Fiftv-six carpenters are at work on the addition to the Tallai>oosa hotel, ami the company will have it ready and furnished in time for the auction sale. Three years ago Tallapoosa's entire population was under fifty. Councilman Allen, of Atlanta, is accused of issuing relief orders to anti-Prohibition jsts who did nut deserve assistance from the city, and that it a> lieing dune to control votes at the approaching election. He de nies it. An investigation may be made. The resignation of Kev. G. M. Campbell, pastor of the Baptist church at Hartwell, was tendered and accepted last Sunday, to go into effect at the close of the'year. Itev. E. R. Carswell, Jr., of Elberton, was unani mously chosen to serve the church during 1888. Wednesday night, John Hester, a negro, living near Monroe, went “possum” hunting, leaving his two children, 6 and 8 years old, locked up in the house. His wife had gone off to preaching. When they returned they found the house in ashes, and nothing left of the two children but their charred re mains. The rolling stock of the Western and At lantic railroad consist* of 55 locomotives, 732 box cars, 28 stock cars, 328 coal cars, 137 flat cars, 34 catvoses. and 40 passenger equipment cars. The value of the locomo tives, as assessed for taxes, is $198,000, and cars $297,425. The average life of a locomo tive is about eighteen years and of a passen ger ear twelve years. McKinney & Walton shipped from Blue Ridge to the Piedmont Exposition, last Bat urday, a solid lump of manganese weighing 1,000 pounds, and a solid lump of iron ore weighing 1,500 pounds, from their banks at that place. They could have sent larger pieces, but could not handle them. The manganese assayed 55 percent, and the iron i0 per cent., just from the top of the vein. Gen. C. D. Anderson, now of Fort Valley, while commanding a brigade of State troop* at the battle of Griswold villa, got his old black horse, Selim, wounded. He sent Obe Adams back to Macon, who purchased for him a sorrel from a soldier who had ridden him through the war. The old sorrel, known as “Old Bill,” is now 33 years of age, and is the property of Mr. W. J. Anderson, of Houston county. The outlook in Conyers is bright. Added to the inexhaustible field of pure granite around the town, a gold mine, glistening with the richest ores, has been discovered on the lands of Dr. Quigg, less than half a mile from the court house. This discovery is the sensation of the day. The Conyers Gold and Granite Company is now being or ganized to develop these treasures. Speci mens of our abounding wealth will be ex hibited at the Piedmont Exposition. Wilcox Superior Court has adjourned. Emmett Famell was found guilty of mur der, and was sentenced to imprisonment for life. George Gray, who was convicted of murder at the last spring term of the court and sentenced to hang, but who, on motion of his counsel, was granted anew trial was, by consent of the prosecution, allowed to enter a plea of voluntary manslaughter, which sends him to the penitentiary for twenty years, the full limit allowed bv law. At Atlanta Thursday Hon. R. U. Harde man, State Treasurer, was most agreeably surprised. Two friends, Hon. William A. Harris and Hon. H. H. Cabaniss, Secretary and Assistant Secretary of the State Sen ate, presented to the Treasurer a handsome gold watch and chain. There was no speech making or responses, but the whole affair was conducted quietly and feelingly. The watch is a magnificent gold one, and on the inside case are the words: “From \V. A. H. and H. H. C., as a token of friendship.” A petition is being circulated throughout Ktewart county for the purjsise of securing the requisite number of names praying for the Ordinary to order another election on the whisky question. The county went dry in November, 1885, and as the two years are about out, some pe< ’pie want to try the ques tion again. They have about secured the number, and the petition will soon be pre sented to the Ordinary. If whisky is voted back, it will only be sold in Lumpkin, as the Ordinary has stated that he will refuse to issue license outside of that town. The Clarke Light Infantry, of Augusta, are drilling three times a week, and are get ting into excellent shape for the Piedmont fair. They will drill every night next week, except Monday and Thursday nights, when • theatrical company will occupy the lioards there. They expect their new uniforms Monday. The Richmond Hussars will take nearly sixtv men, and expect to make a fine display. They drill every night, and are thus getting iu splendid shape. The Edge field Hussars will accompany them, and also expect to have a strong company along. An Albany lady who hail a good many very fine sour pomegranates, concluded that she would try to utilize them by making them into jelly. She was led into the experiment by the common belief tlmt jelly could be made from any sour or acid fruit. The seeds were carefully removed from the rinds, and yielding a surprising quantity of juice when squeezed through cheese cloth. The formula usually used in making fruit jellies was adopted, but the experiment was a failure. Not satisfied with her first experiment, she made u second one, but this was as unsuccessful as the first, so she now says that she doesn’t believe that jelly can be made from pome granates. A novel suit has been file*! with the Clerk of the Hujierior Court at Macon. Robert Cook (colored) through Mess™. Dessau & Bartlett, institutes suit against William Wolff to recover damages amounting to $5,000, and for this reason: In January of last year he was employed by Mr. Wolff to pack and gather frozen cotton from the burned warehouse of Stewart <ft Davis; that he refused to work in the cotton because of the cold, but he claims he was told bv Mr. Wolff that he would pay for any sickne-s that might result; that he worked in the said frozen cotton for two days, when his hands began to swell, and were finally frost-bitten, causing the loss of the fingers on both hands and a thumb from one lined. He therefore wants SS,OCX) for the loss of his fingers. At Jefferson a day or two ago, while dis cussing the relations existing Is-twecn the counties of Malison and Jackson, W. T. Bennett took occasion last Wednesday to relate how the county line bet ween the two was located. Mr. Bennett, who Is Clerk of the Court, was then surveyor, but in com pany with a surveyor from Madison failed on that disputed lino. Other surveyors made like futile efforts to settle it. William Thurmond, of Newtown district, suggested that, the soil be examined very closely; and stated that bo felt sure the ex act lir/> would bo fonnd. This, Mr. Ben nett says, was done, and it is said to the surprise of all. just on the Madison side, stood ti row of ticks looking over into Jack son county. The liue was tutu settled, and harmony restored. Last Sunday night Raisden a colo-ed woman who live, in a tenement hoijf on t ; -e plantation of t apt. Robert Burton, ,t EllaviUe, went to church and left her three little boys, aged from 5 to p> years, in the house. Soon after the mother ha 1 left another little negro hoy about 10 years old, Gene Butt by name, came to S]ien I the night with the children. An old shotgun was standing In a corner of the room that was thought for mouths to have not been loaded. The children, like most children will do. commenced to examine it, and in their childish curiosity Gene Butts, in null ing the hammer ba••k, let it slip, and the gun that had lioen thought to la* unloaded sent a load of shot in th.- head of Jessie, one of the little boys, scattering |>art of his brains over the room. The little negro, we understand cannot possibly live. It is generally rumored that Commis sioner Henderson w ill, in the near future, make some important, changes in the agri cultural department so far as the offices of fertilizer inspector are concerned. Just how much truth there is in this rumor it is not known, hut this much can Is- said, that some very excellent and energetic gentle men. through their friends, are making ap p!nation for places. The inspection of ter t direr*. as heretofore practiced, has recently been commented upon by the General Assembly, and the new applications for positions are said to be by gentlemen whose recasts in other avocations are a safe guarantee that they will with diligence and dispatch look after the duties of the office. It is not known where the new ap[>ointments will be made or who they will affect. It is very likely that Gov. Gordon will, in some way or other, present the necessity to the General Assembly of an appropriation to meet the expenses of tho convict investi gation. Tite State employed two able and well-known lawyers, and the executive or der making them the legal representatives of the State in the matter declared that they should not receive more than $5OO for their services. Then, tie 1i is a huge mass of stenographic testimony to lie paid for. It was taken down and written out at a cost of 20c. pier 100 words, the usual charge in such matters. The evidence will cover some tloO or 700 pages, and the stenographers wijj, be due at least $OOO. Then there is printing and attendance to be paid for. In all, the investigation cost nearly $l.OOO, and the ex pense will have to be met by an extra ap propriation. There is no contingent fund left to meet the emergency. One of the most fiendish outrages that has been ]>erpetrated in tbe confines of Fayette county for a long while took place Wednes day night. During the early part of Friday night Jim Messer, who lives near Brook's station, observed a bright light in the direction of his barn, which on close exami nation proved to be on fire. Hastily calling his family he rushed to the scene of the con flagration and worked bravely tosuMue the flames. The fire had gained such head way that, work as he would, it was impos sible to get it under control, and in a short time tho Iwrn and its contents were de stroyed. This is not the worst feature in the case, however. When Mr. Messer re turned to the house he was amazod to find everything in great disorder. A trunk in one corner of the room bad lieen broken ojien and $2BO stolen, besides other articles of value. That the incendiary is also the thief will not admit of reasonable doubt. The entire loss will reach nearly or quite $7OO. John McNally, tho person from whom Blackwood, tho noted Carolina forger, and for some time a bone of contention between Georgia and Carolina, secured a large amount of money on a forgisl note, and who accompanied tho officer who arrested him to Carolina, has decided to go to South Carolina and stand his trial utxin the charge of kidnaping. He says he did only what any other man in his position would have done, endeavor to secure stolen money, and he sees no reason why he should lie pun ished for his effort, which was, however, unsuccessful, so far as getting the money was concerned. The people of Aiken county, where he was indicted, seem determined to punish him, having some time since gotten a requisition for him, but he succeeded in remaining in Georgia by trumping up an old case. The case nas not yet come up, but be has decided to take his chances in Caro lina. Maj. W. F. Gary is his attorney, and his friends are of the opinion tltat, notwith standing the prejudice of the Aiken pieople, he will he released. Three months ago there fame to Toceoa three race-horses, said to be worth 140,000. Each horse had a groom. The owner was said to be in Cincinnati. Shortly after their arrival, one of the gr'xvns left for Asheville, leaving the horse in charge"of the other two, who were called Harry and Daddy. That is all ever heard concerning their names. About one month ago the one called Harry, who was the younger, got on a spree aud was caught stealing soino cuff buttons from a merchant. He was arressted and sent to the chain gang for six monWis. Daddy was left alone with the three horses to cure for. As the owner failed to make his appearance H. W. Jones, who is proprietor of the stables, became uneasy about the board, and on Tuesday last attached the three racers. “Lady lA'ar,'' who is said to lie valued at 110,000 by her owner, was sold by the Con stable for f 150 to Dr. J. MeJenkins. She had throe records, trotting, pacing and run ning. It is hardly probable that the owner will allow the sale to close if he becomes aware of it in time to prevent it. It is un derstood that the horses have all been en tered for the race at the Peidmont Exposi tion. FLORIDA. PeFuniak now has four schools in opera tion. A street car company is being organized at Paiatka Starke has a neat little daily paper called th v Reflector. Tampa’s Mayor has approved the water works ordinance. An immigration society has been organ ized at Lake City. C. B. White, of Daytona, shipped eleven barrels of lemons Tuesday. The Halifax river at Daytona is literally swarming with fish of all kinds. Pioneer Bodge of Odd Fellows has been removed from Peniel to Paiatka. Kamuel Hligh, of Lady Lake, shipped twelve boxes of ripe oranges Monday. A forty-room hotel is to be erected at Blue Spring, Marion county, this winter. About $ll,OOO was spent for whisky at Ocala last Friday before the barrooms closed. Th i contract for the construction of the Episcopal church at Titusville has been let to L. It. Decker for $1,087. Capt. J. B. Parrmore has been elected President of the South Florida Gas and Electric Light Company, of Orlando. Tho Silver Spring Park Land Company has purchased a tract of land near Atlanta, Ga., paying $40,000 for it. They intend to boom it this winter. Part of the material for building tho new Presbyterian church at Gainesville is al ready on the ground, and the work of erect ing it will be vigorously pushed. It is understood that Mr. Booker, the English gentleman who recently purchased the large Sims grove on Lake Apopka, will build an elegant residence at Ocoee. Tuesday afternoon tho Brevard County Commissioners decided to ra i so the amount of $l,OOO for a county exhibit at the Sub- Tropical Exposition at Jacksonville. The Orange County Judge’s office com plain that there aro very few, if any, in fact no marriage licenses being issued, but hope for more busiuoss in that line later on. Ex-Gov. W. I). Bloxham and wife re turned to Tallahassee last week from their summer sojourn in Virginia. The ex- Governor looks much improved in health. Capt. B. M. Sims, who lately sold his im mense orange grove on Lake Apopka, has closed the sale of his large lemon grove to Col. Withers, of Lexington, Kv., for $lO,- 000. T. C. Grey lias been appointed the admin - istrator of the estate ot H. Sweotapple, of Orlando, deceased, til and his bond in tho suui THE MORNING NEWS: ST’XDAY, OCTOBER 0, 1887. of .*lO.OOO, and entered upon his duties as such. Young Bnn> tt. who was arreste 1 in Jack sonville! Tuesday, for several robberies, is t h'night to l> the same [tarty who broke into Korstiug’s drug store, at Palatka last week. A loan has ben consummated with the Indian River Bank by the Board of Direc tors of the Titusville School Building Asso ciation, and work will be commenced shortly. The comity authorities of Levy have offered a reward of $ 100 for the conviction of th murderer of W. J. Medlin. and petitioned the State authorities to offer a further reward of not less than >5OO. At Ocala Friday G. A. Carmichael, through attorney J. W, Couch, got an alternative writ from Judge Finley on the Collector of the city to show cause why a license be not granted. It is returnable on Oct. ill. At Sanford Friday a colored man. whose name is not known, was run over by the switch train of the South Florida railroad, just north of the water works, near the point where the transfer track of the Jack sonville, Tampa and Key West leaves the South Florida track, and was fatally in jured. Capt. Frank Phillips, of Marianna, has a pecan tree in his back yard which is full of fruit and will yield more than two barrels of pecans this year The tree was planted by Capt Phillips'father several years ago. He also has a peach orchard just set with young trees, and has besides a large number of other trees, from one to two years old, with which he proposes to start an extensive grove. The Pensacola fire laddies learned that a false alarm was to lie given Thursday night and a prize given the first hose company throwing water from a designated hydrant. Asa matter of course all hands were in readiness, and it is said that some of the lioys had their hose carriages hid around the corners to be conveniently on hand. The alarm was not given, but each company claims that it would have “got thar fust.” The Mayor of Sanford issued the follow ing circular Friday: “Ordered, that occu pants of property be allowed to burn in the middle of the street fronting their residences or places of business, accumulated inflam mable debris, such as trash, chips, barrels, etc., lietween the hours of 2 and 5 o’clock to-day, and between 6a. m. and sp. in. to morrow: provided, the burning Is carefully watched, and the material is not in too great masses. This order is given in order to remove all possible sources of disease.” At Gainesville Wednesday night, John Aleck, the Greek who keeps a fruit and candy stand just west of McMillan & Mil ler’s drug spire, was on his way home be tween‘J and 10 o’clock, and when turning the corner of the street near Mrs. Water bury’s residence he was assaulted by two negroes, who dangerously beat, and bruised him with dubs and stones. Aleck recog nized his assailants as being Jonathan Cer tain and Sam Rivers, two thugs with whom he had some trouble a few nights Riv ers has been arrested but Certain is still at large. The Governor has made the following ap pointments: W. J. Magill, Justice of the Peace for the Tenth district of Duval county; J. R. Herrin, Supervisor of Regis tration for Holmes county; William Fuz zard, County Judge for Dade county; Samuel Rhodes, County Treasurer for Dade county; G. W, Clyalt, County Commissioner for First Commissioners’ district of Brad ford county. Under the now law the Gov ernor has appointed one or more Justices of the Peace lor the following counties: Alachua, Citrus, Clay, Hamilton, Hernando, Isafayette, Nassau and Pasco. At Pensacola, Thursday, a young man named Juan Soto presented a check for sls, signed George W. Collins, to F. C. Brent & Co.’s bank, asking if the paper were genu ine. He was informed that it was not. The County Solicitor is now investigating the forgery. Mr. Collins is averse to a prosecu tion, which will tand to tho crimination, probably, not of Soto, but of another,whose name is withheld until further develop ments. Soto got the check from a young colored man, named Green, who will be re membered as the Signal Service officer who raised such a fuss some time ago. and who was subsequently dismissed from the ser vice. Last week the county prisoners confined in the Leesburg calaboose, made an effort to escape, and four negroes, who were charged with gambling, succeeded in tho attempt. Previously, in addition to being confined, they hail been guarded, but the State Comp troller refused to allow pay for guards, and as the Sheriff was under no requirement to pay for them out of his own pocket, the guards were removed. The Comptroller has been considerably criticised for his ac tion, in view of the fact that it is anew county and there had not been time enough to build a jail. The jail at Bloomfield, how ever, was completed Thursday, and the re maining prisoners will be removed thither at once. The sensation at Ocala is the announce ment of the elo|iement of Ray Bullock and Miss Musa \Vright, and their marriage at Gainesville. Miss Wright arrived at Ocala Thursday night in company with friends and took the Florida Railway and Naviga tion morning train for Gainesville, where, with a letter of introduction to S. C. Tucker, all the necessary arrangements were perfected to bind the silken cords on the arrival of the groom and the best man, Rufus Waterman. The iturtles are of the highest standing in the community. The groom is a son of Gen. Robert Bullock, while tho bride is the daughter of Capt. Wright, of Lake Weir. Parental restraint, owing to the youth of the parties, was tho cause of the clandestine work. One of Florida’s best, if not the best ex hibits sent to the Piedmont Exposition, was a tiearing Mandarin orange tree loaded with fruit. It was put in a box without disturb ing the roots or earth as it grew. A large box with the bottom taken off was passed over the tree to the ground, when the earth was cut away from the outside of it, allow ing the box to drop down, and after passing below the roots the bottom of tho box was slipped under and the tree taken up. Up to the time of starting to Atlanta it had been in the box sevon days and showed no signs of being disturbed—not a leaf or orange had dropped. This exhibit was from the grove of L. P. Hughey, of Kissimmee, who is the first to accomplish this feat success fully. The tree was given the place of honor. Brace Up.
