The Chattahoochee, the new govern
ment boat, reached Columbus Saturday.
The Chattahoochee was built, at Louis
ville to take the place oi the old Clara
Dunning in government work on the
Chattahoochee river. She is about the
size ol the Clara, and her hull is built af-
I ter the same manner. She is not a pre-
I possessing craft,but she was built for work
I and not beauty. Some steamboat men
I retard herconstruction as rather curious,
I and do not think she will answer the pur
pose as well as expected. Work on the
Chattahoochee river will begin as soou as
I there is an available appropriation of
ufficietit amount to warrant it.
John Denney, an honest and reliable
I farmer living near Whitfield’s Crossing,
If iur miles from Hogansville, tells of this
I peculiar circumstance: Some two weeks
I ago he had some small guineas following
Ia hen. One day they were missing, and
I at the same time the peculiar actions of
I the hen were noticed, she would walk
I round and round, clucking all the time as
I it she was coaxing the brood of guineas to
I follow her. On the following day the
I hen’s strange maneuvers were continued.
I An investigation was made, and it was
I discovered that the guineas had been
I charmed by a large chicken snake, and
I were quietly sitting, unharmed, in his
I coils. When discovered the snake had
I swallowed the head and neck of a live
I chicken the size of a partridge.
On Sunday morning last George A. l’ar-
I ham, residing above Norwood, took a
I srazy negro woman to Warrenton and
I committed her to jail. She bad become
| insane only a day or two previous. She
went to the residence of Mr. Barbara on
I Saturday afternoon while the latter was
I away and frightened Mrs. Parham and
I hi r daughters to the verge of hysterics.
I She offered to do them no violence, but in
sisted upon going through the bouse and
yetting on the beds. While she was in
jail she tore all of her clothing from bar
person, and smashed to pieoes the bed
stead and everything she could lay her
I hands upon. On Monday morning she
was tried before a lunacy commission and
adjudged insmoe, and in the afternoou
was sent to the asylum at Mi!ledgevilie.
Ihe cause of her insanity is said to be
the loss oi her child, which died sometime
since.

tins cut their didoes in the air. Officer
lienrv Garfield, who is ou liutv at the de
pot, has observed them so often that uo
has noieQ their movements and tells
what they do. Their roost is in the large
mulberry trees near the corner of Fifth
and Pine streets. Kvery morning before
the sun is u n they leave the trees aud soar
upward. When tne trees are emptied
they form in a line and move dlrectlveast
inahal! circle. Officer Garfield thinks
tnev go to the swamps below the oity.
About G o’clock in the evening they re
turn. First only three or lour appear,
probably sent forward to see if the coast
is clear, as they go directly to the trees.
The advance birds do uot leave the tree,
but in a few minutes the flock is heard
and seen coming like a big black line
from the same direction in which
they went away in ‘ the morning.
When they have reached a point
almost directly over the trees, they
gyrate in the air, moving in columns
like soldiers, then rapidly wheeling and
scattering in all directions. To stand
and watch their movements, one Is im
pressed with the idea that the birds are
on an evening frolic. For an hour or
more they chatter and fly about overhead,
and then, as it by command, they cotne
down to the trees, where they settle for
thenisrkt. All night long thev keep up a
chatter in the trees so loud that a conver
sation beneath the t rees can only bo car
ried on with difficulty. They seem never
to stop, for at no time during
night does the noise cease. It
frequently is the case that they are dis
turbed by a brick or rock thrown into the
tree. Several are killed and the noisy
birds leave the tree in a hurry , chatter
ing the more tor being disturbed. After
a while they return to the roost and ap
pear to go back to sleep cursing the dis
turber of their rest.

Apopka’s new hotel is rapidly nearing
completion.
Tho Northern Methodists hope to have
a sanctuary at Apopka at au early day.
The new Congregational church at
Apopka is being pushed forward with a
vim.
Kev. T. J. Bell, of Kissimmee, now has
contracts for six more residences to he
put up at once.
There are rumors of the erection of a
large opera house at Kissimmee as soon
as a suitable site is selected.
According to Dr. Knight’s weekly re
port there were only three deaths In
Jacksonville last week, all colored, of
which number two were under five years
of age.
At Quincy two negro boys attacked a
small hoy, also colored, a few days since,
aud the Mayor gave them $7 50 apiece or
fifteen days on the street. They took the
street as usual.
A negro man living at Mr. Newt Sulli
van’s place near Quincy, went oft to
church, with all of his family, on Wednes
day night last, and when he returned
home all of his earthly possessions had
been consumed by fire.
The case of George H. Stewart vs. J. H.
Durkee, ex-United States Marshal for the
Northern district of Florida, which has
been in court for over two years, has been
decided by giving the plaintiff judgment
for siJ4(if>. The amount sued for was
.$721 50 with interest. The claim was for
services rendered on board the steamer
Peerless at Milton, Fla.
Tom Holland, some times known as
Tom Kelley, was arrested at Pensacola
Wednesday on a warrant charging him
with an assault with intent to murder.
Owing to the precarious condition of his
victim the prisoner has not as yet been
given a preliminary hearing, but the par
ticulars, as far as could be obtained,point
to Holland as a man of most brutal in
stinct, ft being charged that upon tho
slightest provocation be struck a female
over the head with a chair, inflicting a
wound of a dangerous character.
The new briok buildings where the late
fire oesurred on Railroad street, at Pen
sacola, are going up rapidly and this lo
cality presents by 000 per cent, a more
busiiiess like and rileasing appearance.
Perry’s building is completed and occu
pied, the upper story being used as a hall
for the accommodation and use ot colored
organizations. The brick work on Pou’s,
Brosnabara’s. Gharbonier’s, Kipp’s and
Avery’s buildings is completed, the ceil
ing and rooting remains yet to be done.
Fauria’s livery stable will soon he ready
for Mr. Amos Roberts.
The situation ia the First Congressional
district is somewhat mixed. The follow
ing figures may throw some light upon it:
Certain for Davidson: Gadsden 11, Wal
tos a, Polk 8, Levy 5. Calhoun 2, Jackson
8: total 84. Certain for Mallory: Escam
bia IH, Jackson 11, Levy 2, Santa Rosa 8,
Washington 2; total 42. From
Monroe county there are contesting
delegations, that which claims to be the
regular delegation being lor Mallory.
Jefferson’s delegates are uninstructed,
but are more likely to favor Davidson than
Mallory. A majority of the Hernando
delegates are also thought to favor David
son. On the other hand, as between Dav
idson and Mallory, Leon’s votes are likely
to be for Mallory. South Florida will de
cide the question ana may put in a “dark
horse.” The total number of delegates to
the First DistrlctConveMtion is 150. Two
thirds necessary to a choice, 100. Neither
candidate has yet approximated to the
latter figure.
The following counties in tbe Second
Congressional district have been heard
from, and the Dougherty delegates already
elected arc as follows: Alachua IS, Brad
ford 9, Brevard 3, Columbia 10, Daae 1,
Duval 20, Hamilton 7, Madison 11, Nassau
t>, Putnam 9, Suwanee 10, V'olusiaO; total
113. Baker, Clay, Marion, Orange, St.
John’s and Sumter are yet to hear
from. Of these Baker (3 votes)
is claimed to be certainly anti-
Dougherty. Clay (5 votes) is almost
equally certain for Dougherty. Marion
(15 votes) Is an uncertain quantity, but
Dougherty will probably divide the dele
gation anil get at least 7 votes. M. John’s
(7 votes) is also uncertain, but Dough
erty’s chances are not hopeless there.
Orange (20 votes) is pretty sure for
Dougherty, but toe opposition may be
conceded 5 votes, leaving Dougherty 15.
Sumter (11 votes iis conceded to be solid
for Dougherty. The situation Is then as
follows: Previously reported 113, Clay 5,
Marion 7, Orange 15. St. John’s 8,
Sumlcr 11; grand total 154. It is
possible that Marion, Orange and St.
John’s will do better then they are cred
ited with It iu the above estimate, but the
estimate is certainly a safeono. We then
have tiie following showing for the con
vention: Total number of delegates, lHit;
two birds, necessary to elect, 120;
Dougherty’s vote, 154. or 34 more than the
requisite two-thlrds. Even if we divide
Duvals vote, or throw it out altogether,
I lougberty is sure oi tho necessary two
thirds.

A Pet Alligator Mas a t ough Experi
ence with Sliiiill Hoys.
From the M<tc<*n {On,) T> ' graph .
Last Thursday a gnntleman residing in
th# vicinity of Rose Park noticed a crowd
of about twenty boys, none of them old
enough to discard knee pants, trooplug
along in single file drawing some object.
At first tho gentleman thought the hoys
were playing tiro company and wore
drawing a make-believe hose reel, but on
their approach he saw that they had tted
a long string to the pet nlligator that was
recently placed In the fountain basin by
the Telegraph. The ’gator had escap il
from the basin and the boys nnd recap
tured him several blocks away and had
adopted this method ot returning bltu.
They oarried the 'gator, which is a trac
tion over two feet long, to the fouplain,
hut liugiii'.'U arouuU it for some tune. Tue
SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY. JULY 27. 1886.
gentlemau wondered at their staying o
long, but, supposing that they w< r watch
ing the pet sport in tne water, did not ap
proach them. But on the following day
he noticed that one ot the big artificial
swans kept near the fountain instead of
swimming around the basin with Its mate.
Saturday he looked and saw that the swan
had not changed position. Ou Sunday,
having nothing to do, he went to the foun
tain aud endeavored to discover the cause.
A small boy came up at the time, and in
confidence explained the swan’s conduct.
The boys had tied the’gator’s tail tethe
swan for the purpose of seeing the ’gator
pull the swan around in the basin. Sev
eral gentlemen came up at tlie time, and
by putting a long bench in the bnsin they
were enabled to reach the fountain so ns
to detach the swan. Here another dis
covery was made. The ’gator had gone
rouud and round with the swan until he
had wrapped himself hard and fast
around the pipe beneath the fountain, so
that ho could not rise to the surface, as
was his wont, for fresh air.
Having detached him from the pipe and
the swan, still another discovery was
made. The boys had wrapped a string
around the long mouth of the ’gator, so
that it was impossible for him to open It,
and thus for four days the ’gator had
lived under the water, unable to rise or
open its mouth.
When the string was unwound from his
mouth he opened it a number of times as
wide as his jaws would permit, at the
same time barking like a dog iu joy over
his deliverance.
The boys who did the cruel trick are
known,and if the ’gator is disturbed again
they will he turned over to their respec
tive parents to be well switched, and on
tailing to get this punishment will be kept
in the barracks four days with their
mouths well wrapped with twine.
The Orbs’ Peculiar Glare.
From the Athena (0. 1.) Banner- Watchman-
On Wednesday last, just at the hour of
noon, the bright, scorching rays ol the
sun, which had been coming down with
such unrelenting tury all the forenoon,
suddenly changed to a pale, golden
hue, which cast a weird, lonesome feel
ing on those who noticed it, and mauy of
the more superstitious watched the seem
ing phenomenon with a feeling oi awe
which was nearly related to absolute fenr,
for they could see the great orb, usually
so bright, with the naked eye as through
a smoked glass, and the nearer the ap
proach to twilight the larger it became,
until finally Old Sol sank, like a crimson
ball, beneath the western horizon, leaving
the sky and the trees the same weird hue,
only gloomier, winch it had shed on the
latter during the day, and the world left
in doubt as to his strange actions. Many
thought that an eclipse had oc cured and
tried to see it. but in vain, while others
thought it was a prognosticator ot things
terrible and awful. One person remarked
that lor the space of an hour, by actual
watch, the shadow of the sun did not
move a particle. But the writer thinks
that as Joshua has been dead for several
years, and there were no other persons
now living to whom Old Sol owed alle
giance, it must have been the lurid imagi
nations of a lonesome brain. But this was
not all, for no sooner had the sun disap
peared in the west than a glance to the
east showed a sight which made these
superstitious watchers almost tremble
with horrible fear. Just above the bills,
the moon, as il just bathed in a sea of
blood, came climbing up the skies, and its
pale, red rays, cast o’er the earth, made
things and beings appear as if covered
with the glare of a volcano,
while the vivid and quiok Hashes of light
ning made the scene more fearful still.
This scene was watched until the low
hung clouds o’ersbudowed the sky, and
buried the face of this great red orb from
sight and washed the earth with one ot
the heaviest rains that has fallen in many
days.
. Tlie Sliauty Craze.
From, the Columbia* (Ga,) E n<]oarer-Sun.
“Westward is the tide of immigration*’
was the universal cry a few years ago,
but a great many people went West who
would like awluily much to tread again
the old red hills ot Georgia. The ex
perience of these Western immigrants is
bound to be the experience of the capi
talists of Columbus who have caught on
to the shanty craze and Invest their
money in $2 50 tenant houses. The city is
already overcrowded with them, and by
actual count there are over 100 vacant,
yet there are men who go on building j
them all the same. What will be the re
suit? The men who put their money in i
them will simply be sorry they hadn't i
built better houses.
There is to-day in Columbus a big de- ]
mand lor decent and comfortable resi- 1
deuces. In fact, the demand is much
greater than the supply. We would quote
the rental demanded for the tew desirable
houses that are offered for rent, hut we
actually tear it might keen some people
trom coming to the city were they to see
the figures. Let the men who have money
to invest in this way build a class of
houses that will not only readily rent, but
will improve the appearance of the city,
‘and at the same time offer inducements to
people to come here and live. Somebody
will get hurt by this shanty craze if it is
uot checked.
Can’t Stand It.
From the Athene C Ga.) Banner- Watchman.
.Air. E. E. Jonos, of the firm of Maddrey
& Jones, is one of the cleverest men in our
eitv, and oiten when we are Lard up for
local news he comes to our relief with
plenty of copy. lCd, however, has caused
us a great deal of trouble. Sometime
since be put a little notice in the Banner-
Watchman that an ice machine was In
course of invention at the Commercial
Hotel iu our city which would revolution
ize the woild. This machine, he repre
sented, only hud to have abucketof wuter
aud a small amount ol machinery, and
with a handful of shavings to start a fire,
that any family, however small or large,
could grind out ice In any quantity to suit
the occasion. This little notice has been
the rounds of the press and the
Banner-Watchman has been the reci
pient of no less than a million 1
letters inquiring about the machine.
Extra help hud to be employed to answer |
the correspondence, and lately the stumps j
have beuu takeu off the envelopes lor !
answers, and the letters tiled away. Every
horse, buggy, railroad and steamboat :
mail brings more < >r less letters asking |
about the ice machine. The only answer |
we can make is that the inventor is still !
at work on the machine, and all commu
nicutious should be addressed to K. E. I

have got enough of it.
An Alligator Miows Fight.
Last Friday -Mr. Cullen Hargrove, of
Sumter county, heard some negroes yell
ilix and causing a disturbancel# bis cot
ton field, and calling to two or three be
gin men who were with him, tuey pro
ceeded to the scone of disturbance, and
found that a huge alligator was the cause.
Il wanted to fight, aud as the parties had
uo weapon the ’gatorcould make a charge
aud they would have to retreat before his
formidable display of mouth armed w 'h
teeth. A lucky throw knocked out an
cyu lor the suanan, and all parties made
a ohargn, armed with hex s, fence
rails, eto., nnd the brute was stunned.
The body was drawn to tfm house, half a
mile off, the head cut off, an I left until
night. When the crowd gain, rod around

A NEW CATTT.i: KANGE.
The Plateau ot I tali ami Nevada
Oponinif.
From the San Francisco Rullettn.
The great plateau between the Bocky
Mountains and the Sierra, comprising the
Territory of Utah aud the-State of Nevada,
Is apparently destined to become the
greatest cattle range in the country.
Already immense tracts ot land, some
embracing nearly 250,000 acres, have been
purchased, and owners of large herds in
Texas and other Southwestern States are
looking for ranges In this wide sec
tion of natural pasture laud. The
pressure of settlers, who wish to
engage in agriculture and found homes
upon the lands in the great fertile plains
ot the West and South, has begun to
crowd out the cattle kings, who have for
years monopolized the largest part of the
States which by nature are better fitted
for the raising oferops than for the pas
turage of herds. Thus there has begun a
hegira of cattlemen toward the West,
w'hieh bids fair to aid materially in the
development of those great sections of our
country that have hitherto been left al
most exclusively in the hands of Indians
aud peripatetic gold hunters. This move
ment of stockmen toward the West is a
matter ot considerable importance to
the people of ibis coast, for the
region which will be appropriated by
them is by nature tributary to California,
which should be benefited by tbo estab
lishment of great moneyed interests in a
locality from which up to this time little
benefit, compared with the extent of
country, has been derived. The cattle
men are also the precursors of the hus
bandman, who, when a country has be
come to some extentsettled, would readi
ly seek in it opportunities for agricul
ture; and it may' confidently be expected
that there will, before many years are
passed, be more agricultural laud discov
ered in Utah and Novada than has been
believed to exist there.

AT KROUSKOFF'S
Mammoth Millinery House
It is always expected to find the most complete Millinery
Stock, but this season excels it. The stock in line ftprillg
and Slimmer Millinery is immense, and we are retailing
on our first floor at wholesale prices, which is a saving of 30
to 40 per cent. In other words, the patrons of KKOUS
KOFF’S pay no more for their Millinery than the same
goods would cost to the largest retailers hero.
It should also be considered that ladies are not restricted
in their selections to such limited stocks as arc found else
where, but can make their choice from an almost endless
variety of shapes in fine and medium grades—white, black,
and colored —lor ladies, misses, and boys.
Our lines of Flowers, Tips, Flumes, etc., are in the
same proportion.
Our Trimmed Hats, to look at them, would delight
you, and to price them would gladden the hearts of those who
love to save their dollars. We continue the sale of our
Ribbons at same prices heretofore.
