6 GEORGIA AM) FLORIDA. NEWS OP THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. Death of a Woman Who Saw Napo leon’s Army Marching Through Sax ony In 1811, and Sherman’s Through Atlanta Eight Squirrels Killed in Two Shots in Glascock County. GEORGIA. Wright Tumberlin. of Wilcox county, steps to the front with a mammoth squash measuring 8 fret, and 1% inches in length and 3 feet and 6}*, inches in circumference. It was raised from seed sent out by the Agricultural Bureau at Washington. A. T. Logan, of Spring Place, promised his two little girls last week if they would pick peas enough to defray their expenses he would take them to the Piedmont Fair. So in the hope of their reward the little girls picked twelve bushels and a half of peas in one week. In Burke county on Tuesday morning a colored woman from the Wyatt place, named Nellie Warren, was riding on top of a wagon loaded with cotton. The mules got frightened, and in attempting to run away, struck a wheel against a tree. The woman, falling off, was run over by the loaded wagon and killed. A sample of coal from the Brown mine, near Fort Gaines, was submitted by Hon. W. J. Green to chemical analysis by a cor|>s of skillful chemists in Atlanta, and they unanimously pronounced it the finest sample they had ever seen in Clay county, being none other than the genuine and world-famous cannal coal. Photographer Jackson, of Brunswick, tells a gtxxl one on a well-known young man. Some time ago the young man had his picture taken, handsomely framed and sent, it to a young lady friend as a souvenir gift. The next day he received a note from the lady, in which she thanked him for the picture, but begged to return the frame, as she made it a rule never to accept anything valuable from a gentleman. A petition of more than forty names on it was presented to the Ordinary of Stewart comity last Wednesday, praying him to order an election on the sole of whisky in that county. The petition was considered, granted, filed in office and the order for the election handed in for publication in the Independent. But for reasons tiest known to those who presented it, the petition has been withdrawn and held for future action. At Villa Rica Sunday Bud Aderhold (colored) was caught while in the act of tak ing money out of a money drawer. The clerk caught him and took $(5 from him. The merchant had him arrested and locked up, and his preliminary trial was postponed tillß o’clock. The merchant failed to appear against him and he was released; and there is a rumor on the streets that a prominent farmer paid the merchant S3B to let the ne gro off. At Columbus Policeman McMiehael cap tured a burglar, Alexander Johnson (col ored), in Mattie Carter’s house on Sunday morning. Johnson succeeded in forcing an entrance to the house through the window. The cold draught from the open window aroused the occupants from sleep, and see ing the negro under the bed, she began screaming for the police. The burglar threw open the door, and ran into the hands of Policeman McMiehael, who arrested and landed him in the lockup. At Forsyth Saturday evening about 5 o’clock Henry Merrick, a negro porter at the Ellison House, made an assault upon the little 3-_vear-old daughter of J. G. Ellison, the proprietor of the hotel. The fact did not become known until 'Sunday, and the negro remained at large during the night. He was arrested at the depot Sunday morn ing by Sheriff King and lodged in jail, and will have his commitment trial this week. This is the second affair of the kind within the last five months, and the people are worked to a fever heat over it. Mrs. M. M. Trabert died at Atlanta Sun day at the residence of her grandsons, A. L. and E. C. Kontz, on Marietta street. She was born in the town of Ostheim, Saxony, in 1799. This was the home of Martin Luther. She saw Napoleon’s army as it marched through Saxony in 1811. She came to Atlanta in 1850 and has lived there until the day of her death. She remained in Atlanta through all the siege by Gen. Sherman. Several shells were shot, through the house she lived in. She has been a con sistent member of the Lutheran church for seventy-four years. As an indication of the big business the Americus, Preston and Lumpkin road is doing we will state that last Thursday morning, as the train from the western end started to Americus it was filled with freight and passengei-s. At Lumpkin all the empty cars that could l>e obtained were added, and when the train pul Us 1 into this city it was over an hour late, and had filled every car with freight and cotton, and at last had to clear the express car and load it with cotton bales. The train was a queer sight when it reached Americus, but it brought in a big load. At Macon Saturday S. Gantt and George Jones appeared before the Recorder to answer to the charge of cheating and swindling. This is the case where a young countryman reported to Officer Brooks that he had been mulcted of the sum of $5 for a shave, hair cut and shampoo at the Brown House barber shop. Ho failed to appear Saturday, and tne case was continued. Gantt says the countryman had his hair and eyebrows dyed, the old price for which would be $lO. He did not charge but $5 for the work, which is less, he says, than would have been charged elsewhere. W. H. Daniel, a well-known citizen of Wilkinson county, who lives near the Oconee river, is now (54 years old, has nine teen full-fledged boys and four daughters. He says be never had a fever in his life, never took a dose of medicine and never had the backache, and can do more hard work than any man in the district. He gets up at 4 o’clock in the morning, never fails to put in ten hours of good, lively work every day, eate three good, square meals a day, and does not drink coffee, tea or any thing stimulating. He relies upon the laws of nature for good health, and he expects to live to lie 100 years old. Probably never before in any part of the country where game so little abounds has there been a shot fired with the same effect, under similar circumstances, as the one which Andy Dixon, of Glascock county, made a few days ago. Dixon killed four sqnirrels at one shot and wounded a fifth. The squirrels were out on the limbs of a tree and not in a nest or hollow. A negro named Warren Davis, a day or two ago killed four squirrels at one shot. Three of them were young ones, and they were trying to take a hickory nut from the mouth of an old “frisky tail. In these days when a hunter kills even one squirrel at a shot it is counted a good many. LaGrange was excited Sunday morning over three dnring burglaries Saturday night. At the home of Dr. E. I). Pitman,'where George W. Truitt, the big farmer, was rest ing up stairs, Truitt’s pants ami little tin box containing purse and S2B were brought, down to the front gale, robbed ami left. The room of John M. Barnard, at Mix Gay’s,war also robbed, his clothing brought out. searched and left, with cotton receipts, which couldn’t be used without suspicion. No money was found. Mr. Barnard is rail road agent and President of the Oil Manu facturing Company. At Moses B. Kirby's boarding house, they hapixuiod into the little boy’s room, searched around,(andwhile the little fellow was awake, but frightened) made a water haul there and left in peace, and the boy’s narrative was thought to be imagination until the news from Pitman’s and Mrs. Gay’s spread. Mr. Davis will arrive in Macon Monday afternoon. How long he will .remain after Wednesday is not known. Every effort will tie made to keep him as long as possible. He and his family will be the guests of Mr. Marsh Johnson during their stay in Macon, they will leave Beauvoir Sunday night, in K V**?®* private parlor coach, accompanied ■inly by tbo committee of Alaoou citizens. No others will lie admitted to the ear. Mr. Davis'health will not permit receptions on the way. There will be no demonstration on bis arrival in Macon. He and his fami ly will, o i alighting at the depot, be driven at once to the residence of Mr. Mu sh John son. On Tuesday Mrs. Davis, Miss Winnie and Mix Hays (if she comes), and Mrs. Howell Cobb will lie driven to the park under escort of distinguished citizens. At the park these ladies will be presented to the people. Gov. P. H. Lowry, of Mississippi, writes that he will tie present on Old Sol diers’ Day. Gov. Perry, of Florida, writes that he will certainly attend. FLORIDA. Alexander Brown Crest view lias lieen granted a pension for services in the Mexi can war. Frank H. Fee has lieen appointed post master at Melbourne, Brevard county, vice Daniel W. McQuaig. At Altoona Dr. Abe-nethy has contracted to continue digging the artesian well, and will send it down to 1,000 feet. The Post Office Department announces that after July .1 next there will be a daily mail from Quincy to Concord. The tower on the new eitv building at, Pensaeoja will be about 100 feet from the top to the ground, tlie tallest spire in the city. The cotton shipments at Bonifay are now nearly over, and have been the largest ever sent from that section. The sample has been a fair average, and has commanded good paying prices. As the new Methodist church at Altoona is nearly complet“d the present Union Sab bath scfiool of the Methodist and Baptist churches will disband next Sunday. Both will at once organize a denominational school at their respective places of worship. Supt. Dillon, of the Western Union Tele graph Company, was occupied at Jackson ville Monday trying to ferret out the opera tor who assnnns 1 the role of calamity liar, and he thinks he has spotted him. The head of the offender will probably pay the |len til ty. The Sullivan Timber Company, having occasion to make a payment of $.30,000 at Mobile, one day last week sent over the sum in silver by n tug from Pensacola. Silver being at a discount in one place and at, a premium in the other, the company made SIOO by the operation. Brooksville News: The pleasant face of Mr, Stokes was on our streets Thursday. He used to drive the hack lietween ’Tampa and Gainesville when Brooksville had but two mails a week, and all of our old citizens will recall with pleasure the memory of the days when “Stokes came down.” Applicants for the West Point cadetship of the Second Congressional district of Florida will bo held at Jacksonville Nov. 1. C. H. Jones, of Jacksonville, Hon. J. F. Wei borne, of Sanford, and Maj. S. Conant, of Polatka, are the Board of Examiners for the examination of such applicants as may present themselves on that date. A. J. Wyman, of Archer, has made the following showing of the expenses, etc., of his three-fourths acre of cucumber*: Gross receipts, $727 (50: check, $451 <SO; crates, fertilizers, etc., $100; net, $351. Add to this,crop of cow peas and another of English peas, and three paying crops within the year show what can lie done by an effort. Owing to a break of machinery in the brick machine at Sorrento work lias sus pended for a short time. A party of San ford gentlemen have recently leased this machine, and intend putting on a force of hahds and making an immense thing of it. The clay found here is very fine, possessing a jxx-uliar mineral substance which, when burned, makes the brick as strong as iron. Quite a fortune will bo made out of this undertaking. Maj. Alex. St. Clair Abrams will speak at Yalahn, Wednesday, Oct. 19, day; Bloom field, Wednesday, (let. 19, night; Pittman and Ravenswood, at Pittman, Friday, Oct. 21, day; Fort Mason, Friday, Oct. 21,"night; Umatilla, Saturday, Oct. 22, day; Altoona, Saturday, Oct. 22, night; Sorrento, Mon day, Oct. 24, day; Eustis, Monday, Oct. 21, night. Unless otherwise announced, the day meetings will be hold at 10 o’clock and the night meetings at 7 o’clock. The Hoard of Health of I,c vv county at its meeting Monday passed the following resolutions: That the thanks of this board are due to Mr. Lewis Morris, agent of the Faber Pencil Company, for his prompt ac tion in telegraphing this board the fact that a report was accredited in Tallahassee that yellow fever existed in Jacksonville, a re port, however, which, upon official investi gate m, this board is pleased to know, proved to be unfounded. That the Secretary be directed to transmit a copy of this resolu tion to Mr. Morris. The United States Supreme Court, in the cast' of A. J. Coffee against Groovey, has reversed tlie decision of the Supreme Court of tile State of Florida. This case grew out of a disputed boundary line between Fiori da and Georgia. The line was fixed in the last century, and when anew survey was made it was discovered that the former sur vey was erroneous, and that it lapped the land of Florida. Then arose the question of the validity of tho titles to this land, which hail lieen given by Georgia. The Supremo Court holds that the titles are good. At Mavport, about a week ago, a haul was made with a seine owned by M. Conant and fished by J. B. Arnau and crew, around a school of berry fish. The catch was eighty-four bushels of fish. While they were taking the fish out of the seine on the lieaeh a shark of the man eating species made a rush for the fish and grnimed the net in his mouth. He seemed bound to claim a share. One of the crew killed him with an oar, by striking him on tho head, while others rushed into the water, grasped him by the tail and pulled him out. Ho was nine feet long. At Mayport for the past five days there has boon a gale from tho northeast, with the highest tides of the past nine years. The cottages of Jacksonville people have suffered severely. Tho breakwaters on the entire front, with the exception of N. A. Hall’s, have gone. Many of the houses have lmen undermined by the waves, and some of the foundation posts washed out. Henry Clark’s back porch is down. Charles Marvin’s front, and part of his side porch is gone. McDuff’s and Moses Brown’s houses are troth down—complete wrecks. There are three vessels off the bar at anchor. One is recognized as the Louis Bueki, the other two are three masters. A fourth schooner was reported having lieen seen last evening. The weather has been too rough for (lie pilots to board them, but will probably bring them in to-day. blooding: the Sahara. Pom the London. Daily N:irs. Every one is familiar with occasional projects for “Hooding the Sahara,” and the possible effect upon the climate of Europe has frequently been discussed by people who are blissfully ignorant of the fact that the bulk of the great desert is high above sea level. A much more practical scheme was placed before the British Association the other day, and one which has a more definite object—namely, the storage of tlie surplus flood water of the Nile for use in irrigating the delta during the dry season. About seventy-three miles south of Cairo there is a large depression called tbo Ruian ha-in, which could lie filled with water at the time or high Nile. Mr. Cope White house, to whom the scheme is due, calculates that the cost of the necessary works would be about 21,000,000, for which a supply of 25,000,000 cubic metres jier day for 100 days could bo obtained. If such a work were to be carried out during our tem porary administration of the country we should leave behind us a magnificent memo rial worthy of the enlightened rulers who in the dawn of civilization made Egypt the wonder and envy of the world. Young or middle-aged men suffering from nervous debility, loss of memory, premature old age, as the result of bad habits, should send 10 rents in stamps for large illustrated treatise suggesting unfailing euro. Address World’s Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N, Y. THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1887. A METHODIST CONFERENCE. . The Pine Valley District Divided at the Pearson Meeting. I’earsov. Ga., Oct. 17.—The Pino Valley District Conference of the New Congrega tional Methodist church has lieen in session at the Royal church, near this place, closing the Conference Saturday night and tho re ligious services Inst night. The reports from the various churches were quite cheering, as they have, many of them, had to labor under adverse circum stances; still, the Lord has been with tho ] preachers, and much good has been done. All are greatly encouraged. Rev. J. J. Davis was elected President for the coming year, and D. J. Miller. Secretary. Rev. J. M. Stiger was discontinued as a preacher in the church, his offense being preaching spurious doctrine from that held by the denomination. Martin F. Cason was licensed to preach. Feeling and touching resolutions ot con dolence were offered to the widow and chil dren of the Rev. Martin J. Inman, deceased. The district was divided and anew district formed, to bo known as the Florida dis trict. Rev. L. B. Wilson was elected Presi dent, and Lewis Thomas Secretary, of the new district. Rev. L. B. Wilson was ordained Elder. The next conference will be held at Kettle Creek church October, 1888. The first conference of the Florida district will be held at Pine Grove church, Baker county, Florida, on Thursday before the first Sunday in December next. The preaching was done by Messrs. W. A. McDonald, J. J. Davis, I*. B. Wilson, H. J. Thomson, D. J. Millor and Lewis Thomas, and was accompanied with great power of the spirit, the entire congregations being under its influence at every service. Nino new members were tho result. Lung Troubles and Wasting diseases can be cured, if properly treated in time, as shown by the following statement from I). C. Freeman, Sydney: “Having been a great sufferer from pulmonary at tacks, and gradually wasting away for the past two years, it affoi-ds me pleasure to testify that .Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil with Lime and Soda has given me great relief, and I cheerfully recommend it to all suffering in a similnr way to myself.
