He br ught a letter of introduction to the governor from William Pledger, tbe negro politician, and In support of his story exhib.ted the lash marks. He recognized some of the men and gave their name* to tbe governor. He say* the men who beat him cnarged that be was getting up negro meetings in the inter est <5 tbe convention which Pledger ras called to discuss toe race situation. Tbe governor ha* nos decided what action to take in the premises. He ssys the reckless agitation of tbe race question it creating a great deal of unnecessary friction and trouble, and ought to cease. The governor thinks the appre hension of a race conflict is absurd, ad tbe talk of it needlessly inflames whites and black*. TH* MILITARY ADVISORY BOARD.

BENJAMIN GBTS OFF. A Ruling of the Court That Made Con viction Impossible. Orlando, Fla., Not. 11.—To-day’s ses sion of the court in the Benjamin case was of short duration. On the opening of the court St. Clair Abrams, counsel for the de fense, arose and said: “.May it please the court, in vi* w of your honor’s ruling of Sat urday I wish to withdraw from this case. 1 have the consent of the murdered roan's friends.” The court ruled Saturday to exclude evidence showing the antecedent relations between the partios. State’s At torney Beggs seeing the impossibility of making out a case under this ruling asked permission to enter a nolle prosequi. A juror was then withdrawn from tue box, and the jury and prisoner were discharged. KILLED ON A HUNT. An Attempt to Kaise a Clergyman’s Gun Results in Death. Rome, Ga., Nov. 11.—A sad accident oc curred near Cednrtown to-day. Rev. C. K. Henderson, pastor of the Baptist church, and Gabriel Jones went bird hunting this rnornlig. Rev.

Jonas was be hind the minister, and, seeing the muzzle of tue gun pointing toward him, attempted to raise tue muzzle with his hand. Rev. Hen derson, it is thought, had his finger on the trigger, expecting a covev of birds io bo flusi ed, ad when Jones raised the muzzle the gun fired and its contents struck him in the h rehead, killing him instantly. The minister is almost frantic with grief. Bills cure bilious and ner- DODGE COtJVTT’6 FAIR. The Exhibits In nil the Departments Highly Creditable. Easts as, G a.. Nor. 11.—Tb* second an noal t-ir't Dxize county ended Saturday. Tbe fair With u held last year wat the first, and was merely an experiment, bat it I indicated what could be done in tbs county, ■ and it encouraged and stimulated produc j tioa. Since that time suitable grounds hare been procured, buildings erec el, an association formed, and tae permanency of j tee Doige county fair Is now assured. Toe fa.r just closed was a succeas in erery par i ticilar, but toe one to be held next year will be undoubtedly a greater success. All things considered, tbe exhibits would bare done credit to some of toe Oldest and oes eount.es in Georgia. There was an ex hibit of corn that could hardly be surpassed in tbe state, being a yield of fifty-five bushels per acre. kaxct woodwork. Tbe fancy woodwork in Georgia pine would tare been a valuable addition to tbe sta'e fair or Piedmont >-i>iuoti. There were stalks of oxra which were enormousin s.ze and bight. Tbe sugar cane, sweet p> j tatose, cot Pm, oats, rye wheat, barley and turnips were about as fine as could be, and otcer agrieultura. products were excellent, Tbe apt les, pears, grape*, fig* and other fruits were a* good a any coo ty can boast oL There was one t. ring, however, to woleh tbe people of this county Deed to devote more attention, end tnat is tbe improve ment of their live-stock, for while the horses, cattle and hogs made a very credit able exhibit, still there is considerable room for improvement in this department. EXHIBITS OK THE LADIES. Too muck cannot be said of tbe exhibits in the woman's department. Without them the far would no: have been such a success. The jeilies, wines, canned fruite and vege tables, preserves, pickles, cakes, breads, fancy needle work, crayon, portrait, chi Da and >ll paintings, art work, flowers and household products were as good as could be found anywhere. In fact, the exhibits in all departments were to good to further particularize. Much praise is accorded to Dr. H. Fisher, the worthy president of the Dodge County Fair Association, and to those who aided him SALOONS AT OBLANDO. A Liquor Seller Fights the Council’s New Ordinance. Orlando, Fla, Nov. 9.—At a meeting of the city council on Oct 16, an rrdinance was passed prohibiting saloon* being nearer together than 4<X) feet, prescribing that there should be but one entrance or exit, and that cm tbe street; that there must be no pa nted window curtains, partitions, or anything of a like nature, with an object of obstructing a public view of the bar. This ordinance wa* to go into effect sh uld the “local option" election, to be held the next day, reverse the decision of the election of two years ago, at which time tbe “against selling" votes in the county outnumbered the “for selling” by 300. This year’s elec tion gave the “wet*" 650 majority. The question then arose whether the council had not overstepped their power la tbe enactment of this ordinance. A test case wa* brought up before the circuit court la*t Toeeiay in that of D. George Johnson vi the city for refusal to grant him a license owing to his location to sell being in violation of the ordinance, there having bc*n a license issued to another party to sell in a building just across the street from where Johnson deelred to locate. Yesterday Judge Broome granted a per emptory writ of mandamus and ordered the mty to issue the desired license. The court also decided that the city has no p <wer to restrict the distance that saloons must be from each other, or as to the num ber of entrances to a room occupied by them; also that the council cannot prohibit stained windows, curtains, or partitions, or a,/y obstruction of a like nature from being put up. The city will probably appeal from this decision. AT ALBANY. Tbe Residence of J. R. Forrester Ran sacked—Two Arrests. Albany, Ga., Nov. 11.—J. R.

The Second Liar Shut Out the First. From the Chicago Journal. “You may not believe mo,” said No. 1, “but what I’m going to tell you is gospel. Up at Silvw L >ko last summer I caught a half-pound pickerel. He wasn’t much of a fish compared with others that I’d got, so I threw him in again, first, however, clipping his tail into the shape of a heart so 1 would know him again, would you believe it# I have just come from there now, and I brought with mo that same fish. I caug t him again, but he gave a gre it fight this time, and no wonder, for he weighed between six and seven pounds. The heart shape of his tail was perfect, just as 1 bn 1 put it.” “I can quite believe your story,” returned the second young man, thoughtfully, “for I had a very similar experience myself. Last year at the seashore I caught an enormous bluefish. I had plenty of others, so 1 thought I’d mark this one and let him go. I didn't like to cut him, so I took a silver whistle that I carried ou my watch guard and tied it to the tail of the fish. Only last week, just before I left there, I caught the same fish. He was no bigger than he was the las;, time I had seen him, but the little whistle had grown into a fog-horn.” Oak, Pine and Lightwood.

One Taught Schoolboys Algebra and Another Played Classic Music A few days ago a party of some five or six schoolboys, on their way Lome, stopped in front of the home of one of their num ber. The conversation went from one study to another until it reachel the sub ject of algebra: her? i: ‘topped: one of tbe boys declared himself unable to perform a difficult prefalem in quadratics which had teen as ig .ed to him. His companions tried to help him, bat after all hands had failed it *f given up as a bid job. As old and besotted-looking individual who was shoveling coal a few doors a -ay ha l bee i watchi .g the boys for some tun - with a look of arouse meat on his grimy faco Afte- each one had tried and tailed, be slowly laid down his so jvel, picked up a piece of” coal, and, walking qu.etly up to the boys, request’d permnssi a to 1 ok at toe problem. Afar a good deal of laug - lag it *ii shown to him, and witnout say ing a word he quietly set to work, ar.d in a few moments uad correctly completed the example, writing it out on the pavement with tbe bit of cal. Tbe boys looke lon in wonderment, and couid ha dly believe their eyes, but were not slow to tak- ad vantage of the state of affairs, and in a few mements the w rk on the sidewalk had been transferred to pater. Tbe coal beaver in tbe meantime had re sumed his work, which was soon completed, and the last seen of him he was disapp rar ing in the side door of a salon. On another occasion a party of four men and one woman were seated in the parlor of a hotel not far from this city. Adjoin ing the parlor was the barroom. Leaning against the bar, leisurely drinking, were several countrymen. A: one of th- tables sat a tramp half asleep. His arm was curled up. forming a support for bis shaggv head, which was covered with a tattered slouch hat of ancient manufacture. Sud denly, through tbe half open door, there came the sound of music; the loungers stopped drinking for a moment, but almost immediately resumed their occu pation. Nobody noticed the tramo. At the first sound he had raised bU head from tbe table, and his eyes seemed glued to the door through which the music came. As it pro ceeded he rose and tottered toward it, but just as he entered the room the music stopped. All eyes turned on the tramp, who was making straight for the piano, which te reached a moment later. Lightly running his dirty fingers over the key*, sud denly he began to play Mendelssohn's “Wed ding March.” For nearly half an hour the tramp sat thus, playing nothing but the choicest classical muuc with a touch and execution that was itself a marvel The listeners sat astonished and ip silence that was not broken until t,.e tramp, rising from the piano, took up his hat, and, going through the barroom to the door, dua p peared down the muddy road.
