CLEMENTS WINS IN
 ELECTION CONTEST
MAYOR FROST IS HELD lNCOMPE. TENT IN THAT HE HAD NOT PAID POLL TAX AT THE TIME OF THE ELECTION.

Athens, October 4-(Special1-The fall term of the circuit court is in full swing. There have been but few cases called. The most important was that of the con- tested mayoralty case, where Col M K. Clements contested the election of Mayor c. E.. Frost, who was declared elected at the April election by .a majority Of one vote. The case has been long drawn out. and the matter was decided by the court without the aid of jury in favor of the contestant Colonel Clements. the court holding that MT. Frost could not legally hold the office because he had failed to pay his poll tax. The case has gone 10 the supreme court on this ruling. If the supreme court holds with this court then this ends the matter, if not, 1t will come back to be tried on it's merits as 10 H. legal votes.
 The first case in the history of this county where man is sued for damages for killing another Is now on trial. John Morris and his father in fight wrh E. r. Grlsham killed him more than three years ago The courts have been largely occupied with this case in one form or another ever since, and now the admm:s- trator of the deceased is suing John Mor- ris, Sr. for s2OOO0 damages for the mur- der of Grisham. MT Morris was one of the richest men in the county when this unfortunate trouble that cost the county one of her best citizens happened, and he has spent money by the thousands since and the end is not yet. He will be impoverished before the end, it is ne- lieVed.

Bucharest, March 25.-That the re-

is amply evidenced by the stories of
pillaging and incendiarism coming In

and troops. notably at Bacess, in the
district OF Vasiui. where 5000 peas

attacked a company Of soldiers. The
troops fired several volleys. killing
forty peasants an dwounding a large
number. but the soldiers were SO
greatly outnumbered that they were
