It weighs 20(H) pounds. Jack King, a farmer living near Law- renceville, killed fifty pounds of rats in his stable last week. Deputy Collector Colquitt reports the seizure of two stills—one in Heard county, in t his state, and one in Randolph county. Mahania—and 3000 gallons of beer and innsh captured. Deputy Collector Chis holm was with him. tins Steel, a negro of Lawrenceville, took r strange notion a few days ago, to run himself to death. He started, and after running rapidly for some time, dropped to the ground and died. No cause can be given for his strange proceedings. While J. L. Spec res and Miss Maggie Brohston, of Madison county, were driving Sunday afternoon the horse ran away, throwing both out of the buggy. Speares was severely bruised, and Miss Brohston had iter arm badly broken. The buggy was smashed. The heavy rains in April washed up on tin river bank at Rivertown a wild potato forty-six inches in circumference and seven or eight feet ill length. A piece of it eighteen inches long, weighing seventy- five pounds, was shipped to tlie commis sioner of agriculture at Atlanta Monday. Forty-seven harmless and incurable pa tients 'were returned Tuesday from the ssvlum to the counties from which they wire sent. The male convalescent build ing at the asylum is now occupied by the class of patients for which it was designed. The charge of this building has been as signed to Dr. Harris Hall. A gentleman of Milledgeville was spend ing an evening with a neighbor a few days ago. At the supper table the hostess helped him to coffee in a cup which was one of a set presented to her by her guest on her marriage 33 years ago. It had been in constant use all that time, and was sound in all parts except the handle, which was broken. Governor McDaniel has Issued commis sions to the following members of county hoar ds of education: John S. Russell, Dan iel R. Proctor and Robert N\ King, Cam- deni county; Malcolm Hair, J. R. Short and W. J. Reese, Marion county: Thomas J. Coursey, M. D. Hughes and Alexander Morrison, Montgomery county; Stephen ('. Tate, John M. Alfred and William Thompson, Pickens county; William T. McCarthy, Whitfield county. At Covington Sunday morning, between one and two o'clock, an attempt was made to burglarize the residence of Judge E. F. Edwards by an unknown person, supposed to be a white man. The front door of the residence had been loft unlocked Saturday night, and the burglar had no trouble in gaining an entrance. Mrs. Edwards, who happened to be awake at the time, heard tiie door-knob turn and the man walk iu. She gave the alarm, and her husband on awakening, heard the burglar flee from the house. Some little excitement has been caused in Columbia county, not far from Augusta, among the negroes, by a report that a prominent farmer is making arrangements to engage a number of Chinese on his plantation and do away with negro labor entirely. The negroes have worked their imaginations up into believing that Chinese will supplant them in the south on the farms, and no little excitement exists among them. They fear the coming of the Chinese, and believe eventually they will have to give up their homes and move out. Inquiries fail to verify or correct the re ported Chinese movement. A Crawfordville correspondent writes : ' A party of ladies who were returning to their homes from the church met with one of the freight trains just as they reached the crossing. One of the ladies, out of pure love of frolic, ran alter the train, and, suc ceeding in catching the rear railings, she bounced upon the rear steps, and stood waving her hand to her horror-stricken frit nds as t lie train was fast receding in the distance. They watched her iu anxious ‘‘■.ispense, expecting momentarily to sec: hi r jump and lie. killed or crippled, Imt not so, for alter riding some distance up the i'aid she gave a leap, springing out in the ail, landing sufulv upon her feet. But it was a terrible risk, and one that makes me “builder when 1 think of it.” The details of l lie murder in Thomas county by Frank Coleman, of his wife, -1 ow it to have been singularly atrocious, fine victim is a daughter of Jesse Hooker, and it was on her fatacr’s place that the murder wns committed. Frank Coleman, whu hud been walking on Ihe turpentine firm of O. T. Hopper, came to Thomas- ville from Alabama a year ago. Boon afterwards he courted the daughter of -Jesse Hooker, the old foil - oleeclcd, and : runaway match was the result. The marriage was not a happy one. A few clays ago Frank's stolen bride left him end went back to her father’s home. He followed her and tried to persuade her to go back with him. Failing in tliin, lie hnocked her down wit !i a hoe and started to 1 tin, but changed his mind and came back, spreading out his wife’s arms, and pulling in r head hack, he deliberately cut her throat. Oldman Jesse was lying sick in bed. The mother of the girl witnessed the terrible deed, anil threw a hatchet at the murderer, lie then started for her, razor in hand, but a tierce* dog which be longed to the premises caught and held him back until the. old woman could gel mtn the house anil bar the doors.

Selma Mail: We are authorized by ntnttv readers of the Mail to say that they witl never again cast a vote for a man to'go to the city council who favors negro police. Selma, beautiful, prosperous Selma, is tin- only city in Alabama thnt tolerates such a nuisance, and it is a shame thnt we should submit to it any longer. This language may seem a little harsh to some of the members of this honorable body, but to such we would say, 'tis better to pet a ' poodle dog than a negro policeman. Colonel N. A. Flournoy, the former su perintendent of education in Colbert coun ty, has returned from California, where he went for the purpose of raising some mon ey with the help of his brother to make good his accounts. On his return he paid over $4010 on his accounts. He also made a bill of sale of his property to his bonds men. The supposition that Colonel Flour noy had left Alabama for good seems to have gained some prevalence, but it was ; all n mistake. He went away openly and with the consent of his bondsmen, prnmis- ' ing that he would return anil make nil hon est effort to get his official affairs straight J again.—Montgomery Advertiser.

Tiie second crop of oranges arc now to be found in many of the groves around Sorrento. Efforts are being made to give an excur sion from Sorrento on July 1 to St. Augus tine. The town council of Eustis has decided to Guild a jail, and work will lie commenc ed at an early date. S. L. Benham has received Ills commis sion as postmaster at Crescent City, and has taken charge thereof. The new 1000-pound hell has been placed , in the belfry of the Presbyterian church at Crescent City, and is the sweetest toned i bell in the city. ! Gen. Bentley’s new house at Seville Is nearing completion. It will be occupied by Mrs. DeWolf, from Wisconsin, who will : start a poultry farm. At Seville, Superintendent Bates is laid uj) with a very badly poisoned ankle. Per haps he will lie more careful in future about the color of his stockings. At Crescent City the loss of the orange , crop caused many to plant more corn, po- I tatoes, beans, peas, etc., than usual, hence ■ there is a good supply in that section. Preparations are in progress for the hold ing of such a fourth of July celebration at Eustis as will draw the people from all sur rounding towns to Eustis on that date. | Gas mains have just been luid at St. Augustine, the entire length of Bronson street from King to Bridge streets, and brilliant lights will soon flicker from orna mented posts. Land at Sorrento that sold for fl.25 a few years ago now ranges at $30 to 1100 per acre. Lake fronts are more valuable and orange groves bring high prices in this sec tion of tile country. Polk county is one of the best in the state; has six growing towns and it* tax able property has doubled in the last eigh teen months. There are four weekly and one semi-weekly paper published in the county, and they are all excellent news papers. Bartow, like all the rest of south Flor ida, is on a regular boom. Judge Hughes recently sold three-fourths of an acre on Main street for $11,500. One-eighth of an acre on the same street sold for $2800 four weeks ago, and the purchaser has since been offered $3500. So great is the local demand for lumber in Jacksonville that the various large saw mills are kept, running both night and day in order to fill it, and to get large orders delivered when the lumber is needed it is Accessary in a great many instances to put them in at the mills ahead. Around Madison farmers are working with a will to try to regain the losses from last yi ar’s failure of the crops, and in most eases I lie crops are. in good condition, though backward. Business is very dull in tin ;ni reliantile lint and clerks can enjoy fishing in the lakes near Madison. A Mrs. Diokcrnmn. of Ml. Dora, while returning alone in a buggy from Eustis, was stopped bv a large negro, who de manded her ninney.
