CRIME In CHATHAM.
Prohibition Has Largely Decreased
Chine in That Coed County.
(CEatnam Record.)

Prohibition has undoubtedly diminished
cllmc in this county. This tact was HAS
trated at the term OF our Superior court
held last week II it had not been rof
| Tie homicide case ali the criminal dock
Ct would have been disposed OF il less
than one day. This is certainly good
showing Tor as large q county as Chat
ham.
This homicide case was caused by wins
key illegally obtained. 1t occurred ct 4
negro festival or frollc, where a negro
had some whiskey and fred the fatal
shot while under its influence. If it had
not been for that Whiskey he would now
be free man instead of being irt th9
pehitcntiary, and his victim would b.
alive
1t is certainly true that crime is on the
decrease in Chatham, since the Democrats
acquired control, notwithstanding the alb.
sulediy false assertion OF one OF our old
Fusion ofdce-holders to the contrary. And
i is also true that most of tn few crimes
that arc committed in Chatham are con-
nittcd by colored Republicans.

martes, al ir desempaquetar su globo
"No. T." en- terrenos de la Exposition
de St. Louis, halo la seda cortada por
48 parajes, variando las cortaduras en-
tre veinte pulgadas y tres pies de lar
90. Mejor dicho, la seda hab1a sido
desempaquetada en- la mafIapa, y pues-
ia al aire para que Sc secase de la hu-
medad de bordo.
Las cortAduras eran tiras sacadas de
todas parties del globo, y ell hecho ccu-
rrjo proba blemente, mientras Ell guar
dian, un empleado de la Exposition
llamado Gillian, estaba almorzando.
Cuando Santos Dumont vic 10 que
pasaba no pudo reprimir las lagrimas.
Erale impossible hacer la ascension
para competir por el premio el a de
Julio, y quedabanle muy Pocas espe =
