There were four bales of cot ton in the house but the fourth bale was saved, though in a damaged con dition. Mr. Shepherd thinks that the house was set on fire with a view to robbing his dwelling. There was no insurance on the property destroyed. I3f Bear in mind we manufacture every Cloak, Dolman, Ulster and llaveloelc we sell—can fit any girl from four years to forty six Ladies bust. Call and see. J, WAXELBAUM & CO. A Good Dinner. At the Commercial House on Tues day, with forty more we partook fa good and bounteous repast with the regulation turkey heading the pro gramme. We object to the darkness of the dining room, which threw us on our gustatories for a true report. Being in good trim they reported most favorably on the flavors and ex cellence of the viands. We could not appreciate a better dinner than Dr. Hare sets before his guests. Representative Journals and Jour nalists. We have received a very fine en graving from the “Travelers Insur ance Company,” of Hartford, Conn., bearing a photograph of thirteen of the leading dailies of the United States with the pictures of the editor 'in-ehief of each paper. It is a well gotten up picture, and we shall hang it on our sanctum wall along with the great men of Georgia, for all of those whose picture adorn, it have made themselves great in journalism. RTChildren’s Knitted Underwear—all sizes and ages, at J. WAXELBAUM & CO’S. Negro Killed. Ou Saturday night two negro men— Bryant Clark and Andrew Davis, on the place of Mr. T. M. Merritt, got into a quarrel, one called the other a damn fool which caused a challenge to step out of the house and fight it out. Clark was armed with a heavy stick and Davis with a pistol, but on command of a friend Clark lowered his stick when he was shot by his op ponent from the effect of which lie died on Sunday morning at four o’clock. Davis the murderer, was permitted to walk off and make his escape. 53F*Trunks, Satchels and Bags from the Headquarters, at J. WAXELBAUM & CO’g. Useful and Pretty. Messrs. James Fricker & Bro. have just been receiving a large lot of new Jewelry for the holidays, and a half dozen of the celebrated Bridgeport Organs which they will sell at sixty five dollars each. These organs are guaranteed to be of the best quality, with two sets of reeds, and are unsur passed for sweetness of tone and good workmanship. Mr. Fricker requests all who may wisji to purchase a good organ to call and examine his stock, as he feels assured that no house in the South can undersell him. RAILROAD CONTRIBUTION. Mayor John B. Felder will call upon the citizens of Americus to-day with a subscription list. The object of which is to donate to the Savannah and Pacific Short Line Railway Com pany the right-of-way through the city and sufficient ground for the depot. This is a matter of vital im portance to the city and surrounding country, and it should not be necessa ry for the bearer of the subscription list to explain the advantages of a competing railroad, for every intelli gent person must know that the de mand of the above Company is noth ing when compared to the benefits to be derived therefrom. Then let every one be ready with a liberal contribu tion. The terms of the subscription very wisely protects the contributors against loss, as it expressly states that subscriptions are not due or payable until they actually need the ground for building. Messrs. S. H. Hawkins, J. W. Wheatley and C. A. Hunting ton, as trustees of the fund, is ample assurance that contributors will be protected and the money properly disbursed. Let all respond promptly and liberally. MARRIED. Baldwin - Davenport.— At the residence of the bride’s father, Col. Walter T. Davenport, in this city on Tuesday afternoon 17th inst. by Rev. J. O. A. Cook, Mr. B. J. Baldwin, jr. of Paris, Texas, and Miss Addie Davenport. Miss Addie was one of the most popular and fascinating young ladies of the city, and quite a large crowd of her admirers were presentjat the nup tials. The attendants were: Mr. J. P. Davenport and Miss Nona Adams. Mr. H. H. Collier and Miss Anna Davenport. Mr. A. E. Chappell and Miss Leila Davenport. Mr. Jas. A. Davenport and Miss Etta Clisby. Mr. D. Fred Davenport and Miss Carrie Stewart. A fine entertainment was prepared and enjoyed by the numerous guest, the farewells were taken and the young couple, received the blessings of parents and friends, went to the depot and took the train for their far away home in Texas. The bride car ries with her the prayers and good wishes of nearly the entire commuuity for she was a favorite of all. ISy'Our 73c Kid Gloves are all the go. J. WAXEEBAUM & CO. The County Treasurer. “We cannot commend, too highly, our county Treasurer for the accuracy and neatness of his books.” These are the words of the Grand Jury of Sumter county in their Gen eral presentments, and should fill the heart of Mr. C. C. Sheppard with the greatest of pleasure, to know that he had done his duty well and gained the approval of his fellow-men. Not only should he feel happy, but the citizens of the county should be proud that their county finances are in hon est and faithful hands. In these days of defalcation and fraud an honest and faithful officer is a-jewel that should be kept as an example to others. When a man, after several years of public life, gains the commendation of every Grand Jury that examinies his record, and all commend him for faithfulness and efficiency, then the people should renew their confidence and retain him as a ‘ ‘good and faithful servant.” OTHER handsome lot of Fine HATS AND CLOTHING! For Men, Boys and Children, just re- j ceived at G-'S'J-.EISS. TIIE CLOTHIER AND HITTER. And Dealer in Shirts. Store on Public Square, Americus, Ga - j Lucretia Borgia. Claire Scott attracted a pretty large crowd to the Opera House Thursday night, to witness the performance of the “Princess of Bagdad,” but the play for the night had been changed and Lucretia Borgia, a drama in four acts was rendered.. The acting of Miss Claire was perfect in every particular, and her supporters were pretty good. The stage costumes were the most costly and brilliant ever worn by a Company in this city, and taken alto gether the acting was calculated to give satisfaction to all, but many were disappointed in the change of pieces. We hope the troupe will pay our city another visit soon, as we are confident that they will be warmly ' welcomed by the theatre goers ofi Americus. tsyCall amt see our Hats—they are dar lings. J. WAXELBAUM & (JO. Faithful Servant. On Sunday last Rev. Calhoun John son, col., of Leesburg preached aged sermon to the colored congregation: of Mt. Olive Church in this city, from the 34th verse of the 13th chapter of ! St. Mark, “For the sou of man is as a man taking a far journey who left his house, and gave authority to his ser vants, and to every man his work and commanded the porter to watch.” He made a stirring appeal to his race to do their duty in their sphere, to worship the true God and keep his commands. It was a good ser mon fitly spoken and should be kept in the hearts of his hearers. To the Citizens of Americus—An Ap peal for Aid. At its meeting on last Sunday after noon, the Young Men’s Mutual Aid Association voted a subscription in aid of the yellow fever sufferers at Pensacola, Fla., and also resolved to invite the citizens of Americus to join them and aid their subscription to those of the Association. For this purpose the undersigned were ap pointed a committee to petition the people of our city, in behalf of this worthy cause. The people of Georgia need not be told of the horrors of a yellow fever epidemic. To them it is only suffic ient to say that for weeks this dread ful scourge has been ravaging the city of Pensacola. Up to date there have been over 1,300 cases of the fever and many deaths. All business is at a standstill, all industries are stopped, and there is great destitution and dis tress. An urgent appeal has been made to the country at large, and the people of Georgia, who themselves have been the recipient of a generous aid from sympathizing public will not bo slow to heed the call, and we do not believe that Americus will be be hind any of her sister cities in her contributions. During this week we will endeavor to call upon all the busi ness men of the city. There are many people however, who we cannot call upon, and especially the ladies of the town, who are always foremost in good work of this character. To each we say, do not wait for us to call upon you but send us your contribution, or hand it to either of the parties of the city, or leave it at the drug store of Messrs. W, T. Davenport* Son, or at the confectionary of Mr.Ed Ansley. In either case it will be promptly report ed and forwarded. Wo hope to meet with a prompt and liberal response from our people, to this, our appeal. Respectfully, Lott Warren, CIIAS. R. lIAIIDV. J. A. Fort. Com. Y. M. M. A. A. CLOTHING, at J. WAXELBAUM & CO'S. The Savannah Short Line. In another column will be seen a notice that a subscription list will be circulated to-day by Mayor John B. Felder, to secure a fund to purchase the right-of-way through the city of Americus for the Pacific Short Line Road, and for the purchase of grounds for the depot and shops. There has been 110 project set in motion for the public benefit of our city, since it was a city, that can compare in importance with this movement. It commends itself to the common sense and com mon patriotism of every intelligent man. A chance for another road to the sea. A competing line that will place our commerce on a par with (lie most favored points. A deliverance from the thraldom of oppression and discriminating freight tariff's on cot ton bound out and merchandise bound in, all a free gift, or for the beggarly pittance of a free passage through the city and grounds for a depot. Let no man hesitate who can command a dollar. It will be held in trust by some of our most trustworthy citizens and devoted to the end indicated. Agents for the Telegraph & Messen ger and Atlanta Constitution. Agnes Aycock. Sentenced by Judge J. A. Ansley. Ou Saturday Judge Ansley passed sentence on the following prisoners: George Fletcher, assault with in tent to commit rape, twenty years in the penitentiary. Troy Smith, hog stealing, two years in the penitentiary. On Monday—Moses Simmons, bur glary, sentenced to seven years in the penitentiary. Albert Irwin, burglary, seven years. Anna Irwin on account of having two small children, was allowed to plead guilty of larceny from the house and sentenced to S3O fine including cost, or fifteen days in jail. Emma Simmons, burglary, not guilty. Edmund Tucker, fogery. Jury out and arrived at no verdict at time of going to press. Accident at the Railroad. The little boys of both colors have been in the habit of jumping on the steps of the cars whenever they ap proach and leave the depot. On Tues day afternoon as the passenger train left our depot, a little nine year old colored boy jumped on the stops of the hindmost coach and rode awhile. 111 attempting to jump off he fell, the left ankle went in front of one of the wheels and the bone was esushed into frag ments. This should be a warning to the boys, and if not sufficient, the police should arrest every one caught in the act of jumping on and oft'the cars while in motion. Drs. Hinkle, Cooper and Hawkins amputated the little fellow’s leg about three inches below the knee. FOR LADIES ONLY. NOVELTIES INFANCY RIBBONS JUST hECiIV DS! Ottoman Ground Brocaded with Velvet.

Fricker Bro.’s, have the cheapest ORGANS over brought to Americus. Marshal Lingo says the comet’s tail is fourteen million miles long and marked “to be continued.” You had better take the advice of old settlers than that of new ones, if you want to succeed in any business.

Engines on hand ready for use. Avoid delay. No man is more welcome to the edi torial sanctum than the one who brings an item of news—the one who comes to pay a subscription, perhaps, excepted. A young man went to sleep in church Sunday night and when he awoke his sweetheart was tapping him on the head with her fan, saying: “Its time to see the comet!” The comet is still cn exhibition at the inconvenient hour of about four o’clock in the morning. There is, however, no admission fee. The at traction is announced for a season of about three weeks. In the early days the people of this county wore clothes made of woolsey linsey. The ladies spun and wove nearly all the garments worn, and they felt just as comfortable at the ap ple gatherings as do the people of to day with their fine clothes. The fashionable ladies have just an nounced anew color called honey suckle, and when a man comes to pay for forty or fifty yards of the stuff to make a dress of, he has a vague no tion floating through his brain that the cognomen should bo changed to ‘ ‘money-suek-le. ’ ’ Two or three of the most desirable dwelling houses in the city, within five minutes walk of the square, all in perfect order, will be rented low to a good tenant. Rent Sl2 50 to ?20 00 per month. Apply to Harrold, Johnson & Cos. A beautiful young lady down in Clinton, 111., has just suffered asevere loss. It seems that while the couple stood up to be married a heartless sheriff came into the room and pro ceeded to give the bride away. The way he gave her away was by taking off all the handsome jewelry with which she had adorned her person, claiming at the same time that she had stolen it—lifted it, as it were, from a prominent jewelry firm down town. The sheriff told the minister to go right on with the ceremony, all he wanted was the goods. It must have been a most embarrassing position for the bridegroom, a position which we would not have been caught in for a dollar. We like money, but there are some things we cannot overlook. J3TCARPETS! CARPETS! The largest line ever shown, at J. WAXELBAUM & UO’S. Death of a Good Man, We regret to record the death of J. W. Jossey. He had been a citizen of Webster county for a quarter of a century, filling important offices, and was at the date of his death Clerk of the Superior Court. He died on Fri day night of the 13th inst. Was a man of industrious habits, borne a character in every way worthy of com mendation and imitation. Honest, truthful and sincere in his ways and words—a good Mason and a member of the Baptist Church. The loss of a loved daughter just previous so shock ed his system that a slow and insid ious fever set in and did the rest and carried him off. He leaves an aged wife and several children, to whom we extend our sincere condolence. The deceased was about sixty-five years old. WANTED.
