NO Developments.
corontr's Jury Will Wind Up Inquest al
Noon, Today.

II is probable that the inquest as to
the manner in which Albert +. Ham
ilton came to his death will be ad-
JDurned, at noon today. and then the
jury will bring in its verdict. The Of
licers We're busy all day long, yester-
day, running down what might be
thought to have some bearing on the
ease But nothing has yet developed.
1t has been decided not to have the
conductor and engineer of the east
bound passenger train present.
Some of the witnesses who We're be-
fore the jury at the last session will be
recalled and questioned further as to
their knowledge of the case. A few
other witnesses will be called. but not
as many as was at first supposed. since
some things that We're at first thought
to be clues when run down have prov
ed to be valueless.
The officers are confident that they
can account for the time during which
Hamilton was not seen or heard from
Their belief is that Hamilton dropped
ASLEEP in some field. then arousing him
self. walked up the track. where he
strctC he'd out. There is no evidence
yet To- support this.
In spite Of what has been learned
through the tireless work of the Off
GERS, there is IN existing opinion that
the man was the victim of foul play
While nothing can be found that will
SubStantiate this theory. yet there are
Very many who claim as before that a
train could not have caused the mans
death ard left no more of a mark than
MS found on his body.
There is slight question that. unless
some startling developments should be
made. the jury will return a verdict
without giving any statement as to
their belief Of how the man came to
his death \ thorough search Of the
locality in which the body was found
brought out no new developments.
Taken all in all. the case is extreme
ly battling. About all that il known is
that Hamilton was found dead and un-
less a Sherlock Holmes comes up all
that viii ever be found out is probably
now known.

AUGUSTA LOCALS
A Pastoral.

Just as the TWILIGHT hour had come
When frogs and crickets sing,
When evening shadows, deep and cool
Their rest and comfort bring
l saw a little city maid,
With careless head atoss
Trip gayly down the country lane.
And call, eco boss, CO boss
Her Bingham dress of rustic cut.
Hid not the town-bred air
Nor yet the pink sunbonnet stiff
That half concealed her hair:
She passed beyond the pasture bars
Her voice came soft and low
Come boss, come boss, come boss come
boss.
Co boss, co boss, co co..
Then slowly toward her Ger the hill
Four horns appeared in sight
And pallid grew that maiden's cheek
And large her eyes with fright;
She gathered up her Bingham skirt
And as she fled away
She shrieked at the astonished kline.
'Gway. boss, g'way, boss, go way

oppose and denounce the constructive
policies Of its progressive political OPP

The foreign commerce OF the United
States is regarded the world over as
the most important OF all. To this
country come the finest foreign ships.
The greatest and most powerful
steamship lines vie with each other
for our trade. The largest. the swift

ships that are built are for the carry

ships carry 90 per cent. This carry

year. All but b per cent. Of il goes out
OF the pockets OF American producers
and consumers for paying foreigners
for doing our foreign carrying. Not
only does II go out Of our peoples
pockets. but II goes out Of the eoun-
