DAILT KNQtJIBEft-SUfl: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, WEDiNESDAT MORNING, OCTOBER 22, 1890.
“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
t,, 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 Hank. The lawyer made
an investigation, and found that his
client’s father had an account there. It
wns opened away back in 1830. Four
years afterward he evidently intended to
close it, for lie drew out all the money de
posited except 810. This 810 had been
there since 1834, and ha-1 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 1S34.”—-New York Star.

home since the adjournment of Congress,”
said he, “and consequently have had but
little opportunity to find out what is going
on. I do not think there will be any extra
session of Congress called, ai there is no
particular reason for it, unless to pass the
Federal election bill, and I hardly think
it will be called for that purpose. As I
remarked to Steve Postell, since he has
quit the newspaper business and I have re
tired from politics, we can now afford to
he honest, and I propose to go to work at
my profession to keep from taking hold of
the plow handles, as some people remarked
that we would have to do.”—Atlanta

A HAPPY MARRIAGE.
MR. HARRY H. DANIEL AND MISS MAMIE
HARTMANN UNITED IN THE HOLY
BONDS OF WEDLOCK.
One of the most pleasant society events
that Columbus has witnesses in a long
time was the marriage yesterday after
noon at 4 o’clock of Miss Mamie Hartmann,
youngest daughter of Mrs. Mary L. Hart
mann, and Mr. Harry H. Daniel. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. Father
Schlenke in his usual happy, but impress
ive manner, and all who witnessed it pro
nounced it one of the most beautiful mar
riage seremones they had ever seen. At
the south end of the large parlor stood a
magnificent mound of red and white roses,
surmounted by a cross of the same pretty
flowers. The handsome couple, preceded
by Mr. A. A. IVillcox and Mr. G. Ed.
Burras, marched into the parlor and faced
this lovely mound of natural roses, when
the ceremony was performed.
Miss Mamie is one of the prettiest and
sweetest young ladies of the many fair
ones who dwell in Columbus, and she
never looked sweeter than when she
plighted her troth last afternoon, dressed
in a becoming traveling costume.
There is not a better business man, a
more successful young merchant, in the
whole city than Mr. Harry Daniel. Young,
endowed with extra fine business qualifi
cations, he bids fair to make his mark in
the commercial world.
The popularity of the bridal couple was
fully attested by the numerous and costly
presents received, among which was
solid silver set, the gift of Mrs. Mecheka,
of New Orleans, sister of the bride, and
her husband.
Mr. and Mrs. Daniel left immediately
after the ceremony on the Georgia Mid
land for Atlanta, Louisville and other
points, carrying with them the best wishes
of a host of friends for a pleasant trip and
safe return.

Library Notes.—The Library was
made the richer yesterdav by the receipt
ot Stanley’s In Darkest Africa. The work
is in two volumes aud is beautifully gotten
up with a substantial, handsome binding
and a great many illustrations. The Life
ol Goethe, by Lewes, came also, and from
a brief glance at its contents seems to de
serve its reputat ion as the very best work
on Goethe. A Social Departure, by Miss
Duncan and Mm. Custer's Following the
Guidon are having a great run. The first
is pronounced “perfectly charming,” and
lie other “very interesting;” so the reader
must judge for himself in the race. They
are both at our library of course.

LOWER FREIGHT RATES.
A FIVE-C'ENT REDUCTION ON COTTON TO
EASTERN MARKETS.
Mr. Clifton Jones, the popular and
active general freight and passenger agent
of the Georgia Middling road, informed
an Enquirer Sun reporter yesterday of a
reduction of 5 cents on cotton from Colum
bus to Eastern markets.
This reduction is made, by authority of
the rate committee of the Southern Rail
way and Steamship Association. The new
rate took effect yesterday. Mr. Jones ap
peared before the rate committee in New
Yoi k a short time ago and made a strong
argument in favor of the reduction. A
short time ago the Central and other
roads centering here agreed to reduce
the rate on cotton from 45 to 40 cent from
Columbus to South Atlantic ports. This
reduction was an important item, and
placed Columbus on an equal footing with
other important cities. An appeal for
corresponding reduction to Eastern points
was then made, so that buyers for the
Eastern mills would be placed on an equal
footing with exporters. The rate com
mittee of the Southern Railway and Seam-
ship Association saw that reduction asked
was fair and just and granted it as soon as
the matter was fully investigated.
Under the new order the rate on cotton
from Columbus to Boston is 66 cents, as
against 71 cents by the old schedule. A
corresponding reduction is made on cotton
to Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore and
all eastern points.
OTHER RAILROAD NEWS.
The Savannah News says: General
Manager Gabbett, of the Central railroad,
left for New York last night on business
for the road. The weekly report of Mr.
Gabbett’s resignation was put in circula
tion yesterday, originating in Augusta this
time, but officials of the Central railroad
spoken to about the matter said it was only
the same old canard.
The demand for freight cars is so great
throughout the country that the car shops
cannot build them fast enough. Every
ear-building factory in the country is run
ning night and day, still the number of
new cars does not appear to fill up the
great gap. The different railroads have to
take part of their orders in turn, as tiie
shops cannot fill any one order entire, but
divide the number up among the different
roads in proportion to the size of the
order.
An Unusual Event.—The announce
ment of the union of two such brilliant
stars of the profession as Frederick Warde
and Mrs. D. P. Bowers, who appear at the
Springer Opera House next Saturday
night in the classic drama, should insure a
very large audience. Each has heretofore
headed an organization of their own, and
each has individuality established and ex
cellent artistic reputation and proven
highly successful financially. A merrito-
rious company will materially enhance the
beauties of the play. The environments
such as the scenery, costumes and effects
are rich in appearance,costly in texture and
historically correct in architectural design
and coloring. Henry VIII. will receive
its initial representation here by the
Warde-Bowers Company. Manager Spring
er intends to maintain a moderate sched
ule of prices, considering the importance
of the attraction.
THE MOBILE AND GIRARD RAILROAD
WILL GET OVER 100,000 ACRES,
Although Congress passed a general
forfeiture bill at its last session, the Mobile
and Girard railroad will coine in for a
large body of land, somewhere between
100,000 and 120,000 acres. The road will
zet this land under an amendment by
Congressman Oates to the general forfeit
ure bill, which was accepted and adopted
as a part of that measure. This amend
ment authorized the road to select and
secure land already earned by the partial
building of the line as contemplated when
the original grant was made.
The directors of the company have ac
cepted the provisions of the bill, which
secures to the road the number of acres of
land above stated.
President Banks said yesterday that
work on the western extension of the Mo
bile and Girard road was being pushed
forward rapidly iu the direction of Flama-
ton, at which place it will intersect the
Louisville and Nashville road.
“The extension of the Mobile and
Girard road to Flomaton means a great
deal to Columbus,” remarked a gentleman
well versed in railroad matters yesterday.
“It will put Columbus on the shortest line
from New Orleans to the East. Such a
line could not fail to become popular with
the traveling public and for the transpor
tation of freight and merchandise.”
It is thought by well posted railroad
men that the uew line will become one of
the most popular routes in the South.
Returned With His Bride.—Mr. Pal
M. Daniel reached the city with his bride
yesterday at uoon, and during the after
noon received warm congratulations from
many of his friends in the city. Mr. Dan
iel was married last Wednesday afternoon
at Bradfordsville’ Ky., to Miss Virgie
Isaacs, eldest daughter of Mr. B. N.
Isaacs, a prominent and wealthy farmer
of that place.
In a notice of the marriage the Brad
fordsville correspondent of the Lebanon
Enterprise says:
‘The gallant groom shows admirable
taste in coming even from Columbus, Ga.,
as he captures one of the fairest of our own
fair Kentucky girls. As soon as Elder
Lucy had tied the knot and bound it with
the befitting garlands, we were ushered to
a repast so sumptuous, elaborate and ele-
antly prepared, that my mouth waters
even yet with the many delightful flavors
still lingering upon my palate and mem
ory.
‘We regret to say that Mr. Isaacs and
family will go with their daughter and
new found son to their home in the
South. They have lived long in our
midst only to be more and more loved
and honored, and in their departure take
the hearts of all who knew them. We
know that we but voice the earnest desire
of all the lovely bride’s devoted friends
who bade her a tearful adieu, when we
hope that ‘that fair land where the sun
makes everything that it shines on glad,’
will deal gently with our fair Kentucky
flower.”
A BRILLIANT AND HAPPY SOCIAL EVENT
LAST NIGHT.
The elegant residence of Mr. Edwin C.
Estes, No. 1120 Third avenue, was the
scene of a brilliant and happy social event
last night, the occasion being the marriage
of his sister-in-law, Miss Carrie Howell, to
Mr. Herman M. Estes.
The ceremony was performed promptly
at 8 o’clock by Rev. Dr. W. A. Carter, in
the presence of a large assembly of the
relatives and friends of the contracting
parties. The ceremony was a solemn and
beautiful one, the fair blushing bride and
handsome groom appearing at their best as
the minister pronounced the words which
linked their lives together forever.
The parlors and reception rooms were
beautifully and artistically decorated with
cut flowers and evergreen from the con
servatory of Mrs. Sauls. The decorations,
and especially the banks of roses on the
mantels, attracted the favorable attention
of the guests, and the taste and skill dis
played by Mrs. Estes in the arrangement
of the parlor and reception and supper
rooms excited praise on all sides.
After the ceremony an elegant repast
was served, during which Chase’s orches
tra discoursed sweet music, which har
monized charmingly with the pleasing sur
roundings.
Among the guests present from other
cities were Miss Annie Redd, of Birming
ham ; Miss Mamie MacCrea, of Memphis,
and Mr. John Cocke, of Memphis.
The groom is an old Columbus boy, but
is now one of the most prominent and sub
stantial business men of Tuskaioosa, Ala
The bride is an accomplished, lovely and
amiable young lady and a general favorite
in social circles in Columbus.
Mr. Estes and bride left for their future
home in Tuskaioosa by the II o’clook
train last night, and it is needless to say
that they carried with them the best
wishes of their friends in Columbus.
FCNER1L NOTICE.

Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Baldwin and family are re

lisle, the young white man arrested by

night, was placed under bond in the sum
of $50 by the Mayor for carrying com
cealed weapons. The old warrant under
which Carlisle was arrested charges him
with a misdemeanor. He is also wanted

A Good Day’s Woik.
Weakness of itself is not a disease. It
is, however, a most distressful symptom.
Alas ! how many wearily drag themselves
about, every effort giving them distress,
existing without any of the pleasurable
sensations of robust health. Are you in
this condition ? Why ? There is no ex
cuse for feeling mean and miserable. Re
move the cause of your distress, which
undoubtedly is a state of blood impurity
and a disordered system. How ? Why by
doing as others have done.
G. W. Chandler, Red Fork, Ark.,
writes: “I was so weak that it was only
with great effort that I could do anything.
I used several bottles of Botanic Blood
Balm, and can now do a good day’s work.”
“Able to do a good day’s work!” Is
there not something sweet and refreshing
in that expression? Strength to vigorously
do this or that. Strength that is only
overcome by natural fatigue. Strength
that when expended is by rest and nature
fully renewed. Such will be your reward
if you give B. B. B. a trial.
H. B. Randolph, Brunswick, Ga,, writes:
“I was under the care of nine different
doctors, but not one did me the good that
Botanic Blood Balm has done me.”

BARXCM, THE GREAT.
Dangerous in Damp Weather.—An
electrician said to a reporter yesterday that
people should steer clear of electric wire
poles in damp weather, like we are now
having. Said he: “In damp weather the
poles serve as conduits, and there is
sometimes danger to life. Some days ago
a gentleman in New Orleans came very
near being killed by placing his hand on
an electric wire pole. Electricity is now
of great use to commerce, but .is very
dangerous. One thing must be done, and

Brafiycrotine cured Headache for John
Flannery, Savannah, Ga.
Having Conquered the Old World He Re
turns to Delight the New.
John Bull was wont to poke fun at us in
a ponderous way for what he was pleased
to call “the Barnum craze.” How is it
now with him? Barnum went over there
with his Greatest Show on Earth, grasped
him by the horns with managerial hand,
and turned his head until his eyes bulged
with wonder and he bellowed with delight.
The octogenarian victor has returned and
on tomorrow will bring to Columbus the
tremendous exhibition of which the Lon
don Times says:
“The surpassing greatness of the show
no vain boast. Multiplying circuses
and platforms and entertainments, each of
which can directly appear only to some
particular section of the massed spectators,
may appear at first sight to be a waste of
energy aud talent, but there is no denying
the impressiveness that it lends to the
show as a whole. The spectator feels him
self oppressed by the variety of the efforts
made for his entertainment. Space fails
us to note all the striking features of a
program, which is almost as complicated
as a railway time-table.”
And now Messrs. Barnum & Bailey have
revolutionized the show business by adding
to their enormous free street parade, men
ageries, circuses, trained caravans, super
natural illusions and other features, Imre
Kiralfy’s glorious and triumphant, classic,
historic spectacle of “Nero; or the De
struction of Rome.” Europe was fairly
dazed at the magnitude and magnificence
of this production, and the London press
pronounced it unparalleled beyond descrip
tion. The London Daily Telegraph said :
“The tragic story which threads the
scenes together, and which is told in dumb
show, is difficult to follow without the
book, but the incidents are so forcible that
they scarcely need the dramatic motive
which has been supplied. Changes of
scenery are so dexterously contrived that
the illusion is never destroyed, and we
seem to be living in the Rome of ancient
days. The triumphal procession of Nero,
with the richness of the dresses, the luxury,
pomp and extravagance of the Roman
Court, affords a coup d’oeil of rare beauty
and of imposing dimensions. Some 1,200
supernumeraries appear in the pageant,
and from end to end the spacious arena
blazes with scintillating light and resplen
dent colors. Choral music, composed and
directed by Signor Angelo Venanzi, of
Milan, is introduced with fine effect
during the representation. Last ni ;ht the
tableau of the Circus Maximus was added
for the first time. It framed, as it were,
the Olympiam games, comprising foot
races, wrestling matches, eiephant races,
and more exciting than all, the intensely
real competitions between the charioteers,
some of them having teams of four horses.
Newly arranged, the concluding festal
dances were snch as to defy description,
for the full extent of the scene cannot be

This is to certify that I have been afflicted with
Scrofula, or Blood Poison, for a number of years,
The best physicians of .Mobile and this city said
nothing could be done for me. 1 also took :i large
quantity of , but found no relief in any
thing that I took. My limbs were a mass of ul
cers, and when 1 was sent to a physician in Mo
bile my entire body was a mass ot sores. 1 had
given up all hope, and as a last resort tried P P.
P. f Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium, and
after using four bottles (small size) the sores
have entirely disappeared, and my general health
was never better that at the present time, and
people that know me think it a wonderful cure.
