Discharged United States Soldier, Who is Dead Shot, Leaves Trail of Blood As He Flees to the Swamps. Pur | sued Toward Florida Line by Angry Posse.?Will be Lynched. Thomasville, Ga., Aug. 29.?Leaving behind him three dead officers, whom he shot to escape being captured, Charles Williams, a negro outlaw, is fleeing toward the Florida swamps with a posse pursuing. Those who have fallsn victims to the negro's deadly aim are Sheriff D. W. Tyler, of Grady county; Marshal Eugene Cardell, of Cairo, and Deputy Sheriff James Hunnicutt, of Thomas county. The negro began his career of murder in Grady county Monday night while resisting arrest at the hands of Sheriff Tyler. He shot the officer dead. A posse headed by Marshal Cardell pursued Williams and Tues55 day night surrounded him in a cabin. m The negro who had barricaded him~~ self in the cabin was ordered to surI render, being tol? if he did not do so, ' ? u ' mi,? ne wouiu. ue auuu. xuc acgiu no response, but opened fire. The posse prepared to close in on him, headed by Marshall Cardell. Within a few seconds a second shot was fired from the cabin window. This shot ended the life of the marshal. When they saw their leader fall, the members of the posse ran to his assistance. This gave Williams an opportunity and, firing as he ran, he made his escape. Another posse, headed by Deputy Sheriff Hunnicutt, of Thomas, took up the pursuit and came in sight of Williams yesterday afternoon. The negro immediately opened fire and killed Deputy Hunnicutt. This demoralized the posse and the negro again escaped. Sheriff Hight, of Thomas, has organized another posse and bloodhounds are again chasing the fugitive. All the members of the posse have sworn to continue the chase until thfe outlaw is killed. The negro has a repeating rifle and plenty of ammunition. He is fearless and a dead shot, and is said to be a discharged United States soldier. CATARRH \ and Catarrhal Headaches are quickly relieved by Nosena.

The reptile was of the species known as the water rattler and was probably the largest seen in this section. A colored man discovered the snake and prevented it from going into a pond while he called help and the snake was shot. When measured, it was found to be six feet long and weighed 40 pounds and was said to have been nearly six inches in diameter. This is a genuine, bonafide snake story and is vouched for by a number of rt prominent gentlemen who saw the reptile themselves. Threw Daughter Into River. Detroit, Mich., Aug. 29.?Albert Stemmelen, a bookkeeper, walked | into police headquarters last night and announced that he had thrown his two year old daughter in the river as a sacrificial atonement for his sins.

J., August 29.?In the presence of a number of boarders in the New Jersey House, a hotel of which he was the proprietor Robert S. Gazzatt, 47 years old, today shot and perhaps mortally wounded his wife Irene, seriously wounded his 9 year-old daughter, Mollie, and then killed himself. Domestic trouble is said to have been the cause of the tragedy. The couple quarreled in the hotel dining room during the dinner hour. Gazzatt pulled a revolver and began firing at his wife. She fell with a bullet in her leg and the child rushed between her parents to shield her mother and was shot in the side. When the child fell, Gazzatt fired two other bullets into his wife's prostrate form and then sent the remaining bullet into his own brain. . A Humane Appeal.

Justice Not Wanted. * A Nashville lawyer once had a client noted for his unscrupulous business methods. The client lived in a small town, and Bought and sold country produce. If the price of potatoes went up after he had contracted to purchase the crop, he would refuse to take them at the market price. If the price went down, however, he was surer than death or taxes to claim them at the prevailing market figure. Naturally, this policy got him into frequent and bitter litigation. On one occasion he had become involved in a case based on a deal in potatoes. The man who owned the potatoes brought suit and the case was taken before a local justice. The lawyer conducted the defense along purely technical lines and the case was taken under advisement by the justice. The client was called away on business in Chattanooga before the justice had rendered his decision, so when the latter brought in a verdict ad verse to the plaintiff, the lawyer, in his somewhat unexpected triumph, wired his client: Justice has triumphed. Immediately came back the startled reply: Take an appeal ! Health ia the Caaal Zoae.

The Williamson Plan in Aiken Conntv. Aiken, Aug. 29.?A large number of Aiken county farmers have planted their corn and cultivated it by the Williamson plan this year. In every instance the corn that is now on the land proves that the mode of cultivation employed by Mr. Williamson comes up fully to what is claimed for it. In many cases it was tested by a few rows in a large field and these rows now have several times as much corn on them as the others. The vai rious tests prove beyond a doubt that the method is a distinctive success, and it will be extensively used all over the county next year. Those who have employed the method this year are expecting a yield of 50 to 75 bushels per acre. Columbus Wright, a colored barber of Spartanburg, broke his arm between the elbow and shoulder while pitching in a baseball game on last week. Messrs. M. L. Bonham and M. C. Long, of Anderson, and Mr. Jotin J. McSwain, of Greenville, are already avowed candidates to succeed Solicitor Boggs. It is claimed indigestion is the National disease.
