—Mr. Banks Smith gave a birthday

—C. J. Goode, recently foreman of the
Columbus Evening j edger, on yesterday

News and Sun.
—Mrs. M. L. Wells, of Tennessee, or
ganizer of the Womans’ National Chris
tian Temperance Union, will be in the
city in a few days and will lecture in one
of the churches here next Monday night.
Mrs. Wells has been an officer of the
Union since 1879, and has the reputation
of being an eloquent and logical speaker.
An announcement in reference to her lec
ture here, will appear in a later issue of
the Enquirer-Sun.
—At the recent session of the North
Georgia conference the following named
ministers were transferred to the South
Georgia conference: A. J. Jarrell, C. E.

Georgia conference will meet in Macon
next Wednesday. A representative of the

sion.
—Hon. Thomas W. Grimes left for
Washington by the 1 o’clock train on the
Midland road yesterday. Immediately upon
reaching Washington, Mr. Grimes will
proceed to push the bill to establish a Fed
eral Court in Columbus. The indications
are that Mr. Grimes will succeed in hav
ing the measure passed. In this event, he
will urge the President to sign the bill for
a public building, which has already passed
both houses.
—The Enquirer-Sun is informed that
tlie amendment proposed to the charter of
the North Highlands Railroad Company
was defeated in the House committee by a
vote of seven to six. The bill has not yet
passed the House, but will probably be put
on its third reading today. In wha ever
shape it may pass the House, it will come

—Wright Hillman, a negro employed at
the Eagle and Phenix mills, dropped dead
on the porch at the house of Ory Middle-

years, was painfully injured yesterday
afternoon by being struck on the back of
the head with a rock thrown by a negro
boy. The rock cut a severe gash in the
little fellow’s head. The boy who threw
the rock escaped before the arrival of the
police, but he will probably be captured
this morning. Officer Rowe is at work on
the case.
—The Enquirer-Sun has been shown a
copy of the Aberfoil Star, the organ of a
literary society at Aberfoil, Ala. The pa
per contains eight pages of closely written
and well prepared matter, consisting of
poetry, communications, locals, editorials,

The copy shown is No. 5, volume 3. The
names of Miss Mattie Peterson and Steve
Knowles appear as editors. Among other
interesting articles which appear in the
paper is a communication from Mr. H. F.
Brown, of Columbus, in reference to the
recent Chattahoochee Valley Exposition.
The Little Ttcoon—Of the opera “The
Little Tycoon” which will be presented at
the opera house on next Saturday evening,
the 13th inst., the Atlanta Constitution
comments as follows on a recent presenta
tion in that city: “There is nothing more
entertaining or inspiring than a well pre
sented opdra. Such was given at De Give’s
opera house. A large and fashionable au
dience greeted it, and their emhusiastic
applause was a marked feature of the even
ing’s performance. ‘The Little Tycoon’ ot
Mr. Willard Spencer is certainly a very
justly popular opera. It is thoroughly re
fried, artistic and beautiful, filled with
catchy airs, pleasing situations and beauti
ful groupings aud scenic effects. Each
year ‘The Little Tycoon’ has been im
proved by its gifted and watchful composer,
until now it seems that it is as perfeci as a
presentation can be. The plot, within
itself, is thoroughly interesting; and as the
enunciation of tue principles is unusually
fine, it is easily followed and enjoyed. The
cenery is all fresh, appropriate, and in the
main, gorgeous. The costumes, dainty
and magnificent in trim, and the appoint
ments, in the entirety, are all that could be
wished. There are several members of the
company who have been with it ever since
its first presentation South, and there are
a number of new people equally clever. As
a whole and individually, the company is
excellent. In such a cast it is almost im
possible to select any as deserving special
mention. Mr. Will Mandeville, a com
edian wbo has done excellent work in
other roles as well, was the General Knick
erbocker. He acts well, and has a sweet
pure voice. Mr. Lebby as “Alvin Barry,”
Mr. Mealey as “Leddy” and Mr. Pacie as
“Rufus Ready” added greatly to the fun.
Miss Millard was a sweet and pretty “Vio
let,” while Miss Goldthewaite was “Out
of Sight” as Dolly Dimple. Her voice is
sweet, and she is besides pretty and charm
ing. Miss Ilosmer evinces great spirit in
the role of Miss Farricane, and is an im
portant feature of the whole. Too much
cannot be said of the work of the entire
company, and of the earnestness with
which they carried out their several roles.
“The Tycoon” as presented last night is
one of the most delightful performances
on the operatic stage, and the great crowd
that packed the house from top to bottom
said so in no uncertain way.

CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Marriage at Midland.—Mr. W. H.
Harvey, of this city, was married at Mid
land at 6 o’clock last night to Miss Eddie
Willis, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. P.
Willis, of that place. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. C. C. Willis, the ven
erable grandfather of the bride, in the
presence of a nurul>er of relatives and
friends of the young couple, including a
good many friends of the groom from this
city. The bridal party reached the city by

A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS APPLIED FOB
AND GRANTED.
Yesterday Solicitor-General Carson was
served with notice that an application for
a writ of habeas corpus in the case of
Bichard and Robert Howard and James
Bickerstaff, charged with thd murder of
Thomas Colbert Dawson, had been issued
by Judge Allan Fort, of the Americus Cir
cuit. The solicitor is notified to appear
before Judge Fort at Americus next Mon
day to show why the application of peti
tioners should not be granted and the
prisoners admitted to bail.
Americus is the place named for hear
ing the case.
If it is convenient for Judge Fort to
come to Columbus, it would probably give
more general satisfaction, as this is the
most accessible point to the parties con
cerned in the case and as there is such
great interest felt in the trial here.
A letter was addressed to Judge Fort
yesterday, asking him to hear the case in
Columbus, if convenient to do so.

The Opera Tonight.—Mr. Moroso,
the city editor and competent musical
and dramatic critic of the Charh-ston
News and Courier, wrote the following
about tlie performance of “The Gypsy
Baron,” by Conried’s Comic Opera Com
pany in that city recently:
As to the “Gypsy Barou,” it was its first
presentation in Charleston, and was cor
dially received. To put it in the words of
a distinguished Frenchman who heard
“Lohengrin” on Saturday night, “It is as
brim full of melodies as j‘Lohengrin’ was
of recitative.” And so it is. The score
has the merit of quaintness, at least, if not
of originality. It is full of brilliant waltzes
and polkas and marches and ensembles,
aud it is altogether musical and
melodious. It took the audience by storm,
and encores were the order of the night
from Barinkay to the grand march of the
Royal Hussars. There is a suggestion of
Trovatore in the Gypsy chorus in the
second act, and a suspicion of the Sullivan
style in Homonay’s recruiting song, but it
is Strauss all the way through.
The comic “business” of the opera was
in good hands. Mr. Hartman made an
excellent pig dealer and an equally effect
ive hussar.
The piece was lavishly mounted, the
artists were in splendid voice and the au
dience most enthusiastic,not more so, how
ever, than the rendition of the opera de
served. The groupings and stage settings
were beautiful. The second act was per
formed with all the care and artistic detail
grand opera. The evolution in the third of
act, in which a number of girls appear,
was greeted by the audience with hearty
applause.
Officers Elected.—Mount Herman
Lodge No. 304, F. and A. M., held a meet
ing last night and elected the following
officers for the ensuing year:
Worshipful Master—A. M. Elledge.
Senior Warden—G. O. Berry.
Junior Warden—O. W. Wakefield.
Treasurer—A. Wittich.
Secretary—G. O. Rudin.
Chaplain—Dr. Robert H. Harris.
Senior Deacon—James J. Gilbert.
Junior Deacon—J. B. Mell.
Tyler—J. H. Rhodes.

ranging for a joint installation of officers

event promises to be an interesting occa
sion in the history of Masonry in Colum
bus.
Glenn-Chaffin.—Mr. Charles L.
Glenn and Mrs. Janie Chaffin were mar
ried at 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon at the
home of the bride on Fourth avenue. Dr.

Then I grew deaf and could not hear at

Dwelt in ot old by Chris optaer Columbus.
Its noble aspect, story above story.
And rich in wast nests, by dirt-dobbers built,
Will long detain you; but bef >re you go.
Enter the hous —forget ii not, I pray—
And gaze awhile upou the bargains tnert.
If you do 1*11 never regret it; and there is one
time that I am fa riy houin for you to come, and
that is the week beginning Dec. the 8th and last
ing 15 day*. Year befoie last I exhorted you not
to wait till the last uay in the inornin’; to come
and select >our toys before the rush got to
rushin*, aud i«t your Uncle Holloway put them
;way for you. But you were auspicious then and
thought it just a business sen^me, and some of
you went so far too far as to tell me to my own
private face that “your money was just as good
• s anybody else’f, and that you reckoned as how
you would gut waited on, b. gosh.** Bless your
sauctilireu hearts, you idu*t Mem to realize other
folks had money too, and hat i was ust as good
as yours All 1 c >uid do then was to blush a deep
garnet all over and let you see for your sweet
self. And you saw to your shay green and my
sor ow. Both ot us failed to get what we mutu-
aiy ha keiedaft r. When 1 & kw\cu go eut with
in ney in your pocket that }Ou wanted to spend
with me, but cou dn’t be? ause 1 was waiting on
c?ouie one else, whose money was as good as
>ours, honestly 1 never was so shame mlny life.
Last year you did a litt e better. You had learned
tuat all is not “Grass’ that glitters in my wild,
restless eyes. You had learneu that tne truth
w r ll nnx- d with modem iou, jud eiously handled
aud temperatel> indulged in, will sometimes an
swer f.,r common every day use as well as a false
hood. Aud I feel encOt-rag d to Srty come once
more. You know why it’s to your advantage as
well as 1 do. You kuow you cannot bu.> goods
w ith judgement and eclat in a rammed, jammed,
packed and singing mass of humanity, all talk
ing and scrouging and buying aud begging to be
waited on. Now it you nave the honor to be one
of those pitiful, miserable specimens of inhu
manity Yvho think that ever* man behind the
counter is a liar and a thief, who has planted
himself there with his snares and his pitfalls for
the special purpose of robbing your poor inno
cent saintly self out of your hard earned ui kels,
why, then, of course I don’t expect you to believe
a word i say. And if your neighbor were to tell
y ou that Holloway ba r never yet been caught in
a falsehood about his Christmas Eve c owds, you
would ihiuk Holloway hired him to lie lor him.
As if Holloway wasn’t big enough to do his own
lying. To continue: Monday, the 8th, the ball
will open in earnest, owing to my want of room
I will be obliged to put away a great many staple
go^os—good? that sell all the year round, and
make space for my toys. What you don’t s-e ax
lor it. Every inch of available room will be
loaded down with toys and holiday goods. I’ve
got to do it. I’ve got toys to set old Miss Michell.
Dolls from 5c to 7 c. Wax dolls, china limb
dolls, bisque head dolls, Japanese dolls, negro
dolls, dolls with hair, bald-headed doiis, all sorts

articles in the regular line of goods that are ele
gant things for holiday gifts. A \ T ery sentimental
and at same time biutfui gift from a husband to
his own private wife is a luc wash board. Young
lady, give your sweetkea:t a pair of sox, it’s
what he needs. Froa a wile to a husband,
Yvhnt’s the matter with a pair of suspenuers or a
clean handkerchief? In crockery, tin ware,
glass ware, yeilow ware, Yvooden ware, etc., are
Christina gilts galore. I have some fine blown
tumblers engraved with a picture of a jailer
hammer or some kind of burd settiu* on a swing
in’ limb takin’ s ock of the burd fruit in his
wife’s nest. Oh, I’ve got thousands and hundreds
of nice things that would be i-ice, usef ul and ap-
piopiate for the occasion. Ta e the ass’t I have
mentioned and multiply it bv teu. and it would
not nirt.il or express my feelings on this subject.
Come while it is yet time. My old woman has
been de ilin’ me foi a jear to get her a pair of
shoes. She shall have them for a Christmas
present— hat is if you com**. Adi know you
will come. Now wishing you and your folks a
merry Christmas and a happy new year, I am
yours in broken doses,
