Tbe Election the Most Exciting in the History of Athens Tne Prohibition ists Gat in a Heavy Vote Early in the Day-The Men Who Managed the Forces Athens, Ga., July 2.—The day in Athens has been an exciting one. It was the closest election in her annals and the most sig nificant. From early morn till night the court house grounds were thronged with an eager aDd exoited crowd watching the stream of voters and ventilating in an enthusiastic tone their respective views and their speculations. The prohibitionists were organized splendidly, aDd under the guidance of their leaders they achieved one of the most remarkable victories on record. T. W. Rucker was the mascot of the Pro hibition party, and labored with tireless energy for the success of his cause, (’apt. TV. D. O’Farrell and W. F. Dorsey were the greatest apostles of law and order. THE EARLY VOTE. At the court bouse during the morning the prohibitionists polled their greatest strength, and news from the country pre cincts uu tne prohibition side was read to demoralize the forces of their opponents. Tuey circulated the report that the country was overwhelmingly dry aud that several firofessed law and order exponents had icen won over to their cause. Tais caused a few wavering adherents of law and order to desert their colors, aud these few turned the scale and made a Waterloo for the antis. The returns from Wlnterville rolled in first and were dry. DISCOVRAUED THE ANTIS. This renewed the courage of the weak kneed prohibitionists and diseonoerted the anus. Furyoars also sent up a solid dry majority, white Georgia Factory,Princeton, tsanay Creek, Kinuey’s and Bradberry’s all sent in wet majorities. The polls closed at So’ciock in the country precincts, and the result of tne vote was exaggerated by some of the prohibitionists and capital made out it. The ladies held a prayer meeting then and also a feast. The town was throngod with representatives of various wholesale liquor houses throughout the country. Tom Cobb, the young orator of the antis, was on the grounds ihe whole day pleading and ex postulating. T. M. Hughes held the law and order post at Winterville. John Crawford was at Kinney’s, and O'Farrell worked like • Trojan at Brad berry's. HEAVY BETTING. Thousands of dollars changed hands, and pne man won SI,BOO. Votes brought from 25 to SSO, aud money was spent like water. The preachers were on the grounds and exerted all thair Influence in the cause of prohibition. The town is wild with exolte nient to-night, and the prohibition leaders will call a rally to-morrow night to cele brate their victory. The law and order party are far from satisfied with the result, and claim that illegal votes ware polled. They Intend filing a protest. The most unique and picturesque phase of the fight was the presence of ladies on Ihe street imploring votes for the prohibi tion cause and declaiming against the law end order party. Below is the official count: Athens Precinct—Prohibition 527, auM prohibition 537; anti-prohibition major ity. 10. Kinney’s—Prohibition 22, anti-prohibition 40, anti-prohibition majority 17. Bradberry—Prohibition 32, anti-probi toition 57; anti-prohibition majority 35.

Ga,, July I.—The ten companies composing the Ninth regiment,in camp this week, represent the smaller towns !of upper and Middle Georgia. They are i not very well trained troops, but tbev have I come here willing to learn, and are working : hard for improvement. | One great drawback it the fact that there is no music in camp. CoL Jones has done i all he could, but has been unable to obtain a brass band yet. The band which fur nished such good music during the past two weeks would not agree to stay longer. SANANNAH’B two wits There are no such wits and orators in oamp this week as Morgan and Hardee of the Volunteer Guards.

Atlanta, Ga., July 2.—lt is reported to the principal keeper of the penitentiary that a dangerous conspiracy to overpower and murder the guards was yesterday re vealed to the superlutendent at the Amos keag convict camp, near Eastman. The plot was disclosed by a conviot who had consorted with the conspirators, but, grow ing frightened, took this step to eeouro himself from punishment. The revolt was to have been led by Glen McCord, w ho was sentenced for eight years, from Atlanta, for perjuring himself on the famous Eddle mau trial. The conspiracy originated with McCord. The attention of the guards had been attracted by peculiar conduct on the part of the prisoners for which they were unable to aocount, but no suspicion existed of the danger wUicb lay at the bottom of it until yosterday. ATLANTA’S TWO MURDERERS. Ozburn Very Weak Washington Ready for Hie Execution. Atlanta, Ga., July 2.—Ozburn is re ported in a terribly weak state to-day, owing to his oontinued rejection of food and inability or unwillingness to allow the little he doos eat to remain ou his stomnen, and the dootors seem to bave about con cluded that the only hope of keeping him alive until the day fixed for hi* execution lies in adopting artificial methods for the introiuctl n of nourishment into his sys teru. Washington, the negro murderer who is to be hanged to-morrow, has so tar given no trouble. Though greatly disappointed that his execution is not to be made a pub lic spectaole he has about reconciled him self even to that, and as for death, he evinces no fear of it at all, announcing the conviction that he is going straight to heaven if ever yet mortal enjoyed the privilege.

WATSON IN EFFINGHAM HE MAKES A SPEECH AT THE DIN NER OF THE ALLIANCE. The Question of the Hour Is Whether the Reformers Are Going to Stand by Their Conv!ctlons-A Reply to Ingalls—An Income Tax Favored Tne Billion Dollar Senate. Guyton, Ga. , July 2.—The an nual dinner of the Effingham county alliance came off at Springfield to day and proved a great success. The main interest of the ocoasion centered In the ad dress of Congressman-Elect NVetson of the Tenth district. Promptly at 10 o’clook President Tarver called the assembly to order and the exercises were opened with praver by County Alliance Chaplain Cross. The president, in a few well-trtmod re marks, introduced Mr. Watson, the orator of the day, who was greeted with loud applause. As the speaker rose he seemed almost inspired. He said th'ijque.tionojf the hour is, are the reformers going to stand by their convictions? He said Mr. Ingalls is quoted as saying a reformer is a man who earned his bread by the sweat of his jaw instead of the sweat of his brow. If any body ought to bo good authority on sweat ing it is Mr. Ingalls. When the re formers of Kansas got after Mr. Ingalls he did not confine his perspiration either to his jaw or his brow. He perspired all over —had a regular political Turkish bath. With a reformer the thing to be considered is how to make the other fellows sweat. Whenever they can get such a reply to the question as they t}ld in Mr. Ingalls’ case they felt all huukydory. CREEP OJT THE ALLIANCE. Are we going to stand by our oreed? What is it? he asked. We want gambling in futures abolished by severe penal laws. It’s an Infernal shame to any nation t_> snatch up a teu-cont card player and put him in the chain-gang when specu lators are allowed to gamble In the neces saries of life on a huge scale that affects every man, woman and child in America. He said: ’’We ask that the pub lic lands be kept as home* for the people and not be granted away to foreigners or to speculative corporations at borne. Any one reading the reoord would be amazed arid iudignant at the way our public lands have been plundered and actual settlers driven off by greedy la id grabbers.” He said we ask that senators tie chosen by a vote of the people. When this is done the Senate will cease to be a millionaire club. No republican like Hanford or democrat like Brvce oouM buy their sent*. The Standard Oil Company and the Pacific railroad, Jay Gould’s system, would have fewer repre sentatives and the people more. FAVORS AN INCOME TAX. He would ask that an income tqx be itm po6ed, graded to adjust itself to the size of the income. Germany, England and other countries had an income tas. Iu 1866 this country derived #7-3,000,009 front the Bamo source. This would put th burden of the government on those able to bear it. One special beauty of an income tax would bo to make the rich of the north foot the bill of our lavish pensions. He favored free silver aud thought every one else should. He advocated the abolition of national banks. They got cur rency from the government at 1 per cent, and lend it at 8. The money belongs to the people. He presented many facts and figures arguing against the national banks. He would increase the circulation to SSO per capita. Such an authority as Senator George says wo ought to have it. It beiug admitted that the national banks ought to go and the government ought to issue more money, the problem arises how is this additional currency to reach the people* To this question they have responded with the land loan and sub treasury system. If its enemies can name a better plan they stood pledged to accept it. THE MONEY QUESTION. He gave a graphic and interesting expla nation of the money question. He said that without the legal tender quality given it by the government gold has no properties of money more than cotton. Ho referred in directly to Mr. Orlsp, and said he harbored no ill will againit any man. He said his district indorsed his position, and the reform p.-irty all over the state doe*. He specially pleaded the cause of labor because it needed it. Mr. Watson paid bis respects to the big dallies for their opposition to the reforms urged by the alliance and the declarations contained iu the Ocala plat form. He regretted that they did not dis cuss dispassionately the domauds of the people and meet the Issue squarely and not ridicule their demands. Ills speech con sumed about one and a half hours, and was applauded throughout. The alliance dinner was heartily enjoyed. Id the afternoon Rev. J. il Gilmer, alliance lecturer for the First district, who was ore sent, entertained the audienoe witn a fine speech in words whien told his heart was In the work. A NSW YAOHT. An Orange Park Craft That Uay Prove Hard to Beat. Orange Park, Fla., July 2.—Tuesday at 2 o’clock a few persons wore Invited to take a ride ou the new sail boat built here by Capt. Burchen, so as to try her speed before departing for Fernandina, where the race is to take place. When all was ready word was given to get aboard, sails hoisted and she sailed beautifully up to the mouth of Dootor’s lake and then turned back mak ing for the dock. There were heavy clouds in the west and much thundering and a good deal of wind. J ust as the boat got in front of the wharf, where the water was about eighteen feet deep,there came a squall when to those ou the bank it seemed that the entire sail was under water, that the boat must be full of water and the inmates must do some swimming, but through the skillful management of CaDt. Burchen all was righted and she stood up all O. K. Capt. Burchen, the builder of the boat, is to sail oer in the race, and he thinks his boat will be hard to beat, aud there are several sail boat men here who say the boat is well made and will make a good raoe. Mr. Piokens Hall and Miss Nellie Thomp son took their friends by surprise to-day by going down to Jacks onville and getting married, and then goingto Asheville, N. C., ou a bridal trip. Our ;postofflce has been removed, making it more convenient for most of the people. SUGAR TRUST DIVIDENDS. Some of the Stockholders Secure Theirs Despite the Injunction. New York, July 2.—Holders of sugar trust certificates received checks for their dividends to-day, although payment was enjoined yesterday by Judge Barnard. The checks came by mail from Jersey City and were drawn on the Western National Bank. Many of the parties receiving ohecks pre sented them at onoe at tbe bank, but after $359,000 had been paid an injunction was served on the bank, restraining it from Laying auy more. The amount oalted for by the dividends Is $1,850,000. Set it for Hugging. At the siege of Petersburg a young lieu tenant, who was very good looking aud a great farorite with the girls at home, says Texas Sift ings, was badly wounded in the left arm Sev eral of the surgeons declared It was n-cessary to amputate tbe Lmb; but Anally one of them decided that by removing a section of the bone the arm could be saved. "But,” said he. "it wi l be a bad job, and when healed the arm will be crooked.” The young lieutenant, thinking that any kind of an nrm was better than no arm, and with a thought for future conquests, replied "Never mind the crook; set it for hugging and go ahead. ’’ The oreat problem of the Prince of Wales was not ’’The Lady or the Tiger," but "The Lady and the Tiger.

To acoommodate those wishing to attend the sports at Tybee to-morrow, the Savan hah and Atlantic has arranged a special schedule, Trams will leave the city at 6 o’clock, 9:30.11, 1, 2:80. 3:30 and 5. Much interest is being manifested in the prize drill between the Busch Zouaves and the Bartow Light Infantry. Tybee residents are kicking again at tbe Savannah and Atlantic railway about its schedule. The train which heretofore left the itland at 6:06 o’clock a. m. oity time has been taken off, and in its stead a 5 o’clock standard time train put on. Those who always came up on the 6:06 train, and the number is not small, seriously object to the change which compels them to get up at so early an hour. A petition, it is said, will be presented to General Superintendent Mcßee to put back the 6:06 train. It is vorr much the custom of thrifty house keepers, wneti moving from the town into the country home for the season, to carry along a goodly supply nf silk covered divan pillows bor rowed from the lounges of the town house. When these pillows are Incased in delicately tinted silk the hard, double wear o l winter and summer Is apt to shortly render them unfit for U 4 This may be prevented by buying a yard or two of variously colored and decorated pun gums, that can be made into loose shams and slipped over the round or square pillows. Bush shams not only save the wear and tear on the pillow* and are Hdlculously inexpensive, but seem a pleasant relief to the well-known pattern of tbe antler silk case. ITWJP OF FIOS.
