MURDERED BY CANyIBALs.-From
the South Seas comes story Of the mu :
der of German traders wife and in
fant daughter by Solomon Island canni-
balls. Although the crime was commit
ted last June the news was only brought
to San Francisco yesterday upon the
arrival of the schooner Neptune nom
Jaluit, Gilbert Islands. AtNew Britiin.
in the Solomon, Herman Wolff repre-
sented the German Trading Company.
With him lived his wife and little
daughter. Wolff had had no trouble
with the natives, and frequently left his
wife alone when he visited other portions
of the island on trading expeditions.
He was on one of these periodical trips
last June when the natives rushed in
upon the defenseless Mrs. Wolff and
quickly cut her down with repeated
blows upon the head, cleaving her skull.
Her infant was asleep at the time in
cradle. The murderers cut off the child's
head, fixing it upon pole that was left
standing beside the door, and after loot
ing the house and adjoining store, fled
to the bush. Wolff himself was the first
to discover the bodies of his wife and
child the following day. From several
natives who had been in his employ he
learned details of thecrime. Assisted by
fellow German, Wolff buried the
bodies of his wife and little child, but
could do nothing to punish the murder

which hides its head and exposes its

few people who seem to have gone to
the ostrich to learn logic. The most

SIZE COTTON CROP
TO Be ASCERTAINED,
Census Department Will
Help the Farmers to
Get the Truth.

The census department Of the govern.
ment is sending out men to secare an
agent in each county to report the
number of bales of cotton ginned at
each gin by the 18th of October, so a
reliable estimate can be made as to the
probable size OF the cotton crop, so that
spectators cannot by false estimates
depress the price as has heretofore been
done. We had call from Mr.. Jasper
+. Welchel Of the United States Gen.
sus, Washington, the other day who
was here for that purpose to secure a
Trustworthy agent to report for Cobb
county. This seems like it would be a
good thing for the farmer to reap more
for his cotton.

These are the enervating days, when, as
somebody said. men drop by the sunstroke

are iraught with danger to people whose
systems are poorly sustained; and this
leads us to say, in the interest OF the less

OF Hoods sarsaparilla is such as to sug-
gest the propriety Of calling this medi-
cine something besides a blood purifier
and t~onic,-say, a sustaining diet. 1t

assures refreshing sleep, and will without
auy doubt avert much sickness az this
time Of the year.
