m. The Blues Brass Band and a fine string
band have been engaged to furnish music,
and the following committee will be In
charge, to wit; Frank Molina. Chairman;
J. M. Johnsen, L. J. Hanley, J. A. O’Bvrne
and F. W. Symmons, which fact is a guar
antee of the pleasures and enjoyment of all
who attend being ca.refuliy looked after.
The committee have decided to relieve the
monotony of dancing and amuse their
friends by Introducing a pie-eatieg match
between six contestants. The match will
be very ludicrous, and must he seen to be
properly appreciated. As probably very
few of our citizens have witnessed such a
contest, the following brief description Is
given : There will be six pies placed upon
a very smooth table, and one boy posted in
front of each pie, with his hands tied be
hind his back. At a signal they start eat
ing and the one who finishes first wins the
prize. The pies are to be made of black
berries, so one can Imagine the faces of the
pie-eaters after they get well started at eat
ing. This will add to the pleasures of the
occasion, and as no effort will be spared In
any way in their power by the committee to
make the affair enjoyable to their friends. It
may be predicted with safety that the anni
versary celebration will be a grand success.

About- six o’clock yesterday morning Mrs.
Robider, who lives on the corner of Duffy
and Drayton streets, turned her chickens
out to feed, when a negro man hit upon a
plan of procuring a supply for his Sunday
dinner. He baited a cord three or four
yards In length with several grains of corn,
and, clucking, threw it to the chickens.
As soon as they would approach the corn he
would draw in the cord uear enough to
grab them. He had succeeded In capturing
two fine hens in this novel manner
w ton lie. was detected by the negro servant
woman, who Immediately gave the alarm,
whan the fellow picked up the birds he had
stolen-, together with his string, and hurried
aWay. Th?o!d woman pursued him, how
ever, and being pressed, be dropped the
chickens and continued his flight. A police
man came upon the scene shortly after, and
the fisher for chickens was seized and
escorted to the barracks, and will have to
gtye an account of hl6 misdeeds before the
MJftor this moral eg. He will doubtless
nucleate In the neighborhood of Uuyler
swamp for a few days. Had he not been
detected so soon In his game, he would no
dodbt have bagged quite a number of the

t At half-past eight o’clock yesterday morn

Dwyer, who pranced upon the scene and
whisked the combatants off to the barracks.

degraded white woman, who was under the
influence of liquor, and who was stagger
ing along the street using obscene and pro

Death and Funeral of Hon. W. W,
Paine.
It is with feelings of sincere regret that
we announce to our readers this morning
the death of our well known and highly es
teemed fellow citizen, Hon. William Wise
ham Paine, which sad event occurred at his
residence on Gaston street, Saturday night
at ten minutes to eight o’clock. Throughout
this community, and Indeed In the State,
where he is so well and popularly known,
this announcement will call forth general
and sincere expressions of sor
row. Captain Paine bad been con
fined to his room only two weeks,
and until within the past few days It was
hoped that he would recover, but, alas!
these hopes were not realized, and there has
passed from our midst one of our most
useful and honored citizens. He was an
amiable, kind-hearted gentleman, unassum
ing in his manners, genial and courteous to
all, and ever ready to do a friend a service.
He was noted for his integrity, and his
earnest and conscientious desire to do what
was right under all circumstances.
Captain Paine was bora In Richmond,
Virg nla, and was sixty-six years of
age. He came to Georgia when quite a
young man, his father, an architect, navlng
been engaged In the construction of the
public buildings at MUledgevlHe.and whose
daughter had married the late Mr. R M.
Orme, Sr. Capt. Paine a* tended the law
school in Washington, Wilkes county, and
was admitted to the bar shortly after
attaining his majority. He then settled
In Telfair county and soon made hosts
of friends, and represented the county In
the Senate (each county at that time being
entitled to a Senator) for two terms. Dur
ing the administration of Gov. Howell Cobb
be was one of the private secretaries to the
Chief Executive. In the early part of the
late war he was a Captain In the First
Georgia Regiment (regulars), and subse
quently was commissioned Quartermaster,
which position he filled In those trying
times with great ability. At the close of the
war he removed to this city and en
gaged in the practice of the law.
He was elected to represent tbe First dis
trict in Congress for the short term after
the “reconstruction” of the State, and also
represented Chatham county in the Georgia
Legislature. Bince its organization, nine
years ago, he has been a member of the
Board of County Commissioners, and for
several years has worthily filled the position
of Chairman. He was a zealous member of
the Georgia Historical Society,
aod took a lively interest in all mat
ters concerning it, being especially
active as Chairman of the Lecture Commit
tee. He was a Curator of the society for a
number of years, ,and at the time of his
death was Corresponding Secretary. Capt.
Paine married Miss Cornelia Suets, daugh
ter of the late A. A. Smets, Esq., who sur
vives him.
The funeral took place yesterday after
noon at half past four o’clock at Bt. John’s
Episcopal Church and was very largely at
tended. Tbe members of the Georgia His
torical Society assembled at their hall at four
o’clock, for the purpose of paying the last
tribute of respect to their honored brother
member and officer. They proceeded in
carriages to the church and formed on
the outside on either side of the en
trance. Shortly after, the hearse, with
tbe casket containing the remains,
accompanied by the family and relatives
of the deceased, arrived. The pall
bearers were Col. John Screven, Col. R. D.
Walker. Geo L. Cope, Esq.. Capt. D. G.
Purse, Capt. J M. Guersrd, Hon. Wm. D.
Harden, Col. Rufus E. Lester and WariDg
Russell, Esq. The casket was placed in
front of the chancel, and was covered with
a number of choice floral decorations. Tbe
Georgia Historical Society followed In a
body, and occupied seats In the middle aisle.
County and city officials were also present
In a body,and the attendance of citizens gen
erally attested the high estimation In which
the deceased was held. The services were
conducted by Rev. Chas. H. Strong, rector
of the church, assisted by Rev. I. B. Ken
nard, of St. Matthew’s mission, and were
very Impressive. At the close of the church
services, the casket was borne out, the
rctor preceding, and placed In the hearse.
The funeral cortege then moved slowly
rff, and proceeded to Bonaventure Ceme
tery, where all that was mortal of a good
•nan and honored citizen was consigned to
its’fSft l place. The services at the
orarrp w.TP performed by Rev. Mr. Strong,
and were de?” 1 ? affecting. At the close of
the Interment th'S- mouud decked with
the tributes of lovit? .remembrance in the
shape of beautiful flora! anchors, crosses
and wreaths.

Saturday morning at 11 o’clock the in
quest in the case of the death of George,
alias "Chucky,” Williams was resumed at
the court house. Several wltnef ses were ex
amined, but no facts of any Importance
were adduced, the evidence being merely
corroborative of that elicited at the investi
gation on Friday, and which was given in
the Morning News of Saturday. There are
two important witnesses, however, who
could not be obtained, and it was decided
to postpone further Investigation until this
morning, when it Is expected their attend
ance may be secured.
During the investigation Saturday the
colored Cons'able Joe Simmons, who killed
Williams, was in the court room, in custody
of Deputy Sheriff Hall, colored. In the con
fusion incident to the adjournment, Sim
mons disappeared, and the Coroner inquir
ing Into *he matter was informed that Sim
mons had gone off with Cons able Wether
horn, and he presumed that the latter would
take him to the jail. It was subsequently
ascertained that Simmons was not at the
jail, nor was he found at his house. In fact
he bad disappeared, and the natural sup
position is that he has shipped the
city. Deputy Sheriff Hall stated to
the Coroner that he saw Bimmons with
Constable Wetherhorn, and calling to him,
said: “Joe, where are you going?” Sim
mons replied: “I’m going to jiU under com
mitment of the Coroner.” Hall, thinking
it was all right, and that he was going to
jail in charge of Constable Wetherhorn,
made no attempt to bring him back. Where
he went to afterwards Is not known, and
we have been unable to ascertain Constable
Wetherhorn’s statement, of the affair, or
whether he considered Simmons under his
charge or not. There seems to be consid
erable doubt on this point, and as Wether
horn is an old constable it is not likely be
would have permitted the escape had he re
garded himself responsible.
Coroner Sheftall reported the escape
promptly to Solicitor General Charlton, who
directed that Immediate steps be taken to
recapture 81mmons If he Is In the city, and
to have instituted a rigid investigation Into
the manner of his escape.
The Coroner informs us that he had not
issued any commitment, and no one had any
authority to take Simmons from the court
room without his order. With the meagre
information before us, It Is difficult to say
where the responsibility In this case rests.
It is certain, however, that a man who is
under arrest for having taken the life of a
fellow being has been permitted to make
his escape from a court room where there
were several officers present, and somebody
is surely to blame.
Beveral parties who know Simmons well
express the opinion that he Is yet In the
city, but up to a late hour last night he had
not been recaptured or, so far as we could
learn, beard from. We forbear maKing
further comments until It Is established
where the blame lies and who is responsible
for the escape. It is likely some action will
be taken In the matter to-day.
Habra. Corpus Cane.
George W. Tltcomb and W. A.
Friend, against whom indictments were
found for keeping a keno bank, etc., hav
ing failed to appear at the term of the court
to which their cases were called, Judge
Tompkins Issued a bench warraut against
them, and they were brought up and sur
rendered to the Sheriff, who demanded
bonds in the sum of ten thousand dollars
for their appearance under orders of the
Judge of the Superior Court. The defend
ants failed to give the required bond, and
were committed to jail. Saturday their
attorney, Mr. J. J. Abrams, sued out a writ
of habeas corpus before Hon. John O. Fer
rlll, Ordinary The defendants were brought
before the court, and after a full hearing
from the Solicitor General and the attorney
for defendants, the Ordinary rendered the
following decision:
In re habeas corpus. After listening to
full argument from couneel on both sides In
thit cause, I decide that, taking into con
sideration all the surroundings in this case,
I have jurisdiction; and further, that the
ball demanded Is excessive, the offense
charged being a simple misdemeanor by the
laws of Georgia.
The previous bond taken from these
parties for the same offense by the Judge of
the Superior Court was for tne sum of five
hundred dollars, and for the sole reason
that their failure to appear at the term of
the court specified in the bond had th§ ap
pearance of disrespect to the court, do I
now require a good bond from each of said
parties In the penal sum of one thousand
dollars, based on real estate, to be by me
approved, and that upon giving such bond
they be discharged.
Jno O. Ferrill, Ordinary.
The defendants gave the required bond
and were discharged.
The /uadimini Lap ured by tbe
ITlacou Volunteei*.
The Macon Telegraph and Messenger of
Saturday has the following in reference to
the arrival In that city on Friday morning of
the Chatham Artillery:
“According to previous notice, the
Chatham Artillery of Savannah passed
throueh the city yesterday morning early
en route to Chalybeate Springs, where they
are to spend about ten days in encampment.
“There exists a great friendship between
the Volunteers, of Macon, and the Chat
hams, of Savannah, and neither company
would permit an opportunity to pass to take
care of each other.
“On this occasion the Volunteers gave
Caterer Isaacs an order to prepare a break
fast in the rooms above the passenger depot.
Then Captain Tom Massenberg, with his
own hands, brewed them a cocktail by way
of an appetfzer.
“The Chathams were In command of
Lieut. Geo. B. Clarke, and numbered about
thirty men, rank and file. They arrived on
the Central train, and had a half hour or
more to spend In Macon. They were at
once taken hold of and carried, with some
twelve or thirteen ladies accompanying
them, to the breakfast room, and a hurried
speech of welcome made them by Captain
Carnes. The ladies were assigned to a table
to themselves, and the gentlemen sampled
Capt. Tom Massenburg’s cocktail before
breakfasting.
“After the forks had been laid aside, Ser
geant Saussy, on the part of Lieutenant
Clarke, made a short but ringing speech In
which he incorporated his thanks to their
Macon friends for their remembrance.
“Filing down stairs, the company formed
in line before embarking on the train and
gave three cheers and a tiger for the VoD
unteers, which found an echo from the Vol
unteers for the Chathams. Then Bergeant
Saussy proposed three cheers and a tiger for
Col Tom Hardeman, our candidate for Con
gressman at-large, which were given with a
will. Conductor Jim Dense shouted ‘all
aboard,’ and Col. Tom had only time to
wish the Savannah boy 6 a safe and pleasant
j ourney. ” _
Tbe fflaicb Between tbe Brennan*
and Savannah*
An important meeting of the Savannah
Base Ball Club was held Saturday evening to
consider a telegram received from the Bren
nans of New Orleans in reference to the
proposed match in this city. The Bren
nans, it appears, want a guarantee of over
three hundred dollars Instead of
half the gate money, as had been
previously arranged. After consider
ation and consultation, the Savannahs de
termined to offer a guarantee of |2UO, and
telegraphed the Brennans of this fact. It
Is anticipated that the proposition will be
accepted, as the guarantee is liberal, and the
Brennans may be expected to arrive here
on the night of the 10th, the match being
arranged to take place on the 11th Inst.
The new base ball park will be completed
by that time. The fencing Is rapidly being
put up, and the grounds will be In good
order for the players. A reasonable price
of admission will be charged, and there will
be undoubtedly an immense crowd present.
The interest In the - game Is Increasing, and
there Is great desire expressed to see the
two clubs Id the contest.
Awakened by a Sodden Plunge Into
tbe Blver.
Saturday poraing early a tug came up
to the city from below, and moored at her
wharf. The fireman on board, who was
rather drowsy, lay down on the rail for a
little snooze, and soon fell Into a sound
sleep. During his slumbers he rolled a little
too far, and tumbled Into the water. Tbe
sudden plunge into the river awakened him,
as may be supposed. A deck hand, wbo
perceived the accident, hastened
forward, and as he rose to
the surface, grabbed him and hauled
him on board. When the fireman regained
his feet he wanted to fight his rescuer, as
serting that a bucket of water had been
thrown on him.
Beware of Substitute*.
The public should bear In mind that imi
tations or substitutes of a standard medi
cine are offered, not for any benefit to
health, but to sell something that has been
bought cheap; and not daring to criminate
themselves by exact copies, their object Is
to get as near to It as is necessary to de
ceive. The remedy to detect frauds is In
your own hands. Buy no Simmons Liver
Regulator unless encased In a white wrap
per having a large red Z In the centre and
the signature of J. H. Zallin & Cos. on the

ol Exception* Filed end the Case to
Do Up.
The twenty days stav of execution in the
case of the Georgia Railroad against the
Railroad Commission, granted by Judge
Simmons in dismissing the bill for Injunc
tion, expired Thursday. The bill of excep
tions for appeal to the Supreme Court had
been filed, and the case will now go up for
review. The exceptions are as follows:
First. In refusing to grant the Injunction
as prayed for on each and every of the
grounds in complainants’ said bill set
forth.
Second. In deciding that the complain
ants, the Georgia Railroad and Banking
Company and William M. Wadley, have not
a sufficient interest, either present or In re
mainder, in the subje t matter of the suit
to maintain the bill.
Third. In deciding the act of the Legisla
ture creating the Railroad Commission was
not unconstitutional, null and void, as being
an attempt to delegate legislative powers to
said Railroad Commission, and in conflict
with paragraph 9, article 1, of tbe constitu
tion of the Sta’e of Georgia, which forbids
’he Imposing of excessive fines, or the in
fliction of unusual punishments.
Fourth. In the construction which the
said Judge placed upon the charter of the
complainan’, the Georgia Railroad and
Banking Company.
Fifth. In deciding that the twelfth sec
tion of said charter did not create a con
tract between the State and the said Geor
gia Railroad and Banking Company by
which the said company has the right to
charge any rate of freight and of passenger
tariffs not exceeding those limited In the
said twelfth section of said charter.
Sixth. In deciding that said acc of the
Legislature creating the Railroad Commis
sion is not unconstitutional, null and void
by virtue of paragraph 1, section 10 of ar
ticle 1 of the Constitution of the United
Spates, which prohibits the States from pass
ing any law impairing the obligation of con
tracts.
