Within three hours after the mur

Kl bank messengers of $25,000 and
?aptured a man describing himself

Dr. McXttUghton Will Pay Penalty.
Atlanta, Ga., July 12. ? The su
preme court has handed down a de
cision denying Dr. W. J. McNaugh
ton's extraordinary motion for a
new trial. Dr. McNaughton was
first convictted of the murder of
Fred Flanders, of Swainsboro, in
Emanuel county superior court.
? Mrs. Mattie Flanders, wif% of the
dead man, was charged with com?
pllcity in the crime. Attorneys for
the condemed man appealed the
case to the supreme court of Geor
gia, and that tribunal affirmed the
decision of the lower court. Mc
Naughton then carried the case to
the supreme court of the United
States on a technicality, and again
[the decision of the Emanuel' court
was sustained. Following this the
physicians lawyers in an effort to
halt the execution secured another
rrevlew of the case by the supreme
court of Georgia on an extraordina
ry motion for a new trial. Dr. Mc
Naughton is now being held in the
Chatham county jail and will be -re
sentenced.
Major Richards Resigns.
In a communication addressed to
Col. W. W. Lewis, commander of
the First regiment, who is now in
camp at Anniston, Ala., Major John
G. Richards, Jr., of Liberty Hill,
jhas tendered his ? resignation as
[Major of the First infantry, N. <1.
S. C., to take effect as soon as his
successor can be appointed. Maj.
Richards has rendered more than
eighteen years of continuous ser
vice with the National Guard of the
state. In his letter to Col. Lewis
[he says: u
"My public duties, together with
private demands upon my time,
make it impossible for me to de
vote the time to the National Guard
that its Importance demands and the
service should receive."
To lie Completed This Fall.
I The Catholic congrgeation of this
city expect to have their new church
ready for services this fall by the
! time tourists arrive. An architect in
[Washington Is now at work making
plans which will be submitted soon.
|The site for the new church i^ on
the northeast corner lot of "Blooms
jbury" on North Lyttleton street.
The new church is to be a hand
some one, costing about $25,000.
It Is very likely that the congrega
tion will also erect a handsome rec
tory on the lot adjoining the church,
.which will be another addition to
that part of the city.

Senator lieu TIIIiiimu Plan* Orcatcst
IJviuK Battleship.
Washington, July 10. Senator
Tillman, of South Carolina, today
sought to luunch in the Senate u
movement to have the United States
build the best battleship t lie world
can ever construct, and then with
draw from the imernational race
for big battleships, but the move
ment stuck In the ways.
The South .Carolina Senator had
his battleship resolution all pre
pared, and showed It to numerous
Senators, but decided to tiefer its
presentation ou account of the Lorl
mer case having the right of >yay.
Senator Tillman would name the
proposed dreadnaught the "Ter
ror." He would provide the maxi
mum thickness of armor, the max
imum size of gun, the maximum of
speed and the iiiaximum size that
would enter dry docks and pass
through the Panama Canal. Sena
tor Tillman preferred the name of
"Terror" to "Skeered - o- fcJuthln"
suggested once by Senator John
Sharp Williams in the Hou6e as
the name for an American ship out*
ranking in size the English dread
naughts.
Senator Tillman's resolution will
call upon the naval affairs commit
tee to investigate the details of
the very best battleship possible
and to report whether one such
overpowering vessel would not be
better for the United States than
to continue "by increasing taxation
to spend the millions and mil
lions of dollars now In prospect In
the race for naval supremacy."
"Let us find out just how far
we can go with any degree of safe
ty, and go there at once," said Sen
ator Tillman. "I^et the 'Terror' be
come the peacemaker of the world;
let us leave some money In the
treasury for other and more neces
sary and useful expenditures, such
as good *oads, controlling the floods
of the Mississippi, draining swamp
lands in the south and irrigating
the lands in the West."
