There are several prisoners in the peni
tentiary for the crime known as beastiality.
j Formerly the punishment for the crime was
life imprisonment, but of late years the
1-legislature has reduced it to not more than
fifteen years and not less than five.
There are several prisoners who are
now serving life terms, and it is
sad that an effort will be made to
have the Governor commute their sen
tences, as they have in some instances al
ready served as long as the full limit of the
law now imposes.
Adjt. Kell has not yet heard definitely
what company will illustrate Georgia’s citi
zen soldiery at the centennial celebration in
Philadelphia in October. It begins to look
as if the State will not have any military
representation beyond the Governor and the
numerous colonels on his staff. But a short
time remains for arrangements to bo made,
and unless one of the numerous Savannah
companies decide to go, the outlook will lie
bad for a military contingent from Georgia.
The State will be well represented in the
person of its Chief Magistrate and his mili
tary staff.

the young Atlanta lawyer, who has under
taken the defense of Tfiomas G. WoolfOlk,

Walker, of Morgan county, and a grandson
of tiie late Judge Reynolds, of this city. He
was a bright boy, and went to school in
Covington, but afterward graduated at
Washington and Lee college in the class of
1883. Since that time he has been engaged
in the practice of law, and is said to be
achieving success.”

their neighborhood that they want at the
present writing, and have* published the
caption of a bill that they propose to intro
duce in the Legislature in the next thirty
days, that no spirituous or malt liquors shall
be sold within three miles of the church.
This has roused some of the whisky men
who were thinking of opening a barroom in
that neighborhood, and they propose to fight
the bill to the bitter end. There will be tte
titions and counter petitions gotten up for
and against it.

A. E. Williams in Columbus Enquirer-
Sun: “Harris county has developed a mon
strosity in the way of a Baptist preacher, so
called, and this Baptist preacher, so-called,
is a pastor of two Baptist churches, so
called. lam reliably informed that this
so-called minister of the gospel preaches
non-intercommunion between churches of
the same faith and order, that he tights pro
hibition with might and main on the
ground that liquor is a harmless beverage,
and that on Saturday last, to cap the climax
of his crooked doctrines,he actually preached
in the Baptist church ut Hamilton that the
soul is mortal and not immortal. Now,
while this ‘piney-woods wool-hat preacher,’
as he takes pride in calling himself, is crim
inally at fault, the churches of which he is
pastor are not one whit less to blame for al
lowing him the use of their pulpits in a pas
toral relation to promulgate his unsoriptu
ral doctrines. If it. is true that this man
preuches against the immortality of the
soul, then the Columbus Association cannot
da otherwise than to sever their connection
with tiie churches of which he is a pastor.
1 am told that on yesterday, when the
Lord’s table was sot in the Baptist church
at Hamilton and the ordinance was ready
to lie administered, that this so-calhsl minis
ter of tlto Gospel delilierately picked up his
hat anil walked out.”

William Hebb, one of the firm of sawmill
men of Hebb A Cos., of Auburndale, was
bitten on the ankle on last Friday by a large
water moccasin. Carbolic acid was quickly
applied to the deep and painful wound made
by the sharp fangs of the sei-pent. As soon
as possible a pint of whisky was adminis

W. A. Campbell’s residence at Orlando
had a narrow escape from fire on Saturday
night. The family had retired f.r the night,
leaving all the windows and screens up to
catch as much fresh air as possible. On one
of the windows a large box of matches had
been left, ami a slight gust of wind loosen
ing the wire screen, it came down, striking
and igniting the box of matches. In a mo
ment the house was Ailed with smoke and
sulphur, and had it not happened so soon
after the family retired, Mr. Campbell says
the house would, in all probability, have
burned, and the cause of the conflagration
never been known.
Sumner C. Chandler was at Auburndale
last week inspecting Florida Southern rail
road reserve lands in the interest of parties
who had bought “float claims” of the rail
road company several years ago. These
lands were faily forfeited by the Florida
Southern Railroad Company, not building
within the preserilied six-mile limit. They
speculated on these lands by selling them
while held only in reserve "by the State.
They hail no legal right to do this, and con
sequently the purchases of the “floats” have
no color of tit.o where an actual settler in
the country may have a claim, acquired by
occupancy or improvements in this class of
land.
L. F. Willis’ saw and planing mills, at
Crescent City, were burned Saturday at
midnight. When first noticed the flames
seemed to lie emanating from the central
fmrtion of the larger building, where was
most of the machinery. The flames had
such a hold that it was impossible to save
any part of the structures, although buck
ets of water had been put on the roof and in
other places by way of precaution. In
about an hour the whole was a smoulder
ing and smoking heap of ruins. Many citi
zens gathered, and considerable lumber out
side of the mills was saved. The total
loss is estimated at about $18,000; on which
there was no insurance. A couple of large
dry houses had been erected on the east
side only a Short time before, and the flint
use had been made of them on the day pre
vious to the fire.
Mr. , lately of Daytona, finding busi
ness dull and prospect® sliin, began to seek
some way of finding the mighty dollar. En
tering one of*the stores he purchased, with
the few dimes still in his possession, several
pounds of whiting and enough vermilion to
produce a delicate pink when thoroughly
mixed. The blend, which was quite attract
ive, was then put in ounce boxes ready for
the market. With all Yankee ingenuity he
persuaded people to buy his precious article,
called “Mineral,” which he had discovered
many years ago in California. The
preparation was described to be
odorless, tasteless, harmless, and warranted
to clean any kind of metal, to clean the
teeth and purify the breath. To one of the
prominent boarding house keepers he sold
six boxes, while the aggregate sales in and
about the town amounted to several dozen.
Since the mountebank’s departure victims
learn that eight cents will buy a pound of
such stuff, but they remain perfectly quiet
on the subject.
DeFuniak Critio: There is an old adage
which says that a fool and his money are
soon parted, a sayiug that is already verified
in the suit of 8 S. Leonard against Walton
county for $2,000 damages. S, S. Leonard
lias seen fit to change his mind in regard to
being damaged by the county, and has
brought suit against Walton for $2,000.
Let's see how lie figures $2,000 out of about
four or five trips to DeFuniak Springs at a
cost of $6 or #7 per trip. Say he made five
trips, nt $7 per trip, and it would only be
$35. Then add a small fee to his lawyer
for that contract he drew up to
swindle the county out of about $1,300
interest, and you will have about
$45 or SSO. This is about all that it ever
costs 8. S. Leonard—not half of what it
cost Walton county by the Commissioners
fooling away their time with him. The idea
of a man wanting $2,000 profit on a piece of
work he never touched, and we don’t believe
he really knew how to do, is too utterly ab
surd. When he gets damages from us he
will lie quite an old man, but, it is to be
hoped, a much wiser one. When the suit is
ended the young man will realize that there
are really fewer green horns here than he
expected to find whon he tried to bulldoze
the Commissioners into signing his con
tract for negotiable interest-bearing notes.
Whoop her up, sonny, and we’ll stick to
you, and don't you forget it.
YONAH TREMBLES.
The Earth Groans and Quivers—
Streaks of Gold Said to be in Sight.
From the Atlanta {Ga.) Journhl.
A startling story comes from White
county.
Joint Stevens, of this city, received a
letter Tuesday morning from Mr. John
Griudell, which states that considerable ex
citenient prevails in Warcoocliic valley, in
the neighborhood of Mount Younh. on ac
count of an underground disturbance,
which opened a largo crevice in Mount
Yonah.
On Saturday last, so the writer states,
about 10 o’clock in the morning, there was
heard a peculiar rumbling as of distant,
thunder. The strange sound was repeated
three times at intervals of twenty or thirty
seconds. Immediately after the last rum
bling a slight tremor of the earth was felt,
and the trees rustled as if a storm was ap
proaching. There are parties who saw
loose dirt moving, at different places, down
the side of the mountain.
A few hours after the strange disturbance
some persons who were near the top of the
mountain discovered that it had [xirtod,
leaving a long, narrow chasm running
across one of tho \ieaks, and extending more
than 100 yards. An examination of the
crevice showed large veins of wliat appeared
to lie pure gold, some eight or ten inches
thick. Further investigations will be made
at once.
So runs the startling story as it comes to
Mr. Stovens.
The Representative from White county
was seen by a Journal reporter at the capi
tal, and stabs) that he believed the whole
thing was u canard. He lives within two
mill's of the top of Mount Yonah, and no
such news had boon sent to him.
Tho fact that the Warms icliio valley and
Mount Yonah are in tin* “gold belt'’ gives
sumo color to the story ns told by Mr. Grin
doll. Mr. Stevens nays he knows the writer
wall, and that he is u reliable gent leman. .
The Eighth Georgia’s Battle Flag.
fViim the U <me Hultctin.
In our offline is the battle flag of t he Eighth
Georgia Regiment of Volunteers, who fought
under Island Stonewall Jackson during the
late war between t'e States. We thought,

perhaps forgotten to many, and yet
it serves to illustrate the devotion and

SHE GAVE HIM AWAY.
The Wife of a Fugitive from Justice
Tells That He is Wanted in Macon.
From the Macon If la.) Teleyraph.
Postmaster Hardeman, of Macon, received
the following telegram from Boston:
“A man giving the name of Thomas N.
Faircloth is under arrest for assault at Great
Falls, N. H. His wife says he is wanted by
ixTstal authorities for obtaining money under
false protensions at your office, in spring of
188(i. If that is true, telegraph me, and I
will have him for you.”
The telegram was turned over to Col. L.
M. Lamar, United Htates Marshal, who
wired that Faircloth was indicted for the
offense, and to hold him.
It seems that Thomas W. Faircloth was a
factory operative in Macon, and came hero
from Columbus. While here, during the
month of May, 1886, a letter was mailed at
Eufaula, Ala., by John P. Foy & Bro., cov
ering a check for $3O, sent to Thomas N.
Faircloth by his uncle, B. H. Jackson. This
letter is alleged to have been taken out of
the Macon post office by Thomas W. Fair
cloth, who soon thereafter went to Colum
bus. He presented the check to one of the
banks there for payment, but found it neces
sary to have someone to identify him. He
called on Mr. Swift, of that place, who went
to the bank and said he knew the man
who presented the check to be Tom Fair
cloth. Thus satisfied, the chock was prompt
ly paid. In due course of timo it was dis
covered that Thomas N. Faircloth had not
received the check, but that it had been
paid to Thomas W. Faircloth in Columbus.
In the meantime, before it could bo discov
ered that Thomas W. had jM-rsonated Thom
as N., the said Thomas W. had fled to parts
unknown. Ho was traced by Deputy Mar
shal Walter Corbett through the and ‘puties to
New Hampshire, and then he was lost until
the receipt of the telegram yesterday.
The theory is that the assault spoken of in
the telegram was upon his wife, who has
thus given him away. He will be probably
brought to Macon to stand trial. He was
indicted by the grand jury at the October
term of 1886. The Thomas N. Faircloth, to
whom the check rightfully belonged, is in
Macon and lives in Mechanicsville.
The Right Kind of Pluck.
From the Awjusta (C/a.) Chronicle.
Mr. C. A. Hill, on© of the leading and
most prosperous young farmers of Hancock
county, is in the city to-day to purchase
bagging and ties for his cotton crop before
they make the usual advance in price. In his
farming operations Mr. Hill has always
made it a rule to utilize every opportunity
to save the “littles,” and his success at the
business is such as to commend the practice
universally. Seven years ago he was a mere
stripling that had to tie a big stone to his
back in order to balance bis plow. He was
then what the farmers call a “wage hand,”
working on a rich man’s plantation from
daylight till dark for the princely sum of
$8 per month. Dospite his light weight Rtid
still lighter salary he kept his plow
in the ground and operated the
bell cord over his i>atient Kentucky
mule with untiring earnestness. For three
years he followed this routine, his wages
being increased every year. At last one
cold Christmas morning the rich nmn called
him to his desk and asked him how he would
like to farm the next year on shares. The
young employe was, of course, delighted,
and a bargain was at once closed. At the
end of that year, despite a long drought
that ruined all the neighbors’ crops, our
young hero’s panned out a net income of
about $1,200. One tuoi o year of still lietter
success, a . I the ambitious young farmer
concluded t hat he would invest some of his
spare change in a plantation of his own.
An adjoining farm just suited
his pile, and he soon had the
deed in his own name. A fine buggy
and horse were added to the list of farm
implements, and one or two additional
mulos kicked up their dangerous heels in the
lot. The drought came and freshets fol
lowed that literally lifted other people’s soil
off their farms, but at the end or each year
young Hill's cotton crop sized up tnrec
fourths of a bag to the acre, and his barns
were so full of corn and other stuff which
some farmers have to send West for that he
had to add sheds to them. To-day Mr. Hill
owns one of the best farms in Hancock
county, with plenty of cash money to run
one three times as big, and doesn’t want
any rich man to adopt him or will him
a fortune.
Letter from Hon Jefferson Davis.
From the Guyton ( Ga .) Chronicle.
The following letter received some
time since from Mr. Davis was to have
been read at the reunion of the 3d Ga. Reg

My Dear Sir:—
I have received yours of July 21,
inviting me to attend a reunion of the
Survivors of the third Georgia Regiment.
It would give mo great pleasure to meet
those gallant men at a social reunion, and to

manded my admiration when in tho
beginning of the war they carnet' the de
fense of Virgiuia and confirmed it by their
prompt re-enlistment for a longer term

A SINGULAR SHAFT.
Description of an Old Excavation in
Oconee County.
From the Athens (Oa.) Banner- Watclmmn.
In Oconee county, near High Sboafc, on
the river, Hog Mountain road, is a place of
peculiar and historical interest. We refer
to the place now owned by Mrs. Matilda A.
Thomas, and where she now resides. The
house of this lady is one of the oldest in this
section of the State and was once used as a
fort by the early settlers, as a place of ref
uge against hostile Indians The Appa
lacbeo river, less than a mile from this place,
was the divaline line between the white
and Indian ter: it fry, and the hostile red
skins would niHke frequent raids into the
white settlement. This house is built of
large hewn logs, in which port holes were
cut for the guns.
After passing this house, going towards
Jug Tavern, you come toashort and abrupt
hill, leading down to a creek. Near the top
of this hill is an excavation in tho earth,
now probably 10 or 12 feet deep and of an
oblong shape, and about 80 feet in length.
Tho oldest settlers can give no account of
this shaft. There are two stories in regard
to it. One is that it was dug out as a fort
by the first white men as a protection against
the hostile Indians, while others think it is
a shaft sunk by tho Indians in search of pre
cious metals.
This section of Oconee county abounds in
mineral wealth. Iron, mica and even silver
is found. The water power in High Shoals
was first developed for iron works, the ore
being taken from Judge Thompson’s place,
in Morgan county, and the Stephen Jackson
place, in Oconee county. One of the largest
deposits of mica in this section is found on
Mr. Thomas’ place, and during the mica
excitement about a year ago Mr. J. N.
Ridgeway secured a mineral lease on he,r
land and went to considerable expense to
develop it. He sunk two shafts, one near
the old hole we have described, and another
in a field about a mile distant. The shafts
are about 25 feet in depth. Near the old
hole, after lioring for some depth, he struck
a rock and in which he made several blasts,
the powder throwing rock with veins in it
as black as ink. A gentleman took some of
these stones to Atlanta and had them ex
amined, and the chemist pronounced it sil
ver ore of an excellent quality. Mr. Ridge
way intends to examine further into this
matter and will clean out the old shaft to
discover its depths and for what purpose it
was sunk. He says he has more confidence
in the mica than the silver ore, as he has
developed the former mineral sufficient to
know that it exists in large quantities.
CUTICURA REMEDIE®
BABY’S SCALP.
Milk Crust, Dandruff, Eczema and All
Scalp Humors Cured byCutlcura.
rAST November my little boy, aged 3 years,
J fell against the stove while he was running,
and cut his head, and, right after that, he broke
out all over his head, face and left ear. I had a
good doctor. Dr. ——, to attend him, but he
got worse, and tho chx’tor could not cure him.
His whole head, face and left ear were in n fear
ful state, and he suitered terribly. I caught the
disease from him, and It spread all over my face
and neck, and even got into my eyes. Nobody
thought we would ever get better. I felt sure
we were disfigured for life. I beard of the Cuti
ei'RA Remedies, and procured a bottle of Cuti
ci:ra Resolvent, a box of Cuticura, and a cake
of CimcritA Soap, and used them constantly
day and night. After using two bottles of Re
solvent, four boxes of Cutjcura and four cakes
of Soap, we are perfect!}' cured without a scar,
My boy's skin is now like satin.
