Savannah, Ga, Oct. 24.-Captain
Hitch and Lieutenant Nell refuse to
discuss the findings of the courtmar.
tial, each saying:
Il have nothing to say at present"
The feeling here is that the findina
in the case of Captain Hitch was
harsh. There are rumors of soma
relief being sought through the civil
courts, but just what course might be
taken was not stated. The effect of
the sentences Of Captain Hitch and
Lieutenant Nell on the Oglethorpe
Light infantry, of which they were
the senior commanding officers, is
matter Of conjecture.
1t was reported some weeks ago
that round robin was circulated
pledging the signers to withdraw in
case the findings were unfavorable ia
Captain Hitch. This was held I'M
until the sentiments of Captain Hitch
could be ascertained.
1t is certain that he will disapproye
any such course. The discharge of
Captain Hitch without modifying
words debars him from holding state
or municipal office. The suspension
does not affect in any way Lieutenant
Nell, who is employed in the city fire
department as clerk.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures
colds and grip effectiually and per-
manently, but prevents these diseases
in resulting in pneumonia. 1t is also
a certain cure for Group. Whooping
cough is not dangerous when this
remedy is given. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance
and may be Civ en- as confidently to
baby as to an adult. 1t is also
pleasant to take. When all these
facts are taken into consideration it
is not surprising that people in for

this remedy very highly and very few
are willing to take any other after

HEART PIERCED BY SCISSORS.
Fatal Fight Occurs Between Two Men
In Atlanta.

Atlanta, Oct. 24-Sam F.. Ring, 10
years old, a German OarCeI, -
Central avenue, stabbed and killed
with a pair OF SCISSORS John ". ho-
pens, another barber, also 20 years
old and German, who boarded at 10
Spring street, IN TIE shop OF G.annone
Bros. IL the Piedmont MOTEL, at
o'clock Saturday morning. HOpens
died within FIVE minutes after he was
stabbed, the shears going to his heart.
Ring ran ont Of the shop and down
Houston st. esl. It is thought that
he will give 1imseif UP later on.
The fight wcs fierce, three large wa
ter Jottles hens thrown by the prin-
sipals.
The Gionrone brothers and a negro
bootblack were unable to cope with
the men, VINO fought first in the shop,
then in the hallway outside, where the
stabbing occurred, and again in the
shop after Hopens had been mortally
wounded.
Immediately after the tragedy men
in the barber shop gave out the in
formation that Simon Ring had killed
Hopens. In this way a report was
circulated that was erroneous, Sam
Ring having done the stabbing. The
error was due to the fact that Simon
Ring is well known among BARRIERS and
works in the same shop with Sam
Ring, his brother 1t was the latter,
however, and not Simon Ring, who did
the fatal stabb1ng
The quarrel between the two men,
which resulted in the throwing of bot
ties and a general commOtion in the
shop, was the outcome of differences
that have existed between them for
three months.

en- Mr.. Roosevelt the next congress
would be known as the two billion
dollar congress. He said that during
Mr.. Roosevelt's four-year term as
president the expenditures h ad
amounted TO twenty-siX hundred
millions of dollars, eight hundred and
eight million more than had been ex-
pended by Mr.. Cleveland.
He said that the United States is
now paying more to keep up her mil
itary establishment than is expended
by Germany. France or England, or
any of the European empires. He
then spoke along the lines of taxa
ton and said that the average Amer
lean family is paying tribute to the
policy of protection, inaugurated and
persisted in by the republicans, to
the amount of one hundred and ten
dollars annually and that the poorer
families are paying more than their
share of these unnecessary burdens,
and that the agriculturist living I'M
der foreign flags pays less for Ameri-
can manufactured products than our
home farmers. He explained the
''stand pat" policy as now being ex-
plotted by the republican spelI-bind-
ers and told what Mr.. Roosevelt
thought of our farmers in his speech
es of eight years ago. He denied
that the south was DISTINGUISHING the
negro, and in proof of our friendliness
towards him, said that we had paid
for his education the enormous sum
of one hundred and twenty-five mil
lion dollars.
The distinguished speaker paid a
fervid tribute to Ocala's hustle, pro-
gressive and indomitable spirit, and
said that if it was in his power to do
so he would have an appropriation for
her of half million dollars for
public building.
He again paid his graceful respects
TO the ladies and thanked the gentle
men for listening so attentively to his
remarks and took his seat amidst
very generous applause.

sPkRKMAH IN ocALA.

Saturday, was Sparkman day in
Ocala. Everything was suspicious,
the air was brisk and the sun shone
brightly, and besides the large num-
Der Of voters, a number of ladies were
out to hear him discuss the issues of
the campaign.
The distinguished speaker was in
troduced by Hon. r. A. Burford,
who is Mr.. Sparkman's committee
man for this county.
In his introduction Mir. Burford
paid a well merited tribute to Mr..
spsrkmsn's activity and industry
during his ten years of public service.
He said that Ocala was particular
Isl indebted to him for securing
FOR her an appropriation for the
purchase of a lot on which is Ill
timately TO be erected a public build
ing and the chairman took occasion
10 say in Mr.. Sparkman's presence
that Ocala was figuring on a half
million dollar building and would not
be contented with a structure costing
less than one hundred thousand dol
lars.
While Mr.. BurfOrd was speaking a
bouquet was sent to the speakers
stand for Hr. Sparkman which he
handed over to him in manner so
graceful and language so pleasing
that would have done honor to Lord
Chesterfield.
Mr.. SParkman responded in a most
pleasing and happy manner and said
that the flowers would be an inspira-
tion % him TO have his public life re-
feet their innocence and purity.
Turning from the ladies, to whom
he paid a most glowing and splendid
tribute. ne said he congratulated the
democrats present on the bright pros
poets OF democratic success. He said
that the democrats were more united
than they had been in twelve years,
which foreshadowed, he believed, a
sweeping victory. He said that while
he had no excuses to make for the
position he occupied i'm the campaigns
of ls96 and 1900 he could not refrain
from thanking the prodigals in the
party for returning to their fathers
house and he was willing that the
iatted calf be slain, but wanted the
whole democratic party to join in
the love feast which would be spread
a. soon after November Sth as re-
turns of the election could be re-
ceived.
He said that there was no other
place for patriot but in the dem
ocratic party, and no man could
once be a democrat and stray from
the fold and not sooner or later re-
turn to it. That it was like whiting
the air of Florida, the man who
once visited the state was sure to re-
turn again.
He said that the democratic party
ought to succeed because it deserved
success and the record it had made
during it's administration of the gov
eminent would show that it was new
er extravagant in its expenditures
ne said that the history of the repub-
hcan party was a history of extrav-
agance; that its expenditures for the
