A Leading Newcastle Street Mer-
chant Said to Be the COun-
ellis Choice.
STORY OF MAKING THE SELECTION.
Colonel Kay, Who Was the FavOrite, Re-
fused-0ther Probabilities Did Like
wise-Man of the Hour.

Unless THE TINES information ls
wofully wrong, which is remote pos
sibilIty owing to its authoritative
character, the next mayor of Bruns-
wick has already been chosen. He
was named at Tuesday nights caucus
of the council, in which Six aldermen
participated, and to the decision of
which the two absent aldermen,
Messrs. Krauss and Blood will
doubtless agree,
The report was made after Tuesday
nights caucus that no decision was
reached. THE TIMES, however,
learned yesterday to the contrary.
The information is, of course, not pos
tive, as it did not come from partic-
ipant in the caucus. 1t will, however,
do to bet on.
The next mayor of Brunswick is a
merchant on Newcastle street, whose
place is within a stones throw of the
city hall. He is an elderly man, strong
in purpose, true in heart, veteran of
the business world. He sat in the city
council as an alderman for several
terms in the days when Brunswick
struggled toward cityhood. OF late
he has abstained entirely from poll
tics, watching his business closely.
He has large property holdings and
friends uncOuntable. When you pass
his door his GENIAL salute greets you
as a welcome note of cheer amid the
labOrs of life. His name IS D. James
Dillon.
Judge Dillon does not know that he
has been selected. Such, however, is
the semi officially rumored fact, and
he will gain his first information from
this mornings TIMES. Whether or
not he will accept cannot be stated.
THE TIMES learns that the caucus
considered number of candidates,
finally settling unanimously upon
Judge Dillon.
The boom of another gentleman,
who was most prominently mentioned, =
was 80. Kay" until the gentleman
himself punctured it by refusal to ac-
cept the honor. Colonel Kay would
doubtless have been chosen had he
consented to serve. He was certainly
the favorite up to the hour of the eau
Gus. Mr. j. L. Beach, 1t is stated, also
refused to be considered. Mr.. E. F.
Coney was also probability who
wasn't willing.
The council will meet tonight and
carry out the action of the caucus, OF
course the changes of politics are rap
i'd and amazing, and the present hOro-
scope may prove deceptive; but you
can gamble on it, and your risk of loss
will be slight.

Attorney q. b. Mabry has forwarded
to Gov. W. Y. Atkinson the petitions
for executive clemency for M. Lowry,
who is under sentence of death for the
murder of Patrick Burns. The petit

and Attorney Mabry met with but few
refusals in his effort to save the life
of his unfortunate client.
Attorney Mabry also asked the gov

petition for executive clemency. AS
Lowry is sentenced to be hung on

There Is a strong sentiment here in
Lowry's behalf. and many will hope

the governor.

Savannah, June 2.-It has been an

opening In our market, but with no
improvement in business, as the sales
were very light. Spots we're quiet

There is a sort of Freemasonry
among the people who are regular Wis

1t is surprising how easily one slips
into the old easy indolent ways which
were given up so reluctantly last year
and all the old interest and pleasure is
renewed. LAL.

Paine, Murphy.t& Co.'s Grain Letter.
Savannah, June 2.-The appearance
of an improved cash demand changed
the sentiment In speculative wheat
today, checked decline and caused an
advance of per cent. per bushel from
the low point. The aggregate sales
are placed at about 100000 bushels,
$4,000 of which go to mlllers. During
the forepart of the session the local
feeling was bearish, and scalpers and
traders we're inclined to sell, influ-
enced by weakness IN Minneapolis
and st. Louis. Corn has been steady
again and closes at about yesterdays

pensive and each costume demanded
one of corresponding hue. After all,
there is nothing 30 acceptable as black

borne in mind that 1t is far better to buy
one good veil than to purchase half
dozen cheaper ones. The better wells

Mr.. Holmes, the librarian Of Queen

his life of the queen. 1t is characteristic
of her majesty's love of thorougness
that she revises every sheet of the manu-
script herself, and that she will strike
out the slightest biographical error
which may occur. The queens memory
Is singularly1 acute, and she very often
surprises her ministers by correcting
them in some detail, which, to them,
seems trifling, but which to her seems
all-important.

The foreign papers have said that deli
cate tints will be made into wedding
gowns, but the fashion seems to have
gained no headway, American brides
thinking better of pure or cream white.
Most of the gowns will have very long

made so as to reach the floor, completely
hiding the feet. Bodices will mostly be
high neck and the sleeves will be NOUS

at the top with a small mushroom puff.
Frills of lace will be worn in the sleeves
to fall gracefully over the hand. Alto

For the maid of honor and bridesmaids
white broadcloth will be much in evil

will be the thing. These hats will be
worn back on the head and many will

A De Ouincey Heroine

Readers of De Quincy will rem member
the very touching account which the
essayist gives of a family of children
who for two days and nights were
showed up in their lonely cottage In
Easdale The parents had gone to
neighboring village, were overtaken by
terrible storm and never came back.
The eldest child, a girl of IL. VINO had
played the mother to her brothers and
sisters In a way which only some chill
dren can, ultimately made her way to
a farmhouse, a search party was got to-
gether, and the frozen bodies of the pa
rents, who had been unable to make
their way against the wild force of the
storm were found near the famous Eas-
dale Tarn. The incident has frequently
been the subject Of story, and, II we re-
member rightly, Wordsworth also util-
lied it. We refer to it now in consequences
of the death of Mrs. Hall, the last sur
vivor of the orphan family, at the age OF
%. She was the youngest of them all.

should have pasNd away at time

LADY HENRY SOMERSET

corning the work Of the institution which
she planned and caused to be estab-
lished:
1T is encouraging to believe that we,
at any rate, are feeling our way toward
solution Of the difficulty that has per-
picked us sopely-how to deal with our
drunken women. The spirit of reform
is in the air; it affects all our views, and
must necessarily soon alter our methods.
We have hitherto relied on penal treat
lnent; now we are beginning to see that
we need educational methods. The prls-
on has failed as deterrent to the habit
ual drunk2rd, but we believe the hos
pital will Aueceed. and 1t IL essentially
on the lines Of hospital that we have
opened our work. Our medicine Is
fresh air and hard work, kindness, SYM
pathy and. above all. the atmosphere of
home. We have found that the outdoor
employments, in which most of our pa.
tients are engaged, have curiously ex-
hilarating effect both mentally and ply
sically, and the trim forcing houses, neat
gardens and well-grown fruit and flow
ers testify to the power of women to
carry out this work with a large meas
ure of success.
'.rhe hothouses, which have from first
to last been cared for entirely by the
women, have done so we'll this first year
that we are justified in erecting other
building on the same plan. The enthu-
siasm the gardening has awakened
among those who are engaged in 1t is an
other hopeful sign. Our women were as
intent on sending their crop of early
vegetables to the London market as any
professional market gardener in the
land, and as proud of their handiwork.
II was speaking few days ago to
the medical man who visits us periodi-
calfy, and he told me that he could not
have believed that such good physical
results could have attended the treat
ment given to the patients at Duxhurst.
He had seen women whose health SEEM
ed to have been permanently impaired,
entirely recuperated within a few
weeks latent disease in others, and new
health and vigor restored to them. Spe-
cially successful has been the system
of dividing the patients into little
groups, each circle occupying its own
particular cottage with nurse-matron
at its head. The institutional spirit has
been entirely removed In this way, and
the pride that the women take in our
little homes, as the women call them,
is testified by the spotless cleanliness
of the interior of each dwelling and the
laudable rivalry that exists in the village
as to which house is the best cared for.
The patients have been sent to us in
many Instances by magistrates, who
have given the women the option Of COM
ing to the colony or Of going to prison as
drunk and disorderly.
I'VE have also some who have left
prison, and many who have come volun-
tarily from their own homes. We make
no distinctions, and nobody knows the
history of any of the patients but the
sister superintendent and myself. Per-
haps the feature that has given US most
encouragement, however. is the manner
in which the women can be trusted af-
ter few months residence in the vii
lage. At first no woman IL allowed to
leave the prenises under any pretext.

INDUSTRIAL FARM COLONY
Abject Vice Gives Place 10 Honest
Wemeahood
Children Bring Brightness to the convaIes-
cents Prom squaior and crins-Wrscks
Transformed at Duxhurst

Lady Henry Somerset Is engaged in
developing a class Of new women which
10 likely to have marked effect on the
part of the world in which they reside.
This fact Is clearly demonstrated by the
report of what has been accomplished
druing the first year Of the Industrial
farm colony at Duxhurst. England, the
only colony of the sort in the world-the
only farm colony which is ruled by wo-
man and populated by her own sex.
The original cause Of the inception Of
the project whose fruition has been so
grateful was the fearful prevalence of
the love of liquor among the women Of
England located in the cities, who be-
longed to the working class. For many
years 1t has been the custom in England
for laborer's wife, for the wife of the
artisan. to indulge in her pot Of "'alf
and 'alf" without criticism. 1t Is this
practice that brought about the state
Of affairs lamented. Lady Henry, as
the chief Of the temperance movement in
England, thought out way in which the
women who had succumbed, not only
to the influence of drink. so far as be-
coming greatly addicted to it, is con-
cerned. but who had, by their love for
hquor fallen to the lowest depths, reach
ed that degradation which 1t 10 only pos
gible for woman to obtain.
The plan to which the philanthro-
pist's fertile mind gave birth was the
industrial farm colony. There were
croakers in plenty who prophesied all
sorts Of evil and the .dlrest failures.
Happily. they have all proved false
prophets, how thoroughly so is demon
strated by Lady Henry Somerset her
self. who has made this statement con-
