GOLD FOUND TwIGGs.

Macon Telegraph: While prospect

of Dalzell in Twiggs county, Mr..
James Bull picked up two stones
which contained a good percentage of
gold. Mr.. Bull said nothing about
his discovery until he brought the
stones TO Macon and submitted them
to a jeweler, who is said to be an
authority on the subject. The jeweler
unhesitatingly declared that the humps
contain a good quality of the precious
metal. The stones were subsequently
sent TO an assayist. and a report from
him Ia expected at an early date. Mr..
Bulls discovery caused no little in

BIG FEES IN CUBAN CLAIMS.

Jacksonville Times Union and Citi-
zen: Advices were received from
Washington yesterday by Judge Geo.
M. Nolan and Judge Cromwell Glib
bons that the Spanish treaty commits
sion has made decision In the matter
of the claims of the Narcissa Sugar
Company ct al, which involves the
payment of about $4,000 900 in claims
and as agents Judge Nolan and Judge
Gibbons will receive about SITS, 900
each as fees that will go to them by
the collection of these claims After
the war with Spain claims were pre-
scented to the commission, which. I'M
der the treaty of peace with the Unit
ed States, had been created, amount
ing in the aggregate to $4,000. 000 To
all of this class the government set up
demurrers, the attorney general
among other things, maintaining that
state of war existed in the territory
in which the property described in the
petition was situated at the time of its
alleged destruction, and that the
destruction of the said property was
one of the ordinary casualties of war,
for which the petitioner had no rem
edy under the law of nations" On the
part of the Narcissa Sugar Company
Nolan and Gibbons, it was contended
that many of our citizens went to
Cuba when under Spain and invested
large sums of money in plantations
and other investments, and these citf.
zens, whether native or naturalized,
we're assured of protection in their
lawful pursuit by Spain" The latter.
however, either from inability or
want of desire, ever failed to keep her
treaty obligations" in this respect 1t
was further held by the plaintiff that
from the beginning of the trouble in
Cuba up to the act of Congress Great
ing the Spanish treaty claims commits
sion, the government of the United
States had but one thought in regard
to the rights of American citizens who
met with losses in Cuba, and that was
indemnity and payments: that 1t was
clearly expressed IN the protocols and
the treaty of Paris. In it's decision
now the claims commission overrules
the demurrer. laying down the gen.
eral principles that where proper aver
ment is made alleging the American
citizenship and neutrality of the
claimant and the ability and duty of
the Spanish authorities to protect
property, the claims should be. admit
ted for proof. The commission has de-
cided that no legal state of war ex-
listed during the instruction which
was waged in Cuba before the Span
ish-American war. Several months
ago ii was stated that the number OF
claims, including others than those
involved in the present decision, was
about 800, and that the aggregate
amount asked was over $60,000,0O0

SWORD FISH AT AUGUSTA.

Augusta Herald: If you were boat
ing with a young lady off Isle of
Palms on a moonlight night and
sword fish should jump into the boat
and then into the young lady's lap
you would be surprised, but not so
much surprised as if the sword fish
had entered your craft from the fresh
waters of Lake Olmstead Sword fish
are long ways from home when they
take to the placid waters of the lake
at the end of the Lake View trolley
line, but there was one in the lake last
night, and it is now at the Lakeside
Clubhouse. Mr.. c. V. McAuliffe, the
well-Lnown bookkeeper at the Perkins
Manufacturing Company, was, last
evening, out boating on the lake in
company with a visiting young lady,
little thinking of such things as sword
fish, when one of that species of the
finny tribe from the briny jumped into
the young lady's lap. 1t must be said
that the young lady showed great
presence of mind in not jumping from
the boat or even screaming Mr.. Nc
Auliffe captured the fish and took it
TO the club house. It is about feet
long and its sword about seven inches
long

The crop as a whole is in a condition

KILLED BY CIGARETTES.

Augusta Tribune: Frank Williams,
mail carrier No. 10 of the Augusta
postoftice, died last night shortly after
8 o'clock at his home on Magnolia
street Cigarettes are said to be re-
sponsible for Williams death, though
when he died he was afflicted with a
complication of diseases. 1t is said
that they were all, more or less,
brought on by his over indulgence in
cigarette smoking. Re had been a ci-
garette smoker for years, so long that
he had become a veritable slave to the
habit. He habitually smoked several
packages of the article daily. The
habit had brought on a stomach
trouble, which. coupled with the recent
severe heat, whiclS-he was necessarily
exposed to daily, brought on a general
breaking down.
