HOniCIDE IN ROCKBRIDGE.
Benjamin Day, A Constable From
Rockdale County,
Shoots and Kills George Echols. Col.. While
Resisting Arrest.
At Caleb, Rockbridge district,
George Echols (col.) met his
death Sunday evening at the
hands of Benjamin Day, a con
stable of Rockdale county, while
resisting arrest.
Day had come over into Gwin
nett to arrest Echols, who was
charged with a misdemeanor in
Rockdale county, and was under
taking to make the arrest when
Echols resisted. Echols was drink
ing, and when the officer told him
to consider himself under arrest,
the negro became insolent and
said, (so witnesses to the affair
state) that “No G—d — white man
should arrest him.”
R.X. C. Weaver and D. P. Moore
had been summoned by the con
stable to assist him in making the
arrest, and were present when the
killing occurred.
Their testimony before the cor
oner seems to justify the officer in
the killing, for they both swore
that Echols resisted arrest and
picked up a rock to throw at Day,
saying that he would not be ar
rested, and that Day would either
kill him or he would kill Day if
he attempted to take him iu cus
tody. He asked Day to show his
warrant, which tiie officer refused
to do.
The officer pulled his pistol and
fired the fatal shot, just as Echols
picked up a rock and threw at him,
according to the testimony of
Moore and Weaver.
The ball entered the left breast,
and is supposed to have penetra
ted the heart, as Echols never
spoke after being shot. The shoot
ing occurred in the public road in
front of R. C. C. Weaver’s house,
at Caleb postoffice.
Coroner Wilson was notified of
the killing, and ou Monday went
down to the scene to hold an in
quest over the dead body. The
following jury was empaneled and
sworn: W. F. Brady, foreman;
C. G. Hannah, J. M. Guess, C. H.
Livesay, J. T. Campbell. R. P.
Ferguson, D. W. Clower, A. D.
Freeman, A. V. Kenuett, G. Ma
son, D. R. McDaniel and Benj.
Davis.
After hearing the evidence the
jury returned a verdict that Echols
met his death from a pistol shot,
fired by the hand of Benjamin
Day. The v* rdict neither justified
nor condemned the killiing. It
simply stated the cause of death,
and at whose hands.
Opinion is divided as to whether
Day was justified in the killing.
Echols was a hard working, in
dustrious negro, with a family, and
owned a farm near Centrevillo,
where he has lived for several
years. He had the respect of his
white neighbors, but at times got
drunk when he became overbear
ing and insolent.
Day is a blacksmith and former
ly lived at Ceutreville. Last year
he moved to Rockdals county, just
across the Gwinnett line, and at
the recent election was chosen one
of the constables of his district.
Day has been arrested, but has
not been brought into Lawreuce
ville. It is supposed that he has
either been released on bond by
the magistrate, or discharged.
Echols was charged with insult
ing a lady in Rockdale county,
and it was for this offense that
Day was attempting to arrest him
when he was killed.

Editok News-HkraLd: I ask
for a few lines to tell of my trip
to Florida. I left home on Dec.
18, and landed iu Gainesville,
Fla., Dec. 20. I then started
through the country, walking to
Judson, a distance of forty miles.
The country is thinly settled, and
I became very lonesome, but final
ly a gentleman drove up and in
vited me to ride with him, which
I gladly done. We rode to his
home, a distance of 15 miles,
where 1 spent the night. My next
stop was at Judson, where I met
two of my, old Gwinnett friends,
Luther Yanby and Dan George,
and it is needless to say I was
overjoyed at seeing them. 1 spent
the week hunting and fishing, but
I didn’t see Grover. I left for
Tampa, a distance of two hundred
miles, in a rickety wagon, driving
a shabby horse, and accompanied
by a hard-shell preacher, who was
also a doctor. At night we camped
out, but as I had heard a great
deal of bears and panthers, I did
not sleep much. However, as the
doctor was well supplied with his
favorite prescription, moonshine,
we got along fairly well. Deer,
turkeys and small game are plen
tiful, and I anticipate a nice time.

BOILS INDICATE DISEASED
BLOOD
IK NOT CCKKD THKY IKAD TO CARBUN
rLBS AND RUNNING SORBS.
Boils, or their more aggravated form
of carbuncle, surely indicates a dis
eased condition of the blood, which
should have prompt attention ou the
appearance ol the first symptoms, or
they may lead to more serious diseases.
Eat the best you can get, and freely
use Botanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.).
Mrs. W. A. Steed, of Augusta, Geor
gia, bad boils for several years past, as
well as a carbuncle over the right eye.
This spring she felt the symptoms of
boils coming on again. While sewing
she would prick the skin with her nee
dle. The little sores would fester.
She took two bottles of Botonic Blood
Balm (B. IS. B), and was entirely
cured, and she passed the spring with
out the annoying boils and possible re
turn of a carbuncle. Her blood was
relieved of poison matter by B. B. 8.,
which is a powerful blood remedy.
J. I). Watkins, Blakely, Ga ~ writes :
“Old sores covered my entire person
and itched intensely night and day.
For severla months I could not work
at all. I commenced the use of Botan
ic Blood Balm (IS. IS. B.) and begin to
grow better the first week, and am now
sound and well, free from sores and
itching, and at work again.”
Botanic Blood ISalm (IS. IS. B. ) is a
scientific vegetable compound used by
Dr. Gilman in his private practice for
blood diseases such as Old Sores, Scro
fula, Boils Blood Poison, etc. ftcured
so many people that it was put on the
market 17 years ago and is for sale by
all druggists at SI.OO per large bottle.
It lias always enjoyed a large sale be

MISSING WORD CONTEST.
The Naws-Herald Offers a New Plan to
Its S'jbßcribers Who Take the Con
stitution In Combination Offer.
OPPORTUNITY OF THE SEASON.
We take pleasure iu announcing
a missing word problem to our sub
scribers in connection with The
Weekly Constitution of Atlanta,
Ga. This is the seutence:
“I was immediately conscious
ot the effect which his pro
duced on Ids companions.’’
It is taken from a charming,
living southern author, and is of
fered to test the knowledge of our
people of their own writers. The
missing word is a plain, every-day
English word, not a compound
word, not a proper name, and is
used in its ordinary acceptation.
The prize to be given will be 10
per cent, of all the subscriptions
received from contestants by The
Constitution, Atlanta, Ga. It*will
be paid by The Atlanta Constitu
tion. That paper has paid on
missing word contests alone near
ly SIO,OOO in cash prizes. To pne
prrtv, Mr. M. L. Brittain, was
given a check for SI,OBB 50 for one
successful guess; others have re
ceived large sums ranging from
$585 to over SBOO on similar prop
ositions. This contest is to rnn
until April Ist, 1899,at which time
the results will be promptly and
properly announced.
Every subscriber who takes ad
vantage of our clubbing offer with
The Constitution may enter his
own word to fill the blank in the
sentence, ft must be given to us
at the time of the subscription so
we may forward it together with
his order for The Constitution. It
is a plain, fair plan, and we feel
sure that many will be interested
and will hunt up the word or take
u shot at it. The subscription or
ders under this combination offer
must be sent directly to this "of
fice, pnd not to The Constitution.
We will forward everything our-
