HE WAS FOUND I HANGING BY THK NECK TO THK END OK A STRONG HEMP ROPE. Life Was Gone, and His Captors Had Fled. Macon, Ga., Oct. 18.—About three miles from the city, at the suburb of Vineville. just beyond Crump’s park, tbe dead body of Will Singleton, a ne gro about 20 years old, was found at tached to the end of a ropo, which bad been adjusted to a stout limb of a tree, aud, on examination the negro was found to be dead, evident'} having been lynched. The particulars are about as fol lows. Four weeks ago be attempted to as sault a beautiful young white girl, ag ed 16 years, who had come to Macon from a distant city to visit relatives. She arrived on the East Tennessee train at 10:30 p. m., and expected to be met by relatives, but they had look ed for her by the Central train at an earlier hour, and did not meet her, sbe having missed connection at Atlanta. Beiug a stranger, she did not desire to go to a hotel. Policemen Brown and Daniels suggested that she go to a hotel, but she prefered going to her relatives. They put her in a hack driven by Will Singleton, who was thought to ho reliable. Instead of taking her to her relatives’ home lie carried her considerably past there into a by-road, to a lonely spot, and then made an insulting proposition to her. Hr Threatens to Kill Her. She commenced to scream, and he drew his knife and rubbed it agaiust her face, and threatened to kill her. She continued to scream. He said: “D—n you, you can scream, hut no one ran bear you in this lonely spot, at 11 o’clock at night.” He then attempted to draw her from the hack to accomplish her base pur pose. She resisted him so stoutly that he was uuahle to pull her from the hack or succeed iu his villaiuous deed. Iu the struggle her dress was torn to pieces, and her body badly bruised. Finding that he could not conquer her stole S4O from her jacket, and then drove the hack within 200 yards of the house where her relatives lived, and told her that was the place she was seeking, and said if she told any one of what had happened that he would come at night aud kill her. She got out of the hack, and when she reached the front door, fell fainting into a relative’s arms. She has been nervously prostrated over since that awful night. The Fiend was Followed. Singleton fled at once, but Detective Pattersou followed him to Atlanta, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Lexington, Louisville, Nashville and to Birming ham. Singletou went from Birmsug ham to Eufaula to participate in the colored firemen’s tournament. It was thought he would go to Eufaula, so officers were on the watch there and caught him on the streets of Eufaula, while takiug in the firemen’s parade, lie was put in jail and requisition pa pers obtained and the officers started to Macon with the demon. When the train reached Walden, about ten miles from Macon, a party of men boarded it and rescued Singleton from the officers. He was carried in a buggy through the country and brougut to the suburbs of this city. About 11 o’clock Friday night he was thoroughly indentified by Officer Brown as the hackman into whose hack the officers assisted her on that fatal night. Singleton was then brought before the young lady and she instantly recognized him aud exclaimed: “He’s the man, he’s the man!" and covering her face with her hands she cried; “Oh, take him away; Oh. take him away!" He was taken away ns soon as possible, and the next thing heard of his whereabouts has been briefly told. Many Persons are broV® down from overwork or household cares.

Mu Editor :—This cool evening I thought 1 could enjoy myself by scraieh ing you a few lines. This lias been the best day for cotton in three weeks I was picking in laige cotton to day, the sun did not shine on me but little I said 1 was picking, but not so much cotton did l get. I was down uudei there hunting cotton but I only found lotten bolls, the wet and cloudy weath er has injured cotton badly. Hands can pick little over half as much now as they could three weeks ago. Well, 1 have no local news, the wreck, killed and wounded at Barhams ginnery is already published. The wounded, I believe, are all improving, i will tell you a little about the 18, qf September last. I being seventy years old that day, and as I could on ly, get half of my children, grand chil dren, aud great grand children togeth er that day. I thought I would cele brate the day by giving them what is called a turkey dinner. Some of them were fiom Louisiana, some from Ala bama, the balance of Georgia—twenty six iu all. So we hustled around and found the turkey and Mrs. S. found some chickens and other things neces sary to make the occasion a success, and I think everything was accom plished that required notice but one thing, aqd that was I proposed to eat seventy mouthfuls of everything that we had, but it was objected to on ac count of my abdominal capacity being so extended that I would not be a fit subject before an artists camera. So the day passed off with ease and pleas ant feelings, and good will to all. The most remarkable feature of the occa sion was the celebration of my seven fir»t birth day before I was seventy years old. As this is my first communication since the nomination of county officers, I must return my best wishes and sin cere gratitude to those who gave me their support over the county, and if possible my appreciation would run iiigher for Locust Grove and Tussahaw and I assure those who voted against me, they have lust none of my kindest feeling aud sincerity of friendship, tak ing it for granted they voted their best judgment for the best interest for the county, and not for prejudice or boun- ty. Well, tho great day is coming, the fourth Saturday of this present month, (the 25, day) our State lecturer, J. W. Beck, has appointed that day that he will address the - citizens of Locust Grove and; surrounding country, and we, the Alliauce, aud everybody else will mingle aud co-minglc, and get up as good a basket dinner as the citizens of Locust Grove can afford. Every body invited, a special to yourself and corps. Well filled baskets, boxes aud trunks will he appreciated. Everybody come, everybody help. Ladies will take the first rank and front seats. A committee of arrangements will he ap pointed ; a committee of welcome, a committee of escort of speaker, etc. Brother Beck also proposes to preach at ludifm Greek church on the 4th the day following the adores*. Remember the days, the 4th Saturday and Sabbath following, of this month. I have nothing more for the present. Oct. 20. Robert Sandifkh. The King of medicines—Hood’s Sarsaparilla.

Whereas the piesent tendency of legislation by the government is manr, festly in the interest of coporations, syndicates, monopolies aud other com binations fostered and protected by the general govermeut and manipulated and controlled by the rich, tbe said leg islatiou King class legislation and in disparagement and neglect of the la boring classes, i.n l having an inevitable tendency to destroy the prosperity, peace and serenity of the people gener ality, and to endanger the stability and permanency of the form of govern merit bequeathed to us by our fathers; and Whereas the present objectionable system of government can be attacked and destroyed only through onr reffte sentatives in the congress of the Uni ted States assembled, and through them alone can there be a system of legislation inaugurated that will give equal, fair and just protection and en couragement to all classes—operating for the benefit of the whole people. It therefore becomes the duty of every patriotic citizeu of this goverment to use his ifluence and to concentrate his effoits iu the ditection of legislation fair, equitable and for the whole peo ple; aud Whereas, it shall be t(ie duty of the general assembly of this state, which meets in Atlanta on the first Wednes day in November, to elect a United States senator to succeed the lfou- Joseph E.

One feature of the recent divorce in South Dakota of a well-known actress from her husband seems to have es caped the attention of the divorce re formers. It is the rapidity with which the matrimonial tie cau be sundered in this new accession to our sisterhood of grates. According to the reports it was a tittle less than four mouths from the time the husband went to South Dekota to reside before the decree was signed, sealed and delivered and the afflicted one authorized to contract new ties * Such rapidity is by no means unpre cedented. It has been equaled, if not excelled, over the ludiaca course aud it is quite likely that the Illinois di vorce tracks can show’a record for fas ter time. In both these states, howev er, the result was achieved by an eva siont or deliberate violrtiou ef the law which requires a residence of a year prior to the tiling of a bill for divorce. This is not a very serious requirement for persons of easy conscience aud it is surprising how anxiety to get rid of an undesirable wife or husband does ease the conscience. Technically, the re quirement of thf law is not that the applicant shall have resided in the state for a year, but that he or she shall “make oath” to having done so. It is only necessary in these slates, theae foro, for she applicant to commit the trilling offense of perjury in order to get a divorce as spee lily as the wheels of justice cau be made to revolve. In South Dakota the perjury does not seem to be necessary. Nobody at least has tal en the pains to conceal the fact that the particular divorce refered to Wiig begun and completed within four of the complainant’s appearance in the state. On the whole it is pro bably better thus. If divorces are eo be grained at the drop of a “bat” it is belter that they should have the sanc tion of the law tha* that perjury should be a requisite. South Dakota has done wisely, therefore, in a moral as pect: aud we are by no means sure that it has not been thiifty as well There must be those among the matri monially discontinued who are pining (or speedy divorce who would prefer, all others things bein equal, to get it without perjury. To such South Da kota stretches out a friendly hand; and if the state is anxious to fill up wi h that class, it has undoubtedly an excel lent chance to have-’its wishes fulfilled. Away with the bitters, nauseating, nasty, sweef-tasting chill tonic. Use Cheamatn’s 'Tasteless Chill Tonic, as pleasant to his taste as rock candy syrup. The children cry for it, the mother won’t Uye without it, and the servants slip iWroro the side board. It aids digestion, contains no Quinine, Arsenic or Stljffhnine, tones up the system,' and is warranted. No cure no pay. The State Fair. The State Fair, which opens in Ma con to-day. will attract more general attention and probably prove of more value to the people of Georgia than any of its predecessors. An unusuajly large number of exhib its have been put iu place, and their general quality is excellent.’ 'They represent a great variety of Georgia products, and speak well for the indus try, ingenuity aud prosperity of the people of this state. The county displays are excellent, each making a complete and interesting miniature in itself. The largest and best collection of Georgia raised slock ever bought together will be on exhi bition. 'The progress of Georgia in the important business of improving farm stock has been as rapid, perhaps, as was ever made by any state. Only a few years ago it would have been im possible to collect in this state as good a show of slock as will be made at the present fair. Specimens of products exhibited in almost endless variety prove the fertility and adaptableness of Georgia soil.. Every year witnesses the improvement in the cultivation and consequently in the yield and quality of our crops. The best result of re cent experiment of this character will be shown at the fair. There is a large and interesting display of machinery, agricultural implements and novel pa tents, desigued to facilitate the work of faim and the household. 'The women of Georgia will be finely represented. They have contributed a rich and beau tiful variety of their artistic handiwork and a collcctiin of domestic exhibits which show ’.l»at they are iudustrious an’d progressive'n a practical as well as an aesthetic direction. . An interesting programme is arran ged for each of the eight days. 'The formal opening of "the fair this mom ing will occur under most favorable auspices. The address of the day will lie delivered by Hon. F. G. dußiguon, ex-presideut of the Georgia Senate, and one of the most entertaining speak ers in the State. A large number of members-elect of the legislature will attend the opening in a body, and speeches may he expected from sever al of them. The fair will be started off iu one shape this morning and there is much to make it interesting to the end ot its term. Gov. Brown’s speech to the farmers of Georgia will be deliv ered to-morrow. Friday the grand trader’s display will occur, aud Gov. Gordon will speak to the assembled multitude. There are special features for every other day. The Chautau qua, which will be conducted during the course of the fair, is a novel feat ure, but oue which is sure to attract much attention. An army of speak ers has been secured who are capable of furnishing rareeutertainment. 'There will lie music and a variety of interest-, ing and practical discussion? touching the great question of popular education. The minor feature of the fair are too numerous to mention. The races will display the speed and pluck of the best Georgia raised horses and there will ba many other iucideu’al enter tainments, which will add to the gen eral imere't iu this popular event. The attendance or the f;tir will be large, and will represent all parts of the State. Macon has already a great numbei of visitors. Many others will come in to-day, aud so on during the progress of the fair. Macon extends a heatty welcome t<» all. and Iter people will do what they can to make the stay of their guests pleanant aud profitable. Macon l’ele grapb. It is the opiuiou os those who have been connected with the management of fairs iu Georgia for years that this will be the most complete aud most cre ditable of them all. Malaria Literally means bad air. Poisonous gi rms arising from low, marsHy land ot from decaying vegetable matter, are breathed into the lungs, taken up by the blood, and unless the vital fluid it purified by the use of a good mediciue iike Hood's Sarsaparilla, the unfortu nate victim is soon overpowered. Ev en in the more advauced cases, where the terrible lever prevails, this success ful medicine has effected remarkable cures. Those who are exposed so malarial or other poisons should keep the blood pure by taking Hood's Sar saparilla. 1 m. A Shot Gun Toll Gate. A bold highwayman appears to have established a shotgun toll irate in the Pipestone Pass, in Montana, about twelve miles south of Butte City, aud is demanding his toll with a regularity rthich smacks of the good old days. About a month si' ce, a slender, soft- ! voiced young man, wearing a | iece of overalls for a mask, commenced asking for contributions from people pass ng this ftoint, and all were made tributary, not even the wood haulers being ex empt, aud he made up iu numbers what was lacking in individual amounts, j This was kept up for a few day?, then j the Pijiest'-ne was deserted arid the: Champ on stag# was brought under the (tersuasive influence. Word comes to this city that this modern Claude Duval has returned to Pipestone, aud that five new victims have been added to the list. The amounts taken in each instance have been small, but the frequency ot the demand has made it burdensome, auf tbe people living in that section are or ganizing to endeavor to discourage his efforts in that line.-?-,Minneapolis Trib une. ♦Many people think that the word ‘•Bitters” can be used only in connec tion with an intoxicating beverage.
