den have returned to S.. Augustine on the
northern border Of St Johns county, where
they were called on Monday 10 hold an
inquest on the body of William Hicks, col
ored, who had been murdered a short
distance from the settlement. Hicks left
his home on Monday morning on horse

of buckshot. On his person was found
a revolver with one cartridge in It. The
weapon had not been used. The dead
man carried no money, but there had been
no attempt to rob him, and it is supposed
that the crime was committed by an enc

and an inquest was held, but no clue to
the mystery could be found. The jury
returned a verdict that the deceased came
to his death from gunshot wounds by
person or persons unknown, The remains

Insurance Policy on Life of

Insurance Policy on Life of IA
Former Snvannahian Has Nsatured.
The Aetna Life Insurance Company
wants Information relative to one James
w. Randall who formerly lived in Sa-
vannah. The company issued a policy
upon the life of MIR. Randall the prem
iums and the policy has matured. 1t Is
not known where he is, and the company
has written a Savannah gentleman in the
effort to gain some information.
A search of the files of the Morning
News failed to develop anything that
might lead to the discovery of MIR. Ran
dalls whereabouts. One would naturally
conclude that a man holding a policy upon
which he might realize money upon it's
maturity, would show up to make his
claim, and his failure to do so leaves a
rather plain inference that Mr. Randall
must be dead. 1t would be natural, though,
under such a circumstance, that claim
for indemnity for his death would have
been made by his heirs.
Mr.. j. r. Saussy recalled that one ].
w. Randall had opposed him in race for
the Legislature in 1868. The Morning News
files showed that there was such COM
petitor in the race. The policy upon Mr.
Randalfs life was issued in 1866

THE vEsTA COTTON MILLS.
Impossible to Get COIOred Labor to
Stick at MIL Work.

Charleston, $. Clan. 24-It was stat
ed to-day on excellent authority that the
Vesta Cotton mills. of this city, are to
be moved to Gainesville, Ga. The mill
here has been more or less of a failure
for years. Under its most recent re-or-
ganization, J. Fl. Montgomery, of Spar
tanburg, became its superintendent and
president, and an effort was made to
utilize negro labor. Even in these cir
cumstances the enterprise was not a sue
cess. --
President Montgomery recently went to
Gainesville and offered to move the mil
there If the citizens would take 500, 00)
in stock. 1t is presumed that this offer
has been accepted as the mill will be
taken there. No definite time has yet
been fixed for stopping work here The
mill has large and modern building
here, which will of course have to be
turned to some other purpose. A direc-
tor of the company said tonight that 1T
was impossible to get colored labor to
stick at mill work.

SI25,O0o FOR MULES.

The farmers of Dawson will not spend
less than $4,000 in Dawson for mules this
season. Thirty three carloads of stock
have already been brought here by the
dealers. There are from % to 2S in a car
load, and this makes total of about 800
head tnat have been shipped to the Daw-
son market, Estimating them at an aver
age of $40 each, which is probably too
low, we have the. sum of $4,000, which
has already been spent by the farmers
in equpping themselves with stock with
which TO make their next crop. Many
more mules will yet be sold, and it is
safe to say that the sales from now TO
the close of the season, several weeks
hence will run the total up to sl25 900.

was not in favor of the prohibitory tax,
but having no vote his opposition awaited
nothing. The council also placed a tax of
$50 upon all dealers in cigarettes or cigar
