Death of a Little Boy.
Augustus, the seven-year-old son of Mr. J C.
Culpepper, died Tuesday night and was buried
yesterday. The parents have the sincere sym
pathy of their IVicnds in their sad bereavement
Marriage.
Mr. J. B. Gilbert and Miss Leoln Huffman were
married Tuesday night at the Second Baptist
church at the close of services. Rev. J. W. How
ard performed the ceremony. The parties were
from the Alabama side of the river, and were ac
companied by their friends and relatives.
Done to Birmingham.
Mr. Toombs Crawford and ftimily left yesterday
for Birmingham, which place they expect to
make their home. Columbus regrets to lose
them very much, and Birmingham can congratu
late herself upon a valuable acquisition, both to
her business and social circles.
Burglars at Work.
On Tuesday night burglars entered the house
of Bailie Gwinnett, a white woman residing on
Front street, and stole three trunks from a room
adjoining the one in which she was sleeping.
There were several fine dresses and other val
uable articles in the stolen trunks. The con
tents of the trunks are valued at about $200. The
police were busily at work on the case yesterday.
There is no clue, however, to the perpetrators
of the crime.
The Marion County Cutting.
Yesterday morning the Enquirer-Sun publish
ed a notice of the serious cutting of Mr. Henry
Walls in Marion county by a negro. We learned
yesterday that the negro’s name was Walter
Sherman and that he waa in the employ of Mr.
Walls. After doing the cutting the negro went
for a doctor. Mr. Walls’ wounds are regarded
as very dangerous. He was given a gun just
after he was cut and could have killed the
uegro, but reftised to do so. We were unable to
learn the origin of the difficulty.
F. C. Hangs To-Night.
Bangs will appear at Springer opera house t o*
night as “St. Mark” in “A Soldier of Fortune.’
Bangs is a favorite in Columbus and will draw a
large crowd. The Lynohbvrg Virginian has the
following to m\y of him:
"The great actor, F. 0. Bangs, will appear at
the opera house to-night as “St. Mark” in “A
Soldier of Fortune,” one of his strongest roles.
Mr. Bangs is one of the best uetors on the Ameri
can stage. Those who saw him as “Virginius”
and “Anthony” will not hesitate about going to
see him again, and the opera house will doubt
less hq crowded UMlUghV. 1 *

Personal.
Mr. J. T. Kavanagh returned from New York
yesterday.
Mr. W. E. Mumford, editor of the Talbotton
New Era, is in the city.
Mr. Andrew Gordon, of Montgomery, was in
the city yesterday.
Mr. P. G. Springer will leave to-day for Chatta
nooga, Tenn., where he goes to engage in the
shoe business. We regret to see him leave Co
lumbus, but take great pleasure in commending
him to the good people of Chattanooga.
S. B. Baldwin, Esq., of Talbot county, is in the
city.
Mr. D. P. Dozier and family reterned from the
north last night.
J. J. Bull, Esq., of Talbotton, was in the city
yesterday.
Rev. <\ C. Willis.
Rev. C. O. Willis, of Bethel neighborhood, paid
our sanctum a pleasant visit yesterday. We are
glad to see him looking remarkably well. Age
ami advancing years seem to deal gently with
him, and his spirit seems to have in it all the
freshness of youth, lie speaks of the association
in Talbotton as being a very enjoyable occasion,
and bestows unstinted praise upon the hospi
tality and magnanimity exhibited by the people
of old Talbot. Though he did not say so, yet it
was manifest from the general tone ot his con
versation, that Rev. Mr. Willis regards the com
munity about Bethel os one of the garden spots
of the earth.
Burning of Mr. E. P. Willis' Din House.
Rev. C. C. Willis says the losses sustained by
his son, Mr. E. P. Willis, in the accidental burn
ing of his gin house a few days ago were between
$500 and $1000, and thinks the
tire originated from a match in the cotton,
and not from a spark of the engine, as currently
reported. He says that one of the negro tenants
on Mr. E. P. Willis’ place came to him immedi
ately after the burning of the giu house and re
quested him to charge him up with five dollars
as his contribution towards sustaining the loss of
the tire. Such a spirit as that, when manifested,
necessarily begets for the race, and particularly
for the mau who exhibits it, an increased re
aped.
TIIK DOWN MUST DO.
The Last Bay in Which They Dan Forage on the
Dountryman'H Wagon.
The town cow must go. This is the last day in
which they can run at large in the streets of the
city and forage on the countryman’s wagon. It
will work a hardship on many of our worthy citi
zens, but the general public demanded it and the
aldermen gave it to them. Following is the ordi
nance adopted at the meeting of the city council
on the first Wednesday in August;
“Be it ordained, That from and after October,1
1886, no cattle shall be permitted At night In any
of the streets or parks of the city, and from Oc
tober 1 to April 1 shall bo permitted neither day
or night, except while being driven through the
same; and any cattle found so running at large
shall be impounded by the chief of police, who
shall Advertise and sell the same after giving
three days’ notice of time and place thereof, and
unless the owner shall within that time redeem
the same by paying 50 cents for each head of cat
tle, with 25 cents per day for feeding. When sold
the net proceeds shall bo turned over to the olty
treasurer for account of owner.
“Be it further ordained, That nothing in thin
ordinance shall be construed to prevent the graz
ing of cattle upon any of the commons of the
city.”
THE FIRST OF TIIE SEASON.
The L’AIlegro German Dluk Dives the First
Complimentary German of the Season.
L’Allegro german club opened the social season
last night. The occasion was a german given at
their rooms complimentary to Mr. P. G. Springer,
who leaves for Chattanooga to-day. The weather
and the temperature was all that could have
been desired, and notwithstanding the fact that
many society people are still out of the city, the
attendance was very good. The Italian band
furnished the music, and altogether the occasion
was as enjoyable as could have been desired. It
was a fitting opening of what promises to be a
brilliant season. The following is a list of those
who were present:
Young Ladies—Miss Eason, of Charleston, Miss
Ida Beach, Miss Mary Lave Lowe, Miss Sallic
Peabody, Miss Mattie Wilkerson. Miss Lucy Hill,
Miss Annie Redd, Miss Juliette Hudson, Miss
Bena Bass. Miss Ada French, Miss Carrie John
ston and Mrs. Dr. Johnston.

disappointed.

Hoarding House Chat.
C. w’aR in the end seat at the dinner table and
had already made havoc with a dish of mutton
and divers other dishes, which he managed very
dextrously somehow to keep within easy reach
of his fork. One oftlie joys of C.’s life is to square
hiniHelf across the whole end of a dinner table.
In fact, it may be said of C. that he lives to eat.
Like most good enters. C. is also a good t.alker.
and enjoys that kind of a laugh which shakes
one from top to toe. And C. is never in better
humor for the talk and the laugh than when
about two-thirds through with a hearty dinner,
after the keenest of appetite’s edge has been
taken off find there yet remains something to be
enjoyed.
Ci. said: “Well, this is earthquake day. JIa! ha!
I was driving down town awhile ago and passed
a house where there was quite a concourse of
negroes, and seeing a forlorn-looking darkey
standing hard by, like a sentinel crow set to
watch while the others feasted, I enquired of
him if it was a funeral. ‘No, sab; not dat.’
Prayer meeting, then? I suggested enquiringly.
‘Well, no sah; not dat zackly, and yet dey’se
preyin’, too.’ What for? I asked.
“ ‘Do ycarthquako, sah—de yearthquake.’
“Then, as the boys would say, I caught on. At
first I felt like the man on whom an April fool
has been practiced. I hadn’t thought of Wig
gins and the quake. But here was a vast crowd
on whom Wiggins’ talk and the old woman who
died and came back were having a lively effect.
“My informant asked mo ‘if I thought the quake
was cornin’ sho.’ The spirit of Ned Bruce came
over me and I replied: ‘Yes siree, and you nig
gers had better pray like the d—1, for she’s going
to knock the whole bottom out.’ This I said in
a loud voice, as I noticed several others listening
at a distance, so if possible to eatoh what was to
bo said about the dreadful quake shortly to be
looked for. I heard a half dozen audible groans
and drove away.”
Evidently, C. didn’t intend that the earthquake
should spoil his dinner, even if it came.

Fair and square dealing, coupled with courte

that favor the Central Drug Store, Evans A

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 coining
out of brushes. In the one we are offering this
objection is obviated.
We are now headquarters for the Oakley Soap

magnificent line of their goods we are selling at
living prices. Our stock of Hair, Tocth, Nail and
Scrubbing Brushes, Ivory, Celluloid, Rubber and

Recent heavy additions to our Toilet Goods
