A few flays since Prof. Lockhart, of

or an old lady resident. After the work
was over with and th* Professor had donned
his kid gloves and was in the act of wrap
ping up his kit of tools, the old lady, a very

his breath away by telling him that "her
darter Sarah had an ingrowing toe nail
that needed fixing and several teeth to tie
pulled, and t>h j ’lowed he could do it then,
as he had his tools all there handy.” The

Sunday night a very disorderly scene oc
curred shortly* after a passenger train left
one of the small stations near Macon. A
colored camp meeting had iieen held t here
during the day, and as the train passed it
was boarded by a large gang of negroes who
were hound for Fort Valley and stations
below. Several dozen of these forced their
way into the first-class coach and
took seats among the white people,
among whom were several Indies. The
whites made no resistance to this intrusion
until one of the negroes, a strapping black,
took his seat, beside a young lady, upon
which he was seized hy tlie back of the
neck by a gentleman who sat just behind
and was promptly “tired.” At this prompt
ana very prorier action a number of black
and tan females sent vip a warwhoop, amt
for a while it seemed that their loud mouth
ing and incendiary talk would cause a seri
ous difficulty . but no attention was paid to
it by the gentleman, and shortly after
ward their place was reached, and they left
the train.
The City Council of Atlanta held a regu
lar meeting Monday afternoon. The Coun
cil considered a hill to amend the charter of
the city of Atlanta so as to provide that in
eve.nt the city should vote against prohibi
tion at the election in November, and the
sale of liquor should te again permitted,
the sale should ho confined to a small area
located in the centre of the city, and Axing
the license at #2,000 When the hill was
read it became evV ••t from the action
of the an ties, wh*. are members of the
Council, that th bill would have some
opposition on two points, one lieing
that, they were opposed to any change until
after the election, and the other on account
of the size of the lioeuse. Alderman Gram
lin moved to amend by making the limits
for the sale one-half mile in every direction
along the business streets from the union
depot, which is regaivled as Atlanta’s most
central point; and, in addition, to make the
license for selling liquor not less than $1,200
nor more than $2,600. The amendment as
to the limit additionally amended hy
Councilman Coliiet, making the license
$1,600, was adopted hy a strict party vote.
The bill was then adopted and referred to
the legislative committee for transmission
to the Legislature.

At Griffin the Hudson Collier horee case
a* beard Katui-day before Justice Collins,
who reserved his decision until Mouday
rba complainant Is W fl Hudson, of
frrlffin. and defendant is II H, Collier,
•kurf WCUMwr at the Atlanta and Hsu kins
villa railroad. Mr. Hudson testified that he
lost the horse in April, 1879. He had had
her about eighteen months and she was 5
years old when he lost. her. She is now
about 15 or lfi years old and worth SIOO.
T. W. Morley, J'. H. Keith, R. S. Connell
and Sam Clements gave if. as their belief
that the Collier mare was the someone.
Mr. Collier testified that the mare was his
S-opertv. and that, he had bought her from
. Stockdetl, of Atlanta, in July, 1880. Mr.
Stockdell testified that he had known the
horse since 1883, and had bought her from
Zack Taylor. No one ever claimed
her while in his possession. Concerning the
case the Griffin Sun said in it* Sunday issue:
“There is one jieculiar feature connected
with the ease. The morning Mr. Hudson
!
sued out the possessory warrant for the
horse, Sheriff Connell after seizing her and
while on his way to the stable, determined
to see if the horse retained any recollection
of her former quarters. After crossing the
railroad the horse was given the rein Hnd
she promptly turned towards Hudson’s
stable. She passed both Powell's and
Griggs' stables and entered that of Hudson’s
and went direct to her stall, No. 0, her
former stand. It must he borne in mind
that the horse had previously put up at
Powell’s for a week and Griggs’ only that,
day.” Monday Justice Collins rendered his
decision in favor of the plaintiff, but Col
lier, it is understood, will have the casecer-
tioraried [n the meantime Mr. Hudson
will have charge of the horse.
Monroe Johnson, a negro whom Capt.
Grim, of Atlanta, arrested Sunday, with a
live chicken in a frying pan, proves to lie
Hn African with an interesting criminal
history, the last chapter of which has not
yet been written. Johnson began his career
in South Carolina, where he kdled a negro
limn, whose holy he threw into a river.
The liody drifted away, and so did Johnson,
and when the Isxlv was found Johnson was
out of reach of the law. After leaving
Carolina the negro went to Alabama ami
began working on the Goorlwater extension
of the Georgia Pacific. Johnson’s mean dis
position cropped out immediately after he
went to work, and he soon made so much
trouble that he was discharged, together
with another negro who adhered to him in
the trouble. Johnson’s discharge made him
very angry with Boyd Fleming, the boss,
and as he left the camp he swore that he
would balance accounts wit h the contractor.
One night last, week Johnson and the negro
who was discharged with him hired a horse
and buggy and started out in the country.
Tney drove, so the story goes, to Mr. Flem
ing\> home. The gentleman lived with a
married sister named Foster, and to that
house they drove. lVlien near the house the
team was stopped and Johnson with an old
shotgun tightly grasped in his hand got out,,
while hri companion held the horse. March
ing boldlv up to the front door John
son knocked loudly. Sirs. Foster arose
and opened the door, and as it went open
a shotgun was thrust in. The next second
there was a loud report and the lady
dropped to the floor riddled with shut,.
The wounds were fatal and death quickly
ensued The negro hurried off almost be
fore ihe sound had died away. The killing
created the wildest excitement, and the
pursuit was organized, hut nothing could be
heard of the two negroes until Saturday
when Mr. Frank Hillman, conductor of the
Georgia Pacific, arrested a negro whom he
l>elievol to Johnson's associate and whom
he took to Birmingham, where he was
jailed. Johnson, it appears, came direct to
Atlanta where he found friends with whom
he was hiding when he went, out on a
chicken excursion which resulted in his ar
rest. The Alabama officials have been
notified of Johnson’s arrest, and he will tie
held until tliey come and identify him.

At. St. Augustine a few days since, A. M.
I<opez. while at work tearing down Mis
souri building, on St. George street, found
an old fashioned pistol imbedded in the

ot great age.
Frank Morgan, traveling agent for the
Bradley Fertilizer Company, was quite
seriously injured in Deltand last Thursday,
by a fall from a horse. The horse stumbled
and threw him over his head and then fell
over on him. The doctor thinks his injuries
will not prove fatal, and that he will soon
recover.
The St. Augustine improvement Com
pany has had a force of men engaged

At Jacksonville, Monday night about S
o'clock, Jackson Green and Sam Porter, two

while several of them perforated the sleeve
of his coat. Porter cscajied without injury.

of dogs and cows were bitten by the dog
just before Mr. Cook was bitten. Drs. Far
rier, Wilson and Bellamy were at once
called in, and it is to he hoped that they suc
ceeded in extricating the virus. After they
did all they could a madstone was applied.”
H. A. Wilson, of the Bt. Augustine Land
Company, left, for New Jersey and New
York on Thursday, where he will deliver a
course of lectures on the advantages of
Florida, and especially St. Augustine. It is
said that every plot or lot of land sold in

HEBREWS AND CHRISTIANS.
Some Broad Views of Broad-Minded
Men.
From the Atlanta, Christian Index. *
The following eloquent tribute to Chris
tianity, by a Jew, is taken from a speech of
Hon. Louis Arnheim, a member of the pres
ent legislature of Georgia. Pending the
bill for establishing a reformatory prison,
Mr. Arnheim said:
“I agree most heartily with Dr. Felton,
that hard labor is reformatory. I heartily
indorse his sentiments, though a Jew, that
the Christian religion is a grand corrective.
Let me say that, in the fight of history, I
bow in reverence to that grand religion,
though not one of its confessors; the religion
that has turned barbarism into civilization
wherever it went, nnd has softened the
hearts of men and made them better, wiser
and more charitable, tlie religion which held
out and holds out to-day to suffering and
toiling humanity the grand assurance of
peace on earth and goa-will to all men, the
hope of everlasting life, teaching the sub
lime doctrine of the immortality of the
soul. Itat us remember, however, that one
of the corner stones upon which it rests is
the Decalogue delivered to mv ancestors
when Mount Horeb shook, and the glory of
the Lord illuminated its cloud-capped peak.
Then the divine fia* issued forth: ±hou
shalt not steal. Thou shalt not murder.
Thou shat not bear false witness against thy
neighbor.’ Through the long vista of time
these commandments ring into our ears
to-day. Reward for the obedient and pun
ishment for the evil-doer go hand in hand,
and when we seek to protect society against
the evil-doer, if we punish him as he de
serves to be punished; if w-e refuse to bur
den society, the virtuous, honest and toiling
citizen unnecessarily for the support, of the
criminal; if we compel him to earn his
bread in the sweat of his brow; if we do
not needlessly make the way of the trans
gressor hard, 1 feel that our conscience
will approve pur action and divinity will
sanction it.”
We do not know why it was, but so it was
that an uniiHiial moisture came about, our
eyes ns we read this touching tribute of the
son of Abraham to the religion of the Lord
Jesus. We acknowledge with gratitude our
indebtedness to the seed of Abraham. All
the valuable religious knowledge in the
world is derived from them. They only of
all who have lived since the flood have been
inspired. Whom God has so highly honored
we also honor. Every word of the Bible
was written by Jews. Al! the earliest Chris
tians were Jews. Our blessed Lord himsef
was a Jew. His kinsmen, according to the
flesh, are unworthy of him, it is true, but i-o
are we unworthy of him, certainly as much
so as they. We have the kindest feelings
for them. We are sorry that they cannot
see a saviour in our Lord Jesus Christ. But
it gives us pleasure to testify that they are
good citizens; and they and we alike have
cause to be proud of our countryman, the
Hon. Louis Arnheim.
The Savannah News.
From the Sanford i Fla.) Journal.
Saturday’s number of the Savannah
News was one of the most complete issues
we have seen even of that great and good
pajier. It was the annual trade edition of
the News, and full of information about
the city of Savannah, its trade and shipping,
and all such topics as go to make up a com.
plete trade paper. The News is always at
the head of tlie profession, and success at

Consumption, Wasting Diseases,
And general debility. Doctors disagree as to
the relative value of Cod Liver Oil and Hy
pe >phosi>hites; the one supplying strength
and flesh, the other giving nerve power, and
acting as a tonic to the digestive and entire
system. But in Scott’s Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil with Hypophosphites the two are
combined, nnd the effect is wonderful.
Thousands who have derived no permanent,
benefit from other preparations have
been cured by this. Scott’s Einul
sion is perfectly palatable and is easily di
geeted oy those who cannot tolerate plain
Cod Liver Oil.
