EFFECT OF COOL WEATHER.
IT HAS HF.TUIDED THE &HOWUG
OF THE CHOI'S.
However, There In Xot Vloeh Likeli
hood of Permanent Injury to Cot
ton—The Recent Rrooitht Won
Hroken in VII Section* of the State.
Southern Section* of the Stnte Are
Short on Labor.
Atlanta, 'May 29 —The weekly crop bul
letin, issued by the local weather bureau,
re [torts that the past week was. In gener
al, highly favorable to crops anti all farm
ing interests, the only detrimental feature
being, perhaps, the prevalence of rather
cool nights for the season.
The effect of the cool weather was to
i- :ar.! cotton growth, but as the season
Is so early, there is not much likelihood
of permanent injury to this crop.
The drought conditions which have pre
vailed to a greater or lesser extent for a
few weeks, were almost effectually broken
over the entire state by copious rains
beginning on the 23rd and continuing in
many sections until the 26th. The growing
crops were much improved by the rains
end ore now coming forward vigorously,
having been well-worked during the week.
There is some complaint of scarcity of
iabor in tije southern sections.
Chopping of early cotton is progressing
favorably In the north, and Is completed
in some of ihe central counties. The
stands are on the whole regarded as good.
Late cotton has been improved by the
moisture, and is coming up nicely.
THE GEORGE THOMAS CASE.
Sir*. Douberly Ray Xot Howe to Go
on Witness Stnnd.
Beaufort. S. C., May 28.—After hearing
the testimony of Mrs. Douberly, the grand
Jury returned a true bill against George
Thomas, the negro who clminally assault
ed her near Hardeeville, 9. C., on Easter
Sunday morning. Thomas will be tried on
Thursday, May 31. Mrs. Douberly entered
the court room accompanied by her hus
band and was at once, upon the opening
of the session, summoned by the grand
Jury, who heard her brief statement of the
facts in their room. The prisoner was
brought in for arraignment after Mr. and
Mrs. Douberly had left the courthouse.
Mr. Douberly will make an effort to pre
vent ’he subjection of his wife to the mor
tification of testifying in open court, and
it is hoped that her sworn affidavit will be
.sufficient.
Judge Gary Is the presiding officer and
Solicitor Townsend will conduct the prose
cution.

mony throughout The district.
