The Fire.
The alarm of fire this morning was caused
by the burning out of a chimney of the house
of Mr. Abe Adams near the Blind Asylum.
The engines were out promptly as a high wind
was blowing and the great Boston conflagra
tion had not been forgotten. The alarm was
given at half ten.
Wild Turkey.
Maj. John McManus, our city clerk, employ
ed thanksgiving day in hunting at Pace’s sta
tion Macon and Brunswick Railroad. He shot
and killed a wild turkey weighing nine pounds.
So dated was he at his success that he could
scarcely wait for the homeward-bound train,
having gone to the station an lionr an 1 a half
ahead of the train.
Railroad Accident.
A lumber train on the M. & B. Railroad this
morning while ascending a Hill about ten miles
from the city met with quite an accident in
this way: a few of the cars brolca loose but
the train did not stop, and had not got much
further when a few more broke loose and took
the back track, running into the cars that had
been left, smashing then, to pieces. The 8:z0
train for Brunswick (lid not leave the shed
until noon to-day. Nobody hurt.
THANKSGIVING DAY.
HOW IT WAS OBSERVED IN THE CENTRAL
CITY —TALK OF A TURRET— THANKS.
Yesterday was the day that has been marked
with a blue pencil in President Grant's pocket
Almanac for Thanksgiving Day. It was not
observed to an.* preponderous extent in our
little city Perhaps a great many forgot about
it, or didn't take the Enterprise, or perhaps
they were not very particular about observing
it nohow. We have heard of such things.
There were services at nearly all the churches
but the attendance was far from being large,
and the weather wasn’t a bit too cold either.
It was a delightful day. The sun shone down
and heated the atmosphere to a delightful de
gree.
The stores kept open and business seemed
to drive along unconscious of the red letter
day. Yet the streets were not crowded. The
stock of pedestrians was slim. Where did
the people keep themselves! Were they at
home employed In thanksgiving! We wan
dered down to the Park. Only a few children
were there, and they were not old enough to
know it was thanksgiving day.
But the man and brother knew it. lie had
been slowly wearing out his almanac fingering
and counting the days ’til Thanksgiving Day.
And when it came he slept longer in the morn
ing than usual. It was a day of rest to him
snd he knew it, consequently treasured it. 110
didn’t exactly have any thanks to offer for his
rountry and its rulers, but he w as truly thank
ful for another day of rest. He did not wander
out much during the day, but took the night
in hls’n. He gathered his little band of "cheap
tin horns” and paraded the streets. lie yelled
vociferously and boorayed for Iluff until the
junebug closed its sleepy eyes and weut to his
Uttle bed—then all was still, save the occasional
•igh of some unfortunate night mare with the
epixooty. Thus the day passed away, leaving
nothing in It to be remembered except one
thing. We can’t forget that. It was a turkey.
A turkey of large proportions and exquisite
sweetness. None thought of the poor half
starved printer bnt that trio <f. gentlemen
whose hearts are so large that they think of
snd assist everybody in trouble.
Just about the time the cook was chopping
her kindling wood preparatory to making a
fire in the stove to cook dinner, a porter rush
ed frantically into our office bearing in one
band a suspicious looking paper Dag and in the
other a note. Read the note and note the gen
erou* nature of the gentlemen.

OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT.
a prisoner of tiif. united states
GROSSLY INSULTED ON TITE STREETS
IIY A u. 8. DETECTIVE UK IN
ARRESTED.
The arrest of Mr. J. 11. Merryduy as a Wllk
lnsonUounty Kuklux is still fresh In the minds
of our reude:s The manner hi which Mr.
Mcrryduy was arrested has never been made
publicly known, but is it has a particular bear
ing on the ea-e in hand, we will lay an account
of It before our readers.
On the morning of October 22d Mr Merry
day was engaged In hanging a sigu, and as he
enjoys a first-rate reputation as an artist in
that line, quite a crowd gathered around to ex
amine it Among them was a large, portly
man, with a red face well pitted by small pox.
This was Snead, aU. 8. Detective. This fact,
however, was uuknovvn to Merrydav. Snead
asked who was the artist, and a bystander re
plied Unit the gentleman in shirt sleeves, Mr
•Merryilay, was the painter. lie instantly
walked up to Merry day and introduced himself
as Sncail, an Englishman. Merrydav being an
Englishman also, they soon found themselves
seemingly good friends. Snead hung around
the paiut shop of Windhatd .X Cos nearly all
the morning, talking on commonplace matters,
and occasionally addressing Merry day as “Har
ry.” This aroused sujdi#n and Mr. Mcrryduy
asked :
“How is it your are so familiar with my
nine?"
“Oh. well,” replied Snead, “1 heard of you
a hundred miici from here. I hoard of you in
Wilkin on.•, .u,..“
Mr. M. rtp:.ed that he had left there about a
year ago. Finally Snead left the shop, promis
ing to see him again. A little after dinner, on
the 34th, M. met Snead near the Enterprise
office, and was asked if he had seen two old
English friends he had sent to sec him. Upon
being told no, Snead proposed to look them up.
in a few moments the two Englishmen were
seen coming up the street. They met and the
new-aetors in the scene were introduced as
Capt Blacker and Mr. Doomsday. The quar
tette repaired to the beer saloon of Mr. En
gclkc, corner of Third and Poplar streets,
where they were lo have a social chat over
“Old England.” When finally in the room,
Blacker pulled a warrant out of ills pocket and
there arrested Merrydny in the name of the
United States as a Kuklux. Knowing that his
innocence could bo easily established, Merry
day submitted quietly and asked to bo allowed
time to arrange his business preparatory to
leaving for Savannah that night. This request
was readily granted by the gentlemanly Cap
tain, with one condition and that was Dooms
day should accompany him around the city.
Doomsday kindly permitted Mcrryday to ar
range ids business, and even tarn out with his
fire company on parade. Mcrryday did not
sec Doomsday until the parade was over and
the engine housed. Then Mcrryday gave him
self up, and the quartetto that had assembled
at the beer saloon in the morning, left on the
train that night for Savannah. Capt. Blacker
got off at Gordon and the others continued on.
It was then that Snead commenced trying to
make Mcrryday “peach,’’ as he called confess
ing. Having nothing to confess, Merryday
was of course obstinate. Tins aroused the ire
of the pock-marked Sneed, and he poured forth
a perfect lava of abuse and curses.
Col. Farrow being on board the train, was
appealed to for protection. This lie said he
could not give. Doomsday, who was in an
other car, was then called on and he offered
his protection
They finally reached Savannah and reported
at headquarters- Mcrryday requested to give
bond (he was allowed to) before the commis
sioner from whoee office the warrant was is
sued. Ttiis was granted, and Merryday, in
charge of one of the most gentlemanly officers,
Capt. Blacker, came hack to Macon and gave
bond before Commissioner Swayze. This
morning while doing some painting In the back
yard of Mr. Z. B. Wheeler, Snead came up and
grossly insulted Merryday. Not being armed,
and assured that Snead was, Merryday had
him arrested by officer Murphy. lie will ap
pear before the Mayor to-morrow in answer to
the charge of disorderly couduct.
This same Snead was docketed before Ills
Honor the other morning for disorderly con
duct, in anothar case, but from some cause
failed to appear.
We think his conduct should be severely
censured by the U. S. authorities and that he
should be dismissed from the service for his
gross treatment of a prisoner.
How long these outrages will be permitted
to coutimio, we can't for the life of us, tell.
Thunlisgiring Services.
Services were held yesterday in the two Epis
copal churches. At St. Pauls a very large con
gregation listened to a short sermon from the
Rector Rev. 11, K. Iteea, from Proverbs 3d
chapter, Bth and 9th verses. He told them
that they must not consider the service in a
political light at all, though it might be so con
sidered by some ; in other parts of the coun try
where the former members of the old churcii
from which they had acceded, in their blind
prejudice of Christmas and Easter, wanted a
substitute; they were welcomed to it for us ;
we consider it of far more importance as being
by the church from the beginning of it, especi
ally set part to offer thanks to the Almighty for
a propitious year and bountiful crops; and
this year did they not have great cause to
thank Him ? There is not one that we know
of in actual want, and when the minister in
his walks did find such, how freely did they
respond to his appeals for assistance for them
We must thank him with offerings from onr
gains and profits of the year. llow many had
thought to lay by a tenth of his portion for tin:
cause of God ? It was the law of the old Jew
ish Church to do so, then win satisfaction and
prosperity follow.
Many good tilings were then brought in by
the congregation One instance we heard we will
relate: an extremely poor woman brought in
part of her store and contributed it, when she
had as little as she could to get along with
self.

J T Is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers’are the best medium tor reaching
ail parties whose trade is deulred.
TUK MONROE ADVERTISER
readies more of tho people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published In the
country; it Is, therefore, the be*t medium of
communication with the planting interests.
We will be happy st any time to furnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties who read
their cards in The AiluerUeer. In fad, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of all
other journals in which they are represented.
The Adverllter has tho freshness of youth anil
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
successful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS
No advertisements arc admitted which are
not believed to be above question and of real
valno, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The AdrerOeer will bo
safs in ordering them from any distance, i o
our readers, the fact of Its appearance here has
til the weight of endorsement and anthorUy.
