There is a novel bet in existence between
two Atlanta men. It grows out of the old
idea that if rain falls qp the first dog day it
will fall on every one of the forty days.
Forty dollars is the amount for tue pot.
Whenever it rains the man who bet on the
rain takes a dollar. Whenever tho day is
fair the other feUow takes a dollar. So far
the rain man has won steadily since July

prove that he wus the man they would
make it warm for him hereafter.
Last year Hon James M Smith, of Ogle

by overflow. He is badly damaged this
year, his loss from this cause amounting to
thousands of bushels. Mr. Smith is pro
paring, in fact, to build a huge dyke around
tils creek plantations for the purpose of pro
tecting his land against such an overflow.
He had the plans made out last year, and
will probably do the work this fall. It will
cost him between s3.ixxt and $5,U00, with
his labor already at his command. .Such au
Improvement would iay for itself iu a few
years.
John Shiver and Luke Cooper eloped on

Georgia over into Lowndes, and married
her at Mr. Jack Dampier's residence near
Oosley —Rev. N. B. Ousley officiating.
John Shiver went in the other direction
with Miss Alice, and they were married.
For some reason the parents of the young
ladies objected to their union witli these
young men. Both are said to be steady ami
hard working young farmers.
borne time ago ex-President Jefferson
Davi* wrote to Maj. Sidney Root, of At
lanta, for maps of the Chattahoochee val
ley. The maps were duly forwarded, with
a letter from Maj. Root offering his services
to Mr. Davis and his family. The following
was received this morning In reply: Beau
voir. Miss., Aug. 2, 1887. Sidney Root,
Esq.—My Dear Sir: 1 offer to you my sin
cere thanks for your kind letter of the 2Stli
ult.. and for your compliance with inv re
quest for a map of the country lieyond the

Major Burke, of the New Orleans Timrs-
Demo<-rat, and a party of friends from New
York, Birmingham uiid New Orleans, liave
purchased 8,000 acres of land in Haralson
county. The land is situated near Talla
poosa and is very valuable mineral land.
This purchase includes the old Holland gold
mine, and there is said to 1> a grout deal of
gold ore on the tract which has been pur
chased. The now purchasers expect soon to
erect a SIOO,(WU plant to treat tlie gold ore
on their property, and will go ahead devel
oping their property. Th'-sn gentlemen
haven’t finished tiicir purchases of mineral
laud, but, having great confidence in the re
sources or Georgia, ure going nheud quietly,
buying what pleases them and, it is said,
paying cash for it. They express great
faith in their investments.
Fo- n work or two post Edmondson & Cos.,
of Koine, have been missing some of their
mail. As letter- they knew that they ought
to have received failed to arrive made them
think something was wrong. Nothing
turned up, however, until a lot of the Ann's
letters, tom ur>. were fouud near the Bap
tist church. About the same time a postal
note, which had boon sent this firm from
Cave Hpriug, was also found, but at
a different place. An 11-year-old
negro boy was accused of having stolen it.
This be admitted, and said ho had liern get

Newnan Herald-Advertiser: Mr. P-t-r
M-r-p-y went on a jaunt to Suit Springs a
few days ago. and while a guest at the
Sweetwater Park hotel a reception was ten
dered (Jot. Gordon. Among other engaging
features of the levee, and one that interested
him very much, wns the shameless oscilla
tory liberties that the Governor took with
the young ladies present. He kissed every
one that came in his way, and out of a i*j
sible seventy-five P-ter is certain that not
more than half a dozen escaped. While
talking to his best girl, in that earnest, in
genious manner which he knows so well
how to assume at a summer resort, the
Governor came forward and imprinted
a resounding smack upon the rosy lips of
the fair Amelia. The impudence of the act,
and the tantalizing serenity with Which his
charmer emerged from the ordeal, was
more than P-ter could stand. He fainted.
Anxious friends gathei-ed around and finally
succeeded in restoring him to consciousness,
though he is yet feeble from the effects of
his prostration. P-t-r says he was a stal
wart Gordon man in the last campaign, and
gave him a vote when votes were scarce;
but he hereby warns the Governor that if
he ever trifles with his feelings in like man
ner again he will lose a valuable constituent.
Tallapoosa Journal: Mr. Spencer, man
ager of the Tallapoosa land, Mining and
Manufacturing Company, has just finished
a map iu colors, showing the different in
vestments in mineral lands and the location
of the important mineral veins in the
vicinity of Tallapoosa. A radius of six
miles from tho centre of the town shows in
vestments by the following companies: The
Burke syndicate—gold; Mobile syndi
cate—gold; Cincinnati syndicate—
gold; Birmingham iron syndicate;
Birmingham gold syndicate; Eust Ala
bama Gold Dredging Company
—gold; Tallapoosa Land, Mining and Man
ufacturing Company. In acreage the Tal
lapoosa I .and, Mining and Manufacturing
Company comes flint, with 8,000 acres; the
Burke syndicate next, with 2,800 acres; tho
Mobile, with 500 acres; the Cincinnati, with
500 acres, and the East Alabama Gold
Mining and Dredging Company, with the
Tallapoosa nver bottoms. The important
minerals, as shown on this map, are gold,
silver, copper, marble, brown hematite, Bes
semer ore and manganese, and are indicated
by different colors. The less important miner
als on this lead are rhodonite, mica, asbestos,
graphite, corundum, talc, tripoli, slate,
kaolins, fire-clays, etc. Tho map also shows
the exact direction or the lead, which is, in
tho main, northeast and southwest, the
numbers and sections of the lots, railroads
built and surveyed, the location of the pres
ent town of Tallapoosa, and the 2,400 acres
of town lauds about it which the company
owns.
Quitman Free Press: Sheriff McNeil has
received a letter from W. D. Atkinson, a
lawyer of Evergreen, Ala., asking for in
formation about James A. Daw and Mrs.
Catharine Page, of that place. They were
both married and ran away and left their
families about May 15 and came to this
place Where they spent a month. They
passed as brother and sister, and had
rooms at Mr. James Hill’s boarding
house near the depot. They were a quiet
well-behaved couple while here, passed
off as consistent members of the Baptist
church, and regularly attended that place
of worship. No one suspected tliat they
were what they were, and they made a good
impression on qulteu number of jieople here.
The letter to Sheriff McNeil described Daw
us a man ulsmt 28 years old, light moustache
and hair, blue eyes, very bow-legged and
weight about I'3o or 185 pounds. The
woman was described as about 83 years old,
not tall but thick, heavy set. pole com
plexion, blue eyes, rather light hair nnd in
ordinately addicted to the use of snuff. To
quote from the letter, in speaking of Mrs.
rage, it said “she had run away with this
trifling puppy and bus left behind her, u
daughter aliout 15 years old, who has tho
sympathy of every one in this community.”
The letter also says “Daw has left a
family here who are on starva
tion." Daw was a deputy sheriff
in Alabama and was auspectea or taking a
lot of merchandise with him which was left
iu his charge bv the Sheriff. The couple
evidently run short of funds while here for
they were forced to pawn a bed from which
they realized sl2. They left here after a
stay of about a month and went to Colum
bus, where they probubly are now, as a let
ter was received here from Columbus writ
ten by Mrs. Pago on Aug. 1, stating that
they were in Columbus and that “her
brother” had i>een sick. The couple huve
both been indicted at Evergreen on the
charge of adultery and are badly wanted at
that place.
Tullujjoosa Journal: As Andrew Farmer,
’Esq., was passing along a lovely and se
cluded itath, which runs along the western
bank of the Tallapoosa river, he saw near
a largo pine tree fi-esh upturned earth. It
attracted his attention. It had evidently
been done tlie night Itefore. On examining
the surroundings, he saw the tracks of a
man and woman. Ho immediately went
for some of bis neighbors, and was soon
joined by Messrs. Sewell, Yancey and I-ittlc.
The four were soon at the big pine tree—
which, by the way, is one of the largest in
the county. They examined the
tracks, the tree and tho newly re
moved earth. This tree, a monster
in size, stands near the Savage Bluff, which
forces the river to make its sudden lieud
from west to south, forming that semi-cir
cle on tho Mcßride place, on which an old
Indian village used to stand. On one side
tho tree was blazed for seven feet or more,
oil the other two notches were made. All
of it had the appearance of having been
done fifty years at least. After these obser
vations tlie investigators then went carefully
to work to remove the fresh earth. After
going down two feet or more they found
where a vessel ten inches in diameter
and two feet high, had evidently rested for
many years. But it was gone.’ Many are
the surmises as to what it contained. Many
believe that some descendant of the Murrell
clan came to secure booty hidden there.
Others think that tho “Pony Club” dug the
hole, buried tho treasure and blazed and
notched the tree. Some think that a luck lee
party from 1 >.'Soto’s band wliilo prospecting
along the Golden river, were hard pressed
by Indians, and hid their gold there. But
a majority believe that some rich
Cherokee, when forced to leave the beautiful
land of the Tallapoosa, carefully hid away
his gold, and marked the tree, and that the
old Indian doctor and his wife, sjieut nevorn!
weeks at Tallupoosn, came to secure the
gold. These old Indians while here, said
many strange things about the wonderful
wealth of this region, among others, that
“the white man hail driven their fathers
from this beautiful land, but tho white man
did not know whut he hud -that ho did not
dream of tlie wealth beneath his foot,” Ac.

THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY. AUGUST 8, 1887.
Friday afternoon while Miss Mary Marsh
was fishing for black bass in Crystal Lake,
near Orlando, she caught a large mocca.-qp
snake. Becoming very much frightened at
her unusual catch sho .screamed for help,
and her father came to her aid and killed
the reptile.
Samuel Campbell, wife and child, living

About 1(X) hands are engaged at the rail
road bridge at Chattahoochee trying to

will soon be over.
On Thursday last, while some men were

T. F. Thomas was sent for, and dressed the
wounds. Several other men were at work
on the building, but all escaped injury.
Lester & Ross, of Orlando, while having
a number of lemons squeezed Friday,
came across a very peculiar freak of
nature in the shafie of a perfectly
formed lemon growing inside of
another. The inside fruit is about the
size of a walnut and is perfect in every re
spect, the only difference between it and the
outside fruit being that the color of its skin
is of a lighter and clearer yellow than its
outside or parent.
Tallahassee Floridian: Last Monday
morning Mr. Baiiev Edwards showed us a
piece of jewelry 125 years old. It was a
breastpin made in England in 1782, and con
tains a painted portrait of Mrs. Sarah Mor-
Sin, his wife's great grandmother. Mr.
arcellus Morgan, of Gadsden county,
aged 70, is a son of Mrs. Sarah Morgan anil
father of Capt. R. M. Morgan, tax collector
of that comity. Mrs. Edwards has a silver
sugar bowl made in the same year.

At Union Tuesday the factory meeting
adjourned without accomplishing any
thing. No subscriptions were received
from tho county, and the business
men at Union had pledged all they
jiossibly could. There is no luck of
interest in the enterprise or a want of appre
ciation of its benefits, hut it failed simply
from a want of money. At present the
people are very poor and in debt, and, not
withstanding the crop prospects aro excel
lent, they dare not risk money in an enter
prise that will not give a return for so long
a time.
There was a singular occurrence at Rich
burg the other day. A calf was quietly
nipping grass iu the yard of a citizen of tliat
place, when it suddenly made a peculiar
noise, and falling over, died in about five
minutes. Thg cause of its death could not
be ascertained at the time, though diligent
search was made. On the next day at the
same place, and about the same time,
another calf came to its death iu the same
mysterious way. A closer examination of
the place was made, and in a hole in an old
stump a poisonous snake was found. The
calf was examined, and on its neck the bite
of the snake was seen. The death-dealing
reptile was unceremoniously dispatched.
Monday n enthusiastic meeting
of the citizens of Murion county was held
in the court house. In tho interest of the
proposed cotton factory. Mr. Norwood
stated tlie object of the meeting, anil in a
clear and forcible manner urged the neces
sity of building a cotton factory In the town
of Marion. Several speeches’ were made,
all wanting out the incalculable benefit that
will of necessity remit from tho establish
ment of such an enterprise. It was sug
gested that o subscription be started among
the citizens present toward the capital
stock of the proposed organization. Upon
this suggestion $20,000 was subscribed im
mediately. It was determined by the meet
ing that a committee in each township be
appointed to solicit subscriptions therein. A
local committee was also appointed to take
subscriptions. It was determined to make
the capital stock SIOO,OOO, to be taken in
shares of $.50. One-half the amount sub
scribed will have to bo paid on Jan. 1, 1888.
James G. Rice, a prominent farmer and
merchant residing ut Fish Dam, writes the
following to tilt* Union-Times: “Wo had
the most unusual occurrence in this neigh
borhood, lust Tuesday evening, known to the
oldest citizen living in tlie community.
About 4 o'clock iu the afternoon there ap
peared a circular cloud ju*t overhead,
which rumbled for five minutes, and then
came down with sudden violence, accom
panied with tin* most ferocious wind I ever
saw, doing considerable damage to the for
est anti some small shells and houses. The
wind when first noticed was from northwest
to southeast aud extended about a mile wide
across the country; blew over tlie country
about two miles, then turned exactly in tlie
opposite direction, southeast to northwest,
blowing down considerable corn in oppo
site directions nnd iu the different localities
through which it passed, injuring it in sortie
place seriously. It must have been a cloud
burst, from its actions. The samo cloud
came down suddenly while the ground was
dry, the cotton withered and the sun so hot
that the cotton was literally scalded from
bottom to top leaf. The oldest Inhabitants
sav they never knew anything like it, nnd
there ure whole acres that apparently look
dead, presenting the appearance of frost
having fallen on it. It is roullv a curiosity,
and is worth coming from Union to see
What will he the outcome of it is uncertain.
The forms and stalks seem nlivo, but the
leaves are as crisp as when l'rost falls on
them. One crop looked unusually Him be
fore this, and it would huve Itoen best for
us not to have had the rain at tho time it
came.”
Hlnce the election on tho question of pro
hibition under the new act for Anderson
aud Laurens counties has been orderssl the
friends of the bill are in high spirits and
claim that the result will be overwhelmingly
111 favor of prohibition. They organized
weal is culled the Laurens County Prohibi
tion Association soon niter the jm.vsnge of
the Murray bill by the Legislature, and
wave bccu thoroughly orgauued during the
campaign, which has been so far remarkably
active. Various committees were appointed
to canvass the county for signatures to the
petition of landowners, and the work has
been accomplished. The decree of Judge
Norton in the Anderson case, which was to
the effect that petitions could lie received up to
I Aug. 15, fell like a bomb in the camp of the
“Anti's." It was the general impression
that hearing the petition of a majority of
the landowners was a condition precedent,
and that no election could be ordered until
the requisite signatures were obtained.
Unless those who are opposed to this bill
can succeed in defeating the election there is
little hope for their cause. The various
churches have taken the matter in hand and
have been bolding meetings for some weeks,
and have a number of appointments still to
fill. The colored people in Laurens are also
taking great interest in the matter and are
holding services at their churches daily,
preaching and praying for prohibition.
They will continue the “sunrise prayer
meeting” daily until Aug. It), tho day of
election. While it can not be said that
there is any organized opposition to prohi
bition in Laurens county, yet a few of the
local liquor dealers have employed counsel
to fight the bill in the courts.
Summerville has had her cyclone and
earthquake, and now she has her titled no
bility in the pel-son of “George Richard
Simons Visser, Earl of Harinxsma.” The
Earl first made his appearance in the fall of
of 188(5. He came to Summerville, it is
said, from Baltimore, and during his stay
was employed us a prescription clerk at the
drug store of Dr. Samuel I'rioleau, where
be was known and called “Dr. George
Simons.” During the last throe or four
years, exclusive of a short residence in Bal
timore, it is said he lived in Texas, a state
ment which one could most readily believe,
judging from the width of his sombrero
and the dashing style of his equestrianism.
Dr. Simons was not recognized as
handsome. Ho is low of stature,
fine eyes, dark hair and beard, and a com
plexion that Deal's indisputable evidence of
an acquaintance with the plains of Texas
rather than Jthe earldom of Harinxsma.
The “Earl” claimed that he was “English,
you know,” but this was discredited by
many by reason of his strong teutonic ac
cent, which savored greatly of a longer resi
dence near the Rhine than in tho big city on
the Thames. Summervillians, as a general
rule, are not easily excited, but one can
readily imagine the surprise and amazement
that spreud through the town when it was
announced that the following invitation had
been sent out: “Mrs. L. R. Y’ose requests
the pleasure of your company at the mar
riage of her daughter, Mary Frances,
to George Richard Simons Visser,
Earl of Harinxsma, Tuesday evening,
Aug. 2, at home.” This was the first authen
tic information received that for nearly a
year the people have been living in blissful
ignorance of the fact that they had a real
live earl in their midst. The bride is well
known, being a daughter of tho late Capt.
Carsteii Vose, and for some time a leader
in social circles. Tho marriage ceremony,
which took place at the residence of the
bride’s mother, in the presence of tlie imme
diate family and a few very intimate friends,
was performed by the Rev. L. F. Ouery.
The Earl and his bride left by the Columbia
train for Charleston, where they will remain
a few days before going to Richmond, Va.,
where they will spend tne honeymoon.
The Court of General Sessions convened
at Edgefield Monduy. The Grand Jury
made the following sensational report:
“The committee appointed to examine the
books of tlie public officers find those of the
Judge of Probate, Sheriff, Clerk of the
Court, Auditor, Treasurer, and School
Commissioner, in good condition und well
kept. Tho books of the County Commis
sioners are also in good condition, but the
Comity Commissioners have failed iu many
instances to fulfill the requirements of the
law. If their whole duty had been per
formed, it would not have been necessary
for our special committee to re
main at tuo court-house six days to
perform tho duty imposed on them.
The County Commissioners, instead of
making out itemized accounts, • have
simply charged the county with 100 days'
work, and so many days traveled. We
recommend that hereafter their accounts bo
not approved by the Auditor, unless they
be made out strictly in accordance with sec
tion 037 of the General Statutes. Wo also
find that tho County Commissioners have
failed to do their duty in approving the
bonds of certain of tlie county officers. The
sureties of the Treasurer and Sheriff have
justified to an amount exceeding their
bonds, yet the Auditor's books do not show
property above liabilities. We recommend
that they be strengthened. The bombs of
the Clerk of tho Court and County Commis
sioner Crouch should also lie strengthened.
Tho Coroner’s bond is insufficient, and we
recommend that his bond be perfected in
thirty days, or tho office lie declared vacant.
We find the Master’s office in a deplorable
condition. Without a thorough examina
tion of his books from the time of his ap
pointment to office to the present
date, there are no books by which
we can find out the amount of money
in his hands belonging to his office. From
his last annual report it appears that he had
on hand at that time $5,710 54. He claims
that since that report lie has received $lO,-
