TRIAL FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER


 Mortimer s. Johnson, twenty-six years old, colored, was before Judge Dow in the city court yesterday on a charge of assault with intent to kill. The complainant was his wife. John son came here from New Jersey, went to the home of his wifes parents, where she was living, and attacked her with a razor. The state showed that the assault on Mrs. Johnson was most murderous and that she received three cuts on her left hand and a severe wound in the face.
 Johnson in his testimony convicted himself. He said that he was insanely jealous of his wife. He said that on the day in question she refused to talk with him at all, whereupon he lost control of himself and attacked her.
 Judge Dow found probable cause in the case and held Johnson in bonds of $2,O00 for the July term of the superior court.

Fine at the Worlds Fair.
fCont;prad from First nooa1

ace of Agriculture is a cotton
display contributed by the pro-
minent cotton merchants of the
state. In this cotton dome is also
full and complete display of the
sea-island cotton.
The Southern Cotton Oil Co.,
w. w. Gordon & Co., of Savan-
nah, and the Augusta Exchange
have made the special cotton and
cotton products exhibited decid-
ly the handsomest and most COM
plete of its kind in the entire
building. The central feature
of this display is composed of a
large glass fountain, flowing cot
ton seed oil at the rate of so gal
Ions per minute, and magnif.
Gently Illuminated by many cleo t.
rio lights of various colors, sur
rounding this fountain are four
plate-g1ass columns, Illuminated,
two filled with soap and two diff
ferent grades of cotton seed oil.
The general agricultural display
in space!74, practically in the CEN
ter of the Palace of Agriculture,
presents to the inquiring public
an absolute refutation of the idea
that Georgians do not, or can not
subsist on exclusively home pro-
| ducts. There are SO varieties of
hay, so odd varieties of peas, a
magnificent case of Georgia
meats and corn. showing that
hog and hominy" is raised at
home. A full and complete ex-
| hibit of grasses and grains of all
kinds, pecans, groundpeas. corns,
cottons, and in fact all things
that go to make up a complete
agricultural display, areirc1uded.
Very few are aware of the ex-
tent of the tobacco industry of
the state, and the exhibit in to.
bacco has excited universal adj
miration, not only from Geor-
gians visiting the fair, but also
those interested in tobacco man
ufacture and culture everywhere.
The George state building, as
is generally known, was built by
funds contributed by the differ.
emf cities of the state, the ma.
terial for which came from the
| Georgia Saw Mill Association,
under the direct supervision of
Capt. Fl. H. Tiff, of Triton, Ca.
The building is complete in every
respect; and attracts as much, if
not more, attention than any on
the grounds, owing to the fact
of its being a reproduction of
"Southertand, !" the home of Gen.
eral John B. Gordon, a typical
Southern home. 1t is the only
building on the grounds entirely
furnished with material made
and brought from home.
The Georgia commissions RS
esteem it pleasure and a privi-
lege to receive any and all Geor.
gians and aid them in making
the necessary comparisons for
their own satisfaction.

well yesterday.

Monday, is still out of the game.

will be made, as in former years, to

Lakaff, the pitcher, who has been at
his home in Delmar, Iowa, for Il week
with a sprained ankle. has returned to
the city. He is able to play.
Guy Dickey, who has been holding
down the bench for a week or more.
was again in the game for Indianapo-
lis vest erday. He had a hit, two err
rors and seven outs.
Nicors players have taken to hedg-

not slide back and forth to the de-

manager can do is to cross his legs.
Cassiboine shared with Thornton
the hOnors of the day, both in the
field and at the bat. His catch of the
long fly down behind the score board
was of the spectacular order, and his
triple was a daisy.
Those who have been complaining of
Thornton's poor hitting might find
degree of comfort in glance at his
record in Yesterdays game. Three
hits. a single. double and triple, in
four times at bat. is not so bad.
Thornton's work yesterday was
feature. He not only batted like
fiend. his record showing a single.
double and triple in succession. but
his running catch in deep center and
throw into third base was as pretty a
play as has been seen on the home
grounds.
