the kidneys and making them DO their

New York, Dec. 25.-President Nc
kinley's second Inauguration on March
4 next, will be marked with a cere-
monlal splendor never before at
tempted in the city, says the Wash
lngton correspondent of the World.
The inaugural committee, of which
John Joy Edison is chairman, intends
to make the Inauguration a magnif.
cent spectacle.
Military the Main Feature.
Military will be the main feature Of
the parade. The committee has invit-
ed state organizations to participate
and from the responses it is probable
that more militia bodies will be in
line than ever before.
The regular troops around Wash
ington will be brought here. The ca
diets from the military and naval
academies will also be in attendance.
Civic bodies will be well represent
ed, but the object of the committee
will be to make the parade as mill
tary as possible. Hundreds of appli-
cations have been received from
Rough Rider clubs that wish to par
ticipate.
An Innovation.
An innovation will be the decora-
ton of the capitol and White House.
Mr.. Edison will ask congress to au-
thoriZe the running of electric light
ing wires over the White House. He
intends that the capitol building, and
especially the great dome, shall be
outlined in incandescent globes, and
that the same plan shall be followed
with the executive mansion and other
public buildings.
Electric lights will be placed in all
h parks and reservations which are
supplied with fountains.
The inaugural Ball.
The ball of the last Mckinley inau-
guration, which was unanimously de-
clared the finest in the history of
these functions, will be eclipsed by
the n to come, which will be held
in the pension Office. More than S10,-
600 will be expended in decorations.

president.
The Reviewing Stand.
The reviewing stand from which
President Mckinley will witness the
parade will be directly in front of the
executive mansion and surrounded by
a court of honor. A plan for n
triumphal arch is being considered by
the committee, but whether or not
the arch will be decided upon is a
question.

NEGRO KILLED AT A DANCE.
Isaac Jessup is Dead-Man Killed by
n Falling Tree.

n railing Tree.
Qutman, Ca, May 30.-The negroes had
a dance and festival in vacant house
about a mile below town last night, at
which John Chapman was shot and in
stantly killed by another negro, whose
name could not be learned
The row between the men started about
which one should dance at the head of
the set. A large portion of the crowd
took sides with Chapman's slayer, and it
seems that two negroes had hold of Chap
man when he was shot. The ball en-
tered the center of the chest and pro-
duced instant death. No inquest was
held, but the officers have pretty good
clue as to who the guilty party is, and
il is probable that he will be landed In
jail in a short time.
Mr.. Isaac Jessup, farmer and we'll
known resident of this county, died at
Lake Park to-day and will be buried at
Hickory Head tomorrow. Mr.. Jessup
was IS years of age.
Tom Vickers, a negro employed by tine
contractors who are building the extern
sion of the South Georgia Railway, was
killed this morning by a falling tree. He
was one of a gang who were cutting the
right-of-way ahead of the graders, three
or four miles from town. The foreman
saw that the tree would strike him, and
called to him to run, but he failed to do
so, and was struck, his head being
crushed
