man, and her condition can but
incite public sympathy.
The case excited public inter
est to such a high degree that on
yesterday DISPATCH reporter
made an effort to obtain the full
details concerning the affair and
to find outflow Suggs succeeded
in securing the poison which
ended his life, II was learned
that early in the afternoon he
entered Streets drug store
and endeavored 70 purchase a
bottle of laudanum, but Mr.. S.
B. Street, Jr.. who was on duty
at the time, saw his condition
and refused to sell him the drug,
although there is no law against
the sale of laudanum in this
State. the matter being left en-
tirely to the discretion of the
druggist. Mr.. Street was so
impressed with Sugg's condition
that after the drunken man had
left his store be notified Capt.
Munger. of the city police. Capt.
Munger had Suggs searched,
and found on his person 3 bottle
of laudanum. which was taken
away from him and turned over
to w. NJ. HOOts, who had been in
employ Of the dead man, Soon
after the medicine had been
taken away from him, Suggs
called George Lindsay, negro
boy who works in a shop nearby,
and saying that he was suffering
with cramps sent him for a bot
tie of laudanum. The boy when
interrogated by the reporter
stated that he bought the lauda-
mum at Fl. Osborne's drug store,
and the label on the bottle bears
him out in the statement. No
blame attaches to this establish
ment, however, as the drug was
sold for medicinal pur poses.
Suggs' remains were buried
yesterday afternoon, the funeral
having taken place at 3 80 p. IA.

CIRCUIT COURT CONvENES.
The Tribunal Organized and the Grand
Jury Charged by Judge Sykes.
List of Cases Disposed of Up
to Yesterday Afternoon.

The fall term of Circuit { ourt
convened Monday with Judge E.
o. Sykes presiding and Hon.
Geo. I. Mitchell as district at
torney. It was 10 o'clock when
Sheriff Eggleston formally
opened court, and the remainder
of the forenoon was spent in the
selection of the grand and petty
juries and in Judge Sykes
charge TO the former body.
Judge Sykes delivered this
charge in his usual clear and
forciable manner, cautioning the
mem bers of the body to care
fully and thor oughly investigate
every case that is brought before
them, and directing special at
tention to the laws regarding
the illicit sale Of whisky and the
carrying of concealed weapons.
He urged that extreme dill
gence be exercised IN these mat
ters. and ventured the hope that
all mem bers of the grand jury
would do everything in their
power to secure sufficient evi-
dence on which to base indict-
mentS in every case where the
law has been in any manner yio-
lated.
Both the state and civil dockets
are unusually heavy, and the
term promises to be one of
unusually interest. There is
such a vast amount of business
to be disposed of that Sheriff
Eggleston and Circuit Clerk
Gunter are both overrun with
work. In fact Mr. Gunter has
so much work on hand that he
has been compelled to employ
two assistants, and has both

Beverly Matthews helping him
with his work. Both these gen
tlemen are efficient office men,
and together with the other Off
cials are doing everything posi-
BILE to facilitate the business.
