Sam Jones has preached the hottest
sermon ever preached in Atlanta. His
subject was the "Conscienceless Dew
ill.,
Drinking by society people got some
specially hot roasts. The society women
of Atlanta, he said, love whisky as well
as Decatur street bum.
The Capital City Club received some
attention at his hands also. He said he
could take forty drunkards and organize
a club that would be just as decent in it's
behavior and yet it would be raided by
the police before the eud of the first
night. He said the police were afraid
to raid the Capital City Club of Peach
tree street because it's members have a
pull in politics, but that they know that
disgraceful orgies are carried ON there.

strangers are not likely to know that

To be briefly biographical, George Tur.
ner was born in Edna, Mo-, in 1850, was
educated in the common schools of that
bailiwick and read law with his brother,
Colonel W. w. d. Turner, in Mobile, and
was admitted to the bar before he had
arrived at the age of 81. At the time of
his majority he was made the Republican
candidate for attorney general of Alabama,
but was, OF course, defeated General
Grant, however, who was his rrcAnai
~ end, appointed him to be United State4
marshal for the sfsQtherh and middle diz
tssaurs or Alabama, and he held that posi-
ton through the troublous and dangerous
days of reconstruction. He was. chairman
of the Republican state committee of Ala
bama from 1876 to 1884 and member OF
the Republican national conventions from
Alabama in 1876, 1880 and 1S84-in the
two latter conventions member at large
and chairman of the delegations He was
one of the 300 in the memorable conyen.
ton of 1880. In 1884 he was appointed as

A special from Kennedy, Ala, says:
''News reached here this afternoon that
tie negro, Andy Beard, who eloped with
the white girl, Iona Baines, who lived
abot ten miles south OF this place, in
Pickens county, was killed Saturday
evening in the public highway, near Oh

couple were overtaken by a body of
twenty-five mounted men, and as soon as
they discovered that they were being
pursued the negro began to run, where
upon the pursuers opened fire, killing
him instantly.
'The girl, Iona, cried out to the STAY

same manner that they had him, but tie
men rode away, leaving her near the
scene of the killing.
"Her father and brothers afterward
took her back home, and it is not known

ISL OTIS" ON GROVER.

ISL Otis" the Quitman county CORES
pendent of the Cuthbert Leader, has a
way OF expressing himself that is decid-
eddy unique. Here is the way he dispos-
es of our retiring president:
"Grover Cleveland will go down into
history as the most prominent president
we have ever had. He has got more
backbone and received more 'cussing'
than any man in America. Besides, he
has come as near fulfilling all his plat
form pledges as any president before
him. He promised to restore confidence.
and the result of the November election
is sufficient evidence to sustain him on
that line. He also promised prosperity,
and it would be silly, indeed, to suppos,.
a man could rise from '1-gallus' shAriff
to millionaire in II years where there
is no prosperity. Acco rding to nv waV
of thinking, he failed In only one Of his
pledges-that of giving us an honest
dollar, and he may have given ms
that' out somehow I can't understand
wy an honest do lar will slip around
and stay out of the way like sheep
killing dog. What call an honest dol
lar is one that has brass enough on it's
face to walk wight up to the counter and
order beers for the crowd. To say the
least of it, it is very unbecoming for any
democrat to abuse Mr.. Cleveland.

Notwithstanding the fact that Senator

next day. When 1.-THE next day is said
that does not mean literally all within SO
hours, but so close to it that it might have
been few hours less or a few hours more
And in all this there is story.
Senator Turner is a suave g -d~has5dsome
man, and nature has now'~ lied him in
this, for he is every ir,n 3. sSgentleman in
the oGs old fashioned adaptation of the

and honest He is southern by birth and
breeding and western in experience and
yet he bears himself with pleasant dignity
and wears silk hat that is not misplaced,
either on his head or in the character of
his costume and his general personal
bearing. To the casual reader this NAV

that it shall mean something to the

such a sentence. What. then, does the
law provide? 1t provides that a de-
fendant may appeal from an order fix
ing his day of execution and have ten
deys in which to present his bill of
exceptions upon such appeal. 1t con-
templates. therefore, by necessary in
ference, that the day Of execution shall
be at least ten days distant. 1t pro-
vldes that such an appeal shall not stay
execution unless. upon a meritorious
showing of error. the Supreme Court
shall so decide There is no danger,
therefore, of frivolous appeals from
such orders tying the hands of justice.
And Why, finally. was the stay grant
ed upon appeal from this order and
denied upon appeal from the former
order in the same case? The answer
Is plain upon the face of the decision
First, because there was no showing
before the trial Judge that Durrant 5
appeal had been decided; second, II
Durrant's appeal had been decided. 1t

and that courts judgment subject to
modification or reversal; third, because
it was a grave error, and a deprivation
of a defendants substantial rights, to
fix the execution at a day before the
decision of the United States Supreme
Court became final by the issuance of
it's mandate and, fourth, because to
fix it for a time less than ten days
distant deprived him of rights secured
to him by the Penal Code of this State.

THE NEW SEAL TREATY.

A treaty has just been concluded at
Washington which provides that the
United States. Russia and Japan are
mutually bound TO refrain from pelagic
sealing. They have not the power. ex-
cept they resort to force. to prevent
other nations from engaging in the
shameful industry
The conclusion of this convention puts
q treaty in force that ought to make
Canadians and the English blush. The
people of those jurisdictions may con-
tinue to steal seal under the pretext OF
open water sealing; but the treaty not

stigma

THE ASSAULT UPON THE SU-
PREAIE COURT.

Confidence may be reposed in the pub
lie judgment when the people are thor
oughly we'll informed upon the subject
in hand. 1t may be and sometimes is
in error for a time, even when the peo-
pie are informed, but as a rule the
judgment of an American community
comes around fully TO the right.
In the matter of the order of the Su-
preme Court in the Durrant case, be-
cause it has been misinformed, the pub
lie mind, as it finds expression through
the press, has judged that a convicted
defendant in a capital case can, by sue
cessive appeals wholly defeat the judg-
ment of the trial court.
But such is not the truth. The law
of the statute book is very clear upon
that An appeal from a judgment does
stay the execution. 1t is SO ordered
by the statutes made by the Legisla-
ture 1t is so in every State in the
Union, and It always has been so. Nc
just mind will demand the repeal OF
that provision Of the code, because 1t
is the only means through which pos
sible error on the part of a jury. or a
trial court and involving human liberty
may be corrected.
But an appeal from orders Of the
court made after Judgment has been
pronounced, does not in itself stay the
execution. A stay on such an appeal
can be effected only by the grant of a
certificate Of probable cause" either
by the trial Judge or by the Supreme
Court That is, on a showing made on
an appeal from an order after judg-
ment, a certificate Of probable cause
may issue, when the court has fair rea-
son TO believe that the question pre-
sented contains so much of doubt, as to
render it proper to be examined into by
the appellate tribunal.
1t follows therefore, that there is no
such thing as indefinite postponen1ent
of execution by reason of successive ap-
peals from orders after judgment, and
that the sensational contention that a
convicted criminal can postpone ex-
ecution until he dies of old age, is pure
fiction. Courts do not frequently grant
certificates of probable cause. Indeed
such grants are very infrequent, and we
know OF no instance where one has is
sued that there was not reasonable
warrant for it.
Those Of our contemporaries who are
so bitterly and persfstently abusing the
Supreme Court for interfering" with
DurTant's execution, should take time
to think upon the matter. and to as
certain the exact facts before indulging
in wholesale denunciation OF the chief
appellate tribunal of the State. They
was made before the court, and that
1t was, therefore. under it's oath bound
10 grant the certificate.
They Will find proof Of the fact that
an appeal after judgment does not stay
the execution in Itself. in the fact that
another appeal in the DurTant case
taken long ago but only recently ar
gued in the Supreme Court, is pending
and that there was no order staying
the execution because of that appeal
forsthe reason that none has been asked
for and the question of the propriety OF
certificate in that case has not been
raised before the court.

STOPPED BY THE REFEREE.
An Ostrich Bout That Evidently
Was Not on the Square.

Antoine Menke. having harvested his
hop crop, is having lots of fun these
dull days watching the antics of four
ostriches which he is cultivating out
on the bank of the American River
The two old hens had prize fight the
other day, and Menke was the referee.
The beasts or birds-whichever they
may be-insis'ted on clinching, and Mr..
Menhe had to spring" into the midst
of the ostriches, as the bout is report
ed and Violently throw them apart. "
He declared it no contest.
Then the two old hens shook hands
and snilingly ate from the referee
hand, just as if nothing had happened.
The two roosters request the state
ment made that they had nothing to do
with the bout. which they declare was
fake from start to finish.
