WITHOUT A HEN
UP FOR LIFE.
R.v. Al.x W. Scalar Talla Haw th.j Negro Murderer Saves Neck But
Sun Hatched Eggs. Long Sentence '
A unique article oau be read today in
the Atlanta Journal from the pen of
Rev. Alex W. Bealer. He tells of a re
markable instance that happened at the
paatorium.
About three weeks ago his little boy
set a hen, just an ordinary, everyday,
yellow, south Georgia hen. In the
oonrse of time the hen came off with
three little chickens, leaving a nest fall
of eggs They looked so fresh that the
little fellow concluded that hewoold
them under another hen, who allow
ed symptoms of laziness. The other
hen, however, did not like the idea of
raising chickens properly belonging to
another bird, so she refused to set on
the eggs.
10 days after the three little chickens
had hatched Mr. Bealer’s cook called
out to him: “Yon better come out here
and look atter these here chickens.
Here's a whole nest fall ot’em. It sho
is the fust timelevar seed chickens
hatch out by thoirselves. * *
Mr. Bealer made an investigation and
fonnd that oat of 0 eggs that had not
been covered by a hen in 10 days, 7
chickens had hatched. He accounts for
it from the fact that the nest is in a box
close under a low roof on which tho sun
shone uninterruptedly every day. thus
producing enough heat to bring the
chickens out of the eggs.
In com men! ug upon this Mr. Bealer
>ys that no one need think we have an
unusually hot climate here, as it does
not take an extra amount of heat to
ltatch an egg, just the heat of an unimal
body. He says that this Sooth Georgia
climate is the most wonderful climate
in the world. Anythiug given half a
chance will grow to maturity here.
Corn, cotton, sugar cane, pinders, men
and women, and in fact anything but
cranks, grumblers, free silver, Willie
Hurst boomers (nursed by a congress
man and an agricultural commissioner)
will flourish and grow fat in this won
derful South Georgia climate, and es
pecially in that which envelopes Thom
as county.'
An adjourned term of Thomas conuty
superior court convened yesterday
morning for the. trial of jail cases. The
njoet important case was that of Bill
Lewis who was charged . with mnrder
He was found guilty by the jury. His
attorneys W. 0. Snodgrass and Roscoe
Luke succeeded in saving his neck and
the verdict was accompanied by a rec
ommendation that he be sent to the
penetentiary for life. His crime was
the murder* with a knife of Sherman
Thomas. The killing took plaoe last
Christmas day at the Brim saw mill
near Ooolidge.
Another case was that of the state vs
Will Williams. He was accused of
assanlt with intent to mnrder. He had
been prakticing witli a pistol on* the
6th of last March with the person of
Julia Ann Ewers a colored woman as
his objective point. He was represent
ed by Theo Titus aud succeeded in ob
taining a recommendation for punish
ment as for a misdcuicauor, along with
the verdict of guilty.
A rose by any other name woald smell
as sweet, and another Will Williams,
wad upon the charge of burglary. He
is the man who broke into tho store of
the Chastains near the basket factory
aud helped himself to shoes, overalls
etc, on tho thirty-first of last January.
He plead guilty aud will he sentenced
later.
The court will continue in session to
day. Two colored men accused of mur
der, Jndson Mitchell and HaiTy Har
ris are on the docket for the day
