The criminal docket was taken up this after noon and is being disposed of very rapidly. Court will very probably adjourn to-morrow. We were glad to meet our next congressman, Hon. T. W. Grimes, whose genial face looks natural in our midst. We are also glad to welcome two of our former •citizens, Messrs. J. B. Shipp and Wright McCook, of Orange county, Florida, who gave me their names and subscribed for the Enquirer-Sun. They say that they have quite a colony of Chat tahoochee citizens, who have removed to that place, who are anxious to hear from this section of Georgia. A happy marriage has just taken place at the residence of the brother-in-law of the bride, Mr. C. C. Wilkerson, by the Rev. Ignatius T. Griffith, •of Reynolds. Miss Susie Moore to Mr. Ralph Johnson, of Stewart county. The best wishes of their many friends follow them to their new home. No cards. The trouble of our boys never come singly. To morrow evening at 8 o'clock, at Jcrnigan, AJa., Mr. Monk, of Aiuericus, will lead to the altar Miss Lizzie Scarborough, one of Chattahoochee’s most popular young ladies. Miss Lizzie was a general favorite with our boys, and it is with great alarm that we see them one by one taken away from us. We regret to hear of the serious illness of one of our old citizens, Mr. Wilson Gordy. Mr. Gordy is 82 years of age and is one of our oldest citizens. We trust that he may be spared for many years yet. The political cauldron has commenced to boil. It is whispered by the knowing ones that Mr. W. F. Cook, the present nominee for representa tive, is to have an opponent in the shape of an independent candidate, but no fears need be en tertained if every citizen will do his duty and put majority is 1123, Bray’s 822 .vml Weil's S10 **\ >M of ' interior than could have other- It will be suen that Clark Howell loaiL hl-U w ' se ivi >ule.” Possibly tlu> copping own ticket by 301 majority.

Rain fell just before the closing ofthe polls, and it was received as emblematical of the vie- tory of the wet ticket. A large placard posted on a tree at the poll*? late this even- ing after the result was ascertained at tracted much attention. It bore these words: “Fanaticism and cliques rebuked by popular indignation.” Tho prohibitionists claim that to-day’s vote is not a fair lest of prohibition strength or sentiment in Atlanta; that the ticket was not put out by the party, and I its personnel didn’t command the support ot the party; that many who voted against the ticket are staunch prohibitionists, and would have voted differently on a square prohibition issues; that while itlmny be u rebuke to some prohibition bosses, it is not an evidence that prohibition lias lost its hold in Atlanta. The anti’s declaim that had the proliibs won it would have been claimed ns a prohibition victory, an “ having lost they must acknowledge tlie defeat. They claim that to-day s vote represents the true sentiment ofthe people and the prohibitionists will never again recover from today’s sweeping defeat. (mini F|> tii!- Life. Atlanta, September 28.—Penitentiary Guard Turner arrived here to-night, with Hugene Beck, the man who murdered bis wife mid sister-in-law in Clayton, Rabun county, while on a drunken spree. He spends to-night and to-morrow in Fulton county jail, and will then proceed to Dade coal mines to enter upon ilia life sentence. Wind It Means. By Associated Press. Atlanta, Ga., September 2S. —The chief interest in the democratic primary which was held here to-day centered in the fact that an attempt wasmadeto mix it up with the prohibition question. Certain extreme prohibitionists formed an alliance with certain Knights of Labor some time ago, and put out a ticket pledged to those two interests. The rank and Hie of the prohibitionists protested against this effort to mix up moral with political questions. In the vote to-day hundreds of prohibi tionists voted against the alleged prohibi tion ticker, while many who votenfor the ticket did so under protest. The result was the defeat, not of prohibition, but of ob jectionable methods. ON 'CHANGE. \ Well llislrilndrii Business nnd Bliiier Prices, New York, September 28.—The stock market to-day showed a somewhat better distributed business, and prices were ma terially higher throughout the day than at the close last night. New England con tinued to be a feature, and its fluctuations were wide and violent, but it reached higher figures than have yet been attained on any previous day aud showed a handsome gain at the close. The movement is as much SAD AND HOSRiBLE. Tlim* IJiili 1 Ciiihlrea Bitten in Diuitli In a Bid* tlfHlllllir. Montgomery Advertiser. A sad and horrible account of how three little children met tlieirdeath conns from Covington county, near Andalusia. The reporter failed to learn the name ofthe children’s parents, but the family is well known and highly respected in that neigh borhood. The three children, ranging from 2 to 6 years old, went out in the afternoon to play. Near the house a large pine tree nail been blown down by the roots, and they were playing around in the hole made by the roots of the tree being torn up. The evening passed and at night the children were missed. The pa rents instituted search and soon found them lying near the roots of the fallen tree. The two younger ones were dead and the oldest was in a dying condition. Upon investigation it was found that the children had all been bitten to death by n rattlesnake, which had made its den under the roots ot the tree. Their bodies were terribly swollen, and looked as if they had been bitten in several different places. The oldest child died during the night, and the three little innocents were buried together, in their play they had aroused the snake and were bitten to death before they could escape its terrible assault. The Potomac Hivrr IteirattH. Washington, September 2S.— 1 The fifth annual Potomac river regatta took place to-day under favorable conditions of wind and weather. A light southwest breeze blowing up the river favored good time over the inile-and-a half national course, and also served to mitigate in a degree the extreme heat of the day. The four-oared gig race was won by the Columbias, of Washington, in 9:29j; loans, of Philadelphia, 9:37. The junior four- oared shells, the Potomcas,of Washington, won by ten lengths in 9:10:/; Aleyons, of Elizabeth, N. J., 9:60.

A correspondent writing from Arlington gives the particulars about the killing of Seabe Shef field, a white man, who had accumulated some property. He had no family, but was the father •of two illegitimate daughters, and also the father of a mulatto son by a negro mother. The daughters had married, and Seabe having takeu a dislike to his sons-in-law, had made a will leaving all his property to his mulatto son. He had received some threatening letters from some unknown persons. On Friday night, while eating his supper, the old man was shot dead by some unseen hand. The mulatto son has been arrested on suspicion, based upon the supposition that he desired to finish the old man before he changed his mind about his will, and also because the bullet ex way up, finally closing steady to firm.

GARFIELD’S MONUMENT. Prosper!** of a Scandal in Connection Therewith. Peculiar Proceedings on the Part of the Tru*- tees and the Contractor. Washington, September 2-1.—“When Senator Teller and Judge Joslyn were in the interior department 1 used to do a thriving business,” said a cider-mill man to-dav. *T)id they drink much?” was asked. “Drink much!” repeated the eider dealer; “well, you ought to have seen them. Secretary Teller would sit on that bench and let a quart go down in ten min utes. He was fond of a companion when he drank cider, and if it was Judge Joslyn who sat with him I was sure to sell three quarts. I remember Judge Joslyn coming in with an Illinois farmer. Evidently the judge had been boasting of his cider- drinking propensities, and a wager was made on which couhfc dring the most. •Let us begin on a quart bottle each,’ said the judge. The men sat down and the bottles were opened. Jos lyn liked it a little sharp. I was busy at the time of the visit, but in an almost in credible length of time I heard Joslyn say to the boy: ‘Two more bottles.’ Ten Cleveland, O., September Lb. —Strange minutes more elapsed, and I heard that as it may seem, it is a fact that it is almost . same voice: ‘Two more bottles, please.’ impossible nowadays to ao anything, how- | r fhe farmer protested, and offered to pay ever philanthropic and noble in concep- f or the four quarts if the judge would de- tion, without having it in some way '■ c ] are it a draw and say nothing about it. smirched by scandal.

The project originated more than wicked wink.

The judge drank his third quart lie fore he noticed the absence of bis friend, and after waiting some time for the farmer left, de claring he had scarcely begun.” said, however, that the house was tired upon some two weeks previous to his death and while the old man and his son were together in his house. Altogether, the killing is an ugly ana shrouded in mystery.

How much money was sub scribed, how much of it has been paid, ami how much will the monument cost, have never been made public. A contract was i entered into and work on the structure was commenced last October. About the middle of last month the public were sur prised by an official statement that it had bool determined on thf first of June lust to reduce the height ot the structure from W to 17.> feet, the reason given lining that by so doing fully $20,000 would lie saved which could be used in beautifying di> in terior wit h stai nary and other decoratio is. Naturally the proposed change and the se crecy of those having in charge ttie con struction provoked investigation.

I ! write this in the hope that others may profit by my experience.” Giollicr Sufferer. For six years J was afflicted with chronic rheumatism, part of the time perfectly ' helpless, not being able to walk at all. For a while my left leg was drawn backward until nearly doubled, it had a number of running sores mi it.. Physicians gave me , no relief. I tried ev« ry patent medicine recommended for rheumatism, being a druggist myself, but to no profit. At last I '•ommeneo.d tlm use of HwifVsSpecific. At first it seemed to make me worse. My leg was much swollen, and J had a physician to lance it. I soon began to improve. Af ter taking less than a dozen bottles of Swift’s Specific, I found myself sound and well for the first time in six years. That was five months ago ; I have left no symp toms of the disease since. I believe Swift’s Specific to be the best of all rheumatic remedies made. I commend it to all who are suffering as 1 have suffered. John It. Peel, With ('. 13. Obirichuin, Druggist.
