A WOEFUL GAME.
The Dixies Climb Over the Oglethorpe*
with Eighteen Buns.
The twelfth game of the State cham
pionship base ball series was witnessed
in a fair crowd at Base Ball Park yester
day afternoon, and was won by the Dixie’s
by a score of 18 to 10. The game was
loosely played throughout and was one of
the poorest of the season. The Dixies
went to the bat in the opening of the game
ana scored seven runs in the first
inning. The Oglethorpes followed with
five runs. In the second inning, bj heaiy
batting, the Dixies brought in one man.
while the Oglethorpes sent three across
the plate. The third inning was a blank
for both clubs. The pitching of 1 erry
proved ineffective, and in the lo
ginning of the sixth inning Westcott
went to the centre, and with the
change, the Oglethorpes’ fate was sealed.
The rest of their score was blank, and the
game concluded, a complete victory tor
the champions. Among the plays worthy
of note was the excellent guard of first
l>:ise by Dodd and the catching of Shea.
The catching of Brown, of the Ogle
thorpes, was admirable. Deignan, in the
left field, did good work, and Jones, at
first base, did strong playing.
The game was watched with considera
ble interest by the spectators, and the
players loudly 7 cheered. The following is

Cutting a Building Plan.
Considerable excitement was created
in the vicinity of Congress and Jefferson
streets about seven o’clock last night by
the arrest of Mr. Andrew R. Dean, from
Effingham county, charged with malicious
mischief in destroying an ar
chitect’s plan of the Colored Masonic
Temple in process of erection on Gwin
nett street, which was being examined
by several colored men, trustees of the
colored order. Front the statements
of Dean and the witnesses of the aflair
there appears to lie two conflicting
stories. <>n being questioned by a
reporter Mr. Dean stated that he was
walking along the street accompan
ied by bis daughter, and that
several colored men were gathered on the
pavement holding a large paper between
them and obstructing the walk. He asked
them to make way, and receiving no
reply, struck the paper with his cane,
mutilating it and cutting it in two. He
passed on. and was addressed by the
inen. when he walked back towards them.
There were no blows. He was shortly
afterwards arrested by Constable
Henry Wetherhorn, and taken
before Magistrate Isaac Russell,
where witnesses were examined,
and Le gave bail for his appearance to
day. The colored men having the plan,
stated that they were not standing on the
sidewalk, but were on one side, and were
not in any way interfering with or ob
structing travel, and that the act was
purely malicious.
Tic' cost of the plan was s.‘!s. and its de
struction. it is claimed, will delay the
work of erecting the building.
Tlie Charleston Centennial.
The one hundredth anniversary of the

The Turners at Charleston.
When the announcement was first made
of the arrangements for celebrating the
Centennial in Charleston, the Charleston
Turnverein, who always come out strong
on such occasions, immediately deter
mined to take a hand in the festivities,
and invited their brethren in Savannah to
come over and join in the fun. The Sa
vannah Turners will consequently arrive
here on Sunday morning next, and the
two organizations will have a two days’
festival—one on Sunday afternoon, at
Rentley’s Point, ana another on Monday,
at Hibernian Park. A considerable num

An Unconscious Rider.
Last night al*out half-past 10 o’clock a
man was observed by a party of gentle
men riding down the Bay on horseback,
under the influence of liquor and uncon
scious. It was a fortunate thing the horse
was gentle, as the bridle was seen to be
hanging down on the animal’s neck and
the rider swaying to and fro in the saddle.
The sagacity "of the horse carried his rider
home. The party was watched by alto
-1 iceman, who feared dangerous results,
but, luckily, nothing happened, and the
man was assisted to his quarters bv a
trusty servant.

Effected.
At a meeting of the Directors of the

in New York yesterday, it was decided to
offer the strikers as a compromise an ad
vance of 15 per cent, on all wages, with
no decrease of time, but instead, to keep
each and every employe fully supplied
with “Kieffer’s Peruvian Cure." which is
warranted to cure chills and fever in all

THE STRIKERS’ RANKS BROKEN.
A Leading Member or tlie Brotherhood
Resumes Work-The Others Still
Standing Out— Returning to the Key*
in Other Cities.
The ranks of the telegraph strikers in
Savannah were broken yesterday by the
reinstatement of one of the leading mem
bers of the Brotherhood in the Western
Union Company’s service.
A rumor was circulated that the entire
force had resumed work. Upon inquiry
the rumor was learned to be without
foundation, and only one. M, P. Dundon,
had quit the Brotherhood and gone back.
A Morning News reporter, in conver
sation with others of the strikers, asked
if they would follow, to which they em
phatically replied: “No: we will stick
till the company gives in.”
They are naturally indignant at the de
sertion from their ranks, but the matter is
past their control. Inquiry at the West
ern Union office found Mr. Dundon at his
desk. Manager Dillon came to the deliv
ery window and stated that Dundon had
petitioned for reinstatement and had been
received in the jiosition he occupied be
fore the strike was inaugurated.
On being asked upon what grounds Dun
don had based his petition, Mr. Dillon re
plied: “He believed the strike was over,
and having no taith in tlie promises ot the
Brotherhood, asked to be received back.”
“Were any inducements offered him to
return*'”
“None at all. Mr. Dundon came to me
personally sitad made his petition for rein
statement on the grounds l stated before.”
Permission being granted for a personal
inter . iew the reporter entered the office,
but Dundon asked the chief operator to
Ik* tea-used, and slid out before he could
le reached, saying to an operator as he
left that he did not care to talk about the
matter.
Being questioned in regard to the gen
eral movement in the South, Mr. Dillon
replied: “The thing is over, and was as I
knew it would be from the very first.
While we have won the fight, the policy
of the Western Union Company will con
tinue as it was before the ’unpleasantness’
liegan—just and liberal towards its em
ployes. ' l am willing to compare the
salaries paid our men with those
paid bv anv corporation in the
State of Georgia. The men
had no grievances, but were led into tire*
movement by designing parties, and the
great majority of them have suffered
enough already. The company has never
refused to listen to the respectful peti
tions of its employes, and will continue,
as in the past, to always right the ‘real’
wrongs of all of its employes. The men
who have shown their loyalty to the com
pany will be well provided for as a mat
ter of course.”
“How are the offices in oilier localities
in the South 7” asked the reporter.
“In nearly all the leading centres the
Brotherhood operators are going hack,
and it is merely a matter of a short time
when the whole thing will be ended
( handing the reporter the following tele
grams)."
“These rejMirts will show you how tlie
matter stands:”
Augusta—One union man came hack
to work last night. Two came to
work this morning, and two non-union
men, hut strikers out of sympathy. The
two potters returned this morning. We
have nearly a full force now and can
handle business as promptly as before the
strike began.
Atlanta—Full force at work. Two of
the strikers who applied for reinstate
ment, on account ot their places lieing
filled, were sent to Augusta.
Charleston—All the strikers made ap
plication to-day- and were reinstated. We
have now our full force, consisting ot tlie
same men we had tiefore the strike, and
wha are glad to be able to get back.
Richmond—Several applications have
l>een made here from the strikers lor re
instatement.
Nashville—We have a full force hero.
Only four men went out, and some of
them came back. Five men have been
sent from here to New Orleans.
Montgomery, Ala.—Working all right
and no trouble in handling the business.
in the Savannah office the men have la
bored faithfully. Mr. Dillon for the first
ten days of the strike averaged nineteen
hours work a day, and was ably assisted
by Mr. Griffith, of the Telephone Ex-
Exchange. In addition to the return of
Mr. Dundon two other men are expected
to-day, when the force will lack but two of
the original full force. Mr. Riddick, who
was ordered front New York about ten
days ago to assist temporarily.and who has
rendered valuable service, will return as
soon as the two remaining vacancies are
filled. The strike, so far as the South is
concerned, is apparently over. Many of
those concerned have been made to suffer
from the unwise move. Mr. George C.
Harris, well known in Savannah, and one
the Cuba Cable operators at Jacksonville,
who went out, subsequently made appli
cation to return, but his place was filled,
and he was forced to accept a place in
New Orleans, for which place he left last
night, leaving his family and bis home,
which he had to sacrifice on not (icing
able to return to his old place.
Considerable excitment was created
about the Western Union office during the
afternoon by the appearance of a train
dispatcher named James Buckley, from
the Savannah, Florida and Western Rail
way, who entered the office and demand
ed to see Mr. This was refused,
l>eing business hoiffs, when he used in
sulting epithets toward Manager Dillon.
He was ordered from the office anu left
after some talk. The action of the dis
patcher was entirely unprovoked.
A Savannah pm at Rar Harbor.
Replying to a friend at home, a promi
nent citizen of Savannah writes as fol
lows of Bar Harbor, in Maine, its a sum
mer resort:
“ I wish you were here for a few days to
breathe this health-inspiring air. The
mountains come right down to the ocean,
and everything conspires to please the
eve. The blue expanse of waters con
trast finely with the gray fringe of rocks,
crowned with dark green masses of woods,
which are interspersed with the brilliant
green turf of the pleasure grounds sur
rounding the private residences and some
of the hotels. It is so cool that the
heaviest winter clothing of Savannah is
comfortable in the evening. During the
day the sun is warm, but not too much so
for exercise, and the atmosphere is so in
vigorating that everybody is out of doors
during every moment of daylight. It re
minds me of the weather we had in Upper
Georgia when Hood's army marched
across from Rome to Gadsden, Ala. The
feeding here is simple, but rather more
substantial than that afforded by Hood’s
commissariat on that memorable occa
sion.”

RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
Bright Flashes of Intelligence from Near
ami Afar.
The Central Railroad Company will be
gin work on their new Bull street ticket
office in a few days. W hen completed,
under the present designs, it will lie a
model office.
The street in front of the Savannah,
Florida and Western Railroad depot will
soon be put in the most thorough order.
The freight traffic of the Savannah,
Florida and Western Railroad has grown
into such proportions that an extension
to their freight department will be made
this fall.
Within a year or more the Central Rail
road will have a solid road bed on the en
tire line of road.
The Charleston and Savannah Railroad
will have two new sleepers placed on their
line for the lienetit of Northern travel at
the beginning of the winter season.
A rumor is current at Dallas, Texas, in
railroad circles that Gould has purchased
the Houston and Texas Central Road from
Huntington. Some say this grows out of
the fact that Huntington gets to Galves
ton with his Sunset and Star Crescent
routes over tlie Galveston, Houston and
Harrisburg, which belong to Gould, and
that Huntington has also secured freight
privileges over the Missouri Pacific Rail
road.

The gross earnings of the New York
Central Railroad tor the year ending
June 30, as reported to the New York
State Comptroller, were $28,929,444 72. On
this amount the State levies a tax of
$144,047 22.
The grading on the Mieanopy branch of
the Florida Southern has been completed
and iron will Ik> laid as soon as crossties
can be procured.
President Verdery, of the Augusta and
Klberton Railroad, lias been to Richmond
in the interest of that road. The result
was very satisfactory. He had an inter
view with President Buford, of the Rich
mond and Danville Railroad. The grad
ing of the road is progressing rapidly.
The schooner Five Brothers arrived at
Jacksonville from New York Wednesday
with a cargo of steel rails, spikes, fish
bars, etc., for the Jacksonville. Tampa
and Key West Railroad. Including this
cargo there are now enough rails at Jack
sonville to lay ten miles of track. The
track layers have reached and are now
crossing McCoy’s creek, and the work
will be pushed as rapidly as possible.
All the iron and fastenings necessary
to complete the track from Ocala to Lees
burg are now being transported from l’a
latka, and the engineer corps, now camped
within sight of Leesburg, will shortly
leave for East Lake Weir, from which
point Major Couper intends taking a se
ries of levels between the lake and Ocla
waha river.
At a meeting of tlie stockholders of the
Jacksonville and Atlantic Railroad, held
Wednesday, the stockholders of the Ar
lington anil Atlantic road also being pre
sent, amicable arrangements were made,
and the two companies were consolidated
under the name of the Jacksonville and
Atlantic Railroad Company. The matter
ot issuing bonds was discussed, but as the
law requires that twenty days' notice
shall be given no definite action was taken
further than to pass a resolution instruct
ing the Secretary to at once give the ne
cessary notice.
THE SOUTHERN COMMITTEE.
Yesterday’s Atlanta Constitution says:
“Yesterday afternoon there was an im
portant meeting of the Executive Com
mittee of the Southern Railway and Steam
ship Association in the office of the Gene
ral Commissioner in this city. There
were present: Henry Fink, Vice Presi
dent East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor
gia Railroad; T. M, R. Talcott, General
Manager Richmond and Danville Rail
road: M. 11. Smith, Vice President Lous
villeand Nashville Railroad; W.J. Raoul,
President Georgia Central Railroad; John
Scott, Vice President Cincinnati Southern;
R. A. Anderson, Superintendent Western
and Atlantic Railroad, and B. I>. Hazel,
General Manager New York and Charles
ton Steamship Line.
“The absent members of the committee
were, as usual, represented by Mr. Virgil
Powers, the commissioner who presided.
Besides the members of the committee the
following railroad officials were present:
Joseph E. Brown, President Western and
Atlantic Railroad: J. M. Brown, General
Freight Agent, Western and Atlantic
Railroad; J. M. Culp, General Freight
Agent, Louisville and Nashville Railroad;
Theodore Welch, General Freight Agent,
Louisville and Nashville Railroad; E. P.
Wilson, General Freight Agent, Cincin
nati Southern Railroad; H. H. Colbran,
General Freight Agent, Alabama Great
Southern Railroad: S. B. Pickens, Gen
eral Freight Agent, South Carolina Rail
road: R. D. Carpenter, General Agent,
associated lines; J. R. Ogden, General
Freight Agent. East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia Railroad, and G. I. Bonham.
Assistant Freight Agent, Richmond and
Danville Railroad.
The first matter discussed was the clas
sification of domestics, paper, and woolen
products of Southern mills. The present
classification gives an advantage to the
mills on goods shipped by them direct.
After discussion it was resolved to con
tinue the present advantage allowed to
the mills as a just encouragement to
Southern manufacturers. Goal oil was
discussed next, but it was determined to
let it remain in its present classification.
The rates to Atlanta were next consid
ered. The committee had read the peti
tion of tha Atlanta Chamber of Com
merce, setting forth the inequity of the
present rates as compared with those al
lowed to competing points. A similar
petition was read from the merchants
of Chattanooga. Senator Brown appear
ed in behalf of the merchants of Atlanta,
and set forth their claims in a clear and
effective manner. He was heard with
marked attention by the committee. It
was resolved to thoroughly investigate the
claim of the Atlanta merchants for better
rates. To this end the Commissioner was
requested to collect full statistics of all
the lines leading to Atlanta, showing the
local rates from Atlanta ami all compet
ing points to all stations. When this in
formation is received there will lie another
meeting of the committee, and the ques
tion will lie fully considered in all its
hearings.
Cotton rates were taken up and briefly
discussed, but they were left unchanged,
The committee adjourned at 8 o’clock.
There will lie a meeting of the rate com
mittee to-day.”
RAILROAD EARNINGS.
The Augusta Chronicle says: “The
freight earnings of the Charlotte, Colum
18a and Augusta Railroad for the second
week in July.lßß3, were $4,894; same time
last year, $4,304; increase, $532. The earn
ings of tiie East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia, the road that bought up the
Richmond and Danville, for the first three
weeks in the past July, were $194,363 08,
against $151,914 48 for the same period last
year, an increase of $42, 54. It is said
that the gross earnings of the Richmond
and Danville system for the past
six months are $400,000, and
the net earnings are $60,000
more than for the same period last year.
The gross earnings from January to July,
1883, are reported at $3,401,074,’ and the
net earnings at $1,370,411. The gross
earnings of the Western North Carolina
Railroad for that period were $146,:i04, and
the net earnings $46,116. To show the
large business that is being doije on that
line, we quote the gross earn
ings for the same six months
last year—only $95,523. The increase is
$50,000. For the year it is estimated that
the gross earnings will be at least $300,-
000, and the net earnings $100,000.”
Rome, Ga., May 23, 1883.
Eaitor Constitution: With the hope
that it will reach the eye of other suffer
ers, I desire to write you a statement of
my case and my wonderful rescue from
death from malarial blood poison by the
use of the great S. 8. S. (Swift's Specific).
In 1880 I came from the North to take
charge of the gas works in Borne, as Su
perintendent, and after the overflow which
occurred in the spring following, I was
very much exposed to malarial poison,
and in 1882 found my blood so contami
nated with the poison that I was forced to
give up business. 1 was treated by the
Rome physicians without relief, they ad
vising me to go Nortn, which I did. The
doctors North told me that my only hope
was to return to the milder climate, and
accordingly’ 1 came back to Rome, com
pletely broken down and nearly
a skeleton. My trouble finally
determined in an abscess of
the liver, and nearly every one (myself
included) thought I was doomed to die
within a few days. In this condition I
was advised by a friend to take Swift’s
Specific, and 1 took it just as a drowning
inan wimld catch at a straw; but as soon
as my system got under the influence of
the remedy, the abscess came to a point
and burst, passing <ff without pain. In
fifteen days alter this I was up at my
work, and have since enjoved excellent
health.
Every sufferer from -malarial poison
should take Swift’s Specific. Yours truly,
€. G. Spencer,
Superintendent Rome Gas Light Cos.

THE JULY CHOP REPORT.
IVhat the Commissioner of Agriculture
of Georgia has to Say About the
Crop**.
The July crop report was issued yester
day. The Commissioner says that the
general condition of the cotton crop is
very similar to that of the crop of 1881, at
the same date, but varying greatly in the
several sections. In North Georgia,
August Ist. 1883, the prospect, com
pared to an average, was 70; Middle
Georgia, 73; Southwest Georgia, 80; East
Georgia, 68; Southeast Georgia, 87; in the
whole State, 75. The general prospect was
6 per cent, below that of the same date in
1881. and 18 per cent, below the prospect
on the Ist day ot August, 1882, when it
was 93. '
By reference to the “Notes from Corres
pondents," published elsewhere in this
circular, a very satisfactory idea will be
obtained of the condition ol the crop in
each of the counties. It may be remarked
that a falling off in the general yield of
25 per cent., as indicated, is exceptional.
But the condition of the crop at
this date (August 6th ) in a large portion
of the State, still suffering for rain, and
with but ten or fifteen days in which to
make effective growth, is very critical.
When seasonable rains do occur, the dan
ger to be apprehended and which is prac
tically unavoidable, is the wholesale shed
ding of forms and young fruit, and the
tardy effort of the plant to produce new
forms will prove abortive unless the fall
shall prove exceptionally late and other
wise favorable.
CORN.
The condition and prospect of corn is
even worse than that of cotton. By sec
tions the report shows the following as
compared to an average prospect: North
Georgia, 68; Middle Georgia, 67; Boutli
west Georgia, 62; East Georgia, 67; South
east Georgia, 88, and the whole State, .4.
The main crop in Southwest Georgia,
where planted early and well cultivated,
escaped serious damage from drought.
In Middle Georgia the entire crop has
suffered more or less, being somewhat
later, and at the same time the drought
having set in earlier.
RICE, SUGAR CANE. SORGHUM, FIELD
PEAS, BTC.
The condition of each and all of these
minor crops corresponds very closely
with that of the cotton and corn, having
suffered from drought proportionately as
their natural period of development and
maturity is early or late. Sugar cane,
an important crop only in the southern
half of the State, was held back by the
late spring, and shows a prospect of
only si in Southwest Georgia, 75 ill East
Georgia and 90 in Southeast Georgia, tlie
section to which the crop is chiefly con
fined. With good-seasons throughout tlie
remainder of the summer and fall, there
is an ample time in which to mature fair
crop.
The area in sweet potatoes in -Middle
and North Georgia has been greatly cir
cumscribed by reason of the extreme dry
weather of June and July, which gave
little opportunity for putting out the
usual quantity of vines.
Railroad Employes.
The leading business men of Providence,
R. 1., compose the Hunt’s Remedy Cos.,
and they guarantee all testimonials pub
lished by them to be genuine. The follow
ing, dated May 4, 1883, from Mr. W. 11.
Blanchard, Lowell, Mass., is but one ot
the thousand remarkable cures that are
being made by this wonderful medicine
Mr. Blanchard says: “1 have been greatly
troubled for oversix years with acute kid
ney disease, with severe pain
in" my back and Hips. I
was formerly employed on the Bos
ton and Lowell Railroad, but was obliged,
owing to the constant jar, to give up the
railroad business, as many others have
been obliged to do. on account of kidney
disease. 1 have tried many medicines,
but received no permanent relief. A
friend recommended me to use Hunt’s
Remedy. 1 purchased a bottle of one of
our druggists in Lowell, and commenced
to improve at once, and alter using two
bottles I was entirely free from all pain,
and consider myself cured, and l cheer
fully recommend this wonderful medicine,
Hunt’s Remedy, to all the sufferers from
kidney and liver disease.”
At Liberty.
For a number of years 1 was afflicted
with kidney and gravel disease, and suf
fered with pains in my limbs and back at
times so severely that it seemed that 1
could not endure it. I used several so
called cures recommended for these dis
eases, but they did me no good. A friend
of mine that had used Hunt's Remedy,
and pronounced it the best in use, urged
me to try it, and 1 purchased a bottle at
George E. Hall’s drugstore in Manchester,
and before I had used one bottle 1 began
to feel much better, the pains in
the bladder and kidneys were reduceed
a good deal, and after using
live bottles 1 found that Hunt’s Remedy
had done all that it was -recommended to
do. 11 had removed all the pain, my
appetite improved, and 1 gained several
pounds in a few weeks. 1 have renewed
vigor and strength for one of my years
(54 i, and 1 can only thank the proprietors
of Hunt's Remedy "for my good health of
to-day, and you are at liberty to publish
lbis,that it may lie the means of someone
being cured by the use of your truly won
derful remedy. W. H. Terrill.
