MISS HONNIE MEYER
For three nights,commencing with Thurs

Miss Bonnie Meyer, supported by J. H.
Thorne, and her own company of carefullv
selected artists. Tiie papers speak in the

ing too long to reproduce in our columns

•James P. Harrison.—The Timber-Cut
ter’s Gazette of Darien, is publishing some
admirable sketches of leading newspaper
men of Georgia. Mr. Grubb began with
a sketcli of Col. ,T. H. Estill of the Savan
nah News, and followed with a sketch of
Hon. Patrick Walsh of the Chronicle A
Constitutionalist. The third number is an
excellent and correct sketch of Mr. James
P. Harrison, publisher of the Christian In
dex and business manager of the Franklin
Printing Houseof Atlanta. We have known
Mr. Harrison from his childhood and en
dorse all tiie writer says of his generosity
of disposition, energy of character and
sterling integrity; and what is said of him
applies with equal force and truth to all
Ids brothers. Indeed, wo believe J. P. took
his older brothers’ as models of a high
sense of honor, and the influence of moth
er and sisters had much to do with makiDg
all tiie boys models or exalted manhood. It
is a noble family.
The sketch of Mr. Harrison, which we
publish elsewhere, will be read with inter
est by the people of Milledgeville. where
lie was reared. He is a Milledgeville boy
of whom she may well ho proud. Ho is
now in the midst of his usefulness, and, if
his iiro is spared he will greatly add to and
extend it.
A good many of our subscribers, with a
kind appreciation of our efforts to estab
lish the cash-in-advance system, have re
sponded cordially to our call of last week.
Wo thank them, and assure them we shall
labor still more earnestly to prove our
selves worthy of their confidence. We
struck off about] one hundred names last
week, and hope to get through with the
unpleasant job this week. We mean no re
flection upon any man by striking off his
name, wo simply mean wo can’t afford to
send the paper without the money. Nor
do wo mean to relieve any tuan from his
obligation to pay us what lie owes us. We
intend to collect, oi know the reason why;
but at the same time we are disposed to be
accommodating, as we always have been,
and will not refuse advance subscriptions
from those who owe us. Come and soe us
with two dollars. That’s the easiest, the
iiest the onlv right way. We trust no one
will "bo offended, but ail will mako speedy
arrangements to take their county paper,
and give us a hearty support iu our efforts
to build up our city and promote the best
interests of our county. Let us be friends!

THE UNBLUSHING “BLONDES.”
Fannie May’s Blondo Female Minstrels
paid an unannounced and unexpected visit
to our city, and gave a lame entertainment
at Brake’s Opera House, Friday evening.
We learn they drummed up a large attend
ance considering the short notice. The
boys say the acting was poor ami the wo
men ugly. These female tramps recently
figured in the police court of Atlanta, and
Miss May was lined $100 for an inde
cent song. If progressive, liberal-minded
Atlanta puts her condemnation on them,
they should retire from the stage. Al
though the show was not as indecent as
might have been expected from the hand
bills, yet it so far infringes upon refine
ment that it should not be allowed in intel
ligent, Christian communities, and their
appearance in any town should be regard
ed as an insult. From all wo can learn,
the respectable men who patronized them
are heartily ashamed of it.
OX THE RIVER BOTTOMS.
Last Wednesday, with our faithful fowl
ing companion, the writer took a tramp
over the upper river bottoms touching the
northern and eastern boundaries or the
city. We wore surprised to seo the im
provements going on up there, and the
amount of solid work being put in on these
lands. A broad extent of wood land nad
been cleared and the wood corded up. A
ditch of considerable depth and breadth
has been cut from a culvert on the Macon
A Augusta road to the river hod, a distance
of more than a half mile, thus reclaiming
an area of the richest bottom land that lias
never been la cultivation within the writer's
knowledge.
Further down towards the city, ami op
posite the residence of John Davis, we found
a large body of water covering the flats.
In the summer this water is stagnant and
breeds disease and deatii. A ditch hero, a
few hundred yards in length, hardly so far,
with the proper depth, carrying the flood
when the rains overflow, back to the main
channel, would bo another decided im
provement materially as well as hygien-
ally. It would open a large body of the
richest land over which tho Hoods have de
posited their wealth of fertilizing substan
ces, and be the means of draining a large
body of standing water, which is and must
be, as long as it remains, a prolific source
of the fevers that prevail in tho summer In
that neighborhood.
The Dizzy Blondes Robbed in Mil
ledgeville of Jewelry, etc.—Miss Fan
nie May Informed us last night that her
bad luck did not end in Atlanta, but that
she had her trunk stolen In Milledgeville
early yesterday morning from the depot
platform while waiting to be checked to
Macon. In addition to this also, several of
tho trunks belonging to the girls of the
company were iobbed.
Miss Emma Bradley lost nine gold rings,
bracelets, gold button, chains, breastpin
and earrings, valued at some $350.00. Miss
Markham had a quantity of clothes stolen.
The business manager of the Fannie May
troupe remained over in Milledgeville yes
terday to see if he could obtain any trace
of the thieves. He arrived In Macon last
night, reporting that be found Miss May’s
trunk stored away in some neighboring
woods, its contents untouched, but no trace
■uld be obtained of the missing dothing
and jewelry .—Telegraph Sr Mtuenger, 21th.
On enquiry we learn thattheobove state
ment Is exceedingly “dizsy", to say tho
least of it. It seems tho oompany arrived
in this city at 4:30 p. h. Friday, and walk-
od to the hotel, leaving some trunks on the
platform at the depot. On leaving tho fol
lowing morning at 4:20 one of those trunks
was missing. The business manager re
mained over Saturday to recover the trunk.
He said nothing of any (other loss. The
trunk was found in a gully near the depot,
its contents, as stated by tin “business
manager”, untouched—strange to say. The
trunk contained nothing valuable and, pro
bably, for that reason was left at the depot.
Mr. Marshall, the proprietor of the Oconee
House, nor our police, nor any one else, so
far as we know, ever heard one word about
the loss of jewelry or clothing until they
saw It In tho “Telegraph”. It is not bo-
lived that the “Dizzy Blondes" lost any
thing here. The only loss sustained by
their visit was to those who patronized
them. ^
Personal.
Mrs. E. J. Flemister of Griffin, is visiting
her mother, Mrs. Wledenman.
We are pleased to see Mr. J. H. Brooks at
his store again, after a week’s sevoro Ill
ness.

day as lively as ever. Ho said the last
news from home was, one more.

A TRUE DOG STORY.
We might ns wellTaugfi as cry!. As our
friend Wledenman expresses lt-“yes,
sometimes, almost always, perhaps, some
more”—but now and then the most side
shaking humor has a tinge of sadness in
it, audit maybe so with our dog story.
But hereby hangs the tale. Last Saturday,
a great many colored people were in town,
and one of them, a bright young fellow,
had a dog along, with a short rope, or plow
line attached to him* We noticed him par
ticularly, because the dog was in trouble.
The owner ol the dog (and the dog was a
“yallcr” dog) wanted to go in Fred Hanft’s
stoic and replenish his stock somehow, so
to speak—and, the dog, we forgot to men
tion, had one ear cut square off, by a steal
trap no doubt,—well, tho owner of the dog
turned him over to an old colored friend,
standing by, who was eating cheese and
gingor-broad. The innocent dog, tho’ a
captive, saw his opportunity, and at one
“fell swoop” took in cheese, ginger cake
and all. The old friend muttered some
harsh words and let the dog go. When the
owner of this “yaller” dog came out of Mr
Hanft’s and enquired for his petr, he was
surprised to see him jerking at a hunch of
beef, over at Perry A Denton's platform.
Where this “yaller” dog got the beef we
are not prepared to say. Maybe John Da
vis lost it, or some other popular butcher.
But we dare say, such an innocent looking,
tasteful, restrained dog, has not been in
town from the country in a long time.
Beautiful Custom-Made Clothing, at Lee
Brown A Co’s, just in, consisting in part
of Scotch Plaids, Cassimeres, plain and fan
cy, Cheviots Ac., and the very choicest
trimmings—all new, of the latest styles,
and patterns. We invite an inspection—no
trouble to show onr goods. All wool fab
rics used in tho make up. Every article
will be found precisely as represented.
Garments made in any style desired. Bus
iness suits all wool, in prices from $16,00 to
$30,000.
It was the pleasure of the writer to look
through these now goods, on yesterday,
and if his jugment is worth anything, it
amounts this—nf prettier or more stylish
and seasonable Spring and Summer pat
terns for gentlemen’s dress goods or busi
ness suits, are to be found anywhere in
Georgia than those now displayed on the
counters of Lee Brown A Co., and in fit
ting, Mr. Thos. Brown is known to bo a
firstratc cutter and always pleases cus
tomers. Call in, see for yourself and be
satisfied.
Look Out : There is an ordinance in this
city, if wo are right, which prohibits the
driving of teams on the sidewalks, under
a penalty of live dollars fine for each of
fence. Wo heard one of our citizens say,
last week, that lie intended to report every
such offense to tho City Council. So, look
out.
We saw on Friday, a substantial colored
tuan, hauling home five or .six hundred
pounds of meat unsmoked, which ho said
would last him and his largo family through
tiie year. He will smoko a good portion of
it. The wonder with us was, where he got
the money to bu> It, or tho credit? But he
doesn’t have to buy corn to oat with it, and
right there the answer suggests itself.

We tho Grand Jury, chosen, selected and
sworn for the February Term, Baldwin Su

Presentments:
ROADS AND RRIDGES.
We have carofully inspected the River
bridge and find that It needs attention. We
recommend it bo tightened or screwed up,
so as to prevent its swagging; that the
floor lie closely driven up and new pieces put
iu a few unsafe places. We also notice that
mud from tho main track, has been thrown
over the weatherboarding upon the outside
timbers, thereby damaging them and di
rect the samo should bo removed. We
think said bridgo should bo at once cov
ered.
The lower bridge over Fishing creek, we
recommend should be, without delay, re
covered ; the roof of same leaking badly, to
the Injury of the timbers. .We Rad the
floor of the said bridge needing some Im
pairs. though slight, and a railing on boUi
sides of tho same.
Tho upper bridge on same creek, we And
in fair order. The bridgo OTer Camp creek,
on Scottsboro road, in good order, being a

Tiie above figures show that expenses J
for the past year have been unusually largo,
but to some extent you havo got value re
ceived in a substantial bridge over the Oco
nee river, which with reasonable care and no
accident will last for many years. It isessen-
tial and necessary that said bridge should
be weatherboardod and covered during the
coming summer, and any suggestions or
recommendations in regard thereto from
your body will be appreciated.
Pauperism seems to be on tho increase
in the county, the poor house is now oc
cupied almost to its full capacity. Aid
has been extended to a number who are
not inmates of the poor house during the
past year, but only to well authenticated
objects of charity.
Since the last Term of the Superior Court
I have contracted witli and leased from
Messrs. Roberts A Brake, for the period of
ten years, commencing Nov. the 1st,1880, the
offices now occupied by the different coun
tv officers, (four in number) and the largo
hall for court and other purposes at and
Tor the sum of three hundred and fifty
dollars annuallv. Thus far, the arrange
