Albany News and Advertiser: Mr. Satn
Fa ’;as recently bought a 3-year-old colt
from Mr. J. L. Dozier, of this county, that
promises to develop into a very valuable
horse. It has been broken only two weeks
and its present speed is a mile in 3 1-2 min
utes. Us movements are easy and graceful,
and without any apparent exertion it
snatches a buggy rapidly over ground. One
fine quality is Its docility and tractabiiity.
It i* as kind as a kitten and shows evidence*
of a remarkable degree of horse sense. This
is a Dougherty county colt, and demon
strates what can be done in the way of horse
raising in this latitude. S. P. Salter, proprie

county, ha* racers and trotrers of excep

can be raised here at much less cost.
Danielsville Tuesday morning was envel
oped with a thick, heavy smoke, which
could lie seen curling up from its source,
only a short distance from town, plainly
telling that the woods were on fire again
near Dr. Daniel’s place. All was excite
ment, as it was feared that this time the
flames would reach town, and soofi men
and "boys, including the male portion of the
high school, were on the warpath to battle
against the flame. About 100 men succeeded
in checking the burning, but had reached
town but a short while when runners came
from across the river calling for help. That
Are was finally checked, but not until
it had burned thousands of rails, starting on
Pink AVright’s plantation, sweeping by and
barely sparing William ThreatVs dwelling
and passing over the George Burden place,
whereon Mi's. C. K. House lives. The
farm of this widow was loft entirely out
side, together with all her crops, and she
was left with no one to refenee. On Satur
day morning, however, about 200 neighbors,
each carrying his own dinner, went, over,
split rails’ana refenced her farm and went
home happy, feeling that they had done a
good deed.
The Milledgeville Bank waa the scene of
quite an oxcitement Saturday morning. A
little after the bank opened its doors for
business, a man apparently about 30 years
old, vory commonly dressed, walked into
the bank and placed nis hat upon the floor
and proceeded to count off SSOO in denomi
nations, ranging from $2 to S2O and then
walked up to the railing and requested Mr.
Bethune, the cashier, to please exchange for
slOOl4ll Mr. Bethune took up the roll of
money and examined it, and found seven
notw without any signatures upon
them. He called in the police and had him
arrested, and upon his person was found
about $2,500 in bills. He was turned over
to the Sheriff and carried to jail, where,
upon a further search, about S3OO in cur
rency was found sewed up in his clothes,
and with it a letter from Ills sister bearing
the postmark of New York, stating that
she had received the money he remitted, and
could not pass it, and to please
send her some that she could pass.
In an interview with him he gave his
name as Patrick Dorrihnn. He was not
disposed to talk much. He stated that he
was engaged in the optician business,
and had a cousin by the name of
AVilliam Haffey, and that he
worked at the water works in At
lanta He said he could not write, but
from his conversation he seemed to have a
good education. He is a man about five
feet high, weight. al>out ISO pounds, black
hair, full face of whiskers, which are same
color. He would be a fine looking man if
he was dressed according to his purse. He
is Irish, though he says he came to this coun
try four years ago. His brogue goes to
prove otherwise. The money was examined
by experts, and it is very badly mixed. He
takes matters very coolly, and is playing
the ignorant very wisely. He do*s not know
how much money he had on his jierson.
The Mai-on police report the rather singu
lar proceeding of a conductor on the East
Tennessee, \ irginia and Georgia railroad.
Saturday morning Goode Rolierts had a
difficulty with a negro near Burke’s store,
in the vicinity of the East Tennessee, A T ir
ginia and Georgia freight depot. In the
afternoon he met Charles Craig on Fourth
street, near Mulberry, and, handing him
his watch, told Mr. Craig to give the watch
to his (Robert* 1 ) son. It soon dawned upon
Mr. Craig that Roberts was not in his right
mind, and that he might do injury to him
self, so he told the officers about, it, and he
was followed. He went on through the park
and was lost to sight. Shortly afterward
a negro hoy gave Officer Daniel a note. It
was addressed “to the police,” and
was written by Roberts. Noting its
contents, the officer gave the note to
Mayor Price, who happened to be in the
park. The Mayor says the note said that
Robert* was tired of his life, and that he
would drown himself, and attributed his de
spondency to domestic trouble* and gam
bling. The Mayor secured Officers Yager,
Johnson, Daniel and Lowenthal and began
a search for the man. He was seen from a
distance seated upon the brink of a declivity
that overlooked the river, and was just in
the position that should he lx: approach!*! to
be arrested he could drop right into the river.
Finding him in such a position the Mayor
resorted to strategy. He secreted the offi
cers behind the levee and then went himself
to where Roberts was sitting. After accost
ing him in a way to disarm suspicion the
Mayor parleyed with him for con
siderable time. He was finally in
duced in this way to get up from his
dangerous position. About dark Roberts
watched for ail opportunity and then ran
rapidly across the park in the direction of
the Covington and Mai'on railroad, and
nothing more was seen of him. Mayor
Price says Roberts talk is I to him in a niost
intelligent manner, but ho saw that the
man had been drinking considerably. His
friends believe that he has recently given
way to strong drink and that his mind is
unbalanced in consequence. Some think
that as sixin as he recovers bis mind he will
return home and lie himself again. Others
believe that he ha* carried out his inten
tions. Up to a late hour Saturday night he
had not be-n hoard from either at his homo
or by the police.

training for a race to be run there. The

The sinking fund commission met at
Columbia Thursday and considered the bids
for the Owendaw and Wythewood tract* in
Berkeley county. It will be remembered
that at the last meeting of the commission
only one bid for these lands was received
It was from the Berkeley County Land and
Stock Company, which offered 25c. per acre.
The commission considered this price too
low, and extended the time for receiving !
offers, making public announcement of the
amount of the Berkeley eomjiany’s bid. At
Thursday’s meeting the following bids were
considered: Berkeley Comity Land and
Stock Company. 25c. per acre; A. J. Salinas,
30c. per acre: AV. J. Black, 33c. per acre;
Edward AVillis, 58c. per acre. Maj. Willis’
was a cash offer for not less than 15,000
acres. As the tracts named contain 15,(1801-2
acres, his bid was accepted. At 58c. per acre
the sale wifi yield the State $0,004 00. If the
offer of the Berkeley Company had been ac
cepted the State would have received $3,020,
12, or $5,174 57 less than the postponement
have brought. These two tracts were
ixiught for the land commission in "the era
of gixxl stealing” by Commissioner C. P.
Leslie at the reported price of $38,400 for
the Owendaw tract ot 12,800 acres, and
$23,000 for the Wythewood tract of 5,517
acre*. It will thus be seen that the 18,317
acres cost the State certainly $01,400.
Several thousand acres have been already
sold by the sinking fund commission to
various parties, leaving the 15,680 acres,
which Maj. AVillis has taken in a lump. The
price now obtained seems small compared to
the inflated valuation of the Leslie period,
but it approximates the actual value
of the land at, this time. In order to en
able the commission to judge accurately of
the value of these lands, their special
agent, Capt. Vincent F. Martin, was re
cently sent, to examine it carefully. Capt.
Martin reported its value for grazing pur
poses at between $9,000 and SIO,OOO, and
added that it was the finest tract of pasture
land he had ever sot'll. It was a self-sus
taining stock range, he said, containing
within its limits abundant food for cattle all
the year round. Maj. AVillis’ intentions are
not known, but it is believed that he will
put the land to the same uses proposed by
the Berkeley Land and Stock Company. At
any rate, this tract, so long idle on the nands
of the sinking fund commission, will now be
placed on the tax lists and yield a revenue to
the county and State. The sinking fund
commission received two bids from brokers
for certain assets of the State-—bonds and
stocks—in the hands of the commis
sion. Both were rejected and the com
mission decided not to sell at pres
ent any of these assets, which consist, ac
cording to the recent official ropoits, of the
following securities chiefly given in return
for State aid or in payment for convict
labor: 2.41XJ shores capital stock Cheraw
and Salisbury Railroad Company; 10,000
shares capital stock Spartanburg and Union
Railroad Company; 2,125 shares capital
stock Pendleton Railroad Company; 1,688
shares capital stock Columbia and Augusta
Railroad Company; 6,400 shares capital
stock .Cheraw and Coalfields Railroad Com
pany; 2,500 shares capital stock Laurens
Railroad Company; 2,700 shares capital
stock Charleston and Savannah Railroad
Comiwuiy; 60 shares capital stock Keowee
and Tuckaseegee Turnpike Company;
$7,407 33 worth of the capital stock of the
Eagefield and Trenton Railroad Company.
What Prof. Mike Saw.
Prom the Americas (Ga.) Republican.
Tom Jones lives out near Friendship and
his gal is not half dozen miles away. Prof.
Mike was stopping with Sal’s daddy, and
sorter hankering arter Sal himself. He was
horrified one night to hear her yell out;
“Git out, you nasty feller, you, and let
me alone. I’ll tell my ma, Tom’Jones.”
Tom sat about ten feet away digging dirt
out of the chimney jam with his fingers,
and replied: “I aln’ter techin’ you now,
Sal.”
“AVell, perhaps you don’t mean to, now,
nuther,” said Sal.
“No, I don’t.”
“Cause you is too skeery, ’ you long
legged, lantern-jawed, slap-sided, pigeon
toed, gangle-kneed, big-mouted owl, you.
’Haiut got a bit of sense. Git ulong home.”
“Now, Sal, I love you and can’t help it;
and if you don’t let me stay an’ court you,
my daddy will sue you’m for that cow he
sold him ’tother day, by jingo. He said so.”
“AVell, look ahear, Torn, if you want to
court me you had better ilo it right now.
White men does that thing. Don’t sit up
thar like I was pison—jist come right up to
me like you was gwine to take me anyhow.”
“How is that, Sal?”
* “AVhy, slide right up here and kiss me as
if you was a man. Don’t you ’spose a
woman was only made to look at, you fool.”
Tom slipped up and threw one arm around
Sal’s waist, and then there was a clap like
thunder.
“O, Jerusalem!” said Tom, “that’s better
than ’lasses and batter cakes.”
“Do it some more,” said Sal; “don’t
stop.”
“I am too skeered,” said he.
