The news from the hour the convention

wonderful facility. The company

the best possible service, and the news

half an hour in advance of any other

I TRIPPED IN MIS OAME.
lom a Porter In n Dry Good* House
Robbed HU Employer* and Peddled
the Good* Through Hl* Pal* on the
Street.
E*rly yesterday morning a mulatto,
giving bis name as Cooper, called at a
store kept by H. Gabel, on Bryan and
Jefferson streets, with three suits of
clothes which he was anxious to dispose
of. Before making any terms, the shop
keeper, who recognized a picture of
Meinhard Bros. * Co.’s store on the tags,
suggested to Cooper that be leave them
there awhile until he bad time to
examine them and see what they were
worth, when he might return, and if they
could agree on the price he would give
him the money for them.
Cooper went away, leaving the goods
with the shopkeeper, who soon sent word
to Messrs. Meinhard Bros, to send some
one there and identify the goods which
had been eff**red to him. Mordecai
Abrams, a clerk, was sent and identified
the clothing. Meanwhile Cooper, instead
of returning himself, sent a boy, who was
detained for a few minutes and afterwards
taken bv Officer Wetberhorn to where
cooper Was waiting. The Utter stated
that the goods had been given to him to sell
bv another negro, who was in Meinhard
Krue. A Co.’s store. Mr. Meinhard, in or
der to test the matter, called a clerk to
the sidewalk in front and wrote on a card
to send the porter, Crank Williams down
the street with a package. Cooper was
then asked if he would know the man
who gave him the clothes if he should see
him again. Cooper said he would.
Mr. Meinhard and Cooper then walked
a short distance from the store and
stopped. Soon after W illiams came out
with the package, going in an opposite
direction. Mr. Meinhard pointed to Wil
liams and said: “Does the man who gave
you the clothes look anything like that
man?” Cooper at once said that Wil
liams was the man, when the latter wjws
arrested. Cooper was committed to jail
on the charge of larceny.
Williams denied the accusation, and
applied for an examination, which was ac
corded him before Magistrate Waring
Russell, Jr. Before the examination took
place, however, a search warrant was
issued ahd the room occupied on Gwinnett
street was examined, and a number of
coats and vests, several shirts and a num
ber of watch chains were found, which
Williams claimed that he purchased.
The goods were identified as having come
from Messrs. Meinhard Bros. A Co.’s
store, and from the adjoining store of
Frank A Cos. Warrants were accordingly
issued at the instance of both firms, alter
which the examination beiore Justice
Russell took place. A large crowd of
people, mostly negroes, gathered in front
of the court." During the examination a
warrant was also placed in Detective
Wetherhorn’s hands to search a house in
the country where, it was understood, a
quantity of other stolen goods are con
cealed. Justice Russell, after hear
ing the evidence, decided to
hold Williams on a warrant
charging him with misdemeanor, when
the accused tendered bail in the sum of
SBOO for his appearance for trial iu the
Citv Court.

Williams has borne a good character,
and the trial will determine the question
whether Cooper is the thief or an accesso
ry to the crime which he charges against
Williams.
Cooper was liberated from the peniten
tiary a short time ago where he served a
term for cow stealing, and it was thought
that he was endeavoring to shield him
self by charging Williams with having
given hint the goods to dispose of.
DIXIES DC ST THEIR RIVALS.
The Oglethorpe* Again Turned Cnder
the Sod—Canning Goes Back on the
Champions and Gets Hammered All
Over the Field.
The game yesterday was, with the ex
ception of the first inning, an excellent
exhibition of ball playing. The Dixies
went into the field laboring under great
disadvantages, Fanning, it is claimed,
having deserted them at the last hour and
‘Fitzgerald, the old reliable, being almost
disabled, though to see him play no one
would have khown it. In the first inning
the Dixies made four errors and that,
coupled with a two-bagger by Goram, al
lowed the Oglethorpes to score four runs.
The Dixies scored in the next three in
nings, the score being at the end of the
third inning 4 to 3 in favor of their
rivals. The Dixie 9 pulled themselvet
well together after the tirss
inning and playing with but 1 error shut
the Oglethorpes out eight consecutive in
ning. By heavy batting they piled up 6
runs on the seventh inning.pounding Fan
ning all over the field and earning 4 out
of the 6 runs. Norton pitched a fine game,
striking out 10 men. There were but 3
single and 1 two-bagger made by tlie
Oglethorpes. The batting of Lewis, Per
ry and Norton was heavy, Lewis
having 1 single and 2 two-baggers to
his credit. The fact that the Dixies
bad but one error after the first inning,
shows a fine fielding game on their part.
The Oglethorpes’ pitcher went to pieces
under the heavy batting, and the Dixies
outbatted and outtiekled them, winning
the game easily. On the part of the Ogle
thorpe* . Rossi ter, Sullivan and Cullom did
the liest playing. Hoggins, of the Dixies,
at third played a good game, and his fine
throwing trom third to first was much ad
mired. The lollowing is the score:

CLEVELAND THE CHOICE.
now THU NOMINATION WAS JIE
CEIVED "
Enthusiastic Crowd* Around the Bulle
tfn*— What Prominent Democrat* Say
About the Ticket —What the Nomina
tion Mean*.
When the news of Cleveland's nomina
tion was bulletined at the Western Union
Telegraph office yesterday the crowd that
filled Bull street gave vent to its enthusi
asm by cheering. It was a Cleveland
crowd from the sidewalk to the middle of
the street, except a sprinkling of Republi
cans on the edges, looking over the shoul
ders of those who were pushing up to the
windows where the bulletins were posted.
The crowd continued cheering as the
nomination was made unanimous.
Everybody was happy, except
the Republicans, who tried to face the
situation with a bold front, and declared
that Cleveland was the easiest man to
defeat. Instead of dispersing the crowd
increased. The bulletins in other parts
of the citv were surrounded, and
where little enthusiasm waa shown
there was a general satisfaction
with the convention’s choice
and a feeling of confidence that the nomi
nation insured a Democratic victory in
the fall. The adjournment until 5 o clock
to wake a nomination for ice President
caused a good deal of speculation as to
who would hold second place on the
ticket. As soon as the convention
met and the bulletins were posted
the crowds began to gather again.
When the nomination ot Hemlocks was
announced it was received with cheers.
The general sentiment is that the right
ticket* has been nominated, and that
Cleveland will lead the party to victory.
A Morning News reporter called upon
a number of prominent Democrats in re-
gard to the nomination.
lion. A. P. Adams said: “I am in
clined to think that the nomination of
Cleveland and Hendricks is the best and
strongest that could have been made. It
emphasizes the declaration of the Democ
racy in favor of reform, an honest and
conservative administration and a pure
public service. It will attract the disaf
fected Republican vote, and this I regard
as a potential factor in the ensuing elec
tion. I do not think that it will cause
anv defection in our ranks, but rather will
arouse the enthusiasm of our party and
will be indorsed by the people. ’
Capt. G. A. Mercer said:
“I have not looked into the matter suffi
ciently, and am not prepared to sav
Whether Cleveland or some other candi
date would make the best run. It Is a
question of availability, however, and I
presume he was nominated as the person
most likely to command success.”
Capt. Falligant believed Cleveland the
most available candidate of any that
could have been put into the field, nis
choice was Bavard, “out,” he added, “the
convention has seen fit to nominate Cleve
land, and the people will elect him. The
choice is a good one, and the nomination
is. without the slightest doubt, the strong
est that could have been made.”
J. L. Whatley. Esq., says there is no
doubt but that Cleveland is the best choice
the convention could have made. He be
; lieved the ticket a strong one and that it
would be elected.
Capt. D. G. Purse satd: “The nomina
tion is a strong one. Cleveland is a con
servative man, and_ his nomination will
tend to inspire confidence in the party.”
“Sheriff Ronan, when he was informed
that Cleveland and Iletdricks were the
nominees remarked: “Hendricks on
again, is he? Well, it is a good team;
but why didn’t they put on a military
man to offset Logan ?”
The Republicans profess to be happy,
and say that Blaine is as good as elected
with Cleveland at the head of the Dem
ocracy. _
United States District Attorney Darnell
smiled when a reporter asked him what
he thought of the nomination, and said:
“I am satisfied, because it insures the
election of Blaine and the triumph of the
Republican party; the nomination is the
best thing that ever happened.”
Isaac Beckett, Esq., another well
known Republican, said: “The nomina
tion is a strong one.”
“Do you think Cleveland can carry
New York ?” asked the reporter.
“Well, I don’t know about that.”
Gen. McLaws was not prepared to say
just what he did think of the ticket. He
knew very little about Cleveland, any
way, and couldn’t say whether be would
make a strong run or not.
The dependence of man upon wheat
bread for his best nourishment makes it
important that the bread be light, palat
able, easy of digestion. Dr. Price’s Cream
Baking Powder is the "best means we
have for securing those ends. A nation
of housekeepers have been using it for
years and found it always the same, pure
anu healthful.
What Do You Think He Thunk ?
“What do I think who thunk?” Why,
the thinking reflecting man, to be sure.
He dropped into a certain establishment,
and seating himself in a cool spot, the fol
lowing thoughts were evolved: That there
are lots of business houses in the land
that now and then blazen the walls and
the newspaper columns with promises of
extraordinary reductions in prices. When
you call—the reply is—“We have just
closed out that lot,” or else will show you
some cheap trumpery or other and en
deavor in a very unbibiical spirit to “take
you in.” Simon Mitchell Ua9 made some
"wonderful reductions in prices of his fine
clothing, but is confident enough to say
to you not to take his word for it, hut come
and see for yourself. He has a few more
fine Dress "and Business Suits than he
cares to “carryover,” therefore he is going
to sell them. Also a large line of Seer
sucker Suits for the hot weather. Mitchell
is in dead earnest, and if you need any
thing from clothing to a hat or collar, a
big saving is in store for you. Everything
represented squarely. “No satisfaction,
no pay.’’
That is what the “thinking man”
thought, and he thought right. Sign of

be for no good that he had ever done, but
through the mercy of God, upon which
all the reliance he had was based. Ac
cording to the sentence, Lowery wa9 to
be hung on July 11 (to-day), between the
hours of 11 o’clock in the morning and 2
o’clock in the afternoon.
the trip to the gibbet.
At 12:15 o’clock be was brought from
his cell, placed in a wagon, and, in com
pany with his minister, the Rev. Reeves,
and bis guard, was taken to the place of
execution, followed by a line of people
half a mile long. On arriving at the
gallows he was taken upon the platform
at once, followed by his minister, his
brother and a few friends. After a few
preliminary arrangements all the occu
pants of the platform knelt in
fervent prayer, the prisoner lead
ing in a "prayer lasting about 10
minutes. He was ioilowed by Rev. Reeves,
who pronounced a very impressive prayer,
lasting perhaps ten minutes. After the
praver Lowery stepped forward, and, in
a steady but "low voice, addressed the
crowd, confessing the killing of Brim
mage and saying that his life had been a
sinful one, for which he was sorry and for
which he had asked and hoped he had re
ceived pardon. He warned everybody of
their sins and advised them to do better
and try to conform to the laws of God.
warning his brother.
He spoke expressly to his brother, set
ting himself as an example of the result
of sin, and exhorted him to reform. After
Lowery got through bis address to the
crowd," he shook hands with his minister,
Sheriff Cook, his brother, Blake Lowery,
and others near, and announced himself
ready to die. He was commanded to step
upon the drop, which he did with a reso
lute and firm step, when the Sheriff pro
ceeded to tie his feet and hands together
and adjust the rope, etc. After all
the arrangements were completed
the Sheriff left the platform
preparatory to cutting the rope. On his
way down he called out to Lowery, say
ing, ‘-Fletcher, may the Lord have mercy
upon your soul,” to which Lowery replied,
“Farewell, Mr. Cook.” As soon as the
Sheriff reached the ground he seized the
hatchet and with one blow severed the
rope. The drop fell, and Fletcher Low
ery was lauuched into eternity, at pre
cisely 1:28, standard time. After hanging
seventeen minutes he was pronounced
dead by the doctors in attendance, when
the hotly was immediately cut down.
HE SHOWED NO FEAR OF DEATH.
He showed no fear of death whatever
that the reporter could see, not even ap
pearing as much excited as the majority
of the crowd around him Aside from
the screaming and fainting ol a few negro
women, everything passed off very quiet
ly. The body was placed in a coffin and
carried to the depot, trom whence it will
be shipped to Red Banks, North Carolina,
his former home. From the committal
trial up to last night every effort
possible had been made by Lowery’s
counsel to save him from the gallows.
There was a petition signed by a number
of citizens gotten up by his counsel to
commute his sentence to life imprison
ment, and sent to the Governor about ten
days ago.
Lowery is a native of North Carolina, and
a nephew of the celebrated outlaws of
that name in that Btate. The hanging ol
Lowery was the first legal hanging that
ever occurred in the county.
