Commonwealth Drying I'p,
T'nleds something wholly unexpected
lJe\elope. Commonwealth Colony, in Mus
cogee county, will soon be a thing of the
past. The trying of the colony, which
is an experiment in practical socialism,
ii proceeding without any particular In
cident, but steadily, and by the Novem
ber term of Ihe Muscogee Superior Court
lie affairs will probobly have been wound
up for good. Pursuant to the order of the
court, Mr. W. A. Ross, the receiver of
the colony, has been engaged pi winding
up the affairs of the enterprise as rapid
ly as can be done, and has already filed
a report of the assets, liabilities, etc., of
the colony. In the petition filed In the
Superior Court recently, when a receiver
was asked for by Leon de Brabant, one of
the members. It was stated that the lia
bilities of the colony were $3,700 or $3,800.
In the petition It was stated that the crop
of 1899 had been almost a total failure,
and that the membership had become very
much discouraged, and that from forty
five to fifty the members had dwindled
In number to three. At a recent meet
ing of the entire citizenship of the L.irts
tlan Commonwealth, It tvne decided to
have the affoirs of the colony wound up,
•s the then small force on hand was In
adequate to carry on the work begun by
the full colony.
“Pe-gleg" Williams Again,
“Pegleg" Williams has been heard
from again. He will leave Memphis short
]y for Atlanta to begin the work of get
ting more negroes for transportation to the
Delia during the fall. Despite the ob
stacles which have been thrown In his way
by the farmers of Georgia, and the sev
eral suits which are pending against him,
he predicts a large business this fall.
While in Atlanta on the Fourth of July he
distributed thousands of circulars to r.e
--j gro excursionists- who were ihere from all
j parts of the southeast. In these circulars
j he sets out the advantages to the negro
: laborer afforded by the Delta plantations.
I He expects to have good returns from
i these circulars.” It seems that ”Pegl3g”
i is not satisfied with his experiences in
■ Middle Georgia. It will be remembered
that he Induced some 2,500 negroes in Mor
gan county to leave their homes and go
to the Mississippi boiiom lands. He car
ried away about 500 from Greene. They
; were still going from Greene and Put
i nam and Morgan when he was arrested
as an emigrant agent working without
license and lodged in the Morg.au county
jail. A mob of angry and outraged farm
ers and townspeople gathered in Madison
and were about to do “Pegleg” bodily
harm, when he agreed to withdraw from
that section. Williams was found guilty
by Judge John C. Heart. He appealed to
•he Supreme Court of Georgia and that
court sustained Judge Hart. His attor
ney. Mr. James Davison, of Greensboro,
carried the case to the United States Su
preme Court. The outcome of this case
will be watched with interest, as ii great
ly affects the farmers of Georgia.
FLORIDA.
R. T. Colding and W. R. Clark of Dade
City, two of Pasco county’s best citizens,
were drowned in Pearce lake while fish
ing Monday. They were alone, and not
ing is known as to how the accident oc
curred. Their beat was found capsized.
The bodies were recovered last night.
Killed n Desperado.
Sheriff H. C. Griffin and posse killed a
negro desperado. Canny Clark, at day
break Tuesday, near the turpentine camp
of Allison & Gasque, n t far from Dade
City. By chance the posse met the negro
on the road. Clark immediately drew
his revolver and attempted to shoot the
sheriff. The posse riddled him with buck
shot. At the Inquest the verdict was jus
tifiable homicide.
Seriously Stabbed.
Charles Henderson, a young white man,
was seriously stabbed by two white men
at Roberts, Fla., Tuesday. Henderson was
taken to Pensacola for medical attention.
He was attacked by the two men at once ;
and would have been murdered, but for
interference on the part of the bystanders.
The would-be murderer**, whose names are
English and who are relatives, were also
taken to Pensacola for safe keeping.
Gored By Angry Ball.
A sad accident befell one of the men en
gaged in loading a cattle boat at Punta i
Rassa on Saturday, and before the bars |
could be put up, an angry bull turned
on one of the boat hands, a Cuban, and
gored him in a frightful manner, lac
erating his thigh and arm, and also gor
ing him through the stomach. A physi
cian was sent post haste from Myers,
and after doing all that could be done
the boa* left for Key West. No hopes
are entertained for the man’s life.
Scooping In the Violator*.
Tampa Herald: Fish Warden Ben Moody
now has twenty-four fishermen bound
over to the Criminal Court for violation
of the closed season. The charge Is fish
ing with nets other than cast nets. They
have had preliminary trials at the most
convenient point In each case, before
Jus ices In Clearwater, Port Tampa Cby

Too Many Criminal* Let Loo*e.
Dunnellon Citizen: Last week was a
not'd week for murders in this state. Out
of the large number cf murdereis four or
five were ex-convicts. We put our seal
of condemnation on pardoning criminals
and iurning them out of prison to go arid
commit more murder until the Board of
Pardons and guards are thoroughly con
vinced that the prisoner has exchanged
yokes with the devil, "is a n*w crea
ture,” otherwise let him cr her serve his
or her full sentence. Too many criminal*
who have not had justice meted out to
them are at large now.
The Executive- Committee.
Jacksonville Times-Unicn and Citizen:
The rmeting cf the Democratic State
Committee, held in this city yesterday,
was in some respects a disappointment to
those who had arvic pated ihat the cam
paign machinery would be put in motion.
Asa, r suit of two long sessions, a com
mittee of nine was appointed to arrange
the itinerary of campaign meetings
through the state, a finance committee of
live was named to have charge of ways
and means for raising campaign funds,
as well as to disburse such funds, and the
meeting then adjourned, directing the
ehaiiman to call the committee together
again on Aug. 24. wh°n other business
which was left yesterday uncomp’eted.
will be taken up. The primary rules will
go over to the next meeting.
May Bo Another Strike.
Tampa Timee: From all that the Times
can gather a serious disturbance is threat
ened in the cigar manufacturing industry.
There hove been rumors current for aome
time past that a big strike for higher
prices is impending, and these rumors
are constantly becoming more insistent
and widespread. The cigarmakors ar*
discussing the situation at frequent meet
ings, and now it appears that the man
ulacturers are becoming alarmed and
are organizing for a fight. It is announced
that the manufacturers will hold o meet
ing to-night in the board of trade rooms
to form an organization. It is stated
that every manufacturer of any conse
quence in the city will join this organi
zation, and that they will sign an agree
ment and give a bond which will insure
that they will act in unison in case of
a conflict.
A l.nrßp Game Preserve.
A large land deal has Just been closed
at Tampa. The sale was of 63,710 acres of.
prairie land In Manat' e county, w hich li a
in a solid bedy. and has forbears been
the properiy of the Plant Investment
Company. The land was bought by
Messrs. T. S., F. J.. E. C. and C. L.
Knight, all of Charlotte Harbor, and they
will enclose the land for a game pre
serve. which will be the largest in the
state. The tract, in addition to a little the
purchasers already owned ihere, com
prise* thr e s IUI townshlrs It i* so
watered and wooded as to make it an
Ideal game pr serve. The n w owners will
devote their energies toward making this
p’oee cn that will be well worth owning.
All of the gentlemen arc sportsmen, and
they do not like to s c he game disap
pear so rapidly as it has, so they have
determined to have a place where they
can do as they please and keep the pot
hunters cut.

NEWS FROM THE WATER FRONT
SCHOOXER CHAS. K. SC HI LL. Itl-ft
l)OW\ BY AN IXKXOWM.
Ci*pi. Clark of the Scholl tnable to
Discern Ihe .lame of the Stranger.
The Scholl Suffered Considerable
Dnmnfte — Tng L. Luckenback to Go
Around the Horu, From \>w York
to ’Frisco—Matter* f Interest to
Shippers and Mariners.
Capt. A. W. Clark of the schooner Chas.
K. tSchull, which arrived yesterday light
from New York, reports that he was run
down by an unknown loaded schooner ap
parently bound North, forty miles off Hog
Island light, bearing W. by S. The col
lision was about 12:30 a. m. on the night
of July 25.* After .the accident the Schull
wore around on the port tack until day
light, and seeing nothing of the other ves
sel, proceeded on her voyage South.
Describing the vessel which ran the
Schull down, Capt. Clark said she was a
loaded three-master, and was apparently
bound North. He does not know whether
the watch on the stranger saw the Schull,
notwithstanding the proper lights were
displayed on Che latter vessel.
The damage to the Schull as a result
of the collision was the carrying away of
a lifeboat end starboard davit, part of
taffrail, and patent log and its gear. Af
ter the clash Capt. Clark hauled down
jib and flying Jib, and bore to on the
starboard tack for an hour, then wore
around on port tack until morning, but
without finding the name of the vessel
that collided with the Schull.
Around the Horn to ’Frisco in fifty-five
days Is the programme mapped out for a
New York harbor tug. She is the L.
Luckenback, and, if nothing happened,
has already begun her long voyage. Capt.
McKay, her commander, arrived in New
York a few days ago from California, and
is reputed to be an expert navigator of
Southern seas.
J. D. Spreckels & Cos. of San Francisco
recently bought the L. Luckenback from
her New' York owner, Lewis Luckenback.
In future the little vessel will be used
in the water* of the Golden Gate.
Such a long trip as this one is no ordi
nary venture for a tug, although it has
been made before. The risk is enormous,
even for an “ocean goer” like the L. Luck
enback, and it has required all possible
ingenuity to get a crew for her. Fifteen
men, however, were finally signed, the
last one yesterday afternoon.
As far as could be learned from various
towboat owners, only three or four tugs
have ever made this trip. The best record
up to date is that of the G. W. Pride,
which went around eight years ago in
sixty-three days. Between 1890 and 1899
two other tugs accomplished the feat, both
of them taking a great while, and having
many mishaps. At present the United
States government tug Slocum is on her
way to the Pacific coast, and little un
easiness is felt for her. as she is one or
the largest and most seaworthy boats of
her class.
The L. Luckenback is 135 feet long, and
has a gross tonnage of 260. Her former
owner says she can reach ’FriscV> in fifty
five days.

N. Kerlin arrived yesterday from Balti

KILLED BY HER 111 SRAND.
Two Jacksonvllle Aldermen Hay Be
Onsted From Office.
Jacksonville, Fla., Aug. 2.—Justice Wil
lard was summoned to McCollum’s tur
pentine camp, seven miles southwest of
the city to-day, to hold an inquest on the
body of Arry Golden, a negress, who died
their suddenly, it is said, from blows in
flicted by her husband. In her dying mo
ment she told of how he had come into
her room, and finding her lying on the
bed, took up a heovy lightwood knot and
struck her three heavy blows on the ab
domen with it, causing her frightful pain.
She died soon afterwards. The negroes
there were greatly incensed against her
husband and caught him and tied him
tightly till an officer went out end arrest
ed him. The wife stated that if she died
her husband would be responsible.
There Is much talk over the legal pro
ceedings being taken to remove Counci’.-
men Bethel and Puckhaber. Some days
ago Judge Young applied for a writ of
quo w’arranto for the purpose of removing
them on the ground that they were ap
pointed by the Council, when the charter
provides that the bond trustees shall ap
point all officers not elected by the people.
As both these officials were appointed to
fill vacancies by the Council, it was con
tended that they had no legal right to
their present seats. Behind this was a
move, so it was stated, to have the recent
notion of the Council in giving street rail
way franchises to the Plant System de
clared illegal on account of these aldermen
holding their seats illegally, and J. M.
Barrs, city attorney, has been given credit
for being behind the move. To-day he had
a card in the Metropolis stating that while
he knew some of Judge Young’s clients,
whom he declared were among the leading
buisness men here, etc., he had no hand
personally in the matter. He thinks thaj
the suit will stand, and that Bethel and
Puckhaber will be declared r.ot to be en
titled to their seats.
Another interesting matter has ecme up
in political rircles and that is the ques
tion of J. M. Barrs, city attorney, hav ng
a right to be appointed presidential elec
tor while holding that office. The State
Executive Ccmmittee referred the matter
to a special committee to investigate.
Mr. Barrs wrote to Senator Jon s of the
National Committee, and the latter re
plied that he did not think thar Mr. Bars
was eligible. Mr. Jones statfd further
that he did not think a srate senator
should be appointed eithe-. As Mr. Hunt
Harris, senator frem Monroe county, has
been apTOirued an alternate, this effects
him also. Mr. Barrs takes issue with Sen
ator Jones and has written the Senator a
long letter, endeavoring to convince the
national leader that he (Barrs), can hod
both offices. The Democrats here are
waiting with inter st ra see if the elo
quent city attorney can change Mr. J ties’
views.

During the Cotton S4ates and In

was exceedingly anxious to get more,
but on looking at the box I found
nothing but Savannah, Ga.. no other

where to get it. This morning’s
mail brought your circular with en
closed sample I immediately re
ferred to my box, and found it was
the Infants’ Friend Powder. It is
without doubt the best powder I have
ever used. Respectfully,
MRS. WM. KING.
