, 900. will
come off on April 2S. Both sides will an
nounce ready then. This case will attract
great interest. Judge Harris, whose last
will is to be attacked by his relatives, was
for thirty years president of the Southern
Mutual Insurance Company, and one of
the most prominent Methodists in the
south. One of the grounds of contest will
be that he had a mania for giving away
his money to religious and educational
institutions. AS matter of fact he gave
the money that went to the building of
the first Protestant church in China He
also established Young Harris Institute
in Towns county, where over 400 noun
tain children get their education every
year. The beneficiaries of the will intend
showing that Judge Harris was of sound
mind and that he gave away to his rela-
tives and friends more than he did to COL
leges or religious societies.
Secretary Smith, before he left here for
Washington, said that the cause of sound
money is gaining ground every day in
