THE CONDITIONS IN GEORGIA.

A BRUTAL murder is announced in
the following simple telegrsphic RS
port:

ly killed j. L. Murray, Negro, at
Naylor last night, after desperate
duel in which ten shots were fred.

1t seems that MURRAY was endeavor-
ing to secure laborers and for this
alone he was killed. A glimpse of ex-
listing conditions may be further OBJ
tanned by carefully reading the follow
ing announcement:
ATHENS. Ga, March ia crowd OF
about 500 Negroes assembled about
the Seaboard Air Line depot here to-
day for the purpose of ENGRAVING to
the Mississippi Valley. 1t had been
reported that they were to be given
free transportation, but that the rail-
road officials here were to allow none
on the trains who had not paid the
regular fare to Atlanta.
When the 3:40 train came along
this morning there was scene OF wild
confusion. The Negroes made a rush
for the coaches, and the police had q
hard time keeping them of. In the
melee Policeman Alexander Sage was
badly bruised. The same scene was
repeated on the arrival and departure
OF other trains.
"Mr. James M. Smith, who operates
the largest farm in Georgia, was here,
and had sixteen of the Negroes arrest
ed. They were under contract with
him. Other farmers took similar ac
tion with hands under contract with
them. Many OF these Negroes have
sold or given away all their posses
sions IN order to get away. aud are
confident that they will De taken of

depot, and the authorities are at q loss

limited, and 30 individual defendants.
The answer meets every one of Mr..
Tricks allegations, declaring that Mr..
Frick himself led in the reorganization
OF the company, and was foremost in
upholding the so-called 'ironclad
agreement" under which his holdings
have been transferred. The answer de-
clares that Tricks holdings came to
him without the expenditure of a dol
lar OF capital, that he has already re-
ceived from them nearly $1,000, 0OO
and has nearly $4,000, 900 coming to
him, which will be promptly paid. Mr..
Carnegie's estimate OF the probable
profits in 1900 was made in Jest, and
the profits in 1889 were substantially
as averred by Prick. Carnegie denies
any attempt to control his partners.

FOR MALARIA,
CHlLLS and fever.
The Best Prescription Is Grove s
TasteleSs Chill Tonic.
Formula Is Plainly Printed on Every Bottle.
So That the People May Know Just
What They Are Taking.

Imitators do not advertise their formula
knowing that you would not buy their medi-
cine if you knew what it contained. Groves
contains Iron and Quinine put up in correct
proportions and is in a Tasteless form. The
Iron acts as a tonic while the Quinine drives
the malaria out of the system. Any reliable
druggist will tell you that Groves is the
Original and that all other so-called "Taste-
less" chill tonics are limitations. An analysis
of other chill tonics shows that Groves is
superior to all others in every respect. You are
not experimenting when you take Grove's-its
superiority and excellence having long been
established. Groves is the only Chill Cure sold
throughout the entire malarial sections of the
United States. No Cure, No Pay. Price, soc.
