Death of Colonel Holt. p, Colonel Pulaski 8. Holt died at his late resi dence, 129 Orange street, at half-past three o’clock yesterday afternoon. Colonel Holt was born in Hancock county in April. 1797, and was consequently eighty-nine years old. He was the oldest lawyer in the state, he and the late^John P. King, of Augusta, having hejd the two oldest licenses. His life was an in teresting one. With his father he lived in Fort Wilkinson, in Baldwin county, long before Fort Hawkins was built. For thirty-seven years he was a resident of Macon. He had been iu feeble health for the past year, and was confined to Imbed six weekB prior to his death.—Macon Telegraph. Editors Are Good. “Editors are most always kind, accommodating and good hearted." This was the remark Chief Palmer made to us last night in telling us how kindly he was treated by the editor of the Fort Gaines Tribune. He and other Columhusites were comiug up from Apalachicola and had re ceived no news from homo in a week. The editor of the Tribune sent to them at the boat, copies of the Enquirer-Sun for the intervening days, and then, not only the news from Columbus, but a history of the world was spread before them as if by a mirror, The Steumer Pactolus Launched. A telegram was received lust night from the builders at Jeffersonville, Indiana, saying that the steamer Pactolus was successfully launched j’esterday, and now floats on her ftiture element, a thing of beauty. The Pactolus is a new steam boat being built at Jeffersonville, Indiana, fora company in this city, and is 135 feet long. 28 feet beam and four foot hold, with a full cabin and texas. The steamer will have a carrying capacity of about 700 bales of cotton, ami will he finished about the 1st of August, when she will be inune- difttelv brought to the Chattahoochee river, where we hope sh£ will find the sands of our river turned iuto gold. «, RnProiitl Tickets for the Tournament* The railroads have acted very cleverlv in giving -the people a chance to witness the grandest bicycle tournament ever held iu the south, which takes ^place iu Columbus on the loth, 16th and 17th inst. Ou the Mocile and Girard road and on the Co lumbus and Rome road tickets have been pre pared with a park coupon attached, and will be sold at the price of one fare, with twenty-five cents extra for admission to the park. For in stance, the fare from Seale to Columbus is 80 cents. A round trip ticket, which will admit to the tournament, will be sold fur $1 05. Every body ought to come and witness the riding of the wheelmen. THEY WERE ALL SITTING AliOVND And Tin*) Told Peculiar Incidents Which Had Happened. It is wonderful what strange things happen to a great many people, and whut curious incidents occur in their lives, of which the world never hears. It is seldom that a crowd of gentlemen get together without relating circumstances that would admirably fill u place in the newspapers, rt is always some little incident that starts the flow of more wonderftil narratives. For instance, such as that at the Webster warehouse yesterday afternoon. Twenty-three years ago a gentleman sealed up a package of books in a small wooden box. Iu order to keep them securely they were sealed up so as to be air-tight. Yesterday the box was opened by Mr. John Reese, and lo and .behold, he ft»und a chinch in the box. It had been there without food or water, and though slightly oma dated, crawled off after having been exposed to the warm sunshine for a few minutes. This illus* trates very forcibly, that though “The bed bug has no wiugs at all. • He get* there all the Bame.” “Did you ever hoar about that wonderftil sh 5t I made ?’’ said the popular bookkeeper of the es tablishment. “You didn’t; well it is worth tell ing. One day while out on the plantation near Dozten ille, I went out hunting. About twenty steps in front and near some thick grass in the swamp, an old rabbit hopped out. The little doggerel about “The old hare skip, the old hare hop, The old hare eat my turnip top,” ran through my mind and thinks I to myself, thinks 1, you won’t eat many more turnip tops; so I bunged away at her; but away went the cot- ton-tail as though it had been a blank cartridge. I went to the place to see if I didn’t at least tear up the ground, when what should I find but three coons floundering in the agonies of death. 1 bad missed the rabbit hut killed three coons. “That reminds me of a shooting frolic I gol into once,” said one of the efficient clerks of this cn- teiprising institution. “Up in Meriwether there used to be a greut many suakes, and while out hunting squirrels I saw a black snake poke his head over a log. l hfid twenty-two cartridges counting the two in my gun, so I thought I would pop off the snake's head I fired, and, though I at first thought had done so with deadly aim, the snake popped Us head up again I shot the second time. The snake dropped down like it was killed, but its head would im_ mediately bob up serenely again. I thought as Macbeth had said : “ T have scotched the snake, not killed it,’ but was determined tc kill it. Sol loaded up again, and continued to reload and shoot until the twenty-two cartriges were all shot away. I knew I could kill a snake, ho I cut a stick and, slipping near enough, gave the black runner a terrible lick, almost severing its head. Imagine my sur prise when I saw what I thought was the same snake going like ublue streak through the woods. 1 stepped up on the log and there lay twenty-two snakes with their heads shot off, and llie one I had killed with a stick. The twenty-fourth had escaped.” The manager of the lightning manipulations heard the story and was anxious to tell his. He had been out to Pine Knot springs, and had a snake tale that he had been afraid to venture on an iiidiscriminating public. This gave him cour age and he said: “Walking down the branch one day, I saw a moccasin lying near the bank. Procuring a forked stick, I pinned the snake to the ground without killing it. As I did so, thirty-one litUc ones ran out of her mouth. I though: it was time to leave, and so I stood not upon the order of going, hut went at once. The snake gave a kind of a hissing noise and 4 Brief as the ligntning in the collied cloud, That, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth, And ere a man hath power to say. ‘Behold !’ The jaws of darkness do devour it up,” as Shakespeare said in his Midsummer Night, so quick did these little suakes run hock iuto that old snake’s mouth. Now, you can all be hove it or not, just as you want to.” J ust then the whistle gave the signal of an ap preaching train, and though another gentleman was relating a very interesting bit of his expr • rieuce in ventures, we were compelled to leave. No doubt many others followed, ail of which would interest our readers, and the reporter regrets that he c u’.d not be as wonderful as some of the in- Mills while he was on him, and he thinks he cut him again as he got up. He then ran and made his escape. The knife used was a huge butcher knife about ten inches long. The negro threw it over into Mr. Mark Masters’yard, and it was found there about a week after the killing. Hood is undoubtedly mistaken about cutting mills twice, as only oue wound was found on him. Witnesses who testified at the coronor’s inquest said nothing about seeing a third man in the fight. One of them testified that blows were passed and that Mills was knocked down. The negro, however. now displays a scar on the side of his chin which he say a was inflicted by the man who knocked him down. Hood has been lodged in the oounty jail to await trial. McLester Shipp have been em ployed to defend him. We understand that the Knights of Labor, of which order Mills was a member, propose to prosecute the case. INDEPENDENT ORDER OE GOOD TEMPLARS. Thu Meeting of the Grand Lodge in tills City— Who Will Entertain Delegates. The meeting of the grand lodge or Good Tem plars of Georgia will take place in this city, beginning on the 20th instant. This meeting will be representative of every lodge in the state. There will be present about two hundred dele gate*. It will be a very important gather:’.g and the result of the conference will be noticed with interest by lovers of thi*» noble cause throughout the country. Much important business will be transacted and the rlehberac.ouj of the order will probably steer its future action at least in Georgia. As there will be such a large number of dele gates here at that time, all sympathizers of ’..Vie cause are requested to*entertain at least one dele gate. Columbus has been selected for the place of meeting ou account of the proverbial hospi tality of its people, uni we arc sure that thin reputation will be sustained. Fallowing are the names of those who ha'.? v6!u#K cere cl, without solicitation, to entertain and the number they are able to take: H. A. Carter imFrank McArdlo 1, A M. Br .:.- nnn 2, N. N.

Last night about 9:30 o’clock the monotonous “tick!” ’‘tick !” of the printing office was broken •by the strains of excellent vocal music floating in j through the open windows. A colored quartette was serenading the office. The sounds of music had scarcely died away before in came a waiter laden with saucers of delicious ice cream and sherbet, on which was a card bearing the n script ion. “Editors and employes Enruirek- Sun; compliments of the Young Men’s Christian j Association.” Hardly had the contents of this • waiter been ravenously devoured than there | burst forth the grander and more inspiring ! music of a brass baud. We were ! being serenaded by the Union brass baud, ■ Just think of it! Ice cream and sherbet sand- ] wiched between two delightful serenades! Verily, a newspaper man’s life is too rich for the blood of the common run of people. We will not forget, j however, to tender our heartfelt thanks for these kind remembrances.

He probably intended to do the mate t j it the same way, but unfortunately for him, he got caught on the first foul tip. A bystander saw l.is trick and notified the proprietor. Officers were called in and Davis was arrested. The slipper was found where n had been concealed, and with such strong evidence against him, the officers de cided to take him to the guard house. A war rant 'has been sworu out against him and he will have a preliminary trial to-day. Davis is about thirty or thirty-five years of age and has a family. He was drinking yesterday when he committed the theft. Death of Mrs. Robert Dean. Mrs. Robert Deau died at her home in Talbot county, near Box Springs, on Friday. She had been in delicate health a number of years, but her death is nevertheless a source of profound sorrow to her many friends. She was a native of Harris county and was a daughter of the late Mr. Isaac Johnson. No purer Christian or nobler woman ever lived, and death possessed no terror for her. She died in the faith which had sus tained her t lire ugh life. She leaves a husband ! and several children who have the sympathy of j mauy friends in their sad bereavement. j Blood Orange, the favorite beverage, at , dtf Adams &,Bowers. TO NAVE LIFE. Plain Directions to Restore Half Drowned People —The YVaiit of This In form at ion Came Near Causing a Boy In this City to Loose Ills Life. This is the time when the river* and ponds are filled with bathers and the list of drownings is sometimes startling. In many cases the drown ing person is taken from the water, and a knowl edge of what should be done under the circum stances would result in the saving of life. A few weeks ago a lad fell into the rivet here, and the fact that those present did not understand how to resuscitate him, came near costing his life. To ftirnish this information, the Enquirhr-Sun pub lishes these directions from Dr. John D. Jones, member of the Ohio state hoard of health. They will be found of interest: First—Remove all obstruction to breathing; cut loose the neck and waist-bands. Let the person be turned face downward, with the heud down hill, the person having charge to stand astride of the hips, with the face toward the head of the patient, and both the Ungers under the belly; raise the body ns high as possible without lifting the forehead from the ground, and give the body a smart jerk to remove the mucus from the throat and the water from the windpipe; hold the body suspended long enough so that you may have tiWe to count five *6) slowly. Repeat the jerk three or four times j slowly. Second— Let the patient he placed face down ward—you maintaining your position astride of I the body. Grasp the clothing at the shoulder points, or if the patient is naked place your fin- i gers into the armpi Is with the arms on top of the | shoulders, and raise the chest as high as you can, letting the head rest on the ground. Keep this J position until you can count three :3) slowly, j Place the patient on the ground witn the fore, j head on the arm and the neck straightened; see I that the mouth and nose are free. Place your I elbows against your knees and your hands on j the sides of the chest, over the lower ribs, press downward and ‘ in- j ward with force, count two (2> slowly, then suddenly let go and grasp the shoulders as before and raise the chest, then press upon the ribs. These movements should be alternated for ten or fifteen times a minute, unless breathing lias been restoied sooner. Use the same regular ity as in natural breathing. Third -After breathing has been restored then restore the animal heat. Wrap the patient in blankets. Put hot water, hot bricks or anything to restore warmth. Warm the head as fast as the body to prevent convulsions. Rub the body and slap the fleshy parts. ✓This will pro duce warmth. When you arc satisfied that the patient can swallow give hot drinks—coffee, teas, or sparingly of spirits with hot water. Place the patient on a warm bed, and let there be plenty of fresh air in the room. Keep the patient quiet. Avoid delay. Artificial breathing is of the most importance. Do not permit the patient to lie on | the back, unless some person prevents the tongue from falling backwards, which might produce a fatal choking. If breathing ceases give smart slaps on the face or sudden jerks of the hair, and it will sometimes start again. Do not give Up too soon, tor within two hours you may he near success. THE MILLERS AND MEAL. The Kniahts of Labor Instructed to Buy the Product of Only One Mill. “Have you heard about the trouble between the small grocery dealers and the mills?” asked a Knights of Labor of an Enquirer-Sun reporter last night. “No; what’s the matter?” queried the reporter, “Well, you kuovr the Merchants Protective As sociation agreed not to buy meal of a mill that sold in a less quantity than ten bushels, or five sacks. The Empire and the City Mills have gone into the agreement, and yesterday the small dealers and people who had been buying meal direct from the mills became very much exer cised over the matter. It was regarded as an at- temp to force’ them to buy meal from the larger dealers, if not at a greater cost, at much more in convenience. The Knights of Labor took the matter in hand and sent a committee up to Clapp’s to make special arrangements with the mill there. They returned and reported that satisfactory arrangements hod been made, and last night the Knights of Labor at my assembly were instructed to buy no meal except that ground at the Clapp mill.” Owing lo the lateness of the hour at which the reporter had the conversation with the Knight of Labor who gave this information, we were unable to investigate the matter further and give fuller details. There will probably be further develop ments to-day. RASE BALL THIS AFTERNOON. The Eagle and Pheuix Niue Will Again Tackle the Amateurs. Another game of base ball will be played this afternoon at Star Park, between the Eagle and Phenix nine and the Amateurs. Both teams are on their mettle, and each prognosticates the game as won. Therefore, we suppose great ball will be played. Anyway, it will be well worth witnessing; and, as the admission is only fifteen cents, everybody can attend. Fifteen cents is easy to borrow if that sum is not right convenient in hand. The ladies, of course, pass in (Yee of any charge. If the small price of admission is not an induce ment to witness the game, just noticethe players below and yon are just obliged to go. ^ Mmioiiic Nollrfl. Called meeting of Mt.
