The Sentinel.
The Atlanta Journal issued two
oxtra editions on last Sunday to give
the news of the capture of Sam
Hose.
If the people of Greenville, S. C.,
cannot catch the negro who outraged
Mrs. Williams, of that place, they
can get experienced help from Geor
gia,
Waycross is working hard to get
a sewerage system. The city coun
cil of that place held a meeting re~
cently in order to perfect arrange
ments by which $5,000 might be
borrowed by giving 6 per cent, in
terest.
Mr. George A. Macdonald,
has been general passenger agent
the Georgia Southern and Florida
railroad for a number of years, has
tendered his resignation and will
leave the road on May 1. It is
probable that Mr. C. Rhodes will
succeed Mr. Macdonald.
Any person who desires a pre
mium list of the forthcoming fair,
can secure a copy by dropping a
postal card request to the secretary,
Mr. T. H. Martin, Prudential Build
ing , Atlanta. The hook is not quite
ready for distribution yet, but
shortly will be and all requests
a copy win dc immediately attended
to.
J. B. Jones, who captured the rap
ist Sam Hose, lias received as a re
ward from the Governor of Georgia
for the state $500.00; from the At
lanta Constitution $600.00; from
Jacob Haas, of the Capital City
Bank of Atlanta, $100.00, and from
the people of Coweta county $260.00,
making a total of $1,850.00.
Brother Burton, of the Fitzgerald
Leader, had a short editorial para
graph in a recent issue of his paper
that said: “Papers using original
matter from this paper should give
credit, ‘just to show their intentions
are good, Y Y Y and in the same column
n the same issue prints an article
that is identically the same that ap
peared in the editorial columnn of
The Sentinel two days previous to
the date of tho Lender, ami no credit.
Consistency, where art thou ?
The officials of the Atlanta state
fair to be held in October, say that
the count ies of Floyd, Bartow, Oobb.
Gwinnett, Camden, Hancock, Thom
as and Putnam have applied for
space and announced that thoy will
have exhibits there. What is Dooly
going to do about it? Ours, the
best county in Georgia, should not
fail to be represented at the state
fair.
The State Memorial Board an
nounces that tlie monument erected
by the Stale of Georgia, on tlie
Cliickamanga Battlefield, will lx
dedicated at ten o’clock on the morn
ing of May fourth, 189'.). All Cotn
federate and Federal organizations
throughout Georgia and other states,
and the citizens generally, are invite
ed to attend. It is the earnest wish
of the Board that as many as possi
ble of the citizens and such organic!
nations honor the occasion by their
presence.
The farmers of the State should
not forget that some of the hand
somest premiums in point of size
offered for the fair next fall, is for
Georgia raised meat. In addition
to those that the Agricultural So
ciety has offered, two private firms
will give $100 apiece for the fattest
calf, $25 apiece for the fattest Jamb,
and $25 for the fattest pig.
Tlie Lynching of Sam Hose.
Good white men everywhere de
plore the necessity of lynching, hut
the diabolical crime of the murderer
and rapist, Bam Hose,-the blood of
father, the outrage of mother and
the blood of child,—caused a popular
fury which could not he controlled
by ex-Govemor Atkinson, Judge
Freeman, nor by the power of speech
of any living man, and Bam went the
road pointed out by “Judge Lynch.”
Hose acknowledged the damnable
deed, and the people feel easier now
that he has been put out of the way.
If the following advise from Gov.
Candler is heeded, lynchings will
occur less often, and our colored
friends should heed the advice :
“ Good negroes must be equally act
ive in building up a sentiment in
their race against the diabolical
crimes which are always at the back
of these lynchings. The ministers
and church members and teachers
among the negroes must be equally
active and earnest in their efforts to
build up a healthy public sentiment
against the crimes which provoke
lynchings, as they are to build up a
sentiment against lynthing. The
safety of the negro race demands
this and their leaders must be as
vigilant and active in this direction
as the leaders of public sentiment
among the white race are.”
The Journal apparently has little
confidence in the skill of Atlanta
fishermen. It says: “This is the sea
son of the year when the finny tribe
dance with joy through the glad
waters, when the tread of the At
lanta fisherman is heard on the
velvet shore. They know that the
gross outlay will not exceed the net
proceeds.”
George Kerlln.
The crime alleged *to have been
committed by George Kerlin near
Fayettville is almost as black, if not
more so, than that of Sam Hose.
It George Kerlin is the guilty party,
and it seems that he is, then his
crime is worse than that of Hose, for
the very good reason that he is white,
and from the standpoint of reason
and intellect he is supposed to walk
upon a higher plane. Regardless of
this fact he has shown his nature to
be as bad as that of Hose, in murder
mot FliiU n rrref* d T> 2jf iein iLeThnocenfc g—•‘- 1 — i— 0 f
Miss Pearl
Knott, and it lynching is to be l op
erated , he should go as Sam Hose
went.
“Divorce cases ought to be tried in
open court like all other cases, ’ ’ says
the Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
“This thing of trying them in cham
bers under lock and key, for fear the
facts may be published, encourages
the bringing of trivial divorce pro
ceedings. Furthermore, when a
divorce is granted the law should re
quire the publication of the
merit and the grounds upon which if
was granted. By requiring entire
publicity in such matters the law
would take a long step toward break
ing up the divorce habit.”
The man who suggests to the
author the change of a phrase
usually claims credit for the whole
article. i

the sore or ulcer—known as the Cancer—may be cut away, the
poison remains in the blood, and promptly breaks out afresh, with
renewed violence.
The wonderful success of S. S. S. in curing obstinate, deep-seated
blood diseases which were considered incurable, induced a few de

dreadful affliction, though many years have elapsed. S. S. S. is the only cure

Will Williams to Hang.
The negro, Will Williams, accused
of the killing of a Mr. Peacock.,
Telfair county, was tried last v^ed*.
nesday in the superior court of
Telfair county and found guilty of
murder.
It will be remembered that Wil
liams had an account at Peacocu’s
store and when he went to settle it (dis
agreed with Mr. Peacock as to what
the amount was. The difference
was only fifty cents, but it brought
out some words which ended in a
difficulty. A fight ensued, resulting
in the killing of Mr. Peacock.
In the trial it was proven to be
murder and Williams was sentenced
to be hung May 16. The hanging
will occur at the county seat of
Telfair county.—Macon News.

When a man questions too close
ly the purpose of life he: is apt to
get a very unsatisfactory answer.
Cordeleans, as we have remarked
before, are never surprised at any
thing that happens here, matters
not how unique the occurrence. A
suit is in court here that is not
common in its style. A certain par
ty applied for a loan and not getting
it in time refused it when tendered
him. The lender filed a suit for
damages against the applicant for
not borrowing the money. One of
our neighborly exchanges, comment
ing on this particular case, says that
usually the suit follows the loan, and
the damages accrue when the lender
fails to get his money back.

Out in Kansas
lives a happy wife. She writes: “ I
have used Mother's Friend before
two confinements. The last time I had
twins, and was in labor only a few min
utes. Suffered very little.” The reason
why
i father’s Friend
«oes expectant mothers so much
rgbod is because it is an external liniment,
to lie applied upon the outside, where
much of the strain comes. It helps be
~uuse the pores of the skin readily absorb with
rl^ and it comes into direct contact
and is absorbed by the parts involved.
Morning sickness is quickly banished,
and nervousness is kept completely foreboding away.
The sense of dread and is not
experienced, even during labor itself.
Confinement is short and almost without
pain. Recovery is quick and sure. Best
of all, Mother’s Friend benefits the
unborn just as much as the expectant it
mother, and when the little one comes
will be strong, lusty and healthy.
Druggists sell Mother's Friend lor $1 a bottle.
