with an ax, one on the head and the other
on the skull, before the fight could be
stopped. Byrd was shot through and
through, the ball, a sixty-eight calibre, en
tering just below the heart and being ex
tracted by Dr. Rawlings on the right side of
the spine. He was resting easy at last ae
counts and may recover, but hie is danger

to blame.
The subject of bridging the Oconee river
at Dublin is engrossing the attention of the
citizens at present. A bridge is an abso
lute necessity, not only from the fact that
the AVrightsvtlle and Tennille railroad
depot is on the eastern side of the river, but
also from the fact that the population is in
creasing very rapidly, so much so that the
last grand jury recommended a double
ferrv at this point. The parties who built
the former bridge are seeking to organize a
company and obtain a charter to erect
another, while others prefer a free to a toll
bridge. Several schemes are on foot for
the purpose of raising sufficient funds for
that purpose, one in much favor being for
the county to issue twenty bonds of * 1,000
each, payable in twenty years, which is the
amount the ferry is costing the county each
year, and for the town to come in and pay
all interest on the bonds.
G. W. Oliver, depot agent at Shellman,
blew* bis brains nut with a revolver Thurs
day. He entered the telegraph office, which
is in the depot building, and, after carefully
looking the dcx>r and closing the windows,
coolly informed the lady operator that he
was going to kill himself and that she, too,
must die with him, at the same time flour
ishing a revolver. The lady was, of course
terrified at this wholly unexpected
procedure and screamed for help, but no
one coming to her assistance, she raised the
window-and jumped out, thus making her
escape before the would-be murderer could
execute his threat. Being left alone, Mr.
Oliver deliberately shot himself, dying in a
few minutes thereafter. Mr. Oliver was
the father of the young Oliver who was en
gaged in the serious cutting affray at that
place a short while since, in which he was
assaulted by a gang of negroes and badly
hurt.
A peculiarcase was tried in Greene county
in which Amanda Williams charged Jim
Chester with attempted rape. The princi
pal Interest attaching to the case is due to
the fact that was developed that
the woman was of lewd character, having
had six children by three different men, the
impression l>eiiig prevalent that a lewd
woman cannot sue for rape. All the wit
nesses wore negroes, the woman being the
principal one, she testifying as to the as
sault, stat ing that a knife was used about
her throat in a struggle that took place.
(She gave the alarm ami neighbors came up
who corroborated the statement. That
there was considerable interest attaching to
the case. Is evidenced by the fact that the
jury hung all night and did not render a
verdict until after breakfast yesterday
morning. The verdict was guilty.' The as
sault took place some fourteen miles from
Greensboro, near White Plains.
_ A few nights ago, while Olin Pace, of
Terrell county, was driving along the pub
lic road leading to the Primitive Baptist
church, a white, shadowy object appeared
near him in the road having the shape of a
woman, and (Luting hither and thither as
if Ixime on invisible spirit wings. It gave
forth no sound whatever, but moved its
long white arms in the air as if in great dis
tress. Mr. Pace is not a man easily fright
ened, and is not given to cnimericnl
illusions, and though almost para
lyzed with astonishment, he de
cided to investigate the matter fully. He
dismounted from his buggy and advanced
toward the apparition, "which retreated
as he advanced. Finally reaching it, he
attempted to lav his hand on it, but at once
the ghost (for ghost it surely was) vanished.
After waiting awhile for the spook's return
in vain, the gentleman drove away, his
mind full to the brim with uncanny
thoughts, and his flesh almost creeping from
his bones. The ghost has been seen several
times since, always in the same place and
in the same weird shape. (Several other
parties, among them Mr. Burge's wife and
'laughter, i-eport having seen this unearthly
visitant, and the entire neighborhood is
aroused.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1887.
D. Williams, upon the charge of assault to
murder Miss Emma Puckett, a white woman
living within one mile of the town. The
evidence showed that on Friday night last,
the woman was sitting near ail open window
in a rocking chair talking to her mother,
and a man named Hughes. Between 8 and
9 o’clock, a person outside threw a heavy
iron skillet through the window, striking
the chair and tlie woman’s shoulder
at the same time, breaking the
chair post, knocking her to the
floor, inflicting a severe and painful wound
upon the shoulder blade. Half a brick
quickly followed the skillet, missing the
woman and knoexing a hole through a table
standing near. The assailant then fled past
the window to the railroad. The woman
claimed to identify the prisoner by a glimpse
she had of his faee. As he passed the win
dow the light reflected through it. She
swore positively the man was a negro, but
she was not able to swear positively the
prisoner was the man. The fact also, that
the man was long in the employ of a former
paramour of ber’s, whose interest she be
lieved was to put her under the sod, was to
her proof of his identity. The prisoner
established by witnesses' that he was at
Cairo, seven miles from the scene of the
attack, at the time. The court bound him
over to the Superior Court. He was asked
to give $l5O bond. He did so.
At the last session of the present Legisla
ture a bill was introduced for the relief of
Maj. Sam Morgan, one of the bondsmen of
the Bank of Rome. When the bank failed
it owed the State of Georgia about $54,000,
the hank being one of the State depositories.
About SII,OOO was collected out of the as
sets of the bank, and suit brought against
the bondsmen for the remainder of the
money. For various reasons all of the
other bondsmen of the bank and Maj. Mor
gan were caught for the full amount of
what was needed to square up the bank's
account with the State A judgment was
rendered against Maj. Morgan, and execu
tion issued, upon which was collected the
balance due, with 7 per cent, in
terest and $3,000 attorney’s fees for
C’apt. Henry Jackson, who was engaged
bv the Governor to represent the State.
Maj. Morgan now wants to be relieved of
paying the sum over and above the amount
for which he stood security. He does not
think that he should be made to pay either
the interest or the $3,000 attorney’s fees
paid for collecting the money. His friends
cannot see whv Capt. Jackson should have
l>een employed in tne case when the State
has an Attorney General employed to rep
resent her in all legal matters. The Finance
Committee lias concluded to make an ad
verse report on the measure, and require
Maj. Morgan to foot the bill. It ts more
than probable that when the report of the
committee comes up in the House for adop
tion the friends of Maj. Morgan will make a
strong fight in his behalf, on the ground
that he has been unjustly treated in the
matter.

found in the St. John’s river, between Jack

was badly swollen and on the left side of

wheel of some passing steamer, while one of
the ears had been eaten off by the crabs.
The man was plainly dressed in a woolen
shirt,over which wnsa vest of dark material

would dress preparatory to going to worit.

swamp recently he noticed the cleats nailed
up on the side of tall trees some years ago by
Judge White and his party of explorers, in
their efforts to discover the origin of .the
smoke, and decided to follow up the route
slartert by them and see what it would lead
to. After penetrating the jungle about a
mile further in from where Judge White
was deserted by his part;- and forced to
abandon the enterprise, Mr. Shuler says
that he came upon a large mound of rent
and shattered rocks covering an area
of about a half-acre, and lying
around as though thrown there
by some powerful force from
underneath. The crevices between the rock
were smoked black and the under sides of
the rocks were covered with soot, like the
inside of a smoked lamp chimney. Evi
dences of a big fire that had blazed up from
underneath was to lie seen all around, but
there was then no fire, heat nor smoke to be
seen. He thinks the volcano was simply the
burning of a natural oil well, which has
been consumed and had gone out.
THE INDIANS ARE COMING.
They Are to be Placed In Camp at the
Exposition.
Meeting Capt. Bill Kendrick on the street
at Jacksonville, Thursday morning, the fol
lowing conversation took place between
him and a representative of the Times-
Unioit:
“Captain, I hear that they are going to
have a camp of Seminole Indians at the
Sub-Tropical Exposition and that you are
to assist in looking after them; is that a
fact?”
“Yes, sir. Capt. F. O. Hendry, of Fort
Meyer and myself intend haying a good
many of the wild men, women and children
fresh from the Everglades which, I think,
will be a great attraction to the big show.” •
“Are those Indians still very wild I"
“No, they are not very wild, though they
will not allow themselves to be civilized.”
“What are their habits of living?”
“Well, they live in wigwams or tenps
thatched with palmetto. What little work is
done in the way of cultivating potatoes, etc.,
is done by the squaws; the bucks hunt, and
their principal occupation is raising hogs.
They live on game and fish and what nature
provides for them iu the country. Thoy
nave no bedding whatever, except skins,
which are usually placed on platforms, but
the little ones generally fall down in the
yards anywhere and sleep. The bucks
are very athletic. None can be found in
the United (states or elsewhere on earth
more so. They dress just as they did, I sup
pose, hundreds Of years ago, the bucks with
their leggibs, flap and buckskin hunting
shirt; they wear no hats, but a kind of tur
ban from some re i material. The squaws
wear skirls fron the waist down only, and
when they go into trading points they cover
their bodies with all kinds of trinkets, beads,
etc., and the children usually go naked, ex
cept when at the trading points. ”
“About howinany Indians are there down
there ?”
“Well, all told, about 600, as near as I can
get at it, divided into five different tribes —
one at Old Fort Shackleford, on the Ever
glades; one on the Kissimmee, in Polk
county; one on the Alpatioka, and two
parties known ns the Miami Indian..
“They are ruled by a king whose name is
Little Tiger Tail, a son of old Tiger Tail,
who was the brother of and successor to the
notorious Billy Bow Legs. Three different
tribes each have a different chief, all of
whom were ma ie so after killing the requi
site number of U-ars, namely twenty-one
eaeh, which is till that is required. Thy
meet annually in June at, what is known as
their green corn dance. ’Tis then and there
that the criminals are tried, the king sitting
as judge, with the chiefs as jurors. The
king and chiefs also form themselves into a
kind of Legislature, and enact laws for the
ensuing year. After the adjournment of
the court and legislature they make their
new tire and have a grand jubilee in the
way of a big dance, using their war paint
in groat profusion.’’
“What do you propose to do with them
here, and how many will jou bring?”
“Well, as many as can possibly be in
duced to come, jierhaps twenty or twenty
five. I intend to keep them in wigwams
similar to those in which they reside, and
have them carry out their frontier customs
and habits in tlie way of living, and to per
form at stated intervals all their war and
green corn dances, etc. In other words they
will live and act exactly the same as they
do at their native homes.”
“How is it that you know so much about
these Indians.”
“I was raised with them. In my earliest
recollections the nearest and only neighbors
we had for awhile were the Seminole In
dians. The great man Osceola taught me
woodcraft.. Afterwards I fought them ten
years of my life—four years as a private
soldier and six years as captain of a com
pany. I an> perfectly familiar with all their
habits and at one time spoke their language
as well as they did, but. as it is an unwrit
ten language, I have forgotten the most of

From the Americus (Qa.) Recorder.
The following letter from Superintendent
Cole will explain why the work of nutting
in a telephone exchange bus been so long
delayed. We trust that the question of
rates will be amicably adjusted, and that
Amerieus will.in a short while lie permitted
to enjoy this great eon vonience.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 13.
Harrold , Johnson ct Cos., and others,
. 1 merievs, Go.;
Gentlemen When Mr. Gentry canvass
ed Amerieus for subscribers to a telephone
exchange we acted in [lerfect good faith.
My estimate was put in for construction
and approved, and I have already ordered
poles for the exchange, but within the last
few days there has been a bill put in the
Legislature to have an act passed limiting
the rental which a telephone company can
charge to (3 50 a month, S3O a year. We
hope to find enough sensible business men
among our legislators to defoat this hill, hut
until it is defeated we shall be obliged to
jiost|>oiie the building of the Amerieus Ex
change. We are very sorry to be oblige^to
do this, but as you will readily see we can
not afford lo build an exchange U|nm a
$3 50 a month rate. I will have everything
in readiness to build this exchange as soon
as we are assured that the State government
will not force our rates below a paying
basis. If this bill passes we shall close every
exchange in the State of Georgia.
Yours very truly,
W. J. Cole, Sup’t.
“A Power of Okra.”
from the Dolton (tr'o.) Citizen.
An unsophisticated denizen from that
quiet nnrl peaceful county of Fannin, where
the blessings and conveniences of more a-.1-vanced
vanced civilisation art- unknown, was tak
ing in tin- sights of the city the other day,
mid while standing uixm a busy thorough
fare ga/.iii" with varannt admiration at the
wonders of the North Georgia metropolis,
bis attention was attracted ny a huge hunch
of bananas pendent before a fruit stall.
After examining the fruit with puzzled
curiosity, ho turned to an acquaintance,
and with the ui.mo.st simplicity, exclaimed:
"Wall, by jings, that's a power of okra on
that stalk!"
