A telegram was received yesterday bringing the sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Jack Simpson, nee Miss Ida Hood, daughter of Mr. M. D. Hood, of this city. She died Sunday night after a brief illness of typho-malarial fever. She had been married only a few in oaths, and her death i« indeed sad. She was a noble Christian woman, and had a host of iViends in this etty who will be saddened by the announcement of her death, and who will sincerely sympathize with the grief stricken husband and the father la their sad bereavement. 4 A Little Toe Previous. *^Tho Columbus Enquirer-Sun of the 12th says the ‘oouniy commissioners decided to offer a re ward off,50 for each of the criminals who escaped Jail on Sunday. It Is customary with them to offer |30 lor the capture of escapes, but they de cided to increase the amount in tliiB case.’ If that be so, there is a balance due policemen of Bulkula for the arreBt of Livingston the other wight.*'—Eufaula Mail. If the Mail will stop to consider a moment it will And that Livingston was arrested before the commissioners took this action. TlmDrvir* AU»'l lutt. The ‘‘DeViUs AtUtUotl” UcmipAny played to the largest audience of the season at Springer opera house last night. It is the finest spectacular show that visits Columbus, and always drills well. There is nothing to be said about the merits of the’pluy. The specialties, however, wore good, and the scenery was even better than it was when the company was here a yejir ago. The trans formation scene was grand, and excelled any thing yet seen upon our stage. The entertain ment is a good one of its kind, and coo.mends it self to the public. The audience last night •vinced its appreciation by frequent aud beany applause. I'atti Rosa. Patti Rosa will give “Zip” at Springer Opera House next Friday night. Tho St. Joseph Herald has the following to say of her : “That charming little soubrette, Patti Rosa, appeared at Tootle's last night in Lotta's familiar play of‘Zip,* before a good sized audience. While her methods differ somewhat from Lotta's, they are no less charming. Her youth, cornelinesj, charming dancing and singing, won the hearts of her audience at once, and generous and well merited applause was accorded her. Her support is unusually good. W. H. Murdoch, as the lover, is a splendid actor, a handsome fellow and a good dresser. Harry Warren, as ‘Philosophy Jack,* was immense. The other parts were fault lessly sustained.** r • Death in llrowneville. Mrs. Emma Bran, aged 27 years, died at her home on Collins street, iu Browneville, at 8 a. m. yesterday, after an illness of twelve weeks of consumption. She was the sister of Mr. Louis and Miss Sarah Hamilton. Her husband pre- c jded her to the grave about five years. She leaves one little girl 6 years old. She was a mem ber of the Bible Christian church and was a strictly pious and devoted Christian, and died in the full assurance of a bright and happy immor tality. No one had more friends iu the commu nity in which they lived than did she. No> e knew her but to love her. Her sister, Miss Sarah Hamilton, cannot be too highly commended for her untiring devotion to her us manifested by her faithful and constant watching and waiting at her bedside during her twelve weeks of suffering. A host of friends sympathize with her in this sore atfliction. The funeral will take place at the house at 9 a. m. to-day and her remains will be iuterred in the city cemetery. The Dig (mini. The Enquirer-Sun has had several brief refer ences to the canal which has been cut to drain the eastern purt of the city. The work has been in progress nearly two years and is now nearing completion. The canal extends from a point near Mr. Joseph Kyle’s residence to Bull Creek, a distance of two miles and a half. The work has been dono under the direction of the county com missioners and the street committee. The canal has a fall of 34 feet, and even more thau that could be given it if necessary. The im mensity of the work can be imag ined when it is said that 53,000 cubic yards of dirt has been removed. The canal runs through a marl bed the greater part of the way, and will not be subject to tilling up with sand as has bi en the trouble with ditches heretofore cut. Rumors of a Lively Fight for the Central Presidency. Ren. Alexander Believed to be a Candidate—I'n- UNiial Activity in the Stork—BoNsip About the Uoorgln Midland and the CoInmbiM and Florida. Tho air is still filled with rumors about a change in the management of the Central rail road of Georgia, but most of them seem to be made at random. Fiom the Savannah News of Sunday we get the folio ving: “Central stock went up to 106 yesterday, and a few shares were sold at 106jo, an advance of five points tVom where it started on Monday. About 1000 shares changed hands last week, nearly all of which went to Augusta. “The unusual activity and the considerable advance in price were accompanied by all sorts of rumors as to the projected deals, change of management, purchasing for control, etc., which many regard us simply inventions of the opera tors, in whose interest the prices are being ma nipulated. Others are inclined to think there is some foundation for the rumors, so persistent lias been tho buying, first in one direction and then in another. The stock is so closely held that a very large advance can easily be obtained for large blocks. “It is pretty well understood that Gen. Alexan der will make another fight for the presidency of the road at the election in January, and that the stock is being bought up largely by his friends. Gen. Alexander’s candidacy, it is stated, has been openly announced in Augusta, aud his friends there claim to control the Green stock. Some of Gen. Alexander’s friends here say, how ever, that he will not be a candidate. “A gentleman who is in a position to know something of the situation, says that while it is not impossible that such may be the case, yet he does not think that the Richmond and Danville or any other corporation has been buying up the stock Tor control,’ but that tjie advance is due to speculative influences. The statement is made and is based upon careful investigation that alto gether not over 10,000 shares of Central stock, out side of that owned by Mrs. Green, are held in New York. A prominent broker here said yes terday that he was offered the Green stock, with voting power reserved, on Friday, but at a price at which it was impossible to hand e\t. “There was very little stir in. the market yes terday,and less than one hundred shares changed hands, although there was a Dig demand. A week ago the stock, with voting privilege, sold from two to four points above stock without that privilege. Now there is no difference in the price. This fact upsets some theories as to the cause of the advance, and is looked upon as a pretty sure indication that the boom is the result of speculative buying. There are a good many, though, who are confident that other influences are at work, aud that a ‘fight for control* is going on, tho result of which will be known only whon the ballots are counted in January. ‘The latest rumor as to where the stock is going is that the Kansas City system, with which the Central is to connect at Birmingham, has been buying heavily, and sooner or later will control tlie .road. This is rumor of course given ! for what it is worth. The combination which ! controls this system has money without limit I and, besides ce tain Boston capitalists, comprises | such well known bonanza holders as Phil Ar- | mour, the great man of Chicago, and Mrs. Hettiq Green. “It ia also said that Gen. Alexander is really the man selected by this syndicate lor the presi dency, And thnt his popularity and th? money behind him will have fall weight in the election. The Ccutral is now building from Goodv/nter its Alabama termiuus, to Birmingham, where it will c nnect with the lines now being construct' ed by the Kansas City system from Birmingham to Memphis. At Memphis the line is solid to Kansas City, and the whole is controled by the strongest syndicate in tho country. The rumor that the Kansas City people are a‘.ter the Central is believed by no ono here, and Is looked upon as one of the many wild rumors that have in some way or other got afloat. There Is no doubt in the minds of those who are in a position to know what they are talking about, that Presi dent ltaoul will be re-elected.” Tlie Cleorgia MidimitL Mr O. Gunby Jordan returned fVoin New York Sunday night, where he has been on business i connected with the Georgia Midland Rai road Company, lie informs us that the roiling stock for the road is being rapidly completed. Two] passenger coaches have already been shipped j and will arrive here in a few days, when a sched- i ule will be arranged for running regular trains on the road. The track has reached Eilerslie. and is being laid as rapidly as possible. The company is having several pas^nger coaches built at Wilmington. Delaware, which, Mr. Jor dan says, will be the handsomest in the south when completed. The C'oIuiiiImim and Florida. Tho corps is going ahead without delay in mak ing the preliminary survey of the Columbus and Florida railroad. Mr. G. Gunby Jordan says that while iu New York several capitalists enquired of him about this prooosed road. He thinks there will be not the slightest difficulty about securing sufficient money to build the road, if the people along the line will give it the proper encourage ment. Personal. Dr. T. S.
