The Baby was Poisoned.
A little colored child, about two years
old, died suddenly at Newborn, on Sun¬

Nothing unusual was thought of it at
the time, but later in the day it began
to be rumored that the child had been
poisoned by its step-father, a negro man
named Lee Head.
Coroner McCord wan sent for, and
held an inquest on Sunday night.
Afttr a thorough investigation of the
case, the jury returned a verdict of trtur
der in the first degree against Lee
Head, who is still at large.
It has since developed that Lee
bought nux yomica at Social Circle,
which he gave to the child with some
candy.

that some one of them will get it.
A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
Mr. Riley Stewart killed by Mr.
Henry McDaniel and His
Son, Mr. Sanders
McDaniel.
The Killing is Manslaughter.
Mr. Riley Stewart, a well known
young man, living in Rocky Plains dia
trict of Newton county, was killed in a
difficulty with Mr. Henry McDaniel and
Iris son, Mr. Sanders McDaniel, late on
Monday afternoon last, the 27th of May.
Mr. Stewart and the Messrs. McDan¬
iel were neighbors, and lived on adjoin¬
ing farms.
There was some trouble between them
in regard to the land line dividing their
respective farms which, it is said, was
of long standing.
On Monday last Mr Riley Stewart
w;i9 engaged in building a wire fence on
the disputed line, and had two colored
men assisting him with tiie work. Late
iu the afternoon the Messrs. McDaniel
came to where Mr. Stewart was at work,
and remonstrated with him about tire
location of the fence, the elder McDan¬
iel claiming it was on his land.
A proposition was made by Mr. Stew¬
art for a settlement of the line, by hav¬
ing a survey made, but it was not agreed
to by the McDaniels.
Hot words ensued, and a fight result
ed—all three of the men being engaged.
Mr. Stewart had a medium size claw
hammer in his hand, which he had
been using in building the fence, and
this lie used in the fight, striking each
of the McDaniels a number of blows on
the head,and bruising them very sev’ere
ly. During the progress of the fight
Mr. Stewart was stabbed in the heart,
and died in a few minutes.
There is a conflict as to which one of
the McDaniels did the stabbing, they
both claiming that Mr. Henry McDan¬
iel, the father, did it; while the negro
witness. Jim Cooksey, who was present,
says Sanders McDaniel did it.
After the killing of Stewart the Mc¬
Daniels went home and sent for a phy¬
sician to dress their wounds.
There are two bad wounds oil Henry
McDaniel’s head, and nir.e severe ones
on the head of Sanders McDaniel. The
evidence shows the wounds were made
with the hammer in the hand? of Mr.
Stewart
Coroner McCord was sent for, soon
after the killing, and an inquest was
held over the body of Mr. Stewart, the
verdict of the jury charging Sanders Mc¬
Daniel witli murder, and Henry McDan¬
iel as accessory.
Sheriff L. 0. Wright arrested both the
wounded men early Tuesday morning,
at their home, and brought them to jail.
The preliminary trial of the two Mc¬
Daniels was commenced at 9 o’clock
Thursday morning, before Justice John
P. Harris, and was not concluded until
about noon Friday, when they were
bound oyer to the superior court under
bonds of $1,000 each, to await the action
of the grand jury for the crime of man¬
slaughter.
Capt. J M. Pace and Judge E F. Ed¬
wards represented the defendants, and
Col. J. F. R igers and L. L. Middiebrook
the state.
The binding over of the two defend¬
ants for manslaughter was a proper
course for the case to take, as the grand
jury will have to investigate the killing
anyhow, no matter whether they had
been committed for murder or discharg¬
ed from custody.
The killing of Riley Stewart is one of
the saddest and most deplorable trage¬
dies ever committed in Newton county.
Both families are prominent ones in
their section, and both are well and
highly connected. A deep feeling has
been engendered, and both families
have been east under a de pand gloomy
shadow by the unfortunate tragedy.
May reason maintain its sway, and jus¬
tice be done to all parties concerned.
P. S.—Since the foregoing was put in
type we have received a communication
from Rome, Ga., which is a tribute to
the memory of Riley Stewart, but it
came to hand too late for publication
in this issue. It will appear in the Star
next week.

Death of a Good Lady.
Mrs. Mary Montgomery died at her
home in Atlanta, on last Monday after¬
noon.
She was the wife of Mr. Rufus Mont¬
gomery, and the mother of Mrs. J. T.
Taylor, of our city, and formerly lived
in Covington.
Mrs. Montgomery had been a great
sufferer for many years, but bad borne
her afflictions with Christian resigna¬
tion, and her death was not wholy unex¬
pected.
Her funeral look place at Social Cir¬
cle on Tuesday morning.
To her faithful and devoted compan¬
ion and children, who watched over
..c: so patiently and tenderly during
her sufferings, the Star extends sin¬
cere sympathy in their deep sotrow and
bereavement.
Our Public Schools Closed.
The closing exercises of our public
schools took place last week, with the
graduation of the “senior class” on
Wednesday night
The public examinations were well
attended, and great proficiency and
skillful training were manifested by alj
the pupils.
The schools have grown wonderfullv
in public favor in the past few years,
and the attendance was unusually large
the past term.
The gentlemen who Rreat the head of
the public school system of our city
have their hearts in the work, and are
doing all that could be expected of them
to build up anil popularize the schools,
and we bespeak for them even greater
success the coming year than ever be¬
fore.
As an evidence of the efficiency and
superior fitness of the old corps of teach¬
ers, who have bad charge of the various
departments of ocr public schools for
the past year or more, the board on
Wednesday re elected the entire corps
for another year, in which action they
have the hearty approval of our entire
community.
The Star takes special pleasure in re
f rring to the efficient and successful
work of our able school board, in the
management of the affairs of our
schools, and are Bure we but voice
the sentiments of our people when we
assert that the destiny of our public
school system could not be entrusted to
abler or more willing and earnest work¬
ers, then our present school board.
The public schools of Covington have
now become “an institution," of which
all our citizens should be justly proud.
Hard Times Clothing.
It is proverbial that “the best is the
cheapest.' Henee during these times
sensible people will buy as good cloth¬
ing as the price paid will permit. Eads
Neel Co., of Atlanta, Ga , make it a
point to purchase only first class goods,
that which is low in price and yet dura¬
ble and of the best quality. Some are
cheap as far as price is concerned, but
every article is tiie best, Save money
by buying from them.
Sweet Milk for Sale.
Mrs. M W. Davis has nice sweet milk
for sale at 5 cents per quart, at her res
idence on Railroad avenue.
This price is low enough for the hard
times, and you will find it cheaper th$n
keeping a cow*
a It Reminds Us of a Story. ft
The claim of the goldbngi? that they
are bimetallists “reminds us of a little
story,” as your Uncle Abraham Lincoln
used to say.
It is this:
In the good old days of the early set¬
tlement of Kentucky, a white man and
an Indian went on a hunting expedition
together, and the stock of their game at
the close of the hunt, consisted of a
wild turkey and a buzztrd. When they
returned home and a division of their
game was desired, several propositions
were made between them, but neither
was excepted. Finally the white man
said to the Indian : “You take the buz
zard and I will take the turkey, or I
will take the turkey and you can take
the buzzard. «« LJnaph! cried the Indian,
<< white man take turkey all the time,
and never say turkey once to Indian.”
So it is with the single gold standard
advocates. They talk bimetallism very
glibly, but they never once say silver or
double standard.
The fact is, the opponents of the free
coinage of silver are not hi-metallists,
but are dearly and unequivocally in fa¬
vor of a single gold standard or unit of
value. They never once say silver or
the free coinage thereof. The late
speeches of Mr. Carlisle and the action
of the Memphis convention clearly in¬
dicate this, and our people should not
be deceived by the claim that they are
bi metallists. The claim is a misnomer.
Speaker Crisp for Silver.
lion. Charles F. Crisp, speaker of
the late house of representatives, is for
the free, unlimited and independent
coinage of silver, at the ratio of 16 to 1.
There is no question about this.
He has been in fayor of the double
standard of money value all the time,
but the goldbugs have warped and dis¬
torted Iris position to such an extent
that lie lias been obliged to define his
position on the silver question in a card,
over his signature, which is couched in
such plain and unmistakable language
tiiere is no possible chance for any Intel
ligent render to misunderstand it.
Judge Crisp's card is so clear and
pointed on this subject, that we here¬
with reproduce it, so the readers of the
Star tr.p.y understand fur themselves
how firmly he stands upon this great
question.
Judge Crisp says:
‘ Bascom Myrick, editor Americas Times Re¬
corder : Ever since I have gave consideration
to the question, I have been a believer in and
an advocate of the free and unlimited coinage
of silver. Ever since I entered public life 1
have spoken, and when an opportunity offered,
voted ior it. I still favor the free and unlimit
ed coinage of silver by the United States in¬
dependently, at the ratio of 16 to I.
“How anyone at all acquainted with my
public utterances and acts can have mistaken
or been in doubt as to my positron, is a mys¬
tery to me. My excuse for this card is mis
representation my hope is that it will end it.

What the People Say.
Read what the people say about Dr.
J. A. Wright’s Beech wood Cough Mix¬
ture :
Decatur, Ga., Dec. 27, ’92.—Dr. J. A,
Wright : I have used two or three bottles of
your Beechwood Cough Syrup and it has al¬
most entirely relieved me of a cough that re¬
sisted the Oxygen Treatment Yours truly,
CHARLES W. WILSON.
I was troubled with a cough and hemorhage
from the lungs for four years. I used $18
worth of Dr. King’s remedies, and tried all
the patent cough cures in the market, but
could get ao rrj',ef. Finally I procured a bot¬
tle of Wright’s Beechwood Cough Syrup, and
rfier its use I fee! entirely well. R. L. GUF
FIN, Conyers, Ga., Oct. 19, 1891.
Covington, Ga., Aug. 7, ’91.—Dr. J. A.
Wright: I have used your “Favorite Cough.
Mixture” in my family with most satisfactory
results, and consider it superior to any other
cough medicine I ever used. I cheerfully re¬
commend it to any one sufcring with Throat
or Lung trouble. Very respectfully,
T. J. SHIELDS.
I have suffered with troublesome cough for
ten years. I have used every remedy I could
find with little or no benefit. Two bottles of
Wpight’s Beechwood Cough Mixture cured
me. I am now entirely relieved, if you
have a cough, try it, and be convinced of it*.
