Walter NJ. Castle and wife, of San
Francisco, have been arrested in London
I IF stealing quantity of furs from diff
ferent dealers in that city. They were
given hearing few days ago and were
remanded to jail for week, bail being
fixed at $4,000. Now look out for

3Bryan has torn things up in Michigan
and Minnesota, and the republicans ere
now on the run In those states. Even
the New York World admits it. The
democratic nominee is going through the
country reasoning with the people and
appealing to their patriotism, while the
republican plan of campaigning is to buy
the presidency for Mckinley.
The women are arming themselves in
Cuba and fighting Spaniards. A mount
ed band headed by Senorita Perez dash
ed into town garrisoned by 200 Span
iards and killed s; three of the women
were shot. Her band is sworn not to
spare a Spaniard.

Humor in the Campaign.

The state committee of the national
democratic party Of Georgia gives notice
through the columns of the Atlanta Jour
nal that at the next meeting of the gen
eral assembly of the state bill will be
introduced entitled au act to enlarge
the state of Georgia to the size of the
state of Texas, by providing for the
change by statue of the present estab-
lishel ia 0les of long and square meas
ures, making 800 acres instead of $40
acres to the square mile, and $50 yards
instead Of 1,760 yards a legal mile. By
this means, it is argued, the state of
Georgia will at once become as big as
Texas, in the matter of square acres and
square miles, and every land owner will
Immediately find himself possessed of
twice as much land as he owned before.
Evidently the Palmer-Buckner party IS
disposed to inject little humor into the
campaign.

1t is surprising to many that football

1t is surprising to many that football
players and other athletes regard a sprain
or bruise of so little consequence. One
reason of this is, they know how to treat
such injuries so as to recover from them
in few days, while others would be
laid up for two or three weeks, if not
longer, Writing from Central State Nor

A Queer story From lowe.

A queer story of the spread of an ir-
fictitious disease comes from Webster
City, Ia. 1t is claimed that rabbits have
spread diptheria throughout the county,
and to the towns of BOWS, Iowa Falls,
Jewell Junction and Iden. Some twelve
or fifteen deaths have been reported. For
a number of years diptheria has annu.
ally broken out in the immediate vicini-
ty of church which is used as school
building. Rabbits have been hibernat-
ing in the building for long time. Ply
siciaps have made an investigation and
reached the conclusion that the rabbits
propagat ID and distributed the germs
of the disease. The church will be IL n
ed. This is an instance in which it
would appear that the timid rabbits were
getting even with the human species for
taking their family for vivisection and
psychological experiments.

FELTON, FOR MCKINLEY.

A Boom Exploded in Georgia Political
Circles.
A press ditpatch from Atlanta says:
A bombshell was exploded in political
circles here today by the making public
of letter from DR.. W. Il. FELTON,, popu-
list nominee for electOr for the state at
large withdrawing his support to Nc
Kinley.
DR.. FELTON, was at one time memb r
of congress from the seventh district
and has ng been conspicuous in Geor-
gia politics.
His course is constructed by many as
indicating that there will be general de-
lection to Mckinley from the populist
ranks in Georgia on account of the treat
ment of the populist proposition for fu-
sion at the hands of the democratic
state committee.

Old stYffs Highwaymen.

The term "garroters" was employed to
designate thieves who half strange their
victims in dark streets and lanes in the
suburbs of London and other large towns
some 30 or 40 years ago. The word is de-
rived from the carrot, Spanish instru-
ment used for strangling criminals.
