DAILY ENQUIRER - BUN, COLUMBUS, GEORGIA. THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 2, 1886. N»w* from the Three State* Told In Brief Paragraphs. Another Wreck on the Brunswick nnd Western Bailruuil—Nlieflleld Booming Again—A Wild Begro In a Florida Swamp, Etc. Georgia. Ool. R. C. Humber’s dwelling in Eaton- ton ana the entire contents were burned last Monday night. The chickens even perished by fire. Loss $1000; no insurance. Hanse E. Lawson, the man supposed to have committed suicide in Augusta, has been found, but the body of whoever it was cannot be recovered, as it is supposed the current washed it down the river. Frank B. Miller, a white man who re cently located at Rome, was arrested Fri day night under a governor’s warrant and was carried by Sheriff Vandevere to Cher okee county to stand a trial for assault with intent to murder. There are at Camilla eight persons whose aggregate ages are 640 years, all enjoying health and having lived fourscore years “by reason of strength.” There are eight persons in and around Camilla whose ag gregate weight is 1000 pounds. Rev. John Taylor, living nine miles south of Ty-Ty, happened to the misfortune to lose a fine lot of corn by fire a few days X together with his crib, a lot of fodder ge cow house nnd two banks of pota toes. The cause of the fire is unknown. A secret meeting was held in Augusta Monday night nnd the merchants’ assem bly of the Knights of Labor organized. About twenty merchants have already joined, and at another meeting, to be held next Monday night, it is said a number more will join. It will bo called the Em mett Assembly. J. A. McNair, of the Evergreen neigh borhood of Mitchell county, will kill aboul forty hogs, and will aggregate in weight at least 6000 pounds of pork. Mr. McNair has a four or five-horso farm. He raises ground peas, potatoes, etc. Hu sold $30 worth of potatoes from one-eighth of an acre. There was another bad wreck on the Brunswick and Western railroad Saturday night, on the eastern end of the road, some ten or twelve miles from Brunswick, at a place known as Buffalo trestle. There were five cars demolished, together with fifteen head of horses and mules killed by the cars falling through the trestle. The cause of the wreck as reported was the breaking of an axle of one of the cars, thus precipitating them into the creek below. The superior court of Mitchell county adjourned Friday morning. Judge Bower presided and Hon. W. A. Spence was prosecuting attorney. Jim Wilson, the, wife murderer, was sentenced, after having been recommended by the jury to mercy, to bard labor in the penitentiary for life. The negro women especially arc dissatis fied, and complain because he was not hung, fearing its license to other husbands to do likewise. A correspondent writing from Augusta says: “Committeeman Wright, member ot the general executive bourd of the Knights of Labor, who settled the strike here, has sent $100 to Hightower Davis, to pay debts still outstanding against the Knights of Labor, which were contracted during the recent strike lockout here. The •formerexecutive board met this afternoon, looked over the bills stiff owed, and found them to amount to about $0000. These they audited, and will send to the general executive board in Philadelphia, request ing that they be paid. As Mr. Wright, wiien here, refused to pay these debts, clainiiug they were not legitimate, it is hardly probable they will now be paid. These biffs are mostly owed to doctors, druggists and landlords.” Alabama. Col. John D. Roquomore has tendered his resignation as adjutant-general. Between $200,000 and $300,000 wortli of lots have been sold in the last ninety days in Sheffield. Don Davis, of Jefferson county, who was sentenced in 1885 to two years’ imprison ment for an escape, bad his sentence com muted Tuesday to one year. The stockholders of the Birmingham National Bank will meet in a few days to increase its capital stock from $100,000 to $500,000. The new stock is all placed. Some unknown party threw a sodawater bottle at Tom Chittenden at the Chatta nooga saloon in Birmingham Saturday night, inflating an ugly wound on his head. Henry Reese,convicted in I-Ienry county in 1870 of murder in the second degree and sentenced to fifteen years’ imprisonment in the penitentiary, was pardoned by the governor Tuesday. Fire caught in the cotton on two rear cars of an incoming Mobile and Ohio freight train at Mobile Monday evening. Sixty bales were consumed and twelve damaged. The loss was $3200, covered by a general policy in the Royal Insurance Company of Liverpool. Mrs. Meadows, living about two and a half miles east of Equality was severely burned Monday by faffing into the fire when in a fit. Some small children were present but unable to puff the lady out ot the fire, and she was not rescued until the appearance of a small boy who was on the 8 remises and was attracted by screaming, ne ear was burned into a crisp. Flurliln. At Sanford the gas house is rapidly near ing completion, and that city will be light ed with gas by Christmas. The Florida Railway and Navigation railroad has put the tare between Sum- terville and Panasoffkee down to 15 cents. Sumter county has suffered a great loss in the death of her superintendent of pub lic schools—Prof. D. L. Hubbard—which occurred November 22. Rev. E. K. Mitchell, a graduate of Princeton college, was installed as pastor of the Presbvterian church at St. Augus tine Sunday." Rev. Dr. McCaubrey, of San Mateo, delivered the charge to the church; Rev. Dr. Mitchell, of Crescent City, the charge to the people; Rev. Dr. Matt ice, ot Starke, the charge to the pastor, and Rev. Dr. Morrell the salutatory in the evening. A large congregation was present. The church was tastefully decorated. On Saturday night last, about 10 o’clo-k, the store house of Messrs. Welch, of Cot- tondale, was discovered to bo on fire. I ne house, with the stock of goods, except, perhaps. $500 worth, was consumed, as was also an adjoining house owned by Mi. Bvrd. Messrs. Welch estimates their loss at about $4000, while that of Mr. Byrd is estimated at about $200. Suspicion pointed to Pat O’Bryne, who has resided at Cotton- dale for three years, and who had had a difficulty with Mr. Welch during the even ing O’Bryne is under bond tor appear ance at the next term of the circuit court. Considerable excitement was created last week by the discovery that a negro was secreting himself in the woods two or three miles north of Sumterville. It has also been ascertained that he has been lin ing thus—mostly in the dense hammocks and swamps this side of Wildwood—for several months. Once or twice he has ventured to approach a negro railroad camp for the purpose of bartering sweet potatoes nnd game for other food. By this means it was learned that he has been subsisting in this manner for eight years, during which time he has not entered a house. No other information could be obtained concerning him, but it is supposed that he ia au escaped S! ot ', He carries a large “bull- ° ’ and the ne B r oes he has ap proached are very much afraid of him ife Thursdn v Ve n d f by W , illiam T on>PlHns. on T^<lay of last week, in a dense patcii of palmetto, west of the Panasoffkee trestle, where he was “bayed” by the dogs. Sever- h!.»n a £? 8 J? a j e . bee ? fouml where fire had been kindled, but it is e\ident that ho hns been very careful not to make much smoke and is extremely fearful of attract- ing attention to his hiding place. No depredatioiis have been committed by Him, so far as is known,except the stealing or sweet potatoes upon which tosubsist.and if so disposed he is, doubtless, too cautious crime P er P®“®tion of any greater Very Particular In that Bank. A man entered a Little Rock bank and Presented a check which road: ‘Pay to the bearer the sum of $10.” The cashier took the check, looked at it and said: “The check is perfectly good, but vou’ll havet° get some ono to identify you.” What’s use?” replied the mnn; °pn 1 you see that it says pay to bearer?” Yes, but you must prove that you are the bearer.”—Arkansaw Traveler. Wonders of Invention. Mrs. Blinks (reading)—“A Troy man has invented a wood stove that saves 75 per cent, of fuel, the yield of ashes paying for the other 25 per cent.” Isn’t that grand? Mrs. Minks—My, my 1 I must Bend for one like that. Its just what I’ve been wanting. “I think I’ll wait.” “WaitI Why, what for?” “Seems to me if they’ve got that they might in time make one that would pay the house rent, too.” Free Trade. The reduction of internal revenue nnd the taking off of revenue stamps from Pro prietary Medicines, no doubt has largely benefited the consumers,as well as relieving the burden of home manufacturers. Es pecially is this the case with Green’s Au gust Flower and Boschee’s German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen, has been addod'to increase the size of the bottles containing these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth more medicine in the 75 cents size. The August Flower for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, and the German Syrup for Cough and Lung trou bles, have perhaps, the largest sale of any medicines in the world. The advantage of increased size of the bottles will be greatly appreciated by the sick and attlicled, in every town and village in civilized coun tries. Sample bottles for 10 cents remain the same size. octl'i d&wl.v Not Siirprlsiinj ot All. The New York papers are amazed at the testimony given in court by a witness who said he was u “New York born hackmon,” and averred that he had never played a card or drank a drop of liquor in his life. This is regarded as incredible. Nothing strango about it, as it appears to us. Do they expect one man to be possessed of all the vices? Besides, the witness may have lied.—Washington Star. llnlurin.
