Bivins, have left for parts unknown.
Bivins is said to have confessed to
his father, when he went home After
his clothing, that be did the shooting.
Tbe coroner held an inquest Sunday

tbe deceased came to hie death from
gunshot wounds inflicted by George
Bivins.
The Man of Destiny.
If Grover Clevelsnd were president
of these United States something
would happen. Congress would not
have to wait long on Grover. Nearly
three years ago, in his memorable
message in December, 1896, be put
Spain squarely on notice that the time
might come when this government
would intervene in Cuba’s behalf, in
tbe interest of common humanity.
Among other things be said :
“When tbe inability of Spain to
1 deal successfully with the insurrection
shall have become manifest, and it
shall have been demonstrated that
her sovereignty is extinct in Cuba for
all purposes of its rightful existence,
and when a hopeless struggle for its
re-eetablishment ehall have degenerate
ed into a strife that will mean nothing
more than the useless sacrifice of
human life and the utter destruction
of tbe very subject matter of tbe con*
flict, a situation will bn presented in
which our obligations to tLe sovereign*,
ty of Spain will be superseded by
higher obligation, which we can bard*
ly hesitate to recognize and to dis
charge.”—Thomasville Enterprise.
