Elba had done service for a number of
years as square rigger," but after an
unfortunate voyage was condemned and
sold In 1891 to the Savannah Lighterage

quentiy converted into a barge. The hulk
did good service up to a year ago, when
II began to develop a chronic inclination
to leak. After sinking a number of times,
without giving warning to the owners,
IL was decided that it would be better to
recognize the fact that the old hulk had
passed the time of its usefulness, and it
would be better to place it where IL would
be a monument to itself and serve as a
breakwater with other companions of the
same class.

Chickamauga, where there has been the
most sickness, was in charge of Gen.
Brooke. a regular army officer. And
when Gen. Brooke was relieved he was
succeeded by Gen. Wade, and Wade was
succeeded by Gen. Breckinridge-both of
the regular army. Camp Alger was In
charge of Gen. Graham. The camp at
Jacksonville was in charge of Gen. Fitz-
hugh Lee. who Is a graduate of West
Point, and has turned out to be the best
corps commander we have. He has kept
his command in better shape than any of
the Others"
He has the advantage of artesian
wells" was suggested.
"He had no advantage at ALL" retorted
the secretary, sharply. He simply did
his duty and looked after the health OF
his men as he should. He ordered the
adoption of certain simple sanitary regu-
lations, and saw to Il that they were
obeyed. The result was that he kept his
great army corps, stationed as 1t was
where one would naturally expect disease
to break out with only 2 per cent Of his
men sick, while camps further North have
been overrun with disease.
Another example OF the effectiveness Of
proper management In the prevention Of
disease WAS shown az Chickamauga In the
Eighth Massachusetts. The colonel OF
tnat regiment looked after the health OF
his men az Lee did after that OF his corps.
The result was that he had only twelve
men sick and about the same number In
hospital al the time this report was made

query of why typhoid fever prevailed
there so alarmingly. When he saw the

COURT At JASPER.
Interesting Case for Possession of n
I.nrm Which Was Sold for Tnxes.

Farm which Was Sold for Taxes.
Valdosta, Ga, Aug. 29.-Court at Jasper
Fla. VIII run through this, and proba-
bly, part of next week. one Of the most
interesting civil cases that has been tried
in that county wes disposed of last week.
Ii was q case In which the heirs of man
named Tucker who died TWEEN ty-seven
years ago, We're suing a man named Shaw
for ejectment, and to recover the place
upon which Shaw was living. II was al
legged in the testimony that the deed to the
property was held by Tucker at the time
of his death. The property consisted in $50
acres Of good land, and Mrs. Tucker rent
ed it 10 a man named Joe Morgan for $40
a year and taxes and repairs Before the
year was out, Mrs. Tucker died. Morgan
allowed the property 10 be sold for taxes
and bought it in. He subsequently sold It
TO WHY Smith. who, in turn, sold it to
Shaw.
Three of the heirs Of Tucker entered suit
for recovery Of the property. Witnesses
were introduced to substantiate their
claims, and the jury returned a verdict
in their favor. Since Shaw was in posses
sion Of the property he built an elegant
home upon II and otherwise improved 1t.
The negro stableman, who was sentenc-
ed to be hung at the last term Of the
court secured a new trial, and viii be tried
again this week. He Is charged with lur-
ing his daughter away from home and
numbering her, then burying the remains
under some moss in a lake. The outlook
is that he will be convicted again and SEN
fenced 20 pay the penalty of his crime with
his own life.
Melton Fishburne and Dan Putnam are
to be tried for numbering negro named
Pete Harris, near West Lake some time
ago. The grand jury brought in true
bin against the men last week.
John Henry, a young white man, was
brought up from Jasper to this city last
night. Henry was tried for some offense
there last week, and acquitted. He was
carried to Jasper from Live Oak, where
he was acquitted Of some charges against
him. He was carried to Live Oak from
here, and is now brought back to be tried
on charges here. Henry will be remembered
as the man who hid himself in a house
near Lake Park and defied arrest. A posse
went after him and he opened fire upon
them, shooting Policeman Hneley, of Lake
Park, on the head, but making only flesh
wound. The posse fired into the house,
wounding Henrys mother-in-law and
manning her for life. He afterwards sur
rendered He will be tried for resisting ar
rest, and for shooting a officers, at the
next term of court here.
