GEORGIA NEWS IN PARAGRAPHS.
Superintendent A, B, Coombes of
the prison farm at Milledgeville has
resigned. While no reason has been
advanced for the resignation of the
superintendent, it is sgupposed that
he has wearied of the criticism that
has fallen to his lot and has decided
to put an end to it by severing his
connection with the prison farm,
From Thomasville comes the news

who has stood by him so brave
rough his trial and his efforts to
e a 'pardon or commutation.
ell's attending physician states
there {8 no material change in
condition and it is uncertain when,
if ever, he will be able to begin to
serve his sentence of twelve months
on the chain gang. So far as Gov
ernor Brown is concerned the Mitch
ell case is ended. He will take no
steps to see that the sentence ot
twelve months on the gang is enforc
ed. The carrying out of the sentence
is a matter left entirely with the of
ficlals of Thomas county, and if his
condition remains the same as it now
is he may never serve as a convict.

be in any hurry to answer the
charges filed by the contesting form

quire about that length of time to get
it on he record.
Congressman Adamscn has received

; ;33"'" Brown has granted a
3 of twenty-eight days to J. M.
St of LaGrange, who was to have
£9n hanged September 10 for the
SMrder of G. L. Rivers. The crime is
Jaid to have grown out of jealousy
because Elliott thought Rivers atten
tive to his wife. Elliott’s mother is
at work in Chattanooga to secure evi
dence favorable to her sgon's applica
tion for commutation. It is claimed
that he is mentally unbalanced.
The Georgia Woman’s Christian

The cotton market opened up in El
berton in full blast. The crop in this
county is a little short but indications
are that it will bring good prices
throughout the coming cotton season.
The merchants of Elberton are very
enthusiastic about the fall and win
ter trade. The corn crop is larger in
'Elbert county than in years and more
iwheat was raised this year than us
ual, . :
The cotton crop in Butts county is
opening rapidly and is being gathered
and brought to market as fast as prac
ticable. The Jackson market is one
of the best in the state. The cotton
‘buyers there have been paying from
three-eights to a half a cent a pound
more for cotton than any other mar
ket known in the state. There is ¢on-’
siderable rivalry in the purchasing of
cotton here. This fact causes cotton
to be brought to Jackson from a long
distance. It is claimed that the cot
‘ton crop has been damaged consider
ably on account of the dry weather of
the last few weeks. Just to what ex
tent it has been damaged is impossi
ble to tell at this time,.
There has been much sorrow among
the housekeepers of Savannah for the

killed and marketed. = ¢ '

Bees Swarm on Man’s Head.
A cloud of bees in Allison Park
yesterday spied the uncovered head

swarm on the unprotected cranium.
Alderman Cain came to the rescue
with gunny sacks and Hanny suc

The accident occurred shortly after
midnight when a shoe dropped from
one of the rear wheels of the thiri

Mrs. Hopkins, when informed at

break to her the news of the acci

DEER HERD RAIDS CROPS.
Rich lowan's Mobby That ls Proving
Expensive to Missourl Valley
Farmers.
Farmers llving along the Nishna
River, in Western Towa, a short dis
tance cast of Omaha, and between
the towns of Avoca and Western, are
confronted with a umnique condition.
Their crops are being eaten up and
tramped into the ground and they
are powerless to prevent the whole
sale destruction because the laws of
the State do not permit the killing
of deer,
A herd of nearly four hundred deer
is roaming about the country eating
the young and tender grain and
tramping into the ground what is not
eaten. There is no open season in
Jowa when deer can be killed, and the
killing at any 'season subjects the
killer to a fine of SIOO and costs.
Collection of the herd was a hobby
of William Cuppy, one of the pioneer
residents of Avoca, a rich farmer,
owning several thousand acres of
land, much of it being along the Nish
na River. Upon the death of Cuppy
the administrator of the estate was at
a loss to know what to do with the
animals. In time the court ordered
a division of the property and the set
tlement of the estate. The land was
sold and ‘all the persoral property ex
cept the deer was disposed of. No
person seemed to want deer.—Min
neapolis Journal.
A TWO-TRUNK VISIT.

WHAT IS PAINT ? :
The paint on a house 1s the extreme
outside of the house. The wood is
simply a structural under layer. That
is as it should be. Unprotected wood
will not well withstand weather. But
paint made of pure white lead and
linseed oil is an invulnerable armor
against sun and rain, heat and cold.
Such paint protects and preserves,
fortifying the perishable wood with a
complete metallic casing.
And the outside of the house is the
looks of the house. A well construct
ed building may be greatly depre
ciated by lack of painting or ‘hy poor
painting. .
National Lead Company have made
it possible for every building owner
to be absolutely sure of pure white
lead paint before applying. They do
this by putting upon every package
of their white lead their Dutch Boy
Painter trademark. That trademark
is a complete guarantee. &
