BODY (RIMMED BY TRAIN.
Ge<irg" Bass, a well known farmer,
aged about 45 years, was either killed
by the Warm Springs special on the
Southern railway Saturday night or he
was slain and his body placed on the
tracks to be run over by the train. His
body was found frightfully mangled
by his son, who had gone to look for
him. He was completely cut to pieces,
except the head, which was mashed,
but not beyond recognition. The trag
edy occurred Just outside the Columbus
city limits and several pistol shots were
heard in that locality Saturday. Be
tween the time the body was discovered
and the time the coroner arrived the
pockets of the dead man were rifled by
some vandal in broad daylight.
WHITE BOA S LAID OFF.
The Western Union and the Postal
Telegraph companies at Atlanta have
substituted negro men for white boys
as messengers. The change took place
Saturday. Tbe management of both
companies announce that there is no
sentiment connected with the change,
but that it Is purely a business matter.
They say that it 1s impossible to get
boys to do the work properly. Several
of the boys that have made good rec
ords as messengers will he retained in
the offices of the companies.
ON BEHALF OF THE HI NTED.
Hon. E. L. Rainey member of

cial bill relative to the protection of
bull bats but you may count on it they
will be taken care of in the general bird
bill My friend. Butts, I understand,
is going to do something in behalf of
the marsh hen as well as the squirrel,
and he can count on my assistance. By
all means let us do what we can in be
half of the hunted.”

GREAT COVGER EEI-
Pensacola Journal: When the fishing
schooner Kwasind. Capt. Edmundsen.
arrived in port yesterday from the
fishing banks with a catch of snap
pers. the crew had on board one of the
largest Conger or sea eels ever before
brought to a Gulf port, or for that
matter caught in Gulf waters. The eel
measures 7 feet 10 inches in length. 7
inches In diameter. 21 inches in circum
ference, and tipped the scales at 40
pounds. The immense sea eel was
caught on the middle ground at the
snapper banks, and the fisherman who
hooked it thought he had a man eat
ing shark at the other end of his line.
His strength was not enough to land
the monster and two more of. the crew
came to his assistance, and the com
bined strength of the three men was
neceasary to bring the eel to the sur
face and land it on the deck. The
men say that the fight with the big
eel was one of the fiercest they had
ever taken part it, the monster lash
ing the water, and sending it all ovei
the fishermen who had hold of the line.
The line was a large one and also new,
or else it would not have stood the
strain. The monster is one of the fin
est specimens of this variety ever seen.
In former years it was frequent to
make catches of eels of this species,
though none of the fishermen ever re
member having seen any even half the
of the one brought in yesterday.
THREE-YEAR-OLD BOV KILLED.
The 3-year-old son of Ike Smith,
a prominent citizen of Bartow,
a day or two ago was playing with
some other boys in a room in which
there was a loaded shotgun. The lit
tle boy had gotten hold of the gun
in some way and one of the larger
boys in pulling the gun from him
struck one of the hammers against a
chair, which discharged the gun, the
entire load striking the Smith child
in the region of the heart, killing him
instantly.
BOUGHT GRAZING LAND.
The largest real estate deal that
has been made in Arcadia for some
time was consummated Friday when
John A. Graham of Braidentown, agent
for a New Orleans syndicate, sold 46,-
000 acres of grazing land to Messrs.
J. N. Hollingsworth, \V. W. Langford,
W. H. Hooker, W. H. Simmons and
Parker Bros., the consideration being
*25 .000. The purchasers are all cattle
men, who have in the past used the
land for grazing.
PRIVATE CAR BIRNED.
The private car of Capt. D. E. Max
well of the Seaboard Air Line and
two day coaches of the Atlantic Coast
Line were partially destroyed by fire
in the Terminal Station at Jackson
ville Sunday night. The fire was
caused by the explosion of a lamp in
one of the day coaches, and it spread
rapidly to the adjoining coach and pri
vate car. An engine was attached to
the coaches, and they were pulled from
under the station to a point near the
Myrtle avenue crossing, where the
flames were extinguished by the fire
department, which had been called
out. The damage to the private car
and coaches will amount to about *l.-
500.
DOROTHY, TAGGED FOR SEATTLE.
From Herefordshire, England, a
Quarter of the Way ’Round the
World.
From the New York- Sun.
Dorothy Rice, a blue-eyed English
girl, 10 yeais old, tagged for Seattle,
was the pet of the second cabin pas
sengers of the Cunarder Umbria, in
from Liverpool and Queenstown. She
is from Herefordshire, where she has
been living two years in charge of
relatives while her parents have been
trying to win fortune in America. The
father went gold-seeking in Alaska,
and, failing, went to Seattle, where
he had left his wife. There they went
into business together and are pros
pering. They sent for the little girl
a month ago. When she reaches Seat
tle she will have traveled a quarter
of the way around the globe. The
second cabin stewardess of the Um
bria took care of her to this port, and
on her way by train across the con
tinent she will be cared for by the
conductors. The tag she wears tells
ber name and her destination.
MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local ami General Acer* of Ship*
anil Shipping.
For the first time in weeks there
were six coastwise steamships <n port
yesterday. This is seldom, for as a
general thing from three to four is the
port fleet. The coastwise lines are re
ported to be doing a good business,
with the prospects for the summer
showing to fully equal, if not exceed,
that of any previous season. All classes
of freight are being handled.
The steamboat Two States departed
yesterday for Stoney Bluff and way
landings. She had a full lrtad of freight,
and there was more than the ordinary
number of passengers.
During the last seven years Germany
has laid 7,375 miles of cable, at a cost
of over J 7,000,000.
From the Marine Journal.
The marine engineers’ as well as
other union labor organizations' strikes
at the present time remind us that
millions on millions of dollars are lost
to wages, production, markets and
wealth every week nowadays by
strikes which are to get more money,
but which, even when they are won,
seldom net enough to make up lor the
money lost in the strike period. Some
day, we suppose, the world will have
learned enough reason for both sides
to a controversy to sit down and dis
cuss what it is possible to do with a
situation to the best possible advantage
of both and with the least possible
loss to any one. Then we shall not
have such absurd and Impossible propo
sitions as demands on employers vhich
would wipe out their entile earnings;
and we should not have capital and
labor mortal enemies with their hands
at each other's throats when they
should be working for the greatest pos
sible benefit to each: but we seem a
long way yet from this era of i ight
and reason.

I Every man should know about my original method of curing these dis
eases painlessly. I have proven conclusively that there Is no necessity of
surgical operations, which seems to be a fad among most doctors, and
that better results can be obtained by my perfected plan of treatment, at
the same time saving the patient untold pain and suffering. I have
treated these diseases twenty years, and there is no case, no matter how
obstinate, that does not re'adlly yield to my treatment.

WHAT BABY SHOULD WEIGH.
Chicago (nthority. Like London
Lancet, May* Fat lniant* Are Not
Healthy.
From the New York World.
Chicago. June IS.—Figures on the
normal weights of healthy babies have
been prepared by the Chicago Mater
nity Hospital, and support the Lon
don Lancets declaration that fat babies
are not hea’thy.
A baby a old should weigh 20%
pounds. With the passing of another
year, the baby, should it continue as a
normal child, will tkae on just 6
pounds, tipping the scales at 26%. A
pound over this weight and the child
is carrying superflous flesh.
The next twelve months should add
only 4% pounds to baby's weight, set
ting the mark at 31 pounds at baby's
third birthday, while at 4 years the
normal baby will weigh 35 pounds.
At 5 the normal baby will weigh 41
pounds: at 6. 45: at 7, 49%; at 8, 54%:
at 9, 60, and at 10, 66% pounds. If
baby has continued normal all these
years the chances are bright that it
will become a healthy man or woman.
“We pay special attention to the
weight of babies in our care," said
the matron of the Maternity Hospital.
"A careful record is kept of the weight
of the babies as well as of their height
and measurement of their chests and
head. Each child is weighed and
measured each week, and if the baby
is too heavy we change the food.”
COTTON BALE ill YEARS OLD.
Owner Mwore He Would Wait for
14i-Cent Cotton—Expect* to Get It.
From the New York Sun.
New Orleans, June 27.—The Brown
cotton corner is bringing a great deal
of queer cotton to New Orleans. Cotton
has become so valuable that the own
ers of gins are scraping the floors and
have made us several bales of waste
cotton. Perhaps the most extraordi
nary bale, however, is one that arrived
here to-day from Georgia. It is of
the crop of 1572, and is consequently
31 years old. Its owner held out for
16 cents that year, but when the mar
ket broke and cotton went down, he
swore he would never sell it for less
than 16 cents.
When cotton went up to 14 cents in
New Orleans he shipped it here, to be
ready for the 16 cents he pledged him
self to, with orders to his agent to
sell whenever that figurs was reached.
The cotton has been stored in a room
for thirty-one years and is thoroughly
dried out, having lost fifty pounds in
the process of drying. Experts de
clare the staple to be as good as ever.
—The Wichita Eagle has unearthed
an artistic prevaricator in the person
of an old plainsman who tells stories
of the pioneer days. One of his nar
ratives is about poisoning wolves. He
killed a buffalo and put poison in the
carcass. Immediately the evolves came
and ate of the poisoned meat and then
turned up their toes. From this one
poison setting he got S7OO worth of
wolf pelts. Now, a wolf pelt In those
days was worth about 40 cents. There
fore he must have killed no less than
1,500 wolves on this occasion, and that
is too many wolves for even a lair to
k'll.
