The present feeling in real estate circles
at Augusta is characterized by an uniform
and steady demand for eligible property in
all parts of the city. An (specially good
demand for improved residence property,
ranging from $3,000 to $5,000 has been
noticeable, and many of the buyers are
strangers or recent acquisitions to the
population. The same class of buyers are
investing also in suburban property by way
of speculation.
Elberton Gazette: We learn that cotton
on bottom lauds, which was overflowed and
destroyed during the big freshet in August
last, lias since put out new sprouts and is
now full of green bolls from the size of a
partridge egg down to that of a bullet, It
is thought that, if there is no killing frost
until the middle of November, that some
cotton will yet be made on these places. It
will he of an inferior quality, as it is too
late for cotton to make good lint.
At Cochran last Friday night, while the
family of D. C. Walker were all at church
except Mrs. Walker and her son John, aliout
11 years old, a negro man was seen by John,
who was in the yard, at one of the windows
attempting to raise it. John slipped around
and got into his mother’s room from the
front of the house, and not letting her
know anything stole a pistol out of the bu
reau drawer and crept around the comer of
the house and fired n couple of shots at the
intruder. It is believed that the fugitive
was wounded.
The Daily Journal is the name of a hand
somely printed and newsy newspaper that
has recently made its ap|iearance in Bruns
wick. under the management of Mr. A. E.
Sholes. It is quite a venture in a city the
size of our neighbor that has already two
dailies. Tli* Journal, however, if kept up
to the standard of the numbers already
issued, will be a valuable adjunct to the
growth of Brunswick, and those who have
either business or property interests in that
city will find that money" spent in support
ing a newspaper of the class of this new
candidate for their patronage will be a good
investment.

Mrs. Kemp, whose husband is farming
for R. J. Anderson, of Mneon, on his planta
tion near Cochran, was in his yard attend
ing to some domestic affairs on Saturday
afternoon and heard the report of a pistol,
and instantly heard the whiz of a bullet
passing near her. Facing the direction of
the report she heard another shot and felt
something strike her on the right breast.
It was a bullet from a pistol, which pene
trated the clothing but did not enter the
flesh. A negro boy about 17 years old, who
was a hand on the place, soon came up and
told Mr. Korap that he shot at a hawk. Mr.
Kemp accepted his explanation, as he had
been a good hand, but the boy took fright
and fled about night. The tensing of the
other hands scared him off. Mrs. Kemp is
not hurt.
W. T. Harbaum, of Macon, has returned
from quite an extensive trip North. While
in New York he was so unfortunate as to
lose a pocket-book, and this advertisement
was inserted in the New York World:
“Lost, on the night of the 14th Octolier, on
Broadway, between Twenty-first, and Forty
third streets, a book containing fifteen SI,OOO
certificates on the Second National Bank
of New York, payable to the order of W.
T. Harbaum, and other drafts and papers;
they are no good to anyone; there may
have been some cash; the finder can keep
that and be liberally rewarded by return
ing papers and certificates to Coleman
House proprietor.” In addition to the con
tents named there were S3OO m caaU ut the
book. Nothing was heard of the book, but
Mr. Harbaum took immediate st qc to have
the certificates cancelled, and they would
therefore prove worthless to the finder.
As to how the book was lost, Mr. Hnr
j baum is of the opinion t hat, it occurred in
j this way. At the time he had on a now
i vest in which the tailor had placed the in
side pocket on the right hand side instead
of the left, to which he had been accus
tomed. Having occasion to use some
money, he placed the book, as he thought,
in the pocket, but instead it was placed on
the side whoro there was no poclot
and it fell out unnoticed. ft.
order to get the $15,000 he is required
to give a bond for double tho amount lost,
and this will lie done, nnd eventually the
$15,000 will be recovered in this way. The
bond is necessary to indemnify the Second
National Bank, on which the lost certifi
cates were issued, against any loss.

Capts. Matt and Eugene O'Brien arrived

New Orleans, is officiating in the stead of

The first steamer of the Morgan line from
New Orleans landed at Punta Gorda wharf
on Sunday last. It begins to look like busi
ness for that region to see steamers the size
of the Clinton plowing the waters of that

the docks into the cars which were in wait
ing at the end of the dock. CoL Bent,
Superintendent of the Charlotte llarlwir
Division of the Florida Southern railroad,
met the steamer at Boca Grande, and
piloted her into Punta Gorda. If any one
ever doubted that boats drawing 13 feet of
water could land at Punta Gorda that doubt
is now at rest.
Fed Mayo, of Bagdad, while passing
through John Diamond’s peanut field, where

on top of a stump gathered them in also
and ate them. After passing several such

struck him that tne old gentleman had
placed them there for the purpose of poison
ing tiio orows, and the more he thought of
it the worse he felt, and finally decided that
he was badly poisoned, and struck a bee
line for home. He told his wife the condi
tion he was in and what he had done, and
asked for melted lard and in tho meantime
dispatched a courier to Mr. Diamond's to
know if ho had out poison for the crows,
but before the boy returned he had drank
about a quart of tho lard, but gladly re
ceived the “false alarm.”
Col. E. W. Whitsides, the Mayor of St.
James City, on Pine Island, arrived in
Cleveland last Friday from Palatka, en
route to Pino Island. The Colonel was in
the host of spirits when he got off the train,
and he would still have held on to the genial
smile which wreathed his face, but when he
applied for passage on the steamer Alice
Howard he was informed by Capt. White
that he could only allow him to take pas
sage as far as the county line of Lee county,
at which point he would have to disembark,
owing to tho quarantine regulations estab
lished in said county. As the county line is
in the middle of Charlotto harbor, several
miles from land, and the water is about fif
teen feet deep, the Colonel refused to take
passage. Very persuasive arguments over
the wires to the Health Oflieers at Fort
Meyers had no effect. No person coming
from south of Jacksonville is allowed to
enter Lee county.
A KISH FAMINE.
The President’s Tour Creating a De
mand Never Before Known.
From the Pensacola {Fla.) Commercial.
Probably never in the history of the local
fish business has a famine so pronounced as
that at present existing prevailed for such
a length of time.
For tho past twelve days but one or two
catches have been reported, and the receipts
were of such insignificant amount as to lie
almost unworthy of chronicling. Nearly all
the vessels are at sea, but the weather has
been of such nature as to absolutely prevent
off-shore fishing, and the smacks are lying
in the different harbors along the coast,
their melting ice and consumed provisions
adding very materially to an expense ac
count for which there is no visible offset.
The norther of a few days ago, followed
by a strong east wind, and the lat ter suc
ceeded to-day by a dead calm, are certainly
most provolring. One day last week nine
vessels were anchored in St. Joseph’s bay,
and it is more than probable that they ai-e
there yet., unable in the calm to get out, and
uncertain of a catch should they get out,
the sea, despite the calm, rolling nenvily
outside.
Large receipts in the past week or ton
days would have proven a bonanza to the
dealers. Cleveland’s tour has created such
a demand for Pensacola fish as was never
known before. St. Louis had orders in that
would have absorbed the entire catch could
they have been filled, and Memphis and
Nashville were also on hand with big or
ders. Atlanta ordered over 13,000 pounds,
and Montgomery, iu her despair, has tele
graphed for fish of any sort—“ Send any
thing that looks like fish.”
Aside from the demand created by the
President’s apjienranoe at the different
cities along his route, there is the usual
general demand from all parts of the
United States, and the orders which have
been cancelled iu the past, fortnight are
almost countless in their vast number.
To say that the dealers are at their wit’s
ends is describing their feelings mildly.
Accustomed to receive and ship an average
of 750,000 pounds of fresh fish per month,
and to be now in receipt of orders for
quantities hitherto unknown to the market,
and which they cannot even think of filling,
is galling in the extreme, and an abate
ment of the famine has not the prospect
oven of an early consummation.
It is to be hoped that the smacks will he
better favored during the current week, and
that by Friday or Saturday many of them
will report with large receipt*. The fish
business is one of Pensacola's main indus
tries, and a setback to it. means a lull that
will be felt throughout the commerce of the
city, for it gives employment to many men,
whose ill luck must perforce engender a
dullness that cannot, hut lie experienced by
the merchants and others, whose success
must depend upon the state of the times.
THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1887.
A REMARKABLE PERFORMANCE.
Julius Ceesar Played in Business Suits
and Traveling Dresses.
From the. Macon (Ga.) Teleyrajth.
One of the most remarkable perform
auces, barring rehearsals, that was ever
given on Macon boards was that given by
Mr. Keene and company at the Academy of
Music last night, the play being “Julius
Caesur.”
When tho curtain went up for the first
time the manager made the announcement
that they were the victims of Georgia hos
pitality in that the great crowds in Atlanta
prevented their baggage from lieing loaded
on the cars and the consequence was the
company was hero without even a vestige of
costume or stage projierty. He further an
nounced that the money would be refunded
at the door to those who did not wish to re
main. In compliment to Mr. Keene the au
dience, with a half-dozen exceptions, re
mained in their seats.
A case knife to lie used a* the dagger was
borrowed from the Stubblefield House. Mr.
Keene effected the loan of a toupee from a
Macon friend, whose name is withheld for
prudential reasons, and the play proceeded.
Let it be said in the outset that Mr.
Keene has a most excellent company, and
playing under such circumstances as those
of last night, was as severe a test as Mucon
critics, or any other critics, for that
matter, could subject them to. They
gave a fine performance, each mem
ber acquitting him or herself in
so excellent and so faithful a manner as to
almost make the audience forget that the
costumes were at that time packed away
in the trunks. But the risibles were sorely
tempted when Marc Antony appeared in a
black business coat and a pair of pepper
and-salt pants, while Brutus with ins glit
tering watch chain looked the shoe drum
mer. Sympathy was expressed for Ca-snr,
whose head was bald, and Decius seemed
unhappy in his old gold yachting shirt.
Cinna surely raided on somelxxiy’s trunk
for he committed a breach of good taste in
wearing black pants aud light coat, while
Flavius looked as though he was dressed for
a spring picnic.
The loss of the baggage did not seem to
be all of the misfortune. The rain came
down in a pattering sort of way upon tho
roof of the Academy and mode the night a
hideous one. It suited the second act very
well, however, and the sheet iron thunder
was in full accord with the rain on the tin roof
above. Then even the town clock seemed
to be in tho conspiracy against the play.
When the Roman clock struck the fatal
hour of 3, tho signal to the conspirators
that the time for the killing of Caesar
was drawing nigh, the city clock in the
court house adjoining the Academy was
striking nine, and the property man behind
the scene who was engaged in the solemn
task of tolling tho three strokes, was prob
ably unconscious of the fact that a Macon
clock was struggling to get, in nine strokes
to his three. Then the orchestra was com
pelled to add its mite to the general em
liarrassnjeiß The curtain went down at
the end of the second act for a moment to
allow Caesar time to get in a comfortable
position to die, and the orchestra,
without having been previously posted,
struck up in full tune, with every man
trying to drown the ceaseless patter on the
roof. The din of the instruments prevented
the leader from hearing the curtain liell,
aud up went the curtain showing the dead
Caesar, and tho orchestra playing the Pell
Mell medley as loud as horns and fiddlers
would allow it. But to tho credit of the
orchestra be it said, that as soon as it was
seen that there whs a death in the neighbor
hood, it lowered its tone as gradually as
Eissible until only the faintest sound of a
ir from the B( ml&nger March could lie
heard. Finally, it ceased and Ctesar died in
peace and his pin-stripe suit.
And yet through all this the audience
paid homage to the genius of Keene by
most respectful behavior, and by genuine
applause, recalling him frequently. It was
a most trying ordeal for the company, and
perhaps more trying for the ladies who
were compelled to appear in their
traveling costumes. Imagine “Portia” and
“Calphurnia” in block dresses, with pan
nier, etc! But the lack of a wardrobe did
not cause them to falter or to in any way
slight their w-ork, and the result was that
the performance in its entirety pleased the
audience. It is to be hoped that when Mr.
Keene again comes this way with the veter
an IVheeloek and the good company of last
night, the baggage will be on the same
train with them.
It is probable that Mr. Keene will sue the
railroad for damages, in that it failed to
bring down his baggage.
