It is true the young man \\ i.-i have been well pro vided for financially out of the fortune of his father or of he- nife, had heeh""-<n to a-; t the situation, but the thought of dependence, where he had formerly beer, in lependent, was too disheartening to him, and rather than endure it he formed and exe< uted a deliberate plan of eelf-destruction. It has been known about town for sev eral days past that young Parrott had dissipated his fortune in stock and grain gambling, but as his fa'hcr is worth a quarter of a million, and being the only eon. in whom the father had always been well pleased, none of his friends expect, I tiim to take such a strenuous view of the future. For several years past he Iral been actively engaged in various busi jips senterprise, and has gained the repu tation of a remarkable sagacious >nd tar seeing one in his short career. He was strictly temperate, and was never wi.d. So far as any one knows, he had never speculated any until a few months ago, when he bought his first experience bv the loss of sr,,oort in stocks operations. This 111- father paid for him as a wedding pres ent, the deal having b on made Just at the time of liis marriage ten months ago. It was thought that this experience would be sufficient to make the young man con tented with legitimate business pursuits 5n future, but during the past few weeks the sensational activity in the wheat mar ket dazzled him and he determined to lay for a high stake. Accordingly he drew' $30,000 out of certain business enterprises in which he was in terested and ht gan 10 operate. He thought that wheat was sure to go tumbling down after the first day or two of its upward light and so made all his contracts to sell. In a very short time the cash with which lie had started out was gone and his father laid been drawn on for SSB non This amount the father paid out on hi- checks. Then the young man deeded over all his proiiet ty to his father to reimburse him. After seeing his fortune go to the wind young Parrott declared that he would go to New York and earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. He wanted to go in newspaper work. He did go to the metropolis, but returned In a few days without having met with any success. His father offered to put him upon Ills feet again and place him in a lucrative posi tion, but he resisted all these paternal of fers of assistance as well as rejecting pe cuniary aid from Ills wife, who had a handsome dower. His losses preyed upon him and he began to talk of suicide. He told his father a day or two ago that this was the only thing left for him. Mr. Parrott, Sr., and otlu r members of his fami.y talk'd and reasoned with him. and yesterday afternoon he seemed to yield to their cheering words, and prom ised to abandon all thought of the rash act that he had threatened. The prom, ise was only, however, made to disarm suspicion and cause tiie young mans fam ily to relax in their anxious watch over him. l.ast night after b-a ho told his wife that he must return to his office to look after some business affairs. In the city he met a friend and the two went to Ills office together. There Parrott found a biter dunning him f<. • $2.50u. which he had for gotten in making up a list of his losses. This upset him, and while his friend's back tins turned he took out a pistol and was about to shoot him:- If when the friend interferred. This frleml remained with him until after midnight, and only took his leave when young Parrott start ed home, promising that he would not repeat his attempt to take Ills life. The pistol m> untime having been locked up In Ids offiee d'-sk. Some time past 1 o’clock 1" entered his home at 3 Howard street. His mother-in-law, Mrs. Ray, of Griffin, end his wife, who wire greatly worried about Him. were waiting lor him, but he puelflrd them with a few remarks, and his wife retired to her bed, while Mrs. Ray followed him into the dining-room, think ing that he wanted to /ret some thing to eat. Before the lady came, however young Parrot took a sofa pillow, and placing It upon the floor lay down upon It and drawing a pistol from Ills po* k t put a bullet through Ills brain. His inother-iu luw reached the dining room door just as the fatal shot was tired and was terrified lo the sight. The two women were the only persons In the house ai the time and both were pan! stricken with horror. When Mr. Parrott Sr., arrived he was almost wild with grief.

YJAKSHAL MOON'S STRATEGY. \ Smart Columbus Officer < apt/ires the Kiifaiiln Murderer. Columbus, Ga., Aug. 28.—The escaped murderer, Bose Faulkner, who killed Cal Taylor at Eufauia, Ala., several weeks ago. was captured at the home of his j grandmother, Mrs. Pat Morehead, tiiis morning. Mrs. Morehead lives in Phoenix City, and learning that Bose had been seen In the neighborhood, Marsha! Moon laid his plans to capture him. This morning he received the information that the boy was then in the house Climbing over fences and going through back yards, the marshal reached the rear entrance to the building and quickly going to the back door he laid hands on the young man be fore he had time to realize what had been done. The prisoner disclaims any intension of killing Taylor and says that ho did not know he was dead. The killing of Taylor by Faulkner, ac cording to accounts, was entirely unpro voked. The men had been playing ball and go; into a dispute about the game, which was ended suddenly by the killing of Taylor. Faulkner used a base ball bat, striking Taylor over the head. The coro ner's jury brought in a verdict o>f murder against the young man. On Broad street at 4 o’clock this after noon a negro attacked and knocked down Miss Ella Lennard, robbing her of $45. The negro then fled and was chased into Bull creek swamp, three miles from town. It was the boldest case of highway rob bery in the history of the city. THE DISPOSITION OF CONVICTS. A Meeting of the Penitentiary Com mittee to Consider the Problem. Atlanta. Ga., Aug. 28.—Hon. Hewlitt Hall, chairman of the penitentiary com mittee of the House of Representatives has called a meeting of that body for Sept. 21, for the purpose of considering the problem which confronts the legislature in the disposition of the convicts at the end of the present lease which will expire, April 1, 1899. The committee will also consider the question of placing the misdemeanor con victs under the inspection system of the penitentiary department as recommended by Gov. Atkinson and Gov. Northern Principal Keeper J. S. Turner, of the penitentiary department, and Mr. Phil G. Ryrd, special inspector of misdemeanor convicts have been invited to appear be fore the committee. Mr. Hall thinks the legislature should ap point a commission to deal with the peni tentiary problem, and that the misde meanor camps should be placed under the inspector system of the penitentiary department of the state. His idea is that the p< nitentiary committee should take the matter up and be able to agree upon its plan before the legislature meets so that there may be no delay In the settle ment of the problem. BYRD STANDS TO HIS STATEMENT. Says He Has Proof of the Convict Camp Horrors Reported. Rome, Ga., Aug. 28.—Capt. Phil Byrd came home to-night from a day spent in Atlanta. He says he has proof for his statements In his report, and will bring them forward at the proper time. In reference to the denial of H. B. Moore, superintendent of J. R. Allison's Pulaski county camp, published In this evening's Atlanta Journal, he says he stands by his report and will answer to the governor. An important point brought out by Byrd is that all misdemeanor convicts, who are leased out, can be released by habeas cor pus action. Numbers of convicts have already been released in this way, ns It Is illegal to farm them out. The best way to correct the abuses of misdemeanor camps at pres ent. he thinks, is to have a permanent official appointed who will visit these county chain-gangs just as state camps are visited.
