Grimes—Killil Words lor Mr. ( nriun-Tlir Crop* mid Other Mutters of Interest, Delta, Macon Co., Ga., July 26—Our section was refreshed by n flue r'nin on las Wednesday, the 26th instant. The seasons have been as regular as the growing crotr demanded. From reports the rain \\V g eneral over the entire county. Farmers ave finished plowing, and are now await ing the result of their lubors. The past two weeks of sunshine has changed the appearance of cotton, and with regular ruins our crops will yield more than was expected, provided they are not the vic tims of the dreaded disease—rust—and are .spared from the ravages of the caterpillar The recent action of the nom inating convention of the Fourth congressional district has given universal satisfaction in the selection of Honorable Thomas W. Grimes. It is with great re luctance that we release him from the office of solicitor general, which he has so faithfully and honorably filled ; but in the acceptance of higher trusts, and in his as cension to broader fields of usefulness, may his mantle fall upon shoulders equally i s worthy. From your columns it is seen that there are three candidates for solicitor prominent among whom is Albert A. Car- son, of Butler. Tne other gentlemen men tioned are strangers, but from childhood have we known Mr. Carson, and know him to be eminently qualified to be numed us Mr. Grimes’ successor. With an experience of about fifteen years of practice at law, we know the state’s interests would be safe and secure in his hands and none but the wayward criminal would oppose his appointment to the unexpired term, for at his hands he would expect no mercies—nothing short of an unscrupulous prosecution. Being a high-toned Christian gentleman, he is ever ready to disarm every element that would tend to low’er the standard of morality or -stay the hand that seeks the enforcement of the laws of the commonwealth. It is true we are in another district, but it is our pleasure to know that you are to be so ably represented in the halls of congress and to know that the state’s affairs are to he placed in the hands of one who would never |shrink ffroiu duty, however pain fill its performance might be. Dove shooting seems to be the order of the day with the spoiting men of the com munity. Numbers have been killed since the 20th of July, the time set by law for shooting in our county. Mr. Arthur Battle, of your city, together with Mr D. T. Mom- fort, of Reynolds, has been in the neighbor hood for several days shooting doves. Mr. C. A. Carson returned to his home in Florida last week, accompanied by hi.s sister, Miss Minnie. She will probably spend several months in the land of flowers. Mr. J. T. Carson and family, of Butler, spent last week with his sister, Mrs. Mattie Hieks. Mrs. .1. M. Harvey, of Buena Vista, is with her sister, Mrs. lir. Hicks. Quite an interesting religious revival has been in progress at the Baptist church at Reynolds, conducted by Rev. J. J. Farmer. Eleven accessions to the church up to Mate. Mrs. J. W. Harp, who has been so dan gerously ill, is thought by her physician to be improving. A SEA SERPENT WITHOUT GUILE. Tim Most SI range Mounter IVlilch Appeared OB' the Sew K.iudtuiil toast. Boston, Mass., July 27.—Mr. Charles A. Russell, of Gloucester, lawyer; Mr. Ed ward Batits, of Salem, gentleman; Mr. Sumner D. York, clerk of the Gloucester police court, and Mr. Albert W. Tarr, teller in the Rockport national bank, have been camping out at Gully Point, near Rockport, Mass. Saturday evening Mr. Tarr, the teller, sat with a glass in his hand peering out seaward. Soon he ob served upon the surface of the water a monster of most hideous mien. Startled, though but for a moment, as he at once realized the safety of his position, the at tention of the others was called to the strange appearance. WHAT THEY SAW AND WHAT THEY DID. These gentlemen of various occupations and style of mind had this in common,that they did not believe in the sea serpent; but as they gazed and still their wonder grew the conviction of their youth and riper years gradually yielded to the potency of fact. There before them, visible to the un aided eye, moving his slow length grace fully toward the shore, was the veritable subject of many a horrible yarn and of many more blood curdling dreams. On- ; ward and shoreward he moved, only one I but undismayed, until within 200 yards of the campers. ,So far as could be judged i —and something must be allowed for the ! excitement®f the occasion—the monster i was 100 feet in length and as large round as a keg. The head, presenting a horrid j front, was seen raised high ! above the water. Only for a moment he ! lingered, and then, as though satisfied at i having nis existence and identity thus es- ! tablisned beyond the reach of cavilling disputants and unregenerate disbelievers, , he rounded the point with a grand sweep j and, heading toward the breakwater, dis appeared. NOTES. Major Kent, a summer visitor in this locality and a most respectable gentleman, saw the monster, but he was farther away than the campers and did not get so good j a view. He thought it was a large fish with a long net in tow. He had no glass, i Mr. Russell, the lawyer above mentioned, in an interview with the Herald corre spondent, said that he would not believe it if he had not seen it with his own eves. Mr. Battis, of Salem, gentleman, said it was a sight the like of which he never saw before, and if ever there was a sea serpent, | that was one. Mr. Sumner D. York, who, in his posi tion as clerk of the Gloucester police court , had seen many strange things and heard things that are a good deal stranger, said of all the snakes he had ever seen or of which he had ever dreamed that snake was the biggest. A llorrll.le Story. A terrible story of cannibalism is re ported from Tatnall county. It is said that a colored woman killed a child, and, cook ing one-half of it, served it to a party oi S leasure seekers. The other half was salted own for a rainy day. When the victims of this human meal found out the facts, they burned the murderess to death. brother and remained a long time in this city, but missed the trail, an* standing offer of £100 for * n information which would lead to his discovery he returned east. *»>• accident, a young man w ho had been working for Crottie, at Lam hurt ville, went to work lor friends of Telegrams were exchanged. ®'' d Thomas Crottie will leave at once for Middletown, N. Y., where Leonard Crot- tie, having purchased a large farm, In,, settled. By the death of Rev. Dr. Howlht a tew years ago, Leonard Crottie came into possession of an estate, valued at munv thousand pounds. But he prefers to rt- muin in this country, all the relatives of the family in Ireland being dead. MURDERED AND COOKED. A Negro IVomim Kills a Yomiir Clillil, « ool..

Parties In from Tattnall county yester day, bring reports of a ease ot brutality and cannibalism which is unparalleled in I the history of the state, and is almost too i h°rrihle for belief. Our information is to the effect that one day last week a negro I man living in the lower part of Tattnall county, left with u negro woman who was his neighbor, his little girl, as he had some work engaged at a distance. The woman promised to take care of the child and, after bidding the little one good-bye, the father depart ed. , That was the last he saw of his child until several days when he returned, and discovered that the woman was a fiend in carnate. Our informant states that a pic nic was given in the vicinity a day or two after the child was placed in the' custody of the woman, and she was engaged to pre pare the dinner. She deliberately mur dered the child, cooked one-half of it and served it at the dinner. The other half of the remains were salted down and put in a barrel. The father, not finding his child, went to the woman’s house and instituted a thorough search, when he found in the barrel half of a human body. The appall ing discovery was at once made known, and caused a profound sensation through • orft the settlement. The woman was at once arrested," and in her terror confessed her fearful crime. The indignant negroes seized and burnt her at a stake. The place where this terrible affair occurred is re mote from the railroad. BUSINESS PROSPECTS IN ENGLAND. A (oullili'iit Feeling That Him] liock Prim Have ul Last lid'll Ucaclii'il. A private letterljreceived here from Lon don has the following: “I am told that Mr. Bright and other manufacturers say that there is no longer any large body of unemployed labor in England. Last winter there was, but now they do not find it easy to get enough hands to till the mills. In some eases they have been forced to remote parts of England for skilled la borers. From what I hear in different quarters I judge that the following statements, bearing on business prospects, are correct: Skilled laborers, such as weavers, are no longer plentiful and idle, as they were during the winter. The great agricultural railroads show increased receipts. The export trade returns for June show a con siderable increase over the same month in 1885, and the returns for the first six months of 1886 seem to show the de crease has stopped. The fall in prices seems to have been checked, and most of the great trades, iron, cotton, etc., report increased- orders at the time or higher prices, with markets ‘firm and hardening.’ I do not find any general expectation of an immediate trade revival, but I do notice a confident feeling that bed rock prices have at last been reached.” MARKETS J1Y TK I.EGKAPII. money 101 MB.

Mobile Ht Ohio Aft** Forty Years A Toledo, Ohio, special of the 22d say's: A remarkable romance has just been brought to light in Monroe county, Alien. Forty years ago Leonard Crottie, a young Irish policeman at Phoenix Park, Dublin, secretly married the only daughter ui Lev. Dr. Howlitt, a popular pastor of that city. They ran away and settled in this country. Young C’rottie’s brothers, John and Thomas, arrived in Dublin, the former from a plantation in the West Indies, the latter from the Irish homstead, just too late to exchange farewells. Leonard settled at Schuylkill, Pa., and became principal of a school there and his wife au assistant. John returned to the West Indies, and after searching for Ins brother in vain, died three years ago at New. Orleans. When his parents died Thomas started in search of his brother. He drifted over New York and New Eng land and out west. Finally he settled on a i little farm at Lambertsville, Mich., where , he has lived for more than twenty' years, j All this time Leonard Crottie was adver- I tising in eastern papers for the missing Thomas. He visited Monroe county in i Bridging the Chasm. Detroit Free Press. While we were tramping over the battle fields around Marietta, Ga.,the young man from Connecticut grew sv\ eet on the pretty daughter of the widow with whom we hoarded. It was love at first sight, and they went in heavy. Our guide had been an old rebel soldier, and when he saw how things were going, winked the girl to a seat on the wash-bench behind the house and said: “Now, Lucy, this ’ere orter stop.” “What ’ere?” “In love with that feller.” “Hain’t I a right?” “No, gal. Me’u your old father sarved in the ranks together. We fit agin them Yanks together, and together we cum home calkerlatin’ to hate ’em as long as we lived. ’Twouldn’t be right fur you to go hack on vour dad that way.” “Jim Sauce.” she replied, as she stood iyp to wave her arm, “mebbe ye never heard nut bin’ ’bout bridgin’ the bloody chasm and shakin’ hands across the last ditch. I know pap was a fighter, but after he’d been home a year or two ’long came a Yank one day looking for land. He had a bottle o’ whisky, and he and pap sat down on this very bench and fit them old fights over until both got drunk and fell in a neap. When they woke up they begun to shake and bridge, and they kept it up till the Yank hurrahed for Gineral Lee, and pap hollered for Gineral Grant. Now, you shut! If you don’t want to bridge you can stub around with your nose stuck up and your knees out to the weather, but don’t you go to interferin’ with me. Dad bridged, mam’s bridged, and I’m going to climb out of the last ditch and hustle for a Yankee husband.” They were engaged before we left. Test* for Army s»orris Paris American Register.

Joseph Block, superintendent, was blown 400 feet and instantly killed. Jerome Texter was ; probably fatally scalded and Moses Haupt was seriously injured by falling timbers. Several other men employed in the mine , were slightly injured.

I “Well, what, is it by the quart?” I ! asked. | “One dollar and a quarter,” said he. | 1 was puzzled. 1 didn’t want a quart for myself, and 1 didn’t know whether the citizens sitting. in a row along the wall I could get away with what 1 didn’t want. Besides, 1 didn’t know them and didn’t owe them anything, and l couldn’t see how I was to 6e profited by paying .*1.25 for a drink for myself. I started* to walk away when 1 noticed a sad look on the faces of the fellows along the wall, blit my heart was hard and I passed out. I went to my room to meditate. I lelt that there must be some way of getting a cocktail in Georgia. A bright idea struck me. I touched the electric button for a mes senger, and when he came l said: “Bring me a cocktail.” He manifested no surprise, but turned at once and went out. He soon came back with a cocktail, and J handed him a quarter and he went his way, leaving the cocktail alone with me. The next day three of us and the engineer went-cut on business, am: after knocking about the streets in the hot sun for some time returned to the hotel. I went to my room, and thinking to rejoin my friends, naturally I went to the bar, but they were not there. As I was turning to go a citi zen entered and asked the bartender the same question 1 had asked in the morning. Curious to know how he would succeed 1 waited. “1 want some whisky.” said the citizen. “We don’t sell less than a quart,” was the reply. “Then i’ll take a quart,” said the cus tomer, and he was handed one of the cutest pitchers 1 ever saw. 1 fell in love with it, and I wished 1 could bring one like it away with me, but they were not for sale. The stranger said: “Give me glasses for each of these gentlemen here.” “We don’t furnish but one glass with each quart,” said the barkeeper. And then I witnessed the funniest thing. As the stranger took up the glas tiie bar keeper elevated a copy of the Atlanta Con stitution, turned his back to the counter, and became interested in that excellent newspaper. Then the stranger took a drink, and each of the follows along the wall (1 wondered whether it was the same crowd I saw in the morning) took a drink out of the same glass. 1 went away then satisfied that I knew how they managed prohibition in Atlanta.

Electric Review. Two years ago, nearly, three yankee-like telegraph operators, living in Nashville, Tenn., turned their enthusiasm for base ball to good account. Their names are J. U. Rust, E. W. Morgan and A. H. Stewart, and they conceived the idea of reproduc ing almost instantly a vivid view or the ex act situations and plays in a game of base ball, played in Chattanooga, for instance, before an audience seated in a hall in Nashville. To do this they leased a wire from Nashville to Chattanooga, one end of which was on the ball field with an expert- operator, who was accurately informed in baseball playing, seated watching the game and immediately telegraphing each play as it progressed. At the Nashville end of the wire were two other telegraphic and baseball experts. As they received the record from their partner, one man reproduced it verbally to the audience, while the other man manipulated cards bearing the names of the players, around a painted view of the ball field which was placed in full view of the audience. During a recent game in Detroit, Mor gan & Co., the name of the ingenious firm, presented their unique entertainment be fore a crowd of 600 persons in the Detroit i opera house, who had come to watch the progress of the Detroit-Chicago game. On the stage was a huge landscape—it would : have done as well as a drop curtain—having j a well-painted perspective view of a base bull diamond and onfield. At the points on the picture representing the positions of batsmen, pitcher, catcher and basemen, are openings into which may be shoveu cards bearing the names of the players, and into which these names are placed as the telegraph operator seated at his instru ment reads to the audience the progress of the game, even to the smallest details.
