Over
Women.

Many a man sees his wife bend and
tug at burdens that strain the back and
the heart alike, without any idea of the
outrage. Children follow in too quick
succession to allow the mother time to
reCupcrate. The womanly organs become
displaced, there are facilitating, disagree
able drains, with the added pain of in
famed or liberated parts. In his condi-
ton the woman bravely tries to carry her
household load, afraid to take the rest she
needs lest a meal will be late. No wonder
she is pale, weak, wretched, surly of tenn
per aud snappish of tongue. She would
be false to nature if she were anything else.
No persons need help SO much as the class
of whom this woman is the type. And for
such women no help is SO sure, SO wonder
flu, as that given by DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. 1t restores all the womanly
organs to perfect health. 1t establishes

INSPECTOR WALL FREE.
COrOner's Jury said Shooting or
Lewis Hamilton Was JustifRbIe.

LetF1s hamilton was JustAnhDle.
The coroner's jury empaneled last night
10 investigate the cause Of the death OF
Lewis Hamilton, the negro who was shot
and fatally wounded by Sanitary Inspector
w. NJ. Wall. on the night of Oct q, re-
turned a verdict of justihable homicide,
after short deliberation.
The shooting took place at Huntington
and West Broad streets. at a late hour
of the night or early morning. A negro
who was passing arrested Inspector Wall
and accompanied him TO the nearest Game
well box, which the inspector opened with
MS own key and called for the wagon. In
this he was taken TO the station house and
held until there seemed every assurance
that Hamilton would recover. Then he
was released under bond Instead of get
ting over his wounds, Hamilton began a
week or two ago to get worse and died
last Friday. Wall offered TO surrender
himself to the police, but was told he
would be notified when needed.
Wall made a statement at the inquest
which was in accordance with the state
ment he told during his detention at the
station house, and which was corroborat-
ed by the testimony of five other wit
nesses.
The story is 10 the effect that as Wall
was coming up West Broad street he was
assaulted by several negroes, one Of
whom was Hamilton, and all began to
beat him. Hamilton was the ringleader
of the attacking party and was struggling
with Wall when the latter fired the two
shots. The rest of the negroes by whom
he was being attacked ran away accord
ing t. Walfs statement, and he was held
by another who came up afterwards, I'M
til he went to the box and called for the
patrol wagon
Under the showing thus made there re-
manned for the jury nothing but to bring
in verdict Of justiiabe homicide, which
was promptly done Coroner Goette stat
ed that he had found it extremely diff
cult to get evidence. and that ne had not
been able to secure the presence at the
inquest of the negro Taylor, by whom
wall was detained after the shooting
From Hamilton himself, the coroner stat
ed. he had never been able to get an in
telligent statement. Coroner Goette went
several times to Hamilton's house, but
had never found him In such condition
that his statement of the case would be
of material value.
However. Hamilton did made a state
ment, after the shooting, that differs ma
terially from that of Wall. He said that
when he came down the street and met
the inspector he had colllded unavoidably
and unintentially with him. Wall had
been drinking and was quarrelsome, he
said, and was inclined TO be ugly. One
high word led to another and finally Wall
had drawn his revolver and fired two
shots. These Assertions, though, could
not be brought out at the inquest, be-
cause of failure to secure a statement
from Hamilton prior to his death, and I'M
der such circumstances as would make it
admissible in a court of law

ABOUT 1000 ELECTRIC FANS.
BevOIve in savannah as Substitutes
for Cooling Rreezes.

Savannah is a great city for electric
fans. The number operated by the Edison
Electric Illuminating Company misses 900
by a very small margin on either side, so
The city is interested in the project that is
afoot at the North for the organization of
an electric fan trust among the fourteen
concerns that now manufacture the popu-
lar substitutes for the breezes that some
times refuse to blow during the warm
summer months.
The fans that stand about on the deske
of business men or hang from the ceilings
il hotels, clubs, restaurants and business
houses are practically all enjoying a rest
now. But during the summer they will
again be in use. They viii not wear and
tear forever without getting the worse for
it, so IN course of time new fans will be
needed. Then the trust will be getting in
its work. New concerns and new business
men viii be wanting fans even before those
at present in use play out so Savannah
VIII be feeling the effects of the trust even
sooner than would be the case If the death
of the present dispensers Of cooling breezes
we're ali to be feared.
1t is not an assured fact that the capt.
talsts will succeed in their project for
forming the trust, that was reported in
the Morning News dispatches yesterday.
1t is presumed, however, that the promot-
ers of the scheme know what they are
about and that the electric fan trust will
soon enjoy a place among the others in
the country. The amount named at which
the concern would be capitalized is $685.
00OO0O which would make it one of the
most gigantic of the trusts.
Business men believe they have to paw
enough for the fans they use already II
the trust should prove one of the sort that
runs down prices it would be received
with satisfaction. If. however. the reverse
should be the case, the business men would
prefer the present division among the
manufacturers to remain

PERDUE AND POPE HAD MONEY
Their Friends Claim They Brought
Over $500 to savannah.

Their Friends Claim They Brought
Over $500 to Savannah.
James Perdue, brother of David NJ. Per-
due. who was asphyxiated in a boarding
house here last week, left Scott yesterday
for Savannah to inquire into the death Of
his brother
A dispatch from Wrightsville, near where
the Perdues lived says that considerable
excitement has been caused by the death
of Perdue and Pope, and that there is
general movement on foot to investigate
the matter, as it is said there that Per-
due had quite a sum of money when he
left for Savannah, and it is believed it
was not deposited.
OF the sum that he is supposed to have
brought with him, $40 was in currency,
and he had also a check drawn by Alfred
in favor Of Mrs. Beatty and Endorsed by a
Mr.. Thompkins. The money, Miss Lula
Belle Perdue asserts, that she wrapped up
and placed in her fathers inside vest
pocket. AS only a small amount was
found after his DEATH his friends are of
the opinion that he was robbed.
Mr.. Pope it was said, left home with
some $12 from which the price of his
ticket being deducted, would have left
him about s. when he reached here.
Mr.. Perdue mad not reached the city up
to a late hour last night and it is not
known what steps he will take in the mat
ter. The manner of the death of the two
men having been fully established, what
became of the money they are said 90 have
had is a matter of inquiry.

DRY GOODS IN A BLAZE.
VI. H. Schultz store ON Barnard
Street Damaged.

A blaze discovered in the dry goods
and clothing store of NJ. L. Schultz No.
As Barnard street, shortly after o'clock
last night. was prevented from becoming
a disastrous conaagration, embracing in
it's possible path Of destruction many of
the stores in the retail business section of
the city. only by the prompt response and
active efforts Of the northern section of
the fire department.
Some pedestrians walking along Barnard
street saw the flames in the little store,
and, hurrying to the nearest box, No 10,
at the corner Of Barnard and State streets
turned in an alarm. The section of the
department closest to the scene of the fire
responded within two or three minutes aft
or the alarm had been sounded, and in a
space of time almost incredible there were
Two streams Of water and gas from the
chemicals pouring into the burning build
ing.
When the fremen reached the scene, a
tongue of flame was laring from the door
and seemed to extend half way across the
street. The awning above the doorway
was ablaze and the flames from this had
communicated with the shutters of the
windows on the second and third floors
of the building, which were also burning
flercely and threatened TO carry the fire
into the upper stories. These latter were
arranged in flats and rented out to several
families.
Inside Sohultz's little store there was a
perfect mass of fire. His stock seemed to
be Of very combustible material. for 1t
fed the flames well and they devoured it
greedily. The heads of excited women
protruded from various OF the upper win
dows, some Of them GENEROUSLY demand
ing that they be brought or assisted down
to the ground. Soon the fire had forced
itself across the top of a partition that
separated the store already burning from
that of J. 7. Wilensky, a jeweier who oc-
cupied the store on the corner of Brough-
ton street
The quick work of the fremen prevented
the further spread of the flames, and soon
sutticed TO put the fire completely out.
The damage will reach probable something
over $500, most of which is TO the stock
of goods in Schultzs store, where the
fire first started. The proprietor of the
place stated to a reporter of the Morning
News that his stock was worth between
$1,000 and $500 with $500 insurance A
little later, though he stated that he had
no insurance at all. Wilenskys jeweiry
store and its stock was damaged by water
and breakage to the probable amount of
500. The building is not greatly in
jured.
Chief Mcguire said he was at loss for
an explanation of the manner in which
the fire had started, and would not haz-
ard a surmise as to the cause. Mr..
Schultz, in his conversati ton with the
Morning News representative, said he left
the store a bare five minutes before he
heard the alarm of fire and hurried back.
to find 1t in flames. He had closed and
locked it for the night, and II was impos-
