A somewhat remarkable eye dis
ease is at present prevalent in several
parts of British Central Africa, North
eastern Rhodesia and in Portuguese
Zambesia. At first it was noticeable
in cattle. sheep and goats, and only
recently was it found to have at
tackled the natives.
The disease is at present raging
from Port Herald, a British station
on the Zambesia, right on toward Tete,
a distance of over two hundred miles,
and at this latter place is reported to
be quite an epidemic.
Mr.. VIM. ArnOt, a traveller who re-
Gently returned from Tete, states that
he observed hundreds who were suffer-
ing from that disease, and a large
number were totally blind One of
the sights of Tete on a Sunday morn
ing is the long lines of blind people
who enter the town to beg, each string
being led by little boy or girl.
At first white spot is observed on
the eyeball, and this in short space
of time becomes highly inhamed, The
eye then discharges a white, milky
fluid and the whole of the eye becomes
covered with white film. This is the
critical stage of the malady, and if the
disease is very severe the eyeball
bursts, thus destroying the sight en-

SOMETHING LACKING.
MaSsa chusetts Deals Lightly With
BrHtes Who Assault Young Girls.

Massa chusetts Deals Lightly With
Brmtes Who Assault Young Girls.
There is something lacking in the
boosted civilization of Massachusetts.
In sections where manly men and wo-
manly women predominant brutal
felonious assault upon woman, and
particularly upon girl of very ten
der years, is regarded with the utmost
horror and punished accordingly.
But in Massachusetts a very light
punishment is regarded as sufficient
retributiOn for this atrociOus crime.
According to the Boston Herald, H.
r. NJ. Hooker, a negro man of Bos-
ton, was sentenced recently to state
prison for four years for assaulting
en-year-old white girl. The Massa-
chusetts law authorizes a sentence of
from four to seven years for this spe-
cies of assault, but it seems that the
judge thought four years quite sutfi-
cient. In Georgia a negro man who
assaulted a negro girl of that age
would be likely to be sent to the pen
itentiary for life. If he assaulted a
white girl of that age soldiers would
be needed to secure for him trial at
all In many southern states he would
be sentenced to hang.
Under the circumstances there is
point in the suggestion of the New
York American that the Massa-
chusetts Judges moderation will be
welcome to class of southern ne
groes. when, says that newspaper,
''they understand that they can as

tertiary negroes from the south will

for Campaign.
From the Cuthbert Leader.
A number of citizens of the county
met at the courthouse on last Friday
pursuant to a call published in the
Cuthbert papers. The attendance was
not large, but the meeting was bust
ness-like
Rev. j. 4. Thomas was called to the
chair and Prof. +. w. Childs elected
secretary. Mr. Thomas stated that the
object of the meeting was to devise
means of fighting the movement now
on foot to establish dispensaries in
the county He thought the first thing
necessary was to appoint committee
to direct the campaign.
On motion j. w. Stanford, r. d.
CrOZier and c.. L. Lanier were APP
pointed to name a committee to be
known as the Central Campaign Com
mittee. The following citizens were
named: Rev. J, A. Thomas, Rev. I. A.
White, L. A. Duggan, Cuthbert: Rev.
n. T. Pafford and H. A. Crittenden,
Shellman; Monroe Stevens, Shellman

bert, r. F. d. No. 3; j. w. Haddock,
Shellman, r. f. D. No. 3. This com
mittee will appoint subcommittee in
the various districts
The object of the prohibitionists is
to organize thoroughly and wage a
spirited campaign in opposition to the
establishment of dispensaries in the
county. Soon speakers will be APP
pointed to address the voters and meet
ings will be held in various portions
of the county.
1t ais likely that the campaign will
become lively.

WHO OWNS THE CENTRAL J?
LAWYER FLEMING SAYS THE LAW
is VIOLATED.
Claim Made That Southern Owns the
Central, and That Augusta South
ern Is Run to Suit Southern.


Charging that the Augusta South
ern Railway, which extends from Au-
trolled by the Southern Railway Com
pany, and that it's main competitor,
the Augusta & Savannah Railroad.
is owned by the Central of Georgia
Railroad. which said railroad is also
owned by the Southern Railway Com
pany. VIM. Fl. Fleming of Augusta
has filed a petition with the railroad
commission of Georgia, in which he
asks that the commission investigate
fully the ownership of the Central of
Georgia Railroad by the Southern
Railway.
The petition sets forth that the board
of directors of the Augusta Southern
are elected and controlled by the
Southern Railway, and that the road
is being operated exclusively in the
interest of the Southern, and that the
minority stockholders in the Augusta
Southern Railroad, Leonard Phinizy,
George J. Fargo and James e. Jack
son, want the railroad commission to
investigate fully the ownership of the
Central of Georgia Railroad, and not
to accept as final the statement on the
part of the Central of Georgia Rail
way that Adrian Joline, George Sher-
man and Alexander II, Layton own all
of the stock of the said company.
Their contention is that with the
Central of Georgia, which controls
! the Augusta & Savannah Railroad,
being owned by the Southern Railway,
and the Southern Railway controlling
the Augusta Southern, the state law
which provides that no competing
lines shall be consolidated is being
violated, and the minority stockhold-
ers of the Augusta Southern who think
they are pot getting their just dues
want the question of ownership of the
Central of Georgia fully determined,
so that individual citizens may better
enforce their rights and the public be
protected against the violations of the
! law.
