The Rock Creek Record, published at
Quigley, thus sums up the history of that
camp: 1.-TWO suicides: old man Quigley
broke and demented; several fortunes
lost; a deserted village; a profligate ex-

medals to the survivors Of the wars.
The city is in a fever of excitement
AID the stcries are generally conflict

sf. .ir is that as the president was en.
tvriug op foot the Alameda cr Central
Pak OF the city, a middle aged man
armed with long poniard, ] lmped
forward from the crowd and made an
attempt to stab the president. H was

postmaa.er Shot Down.

III. Lotion, the negro postmaster
at Hogansville, Ca, was SHOT three
timss At 9 o'clock Thursday night by
parties unknown and IS IL p:ecarious
condition, taough it is believed the
wounds will not prove fatal. Lotion
had iast closed his postotfce and was
a few yards from the door, enrouto to
ais hone, when several parties
emerged from the darkness aad began
10 fire al him. He ran few steps and
fell 10 the ground apparently dead.
Firing then stopped ard the would be
murl erers dispersed, evidently belje7
ing their victim out Of the way. Lot
ton was subsequently, carried to his
hcme by his friends and medical aid
was summoned. The people Of ho
eansville were grea.ly excited during
tue night, and The occ lrreacs is the
t.lk today in every section of Troup
and aGi Dining counties, but no clues
can be gathered as to who did the
shooting or assisted in the attempt to
assassinate the newly appointed feder'
al official. No person in Hogansvllle
knows, apparently, and but few seem
to care to know the names OF thoss
guilty Of the crime. Politics led to the
attack. Lotion was appointed ABOUT
three months ago to the position OF
postmaster over the protest CT nearly
every white citizen Of the town. Hold,
ing offce under such circumstances
tee negro official hiss displayed sui
len disposition, it is alleged, toward
The whites and made himself gener,

.la: complaint was made 10 the prop

paid to it, or had not been at the tine
of the shooting, as Lotion had no:
