In nil of the shops the men are working night and day changing the gauge on the ear I and locomotive wheels. An Enquirer-Sun ! reporter went through the yards of the CENTRAL A NO ITS LINKS, and lie saw acres of car trucks scattered around; Home waiting for the wheels to be pressed farther ! on the axles, others ready to go under the cars. The actual time of compressing the wheels is hardly a minute to a truck, but often there is de lay in getting the trucks out from under cars. There are hundreds of new trucks of the right gauge that are being used in place of the old ones, and in the next day or two the roads here will have one-half of their freight cars changed to suit the standard gauge of4 feet 0 inches and three-filths of their passenger coaches ami loco motives. The Central has over 1500 miles to change, and the following is the order and time fixed for it: Judge Frazer, the present encumbent, is a candi date and bis friends are working hard for his re- election. The friends of Colonel Holland are no less sanguine and are equally as energetic in their efforts. Two tickets will be voted in Browne- vilie beat, but those who will support Holland are headed by his name. The delegates elected to-day will meet in coun ty convention next Wednesday and nominate county officers. They will also select delegate** to the state convention. We are told by tho-e who ore posted that the chances are very favora ble for a solid Clayton delegation. LOCAL LACONICS. —Heavy rains fell in the upper part of the county last week, overflowing and washing the low lands considerably. Last Sunday a negro couple beat a fine cow, belonging to Mr. B. A. Clark, of Nance’s district, to death. The matter will be investigated and the parties presented to the grand jury. -Messrs. Willis T. Fortson and T. C.

Mr. Talmage Richards, of Atlanta, is in the city, stopping at the Rankin House. Mr. Rich nrds comes to Columbus in the interest of Delec- talave, a preparation for the teeth, mouth and and gums. This is an entirely new preparation having been on sale in the state for only a few months, but has won its way among the front rank of preparations on its merits alone. It is highly endorsed and ought to meet with a large sale. Dr. Calhoun, tlie eminent oculist of Atlanta, recommends Delectalave in the following com- pli mentary words: Atlanta, Ga., Oct., 17, 1885. Dr. C. T. Brockett: My Dear Sir—It affords me pleasure after a careful examination of the formula of your Delectalave, to bear testimany to its value, and to state that its curative qualities upon a verdict that he came to his death by a j are beyond question. I regard it, as the name lick on the head with a nek thrown by Jody Lcnnihan. A warrant having been sworn out for Lenni- han, charging him with murder, he was arrested, and yesterday afternoon he had a preliminary school to the Muscogee county Sunday school ! before Justices Tucker and Barr.

Rev. W. M. Hayes, of Talbotton, has been ap pointed presiding elder of the Columbus district, vice Rev. J. S. Key, I). D., who has been recently elected bishop. Rev. Mr. Hayes is now stationed at Talbotton. He is comparatively a young man, but is one of the ablest preachers of the South Georgia con ference. The appointment is an honor worthily be stowed, and one which meets the approval of (lie ministers of this city. Slow They Were Pun lulled. For several days past some one had been rock ing the Mobile and Girard passenger train at Hurt shore. Mr. A. H. Stevens, the agent, kept a sharp lookout for the guilty parties, and on Moii- duy he succeeded in capturing four negro boys. He sent for their fathers and asked whether they preferred to give the hoys a severe whipping or that they should he prosecuted. The old men preferred to whip them. The hoys were then stripped, and their fathers gave them a thrashing which they will not soon forget. A leather strap was used, and it was laid on with merciless hands. Clay Pigeon Shooting Yesterday. A clay pigeon shooting contest between about six gentlemen took place at Star park yesterday afternoon. There were two contests and two prizes in each. In the first contest the first prize was won by Henry Moslicll, who broke eight out often. The second prize was won by Sam French, who made six out of a possible ten. In tbe second contest the tirst prize was won by 1’r. Tom Tuggle and tlie second by \V. A. Redd, who made respectively five and four out of ten. HOTEL V K III \ \ l.s. RANKIN IIOt'SK. H. Heyman.

The company, however, gave notice on the 23d inst., ‘that all freight received betweon the 25th of. May and the 2d of June will only be received sub ject to the delay incident to the change of gauge. Agents will not receive perishable freights during this period, unless assured that it can reach des tination without delay, whether said destination is on this company's lines or beyond them. Agents should endorse upon receipts given for any character of freight during the period indi cated, “Received subject to delay incident to change or gauge.’’ Ticket agents are required to keep frilly posted as to the movements of passenger trains and sell no tickets that cannot be used without delay to destination. It is also obligatory* to passengers to ascertain how far they can go upon trains be fore boarding them. THE LOUISVILLK AND NASHVILLE. The Louisville and Nashville system of roads change their gauge on Sunday, May 30. Mr. G. M. Williams, general ticket agent, gives the fol lowing information in regard to the runding of trains on that day: There will be no trains arrive or depart on the Soutli and North Alabama road that day either morniug or night. No train will arrive or depart Sunday morning on the Mobile and Montgomery road, but the train will leave Montgomery as usual Sunday night at 7:30 for Mobile and Now Orleans. The train leaving Montgomery at 8:15 p. m. Saturday, 29th inst., going north, will be discon tinued at Birmingham. The train going south will leave Montgomery as usual at 7:35 p. m. Saturday, but will run spe cial and arrive at Mobile some thirty minutes ahead of schedule time, and then be discon tinued. PBW COMPREHEND TI1K MAGNITUDE of the work to be done in simply changing the gauge of a railroad. The change to be made is simply making the track of southern railroads three inches narrower to conform to what is ac cepted as the standard gauge. Doing that neces sitates a change of the engines and all the rolling stock of a road. To do the work requires an out lay of an immense amount, hut it is anticipated that in time.- a corresponding benefit will come to the railroads. ALABAMA POLITICK.

Henry Vaughn, a little boy about tea years of age, and Sam Dean, a few years older, were the principal witnesses, and from the testimony we give the following account of the sad affair: Jim Martin, son of Mr. U. L. Martin, and George Howard went down to the mouth of Girard crock about 1 o’clock in the afternoon to ilsli. They were joined by Jody Lcnnihan, Henry Vaughn and Sam Dean. About 3:30 o’clock Jim Martin suggested to George that they bad better return. George that he was not ready to go. Jim persisted and took off George’s hat and ran up the bank with it. He then laid it on the ground and told George to come and get it. When George went to get it Jim picked it up and asked Jody Lennihan if he did not want a hat. Jody said yes, and stepped up to where they were standing. Jim took Jody’s bat off his head and put it on George’s head. George took it off and threw it back into Jody’s arms. The hat fell to the ground and .Tody told George to nick it up. George refused, and Jody hit him with his fist. George, who had picked up some rocks, put them down and hit Jody with his hand. ’They then implies, a delightful wash, and can confidently recommend it to the public. Yours truly, A. W. Calhoun, M.

Huff, Agent. A North Carolina Company That Makes it Into Yarn. “Got any news, captain?” asked an Enquirf.r- Sun reporter of Captain G. M. Williams, of the Swiff manufacturing company, yesterday even ing. “Well, yes,” replied the captain. “I’ve got something out at the mill that is new to me. It tvas sent to me by the Acme manufacturing com pany, whose mills are situated near Wilmington, N. C.” “What Is it?” queried the reporter: “It is a yarn made of long leaf pine straw. I never saw anything like it before, and it is an en tirely new use for pine straw. The yarn is some what of the character of jute, and seems to be equally strong. It is said to be fine for bagging, and is also recommended for pillows and mat tresses, as it is claimed to be a remedy for ca- tarrah.” Who ever thought of pino straw being made into yarn or being put to any other use than cov ering Irish potatoes or the stable floor? Indeed, this is an age of progress, and the question is, “What next?” Who knows but what pine straw will yet be made into the bagging that covors every hale of cotton produced in this country?

A silver wedding celebration marks one t h-appiert mile rtom-s through tlu* jo To sonic it is a more joyous occasion than the ■ golden anniversary of marriage. The former is in the heyday of life, while the hnpp.\ couple are in the full fruition of happiness. They see their children around them as yet un.scarred by world- , ]y battles, but with eager hope ready to i nter the earnestness of the fray. Probably many of the same friends who were present at the parents’ wedding are now here to congratulate the chil dren anti hid them God speed. It is seldom that such a celebration is more happily observed than the silver wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Snider on last Monday night. The spacious parlors of their residence, on Stcond avenue, were tilled with neighbors and friend* to share in their joy. The happy couple were the recipients of many costly and handsome presents. At the proper hour refreshments and an elegant supper were served, which added to the joyous ness of the occasion. One who was present said that it reminded him more of a reui wedding than an anniversary. In common with the couple's friends ihe Kx- qyiT-m-vs th-ui F-ng liU- w : th ho-i'th •lid prosperity. .

Why, a large ease or res ervoir tilled with thirty-one barrels of whisky. All of them were properly stamped and bore tbe date of ISdl. It turned out that an old bachelor had lived in the house during the early years of tho c ivil war. Kentucky was constantly being raided by one side or the other, and about 1 Stitt the examined the place where George was hit, and put some turpentine and liniment on it, but did not regard it at all serious. George then went on home, but in about 20 minutes returned and complained of his head hurting him. The doc tor says he went on home with George and that the little fellow complained of such pain that he gave him morphine, but that he did not retain it. George told his father that he believed the pain would kill him. The doctor tried to assure him that he would be all right in the morniug, but the little fellow’s suffering became more intense. Dr. Howard be came alarmed and summoned Dr. Gilbert. Everything was done to relieve the sufferer, but he sank rapidly and died about 1 o’clock in the night from concussion of the brain. George told bis father before dying that ho did not want to fight, but Jody hit him first. Dr. Howard was filled with emotion as he told of how his baby boy had been suddenly snatched from him. The only point of difference lu the testimony for the state was as to the part taken by Jim Martin. Sam Dean and Henry Vaughn testified that Jim had encouraged the two boys to call each other “nick names,” and when they began to fight he hurried away. Jim testified that ho did not know autyliing about tho fight. A. A. Dozier, Esq., appeared for the defense. He said that the line of defense would be that Lennihan was not old enough to bo amenable to the law, and that besides his youthfulness, he had not sufficient intelligence to know right from wrong. He introduced the mother of the child, who testified that he was born on the 6tli of May, 1879, and was consequently only a few days over sex’en years old. She said that her husband died about two years ago and leff her in very destitute cir cumstances. She had been compelled to work every day that she was well enough to earn a livelihood for herself and little children, and had no time to devote to their education. She was unable to send them to school, and what little education Jody had received had been given him by the Sisters of Mercy. Mrs. Clay, a neighbor of Mrs. Lcnnihan, testified in support of her statements. After hearing the testimony the court ad- journed until 8 o’clock this morning, and with held the decision in the case until that time. The scene in the court room was very pathetic. The little* boy who was charged with the awful crime of murder, sat during the whole trial with a look of perfect innocence of the seriousness of the charge*. Dr. Howard sat by him and re marked that lie felt no malice toward the little fellow, and the only interest he felt iu the case was that it might result in benefit to him.
