MURDER IN RUSSELL COUNTY.
ONE NEGRO KILLS ANOTHER WITH AN
AX—THE MURDERER ESCAPES.
News reached the city yesterday of a
murder committed on the extension of the
Savannah, Americus and Montgomery
road, in Russell county.
It seems that a quarrel arose between
John Oates and another negro, who were
engaged in getting cross ties. John Munn,
the boss of the gaDg, ordered the two men
to hush. Oates continued to talk, where
upon Munn picked up an ax and dealt him
a blow on the head, crushing the skull and
scattering the brains on the ground. Oates
died in a very short time after being
struck.
Munn escaped and at last accounts had
not been captured. He is a dark, ginger
cake colored negro, about thirty years old.
He weighs 180 or 190, is five feet eleven
inches high and his hair is cut close to
scalp.
Munn has a wife at Columbia, Ala., and
his mother lives near Florence, Ga. He is
supposed to be making his way to one of
those points, and the Russell county au
thorities are keeping a sharp lookout for
him.
The killing is said to have been a cold
blooded murder.

MY TBAP

enough for one year, and I am going to rest on
my owers (the folks I owe) now and “Whistle and
Wait for Katie.” You will appreciate this, I
know. Guess you know who I am. I am “Hollo

day filling my wholesale orders till I am neai ly
gone “mit de spout up,” and the battle is just
opening. So I must stand up to the rack for a
few days longer, anyhow. You must be waited

cream of the market. Cost and quality are all closely considered to produce live buy
ing on your part, from $2.50 to $2.00 for Ladies and Children, also an immense line

tion rubbish, but honest reliable goods.
Table Linens, Towels, Napkins.
New line Table Damasks just opened from the best Belfast and German looms.
No more appropriate Christmas present than one or more of those elegant cloths, with
napkins to match, and a Christmas dinner hardly tastes as well without them. It dots
not take a fortune to buy them, as our ambition to sell has caused us to throw profits
overboard.
Flanne s, Blankets, Underwear.
Wonderful liow r those keen cash buyers find ont where their dollars will get the
most. Something similar to a run on a bank last week, only those who bought of us
got one hundred and fifty cents worth of goods for every dollar invested. You can do
the same this week. The stock is sufficiently large, no trouble to be suited.
Make the Men Happy.
It takes a great deal to make some of them that way. We might hint that if you
buy goods this week as lively as you ought, it will make us feel much better, but as we
have not started out to talk about ourselves, w r e desire to call your attention to the
many useful presents for men in our establishments, such as Collars and Cuffs, Shirts,
Neckwear, Gloves, Socks, Suspenders, Handkerchiefs, etc.
Skirts and Shawls must be sold, net cost, this week, to move them lively.
Twenty-five Buggy Robes, extra fine quality, 3-4 price this week. Calicoes, Sheet
ings, Checks, etc., at factory prices. We are determined to make Christmas week a
banner week of bargains. Don’t fail to call on us, and if we cannot make you a
Xmas present we can at least save you money enough to enable you to buy oue for
some one else.
Store will be open until 9 o’clock at night from now until December 26.
