It is understood that a Macon party is
figuring on a new hotel for Indian Spring,
and if possible will have it lit operation
next season. It is to have about fifty
rooms, furnished with modern furniture,
electric bells, etc., and built with a special
view to the comfort and entertainment of
guests. A site has been bargained for, and
efforts are being made to carry out the en
terprise to completion.
Last Thursday and Friday, Van’s creek
Baptist church, situated at Buckersville,
near Elberton, held its centennial celebra
tion. The church was organized in 1785,
but for some reason the celebration was
S ostponed to this year. Hon. Elbert M.
ucker, of Anderson, S. C., delivered an
address on the history of the church and
Rev. C. D. Campbell, of Athens, Ga., an
address on the progress of the Baptist
church in the last hundred years. Three
ministers served Van’s creek church all
the time from 1785 to 1871. They were
Revs. Dozier Thornton, Frank Calloway
and Asa Chandler.
Charles Ramsey, a white stevedore, shot
his daughter, Jennie, at his house on the
corner of Lincoln and Bay-street lane, in
Savanm h, Friday night. The pistol shot
took effect in her arm, which being raised
suddenly, prevented it from entering her
breast, ana probably saved her from in
stant death. She is painfully wounded,
but she will doubtless recover. There is
some mystery connected with the affair,
though Ramsey’s friends claim that the
girl was mistaken for a burglar.
A fire broke out nt 1 oo’loek Saturday
evening in the uarjvo of the British steam
ship Lancaster, which was just finishing
loading 5400 bales of cotton at the Central
cotton press at Savannah. The hatches
were closed and the fire department sum
moned. After water had been pumped
into the hold for three hours, the fire was
got under control. The amount of damage
to the cargo and vessel has not yet been
ascertained. The origin of the fire is in
volved in mystery.
Further particulars of the dynamite ex
plosion in Franklin county, Wednesday
night, show that Senator-elect Lewis
Davis is badly hurt. He was standing
near the court house in Carnesville talk
ing to a crowd of gentlemen when the
bomb or cartridge was thrown in
the square. It carried a lighted fuse and
several of the party advanced toward it to
see what it was. The explosion which fol
lowed was terrific, shattering windows and
breaking lamps for whole blocks. Senator
Davis was picked up blackened, bruised
and senseless. He was restored to con
sciousness, and is now doing very well.
Another member of the party was hurt.
It is believed the bomb was thrown by
some enthusiastic voter, and not intended

drunk and began swearing at the negro.
The negro told him to hush. Then they
quarreled a little, when Chastain attacked
the negro withl his knife, inflicting two

The negro died shortly afterwards. Chas

erected in the most substantial and convenient manner. It is simple in construction, and so well
illustrated by the cut, that scarcely a word is needed by way of explanation, being simply an
Iron Screw m»«l Nut substituted for wood, the wood work of its construction, and the manner
of operating it, are substar stantially the same as in the old style of wooden plantation screw, but
the timbers required are not so heavy or long. Most planters of experience prefer the wooden screw
to any of the more modern Cotton Presses in use, but the difficulty and uncertainty of controlling
labor and mechanical skill in the season of the year most convenient to the planter for their erec
tion, usually renders it a matter of economy, as well as necessity, with him, to buy some kind ol
Press that requires but little mechanical skill to put it in operation. “Golden** Norow,’* is a
sort of compromise between the old style of wooden screw anil the modern Cotton Press, combining
the principal advantages of the former with the convenience and economy of the latter. It can be
operated with greater facility than the wooden screw, and the rapidity of its performance, like that
of the wooden screw, or any other press, depends upon its management—as on the old style screws
some planters would pack ten hales, and others thirty or thirty-five bales per day. Any ordinary
mechanic who can make a good plantation gate, or common plow stock, can do the wood work.
Within the last eleven years we have made and sold a great many of these screws, and have yet
to hear of the first one that has not given entire satisfaction.
We furnish all the Iron Work for these Screws, of which we make two sizes, und frilly warranted.
