COLUMBUS GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 19, DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN 188 5. SPRAY FROM UNION SPRINGS. Thi' Circuit Court In NomIou—TIiy First Hair , Now Cotton—Other Mutters of Interest Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Union Springs, Ala., August 18—. spent .yesterday in this pleasant little eir shaking hands with old friends and pu‘ tially living over other days. Court is i. session, and there are quite a number iron the surrounding country in attendance! Judge John’ JVI. Chilton is presiding, aiu seems to be giving general satisfaction Most ot the cases being tried are forger, petty larceny and assault and battery, etc and generally confined to the colored rau. They seem to accept sentence to the chain gang, coal mines or penitentiary for thesi offenses as it it were a legitimate heritac from the republican party in lieu of tin promised forty acres and a mule. The Southern Hides have gone intu camp. Detachments from Montgomery. Troy and Eufaula are coming in tojon. them. Uraud times are expected the la-, of the week, sham battles, etc. The Mex lean troubles will soon come to a propel adjustment as soon as Mexico learns of tin preparations being made. The company is well officered with veterans of the lau war. The boom of the cunnon this after noon astonished the natives and showeu business. The first bale of new cotton was sold at auction this afternoon by Marshal Ruborn at 10 cents per pound, bought by Ellis & Jinks, a new firm. All the news I have received from Co- lumbus has been through the columns u, ^ P a P. er > except perhaps just a little that came in a communicotion ad dressed to a friend of mine. I don’t know that I should say even this much, as ’twas strictly private. I expect to leave here to day, and shall be home again, I trust, in a very few days. The health of the people is excellent. Crop reports are rather unfavorable. I stepped into a hotel to get some ice water; saw what I took to be a lump of ice in the bucket, knocked it around with the dipper, took up some water, tried it; stirred again, tried again, and wasn’t very certain That it will not be something to imitate in glass ball, for instance. Not knowing the proprietor I said nothing, but walked out on the street to inquire the price of iee. Two conts per pound, and to my aston ishment found they were purchasing it in Amerieus. Had not the Columbus factory- better look into the matter? TALK FROM TALBOT. 1 HIb Picnic at tent reel lie—Herndon nfllic Four Hi liciirqlii Regiment--The ( roils, Etc. Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Talbot County, Ga., August 16.—The weather is extremely warm and dry in many sections of this county. Cotton, peas, sugar cano and potatoes have already been seriously cut off by reason of the drought, and unless it rains soon the dam age will be great. Our farmers are taking advantage of the dry weather in saving the beet fodder in many years. Last Saturday we had the pleasure of attending a picnic at Centreville academy in this county. It was one of those gatherings where all classes come together with the sole object of one day of unalloyed pleasure. One of the largest crowds we have seen in a long time met upon this occasion and passed the time in the forenoon in social intercourse and handshaking, each one vieing to excel iD hearty congratulations and good will to all. Candidates for the various county offices were there in full force, importuning the dear people not to iorget them on the day of “ballot sling ing.” Mumford, the heavy-weight of the Hew Era, and Baldwin, the light-weight of the Enquirer-Sun, were smiling and shaking hands in the interest of the press. At 12 o’clock dinner was announced, and on repairing to a shady dell near by there we beheld a table stretched to an im mense length and loaded with home-raised boiled ham, roast beef, mutton, pork and kid, two-story chicken pies and flanked on All sides by pound cake, sponge cake, jelly cake, fruit cake, with such condiments as pure ice water an(#’ ice cold lemonade. We were escorted near by to our friends Mumford and R. H. Turner, and after re peated charges upon the many good things for the inner man we were forced to retire, leaving our friends masters of the situation. As has been announced through the papers, the Fourth Georgia regiment of the confederate army will meet at Talbot- ton on Wednesday, the 25th instant, in their annual reunion. Much interest is manifested by the resident members of this old regiment, that are scattered in various parts of the county, and every arrange ment that will add interest to the occasion will be made to insure a good time to those who come from a distance to meet their old comrades in arms, and to talk of the many hair-breadth escapes, and deeds of valor that were won upon the tented field in the days that tried men’s souls. A LETTER FROM DELTA. -4 Good Woman (lone—Agricultural and Society , Items—The Candidates. Delta, Macon County, Ga., August 16.— On Monday night last, Mrs. J. W. Harp Quietly and peacefully breathed her last at the residence of her brother-in-law, Mr. W. D. Harp. She had been confined to her bed about three months. Every want and wish of hers was gratified by those loved ones who surrounded her. Her phy sician’s skill was exhausted in the attempt to stray the fever which wasted her form away—for “He who doeth all hings well” had decreed that she should join the throng of loved ones gone before, and for the execution of this decree, angels played upon the zephyrs around, awaiting the time ready to transport her gentle spirit to the mystic shores of the eternal beyond. This dispensation of Providence is ren dered doubly painful when we remember the little girls deprived of the watchful . care and gentle influence of mother. May “He who tempers the wind to the shorn lamb” be to these little ones, a mother through all the storms and wintry blasts of life. Dr. McCleneluin and wife were unex pectedly called from here to their home in Texas a few days since to attend a sick child. Mrs. McC. is a sister of our fellow- townsman, Jlr. II. Clay Corbin. Mrs. E. JI. Johnson and children, to gether with Miss Della Johnson, all ot Columbus, are in the neighborhood visit ing the family of their uncle, Mr. W 1 • L. Ogburn. No doubt Mrs. Johnson s visit will be pleasant, visiting the hopie of Mr. Johnson’s childhood. Mrs. S. A. Carson will spend some time near Delta. Mrs. Carson is the wife of your new solicitor general, Albert A. Car- son, who also was raised here. He lived here until he commenced the practice ot law. Delta is proud of and rejoices at the success of her distinguished son. Miss Auna Ogburn has just returned from an extended visit to Crawford county among friends and relatives. , Miss Emmie Hicks, who has been visit ing in Butler for the past two weeks, lias returned, accompanied by Miss Florence Hines, who will spend some time with her and other young lady friends in the neigh borhood. Messrs. Harp & Harp have a bale of new cotton ready for the gin. This is the first bale of the season from this section. Messrs. Harp are young, energetic, pro gressive farmers, and are always among the first with their farm products in the market. _ , . „ The fodder crop has been gathered in a nice condition—no rains to damage it.

The extraordinary expenses cmi easily be computed. The court summoned eleven hundred men for jurv service who were paid |2 per day for their attendance, and who drew an average of .£1.50 each! This bill is #-1750. Tim jurv fees will amount to a total of #1160. The hotel bili for the jurors will be about #1200. Bailiiis in attendance upon the jury during the sixty davs of the trial have in- eurred an additional board bill of ;350. Six of the prisoners have been confined in the county jail since Mav i) at a cost oi thirty cents per day, and Par sons has boarded there since June 21. This expense is #211 to Friday. Whether the jury convicts or disagrees, this item will be still lurther increased. The cost ofem- ploying a special baliff to summon the talesmen is about #100. A draughtsman was employed for over a mouth in making surveys and drawing the plans used in the trial at an expense of #150. Two inter preters have cost nbout #150, and since the testimony began the stnte has employed an extra stenographer at, #10 a dav and has been to a daily expense of #20 in tele graphing, the boarding of witnesses and other small items. This adds at least #1,000 to the bill. Mr. George Ingham has been employed to assist the state at a cost of #2500. His compensation is said to be #50 a day. The expense for witnesses has been small. Only those who come from outside the county receive fees, anil they have been few iii number. The fees and transportation of witnesses and the extra expenses incurred by Captain Schaack and bis detectives for car fare, boarding, witnesses, and giving small sums to Waller, Seliger and other in formers, will be covered by #500. Mr. Furthman and several detectives have in curred expense bills in trips to Omaha, Grand Rapids and other towns amounting to about #150. These items cover pretty nearly all the especial expenses of the trial, and tlieir total is #13,020. Judge Gary’s salary is #3500 pa- year, or #583 during the two months of the trial. States Attorney Grinnell and three assist ants have been busy for about three months, and during that time their com bined salaries amount to #3225. Stenogra pher Purcell during the same time drew #450. The salaries of two clerks of the court must be included. The court record writer will be occupied three months at a salary of #450, and the court clerk two months at #220. About eighteen bailiffs have been assign ed to duty on the case to watch the pris oners and the jurors, and to guard the court room doors. They receive #1200 per year, and have been on duty In this case two months. Their bill is #3600. There is, moreover, a chief bailiff at #1500 per year, and two watchmen at #1000 a year. Their wages for two months is #583. For over three months Captain Schaack and some twenty detectives have given most of their time and attention to this case. It is impossible accurately to esti mate the proportion of their salaries chargeable to the trial expense, but it is safe to say that this item ought to add *2000 to the account. Their total salaries for three months would be #6450. For a month six policemen have been assigned to duty at the criminal court building, and their pay for that time is #500. These are about all the regular expenses, not in cluding the cost of caring lor the court room and cleaning and lighting it. This, however, is trivial. These regular items amount to #11,700. Added to the especial expense, and allowing for numerous small items, which cannot be got at just now, the total cost of the trial up to August ap pears to be about $25,000. Some of the ofllcials think the account will reach #30,- 000. DR. WAMBOLDT S CASE. IIP Ifi'xlitnitiliin Hi'niitl) iVllilm'il the First ltii|itiat Church 1o lie CoiiNlilcrcO To-Maht. Chattanooga, Tenn., Aaugust 18.—A meeting of the members of the First Bap tist church will be held to-night for the purpose of acting upon the resignation 6i Rev. Dr. Wamboldt, tendered two weeks ago. As is pel-imps well known Dr. Warn- joldt’s resignation is not offered because of a desire on his part to leave his pres ent pastorate, but in order that the will if his charge muy thUb be fully expresses regarding him, iii the light of recent pub lications reflecting upon iiis character. In j tendering his resignation he stated j .his much, and further that i he had no desire by this means | to shirk investigation, or sneak out before i the fire of his accusers, lie maintains his innocence, and declares Iii-. purpose to : prove to tno satisfaction of all lair-minded "ineu the groundlessness and malignity of these charges. It is understood tlnd Dr. , iVambolot will make a statement to-night | before hit, church touching these matters, 1 ami explaining fully the "divorce matter, 1 which is apparently the only authenticated charge. He. it seems, states now and mis j always stated that his first wJfe was alive when he again married, but that a legs! i divorce hud been obtained, which did not I at all criminate or reflect upon him. I He is a man of brilliant parts, most un- | douhtcdly. and Unit “evil report’' should clog Ills progress in his chosen piofession, for which his talent is so decided, is a mat- j ler orgreat regret. However, many letters I have been received from nil over the land, wherever be has served, lull of praise ol him and claiming that he is the victim ol cruel circumstances and the unrelenting hounding of unscrupulous enmity. If Biich be the cose, it is earnestly to be hoped that he will be able so to show, and thus vindicate his own reputation and re lieve tlie Christian ministry of any stain. Whatever action the church may take to-night in the matter will be fully re ported in the Times. Interviews were held yesterday with several leading members of the church, and the sentiment prevailed tliut the reverend gentleman will be sus tained by a majority, at least, of liis con gregation, and that he will be asked to withdraw his resignation. The Maxima I’nrilimtiiB I’liner. Washington, August 18.—The suppo sition that the delay in action upon the Cutting ease is to give President Diaz time to exercise the pardoning power as the only means by which the federal authority can' be exerted is ridiculed by a gcutiemau resident in Washington who is familiar with the Mexican law. His explanation of the situation is interesting and seems to justify his view. “The authorities of Chi huahua,” said he, “claim Cutting has been regularly tried, convicted and sentenced to prison at hard labor for one year. Under the constitution of Mexico he must serve at least two-fifths of his sentence before President Diaz can legally pardon him. Two-fifths of one year is 146 days. He was sentenced August 7th and he must remain in prison until Janu ary 1st, 1887. The Mexican federal consti tution does not invest the president with discretionary pardoning power. On the contrary, it restricts him by providing that a pardon can only be granted in accord ance with the law bearing upon the case. This is to be found in section 287 of the penal code of the federal district of Mexico, which provides first, that a prisoner shall have served two-fifths of his sentence, and that during the term of his imprisonment he shall have preserved a good conduct be. fore the president can legally pardon him CELESTIAL SPORT.

Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Dadeville, Ala., August 18.—Still im- provements are going on. The painter’s brush is now beautifying tlie Masonic building, and when completed it will be one of the most magnificent structures in our little city. Steps are being taken. I learn, to paint both tlie Methodist and Baptist churches. They both greatly nc-ed it. Our people are expecting great benefits from the Goodwater railroad extension, and our little city will put on a much bet ter appearance ere am it her year passes by. Hot. hot, dry, dry, but a very fine pros pect for rain how; in fact, some portions of the county have received light showers this week. In this immediate locality we are greatly in need of rain. Farmers are beginning to lay aside that cheerful look, and are becoming somewhat despondent. Our section, as usual, has been compara tively healthy; but few deaths, and they principally children. Mr. H. Sternberg and estimable lady- leave us this morning to make your city their future home. We are very sorry to give them up. but cannot help ourselves, aud congratulate Columbus on receix'ing such valuable accessions. A West India Hurricane. Washington, August 18.—The signal office reports that a West India hurricane has passed south of Key West into the gulf of Mexico, causing! high winds in southern Florida. It will probably cause gales on the coast of the eastern gulf states to-night. The Chicago Anarchist*. Chicago, August IS.—In the court to-dav for the trial of the anarchists Major Black completed his argument for the defense, and was followed by State’s Attorney Grin- nell, and as usual the court room was densely packed. Grinnell will conclude his argument to-morrow. Chicago, August 18.—Chinese sporting circles have been greatly exercised over the outcome of a cockroach tournament which has been going on in the basement of a downtown laundry and at a Chinese club house for the last three nights. It is the first tournament ever held east of the Pacific coast. It has been engineered and conducted by a party of Chinese sports, which left SanFrancisco three weeks ago, with nearly fifty trained cockroaches. Last night it was reported that the San Francisco party had left for New York, having won several thousand dollars from the local Chinese betting men. The San Francisco Chinamen who came here were informed before they started that there were a large number of their countrymen who would enjoy and liberally patronize a tourna ment. In Chinatown, at San Francisco, an old Chinaman has long conducted a Chinese shoe shop, and in odd hours main tained a large number of fighting cock roaches. He was ordered to prepare fifty of his ablest fighters, which he at once did, delivering them in a wicker basket made especially for the purpose. In this basket were nearly a hundred cells, in which each ronoh was kept separate from his com panions. The C‘*lestial sports arrived here with their animals without mishap last Monday. Iu two hours it was known to every Chinaman in this city that the tournament would begin Wednesday night. About 11 o'clock the tournament was opened, a featherweight tighter being matched against a middleweight cock roach. Before the insects were pitted against each other they were handled by Quong, a Chinaman who had some ex perience in this line in China. With a minute pair of scissors he clipped their wings, and then, just before facing them, greased their bodies with salve. This is done to prevent the insects catching one another, as they will not touch the greased portions of each other’s bodies. At a sig nal two champions were dropped into the pit. This was a large urn, shaped liki^ a punch bowl and greased on the edges. The first fight was one of the bust of the whole tournament. No sooner were the two fighting roaches dropped into the bowl than they sprang at each other with the fierceness of Dull dogs breasting. Just eleven minutes after the tight began the big roach was dead. When he died, how ever, lie mortally wounded his slayer. In tlie last struggle, and despite the pain caused by the effort, he turned in such a manner that his left foreleg was pulled from its socket, but in so doing lie caught his adversary by the tiiroat. Tic next instant he died,covered with wounds, while the liitie victor staggered off with a terrible out in his throat. Light battles were fought the first night, it being 2 o’clock before the last battle was finished. 'J'lc betting was hea y and many of the local men were winners. The next night only four battles were got through with, but they were all desperate contests, and lasted an hour each. On the third night there were eleven battles, aud when the tournament concluded the San Francisco Chinamen had nearly all the money of the local sports. It was reported last evening that the Chinaman Quong, who handled the light ing roaches, had played into tiie hands of the visitors, and drugged some of the bugs. The Power ofSong. A minister named M. C., who has since- passed into “inocuous desuetude” by fall ing from grace, had a circuit in southern Indiana. The horse he rode was a spirited animal and would not let a blacksmith shoe him. The preacher was a great re vivalist and singer of revival songs—noted for his “power of song,” in fact. A smith in the county scat, the center of the circuit, learning that the preacher’s horse would not be shad, meeting the divine one day, said: “If you’ll bring that horse to my shop to-morrow and follow my in structions I’ll shoe him all round, and it won't cost you a cent.” Accordingly the preacher was on time at the smith s shop with his refractory steed, and after the animal had been divested ol saddle, blankets, and all but the bridle, the smith said: “Now, hold your horse by the reins, close to the bridle-bit, and sing one Or your liveliest o, imp meeting songs, and uid when that is ended strike up another, and keep on singing until 1 finish shoeing the horse.” The preacher obeyed, and to the astonishment of all, the animal win passive until the work was completed. A - the blacksmith clinched the Inst nail In dropped the atiiulul's font, exclaiming: “There, I knew you could sing religion into that horse.”—New Orleans 1'lcayunc SUMMER CARE OF BABIES. Him (r I’risoru' Their llcnltli During the llrt Wrath r. Babies often suffer intolerably in the hot months, either from too much or too little clothing. Wo remember one dear baby \\ e ; >nce saw clothed in a double woollen dress ing gown and with woollen socks on It is feet a hot July day. The drops of perspi ration stood thickly over his little head, and what wonder that he cried from slits r discomfort? The little feet needed no covering, and tlie woollen wrap should have been replaced by a tDin cotton or linen garment during the warm portion of the day, the dressing gown being at hand ,i) slip oil as soon us the air grew io>! it night. Underclothing pinned tightly about us in warm weather would be insuf ferable. Why should we suppose it is any easier tor baby to endure it? Physi cians are advising giving babies cold water at least once an hour, or rather offering it for tlieir acceptance. A bit of Ice pi cked from a lump with a pin may be put on baby's hot gums with good results, and best perhaps of all when the little crea tures grow peevish and fussy, when they are a burden to themselves and everybody else, is the plan adopted by wise mothers, big sisters, and aunties, of partially un dressing the little body, Wiping away Un bent and dust with a soft, cool sponge or cloth in a cool, shaded room, and with pleasant, cheerful talk soothing away the “tired” and coaxing the pilgrim to take a na]> by the way. “Come now. you’ve got to have a nap,” xvill rouse rebellion in almost any baby soul, but to be inducted into something nice before one knows it all! bow we big folks enjoy it; and why shouldn't Uic baby? There is another than the hot side of the baby question, however. It is the taking cola. Cribs are left in draughts; baby is left asleep in a room where windows are open; the wind changes and nobody re members the helpless tittle victim of our caprices and thoughtlessness. There is a case on record where a baby was forgotten and left out on a piazza through a heavy thunderstorm, but there are lew house's where that could happen, lumpily. There arc homes, however, where the baby really suffers from lack of clothing. The infant mortality in a mountain town, where there was always a chill in the air night anil morning, was something frightful. Long- sleeved dresses (which most babies now wear), with the feet and bowels kept warm, might have saved some of these precious lives. The babies’ illness took the form of bowel trouble, sometimes the result of a summer cold. There is nothing, everybody knows, that will relieve a stomach or bowel pain like a hot applica tion. Indeed, some people who have a tendency to such conmlaints are seldom without their flannel bandage, and in ense of any disturbance of the organs men tioned know that the flannel hag with smartweed and tansy quiltt d into its folds will act ns a charm. Some physicians say • everybody should wear flannel next to the skin the year round. Others say flannel should never touch the skin. The truth will bo found to lie between the two extremes. Wear flannel when It is needed, leave it off when It does harm. To be well, however, a person must he warm. If not wnrmna turally there is probably something wrong in the person’s system, but until a natural circulation and warmth can be secured artificial means must be used. Of one thing be sure, babies’ feet, arms and bowels must be taken cure of, and the care of the outer part of the stomach is quite as important us attention to the inner wants, In conclusion let us say no garment worn during the day should he worn at night hy old or young. Cleanliness, if not splendoi, iB possible to all and is necessary to health. —Boston Budget. MARK ETN 1»Y TF. I.EUKAI'H. Flnnueinl.
