A CURIOUS CASE RECALLED
Where a F'y Blister Worked With

of Eighty-Seven.
A few days a^o the Banner contain
ed vlie points in a easj ol suspended an

ed on the streets, some pronouncing ta
hoax, and others, who li?d witnessed
siuiil ir cises, believing t p'ausible.
T'lose who have read the papers are
familiar with the actor’s sister, who, in
N -w Yo k,sbe last few days, has watch-
e i by the colli a of her brother refusing
ta believe him dead.
These tbiugs bring to the mind of a
Pannhr reporter acise that rc’ually
occuired in Middle Georgia. While
therejs nothing rcniutic in,the story,
it is something stranger than fiction.
The writer has conversed with the sub
ject of this article at her home.
You will be made acquainted with
the young lady of whom
we writ**, in her room wh«re she li
q lire sick with a wasting fever. She
has been for some time hovering be
tween life and death, and as the au
tumn evening draws to a close, it look-
as if this young girl, only sixteen, the
idol of fol d parents will,forever close
h« r earthly pilgrimage.
The shades of n’ght appear, and in
tli" glimmer of the lights from an old-
fashioned lire-pli-ce, her smile is s**n
for the last time, a few gasps and her
spirit has lied.
Mess* tigers sre hastily dispatched fer
a physician and her father. They ar
rive about tlie same m< ment, and tin
f-nner, after a careful examination,
pronounces life ixtinct.
The blow was a n on crushing one to
that fond parent, and he stoutly re
fused to be’iove that his daughter wa-
indeed dead, lie implored the docto>
to make another effort to bring lif*
again into the still fo - m. The cdJ doc

purpose.
The father was led away and th*
vrung lidy was prepared for burial.
Watchers w> re with the body and tl'«

A MONSTER RALLY-
the DEMOCRATS of clarkh to
ORGANIZE AT ONCE.
APRIL 2ND SUGGESTED
As the Time of Meeting-The Work Be
fore the Democracy of the
County—It Is no Time for
Idle Dreaming—
Work Must
be Done.
The Democrat* of Clarke will organ
ize for the coming fray.
And they will go into the organiza
tion with a determination to do good
work.
It is important that this meeting
should be held at an early date,and that
the organization should be perfect and
enthuoiastie.
Several citizens of Athens were talk
ing over this subject yes'erday and they
sgreed that Stfurday night week, April
2nd would be a good time to hold a
monster rally in the iatei e3t of democ
racy.
Judge A. L. Mitchell, chairman of the
County Executive Committee, and Mr
F.M. Hughes, President of the YouDg
Men’s Democratic Club, will be teen
and the? will probably ar
range a date for the meeting.
The State of Georgia h democratic,
tml she will go democratic this fall,
but nevertheless there is work for the
lent* crats of Georgi 1 to do.
Clake County will do her full part,
ind sn earl? organization and a stub
born light will sc omplish much.

WHOSE EGG IS IT?
Interesting Litigation in Sight.
>Vho®e erg is it ?
W* 11 the courts may have to deter
mine that question yet.
Yesterday a farmer came along with
nen, and meeting an Athens m r-
*an .bey soon drove a bargiin, and
« hi n was left at the inerc aant’i
.tore.
The farmer went off saying that hr
tru'Ud call by a little later and get tie
money.
He had hardly gotten out of sigbj
k ien the lien laid an egg. The f irmei
toon came back and demanded the epg
i i addition to his pay for the ben.
The merchant paid him far the hen
but refused to turn over the «gg to
him. This cau-ed much argument and
some feeling between the parties.
Should the dispute get into the
courts, as it seems it will, the case will
be on j of intense interest.
What The Brunswick Times Thinks.
Toe burning of Bev. J. B. Culpep
per’s tent in Brunswick brings Kditrr
McCook to the f'ont with the following
-c rching edit* rial:
The burning f Revivalist Culpep
per’s tent yesterday morning was a
wicked and devilish ouir.ige. The
Turns has no means of knowing who
t ie parties were by whom the- crime
was committed, nor can it fathom the
dark end damnable motive which led
to it.
Why should Mr. Culpiepper be the ob
ject of such vengeful wickedness? He
c .me to Brunswick upon the iuyita
cion of Brunswick peachers and the
members of Brunswick chu r ches.
He is no tramp goiDg where he is not
wanted. He has put himself in touch
with the best pet pie so far as he could
He has not preached tin, his labors wili
not result in making more and worse
criminal?. If any mistake has been
made by him, it is I he mistake of con
-truing moral obligation too l igidly. Is
he to l«« the object of wicked aud cow-
aril y levenge because he preaches to
men sobriety, honesty, pu- ity and re-
I'gion, and because he presents to men
and communities a high and rigid Stan
dard in these things.
Brunswick owes it to her goed name
to catch the perpetrator of this Crime
an 1 rot to let him go unwhipped«.f jus
tice. The Times tbiaks the City Coun
cil should oiler a reward for his detec
tion, arrest, and conviction, and that

SHERIFF COLLIER LEAVES
For New York City—A Theory as to
How the Murder Occurred—
Farmer’s Father Denies
His Son’s Guilt,
James Alexander Farmer was ad
judged sane by the court of investiga
tion in New.York city, and he is now
held in that place until the arrival of
the Sheriff of Jackson county, into
whose custody he «ill be delivered.
Sheriff Collier left yesterday morning
for New York to take charge of his pris
oner and Ir i g him back to Georgia.
Mr. Henry Farmer, of Jackson coun
ty, was in the city yesterday. He s
the father of the alleged murderer. Mr.
Farmer s outly denies the guilt of his
son and says that a fair and impartial
trial .wili demonstrate the truth of his
belief. „
There are two other sons, Tom and
Bob Farmer,who are indicted for rescue.
If the principal is convicted of murder,
they get the same sentence
he gets; if he iB
acquitted, then they are acquitted.
The trials of the murder case and the
two cases for rescue come off in Au
gust, . and will be watched with inter
est.
A Theory Advanced.
There were two tales tc ld at the pre
liminary investigation just after the
killing occurred. It appears that the
three Farmer boys, Drake, McElhan-
non, and a boy named Hawks, wore to
gether. When they reached forks of the
road, according to Hawk’s testimony,
Drake went through the field, and Jim
Farmer followed him. In a few minutes
two pistol shots rang out aud Farmer
ran back to the crowd saying: “You
ought to have seen him run, I scared
him like h—1.”
On the other hand, Farmer’s state
ment and the testimony of his brother-
is tha*. at the forks of the road, Hawks
left the crowd and was not seen by them
any more until the trial.
Between these two strings of testi
mony the Stats and the defense will in
troduce their theories as to the truth of
the matter.

AT THE CAPITA
INTEREST IN THE SILVER DEBATE
STILL IS UNABATED.
THE BILL WILL PASS.
Hen. A. J- Warner, One of the Fathers
of the Free Sliver Movement
on the Floor of the House
Watching: its Fate,
Washington, March 23.—The senate
on a motion of Mr. Sherman went into
exeentive session presumably on the
Bearing sea matter.
The silver debate in the house showed
the intensity of public interest in that
great question which now faces the
fifty-second congress for solution and
threatens to become a political issue in
the x presidential campaign of the
autumn. The floor and the lobbies too,
were well crowded with ex-members
and senators, and on the sofa in the rear
of the hall was seated Hon. A. J. War
ner, well known as one of the fathers of
(he free coinage movement.
The gentlemen who pinned their hopes
on the chances of a compromise at the
last hour by the substitution of a bill
proving for an international monetary
congress are losing courage, and even
the indomitable Tracy, of New York,
concedes that the free coinage bill will
have a clear majority if a final vote is
ever reached on its passage.
After some unimportant routine pro
ceedings the silver bill was taken up.
"I desire to give notice.” said Chair
man Bland at the opening of the debate,
"that at 2 o’clock tomorrow I shall de
mand the previous question on the sil
ver bill and pending amendments. ”
This means merely that the general
debate will close at 2 o’clock tomorrow,
and that a final vote will .hen be taken
on the bill and amendments, nnless its
opponents inaugurate a series of filibus
tering tactics.
INTO MILLIONS.
The Standard Oil Company Runs Its
Capital Stock.
New York, Maroh 23.—The Standard
Oil company has filed a certificate with
the county clerk of Hudson county,
New Jersey, increasing the capital stock
of its New Jersey corporation from $3,-
000,000 to $10,000,000.
These increases of capital would leave
$15,500,000 to be distributed among cer
tificate holders, the profits of the Stand
ard Oil monopolies are enormous.
The exact amount of the income has
always been a carefully guarded secret.
The trust has never been compelled by
law to make fqll reports of its business,
hut those who have means of knowing
say that the individual profits amount
to the attractive figures given above.

Like This,
Capt. John W. Bruinby’s shoe factory
will be iu runn ; ng order iu less tbaa

And when it starts it will turn out
a very huge number of shoes of all
kinds.
Capt. Brumby was seen yesterday
and in a talk with the re
porter said: “I have just received
the last shipment of my new machin
ery, and as soon as it is all in position,
the factory will be in a position to be
gin work. The maebioery is all new,
is of the latest make,'oJ will serye its
purpqse most excel ently.”
“What kind of shoes will be manu
factured, Captain?” was asked by the
repo‘ter.
“Weil, for the greater part, they
will be cheap shoes, nothing more cost
ly perhaps than a tb’ee dollar shoe.
But we propose to turn out a large
number of the best shoes of this grade
to be found air. where on the market.
“How many workmen do you propose
to employ ?”
“The capacity cf ibe factor*r is fifty,
but at pieieat it will be run by twenty
odd workmen. . From time to time this
number will be inciea ed.”
This is an industry that means a
great deal for Athens. It is just such

A discharged cook is supposed to be

The family, consisting of Mr. Ro
mare, his wife and four daughters, ate
breakfast at an esrly hour yesterday, as
is their custom. A peculiar taste was
noted about the coffee by those who
drank i f , but only passing attention
was given the inc dent.
A few minutes later it \v s no 1* ng r

In a yery short while afterward,
however, one of tue young ladies be

took sick.
The doctor found six patients suffer
ing greatly.
Almost immediately he saw that they
had been poisoned, and with tireless
energy set about to relieve them.
. He worked hard, yet it was some
time before he could pronounce the
family entirely out of darger. The
proper remedies were applied, and they
are now res-ing easily.
The sufferers were all the time won
dering what bad caused ir. Suspicion
was directed to the coffee, and a por

for examination.
He at once saw that it had been tam

The bever, ga’was then submitted to
Mr. McCandless, the cheinest. A care

DRUGGED WITH ARSENIC.
The discovery proved a very startling
one to i he already thoroughly alarmed
household. They were at a loss to ac
count fer it and seemed una

could have committed the dastardly
deed that might have ushered six souls
into eternity.
But further invest’gation threw a
cloud of su piciou about the cook.
A few days ago she was informed that
she was to be discharged and since
then she has been unusuallv gruff and

- At that time, Mr. Romare and his

the office and corridors, which were
closely packed with documents, were
flooded to the depth of several inches,
and the dense smoka caused thereby
permeated the entire building, .includ

took some time to clear the hall of
smoke so as not to interrupt the pro

new terrors to the situation for the su

by a small halo, and on either side ap

perhaps 45 degrees from the point of

marked contrast to the hazy clouds with
which the heavens were mol tied, The
brilliant disptav cf Tuesday evening
aud the curioas appearance of the mcou
for some time past make up a seiie3
of phenomena that are
acknowledged by old
sailots and p’.atosmea to be unprece
dented. The moon on one evening this
week had on i‘s face in large clouds a
p ’rfeet figure of a cross.
Last night it was the centre of a bril
liant amoral band, which passed up
ward to the zenith and downward to
horizon. Superstitious people think
that these are the signs that portend
the speedy coming of the last great
day.

perstitious people in this vicinty are
worried over a strange sight in the
heavens. A weil-defioed black croas
appeared across the face of the moon
Those who saw it insist that it was not
caused by the clouds. It was claimed
a similar cross was seen just before the
war.
