ATLANTA, Ua., Aug, 9.—Among other nows wired you Saturday night, or rather tiled for you and which you failed to get was the conviction of Tobe Jackson in’ Curtersville of dynamiting. It will be re membered that on tlie night of January 22,18StJ, a dynamite cartridge was exploded under the front porch of the home of United States Commissioner Aaron Collins in Curtersville, and the front of the house badly torn up. Judge Collins and his wife were asleep in the front of Lire house and at iirst were stunned by the shock, but re- covered in a little while. The town was awakened by the explosion and great in dignation was l'eit at the outrage. Tobe Jackson had been arraigned several times before Commissioner Collins for violations of the liquor law, and had made serious threats against him. Suspicion at once settled upon him, and the history of the reward offered for his arrest, the bloodhound chase, the arrest in Texas and the subsequent details of the ease are familiar to all. His recent connection with the killing of young Strickland by City Marshal Puckett did not improve his standing in the communi ty- tbe dynamiting case was called Thursday morning and nearly all of the first day was consumed in getting a jury The ease was concluded Saturday evening with Jackson’s conviction and sentence to the penitentiary for ten years. Sam Jack- son, Tobe’s brother, is held under the same charge, but his trial will not come up be fore October. When Tobe Jackson was convicted, bis brother’s bondsmen gave hi in inio the custody of the court and lie will now be held in jail until his trial. Both Tobe and Sam have been brought to the Pulton county jail for safe keeping. Arriilent oil I In- Kiwi Tniliexxne. Atlanta, On., August 9.—Sunday morn ing a collision occurred near Seney Station on the East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor gia railroad, which wrecked a number of cars but was not accompanied with loss of life. Tiie old story of a sharp curve in the road, two trains on the same track and nobody to blame is the only explanation that lias yet been received. The engineer and fireman escaped with their lives by jumping after reversing their engine. The wreck blockaded tile track all day, but trains went through all right to-night. Three County lliio-xts, Atlanta, Aug., 9.—Three county digests have been received in the comptroller’s office to-day, two of which show an in crease, and one a falling off, as follows: Putnam is up $41,995, and Worth p»9,-195- total $141,490. McDuffie is oft' $0448, leav ing a net gain of $135,042 and increasing the total gain over last year in 117 counties of $5,354,357. Kllh'il Ip- a Train.

Atlanta, August 9.—Last May an epi demic broke out in Fulton county jail and Judge McCoy suspended the sentence of .seventy-four revenue prisoners until Au gust 10th and allowed them to go to their homes, trusting to them to return at that time and flnish out their sentences. To morrow the time expires and only two have arrived yet. Slriiy shots. Atlanta, August 9.—Atlanta has had two very cool nights and mornings. Senator Brown and family have returned from Washington. Senator Brown thinks it will be some weeks before the vacancy in the district judgeship is Ailed by Presi dent Cleveland. A number of delegates to the state agri cultural convention are in the city to-day cn route for Cartersville, where the asso ciation meets to-morrow. I i , ®'] pret fy ‘“bernacle.

The mill men all regret to employ the last resort of shutting down, and have, they say, delayed for a month. iting their self-protection, and after the union is established, united action must follow.

The Invorporation to la* Kvvivvd, Xot Itnnovrd — The Him C'liih’8 Hurbecue—Personal. Special to Enquirer-Sun. Seale, Ala., August 9.—The types made me say, in my letter Saturday, that an effort was being made to remove the town incorporation. I wrote “revive.” The sterets and sidewalks are in wretched con dition, and are a disgrace to every citizen of the town. Sheriff' Bellamy has volun teered to perform the duties of marshal without charge, therefore it will cost but little to run the municipal government. The main object of reviving the incorpora tion is to get the streets worked. I trust this will he accomplished with little delay. The gun club barbecue the last of this month will be the biggest thing of the sea son. I learn that over $100 has already been subscribed. Four or five clubs will be invited. Miss Joe Williams is visiting her brother, Dr. C. L. Williams. Misses Berta and Fannie Henry have re turned from Hamilton. Miss Nellie Screws, of Ilurtsboro, is the guest of Mrs. W. A. Bellamy. I learn that Dr. I. P. Cheney will com mence a protracted meeting at the Baptist church next Sunday. CATAULA CAMP-MEETING. Impressions On One Who Attended the Ser\iee. Editor Enquirer-Sun : I will tell you about the Catania camp-meeting. Awak ening with tiie rising sun, we made haste to don our “Sunday dress,” which means to us girls lace, feathers, ribbons, etc. W e were soon in the open carriage on our way to the camp ground. The cool breeze, the dew-laden grass, the early birds ana our , spirited horses all combined to make our I ride a pleasant one. After riding ten or i twelve miles, we came to a deep, niuddy creek, which we dreaded to cross tor tear it would soil our pretty clothes. \\ e were told that our destination was about tour miles distant, so we plucked courage anu ventured in tiie ugly water—happily it only reached the huh—so we landed all safe on the other side, and then for four weary long miles we bounced over rocks, down gullies, up hills, until the grounds were reached. There we were kindly , taken care of by our good, jovial friend, Colonel Kimbough. . .. The camp ground is not pretty and tne Water was warm—too far from town to • procure Ice, But they have comfortable administration seems determined recognize the II ughes-Butler- Harman taction in the selection of men to till the federal offices in Colorado. Colonel Arkins of the News, may t ike some pleas- Augusta ure in attacking the president in his inter- ; go back views in eastern papers, but Mr. Cleveland 1 '" ' will not be bulldozed by the Patterson wing of the party, and continues to ignore them altogether. This Is lurther shown in withholding, up to the present, tiie com mission of Melter Stupelton. ANOTHER BLACK EYE. Thus another black eye has been given tiie Patterson-Arkins crowd, and recogni tion accorded the better elements of the party. Mr. Mott exnressed some pleasure when informed of the appointment, but was not altogether surprised, as it was gener ally thought he would be given tiie appoint ment. His application was filed at Wash ington last February. The new appointed register is a very pleasant gentleman, about 42 years of age. He was born in Columbus Gii., where he remained until about the time of the break ing out of the civil war, when Mr. Mott’s father, who was a strong Unionist sent him to Europe. He at once entered Heidelberg University, and at the early age of 22, he was graduated from the law department with the very highest honors. COMINO BACK TO AMERICA. Returning to America, Mr. Mott prac ticed law at his old home, Columbus, but on account of an affection of the eyes, he was obliged to give it up. In 1879, Mr. Mott arrived in Denver, where he has re sided since, and by strict and honorable at tention to his profession, he has won the esteem and good will of the public. Mr. Mott is a stanch democrat, and while not regarded as a politician, he has during the past been identified more or less with the campaign work of his party. It is believed that the appointment will be well received throughout the state. BECK ON THE SESSION. lie t'uin|il»iiis that ( 'milriss III,I Mothlii* to lie duce Taxation. Latest From the Mills. Augusta, Ga., August 9.—11 p. m,— There is no change in the cotton mills strike. To-morrow is the last day for the factory weavers to to work. If they do not all the mills here will shut down to-morrow after noon. The operatives say they are well supported by the Knights of Labor at large. Thousands of people will be de pendent. The strikers seem, generally, indifferent ns to the result. It is rumored hero that Grand Muster Powderly is ex pected to come. Augusta, Ga., August 10.—1 a. m.—The situation here is simply that the Augusta factory operatives refuse to go to work, and all the mills will shut down, thus throwing out of employment the oper atives of all the mills. About 4000 people will be thrown out of employment to morrow morning. It was rumored yester day two or three t imes that Grand Master Thos. V. Powderly, of the Knights of Lobor, was on his way to Augusta. An active canvass, however, failed to find him. Your reporter met two of the local executive committee and asked them about it. Neither knew of his presence, although they had heard that he was coining, ana might he here in a little while. Yesterday a dispatch was received here by the Knights of Labor executive board that the grand master was coming. The reference was made presumably to Mr. Powderly, but nothing more was heard of the matter and no meeting was called, as the dispatch suggested. Both rumors of Mr. Powderly’s coming were wired from South Carolina. He is a man of great power and breadth and it is to be hoped he may come. “Would you go back to work if Pow derly advised you to go?” was asked an Augusta factory worker yesterday. “He is not going to order us to do so ?” “But suppose he did ?” “I would go.” To-day the bells will ring, but unless the recalcitrant weavers at the Augusta fac tory go back to their places, the hands will leave the mills this evening not to return to-morrow. ket p everyth ing as quiet as possible around tlie mills, and the first money that is fur nished by the executive board will be de voted to sending ns many hands ns possible to the country to go to work there, or to any other place where they may get employment.

Out of sixty-seven collectors of internal revenue, sixty-four have been confirmed and these officers are among the most im portant, and are spread over a larger terri tory than almost any others.” When asked what he thought of the merits of President’s Cleveland’s appoint ments, the senator said : “They have been very good, I think. I know more about day morning next the mills would all shut down on that day. The notice was worded in different ways in different mills, but was plain and per emptory, and contained a square ultima tum from the proprietors to the laborers. It was a renewal of what had already been attempted some weeks ago. and was the first active evidence that the knights of capital had combined on the same plane with the Knights of Labor. This was the first notice to the opera tives and to the public generally that the Southern Manufacturers’ association had held a meeting and had adopted this plan. It at once became news, and all day long the internal revenue collectors than any there was wide enquiry as to the outcome others.
