Brunswick, Ga., Nov. 28.—Congress
nian Brantley is in Blackshear to-day,
where he ate Thanksgiving dinner with
his mother and other members of his
family, and from Blackshear he goes
to Washington. In regard to the work
to be done by this session Congress
man Brantley stated that his atten
tion had been attracted by an item
sent out from Washington to the effect
that the Democratic members would
probably make a light on the war rev
enue tax.
"If I had control of the Democratic
members of the House,” suid Con
gressman Brantley, "1 would not make
that fight. It seems to me that a
fight for tariff reduction would prove
far more beneficial and have a much
better chance of success. The Repub
lican party is now spilt on that prop
osition. and if the Democrats were to
unite in fighting for It the chances of
success seem to me to be great, while
the benefits that will accrue to the
country at large from a tariff reduc
tion would be very great. A general
law that would apply to all countries
is the kind of prosperity we want, and
now- is the opportune time for the Dem
ocrats to make the fight for it. A par
tial moderation of the law to affect
any particular country on the proposed
reciprocity idea would not be logical,
and could not succeed In
bringing about a satisfactory
state of reciprocity with the others.”
In reference bo the plans now con
templated for redistricting the state,
Congressman Brantley said:
"I have not been officious in discuss
ing this matter or attempted to dictate
one way or another regarding it. being
satisfied to leave It to the Legislature.
Personally, however, I sec no reason
why there should be any changes at all
In the districts. 1 am especially well
pleased with the rapid strides made by
the Eleventh district and am proud of
my constituents who compose it. It is
the largest district in the state and my
constituents have made It the most
prosperous. 1 like them all and there
is not a county in the Eleventh that I
care to lose
“At present there Is contemplated
legislation before the next house look
ing to the improvement of the three
rivers in the Elsventh district—the Al
tamaha, Oconee and Ocmulgee. 1 shall
do all in my power to advance this leg
islation and am receiving the hearty
. co-operation of the people along the
Various waterways mentioned to that
end. In local matters there is to be an
effort made to secure an appropriation
to secure the twenty-six-foot channel
for Brunswick harbor which the army
engineers have recommended and also
to secure the {125,000 recommended for
inside work on the harbor.
Another matter of much importance
will be an effort to secure an appropri
ation of SB,OOO to Connect the Alta-'
maha-river with Brunswick by cutting
a canal between Club creek and Plan
tation creek. Capt. Gillette says that
it can be done for that amount and
should the canal be cut river boats can
come here from the interior, whereas
they can now come no further down
than Darien, owing to their being not
fitted to go outside around St. Simons
point and through St. Simons sound.”
Coining back to national legislation
Congressman Brantley stated that he
was in favor of Congress enacting
some legislation to apply to anarchists.
He says he is not in favor of the dras
tic measures as called for by reso
lutions that are now being passed by
some commercial bodies but he is In
favor of a law somewhat like that
proposed by the Hon. David B. Hill
when lie was senator from New York.
This bill applied to aliens who come
to this country and propounded an
archist doctrines. These he said should
be returned from whence they came
at their first utterances.
THESE .XT DISTRICTS TO REMAIN.
Senate I* Decidedly Opposed to the
Proposed Changes.
Atlanta, Nov. 28.—Many members of
the House remained in the city to-day
on account of the refusal of that body
to grant leaves of absence for Friday
and Saturday, except for providential
causes. It is expected there will be a
quorum present for the transaction of
business to-morrow. It Is now report
ed that there is little doubt of the pro
posed congressional reapportionment
plan falling through, and It is expected
the committee will report a. bill to let
the districts remain as they are. The
emphatic manner In which the Senate
sat down upon any proposed changes,
settles the matter, and if the House
should, by any chance, pass a bill
making changes, the Upper House will
see that the matter stops right there.
H. M. Franklin of Washington coun
ty, has announced himself as a candi
date for speaker of the next House.
This makes about tlie sixth entry in
the race.
GOV. CANDLER IS IN DOUBT.
Very XVldenpread Opposition to
Wright Dispensary Bill.
Atlanta. Nov. 28.—Gov. Candler Is In
somewhat of a quandary over the
Wright dispensary bill. He has re
ceived petitions up to date signed by
6,000 or 7,000 citizens asking him to
veto the measure. In addition to this
he has received letters from many
prominent citizens of Georgia making
the same urgent reques. He says he
does not know yet what he will do
with the measure. He regards the
matter as a serious one and will take
It under careful consideration before
reaching any decision.

BICYCLIST FIXED SIOO.
Valdosta Authorities Are Tired of
Heckles* Negro Riders.
Valdosta, Ga., Nov. 28.—A negro
boy named Will Edwards was fined
SIOO and cost in the Mayor’s Court this
morning, with the alternative of work
ing on the streets for ninety days, for
running over a little girl with a bicy
cle. Chief of Police Dampier’s little
daughter was walking along the side
walk from school yesterday afternoon,
when the negro came thundering along
at breakneck speed, crashing into the
little pedestrian and knocking her
down. She was picked up in an un
conscious condition, carried Into a
neighboring house, and a physician
summoned. She was given prompt at
tention and is getting along alright.
The authorities have had a good deal
of trouble with reckless negro bicy
clists. They seem to lose their senses
when they get on a bicycle, every ac
cident that has occurred having been
by negro riders.
DR. McCOXXELL PREACHED.
Candler Horae Guard* Gave Exhibi
tion Drill at Gainesville.
Gainesville, Ga., Nov. 28.—Thanksgiv
ing was quite generally observed here
to-day. All the stores and business
houses closed and union service of all
the c hurches of the city were held at
the First Baptist Church, where Rev.
F. C. McConnell, Secretary of the For
eign Mission Board of the Southern
Baptist Convention, preached an excel
lent sermon.
At 3 o’clock this afternoon the Cand
ler Horse Guards, Gainesville's crack
troop, gave an exhibition drill and pa
rade after which they threw open their
armory to their friends.
To-night an enjoyable dance, in which
the social element participated, was
given at the Guards’ Armory.
REA. C. R. CLEMONS DEAD.
XVan Malinger of the Valunhle
Glade* Properties in Hall Comity.
Gainesville, Ga., Nov. 28.—Rev. C. R.
Clemons died this morning at his home
at the Glades in the upper part of Hall
county. He had charge of the Glades
properties, which consist of a large
store, several gold mines, and 60,000
acres of the best land in Hall county.
These properties are owned by A. G.
Jennings, a wealthy New Yorker, and
are very valuable. Mr. Clemons was a
native of Indiana, but came to Hall
county twenty-six years ago to manage
the above properties. He was 74 years
of ago, und his remains were interred
to-day at Trinity Church. His death
will probably cause a change in the
Glades properties.

THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 29.1901.
THE UNIVERSITY’S MASCOT.
DfMtiiigulslicd Georgian* lx nexv anil
Loved “Old lull”- Ills Slorie* of
Ills >l*ll* to Hell and Heaven.
Athens, Ga., Nov. 2S.—The Morning
News has already published an ac
count of the death of old "Tub.” He
was such a feature of university life,
however, that his death should have
more than a brief announcement. He
was a poor, blind, old negro, yet, were
they alive to-day, the news of his
death would touch the hearts of such
men as Ben Hill, Thomas R. R. Cobb,
Robert Toombs, Henry Grady, Alexan
der Stevens, and many other illus
trious Georgians: and the sad intelli
gence of his most untimely demise will
bring sorrow to thousands of Georgia's
alumni, who remembers him as one of
the landmarks of their college lays.
Lewis Green, or "Tub,” as he was
familiarly known, has been the topic
of poem, story, and song, since first he
became the mascot of the institution,
full sixty years ago.
Among the many queer stories told
by old "Tub” is that of his visit to
hell and heaven, which was related as
only an old-time darkey can tell a
thrilling story. One day Tub W'ent to
hell! To be sure it was not of his own
accord, but he wasn’t asked about it.
He was simply chunked into the pit
just like a cat would be thrown into
an old well by a mischievous boy.
"How was It I cum to go ter hell?”
old Tub would say. “Well, I’ll tell you
de trufe erbout it. I wuz out in de
fields ploughin’ one day, and I had
been doin’ right, I was ploughin’ Tong
and didn’t feel as easy as I mout hab
felt. Sumpln Jes’ kep’ sayin’ to me,
’Lewis yer gwine to be punished for
yer sins.’ I stop ter ask de name of
de speaker, an’ jes’ den I heard de
hell hounds cornin’. Den Lewis Green
he ’gan to ’jecture how he gwine to
get home an’ not let dem houn’s kotch
him. Jes’ as I commenced ter git ober
a rail fence, sumpin laid a han’ on me
an’ said. ’Lewis', dis berry night you
shall sholy die.’ You may b’lieve
It er not, jes’ as you like,
but dis ole nigger prayed a pra’r long
an’ loud, jes’ den.
“In de midst ub my pra’r dere com’
a roarin’ soun,’ an’ de voice sed. ‘Now.
Lewis, yer gwine ter hell,’ and fo’ I
knowed it I foun’ myself in hell. I
was on de side ub a big rock, wid my
feet braced agin it ter keep me from
failin’ into de bottomless pit jes be
low me. Dere was sholy xveepln’ an’
xvailin’ and gnashln’ o’ teeth down in
dat hole. De smoke come up an’ de
folks was hollerin’ and de bones dey
was a crackin’.
“Ober on der lef’ side was a medder
wid red grass,an’ a thousand bulls wus
playin’ roun' an’ roun’. In de middle
was a big red bull wid a forked tail
an' fiery eyes. De ole debbil hisself
was a-ridin’ ob dat bull, and was corn
in' straight arter me. I prayed der
Lawd to take me up, an’ I felt de eber
lasting arms under me an’ I went up
till I reached de earth agin’.”
But Tub would reverse the words of
Father Abraham when he told Dives
there was an Impassable gulf between
torment and the Elysian fields, for al
though he went to hell, he also at an
other time took a trip to heaven. Told
in his own language, that journey is:
“I wanted ter see my ole mother an’
sister, an’ I prayed de Lawd ter take
me up to Heaven. Jes den ebberyting
growed bright an’ Jacob's ladder fell
at my feet I dumbed up de ladder
an’ passed all de stars an’ de moon,
an’ come to de pearly gates. Heaven
is a pretty place, Its flo’ is ob glass:
its walls Is all wite and plckters
hang on de walls. When I got
up dar, all de folks was sitting ’roun'
de table eating and dere was no hun
ger. no tears and no fight thar. De
cullud boys hed all turned wite an’
hed lef dere razors on de outside ub
de walls ub de city. I jes’ took er
look at myself an’ I was white an’
had er crown on my head an’ a goldln
harp In my han’s. I looked down on
de flo’ an' saw somethin’ look like er
plum, so I picked It up an’ et it. It
was de bes’ eattn’ I ebber had in my
life. No sooner had I done It, dan de
Lawd said. ‘Lewis, guess you’d better
go now’; so I was led to der gates
an’ drapped down ter erth agin.” The
story of his trips to heaven and hell
and many such other stories Tub used
to tell will long linger In the memories
of those to whom he told them.
But Tub is gone. He was burled
yesterday afternoon. Many of the most
distinguished citizens of the commun
ity, for memory's sake, paid tribute
to his ashes.

witnessed the contest of the dozen or
more players this afternoon. Thanks

BAD BUSINESS IN LAURENS.
Young White Men Chased From
House lit Nighl and One Shot
Dawn.
Columbia, Nov. 28.—There was great
excitement In Laurens yesterday. Dur
ing the night previous Mr. Clarence
E. Babb had shot and seriously wound
ed a young man named Sullivan who
was caught in a lady’s house between
12 and 1 o’clock.
Mr. Babb was awakened by screams
and jumped out of bed and, without
making any attempt to dress himself,
grabbed his pistol and ran out into the
yard. The screams came from the
home of some most estimable ladies
nearby, and Mr. Babb saw two men
hurl themselves out of a window.
Barefooted and in airy attire, he gave
chase. For four hundred yards he
pursued one of the fleeing negroes, as
he supposed they were. He fired three
shots, none taking effect. Finally the
man pursued stooped as if to pick up
a rock, and a bullet from Mr. Babb’s
pistol hit him. The wounded man fell
and rolled under a house. Mr. Babb
stooped and as it was a moonlit night,
saw the party roll over and over to the
far side of the house. By the time the
wounded man emerged from under the
house, Mr. Babb had intercepted him.
The dazed fellow 1 did not know which
way to turn until Mr. Babb halted
him. Great was the captor's surprise
tc find that he had been pursuing a
white man.
The latter could give no account of
himself, and would not disclose the
identity of his partner, who escaped,
although other neighbors were on the
scene with shotguns by the time Mr.
Babb brought down his man. The
whole thing seems to be shrouded in
mystery. If the wounded man was
drinking he did good sprinting for a
man in that condition. Burglary can
be the only plausible excuse suggest
ed.
It is said that feeling against young
Sullivan was bitter at first, but there
was no danger of violence being done
him. His father is a dispensary at
tache and is well connected. The boy’s
wounds may not be of a dangerous
character. It seems the wounded man
and his unknown partner had been
drinking freely.
Had not this boy been brought down
In his flight, some poor darkey might
have been hanging to a tree—as an
example.
Mr. Babb was quite a hero yester
day. Getting up on a cold night and
running, bajrefooted, across cotton
patches and over rocks, requires'en
durance. He fell once and nearly de
nuded himself. His tow apparel was
blood stained and he might easily have
been taken for a xvounded man rather
than the one whom he shot.
