This Mr. Clark did and was positive that the dead man was Chas. Bassett. short time previous to being knocked down and ground to pieces by the engine, the unfortunate man was at Lakewood, apparently In the best of health and Spirits, and talked with sev- ral persons on the street car while re turning to Atlanta. One of these m 1 C. L. Klnard of Sylvester, who gave the dead man one of his business ards. The name of the unfortunate man was given In return, and he vol unteered the Information that he was representing a cotton machinery house of Massachusetts. The name was not remembered by Mr. Klnard. When the city was retched Klnard parted from the newly-found acquaint ance and went to his hotel, where he remained until the next morning. Baa aett went <Jown Decatur street. That was the last seen of him alive by any one who knew him. What happened between the time he left Klnard and when he waa aeon staggering along the railroad track, a moment before being struck by the en gine, enn be surmised. He may have gone Into a dive In the vicinity of De catur street, displaying money, waa drugged, robbed and turned into tho street In a dated condition. He may have even been led to the railroad and started on down the track. When seen by the engineer and rail road men nearby, he waa walking be tween the rails. He waa warned off nnd stepped to one aide for u moment. Just beforo the engine reached him. he stepped back onto the track* waa knocked down, run over and killed. The strange part of the entire Affair la that when Coroner Stamps reached the body nothing was found In 1 tho pockets of the clothing except a card bearing the business address of C..V Klnard, the man with whom he had been n short time previous, and written in lead pencil on the opposlto sldo'.thc name of C. C. Cannllle. Not n letter, not n cent of money, no Identification card or n portion of marked clothing by which he could be Identified. That Bassett had been in Atlanta for some time or had visited here last win ter Is shown by the fact that the cloth ing worn at the time he was killed was purchased from an Atlanta firm, al though employes of the store In ques tion. who viewed the body for the pur pose of Identifying It If possible, de c!ar#d that they did not remember hav ing seen the man before.

All these things bring a peculiar strain to mind and body which no other vocation does. Thc«* men are peculiarly subject to diseases of the kidneys and stomach. Nature cannot stand everything. i Though the- spirit Vk- willing, the body Is sometimes weak. These men do not even have time to doctor 1 like other men.

Drouth 11ns Injured all Crop*—Peach Shipments—Moonshine Liquor. SLLAVILLE. Oa.. July 17.—The out look with the formers in Schley Is very gloomy. With a drought of over five weeks and the thermometer ranging from one hundred and above, Is caus ing all vegetation to suffer. There can not be more than seventy-five per cent of corn made, If rain could be had now. The cotton crop Is the poorest since 1*75. The weed Is sthall and badly parched. With season* now there could not be made half a crop. Several fkmlllcs of our town have moved out to Knowlton’s Springs In Ike last two weeks to refresh them selves with, the mineral water of that popular resort. t ■ The shipping of peaches Is nearly over from this point. Not more than a fourth of a crop .was marketed with ■factory files. The scale has ught widespread destruction to nearly all the orchards In the county,' |md will now be destroyed. Thousand* bf dollars have been invested in peach culture In this county and now the iK'alc has blasted our fondent hopes. Schley was one among the firot coun ties in Georgia, to adopt prohibition, yet there Is perhaps as much moon shine whiskey made and drank, ac cording to population, as any county In 8otithwe*t Georgia.

A THENS, July 27.—Another success | fered wltl^ in the caao of a change of for Rusrisn diplomacy In the Bal kans. where her successes are be- | coming so numerous that one almost loses count of them, has been obtained in' tho election of ex-Patrlarch Joachim III. to the Pstrlarchate at Constantinople. The pro-Russian learnings, of the Patriarch have long been a matter of common gos sip. Outside of this fact the etectlon is probably destined to lead to a religious war which may hpvf the effect of opening up the entire Eastern Question. Joachim HI. Is an out end out Greek-and the Pa triarchate la headquartera for the Pan- lletlenlc propaganda, being a veritable hotbed of Intrigue for the furtherance of the national cause. Of course, this Is most offensive to the Bulgarian*. Servians nnd other peoples of the peninsula. The establishment of Greek prestige through the 'Balkans, which the Pan-Hellenes seek, being as antagonistic to their Ideas of nat.onal Independence as would be a predomination of Turkish power. The Bulgarians have already created an exar chate, or Independent Bulgarian church, while the Servians and Kutx-Wallach* are agitating for bishops of their own na tionality to replace the prelates arbitra rily installed by the Patriarchate. Nor ts this aggressiveness on the part of the Greek or Gregorian church, wntch ts Identical with the Russian, confined to Europe alone. In AsD Minor it ta 10 ax- grcsslv.e (hat there is danger of the Prot estant American churches ultimately either being driven out or compelled to amalgamate with It.
