NEWS IN BRUNSWICK.
Free Rural Delivery Recommended
in Several Counties.

Brunswick, Ga. Sept. 6.-Congress-
man Brantley has been alive to the
wishes of his constituents in the Elev-
enth district, and has been pushing the
matter of rural free delivery quite Wig
orously before the department officials.
He has received advices that Special
Agent Arnold of the postoffice depart
ment, has made a thorough investiga-
tion of the needs of the communities,
and has recommended to the depart
ment that eleven new routes be es-
tablished. The routes named by Mr..
Arnold in his letter to the department
are: Brooks county, one route from
Quitman Lowndes county, four
routes, one from Valdosta, two from
Hahira, one from Naylor: Dodge
county one from Eastman; Montgom-
cry county, two from Mount Vernon;
Johnson county, one from Wrights-
VILE; Laurens county, two, one from
Dublin and one from Dexter.
Mr.. Foster Memory, stenographer for
Congressman Brantley, has not yet suf-
ficiently recovered his health to re-
turn to Brunswick. but is improving.
Mr.. ]. G. Councilman. who has the
contract for repairing the Oglethorpe
Hotel, has a large force of hands at
work and is making the repairs thor
ough in every way. More money will
be spent in repairs than was obtained
from the insurance companies.
President Machen of the Brunswick
and Birmingham is expected here in
few days. Track laying is being push
ed rapidly and is now some miles the
other side of the Seaboard Air Line
track, while five trains day run out
for the various connections and to Sa-
vannah.

boarding at a place in Broadway. Lat
er this place was located as John
Nowak's saloon, a Raines' law hotel,
No. 1913 Broadway Here the prisoner
occupied room s.
Nowak. the proprietor, said he knew
very little about his guest. He came
there he declared, last Saturday, say
ing he had come to see the Pan Amer
lean Exposition, and that his home
was in Toledo.
He had been alone at all times about
Nowak's place, and had had no visit
ors. In his room was found small
travelling bag of cheap make. 1t con-
tanned an empty cartridge box and
few clothes.
With these facts in hand the police
went at the prisoner with renewed Wig
or in the effort to obtain either full
confession or a straight account of his
identity and movements prior to his
arrival in Buffalo. He at first admitted
that he was an anarchist in sympathy
at least, but denied strenuously that
the attempt on the life of the President
was the result of a preconcerted move
ment on the part of any anarchist So
ciety.
At times he was defiant and again
Indifferent. But at no time did he be-
tray the remotest sign of remorse. He
declared the deed was not premeditat-
ed, but in the same breath refused to
say why he perpetrated ii.
When charged by District Attorney
Penny with being the instrument of an
organized band of conspirators he pro-
tested vehemently that he never even
thought of perpetrating the crime un-
til this morning. After long and per-
sistent questioning 1t was announced
at police headquarters that the prison.
er had made partial confession, which
he had signed.

form of forage. Alfalfa made possible
the great stock growing industry OF
the state Last year the aggregate
number of horses, cattle, hogs and
sheen. according to assessors returns,
was 1000, 900, valued at $45, 900. Ex-
cepting the range sheep and cattle and
some horses in the cities, alfalfa form
ed the greater part of the food OF all
these animals. Thus dairying, new
but rapidly developing Industry, de-
pends on the alfalfa.
The great grain farms and potato
ranches need this product as well. AL
falfa is peerless as a soil renovator
and enricher. It's long roots, pene-
trating to a depth below the surface
that other plants cannot reach, gather
the needed elements and decaying,
liberate them for the benefit of future
crops.
The Colorado farmer has learned that
rotating crops of wheat and alfalfa
makes the average yield of wheat In
Colorado twenty-five bushels to the
acre, while the average for the whole
country is less than fourteen bushels.
The same rotation has produced the
famous Greeley potato, as inimftable
in it's way as the Rock Ford melon.
The Colorado stock raiser has discov-
cred that cattle may be fattened at
home without sending them to corn
states, and that alfalfa produces beef,
not tallow. He has discovered that
pigs turned into the alfalfa patch dur
ing the summer are ready for market
in the fall, and that alfalfa mutton
brings the top price in the East. The
small rancher knows that his chickens,
geese, ducks and Belgian hares are
finer for the alfalfa that forms part
of their daily food. and that his alfalfa
honey equals. if it does not excel, the
delicious white sage honey of Califor-
mia

EMMA GOLDMAN'S FOLLOWER.
Anarchist Writer Made Deep I'M
preston on CzaIogOsz.


Buffalo, N Y, Sept. 6.-Leon Czolo-
gosz, the would-be assassin, has sign
ed a confession covering six pages of
foolscap, which states that he is an an
archist, and that he became an enthusi-
astic member of that body through the
influence of Emma Goldman, whose
writings he had read, and whose lee
lures he had listened to.
He denies having any confederate,
and says he decided on the act three
days ago, and bought the revolver with
which the act was committed in Buff
falo. He has seven brothers and sis
ters in Cleveland, and the Cleveland
directory has the names of about that
number living on Hosmer street and
Akland avenue, which adjoin.
Some of them are butchers, and 9TH
ers in different trades. He is now de-
tained at police headquarters, pending
the result of the Presidents injuries.
CZologosz does not appear in the least
degree uneasy or penitent for his ac-
tion.
He says he was induced by his at
tention to Emma Goldmans lectures,
and writings, to decide that the pres
ent form of government in this coun-
try was all wrong, and he thought the
best way to end it was by killing the
President. He shows no sign OF In
sanity, but is very reticent about much
of his career. While acknowledging
himself an anarchist, he does not state
to what branch of the organization he
belongs

NEW YORK BENUMBED.
Grief of It's People Too Deep for
Expression.

New York, Set. 6.-This city was
stunned when the news came that
President Mckinley had been shot. AS
rule. the people on the streets were
palpably feeling more deeply than they
had the power to express. AS a conse-
quence there was a dearth of the dem
onstrations which accompanied the re-
ceipt of the news that President Car
field had been shot or the wonderful
outbreak of wrath and deep sorrow
which was a feature of the assassina-
ton of President Lincoln.
The crowds which gathered about the
newspaper offices in Park Row were in
some cases as numerous as are the
crowds on the occasion of national
elections. But they were not the cheer
ing masses which the New Yorker ex-
poets to see at such times. They were
almost stoical in their interest At
one of the boards when a bulle-
tin announcing that the physi-
clans at the Presidents bedside had
held a consultation and believed the
sufferer would live, the news was re-
ceived in dead silence.
At the big hotels the possible effect
on the financial situation was chiefly
discussed. All sorts of rumors were
abroad. 1t was said that j. +. Morgan
had summoned the chief bankers and
capitalists on board his yacht and was
holding a ways and means conference
and it was wildly stated that the pres
idents of all the big banks were in ses-
sion in the Metropolitan Club. The
truth is that Mr.. Morgan. after a short
conference with James r. Keene,
boarded his yacht and went to Great
Neck, L. /.
In the Fifth Avenue Hotel, Senator
Platt said that it was such cases as
these that justified lynching, and added
that he regretted that the penalty in
this state for the crime should the
President not die, was only ten years
in the penitentiary.
At the Democratic Club and in the
Hoffman House politics were forgotten
in the sorrow which was evident on
purely personal grounds.
The first resolutions of sorrow passed
in this city were by joint meeting of
a district Democratic organization and
district Tammany committee.
Capt. Titus, chief of the detective
bureau, after comforting by telephone
with Sergeant Valley, in charge of
the police bureau at the ex-
position in Buffalo, examined
the records of anarchists and danger
Gus characters contained in his office
and said he failed to fnd that Neiman
is known in New York by the police.

BABYLONIAN INSCRIPTIONS.
Two Interesting Volumes Just Is
sued by the British Museum.


From the New York Sun.
London, Aug. 24.-The trustees of
the British Museum have lust issued
two volumes of inscriptions which
throw light upon the literary activity
in Babylonia, both in! the Middle Ages
(B. G. 2S0O-10OO and during the Per-
sion rule. The first of these volumes
consist of a series of philogical and
lexicographical tablets; the first series,
from the Royal Library at Nineveh
dating about B. C. $50, are copies of
older tablets in the libraries of Baby
lonla, III" second series is a carefully
colTriled dictionary in forty tablet
books dated the tenth and eleventh
years OF tho reign of Artaxerxes (B
c. 455-4). v
In these we have the words arranged
under their roots, followed by their
derivations, and short examples of
their use, tablet dealing with the
numbers or multiples of ten, the names
of fractions on the sexigesimal scale,
thus thirty half forty two thirds,
etc, list OF the numbers sacred to
the various gods, and more important
than any, tablet giving more than
hundred explanations of the sign for
God and its compounds. The value of
this tablet to Biblical students will be
immense. Among the equivalents we
have Yatru or Yaveh, and a feminine
form, 1at,. The second volume will
prove more interesting to the general
reader, for it gives the complete text
of the Babylonion Creation Legions We
have here the Assyrian copies first
made known to the world by Mr.
George Smith. but still more import
ant are the fragments from the Uni
versity Library at Borsippa. These
tablets belong to the same age as the
dictionaries 4. c. ASS. They show the
legends then current and accessible to
the learned Jews, and it is impossible
to doubt their influence on the post
captivity writer's. Not only is the first
tablet almost an exact counterpart of
the opening lines of Genesis, but the
whole are permeated with the Mes
senianic idea. To the Son, Mirodach,
we find the epithet, 1.-The Restorer of
Peace" "the Avenger," constantly ap-
piled. 1t is he who brushes the head
of the woman serpent, "Fiamat." The
meeting between Mirodach and his
father the Lord of Hosts" (Ansar),
is given in a new fragment discovered
by Mr.. King, from which we make
this extract:
L 1HOu art lHy Sun, WIO Hldheln MS
tsaI-,
To thn battle thou shalt draw near
He taat shall look upon thee shall
have rest (of heart).
The lord rejoiced at the word of Ills
father.
He drew near and stood before Ansar.
He kissed him on his lips, and fear
departed from him.
The son then asks his father the
cause CT his trouble, and says:
Let RE go that 1 may accomplish that
which is in thy heart.
What varI ior has caused thee to go
forth to battle?
(No): 1t is Flamat the woman who is
armed, that attacketh thee!
The neck of Flamat swiftly shalt thou
trample under foot
It Is impossible not to see here the
Babylonian version of Genesis, ill., Is:
"I will put enmity between thee and
the woman, and between thy ses1 and
her seed; II shall bruise thy heal, and
thou shalt bruise his heel"
