Amerieus Recorder: The citizens of Mil
ledgeville have invited the Georgia Weekly
Press Association to meet in that city June
21. This association, from what little we
can hear of it, is antagonistic to the Geor
gia Press Association, and is fathered by
the Middle Georain an*eighteen
week old paper, of Sandersville, and it pro
poses to w ork miracles, etc., and establish
what it calls “a uniform rate for advertis
ing,” w hatever that is. It is probably des
tined to fill an early grave.

as one of the most desirable homes in this

C. W. Tift, who has the for bor
ing well No. 0 at Albany, encountered a
formidable object at the depth of 25 feet
recently. It was a solid flint rock, and
what rendered it more difficult to penetrate
was its dip, which was at an angle of ulxiut
45°. It was impossible, from its position, to
strike it plumb, as the very hard (lint forced
the drill to one side and the hole was thus
being wrenched out of plumb. To over
come this obstacle to further progress with
the drill, Mr. Tift dug a 3-foot well down to
the obstruction and used dynamite blasts in
breaking it up.
In Macon a most, disgraceful scandal has
broken out in the Salvation Army. Thu
wife of one of the “Colonels" had a promi
nent citizen arrested for making indecent
proposals'to her. It was charged that the

members of the Salvation Army; that the
woman had gone off under suspicious eir
oumstancee with the gentleman she had
arrested and had begged him to treat her.

edged that she had been offered money to
net ns procuress for a man, her field of
lalior being among the female members of
the Salvation Army.
Albany Ke we and Advertiser: There are
many fine apple orchards in Dougherty and
the surrounding counties, and the fruit is
just now beginuing to get ripe. Mr. James
Gregory, who lives in East Dougherty,
brought into the city Wednesday some
lieoutiful specimens of June apples. They
were ripe, red and juicy, without a flaw or
blemish. Fresh cider will soon be in cider.
It is a most delicious beverage, and the
Albany market has never yet been over
stocked. Those farmers prepared to press
the soul from the apple can boar In mind
that Albany pays a premium on the fresh
Juice of the rosy fruit.
Nearly 14,000 jxmnds of wool have been

for v. hieli they rewived 28c. jtor pound. J.
C. Frazier marketed 2,200 pounds, while
others sold lots varying in size. The HJKM
pounds brought in round numbers $4,000,
and lias given a slight activity to trade. It
could just as well lmve lieoii $40,000 if the
farmers would devote that care and atten
tion to sheep raising that it deserves. Every
farm of 5<X) acre* should have a flock of
sheep from which a small revenue could bo
derived.

A fire broke out in Barberville, a subur
ban village on the Daniolsville road, about
a mile from Athens. Wtslnesday, which re
resultcd in the destruction of the saw mill of
John It. Crawford, a thriving merchant of
that place. Several thousand feet of hun
bor were burned, besides all the saw mill
machinery. By the most strenuous efforts
the engine and the ginhouse, in connection
with the saw mill ware saved from the
flames. It is thought the fire originated
from a spark from the engine. Mr. Craw
ford will replace his loss with new machin
ery. and will soon !■ ready to begin the saw
mill business or a better footing than be
fore. The loss from tho firo has not yet
been estimated.
A Madison special says: There are two
versions of the Shady Dale homicide. Me-
Dad*j. who killed the negro Reese Mann,
says that he went to the house of the de
ceased to get his son, who was under con
tract to work for him (Me Dade). A quarrel
began, hot words passed and the negro
struck him with a hoe handle and tried to
strike him with an ax, whereupon he shot
him twice, in the leg and abdomen. The
wife of the deceased says that McDade went
after the boy and ordered him back to
work. The boy refusing, ho began to Hog
the boy and the deceased told him to stop,
whereupon McDade replied that he would
whip him (deceased) also. A quarrel and
fight ensued and McDade shot and killed her
husband.
A gentleman who knows what he is talk
ing about says it is the intention of the Ful
ton county commissioners to issue the $500,-
000 of bonds in batches of $50,000 per year.
By that plan it would take the county ten
years to get in debt $500,000. It is believed
the county could float the bonds at per
cent., so that the interest account when it
got under full headway would bo $22,500
per year. The commissioners propose to
spend the money on tho county and subur
ban roads. That the county and suburbs
will get the benefit and Atlanta pays the
expenses can be seen by the following fig
ures: The real and personal property of the
city of Atlanta, as shown by the city tax
books, amounts to $31,500,013.* The real and
persr>nal property of the county foots up ac
cording to the county tax books $32,081,740.
In order that there may be no possibility of
a misunderstanding it should Vie stated,
however, that, the real difference in city and
county values is a little greater than the
above figures indicate. Leaving out the
matter or personal projxirty, the Comptrol
ler General’s report shows that the im
proved lands of Fulton county are valued
at $3,104,735, and the city and town prop
erty at $19,979,725. Giving the $979 725 as
the value of West End—which is too high—
the value of Atlanta real estate as given in
by the owners at $19,000,000, so that just
on the matter of dirt and mortar Atlanta is
more than six times as large as the country
part of the county on which the money Is
to be spent.

The Palatka Board of Trade is at work
trying to induce the Florida Southern rail

now being made to have the steamer Geor

packages of freight taken up or left there, a
volume of business that would certainly pay

ladies, including two married womeir, eight
of them tip the scales as follows: 205, 201,
178, 168, 153, 149, 145. 140 pounds, avoirdu
pois, while four of them are so ‘fat’ that
they are ashunted to be weighed. When it
is taken into consideration that this is the
puny season of the year in South Florida,
we think the above a good showing for a
small village. The Homeland girls are
pretty in proportion to weight, too, vouug

Jacksonville’s Health Officer. Dr. Ken
worthy, gave instructions to the sanitary
inspectors to go on picket duty aliout 3 a. m.
Wednesday on each road leading into the
city, and to halt all dairymen coming in
with milk and obtain from each a certain
quantity which they were bringing into
town to dispose of, so that he could examine
,it and ascertain th * relative quality of each
dealer’s fluid, as j*r city ordinance. One
inspector loitered by the wayside and failed
to bring in one drop, but many cans were
tapped. The doctor tested the milk and
was gratified to state that samples of nearly
all came up to the required standard.
90 per cent. Homo went as high as
110 per cent. A full report of
the result of the investigation will be made
at the next meeting of the City Council.
The Ktate Press Association held its an
nual meeting at Fernandina Wednesday.
After hearing addresses, etc., the body of
quill-drivers adjourned to the beach. The'
afternoon session was held at the Strath
more Hotel, on the beach, whither the asso
ciation was taken on a special train. Maj.
George R. Fairbanks was elected President;
F. E. Harris, Vice President; D. H. Elliott,
Secretary. The following delegates were
elected to attend the National Editorial Con
vention at Denver in September: J. J. Har
ris, A. O. Wright, John T. Graves, L. C.
Vaughn. The citizens of Fernandina ex
tended overflowing courtesies to the mem
bers of the association. Supper was served
at the Strathmore Hotel A ball was given
in the evening in the dancing pavilion, and
Thursday an excursion was made on the
steamer Seth Low to the jetties, Dungeness
and St. Mary’s.
The meeting at Welaka in the interest of
the Palatka, Welaka and Lake road Mon
day was largely attended. The citizens of
Welaka and its vicinity readily accepted the
proposition of the company, as stated by
Maj. Fenwick, to grade and tie the road.
Articles of incorporation have been adopted
and an election of officers was held
Wednesday in the Florida Southern railroad
offices at Palatka. Mr. Knight, of the
Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West road, is
the engineer in charge of the new road. He
will commence the survey of the road Friday,
commencing at the south end and working
east, t.ioing on to preliminary lines already
run from the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key
West line. His office will be in the Florida
Southern building at Palatka. The new
road, which it is expected will be finished
in November, shortens the time to Tavares
by an hour and a half, and to Bartow bv
four hours. It will bo standard gabge all
the way, and will form an important link
between Palatka and the more southerly
towns of the peninsula.
Mr. U. J. White, President of the St.
John’s and Halifax railroad, has determined
to bring the trains of his road into Palatka,
says the News, and make that city the ter
minus of that road. To this end a magnifi
cent drawbridge is to be built across the
river from Rolleston, the present terminus,
to the west shore and across the swamps to
the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West
railway track, which will be used in coining
into the city. We learn that the contract for
all the piling has been let, and that Mr. T.
A. Darby, owner of the Devil’s Elbow mills,
has the contract for furnishing the tim
ber and lumber, and is now at work getting
it out. The bridge will be framed at Devil’s
Elbow, and the workmen are there now
busily engaged. Col. S. B. Carter, <Ae of
the best railroad engineers in the country,
will superintend the erection of the bridge,
which is a guarantee that the work will be
well done. It is rumored that the office of
tho St. John’s and Halifax road will be with
the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West
railway offices until such time as the
Grand union depot is built. It is also
rumored that the St. Augustine and Palatka
railway will run up to Rolleston and cross
the river on the same bridge, or else con
struct one for its own use, in order to con
nect with the Florida Southern road. But
the bridge at Rolleston is a fact. The
money is in hand to pay for it, and the men
in charge never do thing* by halves or
slowly, so by the opening of next season’s
business the St. John’s and Halifax trains
will run into Palatka.
By 8 o'clock on Friday night last between
100 and 200 people had assembled at Fort
Pickens to witness the witness the war dance

ready for business. First, eight of them sat
on a rawhide which hud Icrii stretched out
on the grounds about twelve yards from a
large firo which had been lit. Each man had
something to nmko music (0 with. One man
had an instrument which rosembled a small
dram. It consisted of a small band about
twelve inches higtf and about five inches in
diameter with a piece of buckskin stretched
over the top. This Indian also had a piece
of iron about a foot long bent
into a ring at the end to beat the
instillment with. The rest that
were seated on the rawhide had small sticks
about three feet long with which they beat
on the hard rawhide, keeping up a song fill
the time, which seemed to lx- nothing but
e rr, e-'.'r, e-er, e-er-o over and over, which
afforded music for tho three that were exe
cuting the war dance around the firo by a
series of graceful movements, not unlike a
spirited hors*' prancing. They would jier
form steps something like our own dancing.
Each one of the dancers had a wooden sword
in one hand and u small cross in the other,
which wore used a groat deal in their
movements. As they would pas:* tho
“musicians” they would coo like an
owl. Two of tne three dancers hod on
dresses trimmed gaudily, which reached
to their knees, and about two yards
of bright red doth tied to each arm,
just above tho elbow, and left streaming.
Each of those two had on moccasins on their
tret, and on their bead they hud a bunch of
short feathers, while right on the feathers
was something mode of some soft white
wood, supposed to represent feather*. The
upper pari of their face was covered with
buckskin, with holes for the eyes and
mouth, while the chin and neck were
covered with rod cloth. Tho other dancer
was naked, except a breech doth ami head
and face. All tne parts of the body that
could lie seen were painted with a dirty lead
color. This dancing lasted about two hours.
After that the rawhide was taken up and
put away. Then they Hi! formed a ring,
‘‘musician*” and all, and began singing a
sort of song which lasted until morning.
