“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
jelieve that his father, who had been dead
everal years.had left money in the Bleeck-
•r Street Savings Hank. The lawyer made
m investigation, and found that his
■lient's father had an account there. It
vas 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 18:14. and had never been
touched. The claimant proved his iden

PERSONAL GOSSIP.
ANOTHER VICTIM.
BODY OF AN UNKNOWN NEGRO FOUND IN
THE BIVEB YESTERDAY.
About 1 o’clock yesterday afternoon
Coroner Robinson was summoned to the
Kyle plantation, about eight miles down
the river, to hold an inquest over the body
of a negro found in the river near the old
Indian monnd yesterday morning.
The Coroner answered the summons
promptly.
The body was that of a negro man, ap
parently about sixty years of age. It had
evidently been in the river for several
days. A pair of silver-rimmed spectacles,
an old knife and an empty pocket book
were found on the body. A slip of paper,
evidently torn from a note book, and a
small envelope were found in his pockets.
On the slip of paper, written in pencil,
were the words: “Bro. Bunnell, out in
Meehanicsville.” On the envelope, writ
ten in ink, were the words:
“Children Day $2.50. J. R. Stroud.”
No further evidence as to the identity
of the dead man could be found. No
marks of violence were found on the body,
and the jury returned a verdict of death
from drowning.
The only testimony introduced was that
of the negroes who found the body in the
river.
It is believed that the publication of the
articles and bits of writing found on the
person of the dead man will lead to the
discovery of his identity.
Coroner Robinson and members of the
jury returned to the city about 6 o’clock
last night.
The body of the negro was placed in a
coffin and given a decent burial.
PEOPLE WHO COME AND GO—HOW, WHEN
AND WHERE.
Mr. W. W. Campbell, of Cordele, is
a guest at the Central.
Hon. C. B. Grimes attended the East
Alabama Fair at Opelika yesterday.
Mr. S. A. Borum came in from Hurts-
boro last night and is stopping at tlie'Cen-
tral.
Mr. Joseph E. Bivins, a prominent and
influential citizen of Cordele, is auto
graphed at the Rankin.
Miss Jennie Evans returned to LaGrange
yesterday, accompanied by Miss Leila B.
Williams.
Mrs. F. J. Kohn and Miss Adele Buhler
have returned home from an extended
Northern trip.
Miss Lizzie Seabrooks, of Indiana, is in
the city, visiting the family of Mr. A. S.
Matheson, on lower Broad street.
Mr. John Stephens, of Cusseta, a mem
ber of the board of directors of the Col
umbus Southern road, is at the Central.

Miss Lucile Pou, a charming society
young lady from Auburn, is visiting the

Among the visitors at the Enquirer-

Camp Hill, and a very clever gentleman.
Judge W. B. Butt has returned from
Mississippi, where he has been for some

At the Theatre Tonight. — Miss
Amy Lee will appear at Springer Opera
House this evening in a new comedy
drama, entitled “The Clipper or a Child’s
Sacrifice.” Miss Amy Lee is a daughter
of Mrs. Chas. Howard, so long and favor
ably known, as one of the leading stock
actresses of her day. The title a “Child’s
Sacrifice” gives a very good idea of the
plot of the play, as the story tells of a
young girl who is reared among associates
who are a prey upon mankind and who
makes a number of sacrifices in favor of
her friends. There are a number of stirr
ing scenes and startling climaxes, and
Miss Lee, as the “Clipper,” shows some
strong dramatic ability. She is a clever
singer and dancer, and introduces during
the action of the play a number of new
songs and dances. Mrs. Chas. Howard
and a number of other well known favorite
actors and actresses are in the cast in
suring a smooth and even rendition of the
play-'”
Better Than the First.—The Troy
(Ala.) Messenger gives the following infor
mation: A large number of Troy and
Pike county people attended the Chatta
hoochee Valley Exposition at Columbus
last week. Those whom we have seen say
it surpassed the exhibit of two years ago,
which is saying a great deal.
Adjudged a Lunatic.—Mr. A. W.
Allday was tried for lunacy before a com
mission at the office of Ordinary Pou yes
terday. He was adjudged a lunatic, and
will be sent to the asylum at Milledgeville.
Mr. Allday is about twenty-eight years of
age and has a wife and children.
Runaway on Rose Hill.—A horse
ran away with Miss Annie Belle Redd on
Rose Hill yesterday morning. The young
lady was thrown from the buggy, but for
tunately escaped serious injury. A slight
ly sprained ankle was the extent of her in
juries. The buggy was badly demolished.
The Library' Festival.—Of course
everybody remembers that Monday, the
24th of November, is the time appointed
for opening the grand festival given by the
citizens for the benefit of the Public Li
brary.
Since the postponement from November
3 preparations havfi been quietly going on
by the different committees, and the festi
val will be the gainer in every way. Plans
are now matured, people understand each
other—and themselves, which is more to
the point—and harmony reigns supreme,
where before was chaos.
The sound of busy hammers is heard at
the library, the. stage is being lowered and
enlarged, and other happy thoughts turned
into actual facts.
Postals will be sent to parties promising
contributions notifying them when to send
iheir goodies. The city not having been
thoroughly canvassed before, committees
have been appointed to finish this work,
and between now and Monday many peo
ple will be made happy by charming calls
from our youth and beauty, who will hunt
in couples and are quite sure of their
game.
For the purpose of getting things thor
oughly organized the different committees
for taking charge of the festival are re
quested to meet at the library Saturday
afternoon promptly at 3 o’clock. Chair
men of same are earnestly desired to re
port at once to the librarian.
Hurrah for the tambourine dance! All
the girls will meet at the library Saturday
afternoon at 2:30.
The shoes for the german dance did not
get here until after the Kinness. What’s
the matter with repeating the dance with
the shoes? They add everything, and it
would be great fun. We give the sugges
tion to the entertainment committee free
of charge.
Only three more days, think of it, and
then the very biggest thing Columbus has
ever had! We liave had the best Exposi
tion, and now we are in for the best fes
tival ever given in the Sunny South.
Columbus Ahead.—Messrs. Springer
& Lewis, an enterprising firm of plumbers
and gas fitters of this city, secured the
plumbing and fittings for the new opera
house in Monticello, Fla., over competi
tors in Jacksonville,Americus,Thomasville,
Macon and numerous other points. The
work is nearing completion, and has given
the proprietors of the Monticello opera
house entire satisfaction. Columbus is
branching out in all directions and her en
terprising plumbers and gas fitters are
keeping pace with her wide-awake and
pushing wholesale merchants. Columbus
never gets left.
A RACE COURSE ACCIDENT.
VALUABLE HORSE INJURED—A GAL
LOWS BIRD.
Brunswick, Ga., November 20.—[Spe
cial.]—A sad accident occurred on the
race course, two miles from the city, this
afternoon. The race was between Mr.
Paul Castellano’s fast bay, Dollie, and Doc
Pander’s Texas. Five hundred people
were on the ground to witness it, and a
beautiful start was made. Castellano’s
horse was leading fast when the half had
been made, when a wagon loaded with a
large boiler came from the woods into the
track and struck Dollie with full force,
turning her a somersault, breaking her
leg and crushing her shoulder. The rider
was thrown fifty feet, but received
only slight injuries. The horse
now at the course, and the
surgeons doing everything possible to
save the animal without having to kill
her. The horse is the pride of Bruns
wick, and the accident is greatly regretted.
The purse was delivered to Ponder.
going to thf, gallows.
Henry Moore was taken from the jail
this morning by Sheriff Robertson, of
Wayne county, and carried to Jesup, where
he will hang tomorrow. Some hope was
entertained of a reprieve being granted by
Gov. Northen, but a message was just re
ceived saying:
The Governor refused this afternoon
to interfere with the sentence.
(Signed) “E. Smith, Attorney.”
Mr. Smith went to Atlanta last night to
see if a reprieve could not be secured.
Before leaving the jail Moore was bap
tized by Rev. Mr. Winn, his advisor, and
he says he is prepared to die. Before
taking the train he said to a reporter,
with tears in his eyes, “They may hang
me but I swear I am innocent.” The
general belief here is tliat lie is perfectly
innocent.
The crime was the murder of a peddler
at Jesup, last year.
SENATORIAL GOSSIP.
Montgomery, November 20.—[Special.]
—The Senatorial situation is still the all-
absorbing legislative question, and not an
instant since the time the caucus was fixed
has the interest flagged. The caucus meet
ings have been attended by every member
in the city physically able to be present
and on the roll calls every member keeps
his tally sheet and watches with anxious
interest any change which may be indi
cated as the ballot progresses and in spite
of the rigid ruling of Chairman Wiley, any
increase in the vote of a candidate is re
ceived with suppressed enthusiasm by the
friends of that candidate.
* * * *
The candidates bobbed up and down the
scale tonight, but everybody said that the
increase and decrease in the ballots
amounted to nothing. That it was only a
little political juggling and that in the end
the various candidates were only about re
ally as strong as when the first gun in the
battle was discharged. At least this is
what the supporters of each of the candi
dates said about the others, always ex
cepting their own favorite and asserting
positively that he was all right, and
whether ahead or behind his first vote, he
was all right, as would be found when the
general wind up comes.
* * * *
To take a stroll about the rotunda of
the Capitol during the session of the cau
cus, one would Had on any side some en
thusiast who was willing to swear
that his favorite candidate would
surely win the prize, and the
man totally unacquainted with the
extravagant assertions of politicians who
would chat with first one and then another
would be impressed with the belief that
hereafter the State of Alabama would
surely have four Senators in the upper
house of the National Congress.
* * * *
Among the young men of the House
who are prominent Seay leaders, are Rep
resentatives Pettus and Smith, of Dallas;
Sparkman, of Morgan; Rather, of Colbert;
Lane, of Limestone; and Sullivan, of Mo
bile. These are a few of Seay’s workers,
and they are a team.
A prominent Kolb man said to the En
QUIREB-SUN correspondent: “I am really
tired ot this talk about Pugh being the
choice of the people of the State. This is
all bosh. Kolb is the choice of the people
of Alabama, and to show you how
much we believe this, we are willing
to submit the election to the Demo-
ocratic voters of the State, and if all the
candidates would consent to go before the
people to have them name the Senator, I
would be willing not to claim the election
for Capt. Kolb if he did not receive more
votes than all the other candidates put
together. Any fair, reasonable and
well informed supporter of either
Governor Seay, Governor Watts,
Senator Pugh, will admit the correctness
of this statement. If the Senator should
go to the man who is the choice of the
whole people, why all this caucussing and
continual balloting? Kolb is the people’s
choice, nominate him.”
EXCURSION RATES TO OCALA.
Jacksonville, Fla., November 20.—
Commissioner Mann, of the National
Farmers’ Alliance and Industrial Union,
announces that the Pennsylvania railway
and the Atlantic Coast Line will sell on
the 28th and 29th inst. one fare round trip
tickets to Ocala, Fla., and return, good for
thirty days. The rate applies both to
delegates and the general public.
A FLORrDA BLAZE.
Wei.bobn, Fla., November 20.—The
ginning establishment of A. D. Hemming
burned here this morning. About, seventy
bales of cotton, and forty tons of cotton
seed were burned. The fire caught from
a match in the gin. The total loss is esti
mated at $8,000. No insurance.
STILL STULLIFYING PORTER.
New York, November 20.—The Brook

sus of that city. The estimates show it

HE WILL NOT GIVE UP HIS LEADERSHIP
NOW.
London, November 20.—Parnell has
sent to several of his colleagues a commu
nication to the effect that as long as he is
supported by his colleagues of the Irish
people, he will remain at the helm in poli
tics. He says that he has never sought
either office or reward of any kind from any
English party, and he does not seek their
assistance now. The Irish people, not the
English politicians, must decide the ques
tion of the leadership of the Nationalist
party. At the present critical juncture,
he would be false to his duty to Ireland if
he should desert his position because of
private matters with which politics have
no concern. When his mission is accom
plished and justice has been won for Ire
land after her long struggle against over
whelming odds, the people may choose
whom they will to conduct their local
affairs. If they desire others, as leaders,
they will be able to select the man of their
choice.

Honest Doctor*.
All honest, conscientious physicians who
give B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm) a trial,
frankly admit its superiority over all
other blood medicines.
Dr. W. J. Adair, Rockmart, Ga., writes:
“I regard B. B. B. as one of the best blood
medicines.”
Dr. A. H. Roscoe, Nashville, Tenn.,
writes: “All reports of B. B. B. are favor
able, and its speedy action is wonderful.”
Dr. J. W. Rhodes, Crawfordville, Ga.,
writes: “I confess B. B. B. is the best anil
quickest medicine for rheumatism I have
ever tried.”
Dr. S. J. Farmer, Crawfordville, Ga.,
writes: “1 cheerfully recommend B. B. B.
as a fine tonic alterative. Its use cored an
excrescence of the neck after other reme
dies effected no perceptible good.”
Dr. C. H. Montgomery, Jacksonville,
Ala., writes: “My mother insisted on my
getting B. B. B. for her rheumatism, as
her case stubbornly resisted tha usual
remedies. She experienced immediate re
lief and her improvement has been truly
wonderful."
Dr. G. W. Earle, Pickens, S. C., writes:
“I recommended B. B. B. to a man who
bad suffered for years with a malignant
ulcer on his leg, that seemed to resist all
orher treatment. After using four or five
bottles the ulcer began to heal and his leg
is now sound and well.”
How I Was Cured of So- Coiled .Cancer
Lula ton, Oa.
Dear SIR—This is to certify that I was a suf
ferer with a place on my underlip for fourteen
years, and was under treatment of different
physicians, but they done me no good. I had lost
hope of being cured by medical treatment. I
then went to a doctor' living in Florida, who
treated them by art. After going to him it got
well, apparently, for a while, nut returned as bad
as ever. I then concluded to try P.P. P. (Prickly
Ash, Poke Root and Patassium), and after taking
lire bottles (pint size) was cured. I also find it
to be a good medicine to give a good appetite and
to give proper digestion. Yours truly,
L. J. Strickland.
Wife, if your husband says his head
feels like it would split open, give him
Bradycrotine; he will not complain long.
Attention, Pule Fuse*
All the gentlemen who have signed the
petition for the purpose of organizing a
new tribe of the Improved Order Red
Men in this city, are requested to be pres
ent at Odd Fellows’ Hall tonight, for the
purpose of instituting the same.
All who desire to become charter mem
bers must be present or have the charter

Itailam’s Microbe Killer Co.,
Nashville, Tenn.:
Gentlemen—I have been troubled for some time
with an acute form of kidney disease, for the re
lief of which I have consulted several of the best
physicians in this city, but with no appreciable
benefits resulting from the faithful use of the
medicines ordered. I had lost th rtv or forty
pounds in weight, was naturally greatly reduced
in strength, and had frequent rigors which pos
sibly may have resulted from uremic poison.
Several weeks ago I concluded to give the Mi-
erobe Killer a trial, and the result of its use has
been gratifying to me and a surprise to my
friends. I have fully regained my' strength and
weight, suffer but little or no pain, have no re
currence of the rigors, appetite good, and have
the fullest confidence in a complete restoration
to health. I willingly recommend the Microbe
Killer as a remedy of great value.
Very respectfully,
_ , , _ Wm. H. Mrffert.

MY NAME
is Holloway .and on theUpson county hills my fath
er ted his flox. Go slow now; I know how to spell
fiochts as well as you do, but I just done that to
save time. Time is a great thing. It’s not mon
ey, though, or you would be as wed off as I am.
Sareiio Panza said, “God bless the man who first
got out a patent on sleep.” I think he might
have included time. You will think with me
when you liave to do two days work in one. as f
have had to do in the last long come short. A
gentleman in Hatchechubbie sont me word by
Johunie South yistiddy that if I didn’t
sober up and change my “ad.” pretty
Soon he would—always think I orter. But why
should I trouble so much about my “ads” when I
have more to do than I can say grace under? In
harvest time does a farmer gird up his plow lines
and waltz forth to sow? When suckers are biting
does the fasherman so far forget himself as to go
wasting his time baiting of a hole? I wot not.
And while I am in a wotling way 1 may as well
y° u wouldn’t do it nuther. I am too
nigh dru— broke down to say much but will try
and say some more anyhow. 1 have got pnurao*
nia, that is I have got new ammonia.
Abbreviate it a little and it’s new ’roonia.
Thought you would ketch me mixed up with a
lie, did you? I've got it in quart bottles for ten
cents for household and also domestic use. Di
rections to wash a pair of sox: Take a hundred
gallonsof the ammonia, or get somebody else to
take it, (alter meals). Then take and add a quart
of water. Then take a drink. Shake well. Let
it stand where it is. Now add your sox. Soke
well for sixty days. Then take sox out and as
sault well with a bat 1 ng stick. Rinch in two
rivers and dry over u fast fire. (Directions con
tinued on the bottle.) Lots more new goods that
L ought to mention, but am too weak. Can tired
human nature stand everything? Is a man made
outer gunjnu rubber’’ I am

A REFLECTION.
It needs no perception to see that a customer who goes away satisfied is
the best possible advertisement we can have, it is the best in two ways. It costs us
nothing, and is most profitable. We want advertisement of all kinds, all good kinds,
but most of it costs money. Therefore, when we find good advertisement which costs'
nothing, we are going to g"t, all we can. That is the reason we make every customer
a satisfied customer.
All we ask is your fair, unprejudiced attention. We guarantee results. We
have to back us the largest stock of Dry Goods, Shoes and Clothing in the city.
