A BABY WITH TWO HEADS.
THEY ARE JOINED TOGETHER AT
THE BACK. :
A Freak of Nature That Has “Aroused
Much Interest Among the Med
ical Fraternity, Alive
and Doing Well.,
A two-headed child is causing a great
dea! of Interest in the vicinity of the
Manchester milis, says the Macon Tele
graph.
The child was born on Sunday and
since then the peoplein the neighbor
hood have talked of nothinz but the
strange freak of nature. The little babe,
who is s 0 unusually well biessed with
heads, is a male. Its father and mother
are Mr. and Mrs. John Bryan, yery in
telligent and respectable factory people.
The child, which was seen by a Tele
graph reporter, is'a well developed child,
and is of normal size and shape but for
the head, which is two heads. The
two heads are exactly the same size and
about the same shape.
Only one of the heads is joined di
rectly to the body of the child. The
other head is joined to the back of the
normal head, or the one attiched to the
body of the child. The heads are joined
together at the center of the back of
each head and the two fases are looking
in opposite directions. The head which
is joined to the body ‘is well formed as
to features and its eyes, nose, mouth,
ears, etc., are as well develuoped ‘as on
auy child of the same age. The other
head, ho»i’ever, has no developed feat
ures at all. The back of the head is
covered with hair and looks like the ¢ th
heaq, but there are no eyes, and the only
appearance of eyes, nose and mouth are
undeveloped marks which look a little
whiter than the surrounding flesh. This
}hoad is, as stated, exactly the same size
ani shape as the other head.
| Of the several physicians who saw- the
child none of them hai seen a parallel
case in their whole experience, A nuwm
%or of photographs will be taken of the
child today foi.the wfedi®alj urnals, It
is understood that the doctors are con
sidering the advisability of having an
ooeration performed on the child and
remove the superfluous growth, but this
is regarded by some as a wild idea, as
they say it would result in the certain
death of the child. In the meant.me
the babe and its mether are getting
along well enough. The baby does not
seem to be troubled by the plurality of
craniums, but acts just as all young
babies do. If the baby lives it will
doubtless be named William J. Bryan,
after his namesake, the distinguished
aspirant for presidential honors.
- CHARLIE MARSHALL’S JOKE.
These Boys Won'’t Drink Any More of His
Ice Water:
Charlie Marshall, down at Shellman,is
partial to ice water and objects to bad
boys, or any other kind of boys, wasting
it. The Shellman correspondent of the
Cuthbert Leader tells as follows how he
got even with some of the aforemention
ed boys the otber day and insured future
safety of his coolirg draughts:
“Last Saturday evening a crowd of
little boys were playing “round the de
put, and, hke all little boys, were
on mischief bent. They were wasting
the agent’s ice water, and while one lit
tle fellow was taking a cool drink Mr,
Marshall rushed in, wanting to know
what they were drinking his rat poison
for. The little fellow, thinking he was
poisoned, ran into Dr, Cranford’s office
at once crying: ‘l’'m }oisoned; .Mr.
Marshall said I drank rat poison.” The
doctor at once gave him an antidote, and
while the medicine was making <he boy
lose his dinner the doctor called to see
agent Marshall, and learned the boys
were only wasting his drinking water.
Boys, kcep out of mischief.”

ARE SHOVING THE QUEER. |
Many Counterfeit Silver Dollars Are in
Circulation.
Dawson merchants should be on the
lookout for counterfeit silver ¢oin, as it
1s believed that a quantity of the *‘queer,”
particularly silver dollars, is in circula
tion in south Georgia cities.
Many complaints haye been received
at United States Marshal Harrell’s office
of late concerning the great amount of
counterfeit money that seems to be in
circulation in the state, principally in
the lower part.
So frequent have been the complaints
at the marshal’s office in-regard to the
circulation of counterfeit money that
Marshal Harrell has instructed his depu
ty to look out for it.
REPUBLICAN FRAUD.
4 .
The Work of Hanna’s Boodle in the Nerth.
west. d
James Treelman in The N. Y. World.
The worst element in the campaign is
the part which Mark Hanna's fund is
playing. Candor compels me to give
the facts without regard to whether Mr,
Bryan’s election would be a good thing or
a bad thing, Thereis plenty of evidence,
in my opinion, to show that this is rapid
ly becoming the most corrupt and cor
rupting political struggle known to the
American people.
Bryan may be defeated, but th> influ
ence of money and of Mark Hanna's
methods upon the voters of Wisconsin,
in common with the voters of others
states, will not disappear after election
day.
Let me give one example. I speak of
a matter I know and understand. The
Reliance Machine Works, owned by the
Ecward P, Allis Company, are situated
in Milwaukee. There are employed iy
this establishmeunt something like 1,800
men. Here the Bryan sentiment is very
strong,
Itis an absolute fast that eighteen
workmen in this establishment are at
this moment on the pay roll of the re
publican state committee as secret poti
tical [agitators. Their companions are
ignorant of this fact and do not suspeet
it.
The resultis that these men have an in
fluence which they could not possibly
wield were the tyuth known, "
The republican committee has also, I
am informed, upon its pay rolls a large
number of men in an ther establishment,
which employs about two thousand work
ingmen. In several of the factories here
gold standard arguments are pinned each
week to the envelopes containing wages.
The republican committee has also sent
men in the mining districts of Wisconson
to offer $5 1n Mexican silver for $2 75 in
Awerican morcey.
It is impossible to make an honest
statement, of the political situation in’
Wisconsin today without revealing these
facte, but McKinley will carry the state
without a doubt,
COULDN’T SAY “NO.”
Why Chauncey Depew Gave 8150 to “the
Frettiest Girl In Town.”
“You must reccive a great many
queer lettérs,”’ said a youug lady who
sat next Mr. Chauncey Depew at a din
ner party a few weeks ago.
“Yes,”” said Mr., Depew, “Ido. I
just answered one of the most peculiar
I ever received this afternoon. A young
lady who lives at a little townup in
‘the Adirondack mountains that I had
never heard of before wrote and asked
me ta send her money for a wedding
trousseau.’’
- “For a wedding trousseaun,’’ ex
claimed the young lady.
~ ““Yes; she said I would not miss $l5BO,
and it would make her very happy to
have that sum, as it wpuld pay for all'
‘ehe needed for her wedding outfit. Aft
‘er explaining that her parents were op
posed to her marrying the man she
loved, simply because he was not rich,
she went on to say that she was the
prettiest girl in town and that she knew
if I could sce her as she sat writing I
would let her have the money for her
trousseau. *’
“Ani did you send it to her?”’ asked
‘the young lady. e
~ “Yel” said Mr. Depew. ‘‘And why
‘do youthini I Qid it?”
- “I ahsure I don’t know,’’ said the
young tdy. ““Perhaps because the re
quest whs such an unusual one.”””
~ “*No,\’ said Mr. Depew; ‘‘it was be
cause tle young woman stated with
such frailuess and evident eonvietion
that shefvas the prettiest girl in town.””

WATSON'S RAID ON THE WEST.
SENATOR JONES ANXIOUSTO HAVE
HIM RECALLED.
12% W ®
Report That the Georgian Will Aban
don His Western Trip Until After
the Election in This State,
A press dispatch from Washington
says: Senator Jones, chairman of the
democratic national committee, was a
busy man today, and when he goes back
to Chicago to-morrow he hopes to carry
with him the positive assurance that Tom
Watson will be ealled off of the western
circuit by the populistic mauaggrs. Wat
Bson's performances in the western states
has alarmed the democratic managers,
who are dickering with the populists for
a fusion in Jowa, Kansae, Nebraska,
Minnesota, and C Jorado, and ata con
ference between Senators Jones and But
ler this subject was considered with great
earnesiness, As a result of the confer
ence between the democratic and the
populistic leaders the statement was giv
en out that Mr. Watson will yoluntarily
abandon his western trip ‘and return to
Georgia until after the October eleetion
in his cwn state, Then he is to have free
rope to go wherever he chooses.
Theve were other conferences with 'Sen
alorJones todiy of equal importance.
Senators Dubois and Teller arrived here
unexpectedly this morning, and by upre
vious arrangeineht, met Senators Jones
and Butler. The failure of the demo
crate and populists of Idaho to keep the
original compact, in behalf of the return
of Senator Dubois to the senate, was the
subject of the conferance. Senators Tel-‘
erand Dubois, who are usually commu
nicatiye on political subjects, were mys
teriously s'lent, but some of their friends
say that the leaders wi'l sce to it that
Senator Dubois receives just considera
tion in any combination that may be
finally agreed upon in Idahn. Senator
Jones and the members of the democra
tic committee, are anxious for Senators
Teller and Dubois, especially Seuator|
Teller, to go upon the stump for Bryan :
in Néw York and other eastern states.
He is willing to do some campaigning in
the east, provided his personal friend and
p litical lieutenant, Senator Dubois, is
taken care of, Sehator Dubois has stood
by Senator Teller in all of his recent con
tests for free silver, and Senator Seller is
not the man to desert a tried and trusted ‘
friend in the hour of need.

The New York Tribune says that Mr,
Bryan’s proposal to come east and de
vote some time ‘‘to a tremendous effort’’
in that section is “‘eminently satisfastory
to republicans.” The ’xsribune and Mr.
Hanna are mighty anxious to get bim
out of the west, I'hey are afraid to have
him remain there, Hence the Tribune's
statement that bis proposal ‘‘to come
east is eminently satisfactory.” If Mr.
Bryan is wise he will not waste much
tme in'the east. The east is likely to
stand by the gold standard,
Secretary Carlisle is t» take the stump

Other members of the administration, it

\ Clergyman's Novel Claim.
The Rev. Mautgomery Huat Bbroop,
rector of &t Idutthew’s Episcopal

l GRIGGS IN QUITMAN,
An Overwhelming Majority for the Terrell
Statesman Assured.
The Georgetown correspondent of the
Cuthbert Leader says: Hom. J. M.
Griges, the democratic nominee for con
gress, and Judge W. D. Kiddoo made
two splendid speeches in the court
house at noon Monday., They were
greeted with a large and apureciative
audience. In fact, the seating capacitv
of the large building was inadequato
and a good many had to standin the
doorwaysand aisles and still others stood
on the outside of the building. The
hearers were largely democratic, al
though the other parties were well rep
resented, and heartily applauded the el
oquent speakers. While we believe the
speeches gained many votes ,fo# udge
Griggs, yet itisn't necessary ®hat he
should - gain any new votes, as old Quit
man will give him an overwhelming ma
jority on election day. His opponents,
Messrs. Sibley and Peterson, will not be
*in it” at all on the final day.
NEW YORK HERALD ON COTTON, *
Interesting Comment on the Crop and In
: dustries,
From The New York Herald.
The yield of cotton for the year ended
September 1 was twenty-eight per cent
smaller than that ot the preceding
‘‘oumper’ season.
‘ Completed statistics co npiled by the
Finaucial Chroaicie bring out this fact
1 and show that the crop fell about three
‘hundred and rsixty-five thousand balas
below that of the year 1893-4.
} About twelve months agoa profitable
‘season in the cotton gonds industry was
anticipated, but the Venezuela scare gave
a shock to trade.. Thenfthe free silver
clamor caused depression and decreased
consumption until the mills at Fall River
and other points agreed to shut down or
otherwise restrict production. c
With the outturn of print cloths re
duced nearly one-half the demand does
not seem equal to even this reduced sup
ply. If the people emphatically sup
press the fifty-three cent dollar craze,
however an improvement in business
is inevitable. Exports of cotton goods
for the year were the largest on record.
Less was sent to Great Britian, but the
exports to China more than doubled,
While our exports of cotton manufact
ures during the year aggregated nearly
seventeen million dollars, India’'s ship
ments ¢xceeded forty millions,
As to the cotton crop now being har
vested, tLe area is larger than last year's
and the plant had a good star’. During
the last six weeks. however, complaints
ot damage from heat and drought have
been current, and the government
bureal’s monthly report issued yester
day notes the average condition as the
lowest in any September for twenty-sev
en years.
MCKINLEYITES FRIGHTENED.
’
The Entire Labor Vote Going for the Dem-~
ocratic Nominee.
A Washington press dispatch says:
‘‘A special telegram in the New York
World from Chicago has created sume
alarm in republican circles bere.. The
telegram last night was, in part, verified.
It tells of a fright that has seized Han
na'’s lieutenants since tie Knights of La
bor, the American Federation of Labor
and the American Railway Union and
the coal miners of the west declared for
Bryan. A republican national leader
authorized today the statement that he
bad discovered a coamspiracy to deliver
the solid vote of organized labor to Bry
an on an assurance of Mr. Bryan that if
elected ‘“‘governmeunt by injunction” and
“federal interference” shall be stopped.
THEY ARE AGAINST THEM.
“I think that the time has come to
state that the labor organizations are
against us to a man,” said a member of
the republican national commitiee to
day, “We haye tried to teach them,
but it ie impossible, Labor day in this
ciiy gave a fair idea of the situation.
