In that section. They are called holiness
people, and ciaim to have been baptized
in fire and burning lava. They claim to
have dynamite and lyddite in their souls.
They hold all-day services, dance until ex

seem terribly in earnest and are attracting
a great deal of attention.

Heur Hnnting In Wllkiuann.
Dublin Courier-Dispatch: Recently the
people of Wilkinson county indulged in
seven days of bear hunting. On Thursday
last a large black bear was discovered
near Irwlmon and the people immediate
ly gave chase with dogs. He eluded the
dogs, but was again jumpc*d Friday, and
all day kept in advance of the hounds.
Saturday he was humeri again, but when
he heard the bark of the dogs made
straight for river swamp, a distance
of twelve or fifteen miles, and was lost.
The hunt afforded much fun for thoae
who indulged in it, but there came no
reward in snape of bear meat.
Young Men Killed.
Athena Banner: Mr. Bob Crowley, one
of the raoit promising young men of Ogle
thorpe county was den tally killed yes
terday, (Saturday/, morning on the plan
tation near Crawford, Ga. In compony
wita Mr. B. Banks he went out squirrel
hunting and had sa: down in the shade
to eat a melon. Mr. Hanks dropped his
gun across his lap, and as he did so ‘.t
discharged its entire contents into the
body of Crowley, killing him instantly.
Mr. Crowiey was about sixteen years old,
the son of Mr J. B. Oowley, and bid fair
to make a most useful man.
Cotton f>aimi£t*l by Dronelit.
Americus Farmers in
the city yesterday brought distressing re
ports of the cotton crop in Sumter and
adjacent counties. The drougnt, torrid
heat and blistering winds of the past
ten days has wrought irreparable loss
and the yield, in the opinion of conser
vative farmers, has been cut off twenty
five per cent within that time. On many
plantations can be seen wide stretches of
cotton that is shriveled and dead, and
only the immature bo.is upon it will open.
There is not a section of Sumter in which
the drought has not caused vast damage
to* the cotton crop, and the change with
in ten days has been complete. There was
a slight rain yesterday but not in quan
tity sufficient to revive cotton.

Whfnky Barrel Exploded.
Macon Telegraph: One of the most pe
culiar accidents ever noted in Macon oc
curred at Valentino s saloon Friday after
noon. and oatn* very near proving serious
to Mr. Charlie Stubbs, who is employed at
the bar. Mr Stubbs wanted to learn how
much whisky was in a certain barrel, and
the idea of holding a match at the bung
suggested itself to him. He struck the
match and placed it just inside the bung
and peered in. As soon as the flame was
on the inside of the barrel there was u
terrific report and a Ham** shot out of the
bung right into Mr. Stubbs’s face, pain
fully burning his right eye and the side of
his face. The end of the barrel burst and
blew half way across the house, and the
explosion could be heard a hundred yards.
A stove sitting near shifted its position to
the opposite side of the house. Mr. Stubbs
ailed a physician at once and is suffering
very little now.

Good Bond* in Ooceola.
Orlando Sentinel-Reporter: Osceola
county is taking hold of the matter of
good roade In earnest, and there will be
no Jet up until that county has as good
roads as any In the state. It is under- 1
stood that the county will spend at least
$6,000 per year for this purpose. By the
way, we should have a good clay road
between here and Kissimmee. It would
be a splendid thing for both places, and
we believe our County Commissioners will
meet those of our sister county half way
by building down to our southern lino

clear and bright, as pre-eminently fitted
to succeed the brilliant Adams, is Thom is
Palmer of Hillnhoro. His ability, his
courtesy, his patience and his perfect
fairness were thoroughly demonstrated at
the State Convention at Jacksonville, and
certainly no county has netter earned
the honor than grand old Hillsboro.
Good Story on Dr. Porter.
A good one. and it Is vouched for. is told
on Dr.gPorter, state health officer, who ha*
been looking after the alleged yellow fever
in Tampa, One day last week he wanted
to go outside the city on one of the county
roads to examine a person reported ill. He
was in a carriage in company with Dr. J.
H. White. They reached the quarantine
limit and were held up by the guard. Dr.
Porter told who he was and started to
drive on, but this would not go with the
guard. He said any man that he did not
know could come along and tell him the
same thing. He said his orders were not
to alio w anyone to pass without a permit.
At last Dr. Porter succeeded in identify
ing himself to the satisfaction of the ob
durate guard. They then started by and
the guard held them up again and de
manded a pass for Dr. White, who he did
not know'. The matter did not end until
Dr. Porter wrote a pass for Dr. White.
He then drove on, well satisfied with that
fan that if all the guards were like this
one. few persons had passed through the
line. 1

SPITS LASTING CENTURIES.
Generations Have Passed Away
AVithont a Settlement.
From Eondon Tit-Bits.
If. as the proverb says, "Fools and obsti
nate men make lawyers rich,” France may
especially pride itself on folly and stub
bornness, for three French lawsuits have
together occupied a period many years
logger than the Christian era.
It is little more than fifty years ago that
France saw the conclusion of a lawsuit
which was begun in the early days of the
thirteenth, century, when John was King
of England, and when the "Magna Char
ia" was still unsigned or even framed.
The legal ball was started on its six cen
turies and more, of rolling by the Comte
de Nevers, who had a grievance again the
good citizens of Donsy, and the feud thus
started was maintained no less than 638
years.
Forty-four years later. In 125% two other
lawsuits saw light which, between them,
have lasted nearly thirteen centuries. In
both cases the citizens of Campan, which
must have a mania for litigation, were the
plaintiffs, and the defendants were the
inhabitants of neighboring towns and vil
lages, while the subject of dispute was the
right to pasturage and forests.
Compared with these forensic veterans a
lawsuit which has survived five aenturics
only is comparatively a callow youth, but,
as it is'still flourishing, there are hpoes
that it may yet qualify for a place among
"legal Methuselahs." Russia Is the scene
of this lawsuit, which was commenced in
the second year of Henry V <I4OO A. D.i.
The defendants are the inhabitants of a
Russian city and the claim is for the
restoration of a certain valuable estate
which the city had wrongfully, as is al
leged, included within its boundaries.
Some years before Oliver Cromwell was
born, when good Queen Bess was still on
the throne of England, the good people of
Burgsian. in Bavaria, commenced an
action against a neighboring baron for
the recovery of a large forest which had,
according to their views, been wrongfully
taken from them. For more than three
centuries this case has dragged Its weary
length through Bavarian courts and has
brought grist to the mill of ten genera
tions of lawyers, and still it remains os
unsettled as when It began its century
march.
Just at the time when Cook was starl
ing on his first Journey round the world
and while Wordsworth and Scott were not
even ready for the cradle, a Hungarian
bishop died intestate and hundreds of
clamerous relatives claimed his large es
tate. Litigation commenced, but was de
layed for some years, owing to the dis
turbed condition of Hungary, which was
Invaded by the Turks, ond when at last
the courts got a chance the number of
claimants for the Bishop’s property had
reached 1,000.
A century passed and the family feud
was still being fought out in the courts,
until it was clear that if it lasted much
longer there would be nothing to divide.
In the end, after 120 years of wrangling,
the pitiful remnant of £2.000 was divided
equally among the claimants (now num
bering 2.000), each plaintiff receiving a
pound as his share. The eloquent moral
of Ihls case Is, that of every £l2 of the
original estate, £ll went to the lawyers
and £1 only to the relatives, from which
It would appear that It is better to be a
lawyer than a litigant.
Still, on ihe whole, the claimants may
consider themselves fortunate in rescuing
even a sovereign apiece from the hands
of the spoilers, for in one memorable
case—Parker vs. Dawkins—which strug
gled on for nearly half a century, the le
gal machinery was only finally stopped
when It had absorbed the last penny of
the disputed estnte. So true It is, as Lord
Brougham said, that "the lawver lea
gentleman who rescues your estate from
your enemies and keep* It for himself."
—There Is some talk In London to the
effect that Lord Kitchener is to he mar
ried next spring, ami that his engage
ment will be announced upon his return
from South Africa.

Morning News Office, Aug. 13.
The cotton futures market again at
tracted attention to-day by a further ad- ;
vance of 9 to 18 points, at which the tone j
was very steady. The news from Liver- i
pool was favorable, and the crop news
was also of a bullish character, which
took prices up from the opening. Intima
tions of an improvement in the China war
situation also helped to make a better
market. An important feature in the cot
ton market at present is the rumor that
Neili of New Orleans is soon to issue a
very bullish circular, which it was ex
pected in some quarters may give the
market a shove upward.
The spirits turpentine market closed
firm at 2y*i cents, with only a fair de
mand for the free stuff left on the mar
ket. It was said factors were on the
lookout for better prices, but they had
not succeeded in getting better than quo
tations during the early afternoon hours.
Factors were understood to have made
considerable deliveries. The rosin mar
ket closed firm and unchanged. The
wholesale markets closed steady and in
the main unchagned. The fol
lowing resume of the different markets
will show the tone and quotations at the
close to-day:

COTTON FUTURES.
Market rinses Very Steady With
Prices f> to Ifl I p,
New York, Aug. 13.—The cotton market
opened barely steady, with prices un
changed to 10 points lower, but immedi
ately develdped strong characteristics,
following heavy foreign buying and a bad
scaro of local shorts. The early and late
cables from Liverpool were emphatically
strong; news from all parts df the South
was bullish, while the speculative public
manifested an eagerness to take the long
side and adopt aggressive tactics. By
midday an advance of points had
been recorded, with subsequent fluctua
tions, showing still further improvement.
Friends of the market had an abundance
of inspiration and ammunition in the way
of light receipts at all points In the
South, unfavorable weather reports, poor
crop accounts, evidences of increasing
spot demand in the South, despite higher
prices, and indications of a general im
provement in the China war situation. A
significant feature of the crop movement
was an alienee of new cotton at many
points, while none of Ihe centers of ac
cumulation noted large arrivals. Gnl
veston reported but seventy-five new
bales, as against 654 last year same day.
Houston received no new cotton, whereas
389 bales were reported a yenr ago. Ru
mors that Neill was about to Issue a bull
ish circular and tha ihe Mississippi val
ley had been visited by n cloudburst, aid
ed bulls in the late session. Neverthe
less, profit-taking restrained overzealous
longs. At the close the market was very
steady, with prices net 97)16 points higher.

COTTON LETTERS.
New York, Aug. 13.—Murphy & Cos. say:
Cotton advices from Liverpool to-day were
strong. Private cables say jobbers were
caught short there. Our market opened
strong on near positions, but there w’ere
large orders to sell new crops to take
profits which checked the advancing ten
dency. Further heavy rains reported in
Texas, which are regarded as unfavor
able, whilst rain ia wanted In the Caro
iinan and Memphis district. The weekly
bureau weather report, due to-morrow,
will probably be of an unfavorable char
acter, and may lead to a higher market.
New York, Aug. 13.—Hubbard Bros.
& Cos. say: Liverpool was a firm
market to-day, closing very steady
at five points advance over Saturday.
Cables state the advance was based on a
rumor that Mr. Neill would issue a bullish
circular. Our market opened barely steady
with heavy realizing, which caused a de
cline to Saturday’s closing prices. From
this point the market quickly advanced
10 points, becoming steady at a slight re
cession from the best. The temper of the
market was weekly report to-morrow.
Light showers were reported from Geor
gia and a few scattered showers in the
Carolinas. Heavyraina in Texas on Sat
urday and Sunday. Clear in that state ito
day.
DRY GOODS.
New York. Aug. 15.—The week opens
with more favorable weather conditions
and better attendance of buyers. Fair bus
iness looked for this week. No change in
brown sheetings and drills. Spot goods
irregular. Reports of curtailment of pro
duction more numerous. Bleached cot
tons and wool sheetings quiet and un
changed. Coarse colored cotton dull and
Irregular. Print cloths quiet but firm.

Monetary Situation Given Import
nnee by Gold Export*.
New York, Aug. 13.—The international
monetary situation was given considera
ble prominence in Wall street to-day,
through the engagement of $5,500,000 go\&
for export for Europe to-morrow and
Wednesday. It is admitted that $5,000.-
000 of this amount is in payment for the
British exchequer loan, a 20 per cent,
installment being due on Wednesday.
Concessions in rates for sterling bills
were made, demand sterling yielding *4
per cent., while posted rates were off *3
per cent.
No effect wa produced on the local
money market by the gold engagements
to-day, which brings the total outgo of
gold on this movement up to $14,000,000.
It is expected that the circulation of this
sum in the European financial centers
will produce a relaxation of the tension
there.
Except for a brief interval when the
early gold engagements were made, stock
prices improved steadily, with the gains
quite uniform in a number of issues.
There were fitful spurts of activity, and
at intervals the strength was most mark
ed in special groups. High-priced spe
cialties gave the first indication of
strength, but were soon relegated to the
background when the metal shocks forged
upward Later on the Grangers respond
ed notably to the more cheerful crop ad
vices, rain being reported in sections of
the corn belt,where it was much needed. A
large batch of favorable weekly earnings
contributed some force to the rise in
prices. In special stocks exceptional
gains w'ere made, a jump of 7 points in
Lead preferred being made, with ns lit
tle explanation as the recent drop in that
issue. In Lackawanna ’there was a steady
demand, which eventually• carried it up
5 points and strengthened other Coalers.
Industrial stocks suffered from the in
creased interest shown in railroad prop
erties.
Sugar closed under Saturday’s final
price, after early strength. London was
not a factor in the market, although the
arbitrage houses took several thousand
shares early in the day. Operations w-ere
confined to the board room traders, but
some gratification was expressed at the
independent movement of the railroad
stocks and then prime character of some
of the issues parricipating. In the final
dealings there was some diminution in 4he
volume of business, but no impairment of
the market’s strength.
Business in railroad bonds continued
small, but a firm tone was evident. Total
sales, par value. $480,009.
United States refunding 2s, when is
sued. and old 4s and new 4s advanced
the 5s % and 3s *4 per cent, in the
bid price.
The total soles of stocks to-day w’ere
