Qa., Dec. 26.—'The sales of the Hawklnsville dispensary were about $1,500 on Christmas eve. the largest In its history. Henry Wallace, a negro, killed his wife, Henrietta, here yesterday ns the result of a drunken row. He fled and hus not been captured. Henrietta was an unusually efficient nurse and whs highly esteemed by the white people of the town. The body of James Graham, a high ly respected white farmer, was found stiff ami cold at the front gate of his home, nine miles eust of Cochran, Saturday morning, where he had evi dently been killed In the early part of Friday night. Graham stood well and .vns an excellent man when sober. He hud been on a Christmas drunk all the week and his family had left home fo^ safety. So he was at home alone when he was killed. He had not an enemy in the world so fur as Is known, and his mysterious killing Is liable to bring sensational developments. Walden, the young man who was shot by Mathis a few nights ago. is not doing so well, and his recovery Is somewhat doubtful. 4444 444 4+4H ♦♦ ♦♦ 4.4.4 4 4 Pianos and Organs the Very Best Such celebrated make* a* Weber, Sohmer & Co., Kranlch & Bach.

Cunningham of Alabama upon the governor of Geor gia. for If. John Cameron, u white man, who Is wanted In Montgomery, Ain., to answev the charge of obtaining money under fnlse pretenses. Cameron has been located and arrested In Clarksville. Habersham county. It seems that some time ago he hod J. T3.

Whitely Williford Will Not Hang in Mitchell County Today. ATLANTA. On.. Dec. 26.—The hang ing of Whitely Williford In Mitchell county tomorrow for the murder of Hannon West, a white inon, will not. occur. This change In the programme Is due to the fact that this morning Governor Terrell granted a respite to the doomed man until Friday, January 13th, ho as to allow the board of par dons to look into the case. The Judge and solicitor of the court that tried Williford suggested the respite. It seems that Williford escaped from the convict camps of McRee Brothers in Lowndes county, and a rewarif of $25 was offered for his arrest. Williford was located In Mitchell county, and when a posse made an at tempt to arrest him, he shot and killed Harmon West and also wounded T. Cox.
