LOYAL BAKING POWDER YOKE. CO., NEW The Trial of Flanegan. The trial of Flanagan, the De Kalb county double murderer, is in progress at Decatur and it is creating more excitement than any other case ever tried in that county. The details of his horrible crime are known to the people beyond even the limits of the State, and the 'trial is being watched with interest. Col. W. C. Glenn, the defend¬ ant’s leading attorney, is mak¬ ing a strong fight for his client on the plea of iusinity and how¬ ever much the fellow deserves to be hung it is safe to predict that he has a good long lease of life yet. An effort on the part of an unknown mob to take the pris¬ oner from Sheriff 11. 0. Austin was overcome by that brave officer, and since that incident the military has been doing du¬ ty at the court house in Decatur Judge Candler has done all in his power to give ttie pris¬ oner a fair trial, but unless the verdict, to be, is favorable to the heartless wretch the grounds upon which a new trial can be demanded are many and will be ably presented to the court. It may bo a long time off, but Flauagan will one Jay dan¬ gle from the end of a rope to pay the penalty of his crime. No citizen that is posted a little bit will criticise Ordinary Helms for his acts in connec¬ tion with the building of a new jail. He is following the law in this matter and no blame can possibly attach to him. There is no good cause for a kick any¬ way. The county must build a jail sooner or later and this is the lowest priced period, for ev¬ ery commodity, that we have memory of. There will be no extra cost in building it now, <<■ mm ron s Blood <& Bone, High Grade See J. P. TILLEY. Tuff’s Pills Cure All Liver Ills.

It has been said that he denies the charges made against him. The people of Conyers are not much exercised over the construction of McKinley’s cab inet. This is an “off ” year, or should he, with all good demo¬ crats, especially as relates to national politics, and our lead ers are holding aloof. The -sensationalism of the daily newspapers seems to be on the increase. This is not so much due to the natural bent of the publications as to the prominence of the individuals involved in scandal. Rev. Sam P. Jones is billed to open his religious campaign in Atlanta on March 7. He gives warning in advance that society leaders and proraeters of that city may have cause to an¬ ticipate his coming. Flanagan is a poet murderer. We are glad to announce that he is not a native Georgian. Georgia poets are too success¬ ful to grow despondent and commit murder. The list of crazy criminals continues to grow. It will be well for a man)to suspect his best and brightest friend of in¬ sanity and cut his acquaintance lest he turn upon him and slay him. Zertouche.Maeeo’s betrayer,is said to have been killed by tbe Cubans. Justice ,’s always ou the march. The present round of court in the Stone Mountain circuit will be very interesting from a crim¬ inal standpoint. Court will he held in Jonesboro next month and the McCullough case will be heard again, This fellow is charged with killing his wife and it is said that sufficient evidence of his guilt will bo produced to convict him. Spot ting circles are wild over the coming tight at Carson, Nev., between Corbett and Fitz¬ simmons. The sympathies of the people down this way are with Fit/.. —. • . — Talk up your town every day in the week, We have got one of the best iu the State and you have just cause for praising it. Conyers is in the lead aud it is the fixed purpos of the citizens to keep her there. The State Savings Bank, of Atlanta, Is in tbe hands of a receiver.
