CRIED IN the COIRT ROOM. I Wile of W. J. PoythVt grritks Don* In Narrating Her >1 nn V tt rons*. - has rarely l>een a case in the su -OUi; which aroused so much in anti pity as that of Mrs. Annie ~ , ~,.s s against her husband, u j. Poythress, which came yesterday for a -hearing a suit for total divorce. The , IV little woman was put to a trying siin'inatlon on the witness stand in re j as the wrongs which had been done r the strange part of the case was , t>ie husband was not there to hear ,1,-wer the narration of his wife's .'"ir.ccs. His attorney pursued the de -,. 1 in his absence. M Poythress is a prepossessing and y aether' winsome little woman, and her "|. nt modesty and fervor made, her a attractive and extremely earnest She told of the cruel treatment vhtcii she hud suffered at the hands of nusband. How he has continuously lattge, 1 at her with little picayunlsh de un -. how he ftas quarreled and sworn , ner,’ and refused to allow her to eat , |„ st things she would put on the ta. ~nd cursed at her when she had on a occasion taken the only egg in the .. and cooked it for her child to eat, il l how by countless other exactions he la- 5 annoyed her; how he has failed to sup. „,n her and clothe her properly; how she , ; take some of her wedding dresses 0 make ciothing for her child, and thus leny herself. ■Heaven knows I have done all I could o hour it," she finally said in telling her id story, her cheeks reddening with h, tinge of pride and anguish. “Heaven in ,-.wa I tried every way I knew hoiv to t void getting a divorca, for 1 know the iimiidation it would bring me to and eve a if X don't get my divorce I shall tell nothing but the truth, and then the half Bill not be told.” lit re the pretty plaintiff broke down and cried like a. child. Her sincerity was he ron I question. Her case was easily her triumph. The jury was not out five min uns in bringing in the verdict In her be half, granting total divorce, this being the first verdict in the case. W. J. Poythress is the man who was re cently brought before a court of justice on a most heinous charge, but was acquitted. He was accused of having criminally as saulted a very young white girl. His at torney raised the point in his defense yes- Krd.iy that after a lengthy spell of sick ness he has not been in his right mind and is threatened with lunacy. TRAFFIC MEN TO ATLANTA. Kailroatl Commission to Hear Mitn sun's Petition. Traffic Manager E. H. Hinton and Gen eral Freight Agent W. A. Winhurn of the Central railroad and General Freight and Passenger Agent A. Pope of the Georgia and Alabama railway left last night for Atlanta, where they go to appear before the railroad commission in the matter of the petition of the town of Dawson. The board of trade of that place has appealed to the commission to readjust the rates to Dawson, claiming that discrimination is made in favor of Albany. | The meeting of the commission will be I 'held to-day. The Central and the Georgia and Alabama are the only roads directly interested in the case, and will be the only ones represented before the commission. The Dawson people may get the readjust ment of rates they desire. If they make one i strong case before the commission and show that their claims are Just, the railroad people will not fight their peti tion Asa traffic official stated last night, tlte rates were established years ago, and through the changes In the condition of tirs in that (tart of the country it Is not impossible that some discrimination may now exist against Dawson that did not when ttie rates were made.

Consumption has beer frequently pronounced incurable. It is not. It may be stopped—warded off—at almost any stage. But if the sufferer neglects to take the proper remedy in the proper way, dec.th is swift and certain. Consumption like almost all manner of disease has its inception in a trio of all embracing disorders. They are “imper fect digestion," “irregular' bowels,” and “impure blood.” They are triplets. One is dependent for existence upon the other. Cure one. cure all. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is the best of all known remedies for this disorder. It corrects dis ordered digestion, invigorates the liver, regulates the bowels, makes the blood pure, and the nerves strong. It is the great blood maker and flesh-builder. It makes the muscles firm and springy. It soothes and invigorates the nerves. It tones up body and brain. It cures ninety-eight per cent, of all cases of consumption. Mrs. Rebecca F Gardner, of Grafton, York Cos., Va., writes: “ When T was married I weigh ed one hundred and twenty-five pounds I was taken sick and reduced in health and broke out with a disease which my doctor said was eczema. He treated my disease but failed to do me any pood, and I fell away to 90 pounds. I began us ing Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discover}', and thank God and you. I began to improve. When I began taking the ‘ Discovery ’ my weight was 90 pounds and now I weigh 140 pounds and have only taken two tiottles. I cannot say too much about the medicine. My husband is'ope of the happiest men in the world He says I look younger than f did the first time he ever saw me. and that was fifteen years ago. Well, doctor. I am a well woman, and do all of my housework, tend to my fowls and cow and do some work in the garden. It isa miracle that lam cured.” Health and happiness formed a partner ship in the garden of Eden. It has never been dissolved. You cannot have one with out the other. Constipation is the usual cause of ill health. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are tiny, sugar-coated granules. They cure constipation. One is a gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic. They never gripe. Druggists sell them. CITY BREVITIES. Nine negroes were sentenced to pay a fine of $lO each or spend ten days on the gang by Recorder Hartridge yesterday, for gambling in a house in Yamacraw. Two of them paid up. One of, if not the largest rattlesnake ever seen in this county, was killed near Sandfly station on Saturday by Mr. W. F. Chaplin, superintendent of the county work. The snake had eighteen rattles on it. It is on exhibition at Barbee & Ban dy’s store at Isle of Hope. A change in the Plant system schedules will go into effect next Sunday. The only instance in which Savannah will be af fected is in the time of passenger train No. 21 leaving the city. This will be at 4 instead of 4:40 p. m„ as is now the leav ing time. The train will run every day in the week under the new schedule, instead of merely on the week days. Assistant General Passenger Agent H. C. McFadden of the Plant system receiv ed a cluster of pineapples from Fort Meade, Fla., yesterday that is either a curiosity or a monstrosity. The fruit has grown out In all directions from one point and the result is a circular pineapple of about twelve inches diameter and about six inches in thickness. A fringe of the prickly leaves encircles the fruit. An even dozen of English and Irish sailors faced the recorder yesterday morning, and later contributed $5 each to the city's exchequer, all because the lads mistook the Sailor’s Home for an old time sailor boarding house, and engaged in a devil of a row. When Policeman Mc- Hugh appeared they paid no respect to his blue uniform and brass buttons, but turned their billingsgate upon him. Re corder Hartridge at first assessed the crowd $lO each, but later cut the fines in half. Considerable excitement was created yesterday afternoon on West Broad street by the arrest of a young white man, It. G. Fordham, for striking a colored wo man, Rilla Resen. Both the man and the woman were taken to the barracks and charged with fighting on the street. The trouble, it was stated, was about an account. The young man struck the wo man on the nose with his right fist and both the nose and the knuckle were cut. A considerable crowd of negroes gathered while the arrival of the patrol wagon was being awaited, and mutterings against the young man were general. LOCAL I'EKSOYAL. Mr. L. C.

POPE LEO'S SI >1 HER LIFE. \\ riling- More Latin Poetry and Studying I p Arbitration. From the Pall Mali Gazeltej- Notwithstanding the intense heat, which in Rome this year has really assumed ex traordinary proportions, Leo XIII. main tains his usual health, feeling, indeed, rather better and stronger than in the winter. His holiness pttsses Hie hot hours of the day in the apartment espeeiallly prepared for him in the tower of Leo IV. in the Vatican gardens, where, by reason of the thickness of the walls, the temper ature is always fresh. Prof. Lapponi, his personal doctor, has often remarked to me that the summer seems to benefit him, and that the season to lie feared is the winter, when it is almost impossible to keep an even temperature in the immense apartments of the Vatican, and to prevent draughts, the lightest of which is fell by his holiness. Besides this, the pope leads in the summer months, without doubt, n much easier life than in the winter, lie cause of the comparatively smail amount of business to be transacted anti the al most entire suspension of the function and receptions, which are for him most exhausting. Now the pope rises rather early, and immediately receives a resume of news coming from all parts of the word, pre pared purposely for him in the moat con densed form by a special office in ihe Vat ican, which works from midnight until his hour for receiving it, summarizing it from telegrams, litters and newspaiers. The general outlook over the world is shortly after completed by a visit from Cardinal Rampolla. with whom he discusses the most important affairs. After a frugal breakfast, accompanied by his private at tendant, he descends to the garden and is driven to the tower of Lto IV., escorted only by a member of the Noble Guard, with whom he converses amiably shout the doings and gossip of the town. He usually descends from the carriage to take a walk in the lower garden, which, though not large, is bright with blossoms, and in which he is said to take a great interest. He occupies himself also with the growth of his grape vines, speaking pers ••tally on the subject with his gardeners. Grapes are among his favorite fruit, especially the pizzutello, an oblotfg white grape, found almost exclusively near Rome. In the lower he attends only to ecclesiastical or literary work, especially Latin poetry, in which he is such an adept, and a little before sunset returns as he came to the Vatican palace. If nothing of great im portance has occurred he is not disturb ed with politics until the next morning. It is asserted that the poi>e’s attention at present is again directed toward the subject of international arbitration, of which he is such a staunch advocate, and which he considers a principle peculiarly appertaining to the domain of the papacy. He says that the duty of the common Father of the Faithful and the head of Catholicism is to work for the establish ment of permanent peace among nations. He seems to think that the concert of powers which has so long succeeded in remaining unanimous, is a step toward the realization of it s cherished ideal. SCHOOL. Important to Parents. Few matters are of more importance than the selection of a school you wish to attend or send your children, as such se lection is likely to involve consequences that are life-long. Such a step should not be taken hastily. The best way is to see for ones self or see someone who has seen. To this end prospective students ot Rich mond’s Business College are cordially In vited to visit tiie institution and see what it is and what it does. Many pupils who have not succeeded well in other schools have here achieved re mark.! bie success, much lo their own grat ification and that of their parents. It Is well-known that the college course of study furnishes practical education of great value to those who have either lack ed or neglected early opportunities, and who find their Ignorance not only a con stant source of nuinillation, but a block of advancement. Owing to the growth of the college the past two years the principal has found It necessary to increase its facilities and to that end it will occupy the entire third floor arid a portion of the second floor of the present postofifiee building, where each departm'-nt will have separate rooms and tie in charge of a thorough and competent teacher.

II W as a I’oiver In New England anil the African Slave S'rude. From the Brockton, .Mass , Times The jiower of rum as a commercial fac tor in tho colonies was at its bight about 1730. That year the royal treasury report gave sixty-three distillers in Massachu setts turning molasses into rum. This formed the store for about 9a v. -si is en gaged in various branches of trade—Jtl> in cod fishing, 200 mackerel .fishing, lq) whal ers. etc. Newport kept pace reiatlv* ly with Boston. Refuse codfish paid for much of the molasses. Connecticut attempted to prohibit dis tilling, because it made molasses scare, but the prohibition was very hastily stop ped whin tl\e citizens found that busi ness went where rum could !*■ obtained. Rum proved the best New England com modity in all trading operations. Rum was the Indian's choice, in tact, his only acceptance, as payment for his peltries; it was chosen with equal eag. riters by Hie Virginian or Carolinian in 1 xchunge for ilia tobacco. The Newfoundland fisher men wished it in return for codfish, and, most Important of all, on the Guinea coast New England rum entirely vanquished French brandy as am edlum for acquiring s aves. Tho commerce in runt and slaves afforded all the ready money that paid for any merchandise in England, it was the driving power of all commercial ma chinery. The circuit was powerful at ev ery step. The vankee vessel laden with home made rum sailed to the African coast. The rum was bartered to great ad vantage for negroes. Tin* negroes were carried to and sold at a large profit at the West Indies, and Its distillation in New port and Boston started afresh the round of New England money-making. Some times trade was so brisk that the market was stripped of rum. in the 1752 Isaac Freeman wanted a car go of rum for the African trade. He sent to Newport, where were then thirty great rum distilleries in full blast. His corre spondent wrote that he could not have it for three months. "There are so many vessels loading for Guinea we can't get our hogsheads of rum for cash. We have been lately to New London and all along lite seaport towns in order to purchase molasses, but we can’t get on.' hogshead." The shipmasters were not shove water ing the rum to make it go as far as pos sible. Old Merchant Potter instructed ills captains to “trade with the blacks, worn r ye rum as much as possible, and sell as much by short messur as you can.” —Mnj, McClattghry, superintendent of the state penitentiary at Joliet. 111., who started a school in the prison for the ben efit of convict women some time ago, is much eti,ouraged at the success of the innovation. Women, it is said, who have been a terror to society hi Chicago are likely to be regenerated by the slate-pen cil and tile spelling book. LKGA I* SALKS.
