GEORGIA’S DELEGATION.

THE IIOU8E MEMBERS—AN ADMIRABLE
RECOUP FOR ABILITV AND GAL
LANTRY — INTERESTING
PERSONAL SKETCHES.
Washington, March 28.—[Special.]—
Senator Joe Brown was born in 1821, and
Senitor Colquitt in 1824. Both [are law
yers, and both graduated from law colleges
—Brown from Yale and Colquitt from
Princeton. Senator Colquitt was admitted
to the bar in 1845, and one year later his
colleague was admitted. Three years after
his debut as a lawyer, .Joe Brown heard
the call of his country, answered it, be
came a State Senator, and so began the
phenomenal political career that made him
-a Circuit Judge, Governor, Chief Justice
and United States S“nator. About the
time this call reached Joseph. Senator
•Colquitt took up arms, volunteered, went
to Mexico and won the shoulder straps
I -of a Major. In 1852 Brown was
Pierce elector, and in 1880 Col-
luit was a Breckinridge elector.
Jrown served as a member of the State
Senate, but was never a member of the
louse. Colquitt was a member of the
rouse in ’50, from one of the lower coun
ties but never aspired to the Senate.
~ Then the civil war begun, Brown was
Governor, and Colquitt was a planter. The
["business of one was to raise troops and
the business of the other to fight them.
{The Colquitcs had a martial turn. The
I Browns were better equipped for the Cab
inet, and so these two went their ways
severally.
Colquitt entered the service as a cap
tain and quit it a Major-General. He was
successively Colonel of the Sixth Georgia
||nfantry and a brigadier. Olustee made
lim fame, and gave him the command of
division. Brown continued in the ex-
cutive office for three terms, thereby
breaking the record. His administration
ras characterized by ability, and bitter
hostility to the Confederate conscript
leasure. After the struggle, Brown went
prison and Colquitt was paroled,
[heir political records since the
►ar are pretty well known. Brown
nbraced Republicanism, advocated the
construction measure and voted for an
jlti-bellum Democrat, U. S. Grant, for
sident. His distinguished associate
{Hated with the Democrats, fought re-
struetion and voted for Horace Greely,
fe long abolitionist for the same high

the summer of ’64 a fragment of shell
destroyed the sight of his right eye. He
had been married shortly before
that to a beautiful lady and
this wound sent him home to
her blinded for several months. He found
it a great hardship not to be able to see his
bride, but the time c ime when this shot
stood him to good advantage. He was
raised in what is known as the “Pigeon
Boost’ - district in Lumpkin county, and
hence when he entered the race for Con
gress against Emory Speer he was popu
larly known by the soubriquet ot “One-
eyed Plow Boy of Pigeon Roost.’’ It was
a homely title, but it swept the mountains
and won a great victory for the true De
mocracy. With such a delegation in Con
gress is it any wonder that Georgia feels
sassy?

A former citizen of Columbus, Mr. W.
L. Cash, is one of the best known soldiers
in the District of Columbia militia. He
enlisted some years ago as a private
the Washington Light Infantry
battalion, and now he commands
one of its companies. He is the most ex
pert rifle shot in the district and has won
the Light Infantry corps medal for a num
ber of years. It will be remembered that
Captain Cash shot for a position in the
Creedmoor team in 1883, and captured a
place and afterwards did good work at
Wimbledon. He has been in a great many
matches of local or minor importance and
has always come out with credit. The
Light Infantry have never lost a match
when Cash was on their team. The Wash
ington Star had a pleasant sketch of Cap
tain Cash on last Sunday and pronounces
him one of the most enterprising and best
informed militia officers in the local militia
forces. E. P. Speer.

A BIG LITTLE TOWN WITH BIG PEOPLE
HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS.
Hamilton, Ga., March 28.—[Special.]—
A press of business engagement has pre
vented me from sending items more regu
larly to tlie Enquirer-Sun; will try to"do
better in future, as we want our little
town and big county represented in your
enterprising columns.
Hamilton is quiet and peaceable. We
have only about forty-five white families,
and we try to live as one family. We
have no bar-rooms, no billiard saloons, no
card tables, no ball-rooms—nothing to
lead us downward. If our people hunger
and thirst after any of these man and
woman destroyers they have to go to your
wicked city to fine them.
Our local paper i3 ably conducted by
Rev. W. A. Farley. The mechanical de
partment is under the control of Miss
Nannie Howard, who is a very fine printer
for her experience. She can do everything
to be done about a country newspaper
office, and with our Aleck to pull the press
the paper always gets out on time. Aleck
Farley never looks so interesting and love
ly as when he is drawing the lever of his
Washington hand press, printing the
home news of Harris county.
Harris county is one of the largest ui
the State. We are big every way. We
have big men, big planters, big farmers,
and we’ve got a big little town! We have
plenty of good material for Governors,
Congressmen, J u Iges, Legislators, and
other big things. If you want a Governor
or Congressman we can give you Tom
Kimbrough, Col. Mobley, Julge Hudson,
Judge S. M. Brannon, liev. Aleck Farley,
and a score of others. Plenty of material
here, to supply the wants of National or
State councils.
Our small grain crops have been consid
erably damaged by the cold spells but not
destroyed. The Le Conte pear trees were
killed and some few peach trees, it is said,
are dead, but we expect to have plenty of
fruit.
Rev. C. E. Crawley, of your city, visited
us last week and preached at the Methodist
prayer meeting Wednesday night. The
attendance on these prayer meetings is as
fine as can be had in any town of the size
of Hamilton. The c ingregations number
sometimes as high as seventy-five people
at prayer meetings.
Colonel Livingston and other distin
guished office seekers are to be with the
people of Harris county April 9. Of
course, these gentlemen will draw a crowd
to Hamilton.
Our small boys have gone crazy on
goats. A man came through here a few
weeks since and sold twenty-one goats in
a few hours. Nearly every boy in town
has a goat and a wagon, and such times
as we do have. The town has actually
gone wild on the goat question.
Living is cheap in Hamilton. Fine
country butter at 15 cents per pound;
eggs 10 cents per dozen, and, in season,
we had plenty of spring chickens at 124
to 15 cents each. We are wofully behind
on gardens. Our early plantings were all
killed, but with the coming spring weather
we have no fears for the future.
Cotton planting has begun, and is pro
gressing finely all around about us.
One of our largest and most successful
planters, and a recent legislator of the
higher sort, sold, a few days ago, the last
of his crop in a lot of 125 bales at 104
cents per pound.
Another of our more successful families,
who are high up in worldly goods, are
negotiating the sale of what they have left
of their crop of 1889—a renment—200
bales say! Ten thousand dollars worth of
cotton for one family is pretty good for
tlxese hard times.
Mr. Hiram Goodman, a well-known cit
izen of this county, died at his home near
Hamilton on Wednesday evening last, and
was buried yesterday with Masonic honors
at Bethany Baptist church burial ground
near Chipley.
Mr. Green Parish, a blind lay evangelist,
lias been in Hamilton and Chipley recent
ly delivering lectures to the young men
and singing the sweet songs of Zion. Mr.
Parish is from Irwinton, Ga., and was ed
ucated at the Blind Academy in Macon.
He is a man of great versatility of talent.
Birmingham’s budget.
Birmingham. March 29.—[Special.]—
Last night thieves robbed the safe of L. F.
Henderson, a saloon keeper of S145. The
safe was unlocked, and as the barkeeper
stepped into a rear room for a minute
some one opened the safe, seized the cash
drawer containing the money, and lied.
There is no clue.
Duncan T. Parker, one of Anniston’s
greatest developers and wealthiest citizens,
died last night. He returned from a trip
to New York only a few days ago. All
Calhoun county mourns the loss of one of
its greatest sons.
At the State encampment of the G. A. R..
in Montgomery, Major W. H. Hunter, of
this city, was elected commander.
Tomorrow morning the Third National
Bank and the Columbus Savings Bank
move to their permapent quarters, comer
Broad and Twelfth streets. This location
is by far the most prominent one in Colum
bus, being the junction point of the horse
car lines, and tlie dummy also passing in
front of the building. It is on the
frequented side of broad street,
and the comer around which all visitors to
near-by postoffice and the Union depot
must go. During the past six months this
elegant building has been specially fitted
up for the above banks, both of which are
under the same control. The entrance to
this as one steps on tlie marble slab,
inlaid in which, in bla"Sk, are the words
“Third National Bank,” is particularly
inviting: for the Schillinger pavement and
the tile floor are on the same level, and
comfort has been consulted. The design of
THE VESTIBULE#) ENTRANCE
is decidedly graceful and the antique
oak doors, with ancient strap hinges
of oxidized copper, give it an
air of solidity as well. The art-glass
transom to this entrance is a “joy
forever.” The artistic finish of this bank
ing house needs a more capable hand than
ours to describe its beauties and elegance.
The triple windows, one each on Broad
and Twelfth streets, are poems in their
way, and the solid cherry frames and
French plate-glass, bearing the legends of
the safe deposit vaults and the
COLUMBUS SAVINGS RANK’S
salient features, are most beautifully
surmounted by art-glass transome over
head. The stools of all the windows
are marble; in truth, the wainscot,
the floors and borders are all Georgia mar
ble, blending beautifully the white, Creole,
Kennesaw, Tennessee and Etowah shades
in the trimmings. All the interior work
is made of hard woods, the furniture beinj
natural cherry, with a lovely trimming in
the frieze panel of selected sycamore.
The
giiill-work is a new pattern,
never used before in any bank, and is solid
oxidized copper. The chairs are all of the
government specification, being duplicates
of those used in the United States public
buildings; so also are the tables and
lounges. The fresco in this building is an
education in art to our people, and lovers
of the beautiful could not find an object
Wesson better worthy the time given an in
spection. The relief dados, varying in
each department to match the carpets,
QUICKLY CATCH THE EYE;
| and then the frieze, ceiling, panels and
j emblematic designs all charm by the quiet
! tones and perfection of work. The build-
j ing itself is heated by an improved hot-air
furnace, and cooled in summer by aid
of an electric fan, and every con
venience known to the moderns finds a
place in this captivating building. The
arrangement of the positions of the officers
an l employes are by far the best we have
ever seen.
THE DIRECTORS’ ROOM,
for this is a bank in which the Directors
actually have a voice in its active
management — is charming enough to
insure regular meetings of the board.
The chandelier, carpet and hard
wood mantel in this room do full justice
to the connoisseur’s .demands. The
| American Marble Company, of Georgia,
i furnished all the marble, and the
ROBERT MITCHELL FURNITURE COMPANY,
of Cincinnati, had the entire contract for
the interior wood-work, fresco decorations
and furniture and fittings.
It is the safe deposit vaults and the cosy
coupon room, however, that many of our
readers are most interested in. There is
nothing as handsome in the South as the
massive vault fronts and doors to the three
vaults in this bank. There is nothing
more secure or more comfortably arranged
in the world than
THESE DEPOSIT VAULT8.
There are triple doors to each vault, the
inassi /e outside doors being both fire and
burglar proof, all of the bright bolt work
being protected from dust and dampness
by beveled plate glass. The vaults them
selves are as perfect and formidable as the
experience and skill of 1890 can make
them, being constructed entire of four
plates of Bessemer and chrome steel and
5-ply welded iron and steel, bent corners,
and all put together with conical bolts.
There is room easily for the
FOUR HUNDRED SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES,
which the public have already largely
engaged. With the non-lockout de
vice, time locks and perfect fire
proof protection, in addition to the burglar-
proof steel vaults described above, patrons
of safe deposit vaults feel the great con
venience of this location impels them to
patronize the one under review; specially
so when it is shown to owners of valua
bles, diamonds, bonds or deeds that so safe
and so comfortable a place only costs $3.00
and upwards per annum, and the renter of
the box in sole possession of the key. The
HALL SAFE AND LOCK COMPANY
secured this vault contract on account of
their superior workmanship, although bid
ding against all the A1 competitors in the
United States. It is very gratifying to us
to see such a building, with such protection
and such comforts. It is tangible evidence
that tlie solid institutions who will make
their homes there are here to stay. It is a
fitting compliment to their officers’ confi
dence in the future of Columbus. It is
marked proof of the marvelous prosperity
of these banks, whose
FIRST BIRTHDAY IS APRIL 2 NEXT,
and yet represent over one-half
million dollars, seventy-two per cent
of which is deposits, and to daily see the
stock of the Third National quoted at 124
and always “wanted.” In the bottom of
the heart of every man and woman there
is admiration for pluck, progress and suc
cess. Measured by this standard, these
banks command the respect and confidence
the people give them, and will easily win
tiie spurs they are so justly entitled to.
We congratulate Supervising Architect D.
W. Champayne on the execution, and
President Jordan and Cashier Murphey
upon their good taste and success.
The Flower Industry.
If the practical business man believes
that the business of flowers is an incon
siderable one, and that they are used
chiefly by people who are getting mar
ried or getting out of the world altogeth
er, let him step into a rose market in
Twenty-third street sime afternoon be
tween 3 and 4 o'clock. When he reaches
there first he will find everything about
as quiet as it well could be. By 4 o’clock,
when the carts drive up filled with boxes
of flowers shipped from out of town rose
farms and flower farms, just arrived at
piers and railroad depots by express,
everything immediately takes on a very
confused and animated appearance. A
dozen clerks and the proprietor appeal
simultaneously from nobody knows
where, and the boxes, containing layei
upon layer of baskets filled with all va
rieties of roses, picked early that morn
ing, are unpacked. In packing, the roses
are carefully placed with the first layer
of stems running one wav, reversing tlie
order on the next layer, and so on to the
top of the basket. Bv this time tlie room
is filled with men anxious to procure the
first pick and the choicest variety, and
they bargain as closely, with as total an
oblivion to all their fragrance and beauty,
as if the goods were the most ordinary
cloth or cotton.—New York World.
A GUV BOAT SUNK.
Paris, March 29.—A French gun boat
was sunk at Rocheforte by a collision with
a man-of-war.
Some Great Unexplored Landn.
A great part of Asia and nearly three-
fourths of Africa is a scaled book to us
moderns. The explorations of Stanley,
and those who preceded him, are mere
spider tracks in the desert, and our best
maps of Africa are half guesswork.
In Asia there is Thibet and Turkestan,
and in Africa the great desert of Sahara
to be explored. We know almost nothing
of Borneo, Papua or Madagascar, and
thousands of islands in tlie Pacific ocean
are still unexplored.
Great tracts of Australia have never
been trodden by the foot of a white man,
and nearly all of South America inside
of the coast lines is known only by hear
say and tradition. Coming up to our
northern half of the continent, we en
counter more unknown lands. Central
America and Mexico offer fertile fields
for exploration, and lower California lias
never been thoroughly explored.
In the far north is Greenland, Baffin
Land, tlie great Hudson bay region, all
of British America north of latitude 60
degs., and our great territory of Alaska.

Women Writers in France.
A Paris correspondent says: The most
discouraging obstacle the American wo
man has to contend witli in Paris is tlie
great number of English and French
writers employed by the American press,
while it is impossible for an American
writer to be recognized by foreign jour
nals. One of the most rabid anti-Ameri
cans, in his personal feelings, receives
thousands of dollars a year from Ameri
can magazines and journals. No woman
can live by her pen who lias not a regu
lar salary. To attempt it is one of the
most hazardous and vexatious undertak
ings. Haphazard correspondence is cast
ing bread on the water that in nine cases
out of ten brings back—the manuscript.
Mrs. Hooper has a stated salary, which
enables her to live in cozy apartments and
enjoy Parisian life with comfort. Her
daughter has studied for tlie stage, and
last June created the role inapla; which
Mrs. Hooper has written, called “Helen’s
Inheritance.'*
A Marvelous East Indian Cannon.
It is 174 feet long, 5 feet and 6 inches
around the muzzle, with a caliber 18
inches across. By the natives it is called
Jaun Kushall, or the destroyer of life.
History does not record the date of its
casting, which the superstitious people
attribute to the gods, doctas or divinities.
Pers : • n inscriptions on this great deatli
dealer prove that it has been captured in
some war with that country, but tlie let
ters and characters are so nearly oblit
erated that the date cannot be ascer
tained. The cannon has rested for ages
between two mammoth trees of the pee-
pul species, which have*grown so firmly
around it that it could not be removed
without felling one or both of them.
Tradition says that the cannon has been
fired once, and that tlie ball was impelled
twenty-four miles!—St. Louis Republic.
Didn’t Want Millet to See It.
S. R. Callaway, a prominent officer of
the Grand Trunk railroad, was, some
yearn ago, connected with a western
road, anii necessarily spent much of his
time where his western interests lay.
Out there he met Millet, the artist. Mr.
Callaway and the painter came together
on a hunting trip and became quite inti
mate, which resulted in tlie railway man
inviting the artist to make a visit at his
home. The invitation was accepted and
the two started homeward. Just before
reaching the city where he lived Mr.
Callaway went into a telegraph office
and wired to his wife: “Millet, the ar
tist, is coming home with me for a tew
days’ visit; take that chroino out of the
dining room.”—Chicago Herald.

A Pretty Parlor Experiment.
A very simple apparatus for obtaining
an electric spark is made by a German
physicist. Round tlie centre of a common
lamp chimney is pasted a strip of tin foil,
and another strip pasted from one end of
the chimney to within a quarter of an
.inch of this ring. Then a piece of silk
is wrapped round a brush, and the inte
rior of the chimney is rubbed briskly.
In the dark a bright electric spark may
be seen to pass from one piece of tin foil
to the other each time the brush is with
drawn from the chimney. Many other
experiments can be tried with this ap
paratus.—New York Telegram.
English Fraud Coffee.
English tea is delicious, but their cof-
fee is abominable. The ready ground
coffee sold in the shops is as fine as dust.
If you ask tiie grocer to grind it coarse
he will have it the size of granulated
sugar. It is only possible to have it
drinkable by making in a French coffee
pot by percolation. Made in the Amer
ican way, by boiling, it' requires exag
gerated care or it is like mud.—London

WAYCROS8 JOTTINGS.
Waycboss, March 29.—[Special.]—Bids
are advertised by the Ordinary of Ware
county for the building of a brick jail for
the county to be completed by October 1,
1890. This is a much needed improve
ment, as the jail now in use is not a very
safe looking place to confine prisoners, es
pecially where they are of a desperate
character, as is very often the case in
these times.
As to the political outlook in Ware
county, everything seems to be quiet and
serene, so far as I am able to find
out. Your correspondent started out
on yesterday morning to see
what was going on politically
but after a vain search and questions piied
to several prominent men, he gave up the
job of finding anything at this time of any
special interest. The rotation system be
ing in vogue in this Senatorial district (tlie
Fifth) it devolves on Coffee county to name
the man to fill the office of Senator, and it
was thought by some of the men that were
questioned by your scribe that Colonel J.
M. Denton, of Coffee, would be the com
ing man. Colonel Denton is said to be a
man well capacitated in every respect to
fill the high office of Senator. The Fifth
Senatorial district is compose! of the coun
ties of Ware, Coffee and Clinch.
There is not even a candidate for Gov
ernor in this county. All tlie preferences
I have yet heard for Governor is for W. W.
Gordon, of Savannah.
Rev. Mr. Scruggs, pastor of the Baptist
church here, is lying very low with pneu
monia and hardly expected to recover. Mr.
Scruggs is very popular with his people and
considerable uneasiness is felt among his
congregation over his serious sickness.
A Mr. Ellenwood, a very old gentleman,
is also seriously sick.
Mr. Wilson’s new brick store will soon
be completed to the second story; that is
the brick work will so n be finished.
