DR.. HATCHER MURDER CASE.
Testimony Very Damasing-Win
Probably Close Case Today.

Probably Close Case Today.
The case in which DR. G. II. Hatch
er, Henry Riston and j. II. Adams are
charged with the murder of Lizzie
Riston, which has been on trial for
several days in the commissioners
court, will probably come to a close
this afternoon.
Nothing but government witnesses
have testified so far. and from the tes-
timony adduced so far the government
has practically made up its mind to
discharge the defendants Riston and
Adams. there being no probable cause
for holding them.
On the other hand the testimony
against DR., Hatcher is somewhat dam
aging. II was proven on the stand
that Lizzie Riston had been in DR..
Hatcher's room the morning of her
death; had been in his drug store
also; she got up well that morning.
and when she came from Hatcher's
drug store she was seen to have a
bottle, and soon after took sick and
died. IL was also proven that Hatch
er made threats against her; that he
wanted to get rid of her, and much
damaging testimony was adduced.
The case will probably be conclud.
ed this afternoon.

 The subject is one of public im- portance, and the railroads can be trusted to settle it satisfactorily be- fore their leases expire, and the gep- eral shape and flow of population need not be interfered with. The Commercial Club is not moving in this matter too soon. The accommodations in the present station are becoming every day less ample and satisfactory, and the Louisville and Nashville sug- gests the best remedy when it sug- gests to it's tenants to get ready to move out.

FAVORS A. p. GORMAN.

From the Washington Post
 "I regret that l feel obliged to take issue with my fellow Georgian, who is quoted in the Washington Post as saying that our state is quite likely to send a delegation 10 the next democratic national convention favorable to the candidacy of William R. Hearst" said pr. J. L. Walker, a prominent physician and surgeon of Waycross, Ga., at the New Willard.
 My belief is that when the roll of states is called at the next convention, Georgia will be recorded in favor of the senator from Maryland. From expressions heard in a recent visit through the north and east I am led to the conclusion that MT. German is the logical candidate and by far the strongest man the party can nom- mate for the presidency. In saying this l do not mean to disparage MT. Hearst or discredit his popularity but it is ques- tionable whether he is looked upon throughout the country as measuring up to the standard of statesmanship that the democracy requires in its next stan dard bearer. Besides it is essential to choose man who enjoys the implicit con- fidence of the commercial world, and in this respect as in all others, MT. German seems the ideal candidate"

Camera Passing.

Like the bicycle. the camera is pass ing out of popularity said a dealer in sporting goods "A glance at comic pub lications will prove that fact to you, for jokes about camera fiends are becoming very scarce. A very few years ago every body was crazy on the subject of anna teus photography. Manufacturers of ko- daks and cameras did land office bus ines while we who sold supplies were fill ed with gladness. The fad was an ex- pensive one. Perhaps that is one reason it is diminishing in popular favor.
 Tn the long run high priced kodak was more costly than a bicycle, but not so much so as a motor car. In the first place a fine kodak or camera cost any where from S15 to s10O 1t depended upon the enthusiasm of the buyer After he got his lens and box his spending was just begun. Uusually it cost him round sum for wasted chemicals before he developed his first picture and after that he was compelled to buy more ma- terials constantly. When properly re- strained the camera fiend was a very estimable person. His pleasure was inno- cent, instructive and very entertaining but the promiscous snapshotter was an evil of whom the country is we'll rid. Even though they forage no more in hill and dale for pleasing landscapes or nn- usual situations there are many devotees of amateur photography who cherish their battered kodaks with fond recollections of good times they have had in the past"
