ABEL CONSIDERATIONS IN JAIL.
Marshal Hyers in Dying Condition.
Boisy Brown Safely Landed in jail
by Sheriff SVvindIe.

Boisy Brown safely Landed In jail
by sheriR SwindIe.
Triton. Ga, May 25.-The negro,
Boisy Brown, who shot and fatally
wounded City Marshal w. A. Flyers at
Abel Thursday night. was captured
yesterday at Pinopols. lie is a young
negro, IL years of age, and is not con-
sidered by people who know him to
have good sense, and is easily persuad-
ed to do anything. After his capture
he told the officers of plot that he
and six other negroes had made to kill
Marshal Flyers. The plot was to have
Brown arrested on a warrant by the
marshal, and when he went to make
the arrest, he was to kill him.
The negroes implicated in the murder
are nothing more than keepers of blind
tigers and gamblers, and Marshal
Flyers had worked up their case. and
was on the eve of making a wholesale
raid upon Them when they planned to
put him out of the way. The negroes
arrested as accessories to the tragedy
are Perry Walls, Kid Connolly, Joe
Scruggs. Louis Mcdaniel, Andrew
Gates and Philip Reed.
Sheriff Swindle has them all safely
placed in jail, and will use every effort
to keep them in the hands of the law,
through the people of Abel and vicinity
are very much aroused over the at
fair, and there is no telling what may
happen. Brown was slipped in the Jail,
and was not carried through Abel or
Sparks, or in ten miles of either town,
as he would have undoubtedly been
taken from the sheriff and lynched.
Sentiment is equally as much against
the other six negroes as the negro who
fired the shot, and further trouble is
expected by the sheriff. There are still
at large two negro women, who are al
so said to be implicated in the shoot
ing.
1T was reported this morning that
Marshal Hyers was in a dying condi-
ton, and ere this goes to press in all
probability Mr.. Hyers will have breath
ed his last.
Sheriff Swindle deserves much credit
for the successful schemes he worked
to make the arrests and the quick work
and safe delivery of his prisoners in

PRAISE FOR PAUNCEF0TE.
British Lay Much Stress on Part He
Played in Building Up Friendship
With United states.

London. May 26.-The deep import
ance attached here to the friendship
of the United States could not be bet
ter exemplified than by the unusually
sincere expressions published in the
London press at regret at the death of
Lord Pauncefote, the British ambas-
sador at Washington, and the high
elogfums of his career in the United
States. The papers this morning vie
with each other in paying tribute to
the inestimable value of Lord Paunce-
totes work to the empire in the diff
cult position, which, as the Daily
Chronicle reminds it's readers, is now
the most exacting in the diplomatic
service and quite different from the
time when Lord Stratford de Radcliffe
described the Washington legation as
very pleasant socially, but not re-
quiring any great talents politically"
Naturally, the occasion leads to the
reviewing of various thorny questions
Lord Pauncefote had to deal with and
some little resentment is still displayed
over the manner in which Lord Sack
ville-West, British minister at Wash
irgton from 1881 to 1883, was dismissed
But these illusions are only made to
emphasize the credit due Lord Paunce-
tote FOR the good relations now exist
ing between Great Britain and the
United States
The Chronicle says
HE will be remembered as the first
and best ambassador that this or any
other country ever accredited to the
great republic"
The Standard says:
Perhaps the most eloquent form
praise of Lord Pauncefote can take is
to observe that he left relations be-
tween Great Britain and the United
states so smooth that it may appear
ungracious to revive memories of the
time when they were troubled"
The Daily Telegraph says:
1T is not too much to say that the
last of the great ambassadors has dis
appeared. Lord Pauncefote will always
be remembered as the pioneer of the
supreme pact of perpetual friendship
between Great Britain and America,
which will some day be accomplished"

non-union teamsters will result in a
general tie UP of the packing houses.

A TWENTIETH CENTURY SONG

We tread better earth today
Than that the fathers knew,
A broader skyline rounds away
TO realms of deeper blue.
More ample is the human right,
More true the human ken;
The law of God has been light
To lead the lives of men.
he led our generations on
In mist or smoldering fire:
To more than all the centuries gone
The marching years aspire.
Across the onward sweep of time
We strain our vision dim,
And all the ages roll and climb
To lose themselves in Him.
we gaze upon the aeons past
4 blind and tumbl;ng surge.
And slowly, from the weltering vast
Behold a law emerge
The water seemed to ,heave and sway
In chaos undenied;
Yet not foam-fiake drove astray,
For He was wind and tide.
U Purpose of the stumbling years,
0 wistful Need and Hope,
Whereby, in all the woven spheres,
The atoms yearn and grope!
Flow through the wandering will of
man,
A tide of slow decree.
And merge our strivings in the plan
That draws the worlds to Thee,
Frederick Langbridge.
