•I, ~ nuMtwly forwarding their annual
t,U * U fVir 1887 to Atlanta. Friday,
M;u ' • L.ed from Oglethorpe county,
ilig to up to date. All tho di
filheria. previous to Friday showed a
tiogruo*!* / •
commendable increase in the amount of
property returned, only one falling behind.
But tho returns from Oglethope county, as
si :,t in, were simply appallingto the officers.
The county is one of the oldest, most popu
lous ami Ixwt in the (State, and yet there is a
foiling off in the value of property since the
digest of 1886 of $189,886. The enormous
decrease is simply unaccountable in the
opinion of the officials in the department.
It does not seem passible that such a depre
ciation of values could occur in one county,
when all the other counties around it are in
creasing in wealth. The only plausible ex
planation of the matter seems to bo that the
officer in making up his returns overlooked
some district.
Comptroller General Wright received
Friday, the application of the Insurance
Company of Virginia for permission to do
business in Georgia. This is the second ap
plication the company has made, the first
Doing filed some time last year. The law re
quires foreign companies to have on depisit
with tlie proper officers in their state SIOO,-
000 in paid up capital, invested in stocks and
bonds estimated at their market value at
the time the statement is made, or have
assets to that, amount. Tho Life Insurance
Company of Virginia, in its application,
made the statement that it had $19,000 paid
up capital, the SBI,OOO remaining being
invested in notes given by tho stock
holders of the company. Major Pegram, of
Rielunond, was with the Comptroller Fri
day, and the matter was argued by them.
The company’s ngent explained tnat the
reason why it had not more paid up capital
was because it hail never found the need of
it. That these personal notes were secured
by mortgages on real estate in sums double
the amounts, that the company had been in
operation for eighteen years, and during
that time had never been in litigation and
had never compromised a loss, 'rho Comp
troller General disclaimed any intention of
reflecting upon the solvency of the com
pany, hut declared that inasmuch as the
statement did not come up to the require
ments of the law, he would have to refuse
the application.
Twenty-four years ago Joseph Summer
lin, a well-to-do planter of Douglas county,
died. Tho testator left a property supposed
to be valued at about $7.7,1)00. Ilis legatees
were his wife and her two children, the is
sue of that marriage. By a former mar
riage there) were a son and daughter, who
were not mentioned in the will of the testa
tor. It was said that he had given to each
of the children by the first marriage that
portion of tho estate during his life which
would equal their inheritance after his
death. The will was contested in the courts,
and was allowed to lie probated, but on a
second trial was set aside. Tho case
was taken to the Supreme Court,
and while pending there, a settlement
was effected, by which tho two
children of the first marriage received two
thirds of the estate, leaving the remaining
one-third of the estate to the widow and her
two children. When the two younger
children—those by tho second wife—grew
to bo older, they supposed that they had
been badly treated, and fiiorl a bill in equity
against the administrator and their half
brother’s administrator, the ground being
that the entire estate belonged to thorn. At
the last term of Douglas Superior Court the
Master in Chancery was appointed, and for
several days the argument has been going
on before him. But little of tho original
fortune is left, $4,000 being said to cover tho
amount. The Chancellor has not given his
decision.
At Griffin tho excitement that for two or
three weeks burned at fever heat in reference
to H. O. Wood, had atiout cooled down to a
normal heat, when it was revived, and
quickly ran up to one hundred and twenty
in the shade, and now Wood is again fully
discussed. The postmaster received a few
days ago a letter making some inquiry about
H. O. Wood, and promising to give some in
formation in reference to the gentleman.
That information was received Saturday,
and consisted of an exact likeness of Wood
and the following circular: “Eu

W. Va., July, 1887. —Arrest J. Oakly Craw

A more perfect or life-like picture of
“Major” 11. O. Wood could not have been
drawn. A telegram from Chief Burnett
states that Crawford, or Wood, as he is
known, is wanted in Charleston, XV. Va.,
for getting money under false pretense, and
that full particulars of his career while there
have been mailed to them. Crawford has
worked his schemes in Denver, Cincinnati,
Charleston, W. Va., Grifliu and several
other places.

The Tavares Saw and Planing Mill was
burned a week ago, together with about 25,-
(KXI feet of lumber. The loss is from $13,000
to $15,000, with little or no insurance. The
mill was the property of Charles Joy, of Or
lando, who had acquired it from W. R. Gu
lick and C. M. Orth, who operated it under
the firm name of the Tavares Lumber Com
pany. They purchased the property of Wil
liam Ross, of New Hampshire, who had pur
chased it from Maj. St. Clair-Abrams, who
hod owned and operated a mill here
since the founding of the town, over
five years ago. On June 23, 1882,
it was burned, with the machinery
and lumber, making a total loss of $50,000,
upon which there was no insurance. The
old mill was located higher up on the lake,
its site being marked by the accumulated
sawdust. It will thus lie seen that it has
had an eventful and checkered career. The
mill had not lieen in operation for a month
until last week, and work had been in prog
ress on the day of tho fire. The mill was
comparatively new, ami anew tubular steel
boiler had been recently added to the ma
chinery. A large number of hands are
thrown out. of employment. Several thous

tance away, and was saved.
Jacksonville \ei vs- Herald: On several
occasions during the past few days, the
writer has taken notice of a negro parading
through Bay street *ith a sixteen-shooter,
breach-loading Winchester rifle. So fre
quent have been these meetings, that the
newspaper man wondered what the fellow
meant by going around in this manner.
With a view to finding out a well-known
man aliout town was asked if he know any
thing about it. “Yes,” he replied, “that
fellow is known by tho name of Gilbert
Armstrong, and he is a well-known negro
gambler, and tho reason, as I have heard
him express it himself, for carrying that
gun is for tho express purpose of killing
another negro‘knight of the green cloth. -
The- circumstances which led up to this
determination of Armstrong’s,” continued
tho reporter’s informer, “are these: About
two weeks ago Armstrong, together witli a
number of negroes of tho same ilk. went
into Tom Claiborne’s saloon, a notorious
negro dive in LuVilla, and engaged in a
game of cards, when some dissatisfaction
aro e and the game ended in a fight and a
general row. took a position
in the door of the room, with a view of
preventing any one from going out, when a
negro from Palatka drew his pistol and tired
at Armstrong, the ball just grazing the top
of his skull, passing off without serious in
jury. Armstrong at once created a vacancy
in that door, ana immediately went off and
liought the rifle you see him carrying, and I
have heard him say frequently since that it
was his firm intention to kill on sight tho
man who shot at him on the occasion men
tioned.”

On the streets at Columbus Friday the
temperature was almost unendurable. At
7 o’clock the heat rendered further sleep im

from the Sheriff’s office that an accident had
happened to the thermometer on the street
in front of Dr. Jackson’s, the top of tho tube
having been pushed out, and that the mer
cury was running up the sign-post. This
was found to lie slightly exaggerated, how
ever, as the thermometer mentioned has a
very high registering capacity, and the
mercury had only reached a hundred and
forty odd degrees m the sun.

The sinking fund commission met at Col

portance before the board was the consider
ation of bids for the purchase of the Owen
ilaw and Wythe wood tracts of land in
Berkeley county. There were only two bids re

acre, and sent as his earnest a check for
$1,350. Mr. Salinas made no statement as
to whether he proposed to be a cash pur
chaser or not, nnd as this information could
not tie ascertained by the board, ami as the
earnest of Mr. Salinas was $22 below the
one-fourth required to be deposited, the sale
of these two valuable tracts ofNand was
made to tho Berkeley Lmd and Stock Com
pany. This company was the first to make
any proposition to the State for the pur
chase of these lands. Its first offer was 35c.
jier acre, but the commission decided to ad
vertise tlie lands and give every one a
chance to bid. The commission have made
for the State by this delay over $1,500.
This tract of over 15,0(X) acres of land is
not forfeited land, but was bought by the
State for hard cash at several times tho
jirice it was sold for to-day, but the jiros
jiects of ever making a more advantageous
sale were jxKir anil tho commission decided
that it would be best to sell the land at a
low figure to some individual or company
who would improve it nnd make its taxable
vaiue very large. The now owners will
convert this immense tract into a cattle
ranch, for which purpose it is admirably
adapted. The plantations have water com
munication with Charleston via Owendaw
creek. Some ot the finest rice, cotton and
timber lands in the State are also included
in this tract. For years it has been tho
habitation of the alligator, the opossum,
tlie "coon" and other wild animals. The
negro squatter has cultivated small jmtehes
of rice, and when the State has ascertained
his whereabouts he has paid two or three
bushels of rice jier acre rent.
