Excitement Over q Seriou
Charge.

At Atlanta, Sunday, in the
midst of DR.. Dimon's sermon,
the congregation began to shout.
The excitement reached such a
pitch that the doctor had to re-
tire from the pulpit. After this
subsidized, the board of stewards
held a meeting and passed
resolutions of sympathy for the
minister, who is pastor of St
Paul's church, and is one of the
most highly connected preachers
in the city. The shouting was
prompted by the congregation S
sympathy for him on account of
the sensational charges of Mrs.
Jester against Miss Dinon, his
daughter. The young lady had
been accused of stealing 500
worth of diamonds, and while
the sermon was in progress the
congregation seemed to be think
ing of the matter SO much that
they could not restrain them
selves 1t was a regular old-tash-
ioned shouting, and lasted for
some time. The outburst was
spontaneous and unexpected.
1t created a sensation which
spread through the city. Mrs.
lester now admits that the
charge resulted from "sitting"
with a female Clairvoyant.

H0RR|BL {, IF TRUE.
A Negro Said to be Slowly Con-
sumed by Sulphurous Flames
FOR BLASPHEMY.
The People are Wrought
up to the Highest Pitch
Of religious excite
ment over it.

|
to the Atlanta Journal of the
18th, says:
This community is thoroughly
aroused over the weird rumor of
a divine visitation which comes
from Troops Ferry, just beyond
the Oconee river and about
twenty-five miles from here. The
story while it surpasses belief, is
repeated in every quarter and
the people of the surrounding
country are wrought up to the
highest pitch of religious excite
ment over it. The strange story
follows:
One night last week several
negro turpentine workers were
playing cards near the ferry. One
negro had seven dollars at the
beginning Of the game, but lost
steadily until at last he had left
only one dollar. Holding this
high above his head, he swore
that if he lost it, he would curse
God. In the next deal he lost It,
and in consequence he executed
his oath.
No sooner had he done SO than
he was heard to scream, and his
companions on looking at him.
saw that sulphuroas flames pour
ed from his mouth, ears, eyes and
nose.
Terribly frightened, they at
fist ran away, but soon returned
and endeavored to relieve his
sufferings. Water poured upon
him was without avail. A blank
ct was brought forward and they
attempted to wrap him with it.
i'll order to extinguish the flames
but the would be rescuers were
kept away by some mysterious
power. About four feet was as
near as an approach could be
made to the unfortunate victim.
Then. thinking that the log
on which he sat was in some
way responsible for his predica-
ment they began to saw it off
near the point on which he sat.
The first incesion of the saw
caused blood to drip from it, and
to fall with the sawdust to the
ground. An ak was next sent
for, but its use revealed the fact
that in every part the log was
filled with veins of blood.
Then they threw a moose of G
rope over the negro's body and
tried to pull him away from his
position.
According to reports they
might as we'll have attempted
to draw a star from the sky. The
rope in consequence of its con-
tact with the BODY of the victim,
rendered as naugh the great
strength of those who would
save him.
There he sits, rumor says con-
sulning, yet with no probability
of ever being utterly consumed
dying always, yet not dead-liv-
ing in and breathing the fires
Of hell. crying for water, which
poured upon him causes him to
scream as mortal was never heard
to shrek before.
1t is said that people flock TO
see him, but, appalled, by the
sight, turn and flee, some with d
terror that is piteous to witness.
The children Of Adrian are
terrorized by the rumor and
speak of it in whispers of hor
ror. Night is no more welcomed
and sleep with them has only
the meaning of Plutonian
dream.
