come atllictei with hydrophobia, and |
baa attacked several persons. Not
wishing to alarm the people of the

State ba teriologlst, was notified am'
all wounds were cauterized and th?animal
was locked up pending de
elopments, for if it were affecte
with rabies, death would come in
five days. It would not be necessary'
1 to administer to the persons attack
el any Pasteur treatment within thai
length of time.
Tues 'ay night the animal freed
Itself from Its fastening and at th<
corner of Senate and Barnwell stree

his way to supper. The dog struct
him in the chest without warning
and as Mr. Seats fell back from thr

OWNED BY HUNTER,
Whose Wife Declares That While
a Negro Held Her He Gave Her
a Fatal Blow.
A dispatch from Savannah says ^
developments Monday night In the
aftermath of the trlpplo murder of
last Friday afternoon gave birth to
the startling theory that not a
single murderer, but two or possibly
three were engaged In the commission
of the terrible crimes.
County officer* declare that of then* l(
J. C. Hunter, husband ot Mrs. Mag- y
gle Hunter, whose death Monday
added a third to the number of 11
murdered women. Is certainly one. *
They declare that the chain of a
evidence is complete, asserting that t
some clothing, badly stained, appar- j
ently spattered with blood, which
was found and belongs to Hunter,
Is the final link. This clothing is Is p
"eclared, was worn by Hunter on the li
day of the crimes, and a walking f
cane found in the house of the mur- a
lert Is declared to have been car- s
ried by Hunter on the same day. t
It was declared by a physician o
at the 8avannah hospital that state- n
meats made during a moment of a
consciousness by Mrs. Hunter early li
Monday charged the crimes to her <
husband, and that she was being ?
hell by a negro man when the blows p
were struck that caused her death. b
The Rev. J. 8. Wilder, pastor of r.
Baptist church in Savannah, stated p
that Mrs. Hunter, after recoguisin,;
him, declared a white man had struck d
the blows. _ C

Willing to Take Advantage of Her
Possibilities in Farming.
"A greater nation through a greater
South!"
This Is the tocsin that the South
is sounding today from Atlantic to
Pacific and from the southermost
everglades to the northern pines,
says the New York American.
The South wants men and money?men
that her vaet resources may
be given over to cultivation ana
industry, and money for eatrprlse.
that their products may feed the
markets of the universe.
She h&B produced a cotton crop
this year which will net about $1,J00.000.000.
Her grain will fill 800,000.000
bushels.
Her total agricultural products
will foot up nearly $2,500,000,000.
Sho is njinlng 90,000,000 tons
of bituminous coal.
Her cotton mills are using nearly
1,000,000 bales of cotton a year.
She commands the sulphur trade
of the world producing nearly onehalf
of the whole production of
the world.
Her ports are second to New York
In their shipments.
She is spending today $20,000,
000 In new cotton mills.
Nearly a quarter million of people
are swarming Into her rich
country to help win for her the
success that has been eo long com
tufc.
Her resources are withal but
'^ginning to show their worth, for
she has lacked In capital and the
kind of labor necessary to bring her
?oil and opportunities to their full
fruition.
She has 40 per cent of all the
timber lands In the United Btates.
about 62,000 square miles; quarries
that are rich In the most beautiful
and useful stone, marvellous ores,
and thousands of square miles of
the most fertile and greatest pro-.
lucing farm lands in the world. {
Everywhere the railroads are
nushing colonies and bolldlng their
extensions, until u?e ye?f? hence It
Is believed that every available mile
of her lands will be %lthln eaay
-each of some rood.
Millions of dollars are being put
Into her mines; other millions are
going into her textile advantages.
Along the line of one railroad alone
4 50 textile mills have been erected.
Her phosphate beds are being worked
to the fullest limit of thtl. present
capital. Her tobacco crops are ,
enormouB, and In every spot touched
by the tide of lnveetment springs
forth a golden return greater than
their Investors ever dreamed of. 1
With a population of nearly 28, I
000,000, or about a third ,rL- '
tal of the United States, she Is puttin?
out in agricultural product
alone the equal of all the States hi
1890.
Nearly 92.000,000.000 will be
spent by the railroads during the
next ten years to add to her wealth.
Everywhere the cry le going up tor
better roads, and every State Is bending
Its efforts to make the Southern
roads the peers of those of any other
States.
"I do not believe that there Is
any land on the face of the earth
that equals, acre for acre, the lands
of the South. It Is a greater prolucer
than the land* In the north

the liquor handling business of the
Southern Expirees Company has

It was found Impossible to handle
the large uhlpments of liquor at
the regular office. Hundreds of
packages 'for personal use' come in
on every train. The local manager j
of the express company has been '
forced to open up a 'boose sub-station'

literally covered with pftckagcs of

another great moral Institution. It

Senator Aldrlch says the 1A07

If It had not come as It did, the
