STRIKE IN SCOT-
December 24.—There are no
a , I1S of improvement in connection with
irlroail strike in Scotland. It is esti-
.. , that about 7,500 men are now on a
, k,. and business may be said to be at a
itindstiil. ,,n tbe ^' orth British line
jU c j s su-iii'iided, while others are work-
in an im'uular manner. The business
• 'opb- residing on the suburbs are obliged
w;l jk from their out of town resi-
, v to the city, thereby suffering much
•^..convenience. In and about Glasgow the
^ of coal has already advanced seven
-hilliniis per ton, with the prospect of a
;il further advance in price before long,
i,, a idition to the coal trouble, which se-
7'iim-'ly affects the poorer classes already,
• p vaid that a gas famine is imminent,
the police are already taking steps to
vide a force of special constables to
i:trd the city in case the supply of gas
...uid give out, and the city be plunged
darkness at night. All the
•hill-building yards and public
are without fuel, and they expect to
], forced to close their doors unless the
■tike is settled within a very short time.
- ! on_ r detachments of police are guarding
railroad depots, which are surrounded
, crowds of strikers, accompanied by their
vivos and families, who jeer and laugh at
bungling efforts of the railroad porters,
i.npmen, sweepers, clerks and others,
who have been pressed into the service,
now to them, of making up and running
few trains which the railroad officials
anage to dispatch.
THE WAR IS ON.
V -TUIlIUiHX CONTEST CONFRONTS THE
ANTI-PAKNELLITES.
In ui.i.v, December 24.—The United
and, today, referring to the recentelec-
>n in North Kilkenny, says: Kilkenny
i- d 'dared for Gladstone against Parnell.
1'iio battle was fought with every weapon
! hatred, malice, ingratitude and
i. c hery could supply. Behind the
uilineers wore the priests, eager
:n regain tiie power Parnell se
ine! for Ireland ten years ago.
The) sanctioned methods of warfare hith
erto unused and open fighting was supple
mented by intimidation. Although this
omhinat ion secured victory in Kilkenny,
it must li'- remembered that Kilkenny is
not Ireland. They shall be. forced to re-
n -w the wage of battle at every spot on
Irish soil, from the center to the sea.
The Freemans Journal says that Parnell
starts for Paris tonight, in order to meet
his “trusty lieutenant,” William O’Brien.
Parnell, according to the Jcffmnal, refuses
to believe that a friendly conference be
tween O’Brien and himself will be barren
iif results until they have defiuately failed
o establish a modus vivendi.

ed. Mr. 11. Murphy has sold out the
.'.land Central block, that was burned out
last week, to Mr. Frank C. Owens, the

FOUND DEAD.
A negro by the name of George Kennet
,vas Knud dead with his head lying on the
( ini of a crosstie of the Air Line railroad
Monday morning. The jury of inquest
found that he came to his deatli from a
pi-.oi shot wound. It was also found that
Ki'imet, with other negroes, in the Bruns
wick and Western railway camps,
near by, were gambling Sunday
night, and that the killing was the
outcome of the game. It seen s there
are no regrets at his death, as he was a
desperate character, having already served
two or three terms on the city chain gang
for different crimes against the laws of the
state, and only last week he snatched a
sum of money, said to be $50, from a
man’s hand and was being watched for
by the officers when he was found dead.
So it goes with law-breakers, sooner or
later.
A LOUSIANA TIGER.
The old veterans’ meeting here Saturday
developed the fact that there is one man
here of one of the most famous commands
in the Southern army, and that man is Mr.
George Arneritch, one of the original mem
bers of the Louisiana Tigers. Mr. Arneritch
is at present carrying on a fruit and con
fectionery business on Plant avenue. He
informs me that there is a gentleman liv-
ng in Brunswick who was a captain in the
same fatuous command.
THE Y. M. C, A.
1 omitted to mention in the proper place
that the Y. M. C. A. had securt d tempo
rary quarters, since the big fire, in the hall
over J. S. Sharp’s wholesale grocery
house until the rorms in the Johnson
building can be completed. The associa
tion will have a benefit concert at the
opera bouse on the Oth of January.
The county election seems to be quite a
still affair in this county t lere If ing 0 >p-
positum to any of|the nominees except fo'
Coroner. Mr. J. Grimes, the present i t-
c.unbent, who was defeated in the nomina
tion by Mr. John Booth, is running inde-
p ndent, but is destined to a worse defeat
than the first.
A WHISKY DISTILLERY' BURNED.
Nashville, December 24.—The ware-
muse and distillery of Stephens & Co.,
near former's Station, burned last night,
•member with 750 barrels of whisky. The
lo - was about $18,000 on the whisky and
$2000 on the house and machinery. The
nisi ranee on the whisky was $14,000. The
fire is supposed to have been incendiary.
The Government revenue tax on the whis
ky destroyed would have amounted to
about $28,000.
SAI.ES OF LEAF TOBACCO.
Danville, Ya. December 24.—The
sales of leaf tobacco in this market for
December were 1,488,763 pounds. The
sales since October 1st, the beginning of
the tobacco year, were 9,528,440, an 1D "
crease of 1,091,000 pounds.
ENQUIRER - SDN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1890.
GIFTS FOR WOMEN.
What Men May Give to Their Fair Com
panions for Birthday Presents.
The platonically friendly man rarely
thinks of jewelry, and I am glad of
it, for even simple ornaments a well
bred girl dislikes to accept or refuse, and
there are many other little remembrances
she would more gladly welcome. For
instance, leather is an outlet for iffy
men friends' generosity, and among
other things I have a collection of beau
tiful card cases various persons have
given me.
They are made of the finest perfumed
and tinted skins, lined with silk, pro
vided with silver screw pencils, some
times a tiny watch, and besides a pocket
for cards one for change and little slips
to pull out, on which are daintily etched
calendars for the year. My last acquisi
tion came from Paris. It is gray' green
veined leather, highly polished and dot
ted over with tiny bright silver fleur-de-
lis. To match it was a scrap of a purse
provided with many little nooks and
pockets, and decorated with the silver
flowers.
Another good friend gave me what he
calls my set of books for daily 7 business.
They are three square, gilt edged vol
umes, bound in leather as fine and sweet
smelling as rose leaves. On the covers
my crest and monogram are deeply
stamped in gilt, and on the title hacks
are written respectively accounts, en
gagements and addresses. Inside Ihe
one for accounts is comfortably ruled off
and noted, so that one knows where
those puzzling lists of figures should go.
“Engagements” has stated pages on
which one jots down memoranda of
events to come, “Addresses” has the
leaves alphabetically arranged, and the
three books are held together by r a little
strap and catch button like those on
books of prayer and hymnals. A gift of
that kind is in constant use, and one is
always reminded of and pleasantly grate
ful to the giver.
Another pretty leather toy for a wom
an is a traveling inkstand. They come
in numberless devices, and nothing is
more unique than a miniature Glad
stone bag, perfect in detail, even to a
hit of a silver plate, on which one’s
initials can be traced; and by pressing a
knob it flies open to reveal the inside
glass bottle.
Then if you are going on a journey 7 he
can give yon a lovely suede leather
writing portfolio or one for holding the
loose photographs to he picked np in
traveling. Some thoughtful souls give
girls leather bound hooks, on the backs,
stamped in black, the title diary and
her name. A screw pencil slips into
loops, and on the gilt edged leaves she
can jot down a heterogenous mass of
notes and reflections, for reference at
another day.
For a journey by 7 rail he will perhaps
buy a cut glass tumbler, glass being
cleaner than a metal cup, set in a leath
er rase, and marked with her name and
address, and for a sea voyage it’s no im
propriety 7 for a friend to beg her ac
ceptance of a flat glass leather covered
bottle filled with a clear golden fluid
that for eonventionalty's sake let us call
the traveler's companion.—Interview in
New York Sun.
Saving Souls in Africa.
They 7 tell of a powerful Irishman out
in Africa who seized the wretched Arab
who was paddling him across a stream,
threw him overboard, and grabbing him
by the back of the neck as he rose to the
surface of the water hissed in his ear:
“Will you renounce the Prophet and
become a Christian?''
“Allah forbid,” sputtered the Arab.
“Down you go, then,” said the Irish
man, and he ducked the Arab under
again. In about a minute he pulled him
up and shouted:
“Will you believe in the Christian's
God?”
“No,” gasped the Arab feebly 7 .
"Drown, then," yelled the Irishman,
as he ducked the unfortunate Mussul
man again.
For the third time he pulled the man
up and asked, “Will you believe?”
The Arab, almost dead, was just able
to whisper “Yes.”
“Drown, then,” yelled the man, “be
fore you lose your sowl by 7 recanting!”
and he put the wretch under once more
and held him there till life was extinct.
—New York Tribune.
A Lake of Pitch.
“x'fear where we live,” said William
Greig, of Trinidad, West Indies, “is a
pitch lake. It'S at La Brea. It covers
about ninety acres, and it is .soft enough
to take the impression of your shoes as
you walk over it, hut take up a hit of it
and strike it sharply and it breaks off
with a eonclioidal fracture like a lump
of anthracite. I don't know where it
'X'-’Jies from, but I do know that it's most
awfully hot there. The sun poflts down
like fuii, and the black pitch absorbs all
the heat. All down to the coast and under
the sea and across in Venezuela there is
& streak of this same formation. The
British government owns the lake, and
i monopoly pays a royalty 7 of not less
than £20,000 a year.—Chicago Tribune.
Avoiding Taxes.
An amusing example of the expedients
resorted to by people to escape taxation
is afforded by a prominent farmer of
Lafayette, Ore., who claimed an offset
of $260 against his assessment on account
of indebtedness. Investigation of his
claim bv the hoard of equalization
showed that he owed the $260 sure
enough. It was due the county for back
taxes, which he had refused to pay.—
Philadelphia Ledger.
In Russia the bride must not eat of
the wedding cake unless she wishes to
lose her husband’s love. If a dog be
longing to the family of the bride should
howl on the day of the wedding or the
day previous to the event, he must be
shot by the father of the bride and no
one else, and, besides that, with a bullet
made from a silver rupee.
It is said that to drink sweet milk
after eating cnions will purify the breath
so that no odor will remain. A cupful

LOUVALE.
SOME POINTS OF'BUSINESS INTEREST TO
COLUMBUS.
Louvale, Stewart County, Ga., Decem
ber 22.—[Special.]—Like the Prodigal’s
son, 1 ve come back again, but unlike him,
I bring remittance, for renewal, here it is,
be in a hurry: I want to know when our
newly elected Senator resign again.
I live iust four and a htlf miles N. by W.
of our lovely little ville, Louvale, the name
being given in honor of Mrs. Lou Tatum,
for her handsome contributions to the little
Americus, Preston and Lumpkin railroad,
“chicken and egg road,” as was styled by
Columbus. This little road waited with
patient appeals for three years, at this
point (the south Gate of Columbus) for ad
mittance, receiving nothing but jeers, and
a cold shouider. In the meantime it
experienced the wonderful phenomma of
a grand success, in the “chicken and egg
industry.” Look at it now ! Its eastern
terminus, deep water—western making
rapid strides to the rich, alluvial fields of
Alabama. Do you tell me that Columbus
is not chagrinued at her tardiness, if not
folly; when in hearing distance of the
vi bratory throbs of a great artery line of
transit, moving its millions of freight and
hundreds of passengers, daily, right
through the once most clieerished field of
support, and not unloading.
I am now on the picket line—Columbus
vs. Americus, sharply drawn. Nine-tenths
of the farmers are with me, clinging to the
last thread of hope, to market in Columbus
from this point. You know the old-time
transit, with bad roads, is becoming a
thing of the past with the pro
gressive farmer. Americus gives
us an easy, high and dry transit,
home for breakfast, back for supper. And
now that Louvale has broken the embry-
otic shell and assumed proportions of
strength and beauty, as is plainly desig
nated in her long streets and broad ave
nues, with a grand central park. Farmers
are jubilant at the promise of her near fu
ture, securing to themselves high school
privileges for their children and city con
veniences. They are already clamorous
for choice lots. All this the result of con
ditions. One more we want; a connecting
line direct with Columbus from this point.
Ten miles will tap the Columbus Southern
at Cusseta—that will do—and reclaim to
Columbus profits untold down to the Ran
dolph line. When all roads pointed to
Rome, Rome held her sway as mistress of
the world, but when she suffered her grand
passes to be circumscribed by other pow
ers she lost her prestige.

JAMESON’S DIARY
TO BE IMPOSED ON A SUFFERING PUBLIC.
London, December 23.—Jameson’s
diary will be published tomorrow. Mrs.
Jameson and the dead man’s brother, in a
preface to the work, bitterly attacks Stan
ley for making Jameson a scape goat for
all the troubles which occurred, and claim
ing that they were due to Stanley’s
own bad judgment and neg
lect. They also suggest that
Stanley and Bonney are not
telling the truth. The cannibal episode,
as it appears in the diary, is substantially
identical with the account of it contained
in the letter to the Emin committee.
Jamison adds to his statement of facts:
“I would never have been such a beast as
to witness an act of cannibalism, but was
unable xtiuil the last moment to bring
myself to believe that it was anything
save a ruse to get money out of me.”
HITCHETEE NOTES.
IIitchetee, Ga., December 22.—[Spe
cial.]—There was an old-fashion candy
pulling at the hospitable home of Mr. and
Mrs. W. II. McGlaun last Friday night.
There was plenty of candy and a good
time.
Mr. Starling Dillard, who moved from
near this place last winter to Alabama, has
moved back. He bought the B. F. Mathis
place, paying $3000. He is now satisfied to
remain in Georgia. He was one of our
thorough-going farmers. We welcome him
back to our county and State.
A car of cotton, en route to Massachu
setts, caught lire from sparks from the en
gine, near this place, last Friday. About
twelve bales were seriously damaged. I
learn that on the same day a car of fifty
bales was burned near Parrot.
The corn crib of Antney Scott, near the
railroad, was set on tire by sparks from a
passing engine a few days ago and was
completely destroyed. Antney collected
damages fro n the company for his corn,
and he is now hap y
Mr. Peter Stepnens has moved to his
new home at Weston.
Mr. Hardy Bagley was seriously hurt
last Friday night by a mule falling with
him.
The next candy pulling comes off next
Friday night at the residence of Mr. B. J.
Wyatt. Candy pullings are plentiful,
and the pretty girls are unusually sweet.
Your correspondent will spend the next
few days at Wes'on. Perhaps I may get
you up a scrap of news and a few sub
scribers.
INCIDENTS OK THE IRISH ELECTION.
Kilkenny', December 23.—A revision
of the count shows that the vote cast for
Hennessy should be 2527, instead of 2502
as at first announced.
It is stated here that Dr. Tanner is
bringing a suit against Parnell for libels
contained in speeches made by the latter
during the late political campaign. The
leading members of the Parnellites party
in thU section, after the announcement of
the defeat of Scully, were to be seen dole
fully parading the court house passage,
apparently being in a very despondent
state of mind. As a matter of fact, the Par-
nellites were not so discouraged as might'
be expected, for it is admitted that it
was a victory for the priests, and that had
they not adopted the tactics they did, the
result of the election might have been dif
ferent.
APALACHICOLA DOTS.
Apalachicola, Fla., December 23.—
[Special.]—An apt illustration of the old
saying in reference to locking the stable
door after the horse is stolen, has been
furnished us this week by our city Coun
cil. They have purchased a hand fire en
gine which recently arrived, and on Thurs
day night a fire company was organized.
However, it is never too late to mend and
it is to be hoped that organization arid
equipment will do something toward pre
venting a repetition of the disastrous con
flagrations that have been the principal
incidents in Apalachicola's past history.
Logs are still very low, much to the dis
gust of logmen.
The general tightnes in money circles has
reached Apalach, and cash is almost as
scarce as liens’ teeth.
The snag boat Chattahoochee is here
for repairs.
