EldIrton, Gr,, July- 22 Yes
terday afternoon at twilight Dave
Berryman, a white man, killed hs
jife, four little children, t ho oldest
of whom was four-oars of age, and
committed suicide. The awful trag
edy waj enacted at licrryinai.'e hum
ble home, three milt b from Koyston,
in Madisim county. -Lute
in the afternoon Mr. Berry
man, Lo was a mun noted for his
dissipation, thoogli liked in a gen
eral way by those who knew him,
was at HuiI & Vsston's saw mill,
a short distance by the country road
from hi3 home. He was intoxicated,
though by no means helplessly
drunk. Shortly before the hour for
closing down he left the mill and
went, it appears, directly to his
home.
WIFE AWAITED HIS COMINtl.
When b arrived tbe ftur little
children were playing iu the house
aud the faithful young wife had
prepared supper as tempting a
meal as the circumstances would
permit. The drunken husband en
tered. In a few moments six sue,
cessiye gunshotB rang out upon the
early evening air and neighbors
rushed to the scene to find the lloor
of the little cottage bathed iu blood,
tho dead bodieB of the wife and chil
dri n strewn about the room and the
brutal husband lying ucrose the bod,
gasping in the agonies of death with
his band tightly clasped about the
stock of a new breech-loading gun.
The supper that had been prepared
by Mrs B'lryman was untouched
upon the table aud the room showed
no signs of disorder, the work of the
murderer haying been quickly ac
complished and without a struggle
Mrs. Derrjman, the wife aud mother,
was killed first, and then in quick
succession tho children, who were
too small to ilee for their lives or to
resist the murderous assaults of their
father, were shot one by one and
their bodies fell to the fioor, one of
them ucrcss the breast of its mother.
Berryman had coolly and delib
erately loaded the gun at e.ich re
quired interval aud the Bixth car
tridge, the last of the third 1 ailing,
he Ured into hiii own parson. It
was when his family lay before him
murdered that he stepped acrofS the
room, tell face forward on the bed
and stilled the hand that had al
ready sent five lives into eteruity.
lierryman was dying when tbe
neighbors reached the scene. He was
already unconscious, and the deep,
strangling breath of th" inhuman
murdere. was iinpregt.ati d with
ihe fumes of whisky; a broken boUic
in his pocket furnishel the fir.it
surmiwO fur the cause underlying the
trigedy a husband had committed,
perhaps, the most sensational trag
edy in the criminal annuls of Geor
gia while his brain was tired oy
drink.
There was not an eyewitness to
the enactment of tbe crime. The
words that pajsed between husband
and w if't prior to the shoo'ing will
never be known, lie was abs n!
from his home the laiger part of
yesterday; his wife (inspected . hie
whereabouts and ;;s he reuchM;
home last night, probably upbn.idid
him for bis ciui.luct. I!. cotiyilsid
him with unL'rv. priori. lie
eiiiitohed the gun fnun its n ek and
theslauglibr of innocent lives was
the sequel. Ii. rry tnim was oi.ly C8
years old und of good parentuf.
Elbert, Franklin and MaJIeon
con'nties are tretubling in excitement
at the horrible tragedy. '' ilufidrvds
of people hive lljeked to the scene
today and the cflicerj have, been
compelled to hold the cit)wds back
In order- that the coroner's j'liy
could intelligently hold an inquest
over the bodies. Thej'iry have not
jet returni d u v rdict but it will be
in line wi'h the open f uvs as they
exist.
There is a distinctive curreni of
indignation thit would crystalize
into violence, perhajn, in a mo
ment's notice if it could be ascer
tained that any living person was
connected directly with the tragedy,
but this is not probable. Is is
known that whisluy and a woman in
at the bottom of the crime, but it is
not probable that tlv woman in
question knew that lVirrynian
would slay his family.

While the national Democratic

four years we' should not allow
the country to forget, that the diffi
culties of the financial situation
date b ick of Dcuncr,atic adminis
'ruiioii, back ol Democratic law
ualiing oer, and are but 'direful
hi'rituges from J vicious Eepublicans
arid their administration." When
"we reprobate the iaanSnce 6f bonds
ih'lluie of peace, we Bhonld recol
lect that their issue was only pre
vented by the most miserable, cow
ardly makeshift ' and subterfuge
during the last days of the last
Republican administration.
We should not forget that during
the last four years the Democratic
party has r.cuiiomically rd ministered
the affairs of this great goycrnmeat
that it haa given tbe only obtainable
revision of the tariff, lessening the
taxes cn the necessities of life ti
the toiling millions, and compensate
ing tor it by a just income tax on
the favored few, which, but for the
veto of a Kepublican court, would
have supplied all the deficiencies i:i
tho revenues of tho government '
that it had maintained the dignity of
our ilig on the high seas, enforce 1
with no uncertain Bound the Mon
roe doctrine, insisted upon the sa
credness of American soil, front
foreign monarchical encroachment,
and reached out ita strong hand for
the protection cf American citiei )
iu every laud and eyery sea.
It b a saved millions in the prm
ing of the penjion list.
It has opened uu vast domains t

It has been fair and just to tl.

It bas. made force bills impossib

erased from the statute books of tl
