FOUND HER NOT GUILTY.
Case of Murder Against Emma An
derson Broken Down.


Emma Anderson, a negro woman, was
tried in the Superior Court yesterday
morning for the murder of Marguerite
Anderson, little negro child whom she
had adopted and was rearing. The child
died six months ago, and it was claimed
that her adopted mother had beaten her
to death.
y There was some evidence that the
mother had beaten the child on the day
before the death occurred but there was
no evidence that this beating had been
brutal or excessive. Coroner Keller testi-
fed that the Commissions and fractures
that were found on the child's body could
have been produced from a fall from a
chair. which the defendant has always
contended was responsible for the child
death. The child suffered from an inner
tied disease, the loathsome tendency of
which is to render the bones fragile.
The solicitor general. after the case had
reached this stage, was willing to aban-
don further prosecution and permit a
nolle prosequi to be entered. The court
was of opinion that it would be better to
let the jury decide. and a verdict of not
guilty was returned in few minutes
The prisoner was given her liberty. She
has been in Jail since the death of the
child.

SIGHTED SCHOOL OF WHALES.

Passengers ON Augusta Had interest
ing Experience on Hatteras.
Mr.. w. V. Davis. who arrived from
New York last night on the City of Au-
gusta, reports that on Wednesday morn
ing while just north of Hatteras the
steamer ran into school of whales. OF
which their appeared to be about hun
dred. There were so many, in fact. that
Capt Daggett said that in the thirty-five
years that he has followed the sea he had
never before seen such sight.
The whales were to be seen on all sides
apparently taking things leisurely, rising,
spouting, and then slowly sinking. One
that the captain and passengers estimated
to be about rs to 100 feet long rose within
ten feet or so of the ship and created
a tremendous amount of interest not un-
mixed with fear on account of its near
ness and size. The whales were accom-
panied by a great many porpoises.

MISTRIAL IN MURDER CASE.
Jury Couldn't Agree as to Guilt of
Frank Jones.

Jury Couiuh L agree as 10 OuIit OF
Frank Jones.
After being out nearly twenty-four
hours, without coming much nearer to
an agreement than it was when it first
left the court room, the jury in the Jones
murder case was discharged and mis-
trial declared, al 5 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon
The jury had been engaged since the
preceding evening in an effort to decide
whether Frank Jones, alias Frank Pitts,
who shot and killed William Newsome.
another negro, in a drunken row in Frog
town, was guilty of murder. or some less
er grade of homicide or had been justi-
fed in the killing.
1t couldn't decide There was evidence
before the jury to justify a verdict of
almost anything, from murder without
q recommendatio ton down to justifiable
homicide. and there were members of the
jury to pin their faith to almost every
possible theory. 1t is said that when the
jurymenr got through with their delibera-
tiOns eight of them We're for acquittal
and the other four were divided between
grades of homicide, but that no one of
the four was in favor of returning a ver-
dict of guilty, unless it were accompa-
MED by recommendation to the mercy
of the court.
They couldn't get together, however, on
any verdict and sent word to the judge,
in answer to his request for information,
that an agreement was not possible. On
this showing the foreman of the jury was
withdrawn and mistrial was declared.
Jones' or Pitts. will probably not be tried
again until the next term of the court.
The jury, while it could not reach an
agreement as to the merits of the MUIR
Ger case, did agree on another subject.
and embodied its agreement in protest
that was filed with Judge FaIligant. The
jury had a kick against the hotel that
supplied its meals, and declared that If
the coroner had got near the meat that
was furnished it, he would have thought
there was something about that demanded
his attention-and had demanded, with
out receiving it, for some time.
1--WE recommend the protest con-
cludes, that for the benefit of some of
our colleagues who will be up here later,
that the court order their meals from
the B. & B. restaurant or the Chinamans
or some other place"

DENIES THE CRIME.
Alleged Dublin Murderer stiIl Held
by the Police.


The Uaurens county authorities have
been notified of the arrest of lack Nor
gan, colored, who is believed to be wanted
for murder in Dublin. An account of
the negro's arrest by Mounted Patrolmen
Crosby and Umbach, at an early hour
yesterday morning was mentioned in the
Morning News. The prisoner answers in
every way the description of a negro
who murdered a woman in Dublin, and
then made his escape by shooting down
the sheriff.
Morgan admits that he is from Dublin.
but denies emphatically that he ever had
any trouble at that place, and laughs
at the idea of his having taken a human
life. He says that he was farm hand
up to a month ago and that when he
learned that he could make more money
in the city he came to Savannah. The
negro says that he is perfectly willing 20

What Colored Preacher Thinks
About Its Temperature.

Tor the glory of God did tighten IT.
10 satisfy the conditions of the text
1t must have two-fold Interpretation.
The figure seven emblematfzes perfec-
ton, but in this case infinite perfection.
since the light of the text is the glory
of God in Revelations xxi, %. The literal
Interpretation can but refer to that de-
gree of the glory of Cod provided for
the new heaven and the new earth,'
for be it remembered that no finite crea-
ture can any more endure the fullest
display of Gods finite glory than his
finite capacities would admit an infinite
endorsement of wisdom and power We
are driven to literal Interpretation OF
the text in order to determine the degree
of light allotted to heaven
Under the most favorable conditions
the thermometer has been known to reg
lister ll8 degrees in the sun. Seven times
this number gives S26 degrees, which. with
its corresponding degree of seven-fold
brightness, brings us approximately to
the knowledge of the ineffable glory and
temperature of heaven. In this caIcula-
ton we have no Scriptural authority to
leave out of the account the temperature
OF the literal day. Heat and light are
1nseparable. If the spirit of prophecy
has seen fit to reveal the degree of the
light of our future home by the means
of the light allotted to our earthly ex-
istence, who is he that would dare elm
mate the property of heat from the call
culation?
There are many passages in the Bibfe
that could be produced to confirm the
theory advanced that heaven sustains a
high temperature, at least seven-fold in
brightness and heat Of that Of our most
uncomfortable summer days"

A WARM PLACE.


Many readers will recall the famous
sermon OF Rev. DR.. Jasper, a colored
preacher of Richmond, on Joshua COM
smandlng the sun to stand still. He said
1T do move" else why did Joshua com
mand 1t to stand still Now comes Rev.
:: Allen Whey, pastor of the African
Metnooist church of Centerville, Ohio,
Wne has discovered that Heaven is a
very hot place. He proves to his own
satisfaction at least that the tempera-
lure OF heaven is S26 degrees. He proves
ms position from various texts taken
from the words of the Prophet Isaiah
ana from the songs of Solomon At the
request of the Chicago Tribune Rev Mr..
FlneX has written the following article
explaining his theories:
The prevailing high temperature of
this season is suggestive and forces upon
the mind the question whether there is
temperature in heaven, and at what
degree, for it's uniformity is admitted is
that temperature fixed.
For scriptural basis we choose Isaiah
Xxx, 26: Moreover, the light of the moon
snail be the light of the sun, and the
light Of the sun shall be seven-foId. as
the light of seven days. in the day that
the LORD b1ndeth up the breach of his
people and healeth the stroke of their
wound
The Interpretation of text, in order
to be faithful, must allow the fullest
scope to the conditions named nor must
truth be limited, sde-tracked, or explain
ed away by concealing it within whatever
hgurat1ve expressions may be employed
to assist It,
Here we get rid of both the literal
moon and sun, the latter of which is
substituted by another light seven-foId
brighter than the former. The key to
