GEORGIA AND FLORIDA
MEN AND EVIIM'S Or TWO STATES
BRIEFLY DESCRIBED.
Davison. Ga , Nov. 25.—Lonnie Craw
ford. colored, was lodged In Terrell
county jail Saturday, charged with
murder. Crawford shot and killed Will
Denson, also colored, at Herod, near
here. last September, and escaped l'rom
the scene of the crime. He was appre
hended at Georgetown, and the author
ities here notified. He is now in jail,
awaiting the action of the grand jury
Crawford's crime was a most heartless
one. He shot his victim twice in th?
back after Denson had apologized for
some fancied insult.
.JESt'P CORHESPONDENTE.
Jesup. Ga., Nov. 25.—The construct
ion of the Jesup Short Line progresses
favorably, and it is expected that
trains will be run over it by the first
of January.
The new Baptist Church is rapidly
nearing completion, and it will not be
long before it can be occupied.
Mr. S. A. Baker has secured the con
tract for the erection of the new school
building, and is actively at work on it. |
This will be a very handsome $7,000 j
brick building, and will be a credit to
the town, and is badly needed for the
accommodation of the excellent school
that has been built up here.
HARDWICK AAD FtF.MMIAG,
Warrenton Clipper: While in at
tendance on Ordinary's Court a.t Gib
son last Monday we had a few hasty
words with Glascock's able represen
tative. who is recognized now as the
strongest man of Glascock county. He
is an ardent advocate of Hardwick
for Congress and appears confident
that his man will get the nomination
over Mr. Flemming. In Dr. Kelly Mr.
Hardwick has a strong support* r. who
may be able to give him Glascock
county, and his political Italian hand
will be felt throughout the district.
Heretofore sixteen votes has been suf
ficient to win the nomination in this
district. Hardwick’s friends contend
that he Is absolutely certain of carry
ing the following votes: Washington.
4; Jefferson, 4: Glascock, 2: Johnson,
2; Wilkinson, 2; Hancock, 4.
ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY FAILED.
Lambert, Ga., Nov. 25.—0n Saturday
night Mr. F. M. Marrow, living near
here, noticed a suspicious noise at the
house of his next neighbor, Mrs. Jennie
Davis, whom he knew to be away from
home on a visit to her parents. He se
cured his pistol, and investigation
showed him two negro men on her
premises, one on the watch and one en
gaged in an attempt to prize open a
window in the rear of the house. He
opened fire on them, but the range was
too long for small arms, and both es
caped. He then jumped on his horse
and rode rapidly here for more ammu
nition, and returned. He found nothing
more except a box the burglars had
used in climbing up to the window and
the stick used in the attempt to gain
an entrance to the house. In the un
certain light It was impossible to rec
ognize the two miscreants.
A CORA' COB 112 YEARS OLD.
Athens Banner: In that part of
Madison county between the Daniels
ville and Northern roads, is a tract of
land owned by Mr. Laban Williams.
About ten years ago a log house on
this land was torn down. When this
old house was erected there were holes
bored in the logs for jacking them into
place. These holes were plugged with
corn cobs. Under the ends of some of
the logs, in such position that they
could not be reached until the house
was torn down, were some holes so
plugged. This house was raised in thi
year 1789 by Elijah Williams, the an
oester of the Madison county Wil
liamses. One of the corn cobs, out of
the augur holes in the logs of this old
house, has been presented' by Mr. John
Mitchell to the University. This cor.i
cob is 112 years old this autumn, is
in a fair state of health yet and is as
light as a feather. The world has
turned on its axis several times since
that corn was shucked and several
things have been jostled out of plac**
while this old cob has been reposing
quietly in the round hole into which it
fitted.
COMMENT ON STATE FAIR.
Augusta Chronicle: From the best
information obtainable, we regard the
Fair a great success. In the matter
of exhibits, there was a noticeable lack
here and there. For example, in farm
implements and machinery, there was
practically no display. This can and
will be remedied in the future. It is
destined to be, indeed, it is now, one
of the most important displays that
can be made at a fair, the special ob
ject of which is the advancement of
our agricultural interests. So many
improvements have been made in
ploughs, cultivators, harrows, mowers,
etc., it is important that every effort
should he made to Induce manufactur
ers to bring their goods under the eye
of the farmers who are progressive
enough to make some sacrific in order
to attend a state fair. This branch of
industry becomes doubly interesting
when the labor problem is considered.
Next year, the Georgia State Agricul
tural Society, which has been standing
sponsor to local associations, will re
sume her old-time splendid work and
will operate a state fair through its
own management. Towns and cities
will be given an opportunity to bid for
the fair, so we are reliably informed,
but the society will manage the fair
its own way through its own officers,
all of whom are more or less experi
enced in every detail.
FLORIDA
W. A. Wood, the postmaater and sta
tion agent at Denver, Fla., was struck
by the locomotive of train No. 78 and
instantly killed Wednesday evening. He
had hung up the mail bag and then lay
down on the platform to await the ar
rival of the train. Falling asleep he
was probably aw akened by the train as
it approached. Springing up he started
to cross the track in front of the ap
proaching train, probably dazed with
sleep. He was thrown one side, one arm
broken, ribs crushed and neck broken.
Mr. Wood w*as an Englishman, about 60
years old, and had been In Florida
about twenty years. So far as known
he had no family connections in this
country. *

They ate of the beans, and were so in
vigorated that one of them climbed a
mast forty feet and discovered Flor
ida. They set sail for it, and came un
to it, but upon landing they were pur
sued by an alligator, and dropped the
beans In the Everglades. Some of them
germinated and grew, and the vines
overran everything, and on account of
this remarkable growth they were call
ed jack beans, and later the velvet
beans. And the velvet hean has climb
ed every pole in the State Fair and
stuck out at the top of the tent. This
bean and the managers rendered the
Fair possible. The management, of
course, know beans when they see them
—so does the live stock of Florida. One
of the exhibitors from Columbia county
stated to the writer that a few days
ago he saw in the leading livery stablf 1
of Lake City, a town of 5,000 inhabit
ants, eighty bales of beggarweed hay,
and not a spear of Northern hay, or of

MIXED RACES,
They Havn't the Regard of Race*
of Pure Blood.
Chester. Fla.. Nov. 23. 1901.—Editor
of the Morning News: When visiting
our county and state fairs we view with
pleasure the improved species of vege
table and animal life that have been
brought to a high state of perfection.
And then again, at our great national
expositions, lt excites our pride to see
the wonderful work® of our race, and
the great progress the republic, has
made under its rule; endeav
oring to advance to a. higher civiliza
tion the inferior races of mankind
should we not also look to the purity of
the white race upon whose intelligence,
energy and progressive spirit the re
public has attained its present power?
But with the millions of negroes
brought here as slaves and liberated
as citizens, and the millions of the mix
ed blooded people of our late insular
possessions, is there not danger if so
WARNING TO MEN.
Nine men out of ten sooner or later suffer from a weakening of their
manly functions. Overwork, a strain on the nerves, worry, excesses, etc., are
sure to resujt in an Impairment of vigor, which may appear slight at first,
but will lead to a compter- t> t of the sexual system. Such cases,
S Involving as they do the most delicate organs of
the body, should be treated promptly by a compe
tent specialist who thoroughly understands their
every phase. The average practicing physician, no
matter how skillful, is unable to treat this condi
tion intelligently. The greatest mistake that can
be made Is to Jeopardize your health and future
happiness by experiment! ng with the many so
called "free" samples, which are often poisonous
stimulants, and are sure to do more harm than
good. Your case needs Intelligent, Individual treat
ment. The unapproached success of my treat
ment. extending over a period of twenty years,
proves beyond all question my superior ability in
curing men, It matters not how obstinate your
case nor what other treatment has food It is your
duty to Invsstlgate my special facilities for restor
ing men to the full vigor of their youth. I can

cial equality is favored, that the white
blood would become so tainted that the
standard of the American citizen would
he lowered? And making our posterity
like the other mixed races of the earth
that are difficult to govern, as well as
treacherous and rebellious: an afflic
tion that is no doubt caused from what
appears a violation of divine law? We
should keep the race distinct, by col
onization and making amalgamation a
crime, that the nation may continue to
move forward by the present dominant
race. All races are possessed of race
pride. The biack man has as much
regard for the mixed races as the
white man. And the red man acknowl
edged no superior: indeed, he preferred
extermination to bowing the knee to
mortal man.
Yet some would care but little for
their progeny and would say we must
elevate the negro. We also say to ele
vate the negro, but not to degrade the
white man. We should elevate lMm In
his am sphere by colonization, protect
him in all his rights as a citizen, and
encourage him to advance to a higher
civilization that race pride may impel.
And then with all our natural advan
tages we would stand foremost among
the great white powers of the earth.

Experience of Capt. Gould of lie
.Savannah on Deep Sea Ships.
Capt. W. H. Gould of the schooner
Savannah is among the most interest
ing shipping men who have recently
visited the port. Until he put his
money Into the schooner he now com
mands he was in the square-rigged
deep-sea vessels, in which he sailed
during twenty-six years from one side
of the world to the other. Capt. Gould’s
first ship was the Alice Villard, which
was condemned at Montevideo in 1874.
His next was the ship Vigilant, which
is now a coal hulk at Manila. His
next the ship Mary Stone, which was
lost off the coast of Formosa. The ship
Sachem was next, and „the last was
the ship Challenger, which was sold
to a firm at San Francisco and sent
to Honolulu.
'“Our experiences after the loss of
the Mary Stone was one of the most
romantic of tny life,” said Capt. Stone
yesterday. “We were thrown among
the savages of Formosa, and for sev
eral days were among them, but treat
ed with princely consideration. Sur
rounded by guards, the official head of
the locality where we landed approach
ed and as we were fortunate enough
to have an interpreter, the courtesy
of the people of the island was extend
ed to us. We were told to order any
thing from the market place without
cost. Our stay there was pleasant, and
while the natives were savages, we had
no reason to complain about their
treatment.”
Capt. Gould is pleased with the Sa
vannah. He says she is 181 feet over
all. 161 feet keel, 36 feet 6 inches beam,
13 feet and 3 inches depth of hold, and
will carry about 530,000 feet of lum
ber. She has steam hoisting apparatus
aboard, and is heated by steam, radia
tors being in both the forecastle and
the cabin. The managing owners are
the Deerlng-Wlnslow Company of
Portland and other owners are Capt.
Gould. Mr. George Parsons, Hartley
Lord and S. W. Perkins. The vessel
was built at Kennebunkport, Me.
