The Testimony Concluded and the Argument Be gun—To be Given to the Jury To-Day. Special to Enquirer-Sun. Hamilton, Ga., October 14- In Harris superior court this morning the trial of the case of the State vs. S. M. Dixon, charged with the killing of J. O. Christian, was resumed and tie testimony for the state completed. The defense introduced no testimony except the statement of the de fendant, after which court took a recess for din ner. The evening session was devoted to argument of the case. It was agreed between counsel to have two speeches on each side. W. A. Little opened for the defense in a speech of one hour and a half,which was an able and exhaustive argu ment. He dove-tailed the evidence to show that there was no malice or anger, implied or express ed. II. C. Ca meron spoke two hours for the state. It was probably the finest argument he has ever made, which is saying a great deal. Court adjourned till 8 a. m. to-morrow, when Major Parks, of Greenville, will resume argument for the state, and Gov. Smith will close for the defense. The friends of the prisoner are confi dent of an acquittal. He is » Southern Man. Recently some complaint has been made that the superintendent of the Young Men’s Christian Association building in this city was from the north. He was not objected to merely because he was thought to be from the north, but because it was thought that there were plenty of south ern men that might have been appointed. Mr. C. T. Walters, the superintendent, is a southern man, he having been born and reared in Balti more. He came to Atlanta from Columbus, and was for a while assistant superintendent of the new cupitol. He was highly recommended as a man suited to hold the position of superintend ent, and he is giving entire satisfaction.—Atlanta Constitution. The friends of Mr. Walters in this city, where he lived several years, can testify that he is a thorough southern gentleman and fhlly compe tent to perform the work that has been entrusted to him, A Burglar Arrested. On Tuesday the Enquirer-Sun mentioned the fact that the residences of Mr. E. W. Joiues and Coleman Davis, colored, on Rose Hill, had beeu burglarized Sunday night. Among the articles stolen from Mr. Joines’ residence was nearly 200 nickels. On Wednesday the police heard that a negro named Willis McAffee was spending nickels freely, and yesterday they succeeded in capturing him. He denied his guilt, but articles were found in his possession which were identi fied by Mr. Joiues and Davis. Davis also testi fied that McAfee looked very much like the negro who jumped from his window on the night of the burglary. After hearing the case CoLWilkiiiB sent the prisoner tqifM- 1 in delimit LILLIAN LEWIS. A Brief Sketch of a New and BcnutiPul Star. The stage of Springer’s opera house will be graced Tuetdiy and Wednesday evenings with,if reports do not lie, a very beautiful and talented actress. Miss Lillian Lewis comes to Columbus a comparative stranger to our theatre-goers, yet those who have read the dramatic columns of the daily press the past few months cannot help but have noticed reports of the very great success of this young and talented actress. Miss Lewis lias been scarcely flveyears uponjthe stage,yet durin;, that time has made a very flattering reputation. ■ first work of note was in the support of Jas. O’Neill, of Monte Cristo fame. She afterwards supported in loading roles Edwin Booth and the ln.e John McCullough, and for a season was the star of “Only a Farmet ’3 Daughter” company. Last season she became an independent star, and with the double advantage of beauty and talent became an instant success. She made the role of “ Cora” in “ The Creole” a version of “Ar ticle 47” her leading feature, and so pronounced a success was she in New York and Chicago that the press of that city pronounced her America only rival of Clara Morris. During last season Miss Lewis played the role Jive cousecuti weeks in Chicago, three in New York, two in Boston, two in Louisville, and a week each in Cincinnati, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Pittsburg, besides all the principal cities. She should certainly draw a Urn* house here, as she is considered b> Manager Foley one of the best attractions he has booked this season She i supported by a company said to be above th mge.
