FOR MANSLAUGHTER.
Sillie Lewis is Bound Over Today iu
the Sum of SI,OOO
This m iri.ing at 10 o'clock tin. j.u.-,
Hminary tri-tl m Sillie Lewis who was
charged wi.h the mnrd.r <4 Eozi
Reid, which occurred ae a Hquel to
het Saturday night’s riot, v, as held
before Justice W. 1). Oarhait and the
result was that she was bound over in
the sum of SI,OOO to await the action
of the grand jury at tho August term
of superior court
The evidence given in was oonfLct
iug iu many respects by’ the courts
council as the defendants cou- sei in
troduced no testimony.
Lue Weldeu, a sister of the deceased,
testified that she wasn’t there when
the fight began, but bad seen both
parties earlier ; she didn’t know just
what was said, but saw S.iiiie Lewis
when she drew the knife and stabbed
her sister; there were three stabbs,
which were as follows: The first iu the
neck, the second in the ehculder and
the third under the arm. Her sister
fell and she started to her, when the
prisoner inn at her with a knife, and
she made her exit from the scene.
She stated that she went with her
sister to Dr. J. T, Nunnally, who
dressed the wounds on Saturday night,
and that the light occurred betwsen 8
and 9 o’clock. She called Dr, Nunnal
ly .< attention to wounds on Sunday
msruing. She testified that Bill Sea
graves was present, but that Charlie
Phillips was ahead, and that she and
Bill were the only competent witness
es, as they alone saw the affair.
Charlie Phillips stated when put on
the stand, that be knew nothing of the
affair, save that he was asked by Eliza
Raid if be had seen Bill Seagraves, and
later on he saw Eliz t and Bill talking
together, when Sallie Lewis called Bill
off He went on until he reached the
bicycle repair shop, on Taylor street,
and saw three women tusseling on th#
corner near the Presbyterian church.
He didn’t know who they were,except
that he recognized Sallie Lewis, and
couldn’t tell what they were doing.
Bill Seagraves made a very clear
statement, saying he was near Pitts’
barber shop talking to Eliza Reid,
when Sallie Lewis came by and called
him. The trouble occurred near Al
len’s store, just at the Presbyterian
church, and where music and dancing
was going on, He stepped in there
for a few moments, and then came out
again. Eliz t Reid pushed him aside,
and while ten steps away, he saw both
her and her sister attack S illie Lewis.
He didn’t go nearer, and swore that
Le never saw either of the three with
anything in their hands, as they were
in (be shadow of the trees.
Dr. Nunnally on being placed on
the stand stated about the wounds
one on the neck, which waa an abrai
eion that might have been made by
the nails; another that was on the
point of the shoulder which was an
inch long that lie dressed on Saturday
night, and in direct controversion of
Lue Weldon’s statement be said that
he never saw a wound under the arm
until at the coroners inquest on
Monday. On cross examination Dr.
Nunnally stated that the wound un
der the arm could have been made af
ter death, and that his opinion in the
matter was based largely upon what
he had heard from the family, and
■ that the woman could have died from
B other causes than lock-jaw, but any
B wound or abrasion would produce it.

AT WARM SPRINGS.
i ■ The Griffin Rifles Are Enjoying Their
Outing l at Camp Davis
- Warm Springs, June 20—The Gris
s du Rifles, forty aitong, officer* and
i men,Surgeon Kelley am! Pimlogra
a pher Hardee, pitched tents at Warm
I Springs Sunday at 12, m. Tho camp
a in t-ilusted in a r-hady grove to the
i south of the hotel, ami up to the pres
i ent has been an ideal camping ground,
i Mr. Davis, the Springs proprietor,
very kindly bad all tho underbrush
- and loaves removed, which saved con
s siderab’.e work ou the part of the men.
• Sunday afternoon in publishing or
ders, the camp was named Camp
, Davis.
i The Springs is by no means a dry
i place, as one would naturally infer,
t and the water, or something, has ef*
s fected the heads and knees of a num
-1 ber.
, There have been no sick and
■j the guard tent has been deserted, ex*
1 C<*j ■. nigh! ■. t !,(■ -■ ml j y
r has beeu occupied by the photographer
I as sleeping apartments.
1 The company musician is certainly
improving in the rendering of his
r music, though most of the men mis-
> take the different calls for mess, and
, think they are to be marched to the
5 hotel where we have our meals.
One tent occupied by the ‘ swells”
i have ordered Electric Lights and
- water put in, and intend to be very
3 exclusive iu selecting their guests.
I Captain Smith was caught in a tight
- place today by two of his men, namely :
in a swing, ai d nut alone. He was
i greeted with three cheers and
j a tiger, when be reached camps, which
i he teceived peacefully.
1 The baths are quite popular and the
; changes it has made iu some is al-
I ready apparent, and a few may possibly
) not be recognized by their friends on
, their return.
II The company gave a drill this after
. noon iu front of the bote), and bad as
t their spectators the guests of the
I Springs, and covered itself with glory
by the exact and prompt execution of
• all orders.
’ The boys on their return will have
, numerous views to ebow their friends
1 of their camp life, such as drees parades
■ and other things
i We are all having a good time, but
; strict military rules and regulations
3 are enforced, including guard
t mounts.
, Wednesday afternoon is the time
j appointed for the abandoning of Camp
. Davis.
Millions Given Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the public to
3 know <>f one concern in the land who are
not afraid to be generous to the needy and
> suffering. The proprietors of Dr. King's
New- Discovery for Consumption, Coughs
and Colds, have given away over ten mill-
f ion trial bottles of this great medicine; aud
, have the satisfaction of knowing it has ab
-1 so'utely cured thousands of hopeless < rises.
Asthma, Bronchitis, Hoarseness and all
diseases of the Throat, Chest and Lungs
1 are surely cured by it. Call on J. N. Ilar

I and get a free trial bottle. Regular size

Manila, June 21—Gen Wheaton

The Hague Conference
, Very little is being said about the
real object for which the Czir’s paace
conference was called. The delegates
appear to be discussing tbs question
of the arbitration of international diftis
cullies. In fact, up to the preeent,
, the greater part of the time of the
> conference has been given to thia sub-
• ject That it is a very important »üb*
( ject there isn’t a doubt, but, as yet,!
there isn’t any certainty that anything
,! in respect to it will be accomplished,
i There are several arbitration propcsi
, ' lions, no one of w bich mr ets with such
general favor as to justify the predic-
I lion that it will bs adopted. Emperor
. ■ William of Germany doesn’t want to
II be bound by any agreement in
I respect to arbitration, and it is a
L question yet whether he will consent
,j to anything that would be a substan-
i tial advancement in tlie direction of
ipeace
As for the real purpose for which
’ ! the conference was called, namely, the
, limitation of the armaments of the
I nations, the indications are that notb
, I ing will I e accomplished. Russia
. | would like to get rid of some of the
1 ' burden which her vast military estab*
- ! lishment imposes upon her, so that
• the could deviUe more of hir revenue
U to internal impreo : nu iJ-, but it looks
s ias if the had no reason to hope for
' j any thing in (hat direction of a sub*
’istantial character from the peace con*
" r i fereuce. The delegates admit that the
! military establishments of the nations
■of Europe are much greater than cau
’i be carried with comfort —tl.at taxes
f for military purposes are making pau
-8 pers of the people, but. they cannot
e agree upon a plan for doing that which
a a'l admit ought to be done.
It is ptetty safe to predict that the
1 conference will accomplish nothing in
• the direction of the purpose fer which
> it w»s calku. There wifi be some Bort
B iof an agreement in t -pct to inter
-1 j national nrbittation, 111 the agreement
U will be of a chaincler that will bind
tlie nations to nothing particular
Such an agreement will be adopted so
t that it will be possible to say that the
conference was not entirely a failure

Where Air Is the Thickest.
Iu a paper contributed to "The!
Transactions of the British Institute
of Preventive Medicine” it is stated i
that, even iu a suburb, the dust par
ticles number some 20,000 per cubic
centimeter in the open air, aud 44,000
in a quiet room ; while in the city the
totals per cubic centimeter were 500,-
000 when taken from a roof, 300,000
in a court, and about 400,000 in a
room, in other words, the air of the
square mile is 900 per cent, thicker
than in the suburbs, which is in ac
cord with the general experience that !
fogs are both more dense and mo:e |
frequent over the center of a city titan !
in the outskirts
But what is especially interesting in
this paper is the statement that, al
though dust is the great carrier of the
micro-jrganiems, there is only one of
these per 38,000,000 of dust atoms.
Thia being so, it is calculated that • i
man could live in the metropolis for
70 years and only absorb 25,000,000 of
microbes into his system from the air,
or the same number as he drinks in a
half-pint of unboiled milk. 1

The pleasant method and beneficial j
effects of the well known remedy,
Syrvp of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fio .Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative ami presenting’
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually, ’
dispelling colds, headaches and fev< i-s 1
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freulom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidney ~
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the Meal (
laxative.
In the process of inanufacturirg tigs
are used, as they are pleasant to the 1
ta-.te. but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
