It has been more than a vear since there was a meeting of the Military Advisory Board of Georgia, and there are many rea sons why the members of tho board should get together before the legislature meets, or early in tho session. The board would have been called together already but for the fact that there is not a dollar of appropria tions to defray the expenses of the members. The board met the last time at considerable expense to the members, which had to be paid out of their private purses. It is now said that a meeting of the board will be held some time next month. Acting Chief of Police Couch, of Atlanta, received a letter Thursday afternoon notify ing him that tho writer and his chums have decided to run the Salvation Army out of town unless the police shall order them to leave Atlanta before July 1. The letter goes on to say that the Salvation Army is a disgrace to Atlanta, and that the Chief of Police "ain’t got a bit of sense or he’d have driven them out of town long ago.” The writer says that "he and his chums mean business.” No name is signed to the communication, but the acting Chief has good reason to believe that it emanated from the Simpson street regulators. The negroes of Atlanta, headed by Elder Gaines, presented a tremendous petition to the Public (School Board at its last meeting. “Wo want colored teachers for colored schools,” said one of the colored men who ivas circulating the jietition, “and we are going to make our wishes plain to the board. We are tired of our children being taught by white teachers. The great complaint is that there Is no occupation for a colored mail who takes a higher education. They say he is shut out from a career in the world of white folks. He certainly ought not to be shut out from usefulness‘with his own people. Asa rule the best white teachers cannot lie secured for the colored schools. We can get good colored toachers.” Last week an effort was made to wreck the night train on tho Macon and Augusta railroad, Capt. E. G. Miller, conductor. When about one and half miles below Had docks tho engine run upon a cross-tie, broke it ill pieces and threw it off the track. Noth ing strange was thought of this occurrence, blit, when the train had gone about 400 yards further, a pile of cross-ties was discov ered on the track. The train was stopped and investigation disclosed tho fact that foul play had bean intended, as tracks were seen around the pile which lead off from tho road. The facts were communicated to the authorities at Augusta, who sent Detective Jack Harris to work up the case. Ho suc ceeded hi spotting the man, who proved to be a young negro man (name not learned), who luis already served a term in the peni tentiary. He was lodged in jail at Clinton on Wednesday. On Tuesday night last a large and enthu siastic body of gentlemen met ut the Athens Masonic Hall, and under the guidance of Deputy Grafid Master Arthur J. Murphy, of Marietta, Ga., organized a lodge of the Ancient Order of United Workmen.

Pitman, trustees, Quito a sensation has lieen created in Laurens county over tho disappearance of Miss Alice Jackson, a beautiful blonde maiden. For more than two years Mr. Fos ter, a popular young man of tho neighbor hood, has been paying court to Miss Alice, very much against tho wishes of the old people. Her lather, Mr. Isaiah Jackson, is a good man, a practical farmer tuid a good citizen. It seems that this young Foster failed to meet at tho builds of the old heads the same favor as at those of Miss Alice, ljast Sunday “was preaching” at Bethany church, near Condor, a small town, and the young winsome lassie wished to hpar the Scripture propounded, and for one time within two years tlie mother was prevailed upon to allow her to go ulone to attend wor ship, or go elsewhere, without the maternal supervision and watch. Tho services were beguu und ended, the people began to return THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY. JUNE 19, 1887-TWELVE PAGES. home, evening came on, the shadows had lengthened and nightfall came on, and to a watchful and waiting mother no news came. Nothing has yet been heard of the where abouts of the fair Miss Alice, nor is it knowu whether or not she is under the guardian ship of a patient lover. Mr. and Mrs. Jack son are greatly alarmed at their daughter’s unaccountable disappearance, but the out side world say that a love that has grown and ripened for two long years has been re warded. An accident occurred Thursday morning on the Southwestern railroad, two miles lie yond Americus, which came very near re sulting seriously for Mr. Item Cherry. As the way freight from Montgomery, En gineer Robert Farris and Fireman Item Cherry, was approaching the ftbove-namod place one of the flues inside the engine burst, forcing open the fire-door and throwing a volume ot hot steam and water upon the two men. Mr. Farris was upon his seat and es capod the full force of the escaping steam and water. He blew for brakes and stuck his head out of the window to keep from being suffocated. Mr. Cherry-was not so for tunate. He was just in the act of putting fuel in the furnace when the accident oc curred, and was thrown violently against his seat upon which he managed to get, but found the situation was very little better. The train was running too fast to jump off, so he made a desperate jump for the tender and was successful and placed himself out of dan ger, but not before he was considerably sqalded and bruised. Mr. Ferris received a slight bum on the hand. The train was soon stopped by the brakes, as all the steam in the engine escaped in a very few min utes. When tin down train reached Ameri cas, the engine went down and brought the crippled train to that place, where it was side-tracked, thus causing very little delay to the other trains. Mr. Cherry came in on the afternoon passenger, and will proba bly lie laid up for several days. FLORIDA. Buckwheat grows well at Hawthorne. Watermelons are plentiful in Ocala at 25c. each.

Monticello Constitution: A most remark able incident occurred at Waukeenah last week. As Mr. W. P. Belliger was going from his store home he was overtaken by a slight shower, and heard a jingling in the air above, when something like a hailstone or pebble struck him on the head and fell to the ground.

Sometime since the Ocala Banner con tained the brief announcement that Hugh Hay craft had eloped with Miss Jessie Mc- David, both of fellowship, and got married. It is almost needless to add that stern, un relenting parental opposition was the cause. Since then Mrs. Me David's poor health com pelled her to seek the exhilarating sea breezes of the Ancient City, which has thrown Capt. McDavid on his own re sources, and in consequence of loneliness, and someone to preside acceptably over his cosy home, his heart relented and he sent word to the young couple to come to “papa,” as he was ready and willing to for give the past and invoke a benediction on the future, and now the young folks preside at the Captain’s mansion, and everything is lovely.
