LACE STILL THE THING.

Lace continues to be favorite trim
ming, but the select fancy inclines to-
ward the renaissance effects. Linen
dresses have appliques of the heavy
braids, while the duchess and honiton
braids are used for organizes, mulls
and mousselines.
1t is also noticeable that some form
of embroidery is almost invariably
combined with the lace trimming. For
instance with the coarser braid me-
dallions French knots or petit pois are
used to outline an entirely distinct de-
sign, though all is interviewer in the
lace. There is not a very decided con-
trast of coloring between embroidery
and lace-just enough difference to
differentiate between the designs of the
two. .al.A..k

Deputy Sheriff E. L. Craigmiles of
Monteith was in Savannah yesterday
armed with a warrant for the arrest
Of Harry Watson, alias Ed Ross, alias
Claus, who assaulted Miss Minnie
Johnston at Darien Junction some time
ago.
Though the warrant in Deputy Sher-
iff Craigmiles' possession charges the
negro with highway robbery the officer
says he has every proof that the ne
gro is the one wanted at Darien. He
has known him for some time. The ne
gro is native of Beaufort, S. c., A
few days after the assault on Miss
Johnston he held up a prominent young
white man named Charles Timbee on
the public road between Timbee and
Grahamsville, Ga, and this is the
charge on which he will be arrested.
Deputy Sheriff Craigmiles said that
he had located the negro and he left
Savannah last night to go and get him.
II know him like a book" said the
officer, land he is the trickiest negro
you ever saw. / notice that the papers
say that when Sheriff Longstreet Of
Wayne county fired on him while he
was standing on a tressle that the me-
gro shouted and fell from the tressle
as if shot. This is an old trick of his
and he evidently did 1t to throw hi;
pursuers off their guard. He is des'
perate character and if they had come
upon him after he had fallen from the
tressie the chances are that ne would

The County Commissioners of Wayne
county have offered a reward of $20(
for the capture of the negro, whose re-
voting crime near Darien Junction
is still fresh in the minds of the public
The Governor has added an offer OF
500 reward to that offered by the CON-
missioners in Wayne.
On the morning of July 10, Miss
Johnston, a young white woman resid-
ing at Darien Junction, on the Darier
and Western Railroad, was badly
beaten and then assaulted by Claus.
The crime was a most revolving one.
Miss Johnston was living with the
family of Mr.. Forbes at Oak Hill, q
station on the Darien and Western
Railroad. Early one morning before
the family was up, she went about zoe
yards from the house into the edge OF
some woods. While there she was
confronted by the negro, who choked
and beat her into insensibility. She
was dragged into the woods where the
negro left her for dead. Later she
was missed and a search resulted In
her discovery. She was carried to Da-
rien and given medical attention, and
at first it was thought that she would
die but at last accounts she was doing
well. If the negro is captured and
carried back to Darien there is but lit
tie doubt but that he will be summari-
ly dealt with.

mental Savings Case.
Norfolk, Va, July 23.-Federal Judge
Waddill to-day granted an injunction
in favor of the Monumental Savings
Association Of Baltimore against r. B.
Fentress of Norfolk.
Fentress sued the association in Bal
timore for $4,000, alleged to be due on
a stock subscription of $10O,0 to the
Norfolk Cold Storage and Ice Com
pany. The association entered a coun-
ter suit in Norfolk to recover $4,000
subscribed, alleging the subscription
was not to be effective unless a total
subscription of 100000 was secured
and that a sham subscription of $4,000
had been made to bring the total to
that sum.
The injunction forbids the moving of
evidence from this district and checks
the Baltimore suit of Fentress.

Why Not Help the "Boy ?"

hi-hA1 hNp ~fti4t i1Nos
To the Editor frequently read both
Of the papers published in Alma. some
times look on them with pride as TO
their sayings and have felt that at times
they had the interests of our village at
heart, but OF late must say that / have
been In doubt TO some extent, as during
the past few weeks so many small
Things have been said. Although they
may have come from some mighty pen,
have they done any good? l fear not.
Because you can drive nail with a
good hammer, it is not TO be supposed
that the average American citizen Is
built that way. Neither do / believe
any good comes from trying TO drive a
public official or heaping abuse upon
him because he has not done things TO
suit you. l think that some of the
correspondents are Of the old type and
perhaps did service on the long extinct
sheet, the Bay City Growler, for it
seems to come natural to them.
Now, Mr.. Editor, would it not be
better for that "Other Citizen" and
that prominent Citizen" to lend
helping hand 10 the boy" instead of
sitting back and finding fault about
something he has done? Plenty Of our
Boys" today are showing themselves
equal TO the emergency, and why not
help them instead of abusing them:
Criticism and abuse may be looked for
in an unsuccessful political campaign,
but should not be exerci sed in this case
But perhaps some of these learned
writers have had experience in this
line. We will admit that the present
conditions are not pleasant or desirable,
but who is TO blame: Is my neighbor
to blame If | am taken sick: / hope
not. Yet these men of brains p ex.
pect a health officer TO make diagnosis
OF everything drank or eaten by the en-
tire population of our village. In this
case ne should be second Pasteur, or
capable of running hospital at least.
But you must not expect that OF boy"
/ can see why some of the writers Of the
articles / have read are in such dread Of
this sweeping disease, az IL Is said to
affect the mental faculties very readily,
and perhaps there is just cause for
alarm in the case OF another Citizen,
as he may have noticed in his observa-
tions. There are men in this world who
would try TO buy an ocean steamship
who could not make the first payment
on canoe. These are the men who
exact unreasonable things of others and
find fault with them il they do not meet
with success.
Now | am not posted as 70 the profes.
sional ability OF our present health
officer, but have heard his gentle req uest
to clean up premises followed by com
mand in case of negligence. There
seems 10 be some common sense in that
and / am forced 70 believe that with the
assistance of many good citizens, and
perhaps Another Citizen" he may &C.
complish something and develop into

ALMA, AUG. 26, 1903.
To the Editor-In last weeks issue Of
one of Almas publications an article
was printed signed Citizen" couched
in abusive and insulting language, di.
rected pointedly at myself, relative TO
my actions as local health officer, and
dealing particularly with the fact that l
had written an article published in a
previous issue Of The Record.
This vicious attack came as a surprise
to me, as / had not at any time written
or had anything 30 do with any article
published. In this scurrilous article
the writer endeavors to leave the i'm
preston that it was written by prom
inent citizen. One would scarcely
think so after reading il Fanatic
think would have been more appro-
pirate signature.
His article intimates that lack Of age
is crime. His own vituperative
words illustrate the old adage, There
is no fool, like an old fool. " am not de.
sirous Of entering into any controversy
with anyone, but do not propose TO be
made the scapegoat Of some anonymous
writer too cowardly 60 sign his name,

fore making his attack / hardly ex-
pect an apology from an individual who
shows such "a lack of judgement and
common sense in the article written,

no doubt knows that his aim has been
instructed, should be willing TO correct

RURAL PHONE SUBSCRIBERS.
The following rural subscribers have
been connected up with the Union Tel

The Alma exchange, with the addition
OF these rural subscribers, has now over
$50 subscribers, and with the contracts
which the company now have on hand,
bids fair TO reach the two hundred
mark. The st. Louis and Ithaca ex.
changes, it may be added, are both
growing about as fast as the Alma
exchange, although the number of rural
subscribers on the Alma exchange is
growing faster than either OF the other
towns.

LITERARY NOTES.

The complete novel Of Lippincott's
Magazine for September is, THE Blade
that Won," by Burton Egbert Steven
son. 1t is ta'e of chivalric France in
which a gallant young hero, Marsan,
passes through adventures dangerous
and stirring enough to daunt faint
heart, in pursuit of fair lady who is
indeed worthy of the ordeal. Mr..
Stevenson shows mastery of the pic
turesque period with which he deals,
and his characters are living people.
