A VERY QUIET ELECTION.
GSORGIA’S SOVEREIGNS AT THE
POLLS YiSTBKUaT.
No Opposition to tbe State Ticket and
a Llaht Vote Cast The Alliance
Will Have More Than Two-Thirds
of the Assembly—Returns From the
Counties.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. I.—The election bdd
in Georgia to-day was for governor, state
house officers, members of the ger.eral
assembly and two amendments to the* state
constitution. W. J. Northen was elected
governor without opposition; also R. I .
Hardeman, treasurer; W. A. right, con
troller general: H. T. Nesbitt, commissioner
of agriculture, ana Phil Cook, secretary of
state. All these are nominees of the state
democratic convention.
One of the amendments to the constitu
tion voted oq authorizes the legislature
to pension indigent widows of confederate
veterans disabled or killed in the service,
provided such widows have remained un
married. The other amendment changes
the method of reading bills in the legisla
ture by requiring that second reading shall
be by caption only. As it now stands all
bills are required to be read in full three
times in both houses.
The state legislature will be overwhelm
ingly comp Srd of the Farmers’ Alliance,
the joint vote in both houses being more
than two-thirds alliance.
The legislature will elect a United States
senator to succeed Joseph E. Brown.
The indications are that the vote through
out the state is very light.
Later returns show that the fulll demo
cratic ticket was elected by the usual
beavv majority there being practically
no opposition. Both constitutional
amendments have probably been carried.
The general assembly is three-fourths
alliance.
COWETA COUNTY.
Gainesville, Ga., Oct. I.— Snelson’s
majoritv over Hon. J. M. Lovell in this
precinct was 30. The alliance had a secret
understanding to run T. H. Maddox for the
purpose of defeating Hon. W. Y. Atkinson
for the legislature, and possibly ill elect
him. His candidacy was unknown till
vesterdav afternoon except to the initiated.
This action is denounced by many good
alliancemen. Reese Wilkinson, a negro,
was voted for by the negroes. The attempt
to defeat Atkinson with Maddox will injure
Moses for congress.

from all precincts gives the following re
sult for state senator: J. M. Terrell. 1,546;
AJ. Snelson, 1,084. For representative:

majority.

tion in Glynn county was the most exciting

dates for the legislature, Hon. Harry F.
Dunwody on the straight democratic ticket,
and John J. Spears on the independent re
publican. The democrats thought in the
morning there was a good chance for
B['ars, but when the tickets were distrib
uted they saw different. The vote stands:
For senator, T. W. Lamb, 1,175; Anthony
"Wilson (colored) 181; majority 994. For

elected.

ton, but Todd will overcome it by 400 in
Cobb and 500 in Clayton. Power, the inde

lant. In the Rome district Seay got 919

sonian ticket.
HIS VOTE REFUSED.
Gen. Phil Cook Hasan Unpleasant Ex
perience.
Atlanta, G a., Oct. I.— Gen. Phil Cook,
the veteran secretary of state, had au un
pleasant experience this morning. He
went to the polls to vote, but owing to an
error his name had been left off the regis
tration list, although he had registered.
For this reason his vote was refused and
the general went back to the state house
grieving over the good democratic vote
wasted. He has lived in Georgia all
his life of 73 years and held
numerous positions of honor, and has voted
the democrat ticket ever since he was 21,
aud this is the first time his vote has ever
been refused.
Although in very feeble health Senator
Brown was driven to the polls in a carriage
about 12 o’clock, and cast his ballot for tne
regular democratic nominees.

KILL.ISU HIS ASSAILANT.
A White School Boy Fatally Stabs an
11-Year-Old Negro Boy.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 1. —Marshall Coles,
a negro school boy 11 year old, was stabbed
to death with a pocket knife this afternoon
Ly Charles Blackstock, a white .school boy
the same age. The boy Charlie was
on his way from school. After
seeing .his 5-year-old sister from
school to the home of a friend,
where she was to spend the night, he was
met by Marshall and a large crowd of col
ered boys and girls, all going home from
their school, not far distant. They began
pushing him and pelting him, and then
Marshall shoved him off the sidewalk,
throwing him down in the mud. The boy
rose, pulled his pocket-knife, and began
slashing at his assailants who crowded
around him, striking him with their fists.
Marshall Coles was cut in the neck and
breast and fell mortally wounded, dying in
fifteen minutes. Blackstock retreated, not
knowing that he had killed the negro, aud
went to his home where he was arrested.
Marshall Cole the dead boy has been taught
by his fathor to hate the whites aud never
lost an opportunity of throwing a rock at a
white boy unobserved.
ACTIVE TRADING IN SILVER.
The Sharp Upward Turn in Prices a
Matter of Surprise.
New York, Oct. I.—Trading in silver
certificates was very heavy to-day, 1,190,-
000 ounces being sold in the New York
Stock Exchange, and thore was an equally
heavy business between brokers outside.
The sharp change in tho situation since
yesterday morning was a decided surprise.
At oue time yesterday the prospect
appeared decidedly unfavorable. One of
the most prominent German houses sold
nearly 1,000,000 ounces and forced the price
down to 109%. It was said that this selling
was for tne account of a pool which
had been carrying a large block
down from around 119. and silver
dealers say that when this silver waR known
to have beeu sold they were willing to
begin buying again, and buying orders
cauie in from many sources to-day carrying
the price up to 114>£. Rumors are current
that the advance was caused by the pur
chases of a big bull pool, but these reports
were not believed aud brokers active iu the
recent grading ascribe the im
provement first to the removal of
pressure hanging over the market;
second, to the higher market in London,
whoro an advance of 1% pence is reported,
and third, tj the purchase by government
for account of the October quota under the
new silver bill. United States officials be
lieve that the decline which ended yester
day was the work of London operators,
who depressed the market for silver in
order to make bolter terms in their semi
annual Indian settlements, which begin
to-day.

THE PHONOGRAPH OLD.
A Frenchman’s Book Shows Its Use
Two Hundred Years Ago.
Baronets Althea Salvador's Paris Letter.
’•There is nothing new under the sun!”
one cannot help exclaiming after reading
the proofs of Louis Pauliat, senator, that
the phonograph was known in 1650. In
this year Cyrano de Bergerac, au author
and famous duelist, wrote “A Jour >ey in
the Moon.” His guide, obliged to leave him
some moments, lends him two books, and
Cyrano de Bergerac takes one which has a
cover like a box. Here is the description:
“At the opening of the b>x I found, I
know not what, in metal, full of little
springs and imperceptible machines. It is
a book, but a miraculous book, with neither
leaves nor character-; it is a bo ik to read
which eyes are useless, for one needs only
ears. When I wished to read I bound the
box with all kinds of little nerves that I
found, then 1 turned tho needle on the chap
ter to which J wished to listen, aud I heard,
as from the lips of a human being, most
remarkable facte of intense interest to a
studen .”
According to M. Pauliat here is the de
scription of a phonograph similar to the
one invented by Mr. Edisou.

SYRUP OF FIGS.
OXU ENJOYS
Both the method and results when
Syrup of Figs is taken; it is pleasant
and refreshing to the taste, and acts
fently yet promptly on the Kidneys,
aver and Bowels, cleanses the sys
tem effectually, dispels colds, head
aches aud fevers and cures habitual
constipation. Syrup of Figs is the
only remedy of its kind ever pro

CAN YOU AFFORD IT I
That is, can you afford to continue in bad
health and endure suffering when the ELEC
TROPOISE offers so easy a road to health and
strength? Do you weigh your health against a
few dollars? You can buy on easy terms or
rent them. Its successful use everywhere
proves its merit.
West Boylstox, Mass., June 1, 1599.
My health was in bopeless ruin, and for five
years I had been unable to attend to the duties
of my calling. I suffered with a complication
of troubles, prominent among which was a
serious affection of the heart, nervous exhaus
tion, catarrh and a terribly severe form of in
somnia. Three months' use of the ELECTRO
POISE has given me better health than I had
for years dared even hope for.
