by entertaining a large number of lit tie friends

Tan Negroes Fight.
Moses Beck and Sam Henderson, two negroes |
en.pl'\ed ns draymen by Mr. Dick Howard, had j
a fight at the depot yesterday. Sam pulled his
little knife and cut Moses on the hand, and i
Mom?k retaliated by hitting Sam with a piece of j
iron. They were both pulled by Policem:
Adams, and Mayor Grimes will consider tin

objectionable about them, but simply to refer to
1 a s( mion preju h d on the subject by Rev. R. If.
Harris at the First Baptist church, Sunday moru-
I uing to a v< ry large congregation.
J Rev. Mr. Harris began by referring to the inter-
est which is being manifested in the condition of
j the young men, and said he was fully in sympa-
i thy with any movement that looked to their
moiftl and spiritual advancement. He wanted,
however, to say that the young men of this
country are not half.so bad as some people seem
to think. From an intimate acquaintance with
them he had found that they were warm-hearted
noble and manly, and were noj depraved and*
moral wrecks. He did ntv hesitate to say
that there is more hope' for the young
men of t his country than for the old men. Young
men arc more susceptible of good influences. OKI
men ate hardened in their ways, and are difficult
to reach. He said: “Where are the old men to
day? As I look out upon this large congregation,
I see not more than a dozen gray heads before
me, and some of them are not gray from age. I
will tell you where they are. (Jo walk down
Broad street now and you will find groups of

Yesterday morning before day a party of
trifling negro boys laid in wait up town for the
purpose of attacking Amos Wilson, colored.
They were raided by inounte I officers Green and
Duncan and three or four of them captured and
run in. At the mayor’s cmrt they were given
live days each on the: chain gang by Mayor
The Broad S tree I Revival.
Another large congregation attended the ser-
Vk » sat Broad Street Methodist church last night.
Rev. .J. W. Domingos preached an interesting
sermon, wliioh was well received. Rev. Walker
Lewis and Rev. G. G. N. Macdonell were* present
and assisted in the services. There were three
conversions and one accession to the church.
Services will beheld again this morning at 8
<^Ufi>ck and to-night at 7:45.
Colored Whisk) Crooks.Iuirged.
A correspondent writing from Opelika says:
“Austin I’hilips, Ham Harris, John Kludge and
Dave Williams, four negroes about town, were
yanked from their beds this morning, about l
o’clock, by Chief of Police Yarbrough. Some
days since jugs containing whisky were found
concealed beneath tin* platform of the freight
depot. This discovery led to the arrest of these
negroes and Chief Yarbrough thinks sufficient
evidence can be brought against them to convict
them of selling the whisky outright or making a
mutual exchange. It will be remembered that
Opelika is dry.”

Flth Parlor Conference.
The fifth of these conferences was held
evening at the residence of Dr. N. P. Banks
Third avenue. The discussion of the topic
more full and free than at any former gatheri
and many now facts and local statistics u
brought forward. The thoughtful discuss!
which have taken pluc* in all these conferee
cannot be productive of other than excellent
Hilts in the near future. The work for and am
men has been placed prominently before som
our people, and they have seen the wisdon

and old ladies, too, who are stumbling blocks in
the way of the young. They are trying to live
upright lives outside of the church, and are mis
leading the young. The remedy for this wrong
is in the bands of the churches. Church members
are doing little to bring these people to
the Lord. We should go to them and urge them
to come. We are commanded to go out and
compel them to come. If they rebuff you the
first time, try them again. There are very few
men or women who are so hardened that they
would take offense at your overtures. Let the
church members do their duty and this great
question of what shall we do for the young men,
and the old men, too, will be answered.”

The candidates are not saying anything above
a whisper worth mentioning. Clayton still leads
I in the gubernatorial race. Dawson’s friend*-
claim that he is the favorite candidate, but we
observe that Clayton has the greatest number of
delegates instructed to vote for him.
There have been several counties heard from in
I the last day *,*r two. The friends ofGeneral Clay*
I ton have information that Washington county
delegates and a majority of the delegates tYojii
Clark county are for him, and they hasten to iet
the fact Ik: made known. The delegates from
! Macon county were selected at the Tuskegce con
vention Saturday. It is stated that five of them
; have expressed a preference for Clayton, two for
| Dawson, and two uncommitted, probably for Mc-
Kleroy. The convention at Lawrence instructed
for McKleroy, and Marengo county instructed
for Seay. It is getting time for Mr. Seay to have
| a delegate or two.
TUB TUSK.EG HE CONVENTION
had a time of it securing the nomination of coun
ty officers. On the 37fttli ballot Waddy Thomp
son, Esq., was nominated judge of probate by ac
clamation. Under the plan of balloting t hree
times and dropping the lowest candidate each of
the other candidates had pitted their strength
against him and been defeated. It was conse
quently moved that Thompson should be nomi
nated by acclamation, and the nomination en
sued; although according to the plan under
which they weae working, a candidate having
tried his strength could again be placed in nomi
nation, and if the friends of the other candidates
had seen proper they could have blocked the*
convention completely. But after balloting for
three days, and Thompson being evidently the
choice of the convention, the fViends of the other
gentlemen magnanimously accorded him a nom
ination l\v acclamation.
No other name being placed before the conven
tion, W. H. Rooney was nominated circuit clerk
by acclamation.
The names of General C. J. Bryan and O. Hug
gins were placed in nomination for representa
tive. After the eleventh ballot Mr. Huggins
withdrew and General Bryan was nominated by
acclamat ion. Each of the gentlemen, in answer
to calls, addressed the con vention in an eloquent
manner.
No other nominations having to bo made, the
following were selected by the convention as
delegates to the state convention: W. F. Foster,
W. T. Ii. Lynch, C. M. Boyd, R. H. Abercrombie,
J. W. Huttleston, John Lynch, W. T. McDowell,
L. ( ’. Ramsey, J. S. Baxley.
The Marengo county convention met Saturday
at Linden. A telegram unnnuncing the nomina
tion of J. W. Taylor for re-election as probate
judge was hailed there with booming cannon.
W. H. Taylor was nominated for senator, J. II.
Mingo and J. W. Jones for representatives.
Mr. TL M. Crowder, of Salem, has announced
himself as a candidate for the judge of probate
for Ijeo county. Mr. Crowder makes the eighth
candidate for this office in our county.

Box Springs, May IK, 1886. -The terrible
wind and sand storm of Saturday even- ;
ing has been followed by refreshing showers j
thi- morning. We have heard of no very serious i
damages ns the result of the storm in this locali
ty, lliongh fears were entertained that the sec- '
t i* *ii north of us had been visited by adcvastuting\ I
cyclone. The dark cloud viewed from this point ;
seemed to devide itself, the main volume passing I
north of us and moved with great velocity, while !
south an >ther passed which seemed to gather
fury as it wont, forming a cyclone which swooped
down into the dim forest s in several places, leav
ing a clear track from one to two hundred yards
wide where it struck.
It blew a terrific gale here and for a short time
was very exciting. A goodly portion of the
ladies and gentry of this community had gat li
en*.1 on Gpa oie creek near here enjoying an old-
fashioned I: n fi v, until driven by the threatening
Carroll County Times.

POLITICAL PRATTLE.
Pointers in the contest for congress in this dis
trict clearly indicate the nomination of Judge
Lain on first ballot. He will go into the conven
tion with delegates favoring his nomination from
Cobb and the six counties comprising his judicial
circuit—eighteen votes. Seventeen and a frac
tion will nominate, unless the two-thirds rule be
adopted. There Is no reason or necessity for or
fairness in such rule. It generally operates to
defeat the will of the people.—Calhoun Times.

A novel use i.-, made of the sterooseopo to
d»*tei*t forged Lank notes. A note of 100
francs was reeently submitted to the ex
perts of the hank of Franco as issued by a
{.and of forgers, but the execution was" so
perfect that no defect could be discovered
by the closest examination. A suggestion
was then made to.place the suspected note
side by side with a genuine one in the ob
jective of a sterescope, the two images of
which, iis is well known, overlay each
other and form a single picture. l 4 he re- ;
suit of the experiment was that the loop in
a letter of the forced note did not exactly j
cover that of the genuine one, showing
that they had not been printed from the |
same plate.

TVliere is I: ami What is It?
Twenty miles front our city upon the Columbus
and R jine railroad at Kingshoro, situated on the :
most beautiful and picturesque portion of Mill- j
' berry creek, only 300 yards front the station, is
j “where.”
The description of “what" must be more
j lengthy. The management of the Columbus and !
| Rome railway, appreciating the fact that a nice
; picnic grounds was a necessity to accommodate
the growing wants of the people of Columbus and j
; stations on its road, have, at quite an expense,
| purchased a beautiful grove of three acres, on |
1 which they have had erected a large dancing
platform 30x57 feet, with band-stand attached, i
! Seats have also been placed in different parts of !
the grounds and the place otherwise improved, j
: Views and scenery fine (’’daisy”), old mill in dis
tance, mill-pond fish. What more could you 1
ask? All that is needed to complete the pic
ture is the bright anil beautiful faces of sweet
maidens and gallant beaux. A day in the woods,
a moonlight picnic—who will open the season?
Special rates and extra car to clubs of twenty-five |
or more; speial rates and extra trains to large j
parties. For further information apply to
