George declining the nomination for
governor. Mr.. Georges letter says:
Il am persuaded that by pursuing un-
interruptedly the duty of writing my
fathers biography-a duty to my fathers
memory and to the cause to which he
gave his life-I can do more for the
principles of freedom than l could by en-
gaging actively in politics. For at
time, when the two great political ma
chimes must excite public attention over
the questions of the war and criminal
scandals growing out of it and over
questions of official corruption and mis-
management in the State, the more re-
mote, though far greater economic ques-
tions would be lost sight of, and thus an
independent fight would not stand on the
merit of its principles, but get only such
scant attention in the public eye as might
be diverted from the fight over political
debauchery.
Il should say, moreover, in justice to
myself and to those who honestly ad-
vance the silver question to the rank OF

Washington, Ind, Oct. 3.-The uprising
of union coal miners, which last night
drove out the non-union colored miners
from the city, has almost totally sub
sided, and, with the exception of broken
windows and doors in houses formerly
occupied by the colored men, there is no

The strikers visited every house in the
city occupied by the colored men who
were brought here from Kentucky year
ago. and they were lined up. Then COM
menced a march west on the Baltimore
and Ohio tracks.
Upon reaching White River, four miles
west of here, Winchesters were pointed
at the colored men, and they were given
orders never to return TO Washington;
that if they did they would meet with
more severe treatment next time.
Only once did the co.ored men show re-
sistance. Upon reaching the corner Of
Main and West Third Streets several who
had reVolvers turned upon their captors
and fired FIVE shots into the crowd of
strikers. The whites Immediately returned
the fire, and one colored man emitted a
cry OF pain, but his companions hurried
him away, evidently fearing the conse-
quences should he fall behind.
When the.shots We're fired, Chief of Po-
lice Call turned in three alarms of fire
and this brought hundreds of citizens
upon the streets. The officer tried in
vain TO organize a large posse, but nearly
every man he deputized ran the risk Of
being compelled to pay a fine rather than
assist in quelling the disturbance.

''Rubber bands have supplanted twine to

salesman in downtown drug store yesterday as
he slipped a band around fve-cent package of
sodium biearbonate for customer. up to ten
years ago rubber bands were seldom seen outside
Of a courthouse or a lawyers office; and their
use was confined almost exclusively TO the filing
of court documents and papers. Now you find
packages in drug stores, ard they have become an
important factor in the grocery business They
answer the same purpose as twine, and are adj
justed much easier. And then, more symmetri-
cal package may be put up with the bands, and
that is the pride OF a good salesman. 1t may not
be generally known that rubber band is the best
teeth-cleaner known. 1t can be forced between
the teeth, no matter how close together and it
removes accumulations that cannot be reached
with tooth brush. Yes, the rubber band has
come TO stay. don't know to what extent il has

the District Commissioners Of a pro-

The notice reads, in part, as follows:
The Government OF the United States

from that of Mexico notice of its denun-
citation of the treaty for the extradition
Of criminals, fugitives from justice.
which was concluded between the two
governments on December Il, 1861, I have
the honor 10 advise you that as provided
for in article thereof, the said treaty
viii be abrogated at the expiration of
one year from the date OF the said notice
of denunciation, and that, consequently,
no further extradition proceedings will
thereafter be had for the surrender of
fugitives by the one country 10 the other

"A Million Dollars Damage in
Brunswick Alone.

Macon, Ca, Oct. 3-The Southern Rail-
way train arriving here this afternoon,
leaving Brunswick at 10 o'clock this
morning, brings the first information OF
the condition of affairs at Brunswick,
where the storm has been raging for two
days.
There is no estimating the amount of
damage that has been done, nor the num-
ber of lives that have been lost.
1t is known that eight people were
washed out into the ocean by the over
flowing waters, but only three bodies
have been recovered.
These were found just before the train
left Brunswick.
The names could not be learned.
In the city of Brunswick alone, 1t Is
estimated by passengers, at least mil
lion dollars damage was done. The en-
tire business portion of the city was mum
dated
The OgIethorpe Hotel the leading hotel
in the State in point of magnificence
was flooded so that everything on the

complete cessation of shipping business.
| as well as all mercantile affairs, in the
city. Ships are washed up high and dry
in several places. All indications are that
Jekyl. Cumberland, st. Simons and some
smaller islands along the coast have also
! suffered from the foods and wind. The
docks are all said to be either destroyed
! or ruined.
The storm has swept the entire State,
and at Reds Station, eight miles below
Macon, house was blown down last
night, killing one child, driving a splin-
ter through the stomach of another,
cracking the skull of a third and break
| ing the leg Of the mother OF the family
and crushing the shoulder of the father.
| All the members of the household may
die
Several similar catastrophes are report
ed from other localities.
1t is believed that whole families have
been drowned along the coast, as houses
are deserted, standing several feet in the
water and their occupants are missing.
The storm had been predicted for a
couple of days and a great many people
were as well prepared for 1t as possible,
but, in spite of this fact, everybody was
helpless when the floods came up from
the ocean. nothing of this kind ever hav-
