Jury was very diligent in their dntleli
prosecuting all against wnoin satisfacto

did their work well In hunting up that
which wus morally, as w« 11 as lawfully
wrong.
The Iron Bridge.
Our limited space forbids u* giving ••
extended notice of the Iron Bring* that
is now ent ircly completed across Etowah,
oid wc hope our readers will forgive at
lor abridging thin subject- no gnatly,
lie workmen, with their most excellent
overseer, Mr. Boiger, liava had the beat
we it her that could have been wished for,
not a chop of rain has fell lo hinder theta
in i lie lenst with their work. They havt
given us a bridge that is simply superb,
and well deserves tlie praises of alk Wt
nave all the while been speaking of its
oeuuty and durability when completed,
out It has even surpassed our molt cher-
ixlicd and sanguine expectation*. It it %
bridge which, in our judgement, wiH
more than aland the test that the confraO'
tors guarantee it to do. The conunlttet
apppoiiited by the Graud Jaiy at the
recent session of court to assist Judge
Putnam in testing und receiving it are,
Allen Keith, John K. Moore,W. A. T«UH
ley, John F. Haase, James W. McCollum
and Joseph J. Maddox, all of whom ere
uicn qualified to say whether or not It
will do to rick. Wo haven't a shadow of
doubt but that they will receive it with
the assured belief- tbet it will more than
stand the test of yean thtlis. The cooa*
ty should consider herself fortunate it
getting such * bridge erected at such a
small cost. Mr. Borger the gentlemanly
overseer, sayi the company will lose men*
oy on this oontruct, and that in every par
ticular they are building it as to contract!
und in some cases, even better then the
specifications were given. Tho bridge
is built for oven less money than a wood*
on bridge could Imvo been built for.
he county should naturally feel happy
over their good fortuno, and every efti.
/,»•!! shout lend their influence in securing
titer bridges to be built by the King
Iron Biidgc Company of Cleveland^
Ohio, They aro in every respect resfon-
siblc and reliable.
Died from tlio effects of Still
Beer.
We learn from quite reliablo source,
that on Monday night ot last week five
young men, four of whom were a widow-
c 1 ladies sons, Mrs, Boyds, who lives on
Capt. Usui’s place, about 14 miles from
Canton, and one of Capt. Ham’s sons,
went out on a coon hunt. After hunting
for some time they concluded to return
home. On their way was a still boose,
» hicli we belLve to be an illict one, sad
some of the boys wanted to stop sod get
liquor, but the older of the boy* add
Capt. Ham’s sou refused to go so went
and waited on the road side a little
way off for their companion*. 1 he three
younger of the boys went and found the.
beer stand and drank from it to satisfy
their thirst. On their wuy home the
younger of the three, about 13 years old,
who went to tile still complained of be*
ing sick and finally become so weak the!
the others had to carry him; he kept get
ting wor>e until just before day he
breathed his last. The other two who
accompanied him aro reported in a very
critical condition and likely to die.
This is indeed a sad story all tho way
through and should teach our young, ae
well us the old, the importanceof “Touch
not, taste not. handle not tho unclean
thing," “For at last it bitteth like a ser
pent ank stingetli like an adder."
BALL GROUND AFFAIRS,
Property is advancing in value, and
changing hunds in this vicinity.
We have no good hotel. A good in*
vestment would be to build one.
People are using a good deal of fertil
izers, showing that they arc wide-awake
to their best interest.
We have no young men who are affiio*
ted with the Tsxas fever, they are all
working like beavers.
