Four! Ii Parlor Conference.
Several gentlemen assembled last evening at
the residence of Mr. John Blackmar to discuss the
subject which seems to be in everybody’s niiml at
present, namely: The condition of our young ;
nu n. and whether we are doing as much as we
ought for their welfare. Many new facts and sur
prising statistics of local interest were brought
out. Many questions were asked and answered
concerning the work of the Young Men’s Chris- 1
tian Association, to the working of which many 1
were strangers. It seemed to be the unanimous
belief of those present that its work should he ■
sustained and enlarged that it might belter suc
ceed in bringing about the desired end.
At the close of the conference the guests ad- i
journed to another room where refreshments I
"ere served, after partaking of which the friends
dispersed, everyone voting it a pleasant and ,
profitable evening.

black clouds were seen moving slowly in the

THE UEOlUil t MlHLAML
Alarm Which is Without a ( auso.
We find the following in the Jackson News:
“.Jackson has raised a subscription off15,000 for
the Georgia Midland to come this way and stands
ready to tender it to the company. We have
been informed by a member of tin* committee
that the company has not as yet taken any ac
tion in reference to Jackson’s proposition.
"The boom of the Georgia .Mid la nil seems to
have received a backset from some cause, tin-
purport of which the public is not informed.
Contractors on this side of Flint river have re
ceived not ice not to commence work until Au
gust. The people about Grilfin, in particular, are
somewhat alarmed at the proceedings of tin*
compuny, and President Grantland seems to be
in the dark himself as to what it means. We !
hope that nothing is in the way of building the J
road, and that Jackson will be the point of inter
section with the East Tennessee, Virginia and j
Georgia road.”
The
land boom, and there really should be none [ c m afford to shirk from his duty.’
anywhere. The management is pursuing the
right course in building the road as it goes, and
not scattering the work in particles from one
end of the line to the other. The main object
now is to get the first twenty-five or thirty miles j assemble at
in readiness for business by next fall, and there
is no cause to doubt that this will be accom
plished.

News Noles About Hie Relegates.
The gubernatorial campaign s by no means in
sympathy with the cool wave we are now expe
riencing. Ii is true that but little—very little .r.-
deed—is being said about it here, biu not so in
other parts of the state. It is warm and daily
waxeth warmer. General Gordon and Major
Bacon had a joint discussion in Eatonton yester
day, and will tackle each other again to-day at
Sparta. The programme has been arranged for
the entire week, und lo-morrow they will let their
voices be heard in Augusta. On Thursday they
enlighten the people of Lexington on the politi
cal issues of the day, and on Friday will lay their
claims before the Greensboro people, closing their
week’s work at Conyers on Saturduy. If there is
any enthusiasm among the people of the state j
they want to find it.
DR. KELTON 13 AVAILABLE.
The Enquirer-Sun made the statement the |
other day that a movement had been put on foot |
in Bartow county to send a delegation to the con- !
volition in favor of Dr. Felton. He publishes a
card m which he says he knows nothing of it.
After saving that no such movement has been I
made in Bartow, he concludes as follows:
“ I should be unjust to myself and friends to I

The above totals show that the old interior

reach a total of07,634 bales, of which 56,776 were [

The Chronicle comments on its table of re-
erupt** from plantations a-, follows :
The above statement shows-1. That the total I
re' cols fiom plantations since September 1, 1885, 1
aii- 5/297.303 bales; in 188-1 85 were 1,740,693 bales;
in 1883 Hi were i,764,336 bales.
2. That, although the receipts at the outports
the past week were 31.751 bales, the actual move
ment from plantations was oniy 13,683 bales, the
balance being taken from the stocks at the in
terior towns. Last year the receipts from the
plantations for the same week were bales
and for lSsl they were 3231 bales.
In the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another form, and add to them

SHOT BY A POLICEMAN.
Hot* a Bullet in the Back While
ning From un Ofllecr.
and
Late Saturday night while Charles Butlc
Toney Livers, two negroes, were passing through j
Browncville they became very boisterous and
attracted the attention of Policeman William
Joiich. The officer accosted the negroes and at
tempted to arrest them, but they resisted, and he
summoned Mr. Kinnett to his assistance. One
of tin* negroes struck the officer on the hand
wi.h a stick and about the same time Butler took
to his h' ols. Jones fired upon him and the ball
took effect in the shoulder. Both the negroes
wen then taken to the guard house. Butler’s
wound ih quite painful, hut it is not thought that
it will prove fatal. The bullet is thought to be
lodged in tin* shoulder blade.
Livers was arraigned before the mayor of
Bn•wneville yesterday morning and fined twenty
d< liars for disorderly conduct and resisting an
officer. Both the negroes lived on this side of
the river and wore employes of Mr
delegates to the gubernatorial and congressional
conventions. Since the retirement of Judge
Simmons from the gubernatorial race and the
formal announcement of General Gordon’s can

Twenty miles from our city upon the Columbus

most beautiful and picturesque portion of Mul
berry creek, only 300 yards from the station, is

The description of “what” must be more
lengthy. The management of the Columbus and
Rome railway, appreciating the fact that a nice
was a necessity to accommodate
iiatte
the growing wants of the people of Columbus und
stations on its road, have, at quite an expense,
purchased a beautiful grove of three acres, on
which they have had erected a large dancing
platform 30x57 feet, with band-stand attached.
Seats have also been placed in different parts of
the grounds and the place otherwise improved.
Views and scenery fine (“daisy”), old mill in dis
tance, mill-pond fish. What more could you
ask? All that is needed to complete the pic
ture is the bright and beautiful faces of sweet
maidens and gallant beaux. A day in the woods,
a moonlight picnic—who will open the season?

The Houston Journal wants a mass meeting,

favoi in itln.i Gordon nor Bacon for governor,
and a primary would force them to vote for Gor

will give them ail a chance, therefore let’s have
