Dcatla From a Pistol. Brunswick, Ga., July 12.—John G. Camp bell. proprietor of the Continental Saloon, and one of Brunswick's best known young citizens, was found dead early this morn ing. shot through the head. The body %vas discovered by Jack Shep pard, the proprietor's iKirtner. When Sheppmd came down to the bar, he found a pistol lying in front of the counter and the door open, while too store was empty. ■ Sheppard began investigating the mat ter and found Campbell lying behind the counter in a pool of blood. A physician was hurriedly summoned and found Campbell beyond hope of recovery. 11c d:ed later. Campbell was related to the Reppards of Savannah, ex-Mayor Spear of Bruns wick. and other prominent families in the state. He bote an excellent reputa coin for honesty and sobriety, and hud no cause for killing himself, as far as known, which has raised the theory of accidental death. He was ,i great sufferer from ex cessive cigarette smoking, but having passed through a violent and critical 111- nes*:. clue to the habit, it was thought he had recovered his mind and health al most completely. It Is stated to-night that relatives of Campbell will contest the coroner’s jury’s verdict of suicide and d-monsirat** that his death was due to an accident. The de ceased carried an accident insurance pol i y in the Fidelity and Casualty Comp my for $3,000, and this policy will enter faige ly into the linal decis on as to whether Campbell's deith was accidental or due to his own hand. llriiDKwlck Happening*. .William Andersen, a negro burglar, at lemp-ed to commit suicide in the county jail to-day by cutting his throat with a raror. He was removed to the city hos pital. and the physicians expect to puli him through. C. W. Deming will attend the meeting of fair people and r*icing men to be held nt Waycross to-morrow, and place the Southeastern Fair Association of Bruns wick in lino to join the racing circuit now proposed. If the circuit is organized, Brunswick desires to get in it and thinka a proposition can be put through that will insure rare sport in about ten Georgia and Florida cities. It is understood here that ten associa tions are anxious to get in the circuit, and this will mean a total purse list of about $12,000 for the cracks of the turf to race for this fall and winter. Brunswick defeated Quincy, Fla., in the ball game this nfternoon by a score of 18 to 7. A movement here to organize a stock company to back Brunswick in a Southern baseball circuit is now receiving substantial encouragement. YOI NG I NIV EHSALISTS.

It is not probable that Republicans of the Third District will nominate a candi date to oppose Hon. E. B. Lewis when their convention assembles Aug. 19. Sev eral days ago it was practically agreed that the party would put up a .straw man for the Democrats to ri<klle. but realizing the utter futility of such an ef fort, the party leaders are now inclined to renege in this proposition.

SaTS OF SI WAN EE "I have known the beneficial effects of Suwanee water for rheumatism end gout for many years. I mention these rwo diseases because I have had occasion to observe the action of the water on them. The action of the water drank in large quantities is peculor. After six or eight days’ drinking of the vvater freely the disease seems to be very much aggrava ted and pains are intense; at the same time the secretion from the kidneys is enormously increased. This lasts for four or five days, and then with the same irealment of drinking of the water con tinued improvement starts in. The class of diseases seem to be most benefited In which this condition of increased pains is most severe. The cause of this Is to me evident. The constant drinking of the water in large quantities renders soluble the irritating material which is the cause of these troubles; in this condition the soluble material is rapidly carried off by the kidneys and the system is freed from this poisonous matter. The improvement in many of these case is permanent; in others, relief continues until the system again becomes charged with morbid ma terial. I hope the continued use of the water at home as a beverage will be sufficient to prevent this* recurrence of disease."
