THE WAYCROSS HERALD, SATURDAY, MAY 13, 1893. IIERALP PUBLISHING COMPANY. KnmBUM'} PoMUher. bed every Saturday at the Herald Plant Avenue, WaycroM, Ga. Subscription fl.00 per annum. THE HERALD the Mana; ni cation* for publicatior ter. Purely personal j their authority, duly .SATURDAY, MAY 13. 1893. The president seems to be giving Ross Ruck’s head lime for the horns to grow. Mr. Cleveland having enjoyed a brief rest is ready to taekle anything that comes up. The Cuban revolution is reported to be suppressed. This thing hap pens semi-occasionally. An exchange says Kansas raises lots of grain and occasionally a right smart chance of “cain.” The press of Georgia is almost a unit in its condemnation of Sam Small in regard to the Griflin sensa tion. The exposition is in full blast and it is hard to imagine the amount of devilment being carried on in the windy city. Durant and Howard, the Atlanta bicyclists, are wheeling with all their might through the middle states headed for Chicago. It is true that mob rule means dis order and should be discouraged. Rape, arson and murder should also be discouraged but a “nigh cut” in some cases is the only remedy. Fears are expressed in some quar ters that many of our millionaires will take up their residences in Eu rope. Let them go, the aristocratic atmosphere of that country suits them. The Atlanta bicylists are pushing on towards Chicago. Savannah is putting her best foot foremost this week. Economy does not mean stinginess but the art of making the most of everything. It is rumored that a fillibustering expedition will soon sail from Key West to Cuba. The democracy has secured a # vic tory over Wall street and the people are in the saddle once again. The final triumph of home rule for Ireland is said to he near at hand. Gladstone has done the work. It is to be hoped that the remnant of Georgia colonels still at Washing ton attended church yesterday. Nineteen of the pensioners of the war of 1812 are over 100 years old. Six of those reside iu Vermont. The Florida press association is in session to-day at Tallahassee. They will go to Chicago on a special train. American silver is at a discount in Canada from 1 to 5 per cent, Forty thousand people attended the world’s fair yesterday. LIZZIE BORDEN ARRAIGNED. The weather was gloomy for Sav annah’s festivities yesterday. The Southern Baptist convention met in Nashville yesterday. The mighty Mississippi riyer is on the rampage and it beats the record. London has had no rain in two months and naturally a dry drouth prevails. A Texas cyclone recently blew a train off the track. That’s the way with Texas cycloues. The net increase in the public debt during the moath of April was 84,- 000,000. A recent tidal wave at the Faroe Island brought ashore a century-old brig, contaiuing three skeletons and 82,00 worth of gold. Two hundred aud fifty thousand dead heads were admitted ts the fair grounds during the first two days. Senator Ingalls doesn’t like the World’s fair. He say it is a very tame show by the side of a Kansas election. An Indiana man is going to paper a room with with Mr. Wannamaker’s big postage stamps. He has bought 83,000 worth for that purpose. The Turkish government continues to arrest American citizens. Our new democratic minister to that coun try will have a chance to show his spunk. A western farmer advertised his runaway wife, and calls special at tention to the meanness of her deser tion, just as the spring was coming on, after he had had the expense of wintering her. It begins to look as if the project of a double track electric railway be tween Chicago and St. Louis, with a possible speed under new processes of 100 miles an hour, were to become a reality soon. We will be lucky if the unpreced entedly big loads of immigrants now on the ocean and bound for America do not bring any germs of epidemic diseases with them. They come from all over Europe. The official investigation of the re cent escape of the two murderers from Sing Sing declares that no one was to blame—but the murderers. They couldn’t well whitewash the murderers.—Ex. The cyclones and the tornadoes have made things lively through the Mississippi valley, and now the rivers are overflowing their banks and caus ing the people to flee to the uplands. Nature is in her tantrums. Reports are said to show that there is more drinking in Norway under state control than when the liquor traffic was in the hands or private individuals. Could this have been the pointer on which the South Car olinians acted? Where the carcass is, there will be the vultures gather. The poor old Central of Georgia is the carcass. It is proposed to set up the big monolitb quarried at Prentice, Wis., as a monument to James G. Blaine. It is the biggest stone ever quarried. It is 115 feet long, ten feet square at the top, and is forty-six feet longer than Cleopatra’s needle. London lias been enriched by strange novelty in the shape of a cab moved by electricity. The three wheeled carriage driving along with out any visable motor may be stopp ed and directed apparently with little effort, and runs at the rate of a mile in three minutes. Thousands of immigrants are on their way to America. Such a rush was never known in the history of the country. The Sole Leather Trust will have a capital stock of 8130,000,000. It will control all the sole leather in the country and yet be soulless. “Cyclones and bow to meet them” is the subject of a western editorial. “How to escape them” would seem to be the live subject of the hour. The World’s fair ladies are having a little muss among themselves. You can see anything at the exposi tion and this is one of the side shows. The claims that there is a desire of the managers of the World’s fair at Chicago to place some of the mem bers of the Kansas legislature on ex bibition, lacks confirmation. The emperor has gone down before the people in Germany to the tune of 210 against 1C2. Democracy’s solid columns are growing daily in Europe. Another Australian bank has sus pended with several million dollars liabilities. Australia never does anything by halves especially in the matter of bank failures. In the nearly 700 acres which the Fair grounds occupy there are 400 structures. The yalue of the exhibits is considerably over 8100,000,000. This is a big show, isn’t it? There are now 23,600 miles of telegraph lines in Mexico. In the last six months 250 miles of railway have been constructed and there are now 61,000 miles all together. Plans have been made for five new railway companies. It^is hoped that the Tehuantepec railway will soon be completed. A number of wealthy Chicagoians are willing to pay the expense of having the old Liberty Bell recast. Chicago don’t like anything cracked, she prefers to do the cracking her self. The Augusta Chronicle says : “It is reported that Mr. Cleveland’s hear ing was impaired by the canonading during the review. A once large but now beautifully less aggregation of office aspirants think the deafness developed some time since.” When the people understand that the law will be administered speedily and properly, lyncliiogs will to a cer tain extent cease unless the crime be the outraging of some white woman by a negro, in such cases Judge Lynch will proceed as heretofore. The faithful are receiving their reward and as the plums fall, Georgia receives her quoto of the drop. The latest news was the appointment of Haryey Johnson to be consul of the United States at Antwerp. The story of the attempted stea of the ashes of Columbus at Chicago has brought forth a card from the Dominican Republic that the remains of the discoverer are reposing in the citv of San Domingo. The president has informed the public that he has no time to throw away on personal callers, and that in the future the latch-string on the door of the white bouse will hang on the inside. In the manufactures of Great Brit an alone the power which steam ex erts is estimated to be equal to the manual labor of 4,000,000 of men, or more thau double the number of males supposed to inhabit the globe. The wet city council at Blackshear has collapsed. In a recent decision by Judge J. L. Sweat, their election was declared illegal but the couneil was given ten days in which to appeal. Failing to take their case to the Su preme court, the previous council met last week, took posession of the archives of the city and proceeded to business just as though no time had elapsed since last January. All’s well that ends well. The first box of California cherries were shipped to the Duke of Ytragua at Chicago. Were we not a citizen of Waycross we would like to be the duke provided we could carry our own duchess along. Th« Woman Answers Not Qulltjr to Thro* Indictments for Murder. New Bedford, Mass., May 10.—Liz zie Andrew Borden, who has been an inmate of the Taunton jail ever since August last under indictment for the murder, on August 4, in Fall River, of her father, Andrew Jackson Borden, and her stepmother, Abbie Durfee Bor den, has been arraigned in the superior court new in session in this city. The The authorities thought to keep the ar raignment quiet and preserve the ut most secrecj*. News of the coming of Miss Borden had. however, reached the city and caused a commotion. On her arrival at the courthouse, she was conducted to the district attorney’s room and remained there until 5:15 o’clock, the court being occupied. Miss Borden was then escorted up stairs to the court. The district attorney moved that Miss Borden be arraigned, and the clerk of the court said: “Lizzie Andrew Borden, stand- up.” And she did so, looking steadily at him while he read slowly and solemnly three indictments of two counts each. Two of them charged her with the murder of Andrew J. Borden and Abbie Durfeo Borden separately, and the other charged her with the murder of both. At the end of each indictment the clerk asked: “Lizzie Andrew Borden, what say you to this indictment, are you guilty or not guiltv?” and to each sho replied clearly, calmly i calmly and steadily, “I am not guilty.” Judge Hammond said there appeared to be no necessity for the assignment of counsel, and told Mr. Jennings he could enter the appearance of himself and Messrs. George B. Robinson and M. Q. Adams. The court was then adjourn ed, and after waiting a moment or two for the spectators to disappear. Sheriff Wright, his wife and Miss Borden left the room, and in company with Mr. Jennings, proceeded to the room of Dis trict Attorney Knowlton. where they stopped till it was time to go to tlit train. Mr. Jennings accompanied the sheriff, his wife and Miss Borden to the station, where the three took the 5:30 o’clock train for Taunton, where Miss Borden will be again imprisoned until her trial. SCANDAL IN ARIZONA. The Territorial I’rUon Under » Thorough Invefttlgntion—Ilig Steulnge. Tuscox, May 10.—Advices from Yf- ma say that the investigation of the Arizona Territorial prison at Yuma, which has been begun by the Demo cratic administration of the territory, reveals a startling state of affairs. Su perintendent of the Prison W. K. Meade and Attorney General Francis Henry are causing the prison and cells of the convicts to be searched. No fewer than 32 daggers, butcher knives, saws, files and slug shots were found, besides mor phine and other drugs. Boxes of goods which were about to be shipped out by M. Mclnernany, the superintendent un der the former administration, were seized at the railroad depot and found to contain several hundred dollars’ worth of prison property. Mclnernany was arrested and held to bail to await the action of the grand jury. Further developments are expected, as a very large amount of prison property is still missing. Several guards have returned property, claiming that the superinten dent told >ld them to take it. And now it is claimed that the lit tle gold box at Chicago does not con tain the remains of C. Columbus, and the whole affair is a humbug. That’s immaterial, the Americans love to be humbugged.—Albany Herald. The old confederate veterans have accepted the result of the war but they will never forget the dead com rades who fell fighting by their sides. This truth was recently demonstrated all over the the south in the celebra tion of memorial day. The movement in the Florida legis lature to provide Indians in the Ever glade section with homesteads, edu cation and a better Christian training is a good one. The Indians are the remnant of the once powerful Semi nole tribe, their inclinations are peace ful and friendly and they should be considered the wards of church and state. Lloyd & Adams. A Terrible Hglift In n Joint. Wooster, O., May 10.—The village of Shreve, this county, was the scene of a terrible saloon fight at a late hour Sat urday night. The trouble took place in a “hop-tea” joint, conducted by David Priest, and was participated in by a gang of railroad laborers and town tonehs. Half a dozen or more were badly beaten up. Two of the railroad ers are reported eo badly hurt that they will die. The saloon fixtures were de molished and the front and rear ends of the building torn out. A Schoolboy Shoots a Priest. Vienna, May 10.—A schoolboy named Grueber shot Father Pnryonky in 01- mntz with a revolver and then killed himsel. The priest will recover. Purv- onky had interferred in Grueber’s love affairs, and the boy was seeking revenge.
