two performances. The Montgomery Dispatch
of yesterday says:
“Despite the inclemency of the weather on last
evening, a good house turned out to hear the
Bijous at the Montgomery theatre in the splen
did new opera, ‘A Bridal Yrap.’ Scarcely, if ever,
have the people of Montgomery enjoyed a more
pleasing entertainment.
“The rendering of 'Rosette'by Miss Adelaide
Randall was magnificent. She was several times
greeted with deafening applause by her appre
ciative and enraptured audience.
“Miss Randall was ably assisted by her sister,
Miss Clara Randal), in the role of'Marion.’
“Hairy F. Dixie, as ‘TToutelord,” kept the
audience in an uproar of laughter from his first
appearance till the curtain dropped on the lost
act. In fact, every part was well aoted and the
company scored another success.”
The Devil’s Anctiou.

lie has made a brilliant rneo against strong odds
and we congratulate him, and also congratulate
the legislature on their wise choice and the peo
ple of the circuit that they will find in him the
elements that will make for them a fine state's
attorney. His opponents for the place were all
able and weli qualified, and it is no small victory
he has gained. His hundreds of friends in Tal
bot rejoiec over his triumph. He will fill the
place with credit and honor.”
Hold Robberies In Talbot.
The Talbotton New Era, of yesterda t % has the
following uotice of two robberies perpetrated in
Talbot county:
“Mr. B. M. Hal, one of our most enterprising
young fanners, was robbed of $480 on Sunday
might last. He bad just sold cotton in Columbus
•ad placed the money in his trunk in his loom.
On Sunday night the room was entered and the
trank taken out and carried several hundred
yards to the gin bouse, where it was broken open
and rifled of its contents. The loss falls heavily
on Mr Hall. No clue to the perpetrators.

Sun : In a recent issue of your paper you kindly
alluded to au operation I performed some three
years ago, but as the statement is at slight va
riance with the facts, I beg your indulgence for a
correction.
The operation is kuowu in dental surgery as
transplantation, i. e., the removal of,a tooth
from the mouth of a living subject and placing At
in the mouth of another. This 1 did on tfye,8th
of September, 1883, for Mr. J. G. Truitt, of this
city, a gentleman widely and favorably known in
commercial circles, and not for Mr. Jim Truett,of
Harris county, as you slate.
Nor was this operation undertaken at the sug
gestion of any professional gentlemen in Colum
bus, but purely on my own motion.
I correct this part of your statement simply in
justice to myself, and not with any desire to de
tract from the deservedly high reputation of
some of your operators— notably among whom it
afford* me p easure to mention the names of
such gentlemen as Drs. G. W. McElhaney and C.
T. Osborn.
Siuce this operation was performed, 1 have

Robert Bray, a youth who resides at the White
Sulphur Springs, came down to the city yester
day for the purpose of having a wound in his
hand dressed. He had been tampering with a
hammerless old pistol which he accidentally dis
charged and the ball passed through the palm of
his hand. Dr. Seth N. Jordan dressed the wound
and found it necessary to remove several frag

is to leave a pistol alone -especially an old and
rusty one.

At the residence of the bride’s parents at
Riley’s station, yesterday at 12 o’clock, Mr. A. M.
McQebee and Miss Nora Peters were united in

The premiers and ballets met with great favor, conspicuous for its i
and were simply grand. The contortionist is
very fine. The acrobat marvellous, anil the
costumes gorgeous. The spectacular portion ot
‘The Devil’s Auction' is grand and is the best on

Troup Factory.
President John L. Robertson, of Troup factory,
talked with a LaGrange Bcporter man the Other
day. He says the mill is running right along
and the new machinery is turning out a very
superior article of sheeting, which sells without
any trouble. He thinks a dividend will be de
clared before long. This is encouraging. The Re
porter says : “Only a few months ago Troup fac
tory seemed ‘dead and gone.' The old ma
chinery was worn out and there was
much reluctance to purchase new.
Repairs were needed everywhere, and to add to
the depression from other sources, cotton goods
had poor sale—the world was overstocked. Now
all is changed. President Robertson went to
work with a will to wrench success from the
jaws of disaster. He has now got everything in
motiou, he has stiffened the spinal cords of his
stockholders and enthused them with hope.
While they have waited lie has worked. The re
sult is most fluttering.”
A Hupp) Union of Hearts.
Yesterday at 2 o’clock p. m. at the residence of
tlie bride's father, Judge L. B. Merton, at Pleas
ant Valley, Stewart county, Mr Eugene Bowers
and Miss Ella Morton were united in marriage.
The attendants were:
Mr. Aaron Gordy ami Miss Minnie Morton.
Mr. John T. Lott and Miss Muttie Bowers.
Mr. T. D. Mortou and Miss Berta Overby.
Mr. Sid Grimes and Miss Leila Morton.
The groom is one of Stewart county’s most
prosperous and energetic young farmers and a
deserving and popular young gentleman. The
bride is one of Stewart’s loveliest daughters, pos
sessing many personal charms and rare accom
plishments. The young couple left immediately
for the home of the groom, where to-night they
will be tendered a reception by the groom’s
mother. They have the best wishes of a host of
friends.

AN INVKSfliariON SUGUUSTKH.
The $1000 Railroad Hoad uud That State Official.
Columbus, Ga., November 11.—EnquirukSun:
Mr. George R. Eager, of the M »ri tta and North
Georgia railroad, in a published interview, rays
that he paid a prominent citizen of this state a
boud of the .Marietta and North Georgia railroad
for $1000 for services claimed by said citizen iu
getting Gen. Win. Phillips to let up on that rail
road He further says of that citizen, thu*;
"And later ou he sent me word, that as he was a
state official, he did not liks to negotiate or hold
the bond, and asked me if I would not buy it
from him. 1 finally bought the bond back and
paid him $500 cash for it.”
Mr. Eager says tho bond for $1030 was a rail
road bond. Grant that the “state official” did do
service and received the railroad bond as his pay,
in a legal and honest manner, why did he swap
it for $500 cash, and state that os he was a “state
official” he did not like to ucgociate it ? There is
no law denying any state official, except a rail
road commissioner, tho right to own railroad
bonds and stocks.
The act of 1878-79, approved October 14, 1879, on
page 126, says, that the railroal commissioners
* shall not jointly or severally, or in any way, be
the holders of any railroad stock or bonds, or be
the agent or employe of any railroad company,
or have any iuterest in any way in any railroad,
aud shall so continue during the term of office;
and in case any commissioner becomes disquali
fied in any way, he shall at once remove the dis
qualification or resign, and on failure to to do he
must be suspended from offi.e by the governor
and dealt with as hereinafter provided.”
Now, if that railroad bond was paid over and
received by a state official, as Eager says, then,
if that state official was a railroad commissioner
he became disqualified for bis office by reason
of having a railroad bond, and his disqualifica
tion was of his own will, and he displayed a
great lack of legal knowledge, as the law ap
pointing him seemed not to have been under
stood by him. Eager bought back the railroad
bond from the state official. As the legislature
is inves: igating other parties, on account of
Eager’s interview, is it not right as the reputa
tion of every state official or ex-state official is
concerned in Eager’s charge, that the $1000 rail
road bond payment be investigated?

The New Firm.
We take pleasure in announcing that our store
is now complete, and we hope for and
will appreciate a share of y 0 ur
patronage. With an entire new, clean and first*
class stock, bought for cash and discounted, we
are in a position to offer such inducements as
cannot be had elsewhere. We do not advertise
any Rpecial article, for if we were to undertake to
mention only the specialties kept by us it would
take the whole Enquirer-Sun. Therefore we
respectfully ask you to visit our store and see for
yourself. Oqr tinctures ure all made direct from
fresh drugs, not fluid extracts, and are prepared
by the 1880 Pharmncopear, and no physician need
hesitate to send us his prescriptions, for they will
be filled accurately and just what he prescribes
will be used. Every article in our Prescription
Department has been carefully selected by one
who delights in and will use only the finest that
can be had. Everyone likes to see pretty goods
and when they buy, get new goods, so call and
see us, and we promise you shall be pleased.
Respectfully, Hall St Wheat.
