HER THROAT CUT
And Mrs. tCheny’s Missing Hus
hand is Suspected.
LEFT NUDE AND DEAD,
With her Life’s Blood Satura
ting her Bed. Searching
Parties are Scouring the
Country. Cherry may
be Lynched.
Zanesville, Ohio, Dec. 8. —Mrs.
Jacob Cherry was found lying in
a bed at her home west of the city
this afternoon with her throat cut
from ear to ear. The Cherry resi
dence is isolated from habitation a
considerable distance ; and it was
not un'il ate in the afternoon that
a neighbor went to call, and found
the door to the residence locked.
When she looked through a win
dow she was nearly paralyzed with
horror for lying upon the bed nu- e
was Mrs. Cherry, her throatcut aud
the bed clothing soaked in blood?
Assistance was summoned and an
examination revealed that the
murder had been committed some
hours before as,the body was cold.
Her hueband is missing, and as
he left his working clothes,there is
strong evi lence that he committed
the murder. She was Cherry’s
second wife, he being many years
her senior, and when he announc
ed his intention of marrying her a
year ago his children prepared an
insanity charge against him. but
he was acquitted.
It is supposed that the husband
and wife had trouble because of
her desire to go into society of her
own age. The people in thv rural
district where the awful crime
occurred are greatly wrought up,
and searching parties are out m
every direction hoping to appre
hend the murderer. The populace
is determined ; aud if he is caught
there iaay be a lynching bee.

JUDGEHARRIS.
Mr George Harris, of the Rome
Bar, Appointed to the
CITY COURT BENCH.
The Red-hot Contest was End
ed Yesterday When Gov. At
kinson Called a Self-made
Man to the High
Position.
The fight is over aud tile agmiy
is ended aud it is now Judge Geo.
Harris, Judge of the City Court of
Rom».
The appointment was made yes
terday afteruoou ey G iveroor At
kinson, who recogirt d in self

bur,the material ot winch Ge-.rgia’s
most able judges are mad*- .
Judge Harris appointment was
sent to the senate and confirmed
yesterday afternoon. His commis
sion was issued and will ri aeh him
tomorrow morning in time for him
to convene the December term of
the city court.
Judge Harris, like Jake Moore,
is a Flatwoods boy.He is self made,
and in the 14 years of practice as a
lawyer, he has made a reputation
for success, that may well be en
vied by older attorneys.
He was for four years a justice
of the peace for the Rome district
and has the reputation of being
one of the best that office has ever
known.
Judge Harris is 39 years of age.
has six children and is a resid -nt
of the Fourth Ward. He made a
bri liant fight for the office he has
won, rallying around him a host
of warm supporters.
His opponents will doubtless buy
a yoke of steers an 1 a Wagon and,
like Governor Atkinson, assistant
Keeper of the Penifentiar Juke
Moore and Judge George Harris,
become mehibers of some good
Wood Exchange and fry it all
over again. May they-all become
distinguished men in the str,lea
service—or Georgia Colonels. So
mate it lie. Selah!
