There were two Judges at headquar ters, but there were hardly enough rases to keep one Judicial gentleman busy. Jr.dge Howard wa* waiting to try cases, when Judge Baxter showed up. Judy Howard was then and there like O'hello, ao far na court business was com eroed-his occupation was gone. "Call the defendants.” said Judge Baxter. Scrgt. Trommerhauser call ed. No answer. "Call another." said the Judge. The sergeant called again Rnd yet no defendant eame forth. It began to look as If thtre would be or. court. After a bit Nathan Brooks appeared. Hr hod hit his wife on the head. Two wltneses appeared against him. Nathan did not seem to take to them very well. He remarked to the Judge: “Dem 'omans la partners; don't belleb a word dey says agin me." Whst they snhl nnd also what Na than said eonvlctcd him. He was fined »10. Then court adjourned. ORDERED TO A BACK SEAT. A Soldier Out Riding Rumps Up Against a Farmer Conductor. There was an amusing Incident on the Hill ear line last night. A soldier, just returned from camp life, had occupied a seat In the front of the ear. A young lady was with hint. A conductor told the gentleman ho must occupy a rear seat. The gentle man thought he was In the conduc tor's way and graciously enough took the third seat In the car. The conduc tor spied him: 1 told you you must occupy one of the last two scats." The whole thing now dawned on the gentleman. "You must bo crazy!” lie ejaculated to the conductor as ha walked up and took the front seat of the car. Col. Dyer will have to Institute eye sight examinations on his line. Barbecue on Saturday at J. W. Jansen’s, 706 Ellis street, by Charles Herzog. Dinner at one o’clock.

We have had one cleaning day and It will never be for gotten by our well known city scaven ger. Mr. Monnlhan. He was put to it to collect up alt the garbage and had to put many extra carts to work. Ho does not want another in a hurry. However, the n«xt cleanlng day will not be so bad on him. People hava cleaned up their premises since the first cleaning day. so that the Job of collecting garbage will not be as great the next time. Say, Civic League, when la the next day for taking up the trash? Oliver Row. Oliver Row consists of a row of very up to date tenement dwellings built by Mr. Jacob Übtnlxy. on Monument street. They are built on the style of flats and are the only ones of the kind in Augusta. The buildings have only lately been finish ed, but long before they were comple ted tenants for each house had been secured. Two of the six dwellings are now oc cupied. Judge Baxter and family are in one, and Col. J. Jones Gardener has moved In to another. Others will lo cate shortly in Oliver Row. Turning Day. The Georgia rail road has a certain day that they teim “turning day." No other railroad has such a day, so far as can be learned. It is the day on which all passenger oars in the yards here are shifted around the Y and thus get what was their right side their left side. This is done so that one side of the coaches will not be continuously exposed to the sun while standing In the yards. If these cars were turned around on a turn table every time they arrived here such a thing as turning day would not be in vogue, but ibere Is no turntable, and so the oars are taken around the Y. and so get turned around. It Is a unique idea, peculiar only to the Geor gia. Funeral of Mrs. O’Donohoe.
