The crops in South Georg a are really mad- and are as line es usual. In Middle Georgia the c -tton and corn are about two weeks late, and are in fair condition. Tie poor st crop is in North Georgia, where the heavy rains during June seemed to have had the greatest effect “The cot ion acreage this year is about the same, though I don't think the amount of cotton will be as large as last year. The corn crop this year will he better than in many seasons. TANARUS has been a great season for upland corn, while the corn in the swamps has almost been ruined. “The cotton will begin to come in rap idly from now on. and I expect that the South Georgia, crop will be marketed bv Sept. 15. if a sufficient number of hands can be secured to gather it. South Geor gians are having great trouble in secur ing labor." ATLANTA’S \\ ATER WORKS. May C'anne Row Between Clti/.enß C ommittee nml < onneil. Atlanta. Aug. 10.—Atlanta’s waterworks, because of the recent break-downs, prom ises to cause a big row between a citi zens’ committee of ten, appointed at a public mass meeting, to investigate the cause of the breaks, and the City Coun cil. The Citizens’ Committee, of which H. H. Cabaniss is chairman, to-day requested the Council to appropriate SSOO to pay the cost of hjfing an expert to inspect the waterworks and make a report. Council dimply tabled the request. The commit tee is now expected to denounce Council. The Joint Committee of Council to-dav made a rc*port to rhat body. Among the recommendations made were the follow ing: “That all direct elevator connections be discontinued at once; that hereafter, in flushing sewers from hydrants the sani tary deparrment use hose with nozzle at tachments in washing out the sewer eyes; that the filters at all times be washed with water from the clear water basin.** In conclusion, the committee recom mended that the improvements and changes which the committee deem of the utmost importance for the successful op eration of *he plant be provided for by a bond issue or an emergency tax levy of one-fourth of 1 per cent, for one year for immediate construction of the work. The coer of the proposed improvements is estimated at $237,000. NO TEAM FOR SEA GIRT. Governor** Horne Gunrria llnve De cided Not to Send One. Atlanta. Aug. 10.—The Governor’s Horse Guards will not send a rifle team to Sea Girt this year to participate in the inter state shoot, (’apt. George Hope of the Horse Guards says no team will go. as the Governor has advised against sending one on account of the fraud said to have been perpetrated at the rifle range at Sea Girt last year. It will be remegpbered that quite a kick was raised by Savannahians on account of the way in which they were treated. The Horse Guards had hoped to he on band this year, but a* rho Governor doen’t think it advisable for Georgians to go. the state w ill be without represen tation at the shoot. The Horse Guards won the national medal last year for the best carbine team on the range. The troop will have a team at Savannah next month, however, and will compete with other teams of the state for the prizes offered by the Avondale Rifle Association. EXCMSIVE RIGHT TO STREETS. Judge ( nndler of the Opinion That \© One Person Has It. Atlanta. Aug. 10.—When the hearing of the Central Trust Company’s suit to pre vent the condemnation of the Atlanta Railway and Power Company’s tracks was called to-day. Judge Candler stated that he had not changed his mind since holding the Atlanta Railway could cen iiemn the Mitchell street tracks of the Atlanta Railway and Power Company, and he called on the counsel to tell him how the present case differed from the one he had previously decided. During the discussion which followed, the Judge said: “I don’t undertake to say what the law Is yet, but if anybody has got exclusive r ghts to the streets in this country, then the people are in a mighty bad fix.” Because of Hint ss of Clifford L. Ander son. leading counsel for the trust com pany, the hearing was postponed until to morrow morning. LOANED ATLANTA MONEY. Atkinson Let the City Have $200,- 000 at 2 Per Cent. Atlanta.

Brundle, a traveling salesman for the .Ridpath Encyclopoedia, committed suicide here to day about noon by taking morphine. He came here three weeks ago and has been boarding at Mrs. Greer’s, though he occupied a room at the home of Mr. Buchanan, just across the street. It is said that he ran out of money and be- , came despondent. Those who have, been associated with him during his stay here say that he was ,ui advocate of suicide and often talked about it. He bought a dozen- morphine tablets last night, and it is supposed that he took them in broken doses to-day. He was missed about his usual haunt to-day and some inquiry was made about him. E.iter iri the day he was found dead in his room. He was an Englishman and had not been in this country a very great while. His remains were taken in charge by some of his fellow-countrymen and he will be buried here to-morrow. He left no mes sage or explanation of the rash act. F/\( ITEMBNT AT TIFTON. \ Young W muii n Accosted by a lllnck Man. Tifton, Gn.. Aug. 10—Considerable ex citement was caused in Tifton late yes terday afternoon by the receipt of a tel egram from Chula, seven miies north of here, asking that Oliver and his dogs be sent at once, to run down a would-be rapist. The dogs were Immediately sent, and quite a crowd of armed men followed them. They returned at an early hour this morning, with the following partic ulars: As the 18-year-old daughter of Mr. Self, a teamster for Phillips & Hollingsworth, was returning from school yesterday af ternoon, about 4 o’clock, carrying two empty dinner buckets on her arm. she was met by a young negro man. who ask ed what she carried in the buckets. She told him they were empty, and kept walking away from him. He replied that he would see what was in them, and start ed towards her, when she increased her pace to a run. The negro drew his knife and pursued her a short distance, but as she was near home when she met him, stopped before he got to the house. The alarm was given, and a party started in pursuit, but up to noon to-day the negro had not been caught. He is said to be a mulatto, about 20 years old, and weighing about 120 pounds. There is little doubt but that only the prompt flight of the young lady and her home being so near by is all that prevent ed another terrible tragedy being added to those rhat are already blackening the history or the state.

The case was brought by Mrs. Alice Lee of Savan nah. against W. N. Lee of Statesboro, ner husband, for the possession of their two-year-old child. Fitzhugh, under ha beas corpus proceedings.

Slater accompanied Mrs. Lee up yesterday. fim her attorney, and made an eloquent appeal to the court for the pos session of the child for his client. THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.

LIKE* THE WAY THE BRYAN FORCES ARB ORGANIZED. Predict* Missouri U ill Again Be the Banner Democratic State of the Middle \\ e*t Snprime Ex|ire**ed That Neither of the Virginia Sen ator* I* on the National Demo cratic Executive Committee —Bach- elder to Itnn for Congress in M*- Niirli ii sett*. Washington, Aug. 10.—Senator Cockrell of Missouri, looked more like a back coun ty farmer than the leader of the Demo cratic minority in the United Stales Sen ate, as he trudged around the various de partments the other day looking after the Interest* of his constituents. Although the thermometer registered 98 degrees in the shade, the Missouri Sen ator's dome of thought was covered by a broad brimmed black wool hat. Rivulets of perspiration coursed down his checks and formed a conjunction at the end of his billy-goat whiskers, ond thence tric kled down upon his boiled shirt front. The Senator had discarded his veet, but wore a long flowing black alpaca coat which nearly reached his knees. His heavy, black wool trousers were so short that they revealed the fact that, although sum mer is far advanced, the Senator has not yet placed his winter boots on the re tired list. Senator Cockrell was not averse to dis cussing the political situation, notwith standing the high temperature. lie says he is greatly encouraged by the admirable mannei in which the combined Bryan forces are being organized. He said there is more enthusiasm, more sincerity of pur pose, and a greater determination to win displayed by the Democratic leaders than he has ever known before. So far as Mis souri is concerned, he predicts that his state will maintain its reputation as the banner Democratic commonwealth of the ‘Middie West. He does not anticipate much assistance from any of the Eastern states, and he is not as sanguine as Senator Jones appeared to be that New York will be found in the Democratic column in November. Not on Executive Committee. Some surprise i9 expressed in Demo cratic circles that neither of the Virginia senators are members of the Democratic Executive Committee. It was generally believed that either Senator Daniel or Senator Martin would be drafted for ac tive service on that committee. Senator Daniel will of course, be in great demand on the stump, for he is one of the meet effective and impressive debators in the Democratic ranks. Senator Martin, al though not noted for his ability as a de bator, is nevertheless regarded as one* of the most astute political organizers in the national arena to-day. He is in command of wonderful resources, possessed of ex cellent judgmen-t and discretion and bold, vigorous and tactful on the political fir ing line. It is generally conceded that he would have been an admirable acqui sition to the committee. Senator Daniel was in the city to-day, making the round of the departments, clearing up, as he expressed it, the odds and ends of his local affairs, preparatory to going to work in the campaign. He had no criticism to pass upon the per sonnel of the Executive Committee as named by Senator Jones, and showed not the slightest sign of disappointment at not being a member of that body'. As usual, the senior senator from Virginia declined to indulge in any wild specula tion as to the result of the November elections. He stated very frankly fhat the Democratic party has a strong and powerfully-equipped enemy to combat, and it will require complete harmony of action, perfect organization and hard and persistent fighting to dislodge the present administration from pdwer. He regards ihe chances between (he two parties so evenly balanced that the slightest blun der on the part of either of the combat ants might cause disaster. So far as he is advised, the democracy’ throughout (he land Is thoroughly united and confident of success, and so far as his individual efforts are concerned, he pro|K>ses to do everything In his power to help elect the Bryan and Stevenson ticket.

Washington, Ga., Aug. 10—At Loco postofflee, in Lincoln county, there occur red last Wednesday a fatal shooting af fray between Joseph Paradise and Jim Ferguson, two prominent young men of that, section. It seems that the difficulty originated about a buggy. Some time ago the buggy of Mr. J. L. Latimer was bad ly cut and mutiliaied by some miscreants. Ferguson remarked that Paradise was connected with the act af vandalism, and litis remark reached the ears of Paradise. On Wednesday they met at the postoffice at Loco and both opened fire. Ferguson was struck several times and died in about half an hour. It Is thought that. Paradise was also wounded. but this cannot be verified, as Loco Is fifteen miles from any rail road station lit a sparsely settled region. Eczema—!Vo Cure, !to Pay.
