THICK IN TIIK IIi: \ A.
A Young Mini’s Probable Successful Attempt at
Sulehle at Under.
Parties who came in on the passenger train
from Macon yesterday reported that Mr. Irbin
Wallace, of Butler, attempted suicide early yes
terday mornit g. He applied to a friend and
borrowed a pistol, saying that he wai ted to kill
a rabbit that was urn’er his store. In a few min
utes the report of a pistol was heard, quickly fol
lowed by another. Those in. the neighborhood
of the store, being startled by the pistol shots,
rushed in and found Wallace lying on the floor
with two bullet holes in his temple. He was still
alive, but talked only in monosyllables. Prompt
surgical attention was given him, but at a late
hour yesterday evening our latest advices were
that he cannot live. Ho is a son of Col. W. 8.
Wallace, a prominent lawyer; and has been con
ducting a grocery business in Butler. Dissipation
is said to have been the cause of the rash act.
He is about 30 years old and is unmarried. He
has a host of fViends who will regret to learn of
this rash step.
OLD MAN SANDKItS DEAD.
Thu Two Murderers in Jail at Seale.
About ten days ago the Enquirer Sun gave an
account of a murderous attack upon an old man
named Reuben Sanders, who lived near Hatche-
chubbee. It will be remembered that unknown
part ies entered his house while he was asleep and
struck him on the head with a crowbar, crushing
his skull. The old man lingered until last Sun
day night, when lie died. In the meantime, how
ever, Tol and Joe Carden, two white men, upon
whom suspicion rested strongly, gave themselves
up to the sheriff and were lodged in jail in default
of bail. Yesterday a coroner’s inquest was held
and the jury found that it was murder, and
charged Tol and Joe Carden with the crime.
These two men hud been indicted for robbing old
man Sanders a few months ago,and it seems that
they took this means of obtaining revenge.
MORE ABOUT THE CENTRAL.
From RUkely to Columbia.
Wo find the following railroad item in the
Early County News:
“Mr. R. T. McDonald, civil engineer for the
Central railroad, is engaged this week in survey
ing a line from Blakely to Columbia, Ala., for the
purpose of ascertaining the probable cost of ex
tending the line of the Blakely extension to that
point. After this is ascertained it is probable
that the railroad authorities will submit a propo
sition to the people of Columbia dictating the
terms upon which tbev will agree to extend the
line, but it is not probable and hardly possible
that they will consent to stop the lire at that
point, bdt will carry it on to Pollard, Ala., to con
nect with the Mobile and Girard road. The
appearance of the surveying corps
i in Blakely has created considerable
j discussion ns to the intentions of the
railroad authorities, nnd the unanimous opin
l ion of the railroad employes, as well as the
citizens of our town, is that if the, road ever
I crosses the river it will go to Pollard, If this
j is done the Albany and Blakely extension will
\ become one of the main lines of the South
western railroad, n thing which most of cur
people wourd be glad to see come to pass We will
endeavor to keep our readers posted ns to the
different developments as they may arise in the
flu ure. We have no doubt the road will he com
pleted some day in the future, and we hope the
I time is near, but weare of theopinionourColum-
J bia friends will have to plank up the cash pretty
j liberally, if they wish the road to cross the Chat- #
tahoochee.

In reference to the fight for the presidency of
the Central railroad, the Savannah News of Sun
day had the following to sav:
The stock market quieted down yesterday after
the unusual activity of the past week. Central
went up a point to 118, but there were hardly any
sales. The day’s transactions were less than 509
shares.
There is an impression that an effort is baing
made by parties desiring to purchase to keep the
j stock from going any higher, and to accom-
| plish this that the statement h is been given out
that enough htul already been bought by General
I Alexander's friend*', to insure his election.
I The statement telegraphed IV »m \’ew York on
Friday that the Green stock, amounting to 7020
! shares, has not been sold, but that it will be voted
| for Gen. Alexander conflicts .vith the statement
made o.v Maj. Hartridge tliatit. was si Id outright,
and credits Mrs. Green with considerably over a
thousand shares more than she owned.
THE NEW YORK STOCK.
Copt. Raoul’s friends here say that the amount
of stock that has been bought by northern par
ties has been greatly exaggerated. A month ago
it was estimated that 20,000 shares were held in
New York and a large portion of this stock is
known to be favorable to Capt. Raoul and to the
present administration.
A large stockholder in the road said that he lias

Married in Florida.
Dr. Stephen Neal, of Talbot county, and Miss
Anna Tooke, of Macon, Fla., were married in the
latter place yesterday morning at 9 o’clock
groom is a preeminent young physician, and has
charge of the convict camps on the Georgia Mid
land. The bride form rly lived in this city and
is a niece of Mr. J. S. Jones. She is a charming
and talented young lady. The many friends of
the happy young couple wish for them a bright
and prosperous future. They will reach this
city to-morrow.
lion lo Save Gin Houses.
The Troy Messenger says : “ Mr. Frank Kelly
of this county saved his gin from burning a few
days ago iu the following cheap and novel man
ner :
“ He keeps two barrels of water, one on each
aide of his gin sitting on the floor, and an empty
water bucket close by. A few days ago with a
lint room half Bill of cotton, while his gin was
runniug at full speed, a match flashed in the saws
and in an instunt the lint room was in a blaze all
over. Mr. Kelly gathered his bucket and poured
water into the gin without stopping, and the
brush showered it all over the lint room and put
out the fire by the time it had singed over the
t-op of the cottoii. The lint room is thirteen feet
•quare, and what this precaution did for Mr.
Kelly it will do for every ginner iu the south uu-
der like circumstances.”

INCREASE IN MjbINEAS.
The business of the road is rapidly increasing,
and, but for the expenses • f an extraoi dinary
character incurved last year, and which are ex
plained in the president’s recent report, it would
nave paid a much larger dividend than it did.
The developoment of the Carolina lines recently
consolidated into the Port Royal and Western
Carolina vystem, embracing ever 200 miles o
road ; the recent purchase of the Boston and
Savannah Steamship lino ; the extension of the
Tho Columbus and Western road to Birmingham,
ine and its connection there with the Kansas City,
Fort Scott and Gulf road, establishing a through
line to Memphis, the largest interior cotton
market in the south, and Kansas City, forming a
connection that will bring to the Central a large
part of the business that now goes over other
lines, cannot but increase nnd very largely too,
the revenues of the road.

THE BIRMINGHAM CONNECTION.
It is expected that the Birmingham road will
bo completed by the middle of September. The
connection with Kansas City, the centre of the
most important producing region of the west,
not only opens to the section a country traversed
by the Central’s existing lines, the cheapest
channel through which to draw its products, but
also affords the shortest mileage route from that
section to New York and other eastern cities, t
is confidently believed that an improvement in
the revenues of the road will follow close upon
the completion of this connection.
IMPROVING THE ROAD.
The relaying of the entire system with steel
rails, and t he increase in rolling stock, although
at a considerable cost, will effect a saving of over
$100,000 in the operating expenses. In five years
$5,000,000 of 7 per cent, bonds will become due.
Assuming that these bonds can he Rinded at 5
per cent, there will be another saving of $100,-
000, thus decreasing the expenditures, while at
the same tiuie the rapid development of the
country and the acquirement of new territory
canuot fai to bring about a very large increase
in business. A daily line of steamers to New
York and a semi-weekly line to Boston and
Philadelphia are being considered ami will most
likely be put on at an early day.
CAPTAIN RAOUL IN NEW YORK
President Raoul is now in New York in the in
terests of the road, and is getting posted as to
the situation there. Among the largest holders
of Central stock in New York is Mr. Pine, who
represents the estate of the late Moses Taylor,
and who is a firm friend of Captain Raoul. Mr
Pine’s intluene and the stock ho is able to con
trol will, in event of a contest, figure very strong
ly in the election. Captain Raoul’s friends here
tire confident of his re-election by a larger vote
r an he received four years ago. At that elec
tion 66.(XX) shares were voted, the largest amount
of stock t hat has ever been voted at any elect ion
since the company was organized.
