1t is feared that decision rendered
b. the supreme court of Georgia will
have the result of encouraging lynch
irGs III the state. The case was that
OF Dorsey versus the State of Georgia.
and came up from Carroll county. The
supreme court split upon the decision,
the justices refusing to affirm the SEN
tence of guilty by the lower court for
the following reasons:
First, in order to secure d conviction
for criminal assault the evidence must
show, beyond all reasonable doubt, an
ASA ult; second, the intent, and, third,
a purpose to carry into effect this in
tent with force. If either of these ele
mcnts are lacking the offense is not
made out.
Justice Lumpkin, who spoke for the
dissenters, said:
Evidence warranting jury in find

himself by the side of a public road,

GUNS LOADED WITH DUM-DUMs
The Deadly Weapon with Which the
Guards at the Joliet Peniten-
tiary are Armed.

Chicago, July 31.-The Tribune SAYS:
Every guard on the penitentiary
walls at Joliet is armed with Il new
Mauser rifle, and the rifles are loaded
with ''dum-dum'' bullets. This bullet
is the one that was denounced in the
peace conference at The Hague as
barbarous implement of warfare. 1t
is the kind of bullet that was found to
be so effective by the British soldiers
in India in their recent encounters
with the rebels. 1t is the same sort
of projectile that Sas the subject of dis
cussiOn in the British house of COM
mons last week because is was fur
nished to the troops TO be used against
the Beers in the event OF war in the
Transvaal. This is said to be the first
instance of its use in the United
States. The bullets used at Joliet are
made by an American firm. and they
are described on the labels of the
boxes that contain them as soft nose
bullets" When they are forced into
& body the soft nose fiattens and
spreads, and the long proiectile as
sumes the shape of Il mushroom.
One of these projectiles makes
small hole on entering, but in passing
out it tears away the flesh and leaves
q ragged wound, sometimes as large
as mans hand.
