Our Special Edition.
During the ensuing week we shall begin work
in eurnest upon our special trade edition. In or
der to get out such a paper as we desire to make
this, will require much hard work and time. In
our efforts to do this, it is necessary to have the
co-operation of our enterprising citizens, and
they can greatly facilitate the work by making
up their minds as to the amount of Bpace they
desire to use in advertising their business and
fhrnishing our canvassers with their orders with
out delay. So far orders have been given more
liberally than the most sanguine might have ex
pected. A column and half columu is no rarity,
while orders have already been received
Ipttoveral columns from a single Arm. We have
no complaint to make, no reason for complaint,
as there are but two business houses that have
declined the use of this special edition. One of
these will remove from the city, and the other
didn’t know yet what he might do.
Our canvassers will be out during the week,
>ut in the meantime all orders left at the office
will receive prompt attention. It will be impos
sible to see all, and it is our desire to have every
business house in the city represented. The
paper will be issued about the first of October.

GEORGIA MIDLAND ECHOES.
The First Locomotive in llerr—How the Track Lay
ing Ik ProgrcNKlng—Collecting the Notes, Etc.
Thirty more hands have been put on the track
laying squad and will begin work in earnest
Monday.
This force will, with others- now here, follow
the track laying gang surfacing the road.
So work will go with a vim thiB week, and as
the help improves each clay, will soon reach a
mile a day.
There are fifteen thousand crossties on the
Bides of the Midland road in a mile of the city,
and are airiving two trains daily.
The first locomotive arrived yesterday. It is one
of the latest Baldwin improved engines-solid
guide bars, asbestos lagging, Albrecht’s box and
all other modern appliances.
It is a fifty ton affair and is now being put in
running order by the engineer sent out by the
works. It will be on the Midland road Tuesday
morning.
It is now almost certain the entire grading this
side the mountain will be finished by November
15.
There are four contractors now at work on the
other side, and they are making a good record.
Chief Engineer Greene has been in Griffin this
week locating the line through New Orleans
street.
This is a new line in that city. Directors Kin
caid and Grantland have been largely instru
mental in getting this road line adopted.
Mr. Lumley, the tunnel contractor, is in the
city. He feels confident he will finish that work
by December 15.
There are eight new buildings about ready to
go up in Woodbury. Building has also begun at
Shiloh.
Six hundred tons of rails were shipped to the
Midland the past week. Several car loads of
angle plates have also arrived.
The collector is gathering in the shekels for the
first installment notes. Subscribers could help
the road and facilitate the collection by calling
at the National Bank of Columbus and paying
their matured notes.
The documenU for the iron bridge are here.
This structure will soon arrive. A force of ex
perts will be sent out to put it in position.
Gotten will soon be hauled to Columbus over
the new road. Didn’t we tell you so?
Shooting at a Negro.
LaBt night Lee Horace, colored, went into Mr.
Harry Daniel’s store, on Tenth street, and raised
a difficulty with another negro. Mr. Jas. Starke,
the clerk, ordered him to keep quiet. This
seemod to enrage the negro, and he struck at Mr.
Starke with a stick, whereupon the latter
pioked up a pistol and fired at his assailant. The
ball missed its mark and the negro took to
his heels and left for parts unknown. Horace is
a very bad and insolent negro, and Mr. Starke
was perfectly justifiable in shooting at him.

re juested to be present, as it will he the last

The Knights of Labor Festival.
The attendance at the Knights of Labor festi
val last night was simply immense. The hall
would not accommodate the crowd. No enter
tainment (f the kind was ever so liberally pat
ronized in this city. Everybody had a good
time and nothing occurred to mar the pleasure
of the occasion. It has been decided to con
tinue the festival Monday and Tuesday nights.
All articles remaining on hand at the close Tues
day night will be sold at auction.
Muscogee Sunday School Association.
The Muscogee County Sunday School Associa
tion held a mass meetiug at Pierce Chapel yes

zer, A. M. Brannon, W. A. Bedell, T. J. Pearce,
J. W. Cargill, G. E. Thomas, jr., and Secretary

be held with Sbiloh and Mt. Zion on Saturday
before the first Sunday in November.

In another column of this paper appears the
advertisement of the oldest and one of the

French Mill in cry.
Mr. Adolphe Lequin, in New York, assisted by
Mrs. Alexandre, the fashionable French milliner,

cheaper than anybody else. Having to buy for
twelve houses they buy in larger quantities than
any other dealer, and pay “spot cash” for their

they can save you money? All we ask is to give
us a trial.

Fair and square dealing, coupled with courte
ous and prompt attention, promised to every in-
habitant of Columbus and surrounding country
that favor the Central Drug- Store, Evans &
Howard, proprietors, with their patronage. We
are never too busy to give information or show
our goods, whether you buy or not. In the last
few days we have received a lot of the prettiest
and best made Tooth Brushes to be obtained,
specially imported for our trade. So much
trouble is experienced from the bristles coming
out of brushes. In the one we are offering this
objection is obviated.
We are now headquarters for the Oakley Soap
and Perfhmery Company, and have on display a
magnificent line of their goods we are selling at
living prices. Our stock of Hair, Tocth, Nail and
Scrubbing Brushes, Ivor}*, Celluloid, Rubber and
Horn Combs, Whisp Brooms, Clothes and Black
ing Brushes and Polishers is very complete—
every style, make and price always on hand. We
stock every new preparation in the Drug, Chemi
cal, Patent Medicine, Perfrime, Soap or Toilet
line as soon as brought to notice. Many articles
can be found in our varied stock that cannot be
obtained from other sources.
To the smoking public let us say we have re
cently received large additions to this depart
ment, and we think there is no stock of Cigars
in this section equal in quality to ours.
Recent heavy additions to our Toilet Goods

For Male At Waverly Hull, Georgia.
We will offer for sale on October 15tli, 1886, at
the above mentioned place, immediately on the
line of the Georgia Midland and Gulf railroad (a
new road that is being built from Columbus to
Athens, Ga., connecting with the Central, East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia, Richmond and
Danville railroads). Lots suitable for building
residences, stores, etc. Waverly Hall is situated In
the ‘‘garden spot” of Georgia, farming lands
yielding above an average. The best school and
church advantages already established. Society
is as good as any city in Georgia or elsewhere.
People are alive to anything progressive, and
willing to lend a helping hand to any who may
locate in our midst. It is one of the best trade
point* in Harris county, being thickly populated
already, and only needs the new railroad now
being built to make it the nicest town in the state.
Healthfulness of the place is unexcelled. Water
the best. Between 2500 and 5000 bales of cotton
will be shipped from this point coming season.
This alone will be worth the consideration of
thoughtfhl business men who wish to do a good
business without having any heavy expense. To
those who wish to give their children the very
best educational advantages, our people especial
ly ask them to come and locate among us. All
parents are well aware of the advantage of edu
cating their children in the country than in the
cities in a moral point of view. Any further in-*

The late Silas D. Montgomery, of South Shafts-
bury, Vt., took out policy No. 107,145 in the Mutu
al Life in 1870. The policy became a claim last
spring and appears in the list of June 18. The
face of the policy was for $1000, and the additions
amounted to $407, or only $35.20 less than the
total amount of premiums which had been paid
on the policy. Insurance for sixteen years, and
$1000 to the estate of the insured, cost therefore
$2.20 per year.
In January, 1885, Dr. George W. Blake, of lowei
Salem, Washington county, O., took out policy
No. 259,230 in thiB company for $1000, paying one
annual premium of $31.80. On June 10, 1885, he
died. In August the company paid his wife
$1002. Within eight months from the time the
policy was issued, Mrs. Blake had received from
the company $1002, which had cost her husband
$31.80.
Joseph B. Barnes, a farmer of Northampton
county, N. C., had paid but one premium of $57.99
on his policy of $1500. At the time of his death
last week, his heirs received $1508, as the fruits of
this small investment.
In 1881, John H. Young, of Beverly, Massachu
setts, insured his life in this company for $2000.
He allowed his dividends to accumulate, and last
week his widow received $3558 as the result of his
loving foresight.
Dr. George P. Barnes, of Bristol, R. I., secured
a policy in this company fbr $3000, on the fire-
year distribution plan, July 1, 1885. On the third
day of last October he was stricken by heart dis
ease, and died as though he had been shot.
This happened in Dresden, Germany, while he
was on his wedding trip; and last week the frill
amount of the claim, on which but one premium
had been paid, was handed to the young wife
and widow.
In this week’s list of paid claims appears the
name of George N. Walker, a prominent citizen
of Peoria, 111. In 1848 Mr. Walker took a $3000
ordinary life policy in this Company. It cost
him $75 a year, and he kept it paid up until the
day of his death. The accumulated dividends
nearly equal the face value of the policy aud the
total claim paid to Mrs. Walker is $5727.
