INEGRO HE HANGED PREDICTED
‘ DEATH OF CALHOUN SHERIFF
“Americng, August 4.—The sheriff of
Calhioun ceounty, Georgia, died several
days ago, and the following uncanny
stery is being told in Americus by a
[ prominent citizen of Calhourn county
’whn vouches for the accuracy of the
statements:
‘ A few ygars ago a negro 'killed a
iwl;ite man on a. turpentine farm in
| Calhoun county. The negro escaped
Iz;ml was at large until about four
imoni]ss ago, when he was captured
}x:vur (learwater, Fla. He was put on
trial and sentenced to he hanged on
'.l!:iy 1%
[ During the negro's incarceration in
the Calhoun county jail, he was look
ed after and waited on by the sheriff.
During this interim the negro became
somewhat attached to the sheriff.
Just a few days prior to the execution,
he told the sheriff that he had receiv
e¢d a presentiment, and requested the
sheriff not to commit the act of hang
ing him, insisting upon someone else
discharging this duty, saying, “I like
you; you have heen good and kind to
me, and if you hang me you will die
in five daye. ‘The good Lord has come
to me in a dreain and told me this.
You are a good man and I don’t want
you to die.” :
The sheriff, of course, hooted at the
idea, and when the day of execution
came he hung the mnegro. Two days
after the negro’s neck had been brok
¢n by the sheriff, according to the man
dates of the law, he was stricken with
paralysis, and on the fifth day after
the hanging he died.

YIELD WILL BE. SHORT—CROP
DAMAGE IN MANY SECTIONS
HELD RESPONSIBLE. i
Chicago, Aug. 4.—Wheat priées
leaped up 7 1-4 cents a bushel today,
driven by reports of a disastrous wid
2ning of crop damage in Canada, thie
Dakotas and Minnesota. It was said
by trade authorities that black rust
havoc in Manitoba amounted to a ca
lamity, the pest also had acquired a
dangerous foothold in Saskatchewan,
‘zu‘u‘l tl'mt the injury from rust and heat
in the fields south of the international
border had gone beyond any prece
dent.
According to estimates.current to
lay, the prospective total yield of
wheat this season in North and South
| Dakota and in Minnesota will not be
half as large as last year and will be
83,000,000 bushels short of the amount
suggested by the United States gov
ernment report a month ago. Thou
sands of acres were declared to be so
hadly smitten as not to be able to re
pray the expenses of harvest.
After continuous rounds of buying
that included much for Europe, the
market just before the end of the
day touched $1.24 1-8@1.24 1-4 at yes
terday’s close. Attempts at wholesale
| realizing of profits caused a wild finish
with September at $1.30 5-8, a net ad
vance of 6 3-B@6 1-2¢ a -bushel.
LABOR AGENTS MUST
PAY -$l,OOO LICENSE
Savannah, Aug. 3.—City council yes
terday passed an ordinance requiring
a li("ense fee of $l,OOO for all en‘ploy~
nent bureaus whose agents send la
horers outside the state.
A fine of $lOO a day for every day
he ordinance is violated is provided.
The new ordinance also provides that
everyone connected with the business
of inducing laborers to leave the state,
whether as owner or employe of the
bureau, shall be amenable to the law.
Alderman W. H. Wright, at whose
‘nstance the ordinance was passed,
addressed council, saying that 5,000
laborers had been shipped from Jack
sonville before the authorities could
put a stop to it and that probably
2,500 able-hodied colored laborers had
already been induced to leave Savan
nah to go North under promises of
many benefits.
