THE GEORGIA LEGISLATURE-
The summer session of the General
Assembly of Georgia will convene in
Atlanta on Wednesday, July 8th.
A great deal of business will come
before the two houses for settlement,
but the determination of the memr
bers is to be finish up all of it in
abort asd effective order.
The Western & Atlantic question
is now entirely removed from the
legislature, and the tax act has been
finished. Thus two of the lengthen
ed pieoes of business have been fin
ished, and this will give the General
Assembly more time to act on other
questions.
Among the important bills to be
acted on will be the Jackson bill,
appropriating about one million dol»
lars as a standing school fund. This
bill has passed the House and is now
pending before the Senate. It will
in all probability pass that body.
This is a wise provision,and makes
clear the way for a system of splen
did common schools. The legists
tare will be asked to make an appro*
priation to the University of Geor
gia, and if such action is taken in
addition to the common school bill,
then Georgia will have advanced to
the very front, from an educational
standpoint.
Another matter that will claim the
attention of the lawmakers will be
the request for an appropriation of
one hundred thousand dollars for the
purpose of making a Georgia exhibit
at the Columbian Exposition.
There seems to be a difference of
opinion on this subject, both as to
the expediency and constitutionality
of such a step, and a spirited debate
iB to be expected along this line.
The Banner is convinced through
Ur. Cobb’s opinion on that subject
. that such a step would be constitu-
onal, and moreover, we are fully
satisfied that the best interests of
the people of Georgia wonld be ^ob
served by the passage of the bill
making the appropriation.
The State will be re-districted by
the legislative committee, and their
report accepted or rejected by the
General Assembly. This will be
matter of great interest to the whole
State.
And again the Twitty Bill will
claim its share of attention at the
hands of the Senate.
Mnny other matters of interest will
come up, and taken altogether it will
be a session full of business and
go id work.
Speaker Howell will preside over
the Unuse with his usual grace and
diuuity, while President Mi’.chell
will handle the gave) with authority
in the Senate.
The session, according to the oat-
look of many members, will not be
longer than forty days.
there it is seldom that the summing
up by the Judge, as the English call
it, or the charge, as we term it in
in America, degenerates into an
elaborate argument in favor of one
of the litigants.
“Yet such, we are sorry to say, is
the character of the addresB which
Lord Coleridge delivered to the jury
in the baccarat case;
“It was really a speech for the de
feudants, in reply to the speech of
Sir Edward Clarke on the day pre-
vious for the plaintiff, and, with the
exception of a very few passages,
was not judicial in form, tone, or
snbstance.”
It is undoubtedly the fact, and a
deplorable one, too, that so eminent
s Judge, thonght more of the influ»
ence and power of W ales, than ot a
mere officer of the realm, and the re
spect of the people.
The delivering of an opinion by a
judge iu a case over which he is pre
siding, is a bad precedent, and under
such circumstances will destroy the
reputation for justice and impartial
ity which Lord Coleridge has hith
erto held.
MANY BEAUTIFUL BUILDING LOTS
SOLD TO EAGER BUYERS ON
YESTERDAY.
Profits Made by the Investors-Boule-
vard lots the Highest— The Prices
Paid on Yesterday, and to
Whom the lots were sold.
Years ago it might have been look
ed upon in a different light, and it
would have done well coming from a
counsel; but in these days and times
men mast have regard for public
opinion, for the favor of a QTffeen or
even ot such a Prince, cannot win for
any man that support and admira
tion, which his success in life de
mands.
A new style of journalistic enter
prise has been started in the South
The Southern Life, published in
Atlanta, has well been called the
‘Puck” of the South. It is a twenty
page paper of quarto size, and is full
of bright and witty hits, attractively
illustrated. It contains matter for
every one, for it is devoted to art,
literature, politics and society, as
well as to wit and humor.
Its efficient editor, Mr. John H
Blackwood, has been at the work
for some time,and has the experience
well calculated to give to the people
a sheet that will please all.
The subscription price is very low
being only $2.00 per year. Sample
copies may be found at The Banner
office, and subscriptions may be sent
in here.
Considering the excellence of the
first publications, the success of the
enterprise cannot be donbted.
Mr. Clarkson allows that the
democrats are bold, bad men, bat he
allows that they have been smarter
than the republicans in effecting or
ganizations and in enlisting the ac
tivities of young men. He is even
disposed to think that tbe republi
cans . might advantageously follow
their example.
An exchange proposes to solve the
question of pnnisbing mischievous
college boys in an uniqne manner.
It says : Cap and gown should be
worn in every college, and then the
rowdy coaid be punished by taking
his uniform away from him for a pc
riod proportionate to his offence.
Mr. Gladstone recently remarked
that the only two young men of his
acquaintance who bought and read
books were Lord Rosebery and Mr.
Balfour.
The sales of land by the Athens
Park & Improvement Company de
monstrates tbe fact that Athens din
is valuable.

LORD COLERIDGE’S CHARGE
The verdict in the Baccarat scan
dal has at last been awarded to the
defendants.
Tbe jury remained oat but ten
minutes, and brought in the verdict
which has been expected since tiie
beginning of the trial.
It was in a large measure inflnenced
by the charge of Lord Coleridge, tbe
Judge in tbe case. In speaking of
the trial, the New York Sun says :
“In many of the American States
a Judge who presides over a trial is
prohibited from commenting npon
the facts of the case in his charge to
the jury, bat must confine bis re*
marks solely to a statement of the
rules of law by which the jury should

That Occurred In the Life of the Late
Judge Lochrane.
The Augusta Chronicle in writing of
the prohibition contest now pending in
Clarke county, relates an interesting
incident in the life of the late Judge O
A. Lochrane. It says':
Many years ago Athens had a great
temperance revival. It was in the lat
ter part of the Forties. Clubs were or
ganized with college boys and town
men, and Buch leaders as the Lumpkins
and Dougherties were at the head of the
movement, At that ti i e there was
young drug clerk in Athens whose
name was Lochrane. He did not have
a finished education, hut he was a great
reader and a fluent, florid speaker. His
eloquence was a toast with the students
and made him a favorite in the town.
On one occasion Lochrane appeared
at a temperance banqnet given at tbe
Town hall. Chief Justice Lumpkin
presided and delivered in
bis own exuberant style an
apostrophe to cold water. At tbe con
clusion of his address, he turned to the
young Irishman whom he called npon
to respond, and epitomized Irish orato
ry in the four words, “Phil lips, Cur
ran, Grat-tan, Loch-rane.” The ap
plause was deafening and the future
chief-justice spoke handsomely at the
call of theold chief-justice. Lochrane,
made a beautiful personification to the
goddess of temperance and touched the
heart of a handsome lady in the audi
ence who was carried away by. the elo
quence of the young apothecary. With
a gallantry as pronounced as his elo
quence, Lochrane had that part of his
address, which referred to tbe “goddess
of temperance,” printed upon white
satin, and presented to bis fair admirer.
Tbe lady was Miss Lamar, of Macon,
and she afterwards became Mrs. Loch
rane. Many years later when prohibi
tion swept over Atlanta, Judge Loch
rane, who had been admitted to the bar
and had gained fortune and fame in bis
profession, added his eloquence to the
campaign and made a libation to the
S utter of the rarest fluids in his cel-
>rs.

and his condition is dangerous. His

The continuation of the sale to-day
was as great a success as the day be
fore.
Quite as large a crowd were collected
on ye8terdaytmorning at eleven o’clock,
and the bidding was every bit as spiri
ted.
While some outsiders have made in
vestments here, most of the purchasers
have been Athens people, aud that
shows what confidence the people have
in the future development and growth
of their city.
Athens business men and merchants
have bought the property right along,
and not only with the desire of making
a paying investment, but with tbe in
tention of building homes, and building
them right away too. This will greatly
enhance the value of the property, and
even the building probability has en
abled many to sell the lots they have
bought with profit.
Some have disposed of the lots they
bought, to other purchasers, and have
realized on the sale from twenty-
five to a hundred dollars. This shows
what is in the property, and is good ev
idence that it will not be a long time
before its value will be doubled.
The last of the lots to be offered at
auction were sold on yesterday, and
they brought v fully as good prices as
those sold on tbe day before.
This great land sale will mark an era
in Athens progress, the influence of
which will remain with us for years to
come. The low prices for real estate
at the present time are
due to the dullness of the season, and
when that is over Athens will surely
get a hump on her. She has, during the
past year, outstripped many of her sis
ter cities in the state, and her future
will be measured by the enterprise of
her citizens. Today this assures her of
a brilliant and prosperous future and
a future, which is not far off.
The sale began at II o’clock and was
again carried on by Sheriff
Weir. The Prince avenue lots were
the first ones sold, and all of these
brought good prices. Indeed the lots|on
Prince Avenue and on tbe Boulevard
are the favorites, and tbe Boulevard is
destined to be in a short space one of
the most beautiful residence streets in
Athens.
WHO BOUGHT THE LOTS.
Lot No. 2 in block 29, situati d on
Priuce ave was sold to Mr. E. W
Lavender at$775 per front foot.
Lot No. 4 in the same block was sold
to Mrs. M. B. Lumpkin at $6 25 per
front foot.
Mr. David Fowler bought lot No. 1
in the same block, and will pay $7 75
for each front foot of it.
. In block 27, lot No. 1, was sold to
Mr. W. M. Maddrey at $6.25 and was
extravagantly cheap at that figure.
Tbe next lots were those few left for
sale on the Boulevard, the first of whieh
was lot No. 8 in block 32. which when
tbo bidding bad reached $5.25, was
knocked down to Mr. R. D. Mure at
that figure.
Mr. E. W. Lavender bought lot No.
5 in block 32 at $4 50.
Lot No. 5, in block 29, was bought by
Hou. E. T. Brown at $4.25 per front
foot.
No. 2, in block 32, was knocked down
to Mr. D. P. Haselton at $7 75. This
lot was on the Boulevard, and was one
of tbe most desirably located of all.
Mr. J. M. Head bought lot No. 1 in
block 32, and paid for each front foot
thereof, $9.25, at which figure he got a
bargain.
Lot No. 1 in block 31, went to Mr.
H. H. Crawford at $4.50.
Prof. C. M. Strahaa bought lot No.
3 in block 26, at $6.00 at which price it
was dirt cheap.
Mr. W. M. Pittman’s name appears
again prominently as an investor.
This time he bought No. 7 -in block 26,
an J No. 8 in block 23. For tbe first he
paid $3.70 per front foot, and for the
second $4.25,
Lot No. 1, in block 25 was knocked
down to Mr. G* H. Yancey at $4.50.
Many others were sold besides these,
as the sale was continued all the after
noon. Twenty-five lots were sold dur
ing the day, and they were all good
property. This makes fifty-seven lots
which have been sold in all, and choice
lots they all are too.
Mr. Blackburn of Atlanta Bays:
“The sale-has been a most prosperous
and powerful one. It is a sure evidence
of growing power and prosperity in the
city, and the time will come when the
people of Athens will realize the
immense advantage which will come to
them from just such a sale as this.
Moreover this sale has shown the great
interest and confidence which Athens
people have in Athens real estate, and
that is just the spirit of enterprise
which is going to make of Athens one
of the foremost of Southern cities.
The way in which the sale was con
ducted was, in itself remarkable. Tbere
was plenty of enthusiasm but no under
excitement, and each investor bad full
opportunity to deliberate well before be
took the step he did. The sale is a de
cided success.”
Mr. Blackburn’s views are
totally disinterested, and are
worthy of serious consideration
on that account.
Tbe Land company are well satisfied
with tbe result of the sale, and are con
fident that their work will be for the
good of Athens. The lots sold better
on yesterday than on the day before
and with a few more improvements, in
levelling and in the roads will make the
lols bring double what they sold for.
Many of the lots have been reserved
for a future sale, and they • will be far
more valuable when next oflered for
improvements upou the property will
be carried on constantly. To those
who failed to get a lot at this time have
missed a bargain.
Tbe work of the Park Land and Im*
provementIConipany shows what Ath
ens can ana will do. Such a successful
sale at this dull season of the year is
the best possible evidence of growing
(prosperity.
A large party of railroad officials and
capitalists passed through Athens yes
terday.
They travelled in fhr'"° private cars
which were magnificent!} filled up,and
had a special engine for the occasion.
There were in the party Gen. Alex
ander and Mr. Sol Hass of the R <fc D.
system, Maj. G. A. Whitehead, (Sen.
Manager of the R- & D., Mr. J
L. Taylor G. P. A. Mr. E. T. Charlton,
Mr. A. G. Craig, and Mr. Hamilton

and reached Atlanta about ;i week ago
They made a tour of ti e sta f “, went
over into Alabama, rotund to Georgia
and passed through Atheus on their re
turn trip ycoierd. y.
Their object in making this trip was
to inspect the entire Richmond and
Danville system, aqd to examine the
terminal facilities presented by this sec
tion of the South, and
pecially iu Atlanta. These
they have found the best in tbe South,
and with an opening to the sea by the
Central system, which is now in the
hands of the R. & D., n > better termi
nal facilities are to be fouud anywhere
They were well pleased - with the con
dition of things as they found them iu
Athens, and speak of improvements
here which will better the Athens sys
tern of roads.
They were here but a few min
utes. They came up by the Georgia
road, and left for the north very soon
after arriving by the Northeastern.
One of the piominent railroad men
here remarked on yesterday, that many
of the Athens railroad boys would
probably soon be oo the loaf. But they
are all efficient workers and there is no
need to fear.

OPINION AGAINST HIM.
The Proceedings of the Trial Before
the Ordinary. Speeches Made,
and the Question left to the Ju
ry Selected to Determine the
■Stateof his Mind.
Ailanta, June 24.—[Special.].—At
lanta’s big sensation ie the Ozburn hear
ing, coming" up before Ordinary Cal
houn in tbe superior court room this
morning. The' room was crowded al
most to suffocation as Ozburn—a phys
ical wreck if there ever was one—was
brought in on the arms of two stout
bailiff’s. In the hearing that followed
he sat as one dazed, paying absolutely
no attention to anything or anybody.
Both the* State and Ozoum’s relatives
were represented by attorneys, ex-
Speaker Clay being counsel for Ozburn.
A jury was obtaiued wilhout much dif
ficulty. The personnel of the jury is ex
cellent. In fact twelve better men
could not be gotten together in Atlan
ta and it is safe to say that tbe people
will abide by whatever decision they
may reach. The jury consists of:
Dr. J. B. Baird, Dr. J. M. Alexander.
T. B. Neal, L. H. Beok, W. W. Boyd,
E. P. Chamberlain, A. T. Haltiwanger,
H.C. Stockdell, G. B. Adair, George
S. Lowndes, J. H. KetneTf, A. J. Mc
Bride.
Dr. Gnffln, county physician, who
has had the best opportunity of study
ing the man, swore positively that he
is insane. Dr. Stiles, who has also
been at the jail many times and has
studied Ozburn, was unable to be pre
sent but made affidavit that he is crazy.
Dr. W. D. Anderson, pastor of the firsi
Methodist church, who has known Oz
burn all his life, gave some interesting
testimony about a visit to the jail wheu
Ozburn failea to recognize him. A rel
ative of the doomed man swore that
there is insanity in the family, several
of Ozburn’8 cousins having been in the
asylum. There were several other wit
nesses this morning, much of the testi
mony being rambling and not satisfac
tory from any standpoint.
THK AFTERNOON SESSION.
The afternoon was devoted to the ex
animation of witnesses, most of them
doctors who testified variously as to Oz
burn’s saneness or lack of it.
Opinions differed very decidedly, but
the preponderance so fai as quantity
was concerned seemed to be against Oz
burn. The night session is still at
midnight, being held.
Speeches have been made by Hamil
ton Douglass, ColoneliBroyles, and Col
C. D. Phillips, of Marietta, for Ozburn,
Solictor-General C. D. Hill aud W. U
Glenn, for the State.
At 10:30 o’clock the jury was asked
whether they preferred to Btick it out
or adjourn until morning. All voted to
stick.
There is no telling when a decision
will be reached.
. CONVICTS BODIES.
A Quiet Wedding To-Day,—To-day
at twelve o’clock at tbe residence of
Mrs. A. E. Grady on Barber street,
Miss Mattie Nicholson Grady will be

Brought to Atlanta From the Scene
of the Riot.
Atlanta, Ga., June 24.—[Special.]—
The bodies of Lansdown, Ward and
Green, three convicts killed at Cole city
were brought to Atlanta to-day. Lans-
down’s body was claimed by relatives
and turned over _to them. The other
bodies have been delivered to the At
lanta Medical college and put in the
pickling vaults, there to remain thirty
days unless claimed by relatives.
If not claimed they will be turned
over to tbe tender mercies of nfodical
students. Advices received at the pen
itentiary office today state that another
convict has died. It is presumed this
is Palmer. Palmer was one of the fa
mous robbers who figured in tbe fight
on a train between Pittsburg and Cleve
land, Ohio, several years ago.
A reward of four thousand dollars
had been offered for him, and Northern
authorities have made many efiorts to
get him.'
He was sent up from Tbomasville for
burglary. Once he escaped from the
Thomasville authorities and shot tbe
sheriff who was pursuing.
He and Ward were considered the
most desperate characters in the peni
tentiary.
