HANNIaAE's QUEER BOOKS.
HierOglyphics introduced in City Court al
Evidence Yesterday.

HierOglyphics introduced in City Court as
Evidence Yesterday.
City court spent yesterday in hear
ing an issue between Hannigan,
white farm laborer, and Captain
Barnwell, the plantation owner who
employed him. 1t wasa unique case
and had several amusing features.
Hannnigan is an ignorant man who
claims that his rights have been
trampled upon and his earnings de-
MED him because he is too ignorant to
look out for himself. Barnwell claims
that Hannigan has received every
cent due him either in goods or
money.
The amount of the laborer's claim
was $240. He exhibited in court 9
most original and peculiar set Of
books, which he explained, not with
out some difficulty of expression or
his part and some lack of comprshen
sion on the part of the jury. Hanni'
gan eau neither read nor write, but
as an unique accountant, he seems tt
i be brilliant success.
! In these books of his he indicated
the various articles he received from
Captain Barnwell by signs stranG
and unoouth. A long straight mari
meant sack Of -four; a crooked mark
pound of bacon; cross mark, hat
a small circle, a shirt; large circle,
pair of pants, and SO on. The jur!
will have time estimating tn
amount of Hannigan's account iron
the books which he has introduced a.
evidence.
The case went to the jury at
o'clock.

Paine. Murphy 3 Co.'S Cotton Letter.

Savannah, Aug. 12.-The market
today has shown very little animation,
a slightly lower range of values has
been established as a result of disap-
pointing Liverpool cables and reports
OF rain at Kerrville, Tyler, Ballinger,
BRENNAN, Dallas, Houston, Lampassa,
Longview, Orange, San Marcus and
Luling, Texas, and also good rains in
Louisiana, Mississippi and Georgia.

DOING GOOD WORK,

Removal of Bar Material by Goodyear
Pocket Drsdge,
The dredging on the bar is progress
ing very nicely. The tug Alexander
Jones, which came to this port with
the intention of taking part in the
tugboat war, has been engaged by Col.
Goodyear TO assist in his work, and
will not find time to do much towing.
The removal of the bar material is
being accomplished successfully and
rapidly by the pocket dredge, and it is
believed that the depth necessary to
the payment of the next instalment of
the appropriation will be rapidly OBJ
tanned.

by the city council some time ago, but
has not been felled.

Fa rmers' Institute at Howell.


A Farmers Institute is to be held
at Howell Prairie Grange hall on Dec.
10th and 18th 1897, and a word as TO
what these Institutes are, may not be
out Of place. They are held at vari-
Gus points throughout the state under
the auspices of the State Agricultural
College at Corvallis. 1t is ordered by
the Board OF Regents that six Of these
be held annually, and the number
frequently exceeds this. These meet
ings are in'no way political. They do
not represent any faction whatever
desirous Of putting its principles be
fore the public. They do profess to
afford opportunities TO farmers on the
one hand, and professors OF the col
lege on the other, TO exchange ideas
and.experience IL agricultural affairs.
They haye proved to be one OF the
best means of enlightenment regard
ing practical points Of farm, garden
and orchard. These meetings are
always perfectly free, no admittance
fee being charged at the door.
There are always points under dis
cussion which interest ladies; and
therefore, to the entire public, and to
the farmers In particular, cordial
invitation is extended.

UNUSUAL NEGLECT.


The Cox Robbery in the East End of the
County Not Reported to the Authorities.
The bold robbery of DIR. and Mrs Cox
at Bloomfield last week. full account
of which was published in Mondays
Leader, is still mystery. A well
known resident of New Matamoras
wrote to the Commissioners to send a
detective to the scene of the crime'
near New Matamoras, but further tina n
that the county authorities have not
had word from those Interested.
The Sheriff received no description of
the robbers
The Commissioners met Wednesday,
but decided not to offer reward on
account of the apathy shown by those
in the immediate vicinity of the rob.
berry.
1t seems strange that crime of this
magnitude could be committed in
Washington county and the perpetra.
tors go free without strenuous efforts
to secure their capture.
