FULLER PAYS THE PENALTY.
MCRDEHER OF MRS. POTTLE W \S
HANGED IN >1 A CON.

to the La*t Moment He Gave Way
on the hallow*.
Macon, Ga., April 2.—Allen Fuller, the
negro who murdered Mr. Eugenia Hamil
ton I'ottle Nov. 17 last, was hanged to
day.
He made no confession except to say
that what he has heretofore paid was
true, lie has said so many things that
this gives no idea of what he meant.
A few minutes before he was led out of
his cell, he was laughing and talking love
to some negro woman in a neighboring
cell. He said he did not care how soon
the time arrived, and he watched t ie
preparation of his gallows without con
cern.
Fuller claimed that two white men.
whose names he refused to tell, offered
him and another negro $230 apiece to kill
Mrs. Pottle. The woman was killed on a
public road, and her body thrown into the
Oemulgeo river.
Ills dying requests were so disgusting
that the sheriff’s poss* were shocked, bu
at the last moment he grew’ faint and al
most fell to the floor. This was after the
black cap had been drawn over his face.
A letter known to have been in Mr a.
Pottle’s possession the last time she was
in Macon, the day of the murder, has been
found, in one of her bureau drawers, but
Fuller declares that sin- never reached her
home after leaving Macon that and ay.
Two thousand negroes viewed the re
mains after they were place in the jail
yard, but nobody except two doctors, five
negro preachers and the sheriff’s officers
were present when the drop fell.

WAR OX IMMORAL, BOOKS.
Atlanta Minister*’ Association to
Take 1 1> the Fight.
Atlanta, April 2 —The Atlanta Evangel
ical Ministers' Association to-day decid
ed to renew the attack on ‘ Sappho'’ and
other alleged immoral books. The plan of
the m nisters is to make a personal can
vass of all the h< ok shops in Atlanta, and
take a peep between the covers of all the
books said to be hurtful to the minds of
the young and old readers. Such books
os they consider immoral will be made the
objects of a strong condemnation to the
dealers, and the ministers will beg the
dealers to suppress further sales of them.
A committee was appointed to carry on
the crusade against the hurtful literature
now on sale.
MAYOR’S VETO SISTAIMiD.
Atlanta's Connell Refuse* to Pave
Street* Free of Cost.
Atlanta, April 2.—The merchants and
venders on Peters street, Including all va
rieties and classes stormed the City Coun
cil this afternoon, when the ordinance to
pave that street free of cost to abutting
properly owners came up with the Mayors
veto. After a somewhat stormy session,
the Mayor was sustained, the principal
motive actuating the Council being that
it would establish a bad precedent, in view
of the fact that all other streets In the
city have been paved at a pro rata ex
pense to abutting property owners.
PRIMARY 1\ MOXTUOJSEKY.
Rule* l.nlil Down by State Committee
Were Adhered To.
Mount Vernon, Cia., April 2.—The Demo
cratic Executive Committee of Montgom
ery county met to-day and ordered a
white primary for the nomination of a

ary. The rules governing the primary are
the same as those prescribed by the state
committee. A mass meeting was also held
to-day, and anew executive committee
elected. There was perfect harmony in
every deliberation.
CHARGED HIM WITH WINKING.
Folfee Stopped an Incipient Scrap
Between Two Men.
Atlanta, April 2.—This morning Joseph
E. Brown went to J. G. Gallagher’s place
of business with blood in his eye to make
Gallagher apologize for winking at his
wife yesterday while they were boarding
e car. Gallagher denied the charge.,: nd
the two men were becoming e> palpably
wrought up thut two itolicemen rushed In
and mude cases against the men. Galla
gher stoutly denied that he was guilty.
The Recorder dismissed the r ose.
ASKED DETECTIVE TO BRISK,
Recorder Fined Henry Curlla ft.-, for
the Offense.
Atlanta, April 2.—Because Henry Curtis
Insisted on making Detective Langford of
the police force take a drink he was as
sessed $5 by the Recorder to-day. Not
very long ago a man was reined up for
reporting by telephone that an offle r was
drunk on his bent when he was not. Tin tv
Is a rule against policemen drinking, and
It seems thut the Recorder is culled upon
lather often of lute to hold some of the
men's reputations for sobriety.

DUBLIN TO SAVANNAH.
Long: Dlntanrc Telephone Connec
tion* to lie Made.
Dublin, Ga., April 2.—lt is highly prob
able that the Dublin Telephone Exchange,
the Pritchett Telephone Line and the
Georgia Telephone Company will in a |
few days form (rattle connections and j
open up a long-distance line from Dub
lin to Savannah.
A few days ago, in order to ascertain
if it were possible to operate successfully
from this city to Savannah, Supt. J. O.
Parsons of the Dublin Telephone Ex
change, with the aid of the operator at
Kixville, connected the three lines, and
for a few' minutes conversed with an op
erator in the exchange of the Georgia
Telephone Company at Savannah. The
experiment was very satisfactory, and he j
immediately opened up negotiations with i
Manager Blabee. A reply was received I
stating that Supt, Polk would shortly 1
visit various points along the line of the !
Georgia Telephone Company and would !
probably visit Dublin to investigate the j
feasibility of connecting up the three
lines.
Rev. R. E. Neighbour, pastor of the |
Dublin Baptist Church, left this morning
for Parsons, Kan., and Denison, Tex.,
where he will conduct revivals. Although
quite a young man, he is a noted evange
list. At one time he was a missionary to
Brazil.

Corporation* \\ lilcli Are Required to

Atlanta, April 2.—lt is probable that nil
the corporations affected by the recent
Supreme Court decision compelling them
to pay hack taxes will have until April
10 in which to prepare statements of their
indebtedness to the slate.
Tax Collector Stewart of Fulton county
called on Controller General Wright and
after a conference it was decided that
this leniency would be shown the cor
porations. The time of payment is left
In the descretion of the officer of the
individual counties. It Is likely, how
ever, that the precedent established by
Collector Stewart will be universally ad
hered to.

Will Not \*U for R(*<i||ioifitment n*
City Court .Solicitor.
Augusta, April 2.—Hon. C. Henry Cohen,
who has been solicitor of the City Court
for several terms, created quite air in
political circles to-day by announcing that
he would not be an applicant for re-ap
pointment 'as solicitor of the City Court,
though the entire bar and all the leading
lolitical factors of the county had urg’d
his applying. His reasons for not being
a candidate are that his laige priva e
practice and his presidency of the Chron
icle, w hich he has lately assumed, absorb*
his time and would not warrant his re
taining the office. Mr. Cohen’s poiiti'al
strength in the county has always been
recognized, and his intention of wi;h
flrawing from the office, though known to
his intimate friends for some time, was
quite a surprise to the community. He
has one of the largest private practices at
the local bar.
The third match game between the
Brooklyn and Augusta teams resulted:
Augusta, 6; Brooklyn, 5. It was a close
and exciting game. It is ann unced that

ers, will retire from the diamond because
of the death of his brother last week, and
will practice medicine at his home in Che

for filling magazines and reloading guns.
