THE WEEKLY NEWS, CARTERSYILLE, GA.
GEORGIA CULLINGS
A Brief But Intersting Summary
of Happenings in the State.
Georgia Students Honored.
State School Commissioner G. R.
Glenn Saturday appointed six Georgia
students at the Peabody Normal col
lege at Nashville, Term., to scholar
ships under the Peabody fund, which
will give them the remainder of their
education at that institution practi
cally free of cost Professor Glenn
received notice from President Payne
that there were six vacant scholar
ships for Georgia at the normal col
lege for the coming year.
To fill these vacancies President
Payne nominated the following, who
are now students at the college, pay
ing their way, and they were notified
by Professor Glenn of their appoint
ment: Mina Riount, of Atlanta; Alba
L. Brewer, of Calhoun; William D.
Green, of Butler; Charles W. Richards,
of Sumach; James M. Stovall, of Don
alsonville, and Katherine Thornton, of
Americus.
The scholarship practically pays all
the expenses of the student while at
the normal college, in addition to rail
road fare to and from Nashville. There
are now about fifty students from
Georgia at this institution, though all
but sin are paying their own evpenses.
That, has been the case with those just
appointed up to the resent time, but
during the coming year "Jhey will have
the advantage of the scholarship, as
stated.
The Peabody Normal College has a
fund of $45,000 or $50,000 annually
from which the expenses of these
scholarships are paid. There is great
competition for them among the stu
dents from all the states represented,
and the selections made by the chan
cellor are based upon merit in the
work done.
* * *
To rievlse Military Laws.
The military laws of Georgia are to
be revised and put into convenient
shape.
Adjutant General J. W. Robertson
has issued an order by direction of
the governor appointing Colonel A. R.
Lawton, retited, of Savannah; Colonel
W. E. Wooten, of the Fourth Georgia.
Albany, and Colonel George N. Napier,
judge advocate general, Monroe, as a
board to do this important work, in
accordance with the recommendation
of the military advisory board.
It has been a good many years since
the military laws of the state were co
dified, and they have within recent
years been so extensively amended and
added to that it is difficult to keep up
with them. This fact led to the action
on the part of the military advisory
board requesting the governor to ap
point a commission of officers to make
the necessary revision.
* * *
Third Georgia Encampment.
It is probable that the Third Georgia
encampment this summer will go to
Washington, Ga. That place has bid
SI,OOO, free lights, water and site. Ath
ens and Augusta, the other two places
under consideration, do not seem to
desire to go ahead of the figures set
by Washington. This question will be
decided at an early date.
New Georgia Post Offices.
The post office department has es
tablished the following new post of
fices in Georgia:
Gailey, in Banks county; Homer, six
miles southeast; Lula, six miles north
west. This office has been discontin
ued for some time, but the department
officials have decided to reopen it for
business, with Marcus S. Patoon as
postmaster. And Hodge, in Carroll
county; special from Carrollton and
Crossplains three and one-half miles
south, Sandhill four miles north. Char
ley B. Williams has been appointed
postmaster.
The following Georgia post offices
have been ordered discontinued: Ab
salom, Hall county; Storeville, For
syth county, and Woolley’s Ford, in
Hall county. These offices have been
superseded by rural free delivery from
Gainesville.
* * *
No Decision Before May 20.
It has been announced that the su
preme court win not make known any
decisions before the 20th of this
month. The case against tae board of
health of Atlanta for tearing up the
floor of the depot has created a great
deal of interest the decision of
the supreme court is looked forward
to with much eagerness.
* * *
Indian Springs Chautauqua.
The managers of the Indian Spring
Chautauqua have about completed
their programme for the great Chau
tauqua to be held at this noted resort
July 7-14, and some of the most prom
inent lecturers, entertainers and musi
cal organizations in the country have

sort are expected.

Big Land Suit Filed.
An interesting land suit, containing
sensational allegations, was filed in
the United States court at Macon the
past week by attorneys for Mrs. Caro
line A. Kilgore, of JJtah Territory;
Mrs. Arminia T. Anderson, of DeKalb
county, Ala., and her fifteen year old
son, S. Robert H. Anderson, against
J. B. Norman, Jr., of Colquitt county.
The suit involves the ownership of
nineteen lots of valuable land, consist
ing of 490 acres each, a total of 9,310
acres, all lying in the county of Col
quitt, but originally in the county of
Irwin, and then Thomas. Some of the
land is heavily timbered, and has been

The Bradfkld Regulator Cos., Atlanta. Ga.
and is being worked by lumber compa
nies and individuals. The plaintiffs
claim ownership of the lands, though
some of the defendants also claim
ownership thereto, and others are les
sees and renters.
The purpose of the suit of the plain
tiffs is to have the court to decree the
title to the lands to be in plaintiffs
and to award the plaintiffs damages
for all timbers removed from the lands
and for rent and use of land. They
pray for an injunction, etc. Judge
Bpeer has issued a temporary injunc
tion restraining defendants from dis
posing of any of the lands, or cutting
and removing any timber therefrom,
and directs that defendants show
cause before him on June 28th next
why the injunction should not be made
permanent. The case will no doubt
be fought hard on both sides.
* * *
Vets Must Furnish Proofs.
Captain W. H. Harrison, secretary
of the board of trustees of the Sol
diers’ home, has sent to all the ordi
naries of the state in counties where
there are applicants for admission to
the Soldiers’ home blanks upon which
the proper proofs must be made as re
quired by law by all confederate veter
ans who have applied for admission
to the home.
Upon these blanks it must be certi
fied that the applicant for admission
to the home had a good character as a
soldier in the confederate army, and
that he has resided in the state for a
period of five years preceding the fil
ing of his application.

Tax Returns Unsatisfactory.
Tax returns ot large railroad sys
tems of Georgia are receiving close
scrutiny from the comptroller. In sev
eral instances it is stated that the re
turns of the roads are too small and
the comptroller has refused to accept
some of the returns. He will ask that
more itemized statements of the tax
able property of the companies be giv
en to him.
The comptroller asserts that the re-
I turns of several systems are unsatis
factory and in these cases the returns
, have been sent back to the roads with
the request that the faults be reme
died.

IRISH PAPER SEIZED
Contained Scathing Denunciation
Oi iiis Koval Nibs, lidward.
j
EPITHETS LAVISHLY EMPLOYED
Polluted Hero, Bald-Headed P.oue and
Genteel Perjurer Were Some
of the Choice Expressions
Used 1 By Editor.
Advices from Dublin state that the
police of Cork, Limerick and other
towns of Ireland seized all the copies
of William O’Brien's weekly paper,
"The Irish People, found at the news
dealers Friday. The offending article,
it now appears, was an abusive attack
on King Edward. It was as follows:
"Down upon his knees before an old
and baldheaded roue, lover of every
woman of fair features who has ap
peared in English society for forty
years, including titled dames and as
yet untitled actresses —the English
gentleman perjurer of a historic di
vorce case, the polluted hero of one
of the malodorous scenes in Zola's
rotten novel, ‘Nana,’ the center of a
score of the most disgraceful scandals
of the most contemptible type, down
in front of this English king, whose
latest public performance was to stig
matize on his solemn oath the whole
Catholic world as superstitious idola
ters, knelt the English-born cardinal
prince of the church with a document
that might have been presented to a
Degree in a southern plantation fifty
years ago, hut not by an Uncle Tom,
poor hut contented, of Harriet Beech
er Stowes great story, would have
seeu his black skin stripped off inch
by Inch rather than put his mark to
a document like that signed and pre
sented by Cardinal Vaughan and the
duke of Norfolk on his solemn oath.
“We do not believe he attached the
slightest solemnity to the perform
ance. But the fact remains—this old
and worn out descendant of a race of
scoundrels and practical professors of
hideous immorality asseverated that
the most of the sacred doctrines of the
Catholic faith were idolatrous and su
perstitious. He has not yet recanted.
He has not rsid a word to indicate he
did not thoroughly approve of the
terms of the oath framed in the days
of Titus. The oath of a perjurer is no
less vile than that of the reigning
king; but, on bended knees, the prince
of the church knelt before this unut
terably abominable person. Let us
i console ourselves with the fact that
j the presentees were English Catholics,
; who are repudiated by the only really
I Catholic nation now in existence. The
loyalists represented England only,
and if the English Catholics choose
to acknowledge themselves supersti
tious idolaters, it is no fault of ours.”
The police of London are suppress
ing copies of the paper forwarded be
fore the office in Dublin was seized.
Dillon Denounces Seizure.
A London special says: At the con
clusion of the questions in the house
of commons John Dillon (nation
alist), moved the adjournment cf the
house in order to call attention to the
seizure of The Irish People.
Mr. Dillon complained that, the ac
tion of the authorities was grossly ille
gal. He said he was not eoncerned to
defend the violence of the attack, but
any seizure should have been done
through the courts. Far more violent
attacks on Queen Victoria had been
made in the English papers without
being seized. The present action was
a blow at the liberty of the press.
The motion for an adjournment was
defeated by a vote of 252 to 64.
The morning papers of Ixradon are
unanimous in denouncing the scanda
lous attack of The Irish People upon
the king; but serious doubts are rais
ed as to the wisdom of , Mr. Wynd
ham’s action in seizing the paper—
first, because the seizure was illegal,
it being a case for prosecution; sec
ond, because to the delight of the
Irish members :t has giver: world
wide publicity to Mr. O’Brien’s hither
to little known paper and will he, the
nationalists claim, worth thousands of
dollars to them from American sym
pathizers
LIFE SENTENCE FOR WALL.
Three Witnesses In Murder Case
Jailed Under Perjury Charge.
At Tallulah Falls, Ga., Friday morn
ing Chubb Wall was convicted in the
Rabun superior court of the murder
of Christopher O'Byrne, with a rec
ommendation to mercy. Judge Estes
sentenced him to life imprisonment.
After the examination of six Atlanta
witnesses had been delivered James
O’Byrne, brother of the murdered
man, swore out warrants against ex-
Detective Mahaffey, G. W. Crusselle
and E. W. E. Williams, charging them
with perjury. All three of them were
arrested and jailed.
PRIZE PORKERS BOUGHT.
Vanderbilt’s Biltmore Farm Stocked
With English Pigs.
The Biltmore, N. C., pig farm was
augmented Friday by the arrival of
thirty-two Berkshire pigs valued at
SB,OOO. They were purchased by R.
Gentry in England of the leading
breeders, and represent all the lead
ing prize winners. No hog was boOght
whose pedigree is not full of prize win
ning. Some sows weigh 900 pounds.
A SPECULATIVE PARSON.
Lost Money Belonging to His Fleck
and Is Called to Time.
A Chicago dispatch says: R<v. S.
A. Harris, for several years nntH re
cently pastor of the Congregational
church at Millburn, 111., has been sus
pended from the ministry for six
months pending an investigation of
charges which are made by his former
parishioners, who declare they arc out
over SIOO,OOO which they had intrusted
to the minister for speculations that
are said to have turned out unfortun
ately.
Mr. Harris was at one time a law
yer in Chicago and a member of the
hoard of trade
Mr. Harris and his friends assert
that no blame can be attached to him;
that the funds were put into his hands
that, ho might do the best he could to
increase them, and that the going
w'rong of the various enterprises in
which the money was sunk was no
fault of his.
