6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Train Runs Into a Hand Car on the Southwestern Road But Escapes Be ing Wrecked - An Excavation Which Probably Led to the Death of Dr Gray, of Atlanta. UKORGIA. On account of being unable to get coke the Cedartown furnace has shut down. The Marshal’s sales advertised in the At lanta Constitution cover over thirteen and a half columns. News of the death of President Graflin.of the Georgia Chemical Works, was received in Augusta Sunday. John W. Kent, living five miles east of, Buchanan, has made 800 gallons of syrup, and will make over 800 more this season. Waynesboro is soon to have a bank. The incorporators are Messrs. T. M. Berrien, Dr. Llovn Belt, and legislative Representative C. T. Belt, At Lexington Saturday a small child of B. B. Williams was poisoned by swallowing kerosene oil. Dr. Carter w as immediately suriimnnei and the child has recovered. At Winterville Friday Capt. Barnett lost his stable by fire. It caught from an engine near by where he was ginning cotton. He lost some forage in the stable. Some stock rear the fire were slightly injured, but nothing else was lost. Tue loss is $BOO with no insurance. The announcement that Mr. Randall has accepted an invitation to visit the Piedmont Fair, and is billed for an address on the opening day. has given rise to quite a pnpu lar suggestion among the friends and ad mirers of Mr. Carlisle that he be invited to attend the State Fair and deliver an ad dress. The technological commissioners at At lanta received four bids for the erection of a machine shop. They were opened Sat.ur day by a committee or the board, and all of them were so unsatisfactory that they were rejected. They were all unreasonably high, and the matter will be referred back to the commission, which meets next Thursday. Alfred Smith, the colored man who killed Joe Allen at Doboy, in August last, is a free man again, he having secured bail. W. H. Wallace, of Savannah, is his bondsman and the bond is for $4,000. Smith has employed Rufus E, Lester and P. W. Meldrim, of Sa vannah, to defend him at the next term of Mclntosh Superior Court, which convenes on Nov. 28. Some of the wealthy members of Dr. Hawthorne’s church, at Atlanta, are in favor of increasing his salary $l,OOO a year to show their appreciation of him and to show that their confidence in him was not weakened by the “Anxious Inquirer ’ epi sode. One of t he richest members said the other day: “If the church can’t pay it I ran.” Dr. Hawthorne’s income is about $5,000 a year. About three miles from Columbus, on the Southwestern railroad, Saturday afternoon, e heavy wood train going into that city ran into a pole car. The car w as crushed like an egg shell, but fortunately the train was not wrecked. Engineer McDonald, who ■was running the train, says he did not see the car until within about forty yards of it, and did not. have time to check his engine. J. R. Dillard, the section boss, had (-barge of the pole car. It is said that a similar acci dent occurred near the same place a short time ago. Several bai-s in the pilot of the engine were broken by the collision. At Albany Saturday, a negro teamster handled his six mules with such easy grave that the attention of many was directed to it. He threaded his way through a narrow serpentine passage way between innuiner able vehicles in a most matchless manner, end drove in an easy tret to the water basin for stock. The question naturally suggested itself to the lookers-on, how he was to water his six mules. They did not have long to wait to ascertain. He drove up just near enough for the first pair to drink, then, pulling them aside, he easily put the others, in their turn, in reach of the water, and without, alighting from his saddle mule. It was a ilever piece of driving. On Saturday last, a party of several men and a young girl drove up in front of the court house at Franklin. They were armed with guns and pistols, and naturally created the idea that something was up. A marriage license was requested for Dan Adams and Minnie Buckelew, but doubting the girl’s age,they were refused, And the party turned their way toward Carrollton, where they hail better success. It will Is* remembered that Adams shot Buckelew some weeks ago, the cause of which was the persistent at tentions of the former to the latter’s daugh ter, Buckelew has threatened the life of both Adams and his daughter, and no one can surmise the ending of the matter. Adams nd his friends are ready for the worst. Recently there was a large excavation made on a lot ■almost immediately at the residence of tljfelate Dr. Janies A. Gray, of Atlanta, lu roc excavation a sewer was opened and remained so for awhile, despite the protests cf the neighbors, in which Dr. Gray joined. It is possible that no one suffered on account of the excavation and sewer, but the results in Dr. Gray's home would not lead to such a conclusion. Dr. Gray’s sister had a severe attack of typhoid fever; Dr. Gray is in his grave, and Mr. Harkins, a brother-in-law, is critically ill that, disease. Two years ago, iu’At lanta, a great ditch for n sewer was dug near the home of a beautiful young lady who was the picture of health. She was taken with fever and died. Certainly she owed her death to the local cause. About two miles south of Madison about midnight Saturday night Aleck Morris, a negro, killed Dan Locket, cut Locket’s wife’s t nr oat and stabbed his own wife, Mary. He killed Dan Izx-ket, his father-in-law, by shooting him in the back of his head with a ahoigun while Dan was asleep. Morris then tried to kill his mother-in-law, Lucy locket., by cutting her thi-oat. He made a wound from car to ear and severed the windpipe. She may die at any mo ment. After leaving Lucy locket as dead he sprang at his w ife. Mary Morris, pulled her out of the house and stabbed her several times in the neck, but she is not dangerously cut. The trouble grew out of the iact that Aleck had whipjied his wife, and she wont to the house of her father. Dan Locket. Aleck went there last night and tried to persuade her to re turn home. Not succeeding, he revenged himself by trying to kill the whole family. The scoundrel escai>ed, but Sheriff Hillsmaii lias bloodhounds from Smiths convict comp on his track, and he may be caught. Morris is rather thin, 5 feet 10 inches in height, weighs alsiut 140 (suinds, ginger cake colored, and is cross eyed. The negroes are much excited. If he is caught to-day an effort will be made to lynch him. The boys of Arlington are fond of prac tical jokes. In fact, they are a worry to the city government About a mile from town is a negro church in which a large congregation had assembled a night or two ago leading to the church is a winding rath that crosses a large jiond. A cvpi-ess nas broil thrown across it and is used for a foot log. A place was selected where the water is about four feet deep, and a small wire was tied across the log, lirawn tight, three inches above. The first brother that came along, followed by nt least a dozen more, was tripped, and into the water he went, followed by I wo or three other brothers and sisters. The lamentations were loud, but the Ixjyn en joyed the fun. Not satisfied with that, they secured a rope about 50 feet long and tied it across the public road, just high enough to catch a man in a buggy under the chin. In tow n were a couple of country wags that had been imbibing free%. About 14 o’clock they started home, one driving and the other laying on t he whip. The rope struck each one under the chin and landed them about forty frot back in the road. Forlu riately neither wasserionsly hurt. Their necks were stretched about an inch, and both were neared nearly out of their wits, and have promised never to touch another drop. FLORIDA. Quantities of tobacco are offered for sale at Lake City. Pricts range about '4oc. a pound. Key West begins anew era in educa tional matters by the opening of Bt. Joseph’s College. (’olunibia county exported of its own pro ductions for the seasons of 1885-Si over $500,000. F. E. Gonzales’ De Soto cigar factory, at Izike Citv. received orders week before last to the amount of 15,000 cigars and last week 7,500. The store at Denver has again passed into the hands ot W. C. Braddock, the original mvner, and will in future lie managed by Murray Hall, of Oakland. Business has opened very dtill this fall at Lake City. Merchants and farmers com plain at the low price of cotton. A pet ition requesting the appointment of W. C. Braddock as post master of Crescent City is being circulated, and has already been signedby quite a number. Charles P. Reid, editor of the Argus and manager of the Sanford Publishing Com pany, has taken a position on the News- Herald at Jacksonville as proof reader. At Sanford at 11 o’clock Friday night the three saloons that escaped the fire closed their doors in consequence of the local option law, which law went into effect Saturday morning. If Tavares is elected county seat of Lake county, she will provide for Lake the finest court house in South Florida. The plans are all prepared, and work will liegin on it within sixty days after that place is chosen. The two mounted brass howitzers have been plai'ed in the Seminary grounds at Gainesville, to take the place of the larger guns. The cadets are not especially pleased with their appearance, as they are not of the latest patterns. At Tallahassee the Railroad Commission has about completed the work of making the classifications, tile tariff for freight ana passengers, and other regulations in connec tion therewith, and the publication will lie made at an early day. There are seventy-six public schools in Orange county, eight of the number being colored schools. All schools will tie run six months. The average attendance is not yet known,and cannot be ascertained until the meeting of the County Board on Monday, Oct. 10. James Bowen, near Davenport, came to Polk county four years ago with only $4 and a large family. He now has a well improved and prosperous home. Within the four years of his residence he hiys killed 570 deer and four bears, one of which weighed 000 pounds. He has also killed a large number of turkeys—twenty five within the last three weeks. Mr. Bowen has realized $1,500 from the sale of game killed in Polk county the last, four years. At Gainesville Saturday Peril Bayer made a tender of the money to t he Collector of Revenue and asked for a license, which was refused. A writ of mandamus has been, or is being prepared, which will bring the matter into court. What will he set forth in the writ is not stated, but it will probably not stop until the decision of the Supreme Court is reached. That, may take several months. Whether any of the other saloon-keepers in the county will take the same steps remains to be seen. A joint stock company of New Yorkers has been formed, with a capital of $lOO,OOO, to purchase and cultivate tobacco in (tads den county fur another year. An option for the purchase of 4,000 acres of land lying principally near the railroad, with forfeits deimsited in some instances, has been ef fected, subject to confirmation within fif teen to sixty days by the parties supposed to be connected with this joint stock com liaiiy. The lands under the contract have iieen sold at reasonable, if not at low prices. Good articles of tobacco are selling from 45c. to 81c. per pound. Several more to I iai vo men are expected there this week. Nothing else is talked about there. Every body is delighted at, the prospects. The sanguine are shouting that the boom has come at last. A warrant was sworn out injustice De Lotto’s court, at. Key West Wednesday, by R, B. Hamel, representative there of the Havana La Lucha, for the arrest of Bettor Estrada, editor of the daily l.u Propaganda, for assault ami battery. The cause of the trouble is said to have tieen a statement made by Hamel that Estrada had informed him that, "the charge of the Spanish gov ernment. upon which Poublo, the American citizen, was recently con victed, was murder, and not in the least political.” This statement, which is of course untrue, M r. Estrada emphatically denies having made, and he called upon Mr. Hamol, at Mr. Gato’s factory demanding a retraction as to the authority which Hamel is said to have quoted when making the afore-mentioned statement. Hamel insisting that Estrada really had told him so, the latter called him a liar and then slapped his face: for which assult Hamel afterward swore the warrant for ar rest. The case was compromised. At St. Augustine fifteen years ago an or dinance declaring (’entral avenue open from Cedar street to King street. For fifteen years they have lieen endeavoring to get this extension put through, but in vain. The line of the street passes through the land of Mrs. Foster, a widow who has steadily op|iosed its being open. Its opening being deemed a public necessity. Alderman Beasley and Erchbaum were determined to have it opened before the close of their term of office. Meantime, Mrs. Foster got out an in junction which she intended to serve when ever an attempt was made to carry out the provisions of the ordinance relating to it. Knowing t hat no injunction papers could be served on Sunday a force of men was employed that day, beginning at daybreak, ana in spite of the protests of the angry property owner they continued work until the street was opened and fenced on Isith sides. Central avenue will now be con tinueithrough the lands of the St. Augus tine Improvement Company, and will lie over a mile in length. Thu eomjiany pro poses to shell the road, thus making a fine driveway of it. President VY. D. Chipley.of Florida Chau tauqua, met Dr. Gillett, Suiierintendent. of Instruction, at the latter's office in Cincin nati, Thursday, together with several man agers of the association. The day for ojien ing the fourth annual session at DeFuuiak Springs was finally fixed on Feb. Hi next. President Chipley re|M>rts that while the usual literary and scientific features will lie as strong as heretofore, the musical and art departments will surpass all former efforts. Among the popular uttraetious will lie fire works every night, instead of twice a week, as at former meetings. A John Bunvau memorial exerriuea will he held, commem orating the 4Uoth anniversary of Bunyan’s death. Schools for typewriting, stenogra phy, telegraphy and athletic exercises have been added The Hotel Chautauqua has been placed under new amt improved man agement. The Alleghany House and New York Hotel have been completed since the last assembly. The usual annual institute, in view of the fFt that the State Normal College for whites ha- lieen established at DeFtmiak Springs, will receive special at tention and lie made very brilliant. The annual premium for school work w ill lie of fered the schools of the State. Cubans employed in the FlModelo cigar factory struck Saturday because two Span iards were employed there. The shop em ploys about KKS cigai'iuiikers, marly all of whom are Uubars, there being among them only two Spaniards—the two above mentioned. There are also abort fifty 'Bitrip|xux,” so called, employed, most ly females. Among the latter is’a uati' e Spanish woman, deeply imbued with the love of her native land, so much so that tbe beautiful and impulse senorita would persist in wearing tlie colors typical of her country around her hat; and this was the cau.se of all the trouble. Whenever the proud Spanish dame would come into the shop, displaying the triple colors of her native land" the two Spaniards would twit tbein o lab ire in from the island of Unto about, it, which seriois'y wounded their pride. Their hot and lnipu - si ve nature brooked the insults until THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY. OCTOBER 4. I*#7. patience ('Mscd to lie a virtue, so they walked out and the only conditions upon which they would return was that the two Spaniards should tie discharged. It is said that the foreman of the shops made this concession, when they all returned to work in a body. And now all is serene again. Had Respect for His Religion. From the Hartwell (fr'n.) Sun. Recently a colored preacher met a deacon of Ins church in Hart well and the following colloquy ensued: “look heah, Deacon .tones, wbut’s dis I’sse tieen hoariu’ ’lmut you?” “ ’Bout who?” “’Bout you.” “Who?—me?” “Yaas, you -dat's w’at 1 said.” “Me? —'taiu’t so; I don’t care w’at you heard.” “ l heanl dat you went ober de creek to de frolic night befo’ las'.” “In cp’se I went to de frolic—w’afs dat ?” “An’ I heard f’um de moufs ob two or t’ree witness dat you shook yo’ hoofs.” “How’sdat ?” “I heard dat you danced. Brer Jones, actilly danced, an’ you a deacon in de cliu’ch—how dar’ you carry yo’ ’ligion to sich a place as dat!” "Stop right dar. Brer Snowdown—who said I carried my ’ligion wid me? —dat’s a lie—neber dun it. I did dance a set or two, and dat’s de God’s trufe, but den I neber carried my’ligion to de frolic; l lef’ it at home.” “Nebber carried yo’ ligion wid you?” “ ’Cose not, w’afccner take me for? Ilef’ it home, I tell you. Don’t ketch me car ryn’ my ’ligion to a dance—lse got too much respec’ for my ’ligion dan dat—heeper niggahs do, but dey ain't got no sense, an' deir ’ligion don’t ’mount to much nowhow. an’ dey oughter lie turned out’n de chu’ch.” “Hat's ail right, Brer Jones, Ise glad to heah dat you Is got so much respec’Wr yo’ ’ligion; but look yer, my good brudder, you 1 letter lie careful how you leave yo’ 'ligion lyin’ ’round loose—don't mine some t’leving niggah'll coinr 'long an' stole it ’fo’ you gits back fun) de frolic. Listen to a friendly word of caution f’um yo’ Pasture, Brer Jones, an' put yo’ ligion under lock an’ key when you let” um at home. But ae bes’ way is to stay 'way f’um de frolic an'set up wid yo’ ’ligion—dat's my ’sperunee, Brer Jones.” _ __ A Negro War Dance. from the Hartwell (Gn.) Sun. A most disgraceful row occurred at the house of Francis Patterson, in the north eastern suburbs of town on Sunday after noon. It seems that a crowd of negroes had congregated there for the purpose of drink ing whisky and having a big time generally. Arch Gilmer, a huge, burly fellow, became crazed with the rotgut whisky, and pulling off his shirt bantered the world and the balanceof mankind fora tight. Finally he fell aboard of Anthony Mantz and a regu lar dog tight ensued—everybody, men and women, pitching into Arch Gilmer. Arch received a blow on the head with a dog block, which cut a three inch gash to the skull, and he bled like a stuck hog, getting the blood all over his naked body to his waist. Anthony Mantz's left eye was draped in mourning, anil other combatants in the ring were slightly disfigured. The floor of tire house was as bloody as a butcher pen. The officers were sent for and arrested the whole party. They were brought liefore the Council Monday, and Frances Patterson was fined $45 for selling whisky contrary to law. Arch Gilmer was fined $lO, George Mantz $5, Anderson Harrison $5, and Anthony Mantz $4 ‘>o for fighting. When Arch Gil mer was brought to town on Sunday after noon, he had the appearance of a ferocious wild beast as he scratched the dried blood from his naked body. Hartwell Ahead. from the Hartwell ((fa.) Sun. lost week the town was alive with Texas ponies of the small, lean variety. A man weut into Benson's store and said to “Old B.”: “Whar did all them po’ little hosses come from ?” The old man replied: “Borne fellows brought two big loads of hides and 1 tones here from Anderson, and you just, ought to go to Kidd's .stable and see’em making horses.” “Waal, I’ll swa’r!” ejacu lated the man, “Hotwell is way ahead of Elbutton now, since she’s got a boss fact’ry."
