The Perry Rifles have ordered their uni forms from a New York furnishing house. The public schools of Dalton have an at tendance of over 450 students, and the num ber is increasing. There is not an idle carpenter or brick layer at Athens, and many extra men could find employment on new buildings now going up. J. J. and I. F. George are the only two men now living at or near Houston factory, who worked iu the cotton mills (.hero as early as 1856. Some of the old Confederate soldiers in Pulaski declare that they intend to go to the Georgia State Fair to see Jefferson Davis once more if they are compelled to walk. The pond at Houston factory covers about 600 acres of land. Of the 1,100 acres there owned by liennard & Hughes, only about fifty are used for agricultural purposes. At Brunswick the preliminary hearing of W. E. Sutton, charged with killing Bob Mul lory, has resulted in his lining held iu §IO,OOO bail to answer for voluntary manslaughter. An Augusta grocerymnn has just l>een surprised by a creditor walking in and [lay ing a bill that had been standing fifteen years, and another paying one of six years standing. Cotton is coming right along into Dalton. Farmers say the crop will not yield as much as has been estimated, but the area planted is larger, and therefore the number of bales will be about the same. The Richmond Hussars will go to Atlanta sixty strong, with their horses, to march before President and Mrs. Cleveland. The Edgelield Hussars will accompany the Rich monds with thirty men. R. H. Allen & Cos., of Athens, have orders ahead for $35,000 worth of harnoss. This firm is now putting up one of the largest harness manufactories in the State, bringing a large number of workmen. At the annual meeting of tbestockholdors of the Crown cotton mill of Dalton last week, a dividend of 25 per cent, was de clared, payable in new stock. This industry is enjoying a magnificent patronage. At Brunswick the schooner Glynn has been chartered to proceed to Nassau for the first cargo of fruits, shells, etc. She will start some time in October, and return about Nov. 1. Steamers will be put on as soon as the way is clear. G. W. Quinney, who has been bailiff of Jefferson county court for a long time, has been appointed Sheriff by the Ordinary to serve until a Sheriff is elected. He has given bond as required by luw, and entered upon the duties of the office. At Rome Wednesday the dead body of a baby, having the ap[>earanoe of being about one month old, was tound in the old pond at the head of Broad street. The body \#.s -wrapped in an old sack, and it seemed that it had been in the pond for several days. The new flouring mill of Barrett, Denton & Lynn, at Dalton, operating the roller process, has begun work, and is making sixty barrels a day of the finest flour to lie found in any Southern market. The re pairs ami new machinery cost atxmt §15,000. A citizen of Hawkinsville owns a valua ble cow, whose calf, now only eleven months old, has been giving milk for three months. This little heifer, less than a year old, drop ped a fine calf Wednesday and the owner now thinks he could astonish the Jersey cat tle breeders at the State Fair. The descent from a balloon with a para chute will be one of the attractions at the Piedmont Exposition. This is the most miraculous feat ever performed. It has been done in America five times. The aeronaut will jump from the balloon at a height of 5,000 feet, holding a parachute— practically an immense umbrella—which will break the force of hLs fall to tho earth and land him in safety. Thursday a most horrible accident oc curred on Beach Island, on Luther H. Han kinsnn's plantation, near Augusta. The victim, Scott Holliman, uponnearing the whistle at the cotton gin, rushed to the gin to get his position and be in readiness for work. In running he ran too far and his legs were caught in tho gin, which had been started, and he was literally torn to pieces from his waist down. Three ribs of the gin were broken by the accident. About throe feet square of the bottom of Col. Nelson Tift’s fish pond at Abanv, drop ped out, the other day, and the waterran off, leaving only a small hole in which tho carp, with which the pond is stocked, was as thick as sardines in a box. The weight of the wa ter was too great for the crust between it and the subteranean passage through which the waste-water is conducted to tho river, and a small lime-sink was formed through Which the water disappeared. At Douglasville on Saturday Dave Smith, juvenile African some ten years old, was showing a couple of companions a small pis tol. Among other things he could do with it be attempted to show them that he wouhl hold it to his ear aud see how loud it would snap. Dave pulled the trigger, the eoncern exploded and a ball went through Ins outer ear and lodged in the base of the cranium. He wa< brought to Dr. Massay's drug store, and the ball was soon extracted. Wednesday tho gin house, gin nnd press and four or five bales of cotton belonging to Robert Moon, were burned on his place near Himonton’s bridge in Oconee county. The fire originated from friction of the wheels. The loss is not leas than §I,OOO. Mr. Moon, who had rushed into the house, was cut off from escape in the lint room. In trying to get out he ran through the blazing lint, and was badly burned ulx>ut the head and back. A young man living on his place was also badly burned. Mr. Moon’s injuries are painful, but not nec essarily dangerous. A careful examination of the records of the Mayor's Court of Dalton shows that in the year 1885, the last year that whisky wus bold in Dalton, there wore tried 86 casro wherein whlskv was directly the cause of the offense. The following year, 1884, there were 24 cases; in 18x5, 82 cases; in 1886, '£> cases; in 1887. ID cases, and the marshal has been extraordinarily diligent in order to have this number. Most, of them wore cases where ordinarily there would have l>en no arrest, as the parties were only re turning from Chattanooga und were under the influence of whisky, but not “drunk and disorderly." as formerly, when whisky flowed freely at Dalton. There is a groat deal of discussion going mi at Atlanta over tho new oil [fill that is now 1 ending Iwfore the General Assembly. Tho hill is being vigorously fought by those who are interested in the inspection of oils under the present law. Izuys fox are now made out of the inspection, and the fee* go entirely to tlie inspector. The feature of the new oil! is that a considerable revenue will go directly to the Ktate, the JnsjsO’tloil costing rally a per cent, of tile fee* The bill aho separate* the office,., of fertilizer and oil ina|rectors, anil makisv one disqualified to flil the other. The general comment is favorable to the bill, mart of the objections coming from those who are interested Arthur Newman on Tuesday uu>t swore out a warrant charging three cttiwns rf Hawkinsville with using dynamite in Big <-4mk for the pur[joer of natrhtng Ash The Hbariff arrested the dynamiters iso-r sllerti and Uie affair has caused rtoosidarshis norn and some laughable trwtnnonr has le-a* tUrtm. W K from [**l*. ! together with Mr. Clements aud another i gentleman, were resting w ith their wagons | near the creek when they heard an un j natural sound. IVhen they were ques tioned as witnesses one of them said tiiat the noise was like that made by a falling tree, an tfcer thought it was distant thunder | and one sad “it appeared like a fellow fir.ng j a gun under water.” Last Sunday morning, in the presence of a large crowd at Butler's creek, seven miles from Augusta, on the Savannah road, Annie Harris, a young white orphan girl, of 20 summers, was baptized in the creek by Rev Daniel McHorton, of Spirit Creek Colored Baptist church. The baptism of Annie created considerable talk, both among the white and colored people. She wa- thus confirmed a member of the church which she now acknowledges. Annie has been a regular attendant at Rev. McHor ton ’s church for the past year. She is a member of a respectable family in the county, and her strange option lias caused the community and her neighbors to con demn her. She is now, and nos lieen for some time, living with a colored family at the ten mile post on the same road. Solicitor General Toni Eason and the la w yors of Hawkinsville were considerably' aroused last week when they learned that a movement ivus on foot in the Legislature to change L'ooly and Wilcox from the Oconee circuit to the Amerieus circuit, presided over by Judge Allen Fort. It appears that a committee had been appointed by the Legislature to look after the various cir cuits of the State, and so apportion them as to equalize the work of the courts. A subcommittee recommended that Dooly and Wilcox he added to the Amerieus circuit. This move ment was opposed by Solicitor Eason and the lawyers of Hawkiusville, and is op posed by the business men ot this place. Sen ator David M. Roberts says that there need be no uneasiness about the change—that no bill providing for the removal or Dooly and AVilcox from their present circuit will bo passed by the Legislature. Recently, the little town of Nickelville came near being the scene of a tragedy. Iraß, Smith and Dr. J. H. Duggan Jr., of that place, occupy a room together in the rear of W. T. Dupree's store, where Mr Smith is employed in the capacity of sales man. _ In tho course of the night, Dr. Dug gan awoke, when imagining he heard stealthy footstep/s outside, and recalling what Mr. Smith had said, ne quietly arose, and leaving the room, cauti ously examined tha premises. All was serene; finally, he decided to return to bed, advanced to the door and gently pushed it open to re-enter, when ho was met with a startled query from Mr. Smith, who had been suddenly aroused by' the opening door and was not yet fully awake: “Who’s there!” Hut almost before the Doctor could reply “me,” Mr. Smith’s pistol was discharged and a bullet sped by the Doctor’s head at an uncomfortably close distance—only 2 or 3 inches above. The “burglar” instantly retreated, but was fol lowed by four other bullets, which came crashing through the door. The Doctor then explained lustily who he was, and after some parley Mr. Smith allowed him to re turn to his room and everything quieted down Wednesday the Coroner of Fulton county held an inquest over the body of a newly born infant, in the northern part of the county. The evidence was such that the mother of the child, a Miss Giles, was put under guard and will he tried for infanti cide. The woman is about 30 years of age, and is a servant in a family living about nine miles from the citv. Tuesday the ladies in the house heard tho faint cry of a new-born baby. A second, and then a third time they heard the little voice, and then one of them went into the room where Miss Giles was. “Are you sick!” was asked. “Merely a headache,” was the reply. One of the ladies proposed to send for a doctor, but Miss Giles raised the most vehe ment objections. A physician was called in, however, and told th i woman ho did not in tend to leave the place until he found the baby. The woman then confessed and told where the body was. She had hidden it amongst some clothing in the room. There were no marks of violence on the baby’s body. The coroner, after investigating the case, appointed a guard to take charge of the woman. A warrant charging her with infanticide, was .sworn out, and the sheriff will send a regular bailiff to guard her until she can come to the city. At Greenville, S. C., Thursday, an impor tant and sensational case was heard before Judge I tout hi tt, the Judge of Probate, in which two women, one from Habersham county, Georgia, tho other from Greenville, S. C., appeared, and each claimed to be the widow of John Hughes, who was killed last December, by K. H. Jacobs. The legal point was as to which of the two women hud the right to administer on the estate, letters of administration have already been granted to tho Greenville widow and she has brought suit for SIO,OOO dam ages against Jacobs, who has been con victed of killing Hughes, and the Georgia widow has been brought forward by Jacobs to show that the Greenville wife is not the legal wifo, and therefore not ent it led to let ters of administration which would stop the action for damages against him. It appears that Hughes married Mrs.Melvina Stewart, in Habersham county, Georgia, in 1868, lived with her several years, then aban doned her and came to Greenville nnd mar ried again. But the Greenville widow claims that her husband has not been iden tified as the husliand of the Georgia widow, although of the same name and striking resemblance, and further evidence on this point will lie taken another day. Governor Gordon was at his office Thurs day long enough to give his consideration to various matters. Among other things at tended to, lie approved the following acts of the General Assembly An act to incorpo rate the Albany savings bank; an act to prescribe the time for cutting turpentine boxes, and fixing the penalty for violation of the same; a resolution for the relief of the tax collector of Talt>ot county; an act to amend an act to incorporate the Griffin, LaGrango and Western rail roud, so as to change uml confirm change of name already made’ pursuant to section 689 of the C ode of the State, to the Birmingham and Atlanta Air-line Railroad, Banking mid Navi gation company, to provide for locating, operating and equipping branch lines of the same from Greenville to Savannah, from Dublin to Amerieus. to increase its capital stock, to confer upon it all [lowers and privi leges usually granted to railroad, hanking and navigation companies, and for other pur[loses; an act to incorporate the Augusta Steamlx >at Company; an act to require the registration of voters in Newton comity; an act. to Incorporate tho Atlantic, Atlanta ami Groat.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 24, 1887. Charles Lurck. a young American, died ; near Yhor City Thursday. Through the enterprise of some sensationalists it was ro i ported a case of yellow fever. There is | nothing about the case to warrant such a I statement. Lurck had not been out of the county for six months. The 8 year-okl daughter of W. Baker, ! who lives two miles south of Glendale, was burned to death Wednesday. Hhe attempt ed to kindle a fire with the aid of a coal oil [ can which exploded and set fire to three ! children, burning two severely and one ! fatally. The child lived but two hours after j the accident. Henry Bush, a young oigarmaker and | son-in-law of William Bethel, chairman of j the Board of Aldermen, was called to his door at Key West. Monday night by some unknown party who shot at him. For tunately the bullet missed its aim. As soon as Bush could draw his revolver, he returned the fire, but by that time the scoundrel was out of range. This is the third or fourth attempt within tho last six weeks against I different parties. , The St. Augustine Battery, at a special meeting Wednesday night, decided to ac cept tiie invitation to form a part of the Florida battalion which will escort Gov. Berry to Atlanta on Oct. 18, and which is to take [sirt in the military reception to be given the President and Mrs. Cleveland on the 10th. A large number of people will probably accompany the battery in order to pay thoir respects to tho Chief Mag istrate and his lady. The T. and T. railroad has located its pas senger depot in the Long Grove addition to Tallahassee on tho extension of Monroe street. The engineer corps has been several days trying to find the least expensive line from where tiie depot of the T. and T. railroad will l>o located at the north end of Monroe street to the depot of the Florida Railway and Navigation. Preliminary lines were run on each side of the city anil both were found to require very heavy grading. The west side has been selected as the best. News wus brought to Jacksonville Thurs day morning of the burning of A. L. Dolby’s elegant residence at Woodlawn, which is situated on Cedar creek, about eight miles from Jacksonville. The house was consid ered one of the finest residences in the coun try, and was furnishod with oriental mag nificence. The fire occurred while both Mr. and Mrs. Dolby were absent, there l(eiug nobody in the house at tho tiuio. It is be lieved the fire was of incendiary origin. The loss is heavy on the owner, as the property was valued at SIO,OOO, and carried very little insurance. Mr. Dolby is the owner of tho steamer Kate Spencer. A strange accident happened on Division street, Key West, atPhilbrick’s new houses, which occasioned considerable comment and started a rumor of some foul murder. Tuesday morning a big pool of blood was discovered near the pickets; the fence was ter ribly bespattered, with a trail of blood lead ing away from it. A big crowd gathered, all satisfied that a horrible murder had been committed. An investigation showed that some big dog in attempting to jump the fence had slipped and impaled himself upon the pickets. His heartrending cries awoke the neighborhood. He loosed himself, but will certainly die. His body could not be found. Married, in Tampa, on Tuesday night, Sept. 20, Rev. A. F. Randall officiating, Air. Ham. Paine, of Tarpon Springs, and Miss Leora Stevens, of Boston. Mass. There is nothing surprising about this an nouncement in itself, hut when it is taken into consideration that the contracting par ties had never met each other before that night, the matter assumes a more interest ing phase. It seems that they have been corresponding for quite a while aud by let ter agreed to link their lives together “for lietter, for worse.” Accordingly they mot at the depot in Tampa on the night named and within an hour the knot was tied. They took a carriage for Tarpon Springs, their future home, Wednesday morning The heavy northeast winds that have pre vailed for the past week have caused higher tides than have been known for many months. Some of the lowest docks along tho river front have been nearly overflowed by the water. Along the whole of tho Florida coasts the reports are the same, high tides. At Pablo Beach, Bnrnside and Alayport especially was it noticeable. At ordinary high tide at Pablo the surf does not reach within fifteen feet of the pavilion, hut, (luring the storms of this week, it lias not only reached the pavilion, but has broken over the third aud fourth steps. Mayport sends a similar report. The tide reached many of the homed and, in some in stances, the foundations were in part washed away. One thing noticeable, caused by these heavy tides, is the presence of Gulf weed, or sargassum, in the river. It was found in large quantities at a point near Chasevi! le which is eighteen mile-, from the mouth of the river. Considerable has been found in the St. Johns opposite Jacksonville, a id from a gentleman who lives ten miles further up the river, or thirty-five miles from the bar, it is learned that he has on several occasions found it floatiug near his place The Gulf weed is seldom seen out of its native waters and the presence of it is no doubt duo to the heavy winds which have prevailed. It is the opinion of one gentleman, who was asked in regard to the matter, that patches of it would probably lie found floatiug as far up the river as Palatka, and that it would bo seen for some weeks to come. Wednesday afternoon Sanitary Inspector D. H. Campbell, of Jacksonville, was ap proached by n Indy who told him that t here was a child at 115 North street that had lieon most cruelly beaten by its mother. Mr Campbell reported the matter at once to Chief Inspector F. T. Hernandez. They went together to the house designated and found a negro woman named Mahnila Brown living there. Upon inquiry she stated that the child, a girl of 14 years of age, was here, that she had whipped her while in a passion, that the whipping had been given' some days since, and that, the girl was attending to her household duties as usual. Upon the inspectors demand ing to see the child, the mother hesi tated and made many excuses, but finally consented to get a light and allow them to see her. Upon opening the door a most horrible stench, as of decaying meat, greeted the officers, and upon a box, sitting down and gazing with an idiotic expression into vacancy sat the victim of a most inhuman mother’s auger. The stench arising from the festering body of the child was such as to compel the officers to keep their nostrils covered while in the noisome room. Upon questioning the child (who apparently was in deadly fear of its mother) as to its being whipped, she replied: “Yes,' but that it did not h urt her now. Upon being asked to stand up nnd walk, she tried, but could not lift her poor swollen fool and limbs to do so. The insjHvtors departed and re[>orted the frets trt Acting Health Officer John H. Liv ingston, M. D The doctor, with inspector Hernandez, visited the house Thursday morning, and upon examination the girl was found to hare been terrible beaten ami abused. Her back nnd shoulders from the neck down were one huge festering sore, not a particle of skin remaining except a very little on the right shoulder, the lower limbs and feet very much swollen. The doctor prescribed for the unfortunate child and ordered tho Inspector to at once report the facts to tho M a yor. Postal Changes.

Growth of the British Empire. /•'null the Levant lieratd. The Melbourne Argvs with its jubilee number presents to its readers a map of the world on Mercator’s projection showing the British possessions wherever they exist, with statistical tables exhibiting the nrogresa made .during the reign of Queen Victoria. The compiler of these statistics lias, divided the British Empire into the following groups: The United Kingdom, the Do minion of Canada, British West Africa, South Africa, the Indian Empire, and Aus tralasia, giving for each group tbeexteutof territory, the population! and the value of its trade ut the p nods of the (Juecn’s ac cession, and the jinrlee year. As may lie expected the trad* returns from India nnd Australasia show u very- rabid increase, that of India tiding more than five times greater than it was in 1851, and during the same period the trade of Australasia has in creased twelvefold. The six di visions taken together give the following comparative results for the entire British Empire: Spuare A files. Area in 1887.,,..; M&905 Area in 1887 •* '6,9rts!,9il Population in 18,77 126,106,000 Population in 1887 255,364,000 Trade inisgr..... £200,0011.000 Trade in tjS&Q; Hiiaimiff o tho area of th* empire ; bus in creased fourfold, so that, while the -.queen received 2,000,000 of square miles from her ancestors, she will transmit 8,000,600 to her successor. The population of the empire has doubled, and its trade increased flvefiold. Without wishing to boast or draw invidi ous comparisons,it may safely he stated that, althougu the prosperity reached in the Eliz abethan and Georgian eras was remarkable, that of the Victorina era throws botli con siderably into the shade, while comparative history in the present day contains nothing superior to the present position of Great Britain as head of its empire processions. Not so Rustic as He Looked. From the Dallas News. He was decidedly rustic in appearance and would pass anywhere for a cowboy. He was taking a dry sfnoke as he boarded the train at Abilene. He took a seat near some Dallas men and drew from his pocket a box of safety matches. He took one of the matches from the box, crossed his legs and swiped the match across his thigh three or four times, but failing to ignite it threw it down and took another, which he put through the same ordeal, with precisely the same result. This time he uttered a cuss word and selected a fresh match, the end of which lie carefully examined before raking it on his breeches. This match also failed to strike fire, and the man swore some and broke a half dozen matches in quick succes sion. One of tho Dallas men, who had been watching him, said: “My friend, you have to strike those matches on the box.” “Who is doing this, anyhow?” and he went on breaking matches faster than ever. Nobody interrupted him until he had wasted the whole box of matches without getting a light. He then ran his hand in his pocket and fished out another box of the same brand and commenced on it. The same Dallasite again spoke to him of the folly of wasting matches iu that style, and told him that lie might try until tiie crack of doom and he never could strike a match of that make unless he raked it across the box. * Til bet you §lO 1 can?” said the unsuc cessful match-striker. “I’ll take the bet," replied the Dallas man. The money was put up, the young man went to the glass and rubbed the match on it, and it ignited. The green young man lighted his cigar, took in the money, smiled a dry, sardonic, Mephistophelean grin and said something about the ruinous conse quences of “betting on another fellow's trick.” MEDICAL.
