Was It aa Earthquakef Several ladies residing on lower First avenue assert that they felt a slight earthquake shock yesterday afternoon between 1 and 2 o’clock. If a shock occurcd but few knew it and ao excitement occurred. In a New Dress. The Montgomery Advertiser came to us yester day in a bran new dress, which fits it perfectly and makes a fascinating maiden of the hereto fore staid old maid. The improvement is ro- markable, and we are glad to sec our neighbor keeping up with the progress of the age. THE PUBLIC MII It A It Y. Marriage. Mr. Jas. H. Roberts and Miss Hestella Hutton were mnrried in this city Thursday night. Rev. J. W. Howard, pastor of the Second Baptist church, performed the ceremony.

Sudden Death of Miss Naney Johnson. Miss Nancy Johnson, an operator in the Eagle and Phenix tf ills, died suddenly on Thursday night at her siflter’s residence in Girard. Hho had worked all day on Thursday and had gone home and was sitting by the window, apparently resting, when she dropped dead. Hho had not complained of being sick and the doctors thought the cause of her death was heart disease. Her remains were buried yesterday in the Girard cemetery. Changing Their Homes. A good many people changed their homes in Columbus yesterday, but the number was not ns large as usual. We would be glad to publish a list of the removals to-morrow, but cannot do so unless t hose who changed their place of residence will tarnish the information to the office to-day. It will he interesting Sunday rending matter for those who would like to know where their friends are located for another year. Not let Nettled. Captain Dabney, chief engineer of the Colum bus and Western railroad, received a telegram from President Raoul yesterday, in which he •aid he would not be able to decide upon the route of the Birmingham extension before next week. There is no doubt about the extension of the road. The only question is in regard to which route shall be selected, the longer at a less cost or the shorter at the greater cost. The selection of the route haR been left entirely with Captain Raoul by the directors. Death of Mr. J. S. Rnpor. Mr. J. 8. Boper died in his room over Munday A Robinson’s stables yesterday morning about 1:30 o'clock. While he had been badly afflicted several years, his death was rather sudden. Mr. Roper was for a number of years a faith fid mem ber of the police force and did his duty well. He was about 50 years of age and leaves one son, Peyton Roper. Ho was a quiet and unostenta tious citizen and had a number of friends, who will he grieved by the announcement of his death. His funeral took place yesterday after noon and the remains were iuterred in the city cemetery. A Thief Picked Up. Charlie King, colored, 1ms been a porter at A. A. Dreyspool’s clothing store for nearly two years* and his wages have not been all for which he worked. Yesterday he was arrested by police- I men Morris and Burma for stealing a pair of punts from his employer. The pants were stolen three or four day.4 ago, and left at Frank Wal lace’s shop. Wallace notified tlie police of the fact that King had left the bundle there, and that he hud frequently left bundles there before. The police took the pants to Mr. Dreyspool and he readily identified them as belonging to his stock. When King was first arrested he denied any knowledge of the* theft, but after vnrd he virtually confessed his guilt. He is being held for trial, Personal. Miss Annie Feo has returned from a visit to friends at Jeffersonville. Col. W. 8. Wallace, of Butler, is in the city. Mrs. Dr. Kimbrough returned from Tulbotton yesterday. Rev. W. M.

Woodruff 1 , who has been spending the summer at Eufaula, returned to the city last night. Rev. R. II. Harris and fluidly returned from Stinson yesterday. Threatening a Telephone Exchange. The Selma correspondent of the Montgomery Advertiser writes that paper as follows: “A resolution condemning and threatening a boycott of the telephone exchange here was to-day circulated by its subscribers as such for their individual signatures, to which has been already signed a number of names. The sub scribers say that while they consider the tele phone almost a necessity, and while they in no wise make complaint of the ever accommodat ing, prompt and estimable young lady who so kindly and patiently answers their calls from day to day, yet because of the present imperfec tions of the system they have been forced to such resolutions as were circulated to-day, and which they assert they will most positively maintain unless the system works satisfactorily to all con cerned within the next thirty days. ” LOCAL LACONICS. —The city court will meet next Monday. —Doris* circus agents have been bi'liug the city. —Judge Wilkins will hold his monthly court for the lower town district to-day. —The county commissioners will hold their monthly court to-day. —The steamer Milton II.

He has bought the Dou- nelly residence on First avenue and moved to it. —President Proudfit, of the Southern Base Ball League, has called a meetiug of the league at Nashville next Thursday. This meeting will do a The Hoard of Directors Hold Their. Regular Monthly Meeting. The board of directors of the Library Asssocia- tion held its regular monthly meeting at the library rooms last night. The librarian reported un addition of 107 new members, with a total membership of 469. The outlook is much more encouraging than it was a short time hack, and shows what united effort can do, especially when the ladios take hold with that zeal and tact which always characterize their efforts in a good cause. The board heartily commended the efforts which the ladies had made in getting new members and the assistance which they had rendered the association. The board accepted two propositions for musical entertainments during the fall months, and directed the entertainment committee to assist their progress by formal acceptance. These entertainments will tarnish opportunity for de- lighttal and refreshing occasions, besides render ing material aid to one of the valuable institu tions of our city. Tae directors discussed the question of lights, and will probably adopt the use of kerosene as affording a steadier flame than gas and as being more economical. The Mules and the Flour. Yesterday four colored men and a colored woman drove into the city from some plantation in a two-mule wagon. Near Broad and Eleventh streets they struck camp, unhitching the mules, hut leaving the harness on them. The mules grazed about the wagon while the four men and the woman pulled an old stocking tad of silver dollars out of a tattered valise in the wagon, and went shopping in a grocery store on the west side of Broad street. After remaining in the store awhile, they came out Indian file, bringing with them two large sacks of flour which they placed in the wagon; Then two of the men went one way and the other two men and the woman went the other. When the two parties had gone thirty yards apart the woman, who wore a red bandanna and hrogan shoes, yelled hack at the two receding men. “Oh! Brer Isom, you an’ Unker John, we gwine down to Hir Francis .Tone* house da eat dinner wid uni; we mck promus to um two week back wen he bir. in de country for eat dinner wid um to-day. Now we gwi down. We meet you bock to de wagin at 2 o’clock, Gaud speer me, I cum sho.” The two men replied, “So long sistah,” and each crowd went its own way. Soon after the darkeys left, one of the mules, a big trace-rubbed brindle fellow, pot to nosing infthe wagon hody He struck a bonanza, or rather the flour. Each mule tackled a sack, and in fifteen minutes they had licked up the last grain of flour from the bot tom of the wogon. After they had finished their meal, or rather their flour, the mules just loafed around and looked innocent. At 2 o’clock the woman ami the two men returned. The woman looked in the wagon ami said : “Bless grashus! Bless Peter, de flour done stole an’ gone. Enty I been know dese town nigger ain’t fur trss. Heah I am, an’ you do wuek een de sun and rain fur monev ter buy flour and town nigger tief um an’ gone. Oh! law, he too had de nigger do tief da flour, I hope da fust moufful choke um clean to doth, a good tar nutten low down tiefin’ trash.” The two men jumped into the wagon body and looked under the baskets and quilts carefully for the flour, but without avail. Ono of them said: “Yar, da flour done gone, Lindy ain’t liab no pie cruss fur Sunday, an’ de pickininny ain’t gwi git he flour dumplin’ dis week fur sho. Man, ef I ketch de nigger wot took um I hreck ebry bone een he body, a good tar nutten, hongry, lazy, low-down trashy tief.” Then the other two men came up and the whole five began talking like a flock of clucking blackbirds. The excite ment was intense. When you steal flour from a darkey you raise his dander. He loves it. Finally the woman Rpied the white powdery lips of the mules, and exclaimed: “Bless my dyin’ soul ef de mule ain’t done gone eat four dollah wuff o’ flour. Look at he lip all white up wid flour. I good min’ ter teck suinp’n andbreck yo’ back you good fur nutten ting you.” The five darkeys then greased up and left—all five still firing off their mouths about, the rob bery. A man who passed the crowd a mile from town said they had the mules in u gallop, and as they passed him the driver said : “You eat flour like trotten boss; you kin trabel like trotten boss! Go on you nasty tievin brutes,” and still he plied the whip. The mules luul got the best of the day’s excursion. Odds and Ends. If “economy is wealth” then wealth ought to abound muchly in all this region, for there has been u vast amount of enforced economy. The reason John gave to his wife for spending so much time at the bull game was that he wanted to have some sort of standing in the busi ness world. If a fashionable young lady should appear on Broad street with her hair combed her friends would begin to think her absent-minded. A Boston man says he has never seeu the Hun garian conjurer perform his feat of spreading a newspaper upon the floor and having a young woman to sit down upon it, whom he covers with a piece of silk and then causes to disappear, but he has known $50,000 to disappear before it could be covered with anything. Fleas will bite and wasps will sting, Spiders will webb and sketers will sing; Dogs in the house and cats on the rug, But the meanest of things is the hungry bedbug. A drunken man, who said the ground flew up and struck him in the face, was the only man who felt the Wiggins earthquake. A negro woman in Birmingham in great dis tress made complaint to the city officials and wanted them to arrest two negro worneu for having kissed her husband. The Birmingham Age tells its readers that the bandage which oue of the citizens of that town wears on his eye is not the result of a pugilistic encounter Are her citizens so progressive and aggressive that a bandage on the eye is prima facie evidence that they have been indulging in a fisticuff? A uegro has been arrested in Atlanta Mipposed to be Joe Wright, who committed the Saturday night murder at the brick yard in Birmingham. HOTEL ARRIVALS. * RANKIN HorSK. J. M. Gault, W. A.

Last Saturday Mr, Henry Sass, 29 Western avenue, received $5,000 for one- fifth of ticket No. 77,227, which drew the second capital prize of $25,000 in Tlie Louisiana State Lottery, on July 13. He is a member of the Church (Rev. A. B. Weber pastor), and will loan at a low rate this $5,000 to the new church, which but for this aid would remain unfinished for lack of funds. He is a tailor, 70 years old—in this country twenty years—has supported a large family—is very popular where he lives, and the people there rejoice with him in his good fortune. —Toledo (Ohio) Blade, July 27.
