Quillian; Osgood, Berrien county, J. J. L. Phillips. * * * Biackshear Gets College. The trustees of the Presbyterian High School of the Savannah Presby tery decided at their meeting a day or t\#o ago to locate the college at Black shear. Biackshear and Baxley were the only towns that made any positive bids. Valdosta was represented at the meeting, but that city only made a contingent offer, while Biackshear came up with the grounds, a building and £B,OOO in hard cash, with Baxley a close second, offering the grounds and $7,000 in money. The school will be opened up in Oc tober in the building now occupied by the Biackshear school. Later on anew building will be erected at a cost c£ $13,000, the presbytery supplying the additional $5,000. The matter of a college for South Georgia will be prosecuted with vigor, and at the Georgia synod in November the state will be asked to assist in the establishment of the institution in one of the South Georgia towns, probably Waycross or Valdosta. * * * Storm Did Great Damage. The rainstorm which visited Sumter county the past week was most disas trous in its effects. A great many small trees were blown down and gar dens were greatly injured by the steady geating of the rain. Reports have been received which show that the farmers suffered greatly. Fields of oats and wheat which were shoul der high were completely destroyed by the terrific storm. Farmers were preparing to harvest their crop in a few days, but now they have none to harvest Cotton and other grain also were beaten into the ground and the dam age to them was large. Grain which had been stacked in the fields for several days were also damaged considerably. The fruit orchards near Americus were struck by the storm also and were seriously injured. * * * To Camp at Warm Springs. It has been positively decided that the Second Georgia regiment will en camp at Warm Springs about ten days. Fuly ten of the twelve companies will go into camp and Colonel Huguenin expects that each of the companies will go with full rank. * * * Result of Tech Mutiny. As the result of mutinous conduct at the Technological school the past week two students were expelled and four suspended by action of the faculty in executive session. The trouble was thoroughly investigated and the fac ulty decided that the six students in question were responsible. The names of the students are omitted. The sus pension of the four boys will continue in force until October. * * McWhorter Gets Appointment. Hon. Fleming G. dußignon, of Sa vannah, has resigned his position of trustee of the State University, giv ing as his reason for resigning the fact that he has, since the death of Governor Atkinson, held the office in practically a dual capacity—as trustee from the state at large also as ex-offi cio member of the board. Governor Candler has appointed Hon. Hamilton McWhorter, of Lex ington, to fill the vacancy. Mr. Me- Whorter, it is said, was recommended for the appointment some time ago when it was thought Mr. dußignon would resign for the reason stated. He is one of the best known lawyers of Georgia, having for several years held the position of judge of the north ern judicial circuit. He is at present one of the attorneys for the Southern Railway Company and is president of the Augusta Southern, one. of the Southern’s new purchases. Judge McWhorter is a graduate of the State university and one of its most earnest friends. He has done much for the institution in a quiet way and has aided materialy in raising the centennial endowment fund which will be presented tp the university the coming commencement. * * * Third Regiment Encampment. The Third regiment, Georgia state troops, has selected Washington, Ga., as a site for their encampment this year. Athens also wanted the encamp ment, but Washington made the best offer, and the regiment will go there for a week or more about the middle of July. Washington’s offer was very liberal. They offered the regiment S3OO in cash and agreed to fix up the camping ground, putting in the necessary water mains and electric lights and have the grounds ready for ocupaney July Bth. The committee from the regiment also visited Athens, hut hpjiring^jnrilliijTAJL- Women are Like faffcAVOrC Healthy andTtrong B they blossom and bloom. Sickly, they w ther and die.

Railroad rates of 1 cent per mile have been secured, and the encamp ment will cost each company from $(0 to $75. This amount is much smaller than usual. * * * Litigation Nearing End. The end of the litigation is In sight in the case of the Southern Mutual Building and Loan Association, which went into the hands of a receiver in Atlanta four years ago. Judge Lumpkin is preparing an opin ion on the exceptions to the report of the master, and it will probably be handed down in a few days. This opin ion will direct the disposition of the assets of the concern and will con clude the litigation, unless an appeal from the opinion is made to the su preme court. Even if that is done, it is expected that the matter will he terminated in a few months. There are two receivers for the con cern in Georgia—Judge James A. An derson, of Atlanta, and M. A. O’Byrne, of Savannah, both having been ap pointed by Judge Lumpkin. L. D. Pal mer, of Nashville, is also an ancillary receiver. The business of the concern in Tex as, Mississippi, South Carolina, Flori da and Alabama was also placed in the hands of receivers. The business in the first three named states has been wound up and is nearly so in the two latter. It is announced that the receivers have about slou,uoo in bank in Geor gia. Nearly all of the unsold property Is in this state, but there is a portion in Florida and Tennessee. * * * Resort to Arbitration.

PITTA RD, , Tax Receiver Bartow County, v i:vh 1X in “’ PRESIDENT BACK AT CAPITAL Mrs. McKinley’s Condition Is Still Very Precarious and Considera ble Anxiety Is Felt. The train bearing the president and Mrs. McKinley and the party accom panying them on the tour through the west,, ended with its arrival in Wash ington at 7:30 o clock Thursday morn ing. exactly on schedule time. Mrs. McKinley was removed to the carriage in waiting and driven slowly to the white house. She looked pale and wan, the natural result of the grave ordeal through which she recently has passed. No demonstration marked any por tion of the early morning run of the presidential train toward Washing ton. A few people were gathered at points along the way, hut there were none but silent greetings, in accord with the spirit that has prevailed among the crowds past whom the train has run since the start homeward. Several hundred Washington people lined the sidewalks. A police cordon of a score or more of men were early on the scene and stationed at inter vals along both sides of the track re served for the train. Owing to the early hour, perhaps, only a few offi cials were present. The train was run on to a track in the middle of Sixth street, just outside of the Penn sylvania station, and the presidential carriage was drawn up alongside. President McKinley was on the platform as the train rolled In and bowed to a few who lifted their hats in silent salute. Mrs. McKinley was removed from the private car Olympia to a carriage on a chair borne by the president and Dr. Rixey, assisted by several others. Several members of the cabinet stood alongside ready to lend a helping hand. Mrs. McKinley was slowly lifted into the carriage and made comfortable. On arrival at the white house, the president and Dr. Rixey, aided by at tendants, carefully lifted Mrs. Mc- Kinley in a chair and carried her slow ly into the white house and to her apartments. Much anxiety is felt at the white house as to the condition of Mrs. Mc- Kinley. Thursday evening her case was re garded as serious enough to justify the calling in of Dr. W. W. Johnston, one of the most distinguished ’’last resort” physicians in the vicinity. Surgeon General Sternberg, of tb“ army, was also called in consultation and the gravest apprehensions are felt as to what the result may be. The journey home from California is said to have been made at the earnest solicitation of Mrs. McKinley. SWEPT TO WATERY GRAVES. Party of Seven Happy Merry Makers Carried Over River Dam to Cruel Death. A rowboat containing a merry party of eight young persons was swept over Flat Rock dam in the Schuylkill river near Philadelphia Thursday af ternoon and seven of them—Five girls and two boys—were drowned. Only one of the occupants, a young maa, was saved. Heavy rains had made the .nuddy stream quite high,, and tne current was much swifter than usual. The hoy doing the rowing decided to go through the locks, and as he ap proached the dam he was hailed by the lock keeper not to approach any closer. The young oarsman attempted to turn the boat, which was then about fifty feet from the dam, but he turned the wrong way. Realizing then, for the first time that they were in dan ger, the girls began screaming, and the oarsman lost control of the boat. Swiftly it was carried toward the brink of the falling waters, and just as it reached the breast of the dam, the entire eight stood up and the bOt went over stern first. The drop to the rocks below is ap proximately twelve feet. The boat struck the water bottom up, and as it disappeared the whole party were un der it. Nothing more was seen by the few persons who saw the accident, for almost a minute, when the boat reap peared with one boy clinging to its keel. Then the other young man was seen to come to the surface and make a frantic effort to reach shore by swimming. The six girls never rose to the surface. WALDERSEE LEAVES CHINA. Departure of Field Marshal Attended By a Great Farewell Demonstration. The departure of Field Marshal Count Waldersee from Pekin Monday was marked by a great military dis play by the allied troops, the booming ef artillery and the playing of bands. The entire diplomatic body escorted ;he field marshal to the depot. Von Rauch, the aid de camp and lephew of Count Von Waldersee, will remain to escort Prince Chun, the em peror’s brother, to Berlin, where he will formally apologize in behalf of China for the murder of Baron Von Xettler. Chaffee and Troops at Nagasaki. The war department was informed Saturday by cable that General Chaf fee. with his troops on the transport Sumner, rfad arrived at Nagasaki on the way to Manila. Brooklyn Goes to New Zealand. The navy department received a ca blegram from Admiral Remey announc ing his departure from Auckland for Wellington, N. Z., aboard his flagship, SOLDIERS RUN RIOT In Maddened Fnry They Wreck a Saloon at San Francisco. AN EXCITING BATTLE ENSUES Trouble Only Quelled When Firemen Turned Hose on the Crowd. Comrade Was Drugged and Caused Row. Soldiers to the number of 500 or 600 Indulged in a riot at San Francisco Saturday night and wrecked one of tho many drinking places just outside the Presidio reservation. There are many conflicting stories as to the origin of the trouble. The soldiers of the Forty-sixth volunteer infantry were mustered out of the ser vice Friday and the men given their discharges and pay. Most of the men had several hundred dollars coming to them and they did considerable drink ing in the Presidio resorts. A man by the name of Morgan, of the Forty-sixth, was found unconscious in front of Mrs. Power’s saloon. Two of Morgan’s companions took him to camp for treatment. The physicians pronounced it a case where drugs had been administered. The news spread rapidly about the camp and soon there were a dozen or more men running to Mrs. Power's saloon. They demanded reparation for the drugging of their comrade, but any knowledge of the affair was denied. Two or three men lounging about the place sided in with the woman and ordered the soldiers from the premises. They went back for reinforcements and spread the re port that two of their companions had been killed in this saloon. A mob made up of members of the Forty-fifth and Forty-sixth regiments, then rushed pell-mell through the Pre sidio gates to the saloou, which was entirely -wrecked. The place caught fire from the over turned lamps. One of the bartenders was severely beaten and cut. There were threats to lynch him when a squadron of cavalry and provost guard of sixty men from the Forty-fifth ar rived and rescued him. The efforts of the cavalry and guard to disperse the crowd were futile until the fire department turned the hose upon them. This and the entire guard cf the post helped to restore order. A careful investigation of the report that some of the soldiers had died from drugged liquor proved that such was not the case. Morgan, of the For ty-sixth regiment, was the only man whom it is thought might have been the victim of a drug. COSTLY MAIL PACKAGE MISSING, Consigned to Bank at Great Bend, Kan., With SB,OOO, But Disappeared. A special from Kansas City, Mo., says: A package containing SB,OOO in currency was consigned two weeks ago by registered mail from the Na tional Bank of Commerce of Kansas City to a bank in Great Bend, Kan., and it has never been delivered. The officials at the post office deny any knowledge of the matter, but inspec tors have been at work on the case since May 13th, when investigation was made at Larned. It appears that the theft must have been committed in the post office at Kansas City, the reg istry branch at the union station, or at the post office in Larned. By some mistake the registered mail for Great Bend was inclosed in the inter-registered sack for Larned, and when the postmaster at Larned opened the pouch he found that there had been a mistake by the registry depart ment at the union station here. It would be impossible for the railway postal clerks to have opened the regis tered pouch without detection, as the pouch was locked with a rotary lock, which is numbered, and every time the pouch is opened the lock registers a number higher than the one shown before. The postmaster at Larned says that he received the pouch and gave his receipt for it and that the contents did not include the package of money. The conclusion arrived at by the post office officials is that the package was taken before the pouch left the Kansas City office. MAJORITY HAVE STRUCK. Reports Show that Over Half of South ern’s Machinists Are Out. Reports receive Thursday by the Southern railway officials showed that more than half of the machinists em ployed at the Southern’s shops at Charleston, Atlanta, Knoxville, Selma. Columbia, Spencer, Manchester and Birmingham are out on a strike. The advices announce that there is no trou ble at the Alexandria, Memphis and Lawrenceville shops and all the men there are at work. About 500 men are employed by the Southern in all its shops. The reports do not state the exact number of strikers. WAR FACTS WITHHELD. Success cf Beers In South Africa Kept From British Public. British newspapers which usually support the guvernment continue to grumble, says tne correspond ent of The New York Tribune, because the British, public are being kept in ignorance of the real fac t3 of the war in South Africa. The Boers appear to be making steady progress in the
