6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. It Cost Residents of Brunswick $5,000 to See the President and the Fair Relics of a Past Century Which Are Owned in Various Parts of the State. GEORGIA. A merchant in Terrell is sueing the Cen tral railroad for $2 SO loss on freight. A fire company will possibly be organized on Rose Hill, Columbus, at an early date. Gainesville has shipped thousands of chickens to Atlanta during the past ten days. The cotton crop of Houston county this year will average about eigiit bales to tha "plow. Floyd couhtv won the $l,OOO prize at the Piedmont Exposition offered for the best county' exhibit. The town clock at Washington has been stopped once or twice this week by pigeons lighting on the hands. So many people went to the Piedmont Exposition Wednesday that all the stores were closed in some of the small towns in the Stab-. Work on the government building at Au gusta will be begun in January. The gov ernment has just received and paid $150,000 for its title to the lot. During the past ten years there havelieen only eight, losses from "fire in Washington. One mill and two residences were among the number, the other losses amounted to but little. W. F. Bragg, who is farming near Hay no villa, in Houston county, has made t his year 100 bales of cotton on a six mule farm—l6o acres cultivated in cotton. This is by no means a short crop of cotton. The wife of Walker Chandler, of Mor gan's district. Hall county, was delivered of three children, two boys and one girl, at one birth, on Thursday of last week. Mother and babes are all doing well. It is not positively known yet whether the Sumter county exhibit at Atlanta will be falcon to the State Fair or not. A great deal depends—well, in fact, it all depends on the outcome of the exhibit at the Piedmont Exposition. Garland Harmon, of Jenkinsburg, Butts county, had his hand badly lacerated ill a cotton gin a day or two ago. Drs. Peek ami Bryans dressed the wounds. We learn that he lost a portion of two fingers, besides being otherwise painfully torn to pieces. William Gunby, of Columbia comity, lost his pocketbook in Atlanta, containing a small sum of monoy r , his return ticket and about $l,OOO in good notes. Fred Smalley lost his watch acthe hands of a villainous pickpocket while in attendance upon the exposition. At Atlanta Mrs. Idoline Austell has be fun a suit for divorce from her husband, V. W. Austell. The papers have been filed with the Clerk of the Superior Court, in her petition the plaintiff asks for an absolute divorce, alleging drunken ness and cruel treatment. H. P. Alniand, who is at the head of the firm of Almand & Moon, is arranging to erect a first-class fertilizer manufactory at Jackson at an early day. The buildings will be located near the depot oil the side track, if satisfactory arrangements can be made with the railroad authorities for a lot. Albert G. Drane, an old Sumter county boy, who is now holding a $1,200 clerkship at Washington, not long ago was put to the test as to his fitness for the position. In a large class, on a civil service examination, he led the elass by making 9*l out of a pos sible 100, thereby gaining his present $1,200 place. For the next few days Governor Gordon will be very busy signing bills passed by the General Assembly. The constitution gives him five day's in which to consider bills after fhe Legislature lias adjourned, after the expiration of which time all bills passed become a law unless vetoed by the Governor. Nearly every weekly paper in the State is telling of men who were fleeced by' pick pockets at Atlanta during Tuesday and Wednesday. Several instances are also re corded of trains not stopping at stations where crowds of people with tickets were waiting, the trains being so full that there was not “room for one more.” , Pursuant to a call of a the President, the survivors of the Tenth Georgia regiment met at the court house at Atlanta Thursday and organized by electing by acclamation the President and Secretary. Gen. L. Mc laws and Gen. Alfred Cum ruing, being present and called on, each delivered a very pleasant address, intei-spersed with reminis cences of the war. Tobe Holmes, a colored man. of Perry, has worked five days of each week this year for T. D. Gurr, and one day of each week for himseif, cultivating thirty-five acres of land. He has made on this land four bales of cotton, averaging Ml pounds; 120 bushels of corn, 25 bushels of peas, and about 50 bushels of potatoes. Two bales of this cot ton is cleai- of all expenses, and Tobe does not owe a cent. H. C. Thaxton, the Tax Collector of Butts county, has in his possession a copper souvenir of the late Confederacy. It is about the size of a copper cent, and on one side is a Confederate flag in the centre and around it are the letters “Our Flag," and the date. IWt On the other side aro the words “If any one attempts to tear it down, shoot him on the spot,” with the words “Dixie'’ in the centre. Tom Kennedy, an old Confed, who knows ex-Presidoiit Davis very well, lives in Fort Valley. He was badly wounded, and in fact lay on the field for three days and was supposed to be dead. He finally re covered sufficiently to do guard duty and was stationed at President Davis’ residence, and says he spent three years in his back yard. Sir. Kennedy will try and get to Macon to see the President once more. • Mrs. Anna Winn, who lives about two miles north of Perry, now has in her posses sion a glass decanter and a china teacup that belonged to her grandfather fully 120 3'ears ago. The cup is one of a tea set of extra fine china that was purchased by Mrs. Winn’s grandfather. It is of peculiar shape, when compared with cups of modern de sign. Both of these articles have been suc cessively handed down from the original owner, and each has beer, occasionally used each year since first purchased. The following nominations were made Thursday by Governor Gordon, trans mitted to the Senate, and were confirnusl in executive session by that body. Hon J. I>ee McCreery was appointed Solicitor of the County Court of Macon county for the term of two years, beginning with the date of his appointment. Hon. Henry A. Roe buck was appointed County Judge of the Elbert County Court in place of Hon. Thomas C. Carlton, whose term has ex pired. Judge Roebuck’s term is for four years beginning with the date of his ap pointment. At Fort Gaines, Tuesday night, about 7 o’clock, Anderson Carter murdered his w-ife, Mary Carter, both colored. The al leged cause is infidelity. They had not lived together for some time. Anderson has lately been using his utmost endeavors to persuade Mary to return to him. but was unsuccessful. He stealthily approached a window bv which his wife was sitting, und literally blew off the upper portion of her head with the contents of a shotgun. The murderer was arrested and is now lodged in jail. The negroes are strongly in favor of lynching him. A wedding party accompanying N. B. Harrison, which started from Brunswick on the Hcssie for the Bapelo river Thursday night, had a romantic experience. They were obliged to take on a second pilot at I)anen, and then rail up the wrong river, and after some hours of running in the darkness, had to turn aboutand hunt a third pilot to bring them to their destination. It was midnight when they arrived at the resi de,noe of the bride, where a large numlier of Cueste were assembled, and tie ceremony was then performed. Rev. A. Clark, of Jesup, officiated. Brunswick Advertiser and Appeal: Four hundred and thirteen t ickets have been sold from Brunswick for Atlanta since the Ex position began. AVe have heard estimates nil the way from 100 to 1,000, but the above I figures are official. The railroad fare for j this army was $1,230. They each spent in ! Vtlantn at a very low estimate $3 per day, | and stayed three’days, inakiitg $0 a; iece, or | $6,717 for the whole number. Adding a few dollars for the over-extravagant and longer stays than above mentioned, we have a total of about $5,000 that it cost Brunswick to see the Piedmont. Two drununsrs were quietly riding back to Washington, one day last week, smoking their cigars and recounting the big bills of goods they sold to their friends out at Dau nurg, Delhi and other iilaces, when sudden ly there was a great commotion in the buggy. One man piled out on one side and the other man ou the other side. The racket startled the horse and he made up the road at break-neck speed, with the buggy smoking like a locomotive. After miming 200 yards the horse found an in viting place to graze, and the breathless traveling men finally got out their burning umbrellas and lap cloth, which were com pletely burned up. They say that here after they will be more careful with the cigars that are on fire. Gov. Gordon was in consultation Friday w ith Attorney General Anderson, in regard to the convict investigation. The confer ence between these two officials will last much longer than was at first supposed, questions having arisen that must be adju dicated before a decision can be reached. The Governor has familiarized himself with all the evidence, and no trouble is being experienced on that score, the consultation being understooil to lie solely aliout and upon legal questions. It is difficult to say just when a decision will be reached. When the question was asked his excellency Fri day, he was unable to give a definite an swer, but with reasonable certainty declared that he did not see how any conclusion could be arrived at before some time during the early part of next week. It will Iks remembered that when the se ries of bonds known as the Atlantic and Gulf bonds were issued, the actual time of issue was six months later than the date on the first coupons, and the coupon having matured before issue, it was detached, and the bonds with thirty-nine coupons attached were delivered. AVhen the bonds, or those with one coupon detached matured, the last six months’ interest was not represented by any coupon, and while it was undeniably due. Treasure; Hardeman refused to pay it for the reason that the absence of the cou pon would leave him w ithout u voucher. It was necessary that the General Assembly pass a resolution authorizing the Treasurer to pay the last six months’ interest, and Thursday the Senate passed the measure, thus completing the authority. Some of these bonds are held by Henry Clews, of New York, and the temporary delay in the payment of the interest has been used against the credit of the State in Wall street, lilt hapDily without effect. Clews and his have waged w ar against Georgia be cai>,e of the so-called repudiation of the fraudulent bonds issusd just after the war. FLORIDA. The health of Ocala was never better. The telephone service has been resumed at Longwood. Smyrna’s new $75,000 hotel will not be built this season. The implements have arrived for boring the artesian well at Ocala.

Tatum has purchased the entire interest of G. M. Holden in the Bartow .-Id ranee- Courier. Orange packing and slapping is getting to tie quite a brisk business in Plant City. There was many a crate shipped last week. The plans for the new Union depot at St. Augustine have just arrived, and the build ing of the structure will soon be com menced. Lieut. Benjamin G. Pursell, of the signal corps, has been ordered on an inspection tour of the telegraph stations of the service in Florida. J. F. A. Tufts, of Orlando, has been ap pointed a County Commissioner to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Andrew- Aulin. A Florida pension for service in the Mex ican war lias been granted to Hermann AVeissbred, of Tampa, and an increase to Nicholas Baggott. Toledo & Cos., are building a factory and a large number of tenement houses on White street at Key AVest. The work on them is well advanced. Mr. Hly’s store at Lady Lake was robbed last week of S.IOO worth of goods. It is said that two negroes did the burglary. The authorities are after them. The steamer Pyles, on Panasoffkee, is now making regular trips on that hike, the Outlet and the A\’ithlacoochee river. She is owned by Capt. Sam Pyles of Oconee. At Gainesville five prisoners escaped from jail about 6 o’clock Friday evening by filing off some bolts aud making ropes of their blankets. One was recaptured. The schooner Berg, Capt. R. A. Sanchez, and Pearl, Capt. M. J. Christopher, have arrived from Philadelphia to ply between St. Augustine and the Bahamas. The public school at Ocala has now 131 scholars with 5 teachers; the Misses Clem ents and Manly 26 scholars, and Miss Cohen and Prof. Parker have each a private school. There is an alligator over three feet long in Agnew’s pond, at Ocala, that conies by calling, and eats three times a day out of the hands of his owner. He is being easily trained. At Ocala, A. E. AA’aterman has com menced to arrange for the electric light system. The wires are to lie erected oh cypress poles, and the engine w-ill be located at his residence, near the city-. A. O. Millard, at Enterprise, has secured his license, and will sell liquor until Sept. 30, 188$, no matter what the result of the election may lie. T. E. Savage is trying, with every prospect of success, to establish a saloon at DeLeon Springs. Ekonlokhatchee bridge on the Lake Jessup, Chuluota and Fort Christmas wagon road was reported to be afloat last Monday morning at. un estimated height of four feet above its orignal position, which rendered it of no value to the traveling public. At Palutka a movement is on foot to call a mass meeting of citizens to urge the insti tution of a quarantine against Jacksonville tuid other jmints which are maintaining what is regarded at Palatka as a sansoless and injurious prohibition against travel and commerce in the State. At Dade City Pompey Gainer, the negro arrested for false swearing and illegal vot ing on Oct 10, was arraigned and trier! on Saturday, Oct. 15, before Judge Thrasher. The State failed to establish the charges and the prisoner was discharged, the costs being taxed against the prosecutor. Montieelio Constitution: Thirty cents a pound should l>e an inducement to all far mers to devote a considerable area of land to the cultivation of tobacco next season.

Barnes, State Comptroller, now convalescent after his protracted and serious illness, left Tallahassee a weak ago for West Florida to spend a few weeks at Marianna, his former luuna. lieu. Barn os THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1887. is very feeble, and makes this trip in accord ance with instructions from his physician, who says he must have a change and a few weeks rest. John J. E. Poe, one of the English resi dents at Lane Park, beat his former records hist Friday by swimming across Lake Har ris from the wharf at Kane Park to the Florida Southern landing at Ixssburg, a distance of eight miles. He was w ashed a good way out of his course by- the rough ness of the wate . which continually washed over the side of the boat that accompanied him. Carrabelle now numbers 200 voters. As to the healthfulness of the town, it may be noted that tliere has been but one deatn in ten months, und that was in February last, when a very old man, and a consumptive at that, passed over to the great majority. Upon inquiry it is learned that there is not a single case of siekness either within the town limits or among the laborere cn the railroad work. The Jacksonville Times-Union issues a 24 page trade edition, which is a handsome sjiecimen of typographical work, full of interest iug facts and figures about Florida, aud in addition contains an immense amount of advertising matter, which at once be speaks the enterprise and thrift of the busi ness community, and shows that yellow fever is a dead dog in the pit, from a com mercial standpoint. The sale of unclaimed goods by the South Florida railroad was continued by Capt. T. AA'. Shine, at Orlando, AA'ednesday, and up to noon the receipt* amounted to about SBOO. G. AV. Biddell was the fortunate pur chaser for the sum of $4, at the sale, of an elegant set of telegraph instruments. The instruments are complete with batteries, etc., and were intended for a line from Tampa to Punta Gorda. A* the mail and passenger train on the Savannah, Florida and AVestern railway struck the switch at Baker’s Mill, five miles north of Jasper, on Monday night last, the engine and forward oars jumped over all right, but the passenger coaches were thrown from the track. On stopping the train it was found that a piece ol iron had been forced between the rails at the switch so as to cause the derailment. The work wa* done by a party who knew just what to do to accomplish a wreck. J. J. Vaughn was arrested at Key AVest Monday cn a charge of assault with intent to commit murder on AA'illiam Parks. It appears that the parties were playing bil liards at Sweeny’s saloon, got into an alter cation when Vaughn attacked Parks with a chisel. The Sheriff was on hand, and with some difficulty arrested \ r aughu and locked him up. After his arrest and incarceration he made an attack with a small knife on the prisoners in jail. Vaughn is said to be a desperate character, having killed a man in Kissimmee City last year. The City Council of Fernandina met AA'ednesday evening. Owing to the absence of the electric light agent, and as the street railway- petitioners asked further time, these two projects were laid over till the next meeting. The Council proceeded to elect J. H. Prescott to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Councilman AA'andell, from AVard Two. The clerk read a report of the total appropriations for the 3’ear, amounting to $12,200. The amount of expenditures for the first quarter is but $1,964 The city finances are in an excel lent condition. At Key AA'est Monday a desperate char acter known a* Arturo I,agabura was shot perhaps fatally by Frank Someillan, his brother-in-law,inself-defense. Lagabura was married a few years ago to one of Someil lan’s daughters. Since they have been living in Key AVest he has neglected his wife and has been remonstrated with by his brother in-law, Frank. Monday he wentjto the house occupied by his wife, and her brother Frank ordered him out. Lagabura drew a pistol and laid in wait behind a door, pistol in hand, until Frank came from upstaii-s. Frank, by some means, discovered the fact and shot him. At Fomandina, Friday, the trial of Otis T. Terry alias Harold Davenport, formerly well known in Jacksonville, took place. The jury wa* out less than five minutes, and brought in a verdict of “not guilty-.” Mr. Terry is a free man again after five months incarceration in the Nassau county jail. Terry, or Davenport, was arrested at King's Ferry- last June, on the charge of attempt ing to steal a team of horses, which he had in nis possession, and which belonged to G. FA Avery, a liveryman in F'ernandina, from whom ho hail hired them for a short time. It was believed at the time that he was en deavoring to get over the State line into Georgia and would dispose of the team, hence his arrest. Not being able to procure bail, he has remained in jail till tried. He convinced the jury that he was informed that he could easily drive to Bt. Mary’s, and was on his way there on legitimate business when arrested. DRESSING THE HAIR. Some Points About it Worth Know ing. New York, Oct. IS.—The question of dressing the hair becomingly is one that agitates many feminine breasts and is un derstood by comparatively few women. The idea of adopting a certain style of coif fure merely because it happens tc be the fashion is ridiculous. There should tie no such thing as fashion in this important mat ter. A woman ought to dress her iiair accord ing to her face, but in nine cases out of ten this is precisely what she does not do. Fixed rules cannot of course be laid down as to the proper method of procedure in hair-dressing,but there are several general precepts that may be followed by young and old with impunity. For instance, a long, narrow fate demands that the hair be somewhat puffed at the sides so that a pro portion he niAintuined. A contrary course should be observed if the countenance be ronnd and full. Nothing can be more ill adapted to a short, fat face than bushy curls surrounded it. Yet fat women nearly al ways arrange their hair in curls and puffs exaggerated to a degree corresponding to the umount of adjacent adipoise tissue. A slight crimping of the hair relieves other wise severe outlines and is always becom ing; but there is a great difference between soft waves and brushy curls. Above all things hold in abject adhorrence that terri ble and hideous article known as a “front." There never was a false front, wig or semi wig that did not by its very appearance proclaim its true name to the world. To mistake a false front for the wearer's own hair is just as possible as to mistake a wooden leg or a glass eye for real flesh and blood. A false front is a glaring fraud to which no self-respecting woman will lend herself. If she has the misfortune to be bald let her buy an entire wig and make no secret of its possession. But to deiiberutelv fasten back her own locks to pin upon her forehead a stiff, ungainly row of curls or bangs cut from somebody else's bead constitute 1 - an ex hibitipn of liad taste that amounts almost to a crime. The greatest beauty would be heavily weighed by a false frout, while to an ugly woman it is a millstone.
