O LOttB,
Francis Streetman, who it is said com-
I mitted a rape on the little ten year old
child of Gus .Allen, of Madison coun
ty, was captured at the Georgia Factory,
Monday night
Bailitf Reynolds found out that he was
at work at the factory, and summoned a
posse to accotnpsny him there and assist
in arresting Streetman. The posse ar
rived at the house where it was supposed
that StreetmaD was staying about end
surrounded it The bailiff pushed open
the door and saw Sireetmiu sitting by
the fire, and immediately covered him i
with his pistol and ordered him to sur- '
render.
Streetman showed no signs ol resis
tance, but knew at once what he had
been arrested for - lie is a man weigh
ing about 175 pounds and on being ques
tioned stoutly denied having committed
the crime. The little girl is still in a
precarious condi'ion, and is not yet out
of danger.
Streetman was brought to Athens
and lodged in jail, to at.ait th© arrival
of SlienlF Scarhoro, who was notified
yesterday of Ins capture, and advised to
come after the prisoner in the night, as
the people am so much excited that
lynching is feared. The people living
in.the neighborhood of Mr. Allen are
very much enraged,mid threats are made
against the perpetrator of this dasturaly
deed by all who know the circum
stances.
It is more than prohahlo that Sheriff
Scarhoro will leave Streetman in Athens
until the feeling subsides.

A Diving Kent.
On Tuesday afternoon last a party of
gentlemen, one of whom was Air. Frank
McDonald, were iu bathing at the Blue
Springs, when an. immense terrapin
was seeu to come out from under the
rooks and swim out to the edge where
it stopped. The crows tried to surround
and capture it, hut before they could
do so it had got Lick into tlie deep wa
ter and was making for its retreat mi
ller the rock. Before it could get out
of reach though Mr.McDumdd made a
dive after it,followed it to tin- bottom
of the Sjirings, a depth of 12 or 15
feet, held it to the ground with one
hand, siezed one of its hind fret with

senate committee on agriculture today,to
oppose the transfer of the signal office
to the agricultural department. He ad
vocated a re-organization of the bureau
upon a broader plan, with several pro
fessors, and favored recruiting the ser
vice from West Point graduates.
In the house to-day a conference 'was
ordered on the land forfeiture bill. The
conference reDortou the agricultural ap
propriation bill was submitted. Tho con
ference disagreed on tho *110,000 senate
amendment for sorghum experiments.
In the senate, the conference report on
the post-office appropriation bill was pre
sented. The confcres were unable to
agree as to |800,000 for additional mail
service to South and Central America.
After Mr. Stewart’s attack on the pres
ident for his pension vetoos yesterday,
the senate took up Mr. Culloui’s bill to
amend tnc interstate commerce law, and
passed it after considerable debate. The
amendments are intended to secure a
stricter execution of the law.

Prison Camp* la Georgia.
Editor Banxrr-Watcbw.uc — Can
you. or any of your correspondets, en
lighten the public as to tha religious in
fluences brought to bear upon State
prisoners?
1st. Are the camps properly sup
plied with testaments, of luge print, for
the prisoners that can read?
2nd. b there regular peaching at acy
of the camps, sad at whose expense?
Bring out the fact if you can. A
Christian public ought not to be ignorant
of points like these. Cnismr.
Of all the medicines I ever heard of oc
used, 1 consider Dr. Biggers* Huckleber
ry Cordial the beBt medicine for all bowel
trouble and children teething ever used.
Advice to Motners.
Mrs. Winslow’s Southing Syrup
should always be used for children teeth
ing. It soothes the child, softens the
gums, allays all pain, cures ivind colic
and is the best remedy for diarrhoea,
twenty-five -ents a bottle.
Somebody ought to remind the lie
publicans that free whisky and free
sugar are not enough—tlie tariff ought
to be taken off lemons also. The
American working man who does the
“mixing” for his neighbors will never
then see another idle hour, and a good
many of his customers will never wire
afterward whether the tariff duties
average 47 per cent or 47,000 per
cent.
The Verdict Uunuiinous*
W. D. Suit, Druggist, Bippus, Ind
testifies: “I can recommend Electric
Bitters as the very best remedy. Eve
ry bottle sold has given relief in every
case. One man took six bottles,and was
cured of Rheumatism of 10 year’s stand
ing.” Abraham Hare, druggist,Bcllcvillc,
Ohio, affirms : ’’The best selling medi
cine I have ever handled in my 20 years'
experience, is Electric Bitti rs.” Thous
ands of ethers have added their testi
mony, so that the verdict is unani
mous that Electric Bitteis do cute all
diseases of the Liver, Kidneys or Blood.

The celebrated John Dunn, who turned

ences in wild Africa during his thirty
years’ residence there. Dunn was a big
hunter before he became King Cetywayo’s
right hand man. and the stories he tells
of some of his exploits are enough to
make our crack shots open their eyes.
One morning ho bagged twenty-three
hippojiotami in thirty shots, and during
that season 203 of these river horses were
victims of his rifle. No wonder big game
in Zulukind became scarce, with 6uch
hunters as John Dunn continually blaz
ing away at every animal worth shooting.
Dunn, unlike the other hunters, did not
go further afield in pursuit of sport, but
settled down, took to politics, married
into the best families of the Zulu aris-
tocraev, and today is the most important
individual in liis adopted country.
