6 GEORGIA ASP FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Failure at Marlotta Augusta's Boy Murderer Sent to the Chain-Gang for Life-A Man Accidentally Shoots His Wife at Lincolnton—The Judgment Against Ex-Gov. Bullock. GEORGIA. Rev. M. C. Irvin, of Alapaha, ha* ac cepted the pastoral care of the Sumner Bap tist church. Rive new brick building* are either started, or starting at Brunswick this week —two of these are residences, and three busi ness houses. Dr. A. T. Summerlin, dentist, of Dublin, while filling teeth for a customer, had a generator explode in his hands, and slightly burned his face and eyes. There is a preacher in Upson county who ha* married 111 couples, and has received in marriage fees s•’>. A hundred and ten paid him nothing, and one paid him $5. Charles Lusk, the unfortunate young mulder whose leg was crushed by a falling flask at the Rome foundry last week, has lost his limb, amputation proving unavoid able At Bell's mill, in Webster county, Satur day. the wife of George McNeal (who was formerly a Miss Alice Thornton! committed suicide by drowning herself. No cause is ass gned. Petitions are being circulated at Dublin for signatures asking the Ordinary to order an election on the question of bonding the county to build a public bridge across the Oconee river at that place. At Dublin Superior Court convened Mon day. his honor, Judge Charles C. Kibbe, presiding. There is a great deal of business before the court, this being the first session held since the January term, and it is prob able that it will hold for two weeks. J. Holliday, formerly of Paterson, N. J., but more recently of Virginia, is in Maconfor the purpose of establishing a tool-making shop, making lathes, etc. He guarantees that, if certain inducements are made, he will put, 50 men to work immediately. A little daughter of Mrs. Drennon, resid ing in the Fourth ward at Rome, while leading her younger sister along the street Monday, Dulled the baby's arm a little too abruptly and dislocated it. The little one screaming with pain first called attention to the injury. At Augusta, Tuesday, Charles Henry Locksley, a small negro boy, who stabbed and killed Mr. Mills Thomas near the Cen tral depot last July, was tried in the Supe rior Court and sentenced for a life term in the penitentiarv. He ls only 11 years of age and as black as the ace of spades. He received his sentence with indifference. Mrs. J. B. Miles, of Lincolnton, was acci dentally shot by Mr. Miles Tuesday, ft. is the same oft-repeated story. Mr. Miles was at, w ork on an old pistol, one chamber of which was loaded. The wound is in the left arm, just below the elbow. It was a “glancing” shot, inflicting only a flesh wound. Dr. Groves extracted the bullet and does not apprehend anything serious. At Marietta, the sensation is the reported failure of A. A. Fletcher & Cos., the largest grocery, provision and cotton firm in the •city. It is a fact that a large mortgage was filed Tuesday evening in favor of G. C. Bumap, a lianker, which, if not met by morning, was to be closed immediately, and parties in position to know, said that it would not oe met. Besides doing an im mense cotton buying business, Mr. Fletcher is also one of the proprietors of the Keaue saw House. Additional particulars have been received of the explosion at Knoxville. The mill was located one and a half miles north of Knoxville, and the boiler had been used for twenty years. Young 'Forrest Matthews, an excellent business man, was owner of the mill, and was the only white man killed. The names of the negroes are Henry Phelps and Hamp Richardson, employes at the mill. The engineer, whose name’could not be learned, was also colored, and was scalded until he cannot live. At Griffin Tuesday Sheriff Connell closed up the dry goods anti grocery house of J. C. King & Son under a mortgage held by the City national Bank on the slock of J. O. King. The cause of the failure is said to be the inability of Mr. King to collect the large sums due him for goods by his cus tomers. He did a largo credit business, and the failure of his customers to meet their notes and accounts promptly male it im possible for Mr. King to meet his obliga tions. The amount of the liabilities and assets of the bouse is unknown. In 1883 Gardner Foster obtained a judg ment in New York against ex-Gov. Bullock for $5,727 30. In 1885 Foster sued on this judgment in the Circuit Court of the United States for the Northern District of Georgia and recovered a judgment for the full amount, with SBOO interest. In August last, during the alsence of Gov. Bullock from Atlanta, garnishments were served on the Merchants' Bank, Lowry's Bank and the Atlanta Cotton Mills. Service on the last was made on a young man who was in charge of the cotton mills during Gov. Bul lock’s absence. The defendant moved to dismiss the return of service of this sum mons as insufficient. At Atlanta Tuesday Judge Newman denied the motion. Alpharetta Democrat: There is a colored presiding elder named Jackson, of Atlanta, preaching to the colored people of this place. He preached at the white Methodist church Sunday night, and we went out to hear him. His sermon was very good, and the singing by the colored people was splendid, ana was conducted in a different way from the usual manner of singing. It was com posed of two parts, the preacher carrying one part and the congregation the other. But the climax was reached when time for prayer came. The congregation all knelt except the preacher, who stood up. and all prayed aloud, men and women. It was a Babel of voices, and was strikingly peculiar, and quite different from any form of wor ship we have ever seen. Leary Courier: Mr. B. F. Wiuderweedle, of Milford, some time ago taught two stur geons in his trap in the Notchaway, which weighed seventy-six and seventy-eight pounds respectively, of which we learned and noticed. Mr Winderweedle recently received a letter from a man at Hardaway, which, besides many “cuss’ words, con tained a plain and emphatic assertion in the belief that Mr. Winderweedle had got off one of the bigg**t iish lies of the season. Mr. Winderweedle informed us that he can prove by competent witnesses that the fish weighed more than was stated, and further more that he will place the letter in the bands of the post office authorities, who will no doubt, if they catch the author, make him wish he had never doubted the veracity of Winderweedle. The letter was full of the vilest and most obscene language. Griffin News: It has been reported in this city for several days past that Mr. R. P. Tallman, a prominent merchant of Wood bury, had failed for SBO,OOO. A gentleman has called at Columbus Enquirer-Sun offico with a letter from Mr. Tallman, in which the report was emphatically denied. Mr. Tallman says the report was circulated by Driver & Smith's cotton buyers, and that he will institute a suit for heavy damages against them. Mr. Tallman went to New York about a week ago, and during liU absence Driver & Smith presented a claim against him, and demanded a settlement, knowing that his agents were not authorized to act in the matter. When they were so informed the firm, it is claimed, put the report in cir culation. Mr. Tallman was called home from New York to see his sick child, and knew nothing about the report until his re turn. Maud Jefferson, of Jesup, is a colored man of considerable notoriety. He delights in the pastime of drinking bad whisky and smoking mean cigars on Saturday after noons. Some days ago he imbibed a little too freely and became boisterous, and was taken in hand by the night policeman. Maud has a strange practice of making the wool just above his ear a match-box, and on I this occasion had a Rood supply of matches on hand. He resisted the officer and declined to go to the lockup. The officer stepped to one side, raised his club and struck .Maud a ; blow just above tpe ear. The matches were 1 ignited, and his wool caught on fire and I made a considerable blaze, and he fell over ! against the wall of a store. The night j wutchman thoueht lie had produced death ! and ignited the corpse, ami ran for his life, and as soon as he collected himself lie i tendered his resignation as a municipal of ficer. Messrs. O'Shaughnessy, Goodyear and I Kay, ask incorporation with their aasoci | elates into “The Brunswick Company," I with a capital of £5,000,000, whose business will be the sale and purchase of lands, manu facturing, loaning money on real estate, mining, dredging, etc., purchasing of stocks and I Kinds and the like. It is in short a financial scheme looking to the building up of Brunswick. This company will own as soon as thoroughly organized, the street railway, the Mi Hank property, which embraces nearly half the lots of the city, the controlling interest in the hotel, etc., etc. The company will own a large landed interest in the city, which they will develop on a brdad and compi'e heusive scale. They will not only improve this property themselves, but will sell to others at reasonable prices, that is to bona tide purchasers who will improve same— titles not perfected until buildings are up. John C. Rutherford, of Mm -on, with Lawyer IValker, will represent Wool folk if his fees are secured. Col. Rutherford states lie was absent from the State when the killing occurred, but that in a short interview with Woolfolk he was im pressed with the fact that lie could not have niado the statement unless he was an inno cent man. In this statement he accounts for every suspicious circumstance against him, and shows very clearly that he himself would have tieen killed had not his brother been aroused before lie was. His brother entered his father's room just before he did. and as his brother entered he was knocked down, then Tom ran and jumped out of the window and gave the alarm. He inot a negro soon after he jumped and tried to get him to return with him and render assist ance, and while talking with the negro both heard blows and screams in the house. A short while afterward they heard voices in the house and saw several parties leave. The clothes found in the well were his brother's clothes, and the washerwoman will so swear. The tracks in the blood wore barefoot tracks and were made by Tom and he so stahil that night, and after some of tiie neighbors had arrived he took a tow] of water and washed the blood from his feet and hands in their presence. CoL Ruther ford states his interview was a short one, but he was impressed with the fact, from a long experience as a criminal lawyer, that he could not have made the statement in the way and manner that lie did, had he been guilty. Tom exhibited much indigna tion and sorrow that the people should be lieve lie had killed his own father and those so nearly and dearly related to him. FLORIDA. The McPherson block at l’unta Gorda is going up with a jump. Puuta Gorda will soon be a town two miles wide by three long. Grape fruit is dropping from the trees at Oxford. The cause is a mystery. Several white frosts have been observed in the vicinity of St. Augustine during the week. Oysters are reported in full supply at Cedar Keys, and unusually good for this sea son of the year. At Bloomfield Tuesday a convention of people of Lake county “unanimously” nomi nated that place for county seat a-s a com promise. Louis Lehman, of Jacksonville, has been granted a [intent for arrangement of ar tesian wells and stinces connected therewith for actuating water works. C. B. Pendleton, editor of the Key West AV/it ator. has purchased six homing pigeons, and will establish a line between Tampa and Havana, touching at Key West. A preliminary survey will soon lie made of the proposed Coast Line railroad from •St. Augustine south to Daytona. It is said the road will be completed by Jan. 1, 1889. Haywood Carr (colored), who killed his paramour, Sal lie Nelson (colored) at Pensa cola, March 7, has been apprehended at New Orleans. He cut her throat with a knife and escaped. A kitten without mouth, ears or nose was recently burn at Key West. There was a single eye where the mouth should have been, and as the poor thing couldn't eat with its eye it died. It is said that the Thomasville, Tallahas see and Gulf railroad is negotiating for a steamer that will make about eighteen miles an hour to run between Apalachicola and Carrabelle and connect daily with the trains. The steamer Cumberland is now running between Braidentown and Pensacola, on which route she will continue until quaran tine is raised. Then she will run between Mobile and Tampa, touching at the Manatee river landings. The amount of money received by Reve nue Collector Price, of I'alatka, during October for licenses was $5,107 50, of which $0,405 goes to the State and $1,702 50 to the county. There has been very little trouble in collecting this tax. The murderer Cook, of Titusville, was before Judge Broome, in the Brevard county Circuit Court last Saturday, and ap pealed for a change of venue. The Judge granted the uppeal, and sent the case to Volusia couuty, to be heard Nov. 15. The Tallahassee City Council has con tracted with the Tallahassee Brush Electric Light Company to light the streets of Talla hassee for the term of five years. The hotels and stores will also use the light, and it will be used in the capitol during the session of the Legislature. Pullman Conductor Maj. D. Shefftall, of Savannah, on the Savannah, Florida and Western railway, left Jacksonville for Pensacola yesterday morning on “important business,” as he tolil the reporters. As Miss Kemper Fisher, of that, city, changed her name to Mrs. I). Shefftall yesterday, it is very important that he should be present. The Florida Fruit Exchange is busy pre paring for the fall business. The indications so far are good for the orange crop, al though many of the growers make the mis take of shipping green fruit. Their com parative statement, completed yesterday, showed that they had, from the commence ment of the season up to the present time, sent to market four times as many boxes as sent last year for the same period. ♦ The Ormond people seem to be going into stocks at a great rate. Not content with forming a stock company to build a bridge, they have now formed a Law and Order society in the shape of a stock company. Its capital is SIO,OOO and is not to he paid up except by assessments as wanted. The association will aim its gun at the unlawful selling of intoxicants, and also the soda fountains and prescriptions, when used as makeshifts to beat the law. Notwithstand ing the high tides Ormond intends to remain dry. At Tallahassee Tuesday, H. Bisbee Jr., appeared before the Supreme Court on the Jacksonville city charter case. Yesterday morning was set for the hearing of the ar guments of W. B. Young, who appears in ts'half of the County Commission' is The opinion prevails that the amendment to the charter having failed to provide the ma chinery of election and having annulled the origmal clause providing for the same, the charter is thereby fatally defective and no election can ever be held" under it. A decis ion cannot be reached by the court under ten days. A few days ago Mr. Gibson, at the Bank of Jacksonville, paid E. W. Gillen the money on a check that he held on the bank, and among which there was a $5 gold piece. Mr. Gillen received the money and went away. During the day he deposited the money in the office of Ambler, M.rvin & Stockton. After receiving the money the cashier thought one of the $5 pieces looked a little spurious, and after giving it a thor-‘ THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1887. ough test he returned the piece to Mr. Gil len. stating it was counterfeit. Mr. Gillen took the gokl coin and returned it to the Hank of Jacksonville with the alxne state ment. Mr. Qibaon redeemed the coin, and then sent it to the United States mint at New Orleans to satisfy the parties that it was not a counterfeit. The Bank of Jack | sonville has a letter from the mint saying I the coin in question was genuine, and they ! remit £4 95 in payment of same, the small deduction being made for the amount cut away by the cashier in trying to satisfy himself that the piece was not genuine. THE SUB-TROPICAL. Some of the Points in the Report to the Directors. The directors of the Sub-Tropical Expo sition met in executive session at Jackson ville Tuesday and submitted a report. The following are some of its points: The main building is nearly completed. AVe expect that it will be before Dec. 1. The open garden spaces within the build ing are graded and about ready for plant ing. Quite a number of tropical and semi tropical plants and trees are already planted. The construction of the central fountain has commenced. Excavation for the miniature lakes will Is' commenced as soon as the health authori ty's will permit. The Hernando, Citrus and Pasco building is nearly completed. Woven wire fencing •i feet high, has been contra ted for to en- j close the entire exposition grounds. This will require about 1,700 feet. COUNTY EXHIBITS. Space lias been reserved in the main building for the following counties: Bre vard, Dade, Clay. Volusia, Lake, Jefferson, Leon, Alachua. Marion, Sumter, Orange, Polk, Duval, Columbia, Manatee, DeSoto and St. John’s and West Florida Commissioners from the first five (5) of these have appeared here and their spaces have been marked out.

Spaces have also been assigned for the colored auxiliary exhibit, the Bahama ex hibit, the West India exhibit, the Florida and Havana tobacco exhibit, the Florida lier/umery exhibit; also, a number of other displays, especially those of the beet florists and horticulturists of Florida. ART GALLERY. We have accepted a very liberal propo sition made by H. Jay Smith to bring here from his exhibit at the Minneapolis Expo sition his collection of about 400 choice oil paintings. An art gallery will be provided for these, to which a separate admission fee will be charged, 10 per cent, of the receipts to be paid to the exposition. LIGHTING. We are negotiating with the electric light Companies to obtain the best offer for a plant with capacity for thirty arc and 100 incandescent lights, which will be ample for present purposes. HEATING. Wo have ordered the necessary boiler and steam piping to preserve in "the coldest weather a minimum temperature of 50” in the main building, with an average tem perature at other times of 70” to 75’. WATER SUPPLY. The city is about to lay a water main on Pine street, in front of the main building. We have authorized the laying of a smaller main from this under the floor, through the centre lengthwise of our main building, with ample connections for all purposes. STRANGE MEXICAN SUPERSTITION. A Spectre in Beautiful Guise Whose Kiss Invariably Proves Fatal. From the San Francisco Ohronicle. The Santa Cruz ghost, which is engross ing the attention of the citizens of that famous watering place by its midnight revelries, recalls a legend of San Juan, in the adjoining county, told the writer many years ago by a narrator no less credible than a good old Spanish priest, with whom the writer happened to be staying on a few days’ visit. One morning after breakfast I expressed a wish to stroll into the ancient graveyard attached to the old adobe church of that quaint little Mexican town. Theoid padre, with the kindness and courtesy characteris tic of the simple missionary fathers, at once acceded and accompanied the writer, re lating as we walked among the graves the brief history of some who lay quietly be neath. “Here,” he observed, with a quiet smile as he pointed to a grave in the middle of the cemetery, “here is a grave which the simple old Mexican families around here look upon with unusual interest, if not with actual awe.” “A murder!” “No, no! Something much stranger, 1 have tried to combat the idea, and while I would be addressing the people they would say, ‘Si, si, padre.’ They would assent to all I said, but the belief remained and does remain indelible. “A spirit,” he began, “is said to have ap peared to every one buried in that grave, and to warn the family whenever any of them is about to pass away. “Its appearance, which is generally made in the following manner, is believed to be uniformly fatal, being an oinen of death to those who are so unhappy as to meet with it. “When a funeral takes place the spirit is said to watch the person who remains last in the graveyard, over whom it possesses a fascinating influence. “If the jierson be a young man the spirit takes the shape of a fascinating female, in spires him with a charmed passion, and ex acts a promise that he will meet her at the graveyard a month from that day. This promise Is sealed with a kiss that communi cates a deadly taint to him who complies. “The spirit then disappears. No sooner does the person from whom it received the promise and the kiss pass the boundary- of the churchyard than he remembers the'his tory of tiie spectre. He sinks into despair and insanity, and dies. If, on the contrary, the spectre appears to a female, it assumes the form of a young man of exceeding elegance and beauty.” The padre showed me the grave of a young jierson about 18 years of age, who was said lour months before to have fallen a victim to it. “Ten months ago,” the father said, “a man gave the promise and the fatal kiss and consequently looked upon himself as lost. He took a fever and died, and was buried on the day appointed for the meeting, which was exactly a month after the fatal interview, “Incredible as it may appear, the friends of these two persons solemnly declared to me that the particulars of the interview were repeatedly detailed by the two persons without the slightest variation. “There are several cases of the same kind mentioned, but the two cases alluded to are the only ones that came within my personal knowledge. “It appears, however, that the spectre does not confine its operations to the grave yard only. There-have been instances men tioned of its appearance at weddings and social parties, where it never failed to secure its victims by dancing them into pleuritic fevers. ” On being questioned as to what he might think of such possible occurrences, the good lather simply smiled and shook his head.
