r , ALBANY WEEKLY HERALD: SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 1892. MR. STEVENS TALKS. HE CDEKBEILLV ACCEPTS HIS DEFEAT. . Still Mninlnln- Ilia Orixiunl Posiliou- Xlr 1.ml Ilia Stipportara Will A1.I iu the Election of the Dem ocratic Nominee. A Herat,!) reporter called on Sir. Stevens after the battle Thursday nf- ternoon at his headquarters at the Inu. Mr. Stevens was reclining at case on his couch discussing the result of the convention with his warm friend and stanch supporter, Mr. J. A. Laing, of Dawson. “What have you to say iu regnrd to the result of to-day's contlict?" asked the reporter. “I am glad to talk to the Herald,” said Mr. Stevens. “The Herald has always Olrnt Me Fair Trenlmeut. and I am glad to talk to you and through your columns to the people. “I had entered this race as a Demo crat and subject to the Democratic nomination, and while I had believed all the time that the executive com mittees in the counties were the legal ly constituted authorities to call the mass meetings or primaries for the selection of delegates to the Congres sional convention, nnd still think so, the convention has ruled against me. “Under the legal call delegates were elected for me to the convention from nine counties, Thomas, Colquitt, Mil- ( ler, Worth, Early, Clay, Quitman, Bnn- dolpli and Terrell, making In all twen ty votes. The delegates from all these counties presented the proper creden tials to the convention issued by the chairman of the executive committee in ench county, but the delegates from four of these counties, Thomas, Worth, Clay and Randolph IVerr Contented for the reason that the delegates elect ed for me were not elected on the HOtli of July, as recommended by the dis trict executive committee. This I do not believe to bo authorized under party law, precedent or party usage, and upon this ground my delegates from Thomas, Worth and one-half the vote of Clay were not allowed seats in the convention. The committee claim ed that there were other good reasons for not seating these delegates, but the truth of tlie matter and the question at issue was the day upon which the delegates were elected, and that is made the test ot Democracy. “While this rule adopted has brought about my defeat, X accept it gracefully and cheerfully and Pledge Mr Mupper. to Mr. Bussell, who has been declared by the convention the regular nomi nee of the Democratic party of the Second Congressional distriut to the Fifty-third Congress. ‘.‘I feel that I am called upon to make any personal sacrifice for the success of the party and the perpetuity of its principles above any ambition which I might have. In the outset I pledged myself and my supporter to this oourse, and I feel that we are honor bound to stand to It. “This, in brief, Is an expression of my feelings and my position in regnrd to the result of the convention’s work." WHAT THEY SAY Aboul the Next CengreeMumu From the Second. From the Brunswick Times. Hun. Ben Bussell will make a brave Congressman from the Second. Front die I'ulnmlms Knuulrer-Snu. Mr. Russell, who lias just been com plimented after a memorable light in the Seoond, is a gallant ex-Confederatc soldier, nnd is well nud popularly known throughout the State as editor of tho Bainbridge Democrat, and also the Way cross Headlight. He is a strong, unflinching Deinocmt,nml will ably represent nnd sustain the princi ples and doctrines of the grand old Democratic party. We warmly con gratulate our friends of the Second district that their differences have been so satisfactorily adjusted, nnd that victory awaits their candidate. From I lie Atlnntu .lpurnal. As the Journal some time ago pre dicted they would, the Democrats of the Second distrlot linvc nominated Hon. Ben. E. Bussell, of Bainbridge, for Congress. In doing so they have honored a brave nnd faithful Demo crat, nud put their faith in n man upon whom they can rely in any emer gency. Ben Itussell has been lighting the battles of .Democracy ever since lie took off Ills tnttered Confederate uni form nnd went to work to help build up Georgia’s waste places. The Democrats of the Second are well organized nnd will be irresistible in this contest under the lend of gal lant Ben Bussell. From the Thoimtsvillo Tiinoa-Knterpnsc. The nomination of this sterling Democrat by the Democracy of the Second district is a just tribute to one of the truest Democrats In Georgia. Modestly he waited for others to hold aloft the banner of pure nnd unadul terated Democracy in the coming cam paign. Others, for reasons satisfac tory to themselves, and they were doubtless good reasons, declined to en ter the contest. Then and only until then, did Ben Bussell take hold of that spotless banner. And he has not per mitted it to trail in tile dust. Brave and chivalrous as he is, ho has made the tight on a high plane. He has in dulged in no personalities or mud- slinging, but has made the fight on pure Democratic lines. Now that he has been nominated it should be the pleasure and duty of every true Dem ocrat in the district to give him a loyal and earnest support. And they will do it. His opponent, Hon. O. B. Stev ens, has pledged him his support. This was creditable to the heart and head of the gentleman from Terrell. It stamps him as a true, brave Demo crat. DEATH IN THE DRAG. ALL HYENAS ARE NOT COWARDS. AOBD NEGRO WOMAN AT. TENDS THE BAPTIZING AT VAI.MYRA. And Dies on tho Hrtiirn Trip Homo. Flora Ann Jacobs, tlie wife of old man Solomon Jacobs, died very sud denly nnd under peculiar circumstan ces Sunday. There was a big baptizing out at Palmyra yestordny, and a great many of the colored population of the city were in attendance. Cox & Living ston’s big four-in-hand drag carried out a load, and among those who took passage in the crowded vehiclo was old aunt Flurn Ann Jacobs. After tlie exercises of tlie day were about over, the driver of the big drag gathered Ills passengers and started back to tlie city. Old Aunt Flora Ann had made no cuniplaints, and the crowd was jolly enough until they hud proceeded nearly half way home, when It was discovered that the old woman was speechless and helpless. She fell over against a passenger who sat next to her, nnd was dead almost before it was realized by her fellow-passengers that anything had gone wrong with her. At llrst it was thought that perhaps the old woman hud only swooned, nnd that she might revive; but she was dead. Heart disease is supposed to have been tlie cause of tier denth. THEY SKIPPED. Tw.

(From Friday’s TlioiiiaivilleTimes.Knterprlac.] Had it not been for the heavy rain yesterday afternoon ah enormous crowd would have been at the depot to congratulate Bright Ben Russell as he passed through On his way home. As It was there was a very respectable number that braved'tbe elements in order to see our next Congressman and to give vent to their enthusiasm. When the train pulled in almost the first man to step from the cars was Capt. B. L. Hicks, carrying in tils hand a life-size portrait of BuSsell sur rounded with a frame of moss. Capt, Whitaker offered three cheers for Rus sell, and the orowd responded nobly, Then came the moss hack delegation from Decatur bearlngCapt. Hammond on their shoulders. This was the sig nal for more yells and the boys fairly howled. Mr. Russell came next and when the orowd reaohed the platform Mr. W. M. Harrell, of Bainbridge, mounted a bar rel of LeConte pears, and, In a neat speeob, in which he paid a glowipg tribute to Capt. Hammond, thanked that gentleman, in behalf of Decatur •‘TRIP” IS BRAD. The Util. Canine Pet of the Pnliee Farce la Nn Mare. From Sutnrday’a Kvusing iikiiai.ii. The policemen of the city are In mourning to-day, and Tom James is in a state of bereavement that borders on that sort of grief that time alone can relieve. “Trip,” the little police dog, Is dead. He died on duty and with his oollar and badge on at about 8 o’clock this morning. His lifeless body was found by one of his oliumns “on the force” at tlie hour above named, and the remains were at once tenderly removed to Tom James’ headquarters at Defiance en gine house. The oause of Trip’s death Is supposed to have been a dose of poison. Un successful efforts have been made be fore to poison him, and lie has also been shota time or two. His narrow escapes had led his friends to fondly believe that he had a charmed life; but alas! lie has fallen by the wayside at last, and will be a petted nuisance on the streets of the city no more forever. “Trip” knew his friends, and would have nothing to do with any one ex cept the polioe. As these lines are being written the body of poor Trip lie in state. It will be interred in the rear of Defiance en gine house this afternoon, and Officer Barron has been appointed to prepare a suitable memorial. Deputy Sheriff Godwin lost two pris oners Monday morning. They were two Negroes, Wasli Bird and Cliarly Cliuke. Both hnd been convicted in the County Court und sentenced each to a term of twelve months in tho ohaln- gang. Wash Bird was sent upforconoealed weapons, and there were also one or two other oases standing against him. Cliarly Chuke was a Negro who came here from about Amerious, and wns run in for vagranoy. This morning Deputy Sheriff God win took the two prisoners out of Jail, hand-cuffed them and went to the depot with them to take them to At lanta to be delivered to the Chatta hoochee Brlok Company. After getting his prisoners on board the ears—the train that goes out on the Central at 8 a. m.—Mr. Godwin stepped out on the platform and asked Deputy Marshal MoLarty to go into the ear and watoh the prisoners for him while he (Mr. Godwin) went to the lunoh room for a oup of coffee. Olfioer MoLarty was engaged at the time, and told his brother, Mr. Buster MoLarty, to go to the oar. As Mr. MoLarty entered the oar the conduotor orled, “They are gone!” It seems that as soon as the Deputy Sheriff stepped but at one end of the car his prisoners arose and went out the other. They needed bqt half a minute’s time to get out of sight in the darkness of the night, and although Immediate and diligent search was made and pursuit attempted, no one got a glimpse of them. One of them wns barefooted, and the other wore shoes, and tracks' supposed to have been theirs were followed to the street car junotlon at the Intersection of Washington nnd Tift streets, but there all further trace of them was lost. • The two men were hand-cuffed to gether, with a single pair of cuffs— each having a free hand. It was reported that one of them was seen on the other side of the river this morning, but up to the present writing neither of them has been arrested. But here’s two to one that Godwin gets them yet. THB OI.D YETS Arranging (nr Their Annul Beaalea aad Barbecue. county, for the splendid service he had alii ' rendered the gallant Ben. Capt. Hammond responded in a few brief and appropriate remarks. Judge Hopkins next mounted the barrel of pears and introduced Hon. Ben E. Bussell to the crowd. When Mr. Bussell responded he was greeted with prolonged and tumultu ous applause. He spoke for a few minutes and then the crowd made for Stuart’s hotel for supper, after which the Bainbridge and Cairo people took the 8 o’clock train for.home. John Ginn, the unfortunate young man who has been circulating around Albany and getting into one trouble after another for several weeks past, and who was committed to jail on Tuesday, was taken to Worth county, where he belongs, to-day, and will probably be sent to the State Lunatic Asylum.

EC'HUEN FROM THE CON VENTIO Illustrative Encounter* with Them In Soiuul Hands Hyenas are noted as great cowards, blit I liavo come across a few exceptions. When about sixty miles from Berbora, on my roturn journey, I camped closo to Somali zaroba. Soon the head men came ill and asked me to shoot a pack of six hyenas, as they had killed a great many sheep and goats. That morning they killed two sheep, and tho same night jumped into tho znreba and car- rled off a sheep nnd badly bit a young cow. Next morning 1 suw two Somali men running after a hyena with sponrs, but he only kept about 100 yards In front, and ns soon as they stopped he did the same and had a look at them, and oil their returning he quietly walked on. I was busy with a koodoo head at tho time, so did not go after him, but evi dently ho wanted to seo what I was do ing and so came toward me. When about 100 yards off I put a bullet through his shoulders. So much for No. 1. Ho knew how fur a Somali could throw a spoar. hut not How far a ritto would carry. Next day at noon we heard a great shouting about a mile off. After awhile * made out that a lion had killed one of my cuuiels. I took tho 4.50 express and started off. On arriving oil tho scene 1 found it was not a lion, buta hyena, nud that tho camel was not dead, hut badly bitten on tho liiml parts. A woman said the liyenn wus behind some low buBlies about 150 yards off, Tlie buslios, three in number, were only 8>£ feet high anil on an opon plain. As the Somali inon hud been making a great noise I said nothing would stop there. However, 1 went to have a look, ami wliou about seventy yards off the bush up came a head and took a good look at me, and then went down slowly, like a lion crouching. I went twenty yards closer, when up camo the lioud to liavo another look. I took a steady aim, and next moment an express bullet between the eyes of u hyena finished him. He was a very large and fat beast, with a good coat of liuir, and liad a good portion of a sheep in his inside. Now I could imagine one going for a a camel if starved, blit not when fat, and at midday, with a man and woman accompanying tho camels—a thick hush within 200 yards on the left, If he had wanted to got away. Iustebd of doing io he kept to tho open country, with three bushes hardly large enough to conceal him, and then held his ground until shot dead. I think it showed great pluck. End of No. 3. In the night the men heard some of the others howling, so at daylight I went over to where I shot No. 3, and there, rare enough, were three more hyenas. Just then one of the three pioked up the dead one by the back and carried it in his mouth, with his head thrown up to keep It off the ground, only the feet trolling. He took it about sixty yards and put it under a bush. I lay still for • few minutes, and then tho vultures came down, but the three hyenas drove them off. I then sat up and one of them uw me. As they were only 123 yards off, however, I had a good shot, and a hollow bnllet behind the shoulder fin ished No. 8. Tho other two made off, so I left them. In the afternoon one of my Bomall men said there was a hyena keeping off the vnltnres. I went ont with the glass and saw he had taken the last dead one about 300 yarda up a stony hill with some large rooks on the top. He was |tut going hack to the rocks after hav- ng made a sortie upon the vnltnres. I then went up toward the rooks, when ont he oame and took a good look, stand ing facing me. It was a long shot, over 300 yards; but by good luck I put a bnllet in the center of lib throat, killing him Instant ly. This made the fourth. Next morning I went to taken look and there was ona vrith the dead one shot the day before.— London Field. HINTM ABOUT VVISAT THE I.A- It I EM WEAR.
