MOONSHINE KING
OF NORTH GEORGIA
MIXES LAST MASH

CUMMING. GA, July 12.-Old La
fayette Larmon, the moonshine king Of
the north Georgia mountains, has mixed
his last mash Friends found his body
in Dawes creek. six miles from Cum
ming, drowned in his wagon. A dozen
Jugs of mountain dew in the wagon
bed told the story of old Lafes last
running of the revenue blockade. He
had been caught by the flood on the
way from his still to market.
Lafe Larmon was "a years old, but
his blue eyes were just as keen as
when he followed the flag in the SOS,
and in his hands the six-foot squirrel
rife held just as steady a bead The
revenue officers were never anxious to
trail the old man into his den, and
though his stills had been broken up
again and again old LATE retained his
freedom and kept on turning corn into
white liquor He had the stern re-
ligion of the Georgia mountaineer de-
seendents of the Roundheads and was
a regular attendant at the church his
father had helped to build. But he
maintained the right of free born
citizen to use his own corn for meal or
whisky as he saw it and he refused
to admit that the government had any
right to interfere He had been
"moonshining' for so years.
Dawes creek was swollen by the
heavy rains and old LATE must have
misjudged the depth az the ford, for
ne drove his mule into water six feet
deep Caught in the harness. the mule
was swept down stream and drowned,
and the old man evidently made nc at
tempt to leave the wagon and swim out.
Friends found him and the mule dead
together. washed against the bank, with
jugs of moonshine tightly corked with
corncobs, floating by the old mans
side.

SENATE PROBE Of
FIGHT IS DELAYED
Committee Not Certain It Has
Jurisdiction to Conduct Still
Byrd-L Hearing.

The senate committee which arraigned
Luther H Still Charles P Byrd and
Thomas Lyon this afternoon on a charge
Of fighting in the senate chamber last
Wednesday, adjourned the hearing a 1880
o clock until next Monday afternoon, and
in the meantime will decide whether it has
jurisdiction in the case
Still president Of the Typographical
union appeared in the senate chamber
with both eyes almost concealed under
swollen flesh caused by the blows given
him by Lyon He was represented by
Frank Hughes, attorney, who maintained
that the senate had no actual jurisdiction
in the matter. as the fight had occurred
after both senate and committee had ad-
iourned; that there was no contempt of
that august body shown, and it was a
matter for the state courts to decide
Byrd and Lyon were represented by
Robert B Blackburn, who insisted that
the senate committee hear the case, as
sorting that the mere fact that one of
the defendants appeared before the COM
mittee with brass knucks in his posses
sion constituted breach of decorum and
courtesy toward the senate.
One Witness Testifes.
The committee, President John NJ. Sla
ton presiding, ruled that It would take
the question of its jurisdiction under adj
visement and reopen the hearing Monday,
upon the adjournment of the senate II
consented to hear one witness. " O.
Foote, who could not be present next
week
Foote said that Byrd had approached
Still and warned him not to make any
more personal remarks. with the threat
to knock his head off He had heard
no profane or obscene remarks. He tes-
tihed that Still had the brass knucks,
which he dropped on the floor, and that
Lyon had picked them up and attacked
Still.
The hearing was the outgrowth of an
alteration among the three which arose
from Stills charges that the Byrd COM
pany had robbed the state in its print
ing contracts. 1t occurred on the floor of
the senate chamber just after the adj
iournment of the committee had had CON
sidered new state printing bill
