Call Him Admiral Estill.
It now appears that Col. J. H. F.sttll, of
Savannah, who was a gallant soldier in the ar
tillery service cf the c-mfederate states, and
also one of the men Governor Joe Brown sent
down to capture Fort Pulaski before Georgia
seceded, was for a short time, engaged in the
naval service of the confederacy, and did
some important special work about the mouth
of the Savannah river.
It is not generally known that Col. Estill
served a while in the navy, but it is a fact, and
for that service he is entitled to be called Ad¬
miral E ‘ill.
’Rah for Admiral Estill.

Col. Livingston is Interested.
News comes from Washington that Col. Liv¬
ingston is interested in a new process for util¬
izing cotton seed which, if all that is claimed
for it is true, will revolutionize the cotton seed
business.
It is some sort of a chemical process, which
delints the seed in a few minutes, at a mere
nominal cost, extracts the oil, and does every
* H
do, all . better style, , and . tri
can ana in a at a
fling cost
In fact, it set ms there are “millions in it,”
and we hope it is all true, and that the colonel
has a legular bonanza in the new discovery.
Two Fires in Covington.
A small barn, near the east cor¬
porate limits of Covington, belong¬
ing to Tom Henderson, colored,
was burned about 2 o’clock on Fri¬
day.
It caught from burning grass
about the premises, and was soon
destroyed. It contained about 2,
000 pounds of hay, and a few oth
er things.
The loss was quite small .1
About 3 o’clock Sunday morning
the dwelling house of Albert Pitts,
colored, on Conyers street, was dis
, covered , ^ to , be fire, - and , gener
on a
al alarm was given.
The flames spread rapidly, and
by the time the people arrived on
the scene, the fire was beyond con¬
trol, and the house was soon a mass
of burning coals.
Only a few r of the household
goods were saved, and Albert esti¬
mates his loss at about $1,000.00.
The wind was blowing a slight
gale from the west, and for some
time the premises of Judge E, F.
Edwards were in great danger, as
they were just eas t of the burning
i i were carried by the wind anu roofs rain- in

, the efforts of the oucket brigade in
bringing water, and the heroic
work of a number of young men
who sealed the ladders and mount¬
ed the roofs amid the rain of fire
brands and the chilling winds, suc¬
ceeded in extinguishing them as
fast as they caught. It was an ex
citing time for haif an hour or
I more, as it looked every minute as
if the judge’s barn and dwelling
wou ld be burned, but fortunately
the danger passed, and his entire
premesis were saied. ,
Albert Pitts' house was burned
to the ground in a few minutes.
j but b j s outhouses were saved.
He does not not know certainly
the fire - originated, ....... but be
how
thinks it caught from the stove
chimney.
He bad $300.00 insurance on the
house, $200.00 on his furniture,
and $100.00 on his family wearing
apparel, making a total ot $600.00.

The Central Makes Fast Run
Two fc.-.-i trains have been put on
between Chicago and St. Augus¬
tine—one passing through Geor¬
gia by the Southern, and the other
by the Central railway.
On Monday last these trains
made their first run, and both pass¬
ed through Atlanta a little behind
their schedule time.
The Central train made the run
from Atlanta to Macon, 103 miles,
in two hours and 15 minutes, in¬
cluding a stop of seven minutes at
Griffin. The same train made a
gain of 40 minutes between At¬
lanta and Albany, w’hich it had
lost before it reached Atlanta.
That was a fast run, and beat
the Nancy Hanks by several min¬
utes, and it used to be said “she 1 •
didn’t run—but flew—between At¬
lanta and Macon.
Covington and Oxford
Street Railroad.
We inadvertently omitted to
mention the fact, last week, that
the directors of the Covington and
Oxford Street Railroad Company
had declared a three per cent divi¬
dend on the first of January.
This is the first dividend the
compauy has declared in several
years, the last one being a four per
cent dividend.
Though this one is sm^ll, it is a
very acceptable one to the stock¬
holders at this time.
The reason there has been no
dividend paid the stockholders for
several years is, because the com¬
pany had a large guaranteed in¬
debtedness, which handicapped
them very materially, and so the
directors very wisely decided to
pay it off, instead of declaring a
dividend.
The company is now free from
debt, and in a much more satisfac¬
tory condition than it has been in
for a long time.
We congratulate, the directors on
getting the debt paid, and reliev¬
ing the company of its burden.

The Logansville Railroad.
A meeting of the stockholders of
the Logansville and Lawrenceville
railroad has been called to be held
at the office of the Seaboard Air
Line railroad, in Atlanta, on the
8th of February, for the purpose
of considering the sale of the road
to the Seaboard Air Line railroad
under the terms of an agreement
between the directcis of the two
roads.
Of course, we presume that the
stoc R bo ; ders -will endorse the sale
that has already been practically
made.
TheU ^ qUeSti0 ” = Will
Seab ° ard Air LhlC alI ° W the
rQad tQ st0 p permanently at Lo

Covington or Monroe ?
This is a very important ques¬
tion for Covington, and vee must
keep our eyes open to our interests
in the matter. Should it be ex¬
tended to Monroe, it would be a
ctd i n t 0 our trading terri
^ ory . wb iie it would not hurt Mon
roe if it was built to Covington,
because it would be run through a
sect j on 0 f country not at all con¬
tiguous to Monroe. ;
It is of much in'erest to Coving¬ !
ton to have the road from Logans-!
ville extended here, because of the
fine connections it would give us
at the Other end Of the line. We
regard that all ... important to
as us,
and every effort should be made to
secure the extension of the road
from Logansville to Covigton at
early , a Gate as possible. , j

Its importance to Covington can 1 .
hardly be estimated in mere dollars,
and we must secure it if possible. ]

Atlanta Depot Commission,
The state depot commission met
in the governor’s office, on Mon¬
day.
Governor Candler was elected
chairman, but the selection of a
secretary was postponed until the
next meeting.
It is said the only business trans¬
acted was the addressing of a let¬
ter to the various railroads enter¬
ing the city, that they had met and
organized in accordance with the
act of the legislature, for the pur¬
pose of building a new passenger
depot on the state’s terminal prop¬
erty in Atlanta.
The purpose of the letter, we
suppose, is to ascertain it the rail¬
roads are going to come into the
new depot, at a rental of 6 per cent.
If any of the roads decline to
pay it, and go off and build depots
of their own, it is not known what
effect it would have Oil the action

Death of Mrs. J. R. McCalla
Our whole community was pain¬
ed to learn of the death of Mrs.
James R. McCalla, which occurred
at her home in Sheffield, on Thurs¬
day last, Jan. 10, 1902, aged about
84 years.
Mrs. McCalla was the wife of
Mr. James R. McCalla, of Shef¬
field, and the mother of Mr. J. L.
McCalla and Mrs. N. C. Carr, of
Covington ; Judge A. C. McCalla,
of Conyers ; W. E. McCalla, of
Decatur ; and Drs. C. W. and F.
L. McCalla, of Atlanta, and five
others.
Mrs. McCalla was a woman of
many noble virtues, and was great¬
ly beloved by every one in the
community.
She leaves her aged husband,
who is 90 years old, n children,
130 grand and great grand chil¬
dren, and a large circle of dear and
devoted friends to mourn her death.
Her remains were tenderly laid
to rest on Friday, at Philadelphia
church, where she had been a mem¬
ber for 65 years.
May she sleep sweetly.
The Soldiers’ Home.
The soldiers’ home is to be re¬
built at one*.
The trustees met in Atlanta, last

instead of a number of cottages,
but it is to be built of wood in¬
stead of brick. We hope, howev¬
er, that this will be changed.
It should, by all means, be built

building instead of a number of
