6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Man Run Over By a Train and Killed at Midville Stone Mountains Mar shal Shoots a Negro Atlanta’s City Council Passes a High License Bill. GEORGIA. Sidney Lewi*, lately of the Sparta Ish fnartite, has joined the editorial staff of the Augusta Chronicle. Alderman J D. George, of Griffin, was fined $l4 50 Monday for slapping the Cap tain of the Salvation Army squad. At Griffin, Sunday, several white men found James Campbell's saloon door open, but no one inside. All went in and had a glorious drunk free of cost. Arrests have been made. George Gibson, of the Pittsburg Ramie Manufacturing Company, has located in Thomasvine for the purpose of testing the Successful growing of this valuable plant. Mr. Gibson is the inventor of Gibson's pat ent machines for decorticating ramie jute, •to. A young acanthus tree nas sprung tip tinder the stej>s of the Sandersville cala boose, and. forcing its way between the step and the building where perhaps there is a decayed place in the plank, stands some 18 inches high immediately in front of the door, a silent but powerful witness of the disuse into which the building has fallen. At Midville Monday K. A. Pledger was run over and killed bv the west-bound freight of the Central railroad. Mr. Pledger was about 55 or rtO years of age, a mechanic by trade. He has no relatives in that sec tion. hut it is said he has a child or children in Athens. His remains were buried in the cemetery at Midville hy the town authori ties. He was under the influence of whisky at the time he was killed. At Stone Mountain Saturday night Mar shal Sanford attempted to arrest a drunken negro named Frank Castleberry. He drew his ax and knife upon the Marshal and re fused to be arrested. The Marshal huving nothing to defend himself with, went Imfore Justice McCurdy and took out. a warrant for him. and deputized two other gentlemen to assist film in arresting Castleberry. The officers armed themselves and proceeded to arrst the scoundrel, when he again made for them with his ax The result, was the negro received a pretty severe wound in his thigh from a pistol ball. Adjt. Gen. Kell received Monday from Mr. Monroe, who is compiling the roster from the War Ds >vtni records in Washington, a comp' *-■ list of the officers and men composing the Seventh and Ninth regiments, Georgia Volunteers, Confederate States infwwy The Seventh composed a part of Anders.brigade. Field's division, Longs! reefs corps, Army Northern Virginia First Colonels we.o L. J Gartrell and W. W. White. The Ninth regiment composed a part of the same corps, and was com manded by Colonels E. R. Goulding, R. A. Turnipseed and Benjamin Beck. There tec* be twenty Colonels in the party that wL accompany Gov. Gordon to the centennial (Vibration at Philadelphia this month. Adjt. ,V. Kell has telegraphed ahead for twenty one horses for the party, te he used on •' da\ of the parade The one item of horses a!ot>.. will cost the party $l5O. Accommodations will be reserved for the Governor and staff by the Centennial Committee. A large crowd will go from Georgia, and after all the State will he most excellently represented At. one tune it. looked as if the Governor and the Colonels would be the sole representatives present. A few flays since Prof. Lockhart, of Americas, went down in one of the wire ?:rass counties below there to tune a piano 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 matter-of-fact old being, fairly took 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 Professor assure 1 her that he was not a traveling saw-igires and had no license to practice surgery or dentistry, but that if she had in the way of light black smith work or horsboeing to he done that she might telephone h.m at her pleasure 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. Gov. Gordon has signed the following acts passed by the General Assembly: A bill to be entitled an act to exempt 125 members of Atlanta Artillery from jury duty. A bill to he entitled an act to prevent officers of, or agents of, lamk or othr corporations, from using or burning any money or other property of said bank, or other corporations, without consent of board of directors, to provide a penalty, etc. A bill to authorize transferees of tax ri. fas to collect the lawful rate of interest on said A. fas from date of transfer, provided the same has Ik>h re- Sorded as prescribed by law.

A bill to amend section 1632 of the Coda. 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. FLORIDA. Work will soon liegin upon the McCor mick University, in West DeFuniak. Several Jersey cows have lieen brought from Tallahassee recently by farmers near DeFuniak. Lumber is now being manufactured for the West DeFuniak Hotel, to he built near Lake Stanley. Cross-ties for the I take Stanley and De- Funiak Springs street railroad are being delivered on the line. Hon. C. T. Sampson, of North Adams, Mass., has made the liberal contribution of *I,OOO toward the library for Deltand University. The gentlemen who so successfully oper ated the fruit evaporator at DeFuniak dur ing the fruit season are now on the Gulf coast evaporating fish. A Nebraska gentleman, who is an authori ty on he,* and t heir culture, has purchased property and will establish a large bee in dustry at once near DeFuniak. 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 walls. It is of (|iicer design and undoubtedly 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 during the week in demolishing the old building on St. George street, near Treas ury. In place of this old landmark the company will erect, a handsome and com modious brick structure for Mr. Misson, to be oomploted in ample time for opening of the winter's business. SummerAeld, heretofore known ns Whit.es ville, is on the Florida, Railway and Navi gation Company's road, twenty-five miles southwest of Ocala, and four miles from Belleview. The residences of the citizens are one-quarter of a mile west, of the depot, while the stores are located on the railway. West of the town there is a bolt of hum mock soil and timber unsurpassed in quality by any found in the county. The case of the assignee of H. Davis vs. Mumby, Stockton & Knight's attachments was heard at lie Land before Justice Jack son last Wednesday. Attornov A. G. Ham lin represented the assignee and Attorney W. \V. Hulst the attaching parties. Aver diet was rendered which quashed the at tachments. Mr. Gooddell, the assignee, has appointed C. Bmrdsley to take an inventory of the stock now in the store. At Jacksonville, Monday night about S o'clock, Jackson Green and Sam Porter, two hardworking colored men, were on their way home when someone fired upon them from ambush with a shotgun, which was evidently loaded with buckshot. One of the pellets entered Green's right, hand on the outside between the knuckle of the little Anger ami the wrist Another plowed its wav across the arm just above the wrist, while several of them perforated the sleeve of his coat. Porter cscajied without injury. Three years ago Mr. Walters bought a home of five acres in the suburiis of Belle view for his family. Ten of his twenty orange trees are bearing liberally. One is twelve years old, and measures tl feet in circumference ut the ground f><4 feet four inches above. It was loaded at the time of the big freeze with 10.000 superior oranges. Near by is a tree of grape fruit, eleven years old, within an inch of the same di mensions, now loaded with about 000 bunches with three or four bunches of eighteen and twenty in each. As the tree and its fruit exceeds anything of the kind ever seen in that part or the country, the, bunches will he in the Kub-Tropical Imposition at Jack sonville. This Nkwh correspondent at Chiplev, Fla., writes as follows under date of Hept. 6: “Quite nil excitement was created in our little city on yesterday, when it was ru mored that Buck Cook, a young man, the son of G. W. Cook, our Mayor, was bit ten by amm I dog. L|x>ii investigation the rumor was found to tie true, and Mr. Cook badly bitten. In the evening, while taring i a stroll through the town with his compun | ions, the dog attacked them, lining Mr. Cook and passing on. After biting Mr i Cook and before he oould tie killed, he hit [ two or three bogs, a cow, and attempted to i bite another young uum. Quito a number THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1887. 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 that city a year ago has more than doubled in value. In some prominent places the value lias increased ten fold. For months people from all over the United States have lieen visiting that city with a desire to in vest. Most of them have done so. Wages are high compared with other portions of the State, nnd every man who wants to work , for an honest dollar can get it. A reporter of th- Press, wit,ha statistical turn of mind, has lioen interviewing the builders this week, and finds that there are about !WK) mechanics and laborers employed on vari ous building enterprises in the city. Itaborers receive from $1 25 to ?! 75 per day. Mechanics receive from $2 25 t. $4, according to ability and capacity for work. Fifteen thousand dollars, or very near that, is paid out every week for wages. j 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 tends all its efforts, a natural sequence of Intelligent, and honest work. 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. - CLOTHING. 1 Falk i Son INVITE INSPECTION OF THEIR STOCK OF CORRECT STYLES OF—- Clothing, Furnishings and Hats WITH THE ASSURANCE THAT SATISFACTION IS GUARANTEED TO AIJ, THEIH CUSTOMERS WINES AM) l.iyUOKs.
