Nearly Foot of Rain Has Fallen in
 Two Days.
 |, MERIDIAN. Miss, March 29.-Elev. en inches of rain have fallen here dur ing the past forty-eight hours. Many farms are under water, bridges have been washed away and railway traffic in this vicinity is at a standstill. An Alabama Great Southern freight train went into washout Thursday night near York. There is no travel on the Alabama Great Southern or the South ern railway between Meridian and Sel ma. Two trains are lost on the Ala bama and vicksburg, two on the Mo bile and Ohio and one on the New Or leans and Northwestern twenty miles south of Meridian. No trains have en- tered or departed from Meridian since Thursday afternoon. Several serious washouts are reported. Telegraph wires are down, ard some points are entirely cut of.
 Meridian is entirely cut off from the outside world, except that two Western Union wires are still in operation, and not a train is moving within fifty miles of the city. A fast freight on the Northeastern railroad is six feet under water, and the crew is in danger of being swept away. Efforts to reach the train by boats have been futile, owing to the swift current. Two re- lief parties started to swim and wade streams, out nothing has been heard from them since Thursday night. The water at Enterprise, twelve miles fo of eoiO inches an hour. There is no prospect for the resumption of traffic for two or three days. The southern section Of this city has been under three feet Of water for twenty-four hours, and many families have been forced to leave their homes in the lowlands and escape to higher ground.
 At New Albany the rainfall and wind for the last twenty-four hours have been extraordinary. The water in Tal- Iahatchie river has risen rapidly, wash. ing away the long bridge at the end of the town. Water has risen to the lofts of a dozen houses, and the inhabitants are on their roofs awaiting boats which lare being secured for their rescue, Trains have been abandoned. Thou. sands of dollars worth of damage has been done in the county, and the wa kers are still rising.
 A terrific rain, wind and electrical storm passed through Tupelo and the neighboring country. It approached rapidly from the west and did consid- erable damage in the town. The wind swas terrific, and blinding sheet of rain accompanied it The telephone exchange suffered considerable loss. Seventy-fve negro cabins and a negro church which had just been cQwpleted Exera blown down. S

Health Officer Hoadley Says It Will
 Be Taken Up Soon.
 County Health Officer c. E. Hoadley was in town to-day. To Democrat reporter Mir Hoadley said that the state board of health had notified Prosecuting Attorney Bradstreet of the district court that they desired the ad- Journed case of Dr F. J. Callaghan, for practicing medicine without a H- cense, taken up as soon as possible. 1t will be remembered that the doctor was fined in the police court some time ago and appealed to the district court. The case was adjourned to give Dr Callaghan an opportunity to stand an examination and take out q license. The doctor tried his luck before the board of examiners last month, but Tailed to pass, and now it has been de cided to push the case It is probable that the charge would have been dropped if the doctor had scored enough points to entitle him to a cer, tifcate.

IN THE SENATE.

The whole session was devoted to
consideration of the reports of the
of the majority and minority branch
es of the state prisons committee on
the investigation of the charges
made by Senator Kirk, of Johnson,
against the state commissioners
and officials of the Frankfort prls-
on. The evidence taken by the
committee was read in full.
On the taking of a vote on a mo.
ton to strike out the minority part
of the report from publication of it,
the Republicans refused to vote and
broke a quorum. The matter was
then made a special order for Mon
day next.
The Byron bin to authorize the
governor to APPOINT special Judge
IN cases in which the regular Judge
cannot sit, and the parties fail to
agree on a judge was adopted.
The Allen bill for counties own
ing turnpikes to condemn land for
quarries was adopted.

only intended to "scare" Foard
and that he had no idea there was
a cartridge in the pistol when he
pointed it at Foard.
Randolph is about 20 years old,
having been raised here. He has
long been regarded by his own race
as very bad negro, and his repu-
tation generally is quite unsavory-
When the jailer carried him back
to his cell after the jury had re-
turned their verdict, after a short
consultation, Randolph appeared
perfectly Indifferent. In fact dur
ing the trial he seemed Indifferent,
and the nonchalant air with which
he would look over the immense
crowd he seemed to regard himself
as hero among his race, instead
of realizing that he was on trial
for the highest crime on the calen-
dar.
Attorney Allensworth, OF the de-
Tense, conducted the trial in most
excellent manner, and his speech
has been freely commented on and
pronounced one of the best delivered
in the court room in many a year.
He was appointed by the court to-
defend Randolph.
From what we can learn there is
no prospect Of petition for new
trial being filed, aud we learn that
Randolph is satisfied to let the YER
diet stand. il is rumored that the
Commonwealth = Attorney has,
Since the trial. been furnished with
evidence that would in another
trial hang Randolph.

HIS HEART
Went Bullet From Pistol in His
Own Hands.
Well Known Ex-TolI-Gate Keeper
Commits Suicide at His Home
Near Elmo.

Mr.. Lawson Smith, a we'll known
citizen. committed suicide about IL
O'Clock last Sunday morning at the
home Of his mother, at Elmo.
He was alone IN his room, and
lying across the bed, when he shot
himself through the heart. Mem
bers of the family heard the report
of the revolver and ran into the
room at once, but when they reach
ed the bed he was dead.
The supposition is that ill health
was the cause of the act, as he had
not been we'll for some time.
Mr.. Smith was for a number of
years toll-gate keeper on the Hop
kinsville and Nashville pike, at
Wood mill, and was a man well
liked by the public generally.
About eighteen months ago he
was attacked by burglar and a
bloodless duel followed. Shortly
thereafter he moved to South Chris
tan, where he had since resided.
He was about so years old and a
bachelor.

BY AN lPSE DlXIT
The Governor Attempts to Re-
move Asylum Commissioners.

On Thursday Gov. Beckham is
sued an order removing" three
Democratic Commissioners of the
Western Asylum and appointing
successors as follows:
NJ. H. Carroll vice Chas. Knight;
John Chiffon viceJ. B. Walker; Jas.
d. Hillvice r. w. Ware.
The order makes a bitter attack
upon the commissioners, the follow
ing Incorporate language being
used:
"Their incompetency and disre-
gard of the duties of their offices
make their retention inimical to the
best interests of the Asylum, Such
failure and neglect in the perform
ance of their duties make their re-
moval necessary"
The power Of removing these Of
Gcers is not kested in the Governor,
the law requiring impeachment
proceedings to be begun in the
House, followed by a trial in the
Senate. 1t is not unlikely that the
matter will be taken to the courts.
