TWO COMMONWEALTHS.
THE RECORD OF EVENTS IN GEOR
GIA AND ALABAMA
AS GLEANED FROM THE COLUMNS OF
Sl’KIGHTLT EXCHANGES AND SERVED
UP IN PLEASANT PARAGRAPHS.
A new bank is to be established in
Barnesville.
An electric light company has been or
ganized in Elberton.
And now it is Zebnlon, the ancient cap
ital of Pike, that wants a bank.
Major Wilkins, of Burke, cleared $3,000
this year on his surplus oat crop.
Conyers has had a big torchlight pro
cession in honor of the Democratic cy
clone.
George F. Latnpkin, a prominent real
estate dealer of Rome, died Monday night
of paralysis.
The Supreme Court has decided that the
recent election in Atlanta for the issue of
new water works bonds was i^egal.
Dr. L. B. Alexander, a prominent phy
sician of Forsyth, who has been in ill
health for some time, is dead.
Luther A. Hall, the Dodge county at
torney, is again on his trial in the Federal
court at Macon for perjury.
The total taxable property of Milledge-
ville is $800,000, an increase of nearly
$200,000 in the past year or two.
There are now 346 students in attend
ance at Milledgeville branch of the Uni
versity. Of these 184 are females and 162
males.
In Augusta the Recorder has ordered
cotton to be removed from the streets,
complaint having been made of it as an
obstruction.
The citizens of Reynolds are working to
erect a new Methodist church and will
hold a fair for the purpose of raising money
d uring December.
A depth of 1,330 feet has been reached
with the artesian well that is being bored
in Macon. It is expected that a good flow
of water will soon be encountered.
The Macon Telegraph says: There is a
growing dissatisfaction among the people
who ride on the street cars in regard ^o
the behavior of negro passengers.
A negro was on his way to Arlington a
few days ago with two bales of cotton on
his wagon. He was smoking his pipe and
in some way the cotton was ignited. The
damage was the loss of one bale.
Joe Finan, a well known New Orleans
hoodlum, who is wanted in that city for
burglary, was arrested in Mobile on Tues
day. He will be held in custody until the
.Sheriff of New Orleans arrives with the
necessary requisition papers.
Monday night the express car of both
through passenger trains on the Georgia
train between Atlanta and Augusta, were
robbed, and evidently by the same persons.
The trains pass each other at Carey sta
tion and at that point the robbers changed
from one to the other. The train leaving
Augusta was robbed of only $40 but the
other train from Atlanta netted the rob
bers uiouey packages amounting to $12,000.
The express messengers on both trains
slept soundly while the robbers were going
through their cars.
It is complained that even in a crowded
car the average negro will not rise unless
told to do so. Ladies of culture and re-
flnement have to sit wedged tightly be
tween negro laborers—an association
which they would not for a moment toler
ate anywhere else. The negro women are
often seen filling the seats, while white la
dies are standing. Then, nearly every ner
gro who boards a car carries a basket or
bundle that takes up as much room as a
grown person.
Taylor Hackett, a young white man,
committed suicide in the Liberty neigh
borhood of Greene county Monday night
by hanging himself with a plow line from
the limb of a tree. Young Hackett was
about twenty-two years of age and an in
dustrious farmer. It is supposed that un
requited love is at the bottom of it. He
has been paying marked attentions to a
young lady of that neighborhood, but his
suit did not seem to prosper. He was
moody and despondent for several days,
and last night left the house after all had
retired. Young Hackett not appearing at
breakfast, search was instituted and his
body was found swinging from the end of
a plow line which liad been thrown over
the limb of a tree. It is supposed that he
climbed up the tree, fastened the line to
the limb and to his neck, and jumped off.
His neck was not broken, and death re
sulted from strangulation. He was a quiet,
inoffensive, good-hearted young man, and
his rash act is keenly regretted by the
neighborhood.
Mr. W. fa. Kidd, an old Confederate sol
dier, who enlisted in the Independent
Rifles, Sixth Alabama, at Montgomery in
1861, and served gallantly throughout the
war, is slowly passing away at his home on
the Southside. His friends say that it is
only a question of a few days when the
end mnst come. Many a survivor of
Rhode’s Brigade will remember “little fifer
Kidd,” for his comrades say he was the
life of the regiment, and many a long win
ter evening during the days that “tried
inen’s souls” has been made to sparkle
with mirth by the jest of as gallant a boy
as ever wore the grey. Mr. Kidd has con
sumption.
It is reported that a colony of about
twenty-five Northern farmers have pur
chased 3,000 acres of land in Cullman
county, Ala., and will begin co-operative
fanning. There is to be a joint stock
company with a capital of $200,000,
limited to 200 shares, and no person can
have more than one share. The farm
work is to be performed by the sharehold
ers themselves and their families, and the
profits are to be distributed as dividends.
They expect to introduce manufacturing
as soon as practicable, as they have a for
est of valuable timber and an inexhausti
ble supply of coal.
A Mrs. Calhoun, living near Bessemer,
whilst engaged in washing some clothes in
her yard was attacked by a negro, who at
tempted to outrage her person. Mrs. Cal
houn fought the villain so fiercely that
finally, after a desperate struggle in which
she was fearfully bruised and beaten, he
was compelled to flee, being frightened off
by the noise of some one approaching be
fore he could accomplish his fiendish pur
pose. As soon as the news became known,
a posse started with dogs in search of the
scoundrel, and if he is caught there will be
no trial. ^
Sheffield Enterprise: Mr. Frank Knob-
lock, a well known resident of this city,
was crushed and suffocated to death yes
terday by a bank of dirt and stones caving
on him. He was engaged in hauling
gravel from the partly worked quarry on
the river-side drive to the park. Unfor
tunately, he failed to take notice of the
overhanging bluff, and while picking and
shoveling the dirt the slide occurred, bury
ing him fully three feet. A negro work
ing near him seeing the accident, rushed
to give the alarm. Forty-five minutes
elapsed, however, before the body was dug
from the packed dirt.

IN ALABAMA.
Scottsboro Citizen: Mr. Richard Mar
shall, of l’isgah, aged ninety-six years,
went to the election last Tuesday and voted
for Gen. Wheeler. He is the father-in-law
of Mr. C. O. Steele.
* West Alabamian: Squire James M.
Carver reports that lie made 1104 gallons
of sugar cane syrup on one-quarter acre of
land and put up 1,200 stalks for planting.
This was a good crop for one-quarter acre.
A dispatch from Tuscumbia says: Miss
Maria McKinney went to Florence this
afternoon to visit her cousin, Mrs. Mat-
tie Crittendon, whose little daughter lies
at the point of death. Some weeks ago
she ran a needle into her knee. A terrible
sore and a severe illness were the sad re
sults.
Florence special: There is a itumor
afloat that Mr. Hyde, who died a few days
ago, had a large sum of money liid out,
ami his heirs do not know where it is.
The amount is variously estimated at from
$3,000 to $7,000. While Mr. Hyde was a
good man and well liked he had peculiar
ways, and was thought by many to be
quite wealthy.
Tuscumbia special: The oldest Demo
crat in the State is Mr. John F. Pride—
“Uncle Jack”—who resides at Pride's
Station, on the Memphis and Charleston
railroad, eight miles west, of this city.
Should lie live until the 2<ith of August
next, he will have reached his one hun
dredth year. He is in the enjoyment
of excellent health, and retains all liis men
tal faculties to a remarkable degree.
What's the matter with the Wedowee
Observer? In a recent issue it lias the fol
lowing: One more move such as the ring-
sters made at Montgomery when they
forced on ! lie people of Alabama Thos. G.
Jones, over R. F. Kolb, who had consider
able majority in the convention, and who
l was defeated by foul and unfair schemes,
because lie was the friend of the laboring
people, will floor the grand old party, as
the returns of the present election plainly
show.

The Result of Experience.
Ladies :—Did you ever think about how injurious it is t« use so many cos
metics in attempting to hide pimples, blotches, sores, and ugly skin bumps?
These ugly places result from impure blood, and the only way to reach them is
through a Blood Alterative, such as W. W. C. It is purely vegetable and
oleasant in taste, mild in effect. Thousands of ladies will have nothing else,
ft leaves a beautiful complexion and smooth skin.
Greenville, Ala., May 29th, 1890.
W. W. C. Co., Columbus, Ga.—Gentlemen: I was terribly afflicted with boils and pimples on
sny face and back. Before commencing W. W. C. my back was so covered with blotches, 1
could not wear suspenders. My back is now entirely well, and after taking 9 bottles of
W. W. C. call myself perfectly cured. C. L. NEIL.

The Eminent Scientist
and Author, writes the
editor as follows:
“I think you have succeeded
in the very difficult task of im
proving on all existing liter
ary periodicals. The articles
deal with questions of vital
interest to every thoughtful
person, and they are all
well written, original, and
thorough, without being
heavy.
THE ARENA
The Boston Review.
Containing the best thoughts
from the greatest brains of the
age, on all social, ethical, religious,
and economic problems.
Each issue contains one
or more magnificent full-
paged portraits of leading
thinkers on plate paper.
an eminent author.
Rev. CYRUS A. BARTOl, D. D.,
The Distinguished New
England Clergyman,writes
as follows:
“The place that was wait
ing for a periodical, not only
free and able, but catholic and
comprehensive,—fair to every
thinker and just to all thought,
while open to any subject in
which ou«* common humanity
was concerned,—in my judg
ment you fill. The Arena
is wider and loftier than any
other broad or high church.
It is the most cosmopolitan of
any magazine in this country
or the world.”
PRESS COMMENTS.
WHAT LEADING CRITICAL JOURNALS SAY.
“ Full of mental stimulus, of breadth and vitality.” — Boston Traveler.
“The Arena is a fine magazine of the best writings.”—N. O. Picayune.
“ At the head of magazine literature of a superior sort, and is more particularly designed for
educated minds.”—New York Times.
“ From the beginning this periodical has shown a comprehensiveness and breadth of plan and
a liberality in its treatment of current questions of the day which have commended it to thought
ful readers everywhere.”— Evening Transcript, Boston.
“The Arena must be numbered among the comparatively few periodicals indispensable to
all persons who would keep in the van of current discussion regarding the important questions of
the day.”—Beacon, Boston. . . .
“ For enterprise, courage, liberality, and ability The Arena is conspicuous in the periodical
literature of the New World.”—Hartford Times. .
“ It fills a place between the Century and the Edinburg Review. Many distinguished con
tributors supply its pages with fresh and original papers, representing the latest phases of thought
in morals, religion, literature, and events. It is a progressive magazine, beautifully printed, often
illustrated, and strong in idea and character.”—Quebec Chronicle.
