4 DAILY ENQUIRER • SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 30, \m Caught on a fonrrntehrr. 'Chattanooga Times. ,.^, h . e cannon-ball train on the Georgia 0t i tbe .? ast Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railway was late yesterday ?“fhrt.thundering speed from Atlanta to this city. As the train swept round a curve into a cut near Ooltewah Junction, fifteen miles east of Chattanooga, an enor- Ttr* U w a iw p agl . e was seen on the track by , r ,VFortune, the fireman, who was at the moment peering through the for- ward window of the cab. The pilot was h?J? ..?^Li e8 Ji li u P , before he could rise,struck him, tumbled him uo on the frame, where he clutched a wooden beam with one of his great claws and held fast. Before the bird had time to recover ‘ he . fr‘?ht and shock of his collision with the cowcatcher. Fortune had climbed along the footway to the pilot and was upon the noble emblem of Ameri can liberty, when a lively tussle ensued. The eagle fought viciously for his liberty, and the fireman was equally determined on making him his prisoner. The train was running at the rate of forty-five miles •an hour. The man had to hold by one hand with all his power to one of the iron guards below the headlight to keep his foot ing, as the engine swayed from side to side and bounded over the inequalities of the track in its headlong race against time, and manage the eagle with the other. But his birdship was finally secured, after he had nearly torn Mr. For tune’s overalls to shreds with his powerful talons, that are fully four inches long. He wus carried back over the footway fighting like a demon. Onee in the cab, Engineer Parks went to Fortune’s aid, and by hard work they succeeded in tying the ’king of the upper ether” securely, though their task was no easy one, as the eagle fought savagely with beak and claws as one of his captors was within reach. When tired he was spread out on the cab floor and found to meusure seven feet from tip to tip of the wings. He stands fully two feet high when fully erect, and is altogether a splen did specimen of the monarch of American birds. He was sold to Sam R. Read, of the Read House, for $12.50. This is probably the first instance of the capture of an eagle by a railway train, and Mr. Fortune’s ex ploit in securing the gallant fellow clearly entitles him to rank as a man of great presence of mind and rare grit. “ROUHH ON PILES.” Why sutler Piles?

When Jay Gould scribbled off a check for $1,500,000 to pay Tom Allen for the Iron Road it was thought to be the largest individual check ever written. Gould wrote it on a sheet of note paper. John B. Allen once dashed off a check for $400,000 and gave it to Senator Dorsey for a half interest in the senator’s cattle ranch. There are several United States government checks for one cent, to square up accounts, in existence.—New York Sun. balls. The Georgians formed and prepar ed to make the attack by crossing the branch. There were 10,000 men on each side, and the scene was very imposing. As soon os the Geor gians crossed the branch they met a terrible fusllade from the Tennesseeans, who were at home in the snow. The com mander of the Tennesseeans was captured, but a bold dash was made by the Tennes seeans and ho was rescued. The Georgians and South Carolinians, being unused to the 8gow, were at a great disadvantage, and were forced back across the branch. As the Tennesseeans crossed the branch they wet their snowballs, and the next volley fired at the Georgia and Carolina boys was terrible in its effect. Passing on the Ten nesseeans captvfred the quarters and pro ceeded to loot the whole shebang, carrying off rations, tobacco, pipes, and everything else that did not belong to the government. fhwklnic an Unhealthy Uroirth.

The clergyman who cannot witness a ballet without lowering his moral tone is the kind of man who had better stay away. -Life. advice to Mothers.—Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It re lieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural, quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes as * ‘bright as a button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regu lates the bowels and is the best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising •from teething or other causes. Twenty- eve cents a bottle. jel7 d&wly Killed the Rill. “What’s become of the clerk you used to have?” asked a traveler of an Iowa drug gist. “Had to let him go.” “What was the matter? Didn’t he fill the bill?” “Yes, he di ; that was just the trouble. His brother Bill was the hardest drinker in the county, and he undertook to fill him and keep him full. He came pretty near ruining the drug business in this town.”— Merchant Traveler. Free Trade. The reduction of internal revenue and the taking off of revenne 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 added 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 ot any medicines in the world. The advantage of increased size of the bottles will be greatly appreciated by the sick and afflicted, in every town and village in civilized coun tries. Sample bottles for 10 cents remain the same size. octl2 d&wly Pernicious Egotism.

During the years that 1 have been afflicted I have tried almost everything claimed to be a specific for Dyspepsia in the hope of finding something that would afford per manent relief. I had about made up my mind to abandon all medicines when I no ticed an endorsement of Simmons Liver Regulator by a prominent Georgian, a jurist whom I knew, and concluded to try its effects in my ease. I have used but two bottles, and am satisfied that l have struck the right tiling at last. I felt its beneficial effects almost immediately.
