DAILY ENQffiER-StIN: COLWBtJS, GEORGIA, TCESDAt MOMIJTO, SEPTEMBER 30,1890.
INTEREST S35C0H,
“There are hundreds of accounts of this
kind on the books of the banks. I know
this, because not long ago I knew of an
investigation being made. A client went
to his lawyer and said he had reason to
believe that his father, who had been dead
several years,had left money in the Bleeck-
er Street Savings Bank. The lawyer made
an investigation, and found that his
client’s father had an account there. It
was opened away back in 1830. Four
years afterward he evidently intended to
close it, for he drew out all the money de
posited except $10. This $10 had been
there since 1834. and had never been
touched. The claimant proved his iden
tity, and the bank paid over the money.
How much do you suppose it was? Three
hundred and sixty-six dollars. The $356
was the interest which had accumulated
sine 1834.”—New York Star.

A Crook Escapes.—Sunday night Offi

man giving his name as Walter Wilson.
The negro was supposed to be a crook,
and was charged with fleecing some col
ored innocents at Chunnennuggee Ridge
Sunday. When arrested he had a con"
cealed pistol on his person, about $20 in
change, and a lot of jewelry. He said
that his home was in Washington City,
and that he sold refreshments at the
camp meeting grounds Sunday for
a man in Montgomery. The Mayor
bound the negro over for carrying con
cealed weapons yesterday morning, and
not being able to give the bond he was
sent to jail. Wilson succeeded in making
his escape yesterday afternoon. It seems
that he was put in the chain gang prison
yesterday morning, and about 1 o’clock

THE HARRIS COUNTY TRAGEDY.
CRAWFORD, THE SLAYER OF SHEPHERD,
COMMITS SUICIDE.
Parties who came in on the Columbus
and Rome train yesterday morning, report
the death of James H. Crawford, which
occurred at the home of his brother, Mr.
Richard Crawford, two miles from Chip-
ley, at 6 o’clock yesterday morning.
It is stated that Crawford died with a
congestive chill, but it is believed that he
committed suicide by taking some deadly
drug.
So ends another chapter in a very sad
tragedy. •
It will be remembered that Crawford
shot and killed a highly respected citizen
of Harris county at his home near Chipley
September 21. The circumstances attend
ing the killing, as related by a Chipley
dispatch, at the time, are at follows:
Slanderous reports about a daughter of
Mr. Shepherd, a young lady of high stand
ing, were circulated by Crawford. These
reports reached the ears of the father of
the young lady. He at once demanded at
the hands of Mr. Crawford an instrument
of writing, stating that the reports were
false and malicious. Mr. Crawford told
Shepherd to write out any statement he
wanted him to sign, and bring it to his
house Monday morning, September 22.
Accordingly Mr. Shepherd, in company
with Mr. William Gates, went with the
papers to Crawford’s house for him
to sign that morning. Crawford, when
called to the gate and learning
the business of Shepherd, remarked that
he would fix him, and turning went into
the house, and got a double-barrelled shot
gun and came out. Shepherd toid him he
did not want any trouble, and was un
armed and jumped behind his horse.
Gates endeavored to prevent any trouble,
and Crawford threatened to shoot him and
turned on him with the gun, when Shep
herd stepped from behind the horse and
Crawford turned on him and emptied the
contents of the barrel, twelve buckshot, in
the region of the heart, killing Shepherd
instantly, as stated. Mr Shepherd was a
quiet, peaceable, law-abiding citizen, a
member of the Masonic fraternity, and its
Worshipful Master.
Crawford escaped, and the next day the
coroner’s jury returned a verdict express
ing the opinion that he was guilty of mur
der in the first degree.
Rewards aggregating $300 were offered
for the arrest of Crawford, but he suc
ceeded in eluding the officers.
Saturday night Crawford appeared in
Chipley very unexpectedly. He went to
the homes of several citizens and asked to
be allowed to remain over night. In
every instance his request was refused.
He then went to the home of his brother,
near Chipley, where he died, probably by
his own hand.
Death in Phenix City.—Mrs. Mollie
Riddle, wife of Mr. H. C. Riddle, died at
their home in Phenix City at 11 o’clock
Sunday morning, after a brief illness. She
was thirty-eight years old and a faithful
member of the Methodist church. Mrs.
Riddle leaves a sorrowing husband and
seven children. The remains were taken
to Youngsboro, Ala., for interment.

Ash Hopper Soap.
My conjugal wife is very easy to control when I
let her have her own way. And by high-handed
bribery that would make the Republican party
blush way down under its toe nails, I have been
known to have my own way one time—more or
less. But when she gets her head well sot on
makin’ homespun soap, and begins to entertain
in a hospitable style in her personal head the pa
triotic idea that it is my bounden duty, as a ti9n-
lecked—that is to say, as|a virtuous husband, to
ay down any important loaiing X may have on
hand and fall to and build her a modern Queen
Anne ash hopper, I had just as wel 1 haul down my
flag and do it, for (like Brer Silas Wegg. my feel
ings are so wrought down that I am obliged to
drap into poetry. Stand from under while I
drap)
The world couldn’t stopper,
Try it ever so hard
When she’s once inclined
And has made upper mind
To have an ash hopper
Built in the yard.
It don’t make no kind of difference to the likes
o’ her if soap is a cent a pound. She wants to bile
soap on principle, and nothing will lower the
temperature of her patriotism but that. I must
whirl in and dig a pine trough, slantin to the mid
dle, and, with rope and tekle, hist it on two
hickory forks with one eend higher than the other
and the other eend lower than totlier, and set out,
some more forks on each side and lay with impos
ing ceremonies cross pieces across ’em, and then
put in my boards and stop the cracks with cau
tion, and, at same time and place, line the struc
ture with shucks from the shuck pen and till it
up with hickory ashes from the new ground, and
then pour on my beei— L mean water—and plant a
pot to ketch—I liked to asaid water im regnated
with alkali—but its a lie, aud still its the truth.
(Such things .as that get me mixed up, but you
know what I mean.) I tell you privately its very
wearin on a city dude of my heavy emotional na
ture. Of course its a savin of the fat in the soap
grease gourd, but. at the present price of soap, I
can’t see, for the life of you, why a wash lady
should antagonize the truth by standing around
with her coat pinned back, stirring uo a lie with
a soap stick. Wild reader,|did you ever stand up
and think right hard about what you pa ; d for
y -ur laundry soap before a kind Providence and
the sheriff of Baldwin county prompted your
proud servant to take his foot in liis band and hop
up close enough to cast his lot on the East High—
I mean to say amidst you? Then there wou’d
have been a little h<rse sense inskimmin the dish
water and scrapin the cold gravy outer the plates
and layin up treasures in the soap grease gourd.
But all that is changed, as the fellow said, when
I gave him four ones for a live. It will pay me
for you to accidentally drap in and see how ch -ap
other folks buy soap often your Uncle John.
Soap at two for a nickle and 5c for pound aud a
half bars, and 10c for tw two pounds and a half,
&c, &c. Oh. beloved, if there is anything in this
warm, sloppy world that I am some punkin on, it
air shorely soap. And I ain’t no slouch on
matches, nyether. Not matrimonial ones, though.
But they are very much alike. Both are parlor
trix, and, after they are made, are followed by
friction and hoc, blazing times. I sell 3 boxes of
200 each for 5c, and 2 dozen of same for 35c. Round
wood boxes 10c a dozen. The manufacturers
have risen on soda in more ways than one, but me
and Mr. Soule Redd are still holding ourselves
down, and I still sell at same old price, 1% lbs for
10c or 4 lbs for 2”c. Of course you realize the fact
that it is impossible to dd sues a stock as I carry
on my mercantile back justice in an “ad,” and I
only mention these few Perns to give you an idet
of my moral condition. Do you run a store? If
so, why don’t you buy away from me at whole
sale? As a rule, I can save you money, and. If to
preserve my self-respect, I am forced to swindle
you a little, I guarantee to do it in a way that
will be mutually pleasant to the whole family.
My wholesale biz, so far, and no farther, has suc
ceeded my most bigity expectations, and still it
grows. In toys and fancy g<:ods especially, I am
well heeled. For your Xmas trix I can save you
a trip to Opelika. In not'ons and general 5 & 10
stuff, too, my sales in quantities this year have
been immense. I was forced to go into the whole-
sale biz in self-defence. You had as well put a
race horse in a ten foot ring aud not expect him
to chomp his bit as to try to coniine to the retail
trade a party whose hair is dripping with sun-
slrne.and who has 10,000 volts of business electric
ity waltzing up and down liis ten cents backbone.
But I will succeed. (I ought to a put that in cap
itals, but didn’t have a spellin book handy.) The
s me principles and interest that made me jump
over the stumps in the road to success at retail.
that kind that was paved yet.) In other words,
the SDiritof arrive there Eliism that I indulge in
to sell a paper of pius, will, by increasing the
dose, sell a dozen paperB. S > much for that. At
my own expense, I beg to say a few words to the
people who sit up nights and put in other spare
time cussing Holloway. For your own good 1
would say your time would be n ucli more profit
ably employed in keeping yourselves out of jail.
Holloway may be » fool or a crank, or both, but
let me give you a poinler. In this hard workaday
world a good, hard working, Practical crank who
succeeds always outranks, in the hearts of his
countrymen, the wh iling, carping, Solomon like
you, who, as a failure, is a glittering success, and,
as a success, is a red hot, sizzling failure. Hollo
way can t ike care of himself. As long as liis be
loved wile is able ‘o take in washi’g, Holloway

they would invite fair competition and
give to the people benefits of competition
and of cheaper production. If they did
not do so, he would be as ready to vote for
the repeal of the law as he now was to vote
for its passage.
Paddock next addressed the Senate.
Without malice toward any one, but con
strained by a sense of duty to the State
and section which he represented he
would vote against the conference report.
If it was purely a political question he
should cheerfully accept the judgment of
his party associates, bat he could not con
sider tiiis great economic problem as one
entirely political in its nature, affecting as
it did interests most vital to his immediate
constituency and the entire West. He
should not attempt to state in detail his
objections to the report, but should draw
particular attention to the action of the
committee upon the sugar schedule
and its relation to other protected inter
ests in the bill. He could not see the
benefits which would accrue to the people
by the sweeping away of the imports on
sugar when measured in connection with
the losses sustained by them through the
increases in the duties on many other arti
cles essential to life. Desirable as free
sugar was, when secured at the expense of
dearer clothing, dearer tin plate, dearer
earthenware, dearer cutlery, and so on, it
did not relieve the debit side of account
for the poor. In addition, when it had
proved an obstruction to the development
of the manufacture of sugar by the West
by commanding reciprocal trade with
other nations, it seemed to him ill-timed
and unwise. The subject was a business
one, and as a business man, representing
a business constituency, he felt justified in
expressing his approval or disapproval in
respect to the tariff bill, and in voicing
that approval or disapproval by public
utterance and by legislative vote.
The conference report was laid aside in
formally, without action.
Morgan offered a resolution, which was
agreed to, calling on the President for
copies of all orders and instructions issued
since March 1, 1890, to commanders of
revenue vessels and other officers respect
ing the regulation of the fur seal fisheries
in the waters of Alaska, or of Behring sea.
A concurrent resolution for a final ad
journment tomorrow was presented and
referred to the finance committee.
The House bill defining the duties of
the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of
Representatives was reported and passed.
Individual pension bills on the calendar
were then taken up and passed, forty-four
in twenty-five minutes. Among them was
one for the widow of a soldier of the war
of 1812, who had also been the widow of a
revolutionary soldier.
A House joint resolution authorizing
the use of a portion of the United States
military reservation at Chattanooga for a
public park by the city of Chattanooga,
Tenn., was taken from the calendar and
passed.
After a short executive session the Sen
ate, at 6 o’clock p. m., adjourned till to
morrow at 11 o’clock a. m., Aldrich stat
ing that he would not ask for an evening
session, as he was satisfied that a vote on
the tariff conference report would be
reached tomorrow.
