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 been secured for the week, and the largest crow f ds ever known at this re 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 t Women suffer- j ing from female | troubles and ; jlgL weakness, and j Pai <vurht n rot j nJdoctors cannot A Whelp them. Phy- LI I sieians are so l&tjgJP busy with other diseases th a t plj they do not tin- ments and the delicate organism of woman. What the sufferer ought to do is to give a fair trial to BRADfIEia’S Female RegalsCai' which is the true cure provided by Nat-ure for all female troubles. It is the formula of a physician of the highest standing, who devoted h'S whole life to the study of the dis tinct ailments peculiar to our moth ers, wives and daughters. It is made of soothing, healing, strengthening herbs and vegetables, which have been provided by a kindly Nature to cure irregularity in the menses. Leu corrhnea. Falling of the Womb. Nerv ousness, Headache and Backache. In fairness to herself and to Brad* Meld’s Female Regulator, every suffering woman ought to give it a trial. A large $i bottle will do a wonderful amount of good. Sold by druggists. Send for a nicely ilhiMrated free hook on the subject. 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. * * * Officers of Epworth League. At its session in Savannah the past week the Epworth League of the north Georgia conference elected the follow-- ing officers: President, J. G. McLel lan. of Dalton; vice president, Miss Floride Banks, of Conyers; secretary and treasurer, Colonel J. H. Hamilton, of Atlanta. Teachers’ Examination June Ist.

Bearg the /) Kind You Have Always Boughl rr G&Affflzfo: 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. l ORTHtN AGAIN PRESIDENT. Georgian Is Re-elected By the South ern Baptist Association. The Soutnern Baptist Convention met in New Orleans at 10 o’clock Fri day morning in the First Presbyterian church.
