spectacle. The German Volunteers
had a prominent place in the line
which was lead by the German Cav
airy, an organization formed for this
purpose. Many who had been splen
did riders in the cavalry of the/ s ^l-
ser were In thia company of mounted
men and they attracted considerable
attention. Major Edward Karow,
probably the most prominent Ger

She Loved Well, If Not Wisely.
Atlanta, May 9—“I love Mr. Pul-
lian. He is the only man I ever
loved, and I want to marry him. They
may take me back home and try to
keep me from him, but I won’t stay.
He wants to marry me and I will be
his wife.’’ This statement was made
yesterday by pretty 15-year-old Jen
nie Iv.ay Parham, who J. Edward Pul
liam, an employee of the Southern
railway is charged by the girl’s fath
er with kidnapping.
The Parhams live about 8 miles
from Elberton. Miss Jennie was
taken there yesterday by her father j
who came here to get her. Her lov
er will be taken to Elberton to face
the charge of kidnapping as a war
rant has been taken out by the irate
parent of the young woman. Before
she started home in the custody of
her father, Miss Jennie made the
declaration that she loved Pulliam,
and would marry him In spite of any
body. They came here together
and were to have been married yes
terday.
The stern arm of the law, however,
gathered them in and they were held
until Papa Parham arrived on the
scene to take his daughter back to
the home in Elbert county.
KEPT PRISONER UPON I8LAND.
Negro Boy. Secures Verdict for $1,-
500 Damages.
Montgomery, Ala., May 4—Adam
Greene, the negro boy, of Limestone
county, who has obtained a Judg
ment for $1,500 against C. N. Robin
son & Co., of that county, tor ser
ices rendered during a year and a
half of involuntary detention on an
island in the Tennessee river, has
only one more move between him
and his money, that of an applica
tion to the supreme court for a re
hearing of the case. The applica
tion to the supreme court for a re
will go over It in a few days.
The story of the treatment of this
negro boy as shown by the records
of the court, Is one of great interest,
appears that he was sent to the
mil for some cattle and kept there
a year and a half and forced to work
whether he would or not, the alle
gation bding made that he was im
prisoned in an old shanty and the
boats kept locked so he could not
get away. The river is too wide to
swim and he was virtually prisoner
all the time.
The lower court gave a verdict
r $1,500 which was sustained by
the supreme court in an especially
able opinion by Justice Haralson. It
is regarded as not unlikely that the
United States court may take up tho
case and prosecute on the criminal
charge oi peonage.

approbation of man and the envy of
womankind. Dr. T. Felix Gouraud’s
Oriental Cream, or Magical Beauti-
fier, has received the blessing of
many, for, by Its aid, the skin that is
