eral other people narrowly escaped being

Taylor, familiarly called' Aunt Betsy,

-At. Macon Manager J. F. Hanson, of the
Bibb Manufacturing Company’s two cotton
mills, has lately put in a good deal of new
machinery. These mills have innde a record
of which the comiiany Ims a right to be
proud. There are about 460 hands employed,
all told, and the weekly pay-roll runs up to
about. f3,000. The hands are paid off every
Saturday and paid ir. cash, somethingdifl'cr
ent. from many mills where the store-check
system is in vogue. The daily output of
yarn from the 18,000 spindles amounts to
about 14,000 pounds, and thirty-five bnles of
cotton are used. Only once, for six w eeks
in 1880, during twelve years have th mills
been run on short, time. ’ Their markets are
the world at large. Maj. Hanson says the
demand is now very good.
Athens Banner- Watchman: In conver
sation with several prominent merchant#
vests relay they say that, trade is completely
Mocked by the merchants who buy oottou
>iing forced to give due billß for it. They
' Uim that is the fault of the cotton buyeiw
who rive their checks to the merchants and
i nen hold the cotton on speculation. The
penes sy that t hey have the money if the
puyer will ship their cotton and attach the
wait to bill of lading. This puts the cotton
in ipe hands of the banks and thfv are se
cuF a by this mode. There is oup f fling cer
byuthat this block is hurting trade in our
efty to a fearful extent, find something must
done at once, as it is not only hurtful to
trade but is keeping a great deal of cotton
| from coming pi the city. Tim blame lies
somewhere and something must be done.
A most distressing accident occurred four
milts south of Dalton Saturday. C. 31
Phelps, who moved to the comity from Vir
ginia, a few years since, lives there, and the
Western and Atlantic and the East Tennes
see railroads run parallel. Till' residence of
Mr. llielps is on the west side, his bam and
stables on the cast. His littfe lb-year-old
son had been to the barn, api returning,
was awaiting the passage of it north bound
freight train on the Western and Atlantic
road. So soon as it passed, with a joyful
spring of childhood, he darted across the
track and to the aide of the East Tennessee
track just as another freigtk on that road
came thundering along southward, the cross
beam of the pilot of the online striking hint
on the neck, Broke it, and uurlcd his lifeless
body several turds into the air. This oc
curred within fifty feet of the house.
At Albany Saturday nfcht a white man
from Worth county made a forcible en
trance into the room fit a negro woman,
Josephine Davis by name, and Uiou her re
fusing to admit him draw a pistol, remark
ing that he had killed no nigger and would
kill more if they l-esislrd him. The women
in the adjoining room went after the police,
and Officers Brooks ajid Kemps responded.
Tim house is on the tyt corner of Washing
ton and Pine streets, and easy of access.
The man was found sitting upon a mattress
on the floor. Aftcra short parley with the
officers lie drew his pistol from lieneath the
mattress and. with an oath, attempted to
use it upon them. As he rose Officer Brooks
felled him with a blow from his billy, and
as ho attempted t/> regain bis feet placed his
nippers upon his wrists, secured his revolver
and marched him off to jail. Ho was tried
before the AlaJtar’* Court, fined, and bound
over in the sum of £IOO to appear before
the County C-ourt at its next session. Mr.
Ford, ujxi'u one of whose plantations he is
manager, gave bond tor his appearance.
A story told by the Dahlonega Signal has
created indignation there. Oil the side of
the mountain, near Porter Springs, lived
two old women, one the mother and the
other the sister of William Spencer, a well
to-do-man of the county. He had refused
to care for them and they were tampers
upon the county, being cared for by a young
girl who lived with them in that lonely
placed. Old Mrs. Spencer, aged about bn,
is paralyzed and cannot move from a scat.
Mrs. Eliza Cain, who was her daughter,
aged about 50. was subjeet to epileptic (its,
and had several times before this fell into
the lire, and would have burned to death
hud not someone been present to save her.
Mrs. Cain went down to the wash
place on a small shallow branch, to
try to do some washing. She ap
peared to Lie in good health,
ami the voting girl who stays with the two
old women went over to a neighbor's house
for a short while. A young man happened
to pass along the narrow trail, and to bis
horror saw her lying in the branch, dead.
He lifted her out, and the neighbors were
notified, but it was no use. She was a mem
ber of the church, and always bore n spot
leas reputation. Deserted bv her brother,
who was able to take care of her, n patt|>er
upon the comity on the pitiable sum of 82 50
a month, it is likely that she courted death
in preference to her existence in such a
stab*.
At Atlanta the report of the Legislative
Committee on the charge* made against the
State asylum management ha* liecti made
public. The charges had been preferred by
Dr. Kenun. a member of the legislature
and formerly physician of the asylum. The
committee clears the asolutn manager-, of
blame, but i‘- severe on Kenan. The report
says. “YVe find that the trustees discharged
Dr. Kenan, the first assistant physician of
this institution, for sufficient causes, and we
indorse their action. If the evidence before
ns is credible, he was not a suitable person
lor so important a trust. From the evidence
submitted with the report we gather
the following: Dr. Mark Johnson testi
fied in answer to the question: ‘You
sav that There were serious charges against
Dr. Kenan as an officer of the institution
and as a man; and the charges were so' se
rious that the committee reporter! him to t he
Board of Trustees;’ ‘The charges were so
serious that his friends were unwilling to
attack them, and the mutter was turned
over to the Board of Trustees, and they dis
charged him at the first meet ng thereafter.
31y committee, after examining Hip evi
dence. entertained hut one opinion as to his
being guilty of criminal intimacy with some
of the attendants. 1 supported him in the
race for the Legislature l>eoaiise lie was an
anti-Prohihitionist. I did not know quite
as much about him then us 1 do now.’ J. D.
Case testified that Dr. Kenan’s character
was bad beyond question, and that if he had
auv object to attain he would not hesitate
to toll a lie.”
