THE Lincoln journal is authority
for the following awful story:
At Hendersonville Saturday we
heard most horrible tale, which we
were assured upon the highest author
ity was absolutely true. 1t seems
that a merchant doing business near
that town recently received barrel
of syrup After selling several gal
Ions from the barrel the syrup would
not flow through the faucet. In
order to discover the cause. the mer-
chant knocked the head out of the
barrel and found in it the dead BODY

PROBABLY the last literary work
done by President Roosevelt before
the assassination of President Nc
kinley raised him to the Chief Execu-
tive office Of the United States, was
the preparation of an article on Will
liam II. Taft, Governor of the Philip
pines. This article was written in
August. and appears in The Outlook of
September 21st. 1t is particularly
noteworthy. not only as a cordial APP
probation of Governor Taft's remark
able personal qualities, but as in
measure foreshadowing President
Roosevelt's future policy with regard
to the Philippines, and as giving
strong expression to his personal
views on the relation of the United
States to their island possessions.

A SHOOTING AFFAIR AT ROME.

Bullets Intended for Judge Harris
by HaIstead smith Lodge in Bodies
of Negroes.
Rome, Ga, July 1S.-About o'clock
this afternoon, Halstead Smith, Jr.,
shot at Judge George Harris, a well
known lawyer. three times with
pistol The shooting occurred in front
of the court house, while the Superior
Court and the grand jury were both in
session. 1t created great excitement.
Judge Harris jerked a negro man in
front of him for protection, and he re-
ceived the first bullet in his body. The
second bullet struck a negro named
Robinson in the hand. making only a
slight wound. The third bullet went
wide. striking a house across the
street. Mr.. Smith was arrested by Po-
liceman Copeland and lodged in Jail
He was released on bond
The first negro was shot in the groin,
and the doctors cut the bullet out of
his back. The wound is painful but
not serious. The cause of the shooting
was some severe comment Judge Har-
ris made on Smiths character in the
prosecution of a negro for stealing a
COW. The affair is much regretted.

SAVANNAH AND DUBLIN.
Satisfactory Schedules Arranged by
the Central and w. and II. Roads.


Dublin, Ga, July Recommending
Sunday next. the Central Railroad will
begin the operation of passenger trains
to and from Dublin to Saannah. From
Dublin to Brewton the tracks of the
Wrightsville and Tennille road will be
used. For several days negotiations
have been pending between the Cen
trail and Wrightsvlle and Tennille
roads for the use of the tracks of the
latter road from Brewton to Dublin.
Last night in this city Supt. Holloman
of the WrightsVille and Tennille ana
Supt Noise of the Central road had
conference and completed all of the de-
tails. The statement was then given
out that a regular schedule would De
put on Sunday between Dublin and Sa-
vannah. Trains will leave Dublin at
545 a. M, arriving at Savannah at
about 1870 p. m. Returning, trains
will arrive in Dublin at S:45 p. m.
Commencing Sunday, passengers Tor
Savannah from Dublin can leave here
at 5:45 a. m. over the Central and at
II a. m. and 4:30 p. m. over the
WrightsVille and Tennille road. When
the extension of the Macon, Dublin ana
Savannah road is completed from Dub

choice of three routes to Savannah.
The decision of Hon. Fleming G. du-
Bignon not to become a candidate for
the office of Governor was received here
with keen regret by the people. 1t is
probable that no county in the state
would have given the distinguished
Georgian stronger support than Lau-
rens He is exceedingly popular here
and there is no doubt but that Lau-
rens would have been for him against
the field. AS matters now stand 1t Is
exceedingly probable that Hon. Pope
Brown will get the support of the peo-
pie of this county.
City Court Sheriff John D. Prince has
gone to Enterprise, Ala. to bring back
to Laurens county Manly Trip,
young white man, who April IL, 1893,
shot and killed Mr.. James ]. Hood in
this city Immediately after the shoot
ing Trip escaped and, though every
effort was made to apprehend him, re-
manned at large until a few days ago,
when he was located at Enterprise,
Ala, by Mr.. Prince.
1t is expected that Sheriff Prince Will
arrive to-day or tomorrow from Ala
bama with Trip. Few in this city
know that Trip has been arrested, 1t
being the desire of Sheriff Prince to
get him back to Georgia before his
Georgia relatives were aware OF his
arrest, thinking that possibly they
would advise him to resist being
brought back to this state. The ar
rest of Trip makes twelve capital
cases to be tried in this county at the
July term Of the Superior Court, which
convenes next Monday.

LightninG's Lively Work.
During a severe thunderstorm this

near Oulley, running into several
houses in that section and setting them
on fire. The fire was quickly extin-

several big trees.
A half a dozen young Yaldostans
