LOCAL LACONICS.
—Patti Rosa will play “Zip" here the latter part
of this week.
—Indications for Georgia: Fair,slightly warmer
weather, northerly winds, veering to easterly.
—Miss Adelaide Randall possesses a voice as
clear as a bell, and is besides a most charming
actress.
—The force at work on the Georgia Midland
tunnel have penetrated Pine mountain a dis
tance of 190 feet.
—The Lumpkin Independent fays: “George
Green will have a preliminary trial before Judge
Kirkscy to-day, for his murderous pssault upon
Mr. George P. Overby week before last.”
—The track laying force of the Georgia Midland
will reach Ellerslie to-morrow. A gentleman in
forms us that he will ship forty bales of cotton

the Hannahatcbee creek is being constructed,
and in a short time trains will be running to
Antioch.
—Hamilton Journal: A matrimonial wave has
certainly struck the queen city of the Chattahoo
chee. Three marriages in one day is unusual
even in a city the size of Columbus. The circle
is widening, and the wave will reach our town in
a few weeks, so says madam rumor.
—What lias become of the surveying party
which left Columbus some weeks ago on the Co
lumbus and Florida route ?—Lumpkin Indepen
dent. They are going right ahead with their

—Russell Register: It has been- reported in
town the past week or two that I)r. Williams
was going to move to Columbus some time soon.
A Register scribe met the doctor on the street
one day this week and asked him if the report
was true. He said that he had not fully decided
but was negotiating for a house, and if he suc
ceeded in getting it he thought it probable he
would move in a few weeks. Dr. Williams has
lived in Seale quite a number of years, and lie
has the confidence and respect of all our people,
notonlvasa high-toned, honorable gentleman, j
but ns a skilled physician, and they, no doubt,
will be loth to give him up.

Will Resign.
The Eufaula Times says that “Dr. G. A. Nun-
si ally will offer his resignation as pastor of the
Baptist church next Sunday morning at confer
ence. This action ou liis part is called forth be
cause of some objection offered to his giving
some of his time, under contract, towards work
ing up an endowment for Howard college. The
church appreciates his labors so much that it is
unwilliug to lose any part of his services. If the
church agrees to allow him to continue his How
ard work the resignat ion will be withdrawn, not
otherwise. This is the best information we can
get and is, probably, entirely reliable. It is be
lieved that the church will be unwilling to give
him up under any circumstances, The confer
ence Sunday will settle that.”
TI10 Bijou Opera Company.
The Bijou Opera Company completed its en
gagement at Springer opera house last night by
the rendition of the “Princess of Trebizonde.”
They gave the ‘Mikado” to a good matinee
audience yesterday afternoon. Miss Adalaidc
Randall, the star, is one of the most bewitching
actresses and possesses one of the sweetest and
Must highly cultivated voices. Her sister, Miss
Ciuru Randall, is also a great favorite iu Colum
bus. She won the hearts of the audience last
night. The “Princess of Trebizonde” is a very
an using opera and furnishes a tine field for the
display of the talents of the Randall sisters. The
entire company is good, and coutaius many fine
voices. Those who attended the performance last
night were delighted.
The Devil's Auction.
The “Devil’s Auction” company will appear at
Springer opera house to-morrow night, and will
be greeted by a large audience. The Brooklyn
Ragle has the following to say of them:
“The potency of the ‘Devil’s Auction,’ as a
drawing attraction, was strikingly exemplified at
the Brooklyn theatre last night, the house being
filled to within a fraction of its capacity. The
’Devil’s Audtion’ has been surcharged with mod
ern acts and specialties, and it found decided fa
vor with the very large audience present. It was
well placed on the stage. The mechanical
scenes, of which there were many, worked per
fectly, and the changes were pleasing surprises,
which were rewarded with applause in every in
stance. The ‘Devil’s Auction’ has been com
mented upon so often by this journal lhat it
needs but little to be said. It is simply great,
and the best spectacular ever produced iu Brook

A Negro Boy Struck by a knife and the Ueiult
May be Serious,
Just one month ago Andrew Goldsmith and
John Wilson, two negro boys, were frolicking
with each other. Andrew playfully threw a
knife at Johu, and it struck him on the leg just
back of and a little above the knee. The wound
was a small and insignificant one, but bled free
ly. Nothing much was thought of it at the time,
but it has assumed u very seriou s feature. The
knife struck a large artery, and a blood clot form
ed in it. The artery is the one which supplies
blood for that portion of the foot from the instep
down, and it no longer performs that function as
the clot prevents the blood from Ho wing through
it further than the wound. The lower part of
the leg is now dead, and physicians woo visited
the boy yesterday, a-’c of tlie opinion that it wil
be necessary to amputate the leg a little above
the knee to save his life. One of the physicians
said that he could hear the throbbing of the
blood in the upper part of the urtery. The ease
has assumed uninteresting phase.
BLISEU'S BAD LV< K,
A Premature Explosion of Powder Seriously In
jures Two Men 011 the Georgia Mill land.
Yesterday those who were present at the Union
passenger depot saw a sight which at once ex
cited their sympathy and aroused their curiosity.
Au untortunate white mail was walking restlessly
around under the shed with his face and hands
wrapped in cloth and apparently suffering great
pain. An Enquirer-Sun reporter approached
him to ascertain what was the matter, and in an
swer to a question he said:
“My name is Jack Reiser, and 1 was burned by
a very unexpected explosion. I was engaged in
making a powder blast for the Chattahoochee
Brick Company, on the Georgia Midland rail
road, just this side of the Pine mountain. 1 had
put in a quantity of powder and was just putting
in more when it went off. I don’t know how it
happened, except it caught from a straj spark
of fire. We were working iu a new ground
which had just been burned over. You «nn see
for yourself how badly 1 was burned. Bill Wor
ley, a white convict from Pike couuty, was as
sist! 1 g me. lie was worse burned than I. His
clothing caught five, and before they could be
stripped from him he was terribly burned on the
legs and body, especially the back, it was not a
premature blast. It was simply a powder explo
sion.”
Reiser’s brother was with him and said Jack
had suffered great pain. He had been using
Mustang liniment and it had done him much
good.
“Do you use Mustang liniment for a burn?”
asked the reporter.
“Oh, yes. The Chattahoochee Brick Company
uses it ail the time in such cases. Last night my
brother’s eyes were closed, but you see they are
both open to-day. Mustang liniment did it.”
Jack Beiser put in at this point and said:
“But they pay a great deal more attention to
an injured couvict than they do to a regular em
ploye. They kept two men sitting up with Bill
last nijht and they paid no attention to me. I
may try them again, but they will have to pay
me for lost time on account of this accident. It
was not my fault, and I do not see why they
should not be held liable for damage the same as
any other company. Accidents, you know, will
happen in the best of families, and I think some
body should pay for them ”
About this time the conductor said “all
aboard,” and Beiser boarded the train without
finishing the details of bis statement.
