suit of the death of Charles Howell
Beazley, well known local attorney

unconscious for most of the time after
the accident until death came to re-
lieve him of his sufferings.
His death occurred this afternoon
about o'clock, less than day after
he had met the unfortunate accident
that caused his death. He bore up un-
der the sufferings that came to him in
manner that showed the splendid
manhood which he possessed. Abou,

consciousness so thoroughly and s
mind was so clear that he dictated
messages to several newspapers
friends and to Solicitor General J. K.
Williams, of counsel for the prosecr-
ton in the Childers case, which is to
be tried in Sumter superior court next
week. Mr.. Beazley was associated
with Solicitor General Williams in the
conduct of the case and sent a mes

After he had completed the dictation
Of the messages, Mr.. Beazley asked
the physicians in attendance to tell

is noted. l am opposed to prize fights
and bouts, no matter where they are
held. l don't care for this class OF
sport, because I don't think it can
do anybody any good. 1t should not
be permitted in Americus."
Rev, R. L. Bivins, pastor of the Fur
low Lawn Baptist church, added his
opposition to that of the other clergy
men of the city when he said: 4
don't think we need boxing bouts ana
Prize fights here. There are so many
ether more helpful things that W.
need SO much more. They can do no
good, only bringing hurt with them.
The possibilities for evil which they
carry with them is indeed great and
cannot be overlooked or condoned
These bouts are essentially brutal
and we want to curb the brute aid
Take better men instead. The young
men of the city can find better places
to go to than to boxing bouts"
Boxing bouts and prize fighting are
not things that can help the moral
tone of Americus," said Rev, J. Il.
Lawrence, pastor of Calvary Episcopal
church. 81 am opposed to such things
fer l can see no good in the profess
sional boxing bout, with all of it's at
tendant hurtful elements. There
should be no place for such doubtful
in the life of the city, and
steps should be taken to suppress
these things here"

His report, entitled ''The Geopsychic
Phenomena" has made q great stir In
scientific circles, owing to the bold
theses Of the professor, who depicts
humanity % mere vitalized barom-
eter, which reacts necessarily to the
stimulus Of external forces, but has
little Independent control over its
own movements.
Landscape. says Hellpach, is Of in.
f1nttely greater importance than ell
mate in forming national character.
The idea that climate is more import
ant is delusion. ''In the United
States the fantastic mountain world
Of the great west will In time create
different and much more imaginative
race than that which exists in the
level east and south. At present
Americas population is too much in q
state Of flux to allow Of this difference
being determined, but the change is
going on" America will thus in the
future have two populations of entire
ly different psychical inclinations and
characteristics.
Professor Hellpach gives a whole
series Of facts to show man in his
capacity as barometer. His activities
depend upon weather fluctuations.

There live peculiarly sensitive "Wet-
termenschen" (weather men), whose
whole nervous system is affected by
thunderstorms. On these tea, coffee
and tobacco, taken during thunder
storm, act with extraordinary force,
and the most moderate dose Of alco-
hol, which in clear weather would
have no effect, produces violent agita-
tion. and even temporary paralysis.
A second type of weather man is
the "snow man." we'll known to nerve
specialists. Shortly before snowfall
their eating. feeding and sleeping are
entirely deranged; and they are thus
able to predict a snowfall more surely
than can a meteorological with all his
instruments. "Snow men" are rarer
than Thunderstorm men," Both
quickly recover from the weather ef-
fects, and even feel better than they
did before.
In addition to weather. man reacts
to an enormous number of external
stimuli, some of which are far OF. In
tangible and even concealed from the
senses. Light has precisely the same
attractive effect on men as 1t has on
Insects. The word "moonstruck" is
not a figure of speech, but reality.
Moonlight has a marked effect upon
sleepers. and is the main cause Of
somnambulism. The changes Of the
moon produce precise organic effects
upon certain lower animals, and man
is also liable to be moonstruck.
Water, though, at a distance and In
visible, affects the nervous system and
makes some men conscious Of its Sef-
fects. Hence the .divining-rod" IL q
