JUNE 25,
Perky, Ga., June 2*2.—The twen
tieth d»V, counting Sundays, of tlit*
Woolfolk trial opened this morning at
8 :'K) with Mr. Rutherford still speak
ing.
iie has spoken 11 hours and 55 min
utes, and the immense crowd of specta
tors are apparently as much interested
in his arguments as when he com
menced. It io not definitely known at
what hour he will close this' afrernoon.
The jurors are apparently giving him
their individual attention. The prison
er wears the same careless, indifferent
manner and- look, and the crowd is
paying him very little at ten* ion.
The crowd, is very large and bids fair
to be larger this afternoon. Ladies in
large numbers are out to-day. The
special train from Fort Valley was
again run to-day.
There is a likelihood of not terminat
ing the trial : before 3Ionday night or
Tuesday morning.
Juror J: T. Lane wa^neverin a court
house before he .was summoned 'here as
a talis juror.
It is thought that Rutherford . will
probably dose at about 4 o’clock this
afternoon. lie spoke ten hours and’a
half at the former tria}, and if he closes
at 4he will have spoken fourteen hours
an 1 twenty minutes.
It is apparent to the spectators that

no faith in the healing powers of a
madstone. Dr. Small had a number of
line dogs. They became mad and now
only one or two survive, and they fhow
symptoms of rabies. The doctor has
offered $500 to any one who will allow
himself to be bitted by one of them in
order, to. test the powers of the mad-
stone, A. L. Sherman,-of this city, has
accepted.the challenge and is to allow
himself to be bitten by dne of the inad
dogs. lie is then to be treated by the
mudstone in the posession of J. M. Dick
son, of this city.

however,, a dispatch from Sedalia has
been'receivpd which says that an Ar
kansan, who refused to give his name,
called upon Dr Small to-day, announced
his willingness to make tlio test of his
mad dog if the $500 offered was paid first

from his offer. The advocates of the
madstone cure are jubilant.

Washington, D. C., June 21,18S9.—
President Harrison is annoyed at the
criticism in some newspapers upon his
Sunday trips. He is quoted by a friend
as'saying of them today : ‘‘Don’t you
think they are utterly unreasonable?
As you know, no one is more solicitous
for the proper observance of the Sab
bath than I am, and no one would be
more scrupulous about his own conduct
in this respect than I have been, yet
these uewspapers are trying to make
people believe that I have suddenly be
come grossly inconsistent in this regard.
They know just howls is. They know
that l have no other time for rest, and
they know that I must have rest if I am
to keep on-with my work too, and when
I-have gone down the river over Sunday
I have done nothing but rest, except
to go to church.. So they have to misrep
resent the facts in order to base a charge
against ine. It is. unjust and unreasona
ble. •

there are colored Farmers’ Alliances met
this morning in the courthouse to per
fect a State organization. The asso
ciation in this State is a branch of the
“Colored Farmers’ National Alliance
an! Co-operative Union.” The Order
seems to have been first founded in
Texas, and has rapidly spread over
eighteen States. Superintendent K.
M. Humphrey,who is a Carolinian, and
graduated at Furman in 1S5S, reports
that there are now 358 Sub-Allianees
throughout the State, with a member
ship of 40,090. The Order has 575,000
members in the United States.
President Carey in his inaugural ad
dress emphatically asserted that the Al
liance had uo political significance and
was altogether without political pur
poses. Self-protection and co-operation,
lie said, was the Alliance's aim, and not
pliotics. lle strongly advised the en-
groes to let politics alone, and insisted
that it was their sore experience that
nothing was to be gained from politics.
He said tlieie are now thirty-six sub-
organizations in the state, with one su
perintendent.
The purpose of to-day’s session is to
perfect a State organization $nd organ
ize or make preparations for the organ
ization of a State Exchange. It is the
intention of the Alliance to establish
their Exchange at the place which of-

in speaking of President Harrison said:
I don’t want to appear on record as ex

I ean tell you wbitt a certain distinguish

stones. Seeking Dr. White for a wit
ness he proceeded to Dr. Small’s resi
dence. There he gained access to the
rabid animal.
The dbg was writhing horribly,foam
ing freely and snapping viciously. It
was in the midst of a terrible convul
sion and evidently in the last stage of
rabies. The rash man boldly bared his
arm, deliberately stepped up to the fu
rious animal and received a bite. The
animal buried its venemous fangs in the
flesh of the man’s arm, bit out a chunk
of fiesli, leaving a gaping and ghastly*
wound. The dog died in convulsions
fifteen minutes later. The man repair
ed to Dr. White’s offieeand applied the
Doctor’s madstone. It adhered several
times. The man. had his wound bound
up, and expressed himself as satisfied
that he would recover speedily and
safely.
Though the dog was dead this was
not the end of Dr. Small’s propositions.
Acceptances began to pour in, not only
by mail, but by telegraph. Up to date
he has had to pay out several dollars in
receiving telegrams. Among those who
telegraphed was a woman in Kansas
City who wanted to be bitten. She ask
ed if women came under the rules of
the proposition and wanted to come on
the next train if so. J. W. Dickson, of
Kansas City, the owner of a madstone,
wrote by mail and wanted to be bitten.
He wanted the dog taken to Kansas
City, and offered to put up a forfeit of
$1,000 to bind him to he bitten. In case
Dr. Small would not or could not take
the dog to Kansas City he signified his
willingness to eome to the dog and
bring his madstone with him. Mr.
Dickson claims to have cured 1,320 peo
ple bitten by* mad dogs with his single
madstone in twenty years. “ His stone
was brought by his father from Ireland,
and cau be traced back, he say’s', to the
.year 1719. -He further wrote to Dr.
Small and returned the challenge.
The dog is dead now, and this puts an
end to the notoriety to be gained by
cranks who waut to be bitten by mad
dogs.
The man who was bitten is well and
hearty now, but fears are entertained
for his future. Doctor Small thinks his
mind is affected.
