PIECE OF SAM HOSE’S FLESH.
GRUESOME PACKAGE SENT TO OH.
lIHOUGHTON OF ATLANTA.
An InunltiiK Letter With ft Ordered

He Condemned the Aetion of •t
Next nan Nlol>—Or. Broughton, of
Course. AN ill I'ny No Attention to
tlie Threat.
Atlanta. April 2*-Dr. I-. O. Broughton,
pnn'or of the Tabernacle Baptist Chtlreh
h as received through the mail a package
purporting to come from a committee of
Palmetto t It Ix 4 ns. containing a piece of
the flfsh of Sim Hose and a letter nottfy
ing hint (hat lie wotild he given six days in
V, hich to leave Atlanta.
If. Broughton, says that this Insult only
Biars out the slat* nv-nt 'ne made from the
pulpit Sunday night, eondemolng the ae
tion of the molt at Newnan, which con
demnation has Incensed many people who
Indorsed the lynching of the negro.
The letter which accompanied the grue
some package was obscene in the extreme,
and. among other things, railed Dr.
Broughton a "dog," who was held m con
tempt and condemned tiy alt good people
in Clio community at Palmetto.
Along with the tlesh were several onions
and some lettuce salad.
The note slated that as Dr. Broughton,
admired Sam Hose so much as to defend
Lira from the pulpit, and denounce the
action of the mob, the committee recom
mended that he itave the flesh made Into
a Brunswick stew.
Neither the letter nor the ftackage bore
a postmark. They had evidently been
posted on the train.
After reading the note and seeing the
contents of the package, Dr. Broughton
destroyed noth. The piece of negro flesh
was about the size of a hen's egg. and
was a most horrible looking object.
“Of course, I do not Intend leaving At
lanta." said Dr. Broughton, "and when
Ahe six days have passed away, I think my
friends will find me Just where I have been
for some time.”
DRIVING ROD STRITK HIM.
Cnnon'i Hend 'laslteil and His Skull
Fractured.
Helena, Ga.. April 28.—Mr. J. R. N. Car-
Eon of this place met with a sad acci
dent this morning about 2:45 o'clock. He
had been working at his saw mill night
and day for the last few days, getting
hands to load cars and work at the mill,
and this morning it is supposed he went
-west along the Georgia and Alabama Rail
road to get some hands living In that vi
cinity.
When about a mile west of the Georgia
and Alabama depot he sat dow-n on the
(Bide of the embankment and fell asleep,
his head almost reaching the rail. When
the train came along the driving rod of
the engine struck him on the forehead,
cutting three had gashes and fracturing
the skull, and also causing the back of
his head to strike the crosstie, cutting it
badly and possibly fracturing that part
of the skull as well.
He was brought home, and Dr. O. W.
Turner and Dr. J. L. Frazer of Helena
attended him. Mr. Carson, while seri
ously hurt, may recover, but Is now un
conscious. Some excitable people started
h story' of assault and robbery and had
the sheriff of Dodge county come with
his dogs to track the supposed assailant,
but upon examination he saw that there
was no doubt of the injury having been
caused by the train and probably as slat-
Nd above.
FIFTY IKARS ON THE BENCH.
Judge llansell's Keiitarknble Career
ns a Georgia Jurist.
Waycross, Ga., April 28.—Ware Superior
Court adjourned for the term yesterday
Morning. Judge A. H. Hansell, who pre
sided over the court this week, made a
, good impression upon our people.
Just before adjourning the court, ex-
Judge Joel L. Sweat arose and In a few
well-cbosen words, expressed to the dis
tinguished officer the high appreciation of
the bar, the officers of the court, the jur
ors and the citizens, for the able, dignlfled,
courteous and impartial manner In which
he had presided over the deliberations of
the court at the present/ term, and ex
tending best wishes for the future. He
was followed along the same line by the
solicitor, John W. Bennett.
The aged jurist was deeply moved, and
replied in a very feeling manner. He said
it had afforded him great pleasure to meet
again with the old acquaintances of other
days, and to meet also with their de
scendants. whom he found to be as clever
and as able as their worthy sires. The
Judge referred to the fact that fifty years
ago this very year, ho had been appointed
to the Judgeship, and with the exception
of a few years he had serves! continu
ously on the bench.
Judge Hansell is a very interesting char
acter, and for a man of 84 years, he pos
sesses remarkable vitality and clearness
6f thought. He was born In Mliledgeville
Aug. 26. 1817. In 1547 he was made so
licitor general, and In 1849 he was appoint
ed Judge, his home being in Hawklnsville
th , at A‘ me ' A ,' , <he ,lm< of hls Promo
tion to these positions the general assem
bly was overwhelmingly Democratic and
he was so universally popular that ne
was elected by a flood majority
' In 1852 he resign.-,! the Judgeship of that
circuit and removed to Thomasvllle which
place has been hls home since. Gov Jo
eeph E. Brown appointed him Judge of the
southern circuit, which place he held till
5868. Reconstruction intervened, and lie
was deposed in July, of that year. In 1873
Gov. J. M. Smith appointed him to the
same position, which he has held contin
uously until now. being his own successor
every term. Judge Hansell is now- acting
under his twelfth commission as judge of
the southern circuit. He is a devoted
Presbyterian; having united with the
church sixty-four years ago in Thomas
v’iile.
The southern circuit, if our informanl Is
correct, was the original circuit for all
this section of the country, the Hrunsvyk-k
circuit and others being taken from it.

and unity of action, in order that they
may receive proper recognition from em
ployers, the general public, and more im
portant still, the various municipal, state
and federal legislative bodies; and that
such recognition must result in laws be
ing enacted which will tend to alleviate
the condition of the laboring class; and,

sulted in much good to organized labor and
the people and should be encouraged
and upheld, and,

together in one state body with the many
labor unions of the state can accomplish
more satisfactory results and greater bene
fits than the independent and separate ef
forts now put forth,
“It Is hereby resolved. That the duly
accredited delegates of bona fide labor
organizations including local unions and

stitute the Georgia State Federation of

PAUPER FARM’S EXPENSES.
Grand Jury's It ream inundation*.
Tax Returns Too Small.
Waycross, Ga., Apr.l 28— The books of
J. A. Cason, the superintendent of the
Ware county pauper farm, show the fol
lowing expenditures from April 1 to Dec.
31. 3896, Inclusive: For permanent improve
ments, $1,144.34; digging 1,082 stumps. $127.16;
general expenses, $1,210.38; making a total
expended of $2,497.80. The average ex-
IK-nses for the period specified were $134.48
per month. For the first three months of
this year there was a total expenditure of
$t?>9.99, $276.50 for permanent improvements
und $133.70 for digging 1,337 stumps, the
average expense for that period of time
was $83726 per month. In one year’s time
the manager has dug 2,499 stumps from the
pauper farm.
According to the report of the grand
jury, the county books show
the status of the finances of the county
as follows: Borrowed from sundry indi
viduals, $9,000; vouchers paid out of this
amount, $3,063.62; vouchers issued and not
presented for payment, $516.64; leaving a
balance on hand for current expenses,
$5,420.04.
The grand jury believes, in a great
many instances, the property in Ware
county has not been returned for more
than one-half of ils value, as an Illustra
tion shows that the total returns for the
entire amount of money on hand, or in
banks, together with notes and accounts,
are $293,444.00. which Is less than the ex
act amount on deposit In the two banks
in Waycross, subject to checks. In view
of this the grand jury recommended that
a board of equalizers be instituted for the
county.
Among the most important recommen
dations made by the grand jury In their
general presentment are: The appoint
ment of Ben Sirmans as a member of the
Board of Education of Ware county to
fill the unexpired term of Henry C. Wil
liams. deceased; that A. P. Pittman and
Abram Music, now on the pension list,
being deserters in the army, have their
names stricken from the pension roll; that,
the advertising of the county be given to
the Waycross Journal; that the County
Commissioners open anew road from
Johnson avenue, beginning at Johnson
mill, and running due east to the Way
cross and Blackshear road, intersecting
It at the end of George Turner's lane.
That owing to the fact that a bill now
pending In the general assembly of Geor
gia, to abolish the Board of County
Commissioners for Ware county, the
grand Jury deems it pertinent, that the
interest of the county has been well serv
ed and does not believe It to be for the
best interest of the county that this bill
should become a law; that a bridge over
Kettle creek, on the Waycross and Wares
boro road, be built as soon as the county
finances will admit.
Little Blanche, the infant daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Allen, died at their
residence in this city yesterday at 12:30
o'clock, and will be burled to-day in
Lott’s cemetery.

Beautiful nights
are near at hand :
and Dan Cupid l!
will hold high carnival where the
nightingale trills its benediction
and the stars twinkle their ap
proval. Moonlight spins will be
sublime. Cupid's attire and his
taste for the beautiful will not
permit his proximity with an ‘‘ice
wagon,” an if you would have the
little god attend you you must
discard that antiquated mount.
An up-to-date wheel is the thing.
THE STERLING,
THE WOLFF-AMERICAN,
THE DAYTON,
