CC0BBIHNIBNKR9 OF COMMONS.
They Hold Their Monthly Meeting—0rants of
Land to the Georgia Midland and the Jewish
Rynagogae.
The board of commissioners of commons held
their monthly meeting yesterday afternoon in
the office of President Crawford.
Present, U. II. Crawford, presl dent, and a fill
board excepting Mr. Coleman.
The minutes of the last meeting were read and
approved.
The con
tion of J. H. Gabriel and others for lots for
church purposes, reported that said parties had
selected lots 7, 10, 11 and 14, or such port of it as
was north of the road le a* irg to Wynnton, on
block thirty-two, and that the committee re
commended that said lots be granted them.
Adoptf d. Ayes- Messrs. Crawford, Curtis, Estes,
Garrett, Illges, Kyle, Swift, Redd and Grimes.
Noes Mr. Peabody.
The committee to whom was referred the peti
tion of John F. Ogle tree for the lease of a portion
of the commons for a pasture and slaughter
house, recommended that it be not granted.
Adopted.
The same committee reported that they had
rented the lots occupied by T. S. Fontaine Sc Co.,
as a \foodyard to them for one year from Octo
ber 1, at same rental as paid last year, $18 per
month.
Mr. Grime# stated that Mr. Fontaine of said
firm thought that the rent wus too much and
had asked that it be reduced to $159 per annum.
On motion the sum was reduced to $12 50 per
month, from this date to October 1 next.
Mr. Grimes offerred ihc following resolution,
granting right of way across the commons for
side tracks to the Georgia Midland and Gulf
Railroad Company: *
“Whereas, the board of commons commis
sioners, on the j Jth day of May, 1886, granted as
a right of way to the Georgia Midland and Gulf
| Raitro id company so much land as was necessary
j fora track over and across what is known in the
i plan ond survey of commons of theefty of Colum-
i bus us blocks Nos. 43, 42, 10 and 39; and whereas,
it has been found since the location of the line of
| said railroad and the sites for the buildings and
! shops on the depot grounds of said road that ad*
j ditional tracks are necessary for a proper en-
! trance to and exit from said grounds; therefore be
i it
j “Resolved by this board, that a grant is herein
j and hereby made to the said The Georgia Mid
land and Gulf Railroad company in the commons
land hereinafter described for so much land as
may be necessary for aright of way for additional
tracks over, through and across the following,
to-wit: Lots Nos. one (1), three (3) and six (6), and
the southeast corner of number two (2), the west
half of number four (4), the northwest corner of
number five (5), the % oil’the west ond of number
sev n (7), the west half of number ten (lft), and
the northwest corner of number eleven (11)—all
in block 42 of the commons survey. Also lots
i numbers nine (9), twelve (12). thirteen (13), four-
j teen (14), fifteen (15), and sixteen (16). and the
east naif of number eight (8), east half of number

; fourth on the west side -all in block forty-three
i (43) of the commons survey,
j “This grant is made provided said roadre-
) liuquishes all right in block 39, heretofore made."
j Mr. Peabody moved to amend by adding:
i “In making this grant it is the opinion of the
hoard that, including the grants heretofore
j made, sufficient land lias been granted to the
Georgia Midland and Gulfrailrood.” Lost.
The original resolution was then adopted.

RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
Tim Home Courier Thinks It Sees tlm Mistake of
Columbus.
The Rome Courier bus the following reference
to the railroad situation:
“We have seldom seen so much buoyancy of
public spirit in Romo as has been occasioned by
the assurance that we are at ast to have the
long-hoped-for railroad to De atur, as well as an
extension of the Rome and Carrollton road to
the latter place. Everybody is convinced that
these improvements will impart new life and a
new growth to Rome, giving us cheaper through
routes, and greatly extending the trade of the
city. Not alone by tlieir di ect facilities, but by
connections and extensions which they are
ulmost sure to command, must Rome and this
section of the country be benefitted. Rome
will have closer connection than any other city
of the state can possibly obtain with good
navigation on the Tennessee river, and that
means with all the great western sysLein of riv
ers. We feel confident, too, that another acqui
sition will be a closer connection at Kingston
with either the Piedmont line at Gainesville or j
the Georgia railroad. The people of Columbus j
and LftGmnge, too, must see their great ml van- j
tage in meeting our Rome ond Car rolltop road I
at Carrollton. Columbus, apparently despairing !
of the original Columbus and Rome railroad ;
project, had .suffered her end of it to be diver'ed
to Greenville, llut she will now see that by a j
direct extension to Rome, a distance of probably j
not more th an 125 miles, she can secure a much j
shorter communication with the great west and j
its extensive navigation than by any otHer route.
She cannot afford to let the opportunity slip.
“The situation and its prospects certainly jus
tify the most sanguine expectations of our citi
zens.”
The l)rvll’s Auction.
The “Devil’s Auction” .Company will appear at
Springer opera house Monday night. The Bos
ton Globe has the following to say of them:
“W. J. Gilmore’s Immense Company presented
that famous spectacle,‘The Devil’s Auction,’at
the Howard last night before an audience that
literally packed this favorite place of amusement
to its very walls. Interwoven with gorgeous
scenic effudfs, marvellous transformation and
calcium effjcts, wore brilliai t ballets, songs, pan
tomimes, acrobatic feats anil statuesque per
formances. The number o 1 people required to
present these incidental attractions would
alone suffice to start several first-
class shows. The plot of the piece
facilitates the changes of the scenes without de
manding of the auditor any expenditure of men
tal force. Continual merriment or admiration is
elicited at every stage of the proceedings. There
is not a dull moment iu the whole piece, and
there are periods when the mirth is such as to
excite uncontrollable laughter. The stage cloth
ing throughout is simply magnificent. The ballet
varied and artistic; the acrobats never excelled
—the same may be sad of the jugglers—Sala-
monsky Brothers, contortionist and pautomime
duelist. The 'Devil’s Auction* will prove a big
cord here, as it should. The liberal extravagance
ofihe management should merit a continuation
of the houses that it opened to last evening.”
IIOTKk ARRIVAL*.
In# placed on the ground, and the erection of the j
building will begin in a few days. In a short]
time the ladies of the congregation will give a i
festival in conjunction with tho library entertain- I
■tent committee for the benefit of both iastitu* j
Mona, and no doubt it will be liberally patronized.

In Jail Aunin.
Bailiff* Owen returned from Muf.uila yesterday
with J. W. Livingston, the burglar who escaped
from jail here on Sunday. Livingston professed
u perfect willingness to return to jail, ami assert
ed that he bad nothing to do with the plot to
escape. He .said that he notified the jailer that a
conspiracy existed, but he did not feel bound to
enter into the details. Livingston is safe in jai!,
and it is hardly probable that he will escape
again.

The Opera Last Sight.
The Bijou Opera Company played “The Bridal
Trap’’ to a fair house last night,'and to say that
the audience was pleased would be a weak wav
to express it. When all the cast did so well, it
eccms almost unfair to be invidious by distinc
tion. But Mr. Ilerrnmn Waldo as the “Count,”
Arthur W. Tains as Grivolin and Harry F Dixie
ns Fowtelard, the steward, ore especially deserv
ing of commendation. Miss Clara Randall us
M .non was very good in song and dance both.
But above them all was the only and inimitable
Adelaide Randall. Such a voice as her’s can be
hoard, but never imagined or described;
ai d her dancing is simply the eloquence of pan
tomime. Such a voice and such a pair of dauc-
in* feet may have been heard and seen on our
stage before, but they belonged to two different
performers if they were Adelaide Randall alone
has both, and she is artist enough to make her
gifts a joy to others. Her voice is almost in
finite iu its sc«pe, and it retniuds one of amalga
mation of the music of a lute and a lyre. The
prime quality of Miss Adelaide Randall’s dancing
Is its grace, which is the prime quality of all
dsneing, but the next feature is her
quickness. Her dancing may well
be compared to that of the elder
Fannie Ellsler, the famous English dancer of
fifty years ago, of whom an old man, after gaz
ing at her, exclaimed “she’s as much quicker
than lightning as lightning is quicker than a
s one wall.”
At 2:30 p. m. to-day there will be a matinee, the
Mikado; and to-night the company will render
* Ihe Princess of Trebizonde.” This company
