with some bitterness the statement of John

—Franklin News: Last Saturday niebt
about 12:30 o'clock the alarm of fire was
heard on our streets, and it was soon dia-
oorered that Mr. Joe M. Smith’s new resi
dence on the west side of the square was on
lire. Mr. Smith and his family 1 werespend"
ing the night at the hotel. Quite a number
of our citizens went to the fire as soon as the
alarm was gin n, but were too late to use
anything ercept a bed or two and some of
the children’s clothing. It required great
effort to save the other buildings near bv
The pump at the jail was used to great ad
vantage. The origin of the fire is unknown

family.
—Marietta Joumsl: The recsnt heavy
rains have been very damaging to mill
danis, bridges, fenc. s end farms in this
county. Down on Nicksjsck creek, RutTs
Hunt's and Katon's mill dams were washed
away, and DodMn's mill floor waa ripped
up. When the dam at Ruff's mill gave way
the county bridge at that place was swept
away, and the nmd, sand and rock tilled the

water flows over the dam. How to get

—Augusta Sews: We almost daily have
occasion to refer to the heartless and inhu
man treatment of dumb animals by their
owners or others, tint it appears that Henry
Riekemou, of Laurens county, is the most
cruel man in ticorgia. Last Monday he
went out in the field to plow. During the
forenoon he became enraged with the horse
tied him to a tree and pul in to beating him
unmercifully withTlarge poles. The hone
in running around the tree, was drawn so
<lir.e toil that the rope which was drawn
through the bit-rings broke She under jaw
on both sides. \yhen he was led through
Dublin it was an ugly sight to behold. The
jaw was lunging down and ihe tongue
lolled out end won bleeding profusely. Dr
Harris, of that town, nidi titered it a* well an
it could lie done, and the home now only
lives l.y sucking meal and water through
his teeth.
—Oglethorpe Echo: The last grand jury
inflicted a former merchant of thin county,
Imi who is now doing businem on the hf
l»ei ton railroad. He is charged with ravish-
in »a negro child on Mr George II. Lister’s
i.li cf. only fen year, old an t very small to
he r ace. The child is reported to have been
ruined for life and for many week* lay at
death'* door. The testimony of the
witnesses shows it to have
b*en n most brutal outrage. The
alleged perpetrator has doubtless been
ai rested ere thlr, as a warrant was at once
tent to the sheriff of Franklin county. This
is not a bailable case and the i*nnUy i«
death. The accused is a fine looking man,
of good address and is well educated. lie
hn« also a wife and we believe children.
We earnestly hope that he may be able to
elthlish his innocence. If arrested he will
l»j lodged in jail here.
—halton Citizen: It may seem like a
iiiiincliausenism, but we learned from sev
eral t*crsons (among them Captain A. I*.
Huberts) in the ve-acity of all of whom we
have the utmost confidence, that many of
the hail stones, which fell at that time,
would weigh from three to eight pounds]
end that in many places indentations were
made in Ihe ground by these >tones a* large
n.n a man’s hat, leiiving after they melted a
browei-h looking sediment at the bottom of
each hole. Number* of hogs were killed by
them, ami w« heard of several instance*
where they penetrated through the roofs of
houses, in one of which a man named
Heinz er. living almut six miles north of
this place, was knocked senseless after the
Mom- had gone through the roof of his
house into the room in which he was sit
ting. The trees of the forests were shorn
of their limbs and young verdure by the
hail as completely as if done with cannon
mul musketry by two armies in battle.
Hut aside from all this, there was
something very remarkable about this
hail. It is eaid by those who tested it
to have had a very bitter taste, and
on several |>orticoes, where it fell and
melted, purple stains were left or. the floor,
which no amount of washing and scrub
bing v in obliterate. Can Professor Tice or
any learned philosopher or scientist, give
a solution of these wonders? Are they Pi
lie numbered with those strange signs that
are spoken of in the sacred volume that
shall herald the coming of the ratllenium?
—or can tbo peculiar position of certain
large planets have any influence over our
atmosphere? Who can tell?

Americus, April 2h.—The marriage of
r. K. A. Cutis and Miss Ida Walker,
which took place at the Baptist church in
this city last night, was one of the most
brilliant and interesting social events that
ha* occurred in Aniericus in a longtime.
The groom is one of the most popular ami
promising young men and a rising member
of the legal profession, and the bride is one
of our lovelieal and most accomplished
young ladies and is a great favorite in soci
ety here. Notwithstanding the fact that a
heavy rain set in just after dark and con
tinued until long after the hour appointed
for the wedding to take place a large crowd
assembled at the church to witness the
nuptials. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. B. W. Bussey, pastor of
of the church, and was unique in its beauty
and impressiveness. Professor Carl Schnei
der was the organist of the occasion and
entertained the audience with some fine
music. Tne following ladies and gentle
men were the attendants: L. S. Tower and
Miss&tllie Walker, 0. V. Lamar and Miss
Fannie!u Colley, J. A. Davenport and Miss
Mary Haynes, Eugene Walker and Miss
Annie Lou Byrd. W. E Staley and Miss
Leola Harrison, W. M. Hawkes and Miss
Carrie Bird, W. E. Elam and Miss Annie
Davenport. T. N. Hawke* and Miss Kate
Felder. Ushers: J. L. Granberry and A.
Chappell. After the solemn services at
the church the bridal party repaired to the
residence of Colonel A. S. Cults, the father
of the groom where they were handsomely
and hospitably entertained.
Rome, April 30.—The great preparations
for the coming firemen's celebration h*r«?,
are still going on and are now almost per
fected. It will indeed be a grand affair
for visitors and residents. The “Mountain
City” boys have gotten them new suits con
sisting of helmet hats, coats and belts. The
“Rainbow” boys have gotten a fine, new
and expensive hose reel. All the compa
nies. including the “Citixens* Hook and
Ladder company,” are practicing every
evening in their reel races, etc., hoping to
win at least some of the elegant prizes that
will be offered. Invitation* extended to
firemen of other cities, are being accepted
every day, and the prospects indicate the
largest, grandest and most imposing
firemen's parade on the eleventh of
May that has ever been wit
nessed in a this state. Altogether it bids fair
to be an occasion long to be remembered
with pride and satisfaction by Rome.
The decoration of the soldiers' graves,
which was postponed on account of the in
clemency of the.wcather. will take place on
the tenth of May, and all. visiting firemen
will be invited to participate in the exer
cises.—Your correspondent notices that
II. H. Colquitt is thinking of bringing his
••Children's Pinafore troupe” to Rome, for

We hope he will do so. Rome is wanting a

On Friday fast Jolly asked Captain Hun
ter to come into his ceil and sit down.flHe
then told him that he had to die; that
there was no escape, and that he did not
desire to go before his Maker with a lie on
his lip*, and now wanted to tell him the
whole truth of the matter. He then said
that Weaver had nothing to do with the
crime. That be and Via started to Atlanta
in the wagon before day. That when they
reached the branch he asked Vic. if any man
had ever had intercourse with her. She
got mad and asked him what he meant.
He said that he meant what he said, and
intended to have intercourse with her. She
then said. “Mr. Jolly, I did not think you
w ere that kind of a man, and I do not in
tend to go another step with you.” That
"he then got up and jumped from the wag
and in doing so, her dress caught upon
of the standard* and she fell over on her
head and broKe her neck. That he wa*
afraid his neighbors would not believe him
if he were to tell the truth of it. That he
then put her in the wagon and hauled her
nearly to the place where she was buried.
He then took her out and carried li*r in
his arms until he got tired and was able to
carry her no farther. He then put her
down and dragged her by the feet to the
spot nml then went for a spade and buried
her hurriedly, it being nearly day. That
some time after that he thought of the
plan to feed the letters ami had them all
written himself. That lie kept the trunk up
in hisstablc-lofi covered up with fodder until
the Saturday before he left when he himself
took it out and burned it. He says that
when they wanted to search his barn for the
bale of cotton, he would not let them have
the keys for fear they would find the trunk.
Jolly lias stood*by this statement for a
week now, and lias repeated it, in the pres
ence of witnesses, to his wife.
He lies in jail low spirited and seems to
be much affected, lie seems to know that
there is no hope for him and desires com-
all the time.
MISS VICTORIA XOKRIS, THE MURDERED GIRL.
JOLLY’S STATEMENT.
STILL ANOTHER.
ne Rrinff* Weaver Back Into Ibe Plot,
Bnt Still Keeps His Horse Mirk.
On Saturday, in the presence of hia father and
J. T. Willingham, of Stone Mountain; Thomas II.
Fincher, ol Clarkaton, and J. R. Russel, of Deca
tur, James M. Jolly made the following state
ment regatding the murdering of Miss Victoria
Norris: In November, 1576, he and his brother-
in-law, W. P. Weaver, stole a bale of cotton from
the gin-house of Thomas Bryson, in Browning's
district, in Do Kalb connty, and carried it on his
(Jolly’s) wsgon, pulled by Weaver s horse to
Jolly's bouse, and it stayed there
until February, U77, at which time they carried
it to Atlanta and sold it to JudgeC. li. Strong;
that on the first Sunday in July, 1877, Weaver told
Jolly thit Miss Norris was going to marry his
nephew, and that If she did she would u 11 him
about them stealing the cotton, as she knew about
It and had already threatened him, and that she
must be put out of the way. Jolly objected to
this, but Weaver insisted and it was arranged
that on Monday after the next Sunday they were
to all go to Atlanta, but that no one must know
about Weaver going, and that it was
so arranged between Jolly and Miss
>orn*. and about an houor before
d »>; Weaver came to his gate and called him
and he went out to the gate and had a con-ulta-
tlon with Weaver while Miss Norris was cooking
breakfast, and as soon as it was ready he eat. and
Weaver helped hitch up the horse, and when
they got to the branch hi* horse got sick, etc. a**
was before stated by him. and when he got back
Weaver was still there and Miss Korris was lying
in the road dead. They then carried her to ace£
tain place, near where he first stated she was
buried and buried her. and some four or five
after that _Weaver came over to his
the place
* u * hogs
house, and they visited
she was buried and
had been rooting in the grave, and had exposed
— night soon after, and carried her U.
the place where she was found; say they tied her
up in old sacks and hauled her to the fence on
the two hind wheels of a oue-horse wagon. The
statement lias made no particular change in the
minds of the people. A large uumber, and prob
ably a majority, believe Weaver is in some way
concerned in the murder, and believe if he is.
THB RAILROAD COMMISSION.
Office of the Railroad Commission,
Atlanta, Ga. May 1, 1880.—To his Excel
lency Alfred H. Colquitt, Governor of Geor-
Sir: In compliance with law we re
spectfully submit this our first semi
annual report
Appointed on the 15th of October, 1879,
our meeting was unavoidably delayed by
reason of the serious illness of a member of
the board till the 10th of November, on
which day we organized by the election of
J antes M. Smith chairman and Robert A.
Bacon secretary of the commission. We
fake occasion here to bear testimony to his
value and efficiency of the latter in'the dis
charge of the duties, for which his large
previous railroad experience and familiarity
with all the technical detail* of railroad
management eminently qualified him.
Our first businc&s was to determine care
fully the exact extent and nature of our
duties. Of the three commissioners only
one was, by tbeoct, supposed to be poi-
sessed of previous railroad experi-
*, and »o to the majority of the board,
the problems presented were not only diffi
cult and delicate, but also new.
We divided out the field of labor as the
law suggests—assigning to one member the
legal and constitutional points involved,
and the questions of chartered rights; to
another the study of general principles aud

the lunatic aariam at MilledgeviUe inthecusto-
dajr of a guard appointed by the principal keeper
of the penitentiary, r -ached the asylum in doe

T poo hi* arrival there, the board of examining
phytidan* lasted the strength of Mr. HiU'a mind

the appreciation of economical and business
laws, and to the third that part of our duties
requiring previous practical railroad expe
rience.
The objects of the law were obvious, viz-.
The prevention of extortion and unjust dis
crimination.
The |*owers bestowed to accomplish these
objects were very great—so large, indeed, as
to fill us with a profound sense of responsi
bility in their exercise. These powers are
enumerated chiefly in sections 5. 6,7. 8 and
15 of the act of October 14, 1879, which,
when boiled down and stated untechnically,
make it the duty of the commission to pre
vent extortion and unjust discrimination
by making just and reasonable rates for ln 8-
freight and passengers; by making all nec
essary rules ami regulations, and by pub
lishing the same effectually and seeing to
their fulfillment on the part of the railroad
companies openly and without partialitv—
without secret rates or rebates.
The revision of all railroad agreements
and contracts, and the right of all needful
inspection and examination a* to the condi
tion and operations of the railroads were
conferred, and the duty imposed to report
semi-annually, including in the report sug
gestions as to needed legislation. This was
to be done as a whole, and not piecemeal.
were not to rectify single small
ami separate grievances, but under the terms
of the law must virtually codify our first
action as the basis of future modification.
The rat^s were to be a system entire and
complete in itself, applied to the facts of
our own railroad system. The right to re
vise our action from time to time was be
stowed. In all this the right to obtain ex
act information as the basis of our original
action and subsequent revisions was neces
sarily involved.
This, our greatest and most difficult work,
ras to be accomplished the first thing of
11.-and “as soon as practicable.” When
prej»ared it was to be published for four
consecutive weeks in seven newspapers in
as many cities. Of this publication (which
included, of cou’-se, some weeks of delay
and much correspondence and careful
proof-reading) we have endeavored to make
the very utmost.
It has been the object of the commission
to furniat} to every private citizen the means
of understanding his own railroad business
as fully and clearly as do the railroad officials
themselves. There is no other safeguard
equal to our exact understanding on both
sides, of the real rights of both. The lirai
tations on our powers needed also careful
consideration. These limitations are found
in the constitution of the United States and
of this state; in the charters of the railroad
companies and in the act itself. Both the
constitutions inhibit any interference with
the chartered rights of the railroads.
•‘Freight which comes from or goes beyond
the boundaries of the state” i* by the act
itself in express terms excepted’from the
control of the commissioner*. Thus extra
state commerce is excluded from our juris
diction, except that its rates shall not ex
ceed the local rates fixed by the commission.
This exception is very large, including at
one stroke all imports and all exports ;lt does
not, however, apply to passenger rales, nor
affect the power of the board over join: rates
within the state. The regulations estab
lished by the commission, under the law
are enforced by ample penalties to the state
and damages to individuals—so stringent,
that the.board feels a deep sense of respon
sibility and anxiety for the just exercise of
powers so large and enforced by such pen
allies. In the rej*ort of tne Wisoonsio com
missioner we observe that his powers are fei
to be inadequate to his duties; he is to make
brick without straw; qaite the reverse in
many particulars in our case. There is no
sense of weakness, but rather of anxiety
the use of large powers—^sitive; not mere
ly n?gative, wnicb, like thumbscrews take a
powerful hold, so that even litigation to test
them is dangerous. For this reason our
sense of responsibility has often btea op
pressive. After the study of the law
our first action vas to send
circular to each of the railroad
companies requesting copies of existing
taritts of rates—passenger and freight—also
of the reports for last year and for former

Clayton’s majority 174 over Greene aim 140

wards withdrew from the race earlv in the
morning, and the 34 votes cast for him
were those of warm personal friends. Judge
Clayton Las been cordially congratulated
on his success. He will make a faithful
and efficient officer. We learn that he will
give the bond at once and enter on the per
formance of his duties as tax-collector of

their minds thoroughly disabused of the
idea that the Holman Tad is a patent
nostrum, relying for Us success upon
the usual means employed by quack
medicine dealers, and the credulity of
a readily humbugged public. We are
fully aware of theaeplorable fact that
nothing has so deceived the people of
every country as patent medicines,
ninety-nine one hundreths of which
are not only utterly destitute cf merit
but are deleterious and dangerous com
pounds which aggravate disease and
destroy thousands. The result has
very naturally developed a prejudice
which is difficult to dislodge,the more to
because these proprietary nostrumshave
b?en flaunted before the public in *uch
extravagant language, and with such
impertinent and pertinacious boldne»»
and coloring that nothing can te said of
a reliable and effective medicine unless
use is made of the same declarations
and claims employe! by the empirical
medical charlatans. Another very

deceptive means deserves the most

was having chills, put it on, and it broke up his chtila, and. he said, caused him to feel good Ihe
balance of the year. I have recommended it to several of my friends, and It has given universal sat
isfaction. Respectfully, GEORGE W. JORDAN.
We have tried the ilolman Pad with most thorough and beneficial results, and found it to be al
that is claimed for it. We heartily command it.
