THE PROHIBITION FEATURE.

Early County News: The announce
ment made by Mr.. duBignon last week
that he will not be a candidate for
governor next year. on account of his
physical condition, has precipitated
lot of gubernatorial talk and governor
making has been going on at lively
gait in the daily papers. Hon. Dupont
Query has formally announced his
candidacy and it is generally recogniz-
ed that Attorney General Terrell and
Hon. Pope Brown will also be in the
race Then the South Georgia talk has
brought up the names of Col. j. h. Es-
till, Hon. w. G. Brantley and Hon.
Henry G.. Turner.
Mr. Guerry's candidacy, which is
mainly intended to further the cause
of state prohibition, is probably the
most complicating feature of the com
ing campaign II the prohibitonists
carry out their threatened intentions
and the campaign is conducted on the
same lines as last year, Mr.. Guerry's
candidacy is going to play havoc with
the South Georgia mans idea If more
than one South Georgian should re-
main in the field.

cows ATTACKED BY TIGER CAT.

Tony Mier of Diego had thrilling
experience last Saturday, which re-
minds one of the pioneer days, says
the st. Augustine Record. A few miles
from his place his cattle are turned
loose TO Craze. and last Saturday, as
usual were driven there by his chill
dren. two boys. the oldest about Il
years of age. The boys were mounted,
and when a short distance on the road
were startled by commotion in front
of the herd The cows were stampeded
by an enormous tiger cat. which sprang
from the bushes and attacked one of
the COWS, seizing the frightened ami
NAL by the nose. The COW beloved
with pain and fright. struggled madly
to free herself from the ferocious
beast and finally succeeded. The cat,
however. was not vanQuished, and
with a powerful spring, landed on an
other COW. Selling il by the throat.
Mr.. Mier brought his gun into play
and speedily ended the cats career.
Both cows were frightfully lacerated.

mentioned for Attorney General to

MAY BORE FoR OIL IN TATTNALL.

Tattnan Times Mr.. T. f. Grimes,
when asked what his opinion was in
regard to the prospect for oil at Man
assas, replied that he was practically
certain that there was oil under Man
assas, but could not say at present of
course. in what quantities IL could be
found. Mr.. Grimes has considerable
experience in prospecting for oil. He
was in the midst of the oil boom in
Pennsylvania many years ago. He
prospected all over that section at the
time and had ample means of testing
the business. He says the soil through
which Mr.. owens artesian well has
been driven at Manassas, bears every
indication that there is oil further
down. He will make a thorough
test of the matter in a short time and
would not be surprised to see some. OF
the excitement transferred from Beau
mont, Tex, to Tattnall county, Geor-
gia.

TURN ABOUT is FAIR PLAY.

Telfair Enterprise: The daily papers
have us down right when they say
that South Georgia is entitled to The
next Governor, and that we are unwill-
ing to do any kind of trading business
for him. All that we ask is that mid
die and North Georgia do unto others.
etc. We have pulled for the candi-
date. whoever he was. put out by those
sections without a word of complaint
for years; now we ask that our turn
he respected. and that we be allowed
to name the man. We have as good
material as there is in the state and
we know that IL is our time, so we
ask these sister sections to join us in
electing the next Governor of Georgia.

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of Ships
and Shipping.


The tug Abram Minis, Capt Avery,
returned yesterday from Philadelphia,
where she went with a tow from Jack
sonville. She sailed from Savannah
July IL, towing the barge Admiral
Tromp to Key West, and from there
back to Jacksonville, from where she
lowed the large scow No. 81 to the Del
aware Breakwater.
Capt. Avery reported speaking a
large fleet of schooners on his return
trip from Philadelphia Among them
were the following:
Brigadier. for Wilmington, N. c.;
William H. Skinner. for Jacksonville:
Nelson E. Newberry. for Charleston;
Mary Sanford. for Mayport; Charles
E. Lister, for Wilmington, N. c.; r.
Bauers, for Brunswick; Normandy, for
Darien: I. and T. Lupton, for Will
mirgton, and Maiden, for Savannah.
The greatest bread winner" in the
steamboat line ever owned by Louis
vile capital was the Fanny Bullitt,
says the Louisville Post, a slow pas
senger and freight packet, in the Louis
vile and New Orleans Lightning Line,
her record on earnings being 100000 in
a single season. When her books were
gone over at the end of her life. the
fact was asCertained that she had paid
for herself fourteen and one-half
times. Her unbeaten season was that
of 1857 and 1858, during which she made
records on cargoes of tobacco, cordage,
bagging and corn from the Ohio river.
for reshipment at New Orleans to for
eign ports; and sugar, molasses, rice
and coffee, from New Orleans to Ohio
river ports. She always had her cab
ms filled with passengers, none of
whom cared about making fast time,
and money rolled into her tills like
wheat from mill hopper.
A subject which is always of interest
in connection with all marine machin-
cry is the use of liquid fuel, says Cas-
sier's Magazine for August. It's OBJ
vious advantages in the way of con-
venience of storage and rapidity of re-
ceipt are in it's favor, while the much
higher calorific value than that of coal
and the close fire regulation possible.
as we'll as the immediate effect of its
combustion. would all commend 1t very
highly. Experiments have been made
in many countries to determine its
adaptability, and some very interesting
experiments made in Italy about 1892
showed that a common opinion is err
roneous, namely that the use of steam
for spraying the oil would be inadmis-
sible on account of the large amount
required. The italian experiments
showed that high efficiency in the
use of oil could be obtained with an
expenditure of less than 2 per cent. OF
the amount of water vaporized. This
would be the simplest way to secure
the spraying of the oil, as 1t would do
away with the somewhat complicated
machinery needed for COMPRISING air
if that were used.

ENLISTED THE MoUNTAINEER.

The Rome Tribune's correspondent at
Camp Davis at Dalton is responsible
for the following: The other morning
a lanky mountaineer strolled into the
street of the Hibernian Rifles, and aft
er asking a few preliminary questions
stated that he wanted to enlist. He
had always wanted to take an ocean
voyage. and was delighted when he
was told that the regiment would sail
for Manila Immediately after leaving
Camp Davis. The showerbath tent
in the rear of the company street was
pointed out as the recruiting headquar
tiers, and Colonel Ware of the Rifles
acted as recruiting officer. The recruit
hailed from Walker county, and gave
farming as his vocation. He was re-
quired to answer a number of ques
lions in order to properly fill out his
application. When asked If he had
ever seen service in battle. he replied
that he once had a fight in Walker
county. and killed six men. but had
been in no other battle. Surgeon T.
P. Mitchell then had the wouldbe SOL
