HOW THE CARVING is DONE.
The New Public Building to Have
Some Handsome and Elaborate

Designs.
The work on the public building is pro-
crossing favorably. In spite Of the sew
eral delays to which the contractors have
been subjected, such as the slow receipts
Of stone and the fact that many Of the
blocks are too large Mr.. Bradt has been
pushing 1t forward rapidly, with the re-
suit that half or a little more than half
of the first story is now in shape 1t is
not believed there will be any further de-
lays from any cause, at least, so far as
can be seen at the present time.
Just now the marble window frames OF
the first story all around the building are
being put in place, and in a few days the
stone VIII rise above them. The marble
quarry sends many Of the stones here too
large to be used and the consequence is
three stone cutters are kept busy trim
ming the stone down to the proper size.
The most interesting process around the
works. however, is the stone carving,
which Is being done under the supervision
of Messrs. Rackles and Walz, who have
the contract for this feature There are
employed under them six or seven carverss
and with the improved machinery they are
able TO take the plain blocks and turn
them out deliberately carved in one-haf
to one-third the time required in doing the
work altogether with hand tools.
The carving is done entirely with the
pneumatic tools, compressed air being the
power by which they are operated. The
instrument is shaped something like an
interrogation point with long, straight
tail, and within 1t is a piston, which Is
driven back and forth by compressed air,
turned on and off at the pleasure OF the
carver by a spring which fits right under
his thumb The carving tool with which
the work is done fits loosely into the TOOL
just in front of the piston, which drives
it against the stone. The air is conveyed
from cylinder or compressor into when
it is pumped by a pipe running along the
roof of the shed, and from this extend
rubber tubes for each operator. A pres
sure of fifty to seventy-five pounds Is
kept up, with which the piston is made
to strike against the tool several hum
dred times a second.
The tools cut stone almost as If it were
clay or plaster. Some of the operators are
faster than others, but any OF them can
do the work in half the time required
with the plain chisel and mallet One of
the operators, an Italian, is a most expert
carver. Not only is he the fastest man
on the work, but he is an adept in the
art, and only has to get a good look at a
design to do his work There he lays the
design aside, carrying it entirely in his
head until he completes one style Of carv-
ing and has to go to another
The new building is going to be one OF
the most deliberately carved in the United
States. Some handsome designs can be
worked up in the Georgia marble, and this
work is going to show the building of
to most excellent advantage

SUTHERLAND's TWO WIVES.
NO. z Dismissed by Justice Goldman
After Hearing the Charges
Against Her.

No. Dismissed by Justice Goldman
After Hearing the Charges
Against Her.
MRS. James Sutherland the second was
before Justice Charles Goldman yesterday
afternoon for an examination on the
charge of adultery and was dismissed. The
warrant against her had been sworn out
by Mrs. Sutherland No. /, though it
seems she did not know exactly what she
was doing. She charged her CT devant hus-
band with the offense and thought his sec
ond wife might be treated to the same con-
sideration.
The first Mrs. Sutherland was represent
ed by H. E. Wilson, Esq, and the second
Mrs. Sutherland by Mr.. S. B. Adams. Mr.
Wilson said that nothing was really
known upon which to base a charge of
adultery against the second Mrs. Suther-
land and he would like the case to be dis
missed as his client had no desire to enter
into malicious prosecution.
The first Mrs. Sutherland was too hasty
in swearing out the warrant against her
successor, for the latter was innocent of
any knowledge Of her husbands former
connubial relations, and believed his first
wire uead until she chanced to discover
differently Then Sutherland in a burst of
confidence, conf1ded the statement that
she was not dead, but that he had a di-
vorce.
This feature of the case Mrs. Sutherland
the second thought was all right. though
1t was rather hard to put up WITH con-
sidering she had been induced to marry
under the belief that Sutherland was
widower by divine, rather than human
law. They lived together a while under
this new relation and then, rendered
just little too happy and confding by
excessive rotations, Sutherland astounded
her by declaring that he never had a d.
vorce from his first wife. That put an
end to the matter so far as the second
left to go to friends She had conducted
unfortunate condition, and many reput-
able people that know her say that she
is a very estimable lady
Mr.. Adams, for the second Mrs. Suther-
land, stated the case for the court, tell
ing how Sutherland had married his
client, Agnes Robertson, in Admission
Ala. and the belief she held of his hav-
ing lost his wife. He also spoke of the
estimation in which she has been held
in Savannah.
Sutherland has not yet put in an ap-
pearance, and Constable O'Neil, of Justice
Collman's court. is still on the lookout
for him. 1t is thought he has left the
city, as a thorough search has failed to
find him.
Justice Waring Russell, Jr., heard the
case jointly with Justice Goldman at the
latter'S request.

Mare Island navy yard in California. These vessels have been on the China station for three years. and the men have been on service in those waters, and they have seen plenty of it. All during the Japan-China war these sailors were kept busy looking after the interests of Amer jeans, particularly the missionaries.
 To those around the depot this morning the old salts had many stories to tell of the war. In those 150 sailors and ma rines there were men of all ages, with not a few old ones among them. Two of the oldest had ten and nine stripes of braid upon the sleeves of their jackets, showing that they had served respectively thirty and twenty-seven years in the navy. Their present terms of enlistment, three years, have expired, and at Norfolk the men will be paid off and discharged. Many of them have from 5000 to $2000 coming to them from Uncle Sam's strong box, and two or three of them have con- siderably over 5000 due. Those who re- enlist before the expiration of three months will receive three months full pay. and fully 90 per cent of the 150 men will re-enlist at the expiration of their three months run and be assigned to yes sells.

He refuses point blank to abandon his party and enter the family of his worst ene- mics. The following is part of what he says in the NewsReporter:
 The statement of MT.

Who Was the Best" Manp
Bridgeport News.

brluBepOft News.
 Late Wednesday evening Joe Allison and John Frield got into difficulty on the road to South Pittsburg, near the state line, and Frield used knife to good effect on Allison's body.
 The story told by James Hawk, who was with them a the time, Is that Frield was riding behind Allison on a mule, when they got into dispute as to who was the best man. After disputing for awhile Frield began to hit Allison on the head with his fist. In some way they tumbled off the mule, and Allison got Frield down and was beating him. Hawk pulled Allison off with the understanding that they were to quit fighting, but when Frield got up he began to cut Allison with a knife. They were parted again, and Frield started for the state line, but was arrested by Messrs Glover and Kirk patrick and brought here for trial before Squire Lloyd. The case was postponed until next month, and Frield was carried to Scottsboro for safe keeping.
 Allison, the wounded man, is said to be cut very badly, and Is not expected to re- cover.

He Has Keen Thinking.

We are permitted to print the following letter from gentleman of very high character and large influence, who has heretofore been In the ranks of the oppo- sition, but will support our ticket:
 St. Clair County, May 27, 1S96 Capt. Joseph r. Johnston, Birmingham, Ala.-
 Dear Sir: have been thinking about 50 cent dollars, 200 cent dollars and in- trinsic values, and am of the opinion that the money property given to any sub stance by law can have no intrinsic value. Gold and silver per SC, as commodities, have intrinsic values, but the money property given them by law has no in- trinsic value
 The rope and gallows have intrinsic value, but the hanging property given to them by law has no intrinsic value. The substance of which greenback is made has almost no intrinsic value, but the money property given to it by law is equal to the money property given to gold.
 The difference of 16 to 1 results from false conception which does not make difference between intrinsic value and law for the exchange of commodities. The battle cry for the campaign should be "Sound money and plenty of it," and, so far as I am concerned, independent of parties at home and nations abroad.
