The Mnrk# Medal Will Be ConteMted for by the Five Men Making; the Beat Records, nt Known Diatanee*. in llie Company nnl Rejstiincntnl Mutches—'These Will Shoo! for It nt 200, 300, 500 and 000 Yards. Col. Conn Has Received Assnran ces of intention to Enter Teams From Twenty Companies Three Regimental Tea him Certain and Five Possible. The gold medal offered by Mr. Charles Marks, to be presented to the winner of an individual match at the coming rifle contests of the state troops, was yester day formally accepted by Col. George T. Cann, state inspector general of rifle prac tice. Col. Cann announced also the conditions under which the match will be shot. The entries will be limited to those five mem bers of the regimental and company teams who attain the highest record at known distances in these matches. The known distances are 200, 300, 500 and 600 yards. The contest for the medal will also be at known distances—those at which the com pany and regimental teams will shoot. The medal will be a handsome one and the fact that there will be an opportunity for marksmanship to count for the indiv taal marksman, as well as for the team of which he is a member, will doubtless ad l an interest to the contests they would not otherwise have possessed. From all over the state come encourag ing evidences of the interest which the various military commands are taking in the events of Sept. 3 and 4. The newspa pers are giving space freely to the enter prise and commend it as one of the most valuable and efficient methods of training that the state troops could find any where. The contests will be known officially as “Trie Second Annual Carbine and Rifle Competi ion for Georgia State Troops,” the first having been held at the Avondale range several years ago. Col. Cann has received assurances that they will enter teams from nine com panies outside the city, and from eleven of those located in Savannah. While he has not been notified officially of this in tention on the part of the company com manders the assurances he his are of such a character as to warrant him in the conviction that twenty or more teams will be en ered. For the regimental match teams will be entered from the First and Fourth Infan try and the First Cavalry, while to these certain entries there are strong proba bilities that teams from the Second and Fifth Infantry will be added. Altogether the prospects for the contests at once are interesting to the spectators, and valuable in their results are exceedingly bright. The Savannah companies are practic ing steadily at the butts, as well for the purpose of having their officers, and men qualify as sharpshooters and marksmen in the state service, as of preparing for the matches of September. Not an aft ernoon passes but there are representa tives of two or three of the companies at the range, and on Saturday afternoons the number usual on week days is per ceptibly increased. From other cities and towns through out the state come reports that their mil itary representatives are practicing to the same end, with the fixed determination to give a good account of themselves when they fight for the De Soto cup, and the DeVlenne trophy next month. The offer of the medal for the individual match will doubtless fire the ardor of individual marksmen of the various commands, in spiring them with a personal interest they might otherwise fail to feel. “FIREMAN'S*' SECOND M MBER. Hrnutjr About It In That It Contn NothiiA to Subscribe. The second member of the Fireman, the little paper published by the men at the headquarters of the Savannah fire department, mad* its appearance yester day. The number is got up in good style and is full of things of interest to the firemen and their friends. One beauty obout the Fireman, is that it does not cost anything to subscribe to it. All that is necessary is to send in a name with sufficient stamps to pay the postage as the paper is not entered at the Post office, as second class mail matter. Intelligent Treatment Needed. Editor Morning News: A convict in one of the Georgia camps, having come to the same conclusion that so many of us have done, namely, that “he would not work,” was taken in hand by the keeper; a successions of floggings proved ineffectual, the last on© being so severe that it needed no repetition—the day following the man died. Whether he was whipped to his death, or whether he was removed as superfluous, by a higher power, is not yet decided, and probably will not be by any human tribunal. But the “a priori” reasoner must conclude that a stigma rests upon the and upon the community in which 6uch an net is possible, the system rather than the individual being at fault. There are numerous methods not open to the charge of cruelty, which might be applied with reasonable probability of success, and which are in successful work ing elsewhere. A Georgia convict is as amenable to such treatment as the con vict of any other state, probably more so. We have not yet tried persuasion, deprivation of privilege, and so forth, and so forth; only blind unreasoning force, resulting in failure; and In this instance we have to face a charge of brutality which, if not proven, is not disproven. The penalty of all transmission of law must be visited upon the offender. We cannot manage negro convicts so that our New England critics will be satisfied (and this is not a need), but we can sure ly carry on the work so that our own reason and conscience will not condemn us, and so far we have not attained to that condition. This is a part—and an important part— of the race question. Discard the whip ping post. It is n brutallizing force, and the evil is greater to those who apply the lush, than to the degraded ones, who, by it. ore sunk to a lower depth, instead of to a possible uplifting. Every consideration points to a need for a change in our methods. I trust the New? will aid in the good work of arous ing public sentiment to the need. There ia a tendency to condemn all brutal pun ishments. We must not substitute ven geance for justice. There are penalties ®nd methods which the civilized workl condemns, and we can not afford to em ploy them. WILLIAM RILEY BOYD. Atlanta. Ga., Aug. 17. i m --- 1 PROF. BETTI SON DEAD. ••e Wan Formerly a. Member of the Faculty of Ttilnne I nlveralty. Louisville, Ky„ Aug. 17.—Prof. Ulrich formerly a member of the fac ulty of Tulane University, New Orleans, died here yesterday at the home of his For six months he had suffered fiom nervous prostration resulting from close attention to his work He was bom h*re in 1838. and moved to New Orleans before the war.

(Continued from Eighth Page.) gin cursing their luck and abusing the management, the loser and everybody rise who had anything to do with the hgnt. Many declared it a fake pure and simple and the majority were inclined to disbelieve that Pearce had really been knocked out. Some declared that Pearce wus a quitter, while others held to the view that it was a plain case of bunco. The general verdict, to put it mildly, was that it was the most unsatisfactory con ?e*st ever seen in Savannah. Roth men wtre seen in their dressing rooms shortly after the fight. Neither ap lcaied to bo much (he worse for his ex perience. Corcoran had a slight cut in the forehead and his na urally ruddy sk n was pretty well reddened about he chest, but from all appearances he could easily have gene on for another fight in ten in nutes. Pearce did not look a bit like a man who had been lifted off the floor in a state of v llapse only fifte n minutes before. He had a few slight cuts and bruis s. but nothing in anyway serious. His left arm was slightly swollen at the wrist and he said that he hurt it in the second round. He expre-sed s. me fear that he had brok en one of the bones of the wiist anl later went to a drug store to have the arm dressed. He did not attempt to explain his deft at, but expressed a willingness to meet Corcoran again In September when the wtath r would be cooler. After leaving the Theater the crowd gathered in bunches along Bull street and expressed its feelings. The expressions were long, pronounced, emphatic, and In some instances profane. The majority de clared that they had not been given a show for their money and that it was the worst deal of the kind that had ever been handed out to them in Savannah. As to whether the fight had been ‘‘fix ed’* or whether Pearce simply lacked the nerve to stand up to Corcoran opinions differed. Some of the regular sports even, declared thm they had been worked for suckers, and it was pointed out as sig nificant that a small coterie among the sporting element, who had devoted much time to singing the praises of Pearce, had been exceedingly eager to post bets on Corcoran during the twenty-four hours preceding the fight. Pearce had a good record as a prize fighter, and has bested several good men in his time. The reports of his prowess which freely circulated here, were not without foundation. His friends claim that he trained down too quickly, taking off seventeen pounds in a comparatively short time, and this, with the severe heat which has prevailed since his arrival here •and from which he has suffered greatly, left him In no shape for fighting. It is said that tips were received here by some of the sporting men from acquaintances in Louisville during the last few days that Pearce, who had previously won a num ber of fights, had recently gone to pieces, and that a man in Corcoran’s condition could do him up easily. This may pos sibly explain the fiasco of last night. Whether the large-sized disgust with re gard to prize-fighting will militate against future events of this kind remains to be seen. Australian Tommy Williams of Louisville, who has quite a record as a prize-fighter, telegraphed a challenge last night to meet the winner on practically the same conditions as the fight of last night. This fight will probably be ar ranged. Williams gave Corcoran the hardest fight of his life in Atlanta some months ago, being put out in the ninth round by a swinging blow. Both men were groggy, and the result w T as consid ered something of an accident. ‘‘Myste rious Billy” Smith is said to have made his reputation by licking Williams, so that he would seem to be of some note in the pugilistic world. LIVING QUESTIONS. Imperialism and the Chinese Sit uation. Editor Morning News: Mr. Bryan is right when he says: “The command to preach the gcspel has no Gatling gun at tachment’ Not since Jefferson’s day has the Democratic par y had such states manship at the helm and such an array of ccncre e arguments. If with these they cannot and do not win. then we must decide that this re public has bartered its heritage of man hood for money, principles for pelf, and liber.y for the gilded but empty glory of empire. Let some arts' now give us a cartoon of Lincoln freeing the slaves and Mc- Kinley enslaving freemen. History fur nish's no such example of the complete reversal of party principles. If the standard silver dollar is a “dis honest dollar” as the new third party srems to believe, and the can par ty has dtc’ared, then why doe a Repub lican adminis ration con-inue to coin them? And why have all the hankers flopped over to the “gold standard?” Every paper cr person advocating the “gold standard” is playing into the hands of the P oubl can party and stabbing D< mocra under the shoulder blade. It is high time to lay aside persons gain for patriotism. Every man knows that he present plethoric condi tion of the national treasury is due to war taxes, and. farther, that the millions now turned loose, were hoarded to force the gold standard upon the nation. There are a thousand men in the United States who can arbitrarily force the business of the country into bankruptcy. Republican administration and legislation have brought this to pass. Protective tariff is the child of Republican policy and the father of trusts and imperialism. Mr. Bryan is logical and right in his insist ence upon placing cause and effect in logical sequence in the Democratic plat form. The power to conquer and enslave for eigners can and will, if found to its ad vantage, conquer and enslave free citi zens; and if it will do the first it will also the last. There is one of three things before Americans —eiher revolution by ballots, revolution by bullets or—slavery, the per petual enthronement of the classes over the masses by military power. Our re public is on the verge of ruin—wreck—dis solution. There are three forms of slavery: Com mercial. political, ecclesiastical, anrl al r ady we have the first, th* others will folkw unless the greit masses can be led to see the truth. It is Democracy’s op portunity and the ration’s crisis. Much is being said as to the cause of the Chinese trouble, and a very skilful! effort is being made to place it upon the missionaries The facts lie on the very surface: It Is th* commercial, land-grabbing territory hunting imperialistic spirit of the nations in their dealings with th’ Ch'nes*. Be ginning with the “African war.” and com ing on down to the present time, all men know there has been a gradual, continu ous but deiermincd purpose upon the part of Europe’s fmoires to seize upon and dlv d* China between *hem as they have Africa, and all other countries too wpak to resist. And of this oommerciol spirit military power is th* servant and mon arch of the iratigaors. But <hi* is not the first nor will It be the last time that Christianity has suf fered commtrcl'al blasphemy. Prophecy is not dumb concerning hee times. It foretells the deep-laid conplr nry of political and commercial corrup tion. led ‘by Satan against Jesus Christ and his foillowers. They barter the blood of nations for empire and gold, ae Eng land Is doing In Africa, ami then try to lay the blame on the ambassados of pence. God has an answer for this which the world will hear In due time, so that martyred and blasphemed misslonorles must hide? under the hand of Ood until that day. J. A Scarboro.
