It is said that he has been urged to do this by many warm and personal friends throughout the IS Late. A mail dog invaded the domains of Arthur Wade, on Brier Creek, Scriven county, several days ago, and inser ed his teeth into a fine young pointer, and also a number of hogs, every one of which, when symptoms of hydrophobia began to appear, tne owner was "compelled to kill. The case of the State versus Thomas G, Woolfolk, charged with murder, will be taken up iu bibb Superior Court next Mon day.

At Atlanta Monday a suit was filed in the Superior Court for $33,000 damages against the Richmond and Danville Railroad Com pany. The suit is brought by 8. N. Dvke man. The plaintiff was seriously injured in the accident near Greers, on the Richmond and Danville. He sustained terrible inju ries about the spiue. and was otherwise hurt.

Eliza is now in jail awaiting a preliminary trial, which wiil be given her soon. When the members of the Macon City Council adjourned their caucus Monday night each Alderman took one of the Chi nese lanterns left over iroin the Davis illu mination and, lighting it, went down town. It was a novel sight to see the dignified Aldermen going through the streets with lighted lanterns in their hands. They were simply winding up the illumination," how ever. About forty years ago Janies Burkhalter, of Cochran, gave his bride, who is now a widow, a br ast-pin made of a $5 gold coin. A negro during last year stole the ornament and removed the pin and passed the coiti off as money. Last week suoh a coin was circulatinc in Cochran, and John R. Mar tin, Mrs. Burkha'ter's son-in-law, heard of it and felt, satisfied that it was the one above mentioned. He has had it traced up to J. J. Taylor, a merchant at Cochran, ‘ and he paid it to some merchant in Macon a day or two ago. Mrs. Burkhalter is anxious to regain it. Gov. Gordon has received a letter from W. McDonald, assistant in charge of fish culture, stating that the Commission of Fish and Fisheries would se.nd several thousand carps for stocking different river basins in Georgia, the distribution tc lie made after conference with the Governor and Commis sioner of Agriculture. Hou. J. T. Hender son, Commissioner of Agriculture, was no tified Monday that the fish car had started from Washington with 15,000 scale carp for distribution in the rivers, and a supply of carp for applicants in the State. The car probably reached Atlanta yesterday. Griffin Sun; Ttie Columbus Enquirer-Sun of Saturday prints a long account of the shooting by a Dr. A. C. Walker of his mulatto paramour in Montgomery, Ala., on tbe day previous, and states that he is a member of a Griffin family, and hail a lather and brother living here. This is a mistake. Years before Die vrar a Dr. A. C. Walker, a one-legged Northern man, came to Griffin, and practiced his profession for a short while, but soon left for other parte. This is possibly the same ninn, but if so, he has no relatives here, and is only remembered by a few of our oldest citizens. An affray which ma3 r terminate seriously for one of the parties, occurred on last Sun day at the house of Henry Davis, in Scriven county. The combatants ware M. J,. Kennedy and Dave Miller, and the caxus belli was an accusation inode against Miller by Kennedy in regard to the loss of some money, which he (Kennedy) had in a trunk while staying nt Miller's. Miller indig nantly resenting the insinuation against his honesty, went over to Davis’ home to de fend his good name, and, in endeavoring to attack Kennedy with a stick, was cut with a knife in the abdomen. He is lying iu a critical condition. At Cochran a negro boy tramp, about 12 years old, called n; tbe residence of O. A. Herrington, on Beech street, with the usual request for'•something to eat.” Mi's. Her rington told him to cut so much wood, and she would give him some breakfast. He cut some wood, and while the family were out of the house he slipped in ami stole from the bureau drawer in -Mrs. Pitts’ room $7 75 iu change, and a gold breastpin from Mrs. lloraford’s room. He decamped, and the -ast heard of him he was heading out up the railroad on a crosstie ticket toward Macon. Ho will be apt to be picked up, as Mr. Stokes, Mrs. Pitts’ brother, is after him. At Madison, Monday, Thomas Ham mond, a dry goods merchant, was attacked and had bis face pretty badly butt .-red by f/haries Bunldey. Mr. Hammond dis charged Buukley Saturday night, saying that he was incompetent for his place. Bunkley thought it wus treating him un justly to be discharged without notice, ani, after ,tendering the matter, determined to give ins former employer a whipping in or oer to get even. Bystanders s ‘parated the Parties before he got iu many blows. Bunk lay paid $5 in the Mayor’s court, and gave a SIOO bond to appear next March on the charge of assault and battery. He is of good family, and came to Madison from Union Point. Some good farming has been done near Cochran this year. Tax Collector E. A. Pol lock, on a one-horse farm, made 2,250 pounds of lint cotton on eleven and a half acres, 300 bushels of corn on fifteen acres, and enough ground peas and field peas to fatten thirty pork hogs, now ready to bo butch ered; and on another one-horse crop on the same place he made eight bales of cotton on fifteen acres, and 330 bushels of corn on six teen acres. He used 200 pounds of guano per acre on the cotton, and home-made fer tilizers on the corn, peas, potatoes, etc. Ho has brought his land up to this fertility in two years, and it is about an average of the pine land in this section. At Dallas M. C. Ferguson, a man with a wife and seven children, eloped with Nancy Brown, the 15-year-old daughter of James Brown, two weeks ago Inst Friday. Miss Brown's father is almost distracted over the affair. He is one of the loading farmers in the county. The runaways went to Hender son, Tex., where they were captured by Sheriff Rogers on a telegram from Sheriff Russell, of Dallas. Ten dajs ago Sheriff Russell lett for Henderson, armed with requisition papers, and Monday night they returned. He had Ferguson securely bound .from head to foot with a rope. Miss Brown followed the Sheriff without any trouble. The elopement has caused great excitement, and trouble was feared after Ferguson was locked up. As Thomas Stone, stonecutter, was walk ing with a friend ou the Central railroad on the east side of the river near Macon Sun day afternoon, his attention was drawn to a grave near the road and just beyond the Central pond, ou the left hand side. On making some inquiries concerning it he was startled at the answer made by some boys, who said that one evening during fair week some men dug the grave and buried a body there, but would not let them see it, running them off. Mr. Stone wa nuzzled at what he had seen and heard, and Monday wont to the police barracks and reported it. Ho told officer Chapman the facts above re lated. When Coroner Hodnott heard of it late Monday afternoon lie went across the river and made a search for it, but not knowing the location failed to find it. Griffin Sun: Dr. R. A. McDonald has something of an old curiosity shop in his dental office. Some of his old pictures look like relics of the past century, while ho has n walnut table whose age man know eth not. The most interesting thing he has is a little revolving iron chair, which is probably the only one of tbe kind in this country. It has an iron frame richly upholstered, and in place of rockers are arranged eight steel springs, which give tb~ chair a de ightfully cosy rocking motion. He bought it of the estate of the late Mr. Boxvdoin, father of oar present {(ostrnastor. Mr. Boxvdoin bought the chair more than thirty years ago. and used it while he was postmaster of Griffin, back in the forties or fifties. The chair is in a good state of preservation, and will do good service for years to come. FLORIDA. The river steamers are carrying heavy freights.

His funeral took place Tuesday afternoon, and wus at tendtfil by the colored fire companies of xvhich the deceased was a member. The S. B. White made her trial trip from Daytona to New Smyrna, and gave perfect satisfaction. Her inspection will take place before long. Drawing less thou two feet of water and xvith plenty of poxver to push her along, she i< eminently fitted for the service she wa-. built for. It *is said that Mr. Wil liam Jackson has refused sox'eral offers for her. The Heranndo County Commissioners were in session Monday and Tuesday. While sitting they performed the important duty of examining the tux hooks for the year 1887, and receiving tlie same from Assessor Wilson.

Hunter, at present engineer on the Fox, has in his pos session a curiosity in the sha|>e of a violin. Th? instrument is one of the best of tho kind, ntid probably one of the most ancient, in existence, yet in perfect order. It weighs but seven ounces, xvnich is also a remarkable feature in its history, and it was made axvay back in 1753, On the back of tbe instru THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 188/. ment, branded In the xvood, is the following inscription: "hi silris riva silui snavitrr \jai4imor funoano, 1733.” Is there one in the State older, or ax old, as this violin!

A fright ful accident occurred on Sunday night to a man by the name of William Heifer, who lives in Lincolnville, near St. Augustine. Heifer had been suffering se verely from neuralgic toothache, and had been for the past two days almost beside himself with pain. While his wife was at church he got out of bed and seated himsejf by the fireplace. Buddenly ho lost con sciousness and fell in the fire. Hoxv long he laid there no ono knows, but finally he got up, and totally unconscious of his move ments wandered out in the street shoeless and hatless. He was missed by his wife when she came home, and she found him on the street in a pitiful condition. His hair was burned to a crisp and one side of his face almost roasted, while his left hand was literally cooked, the finger rmils and skin having come entirely off. His burns were dressed ami he xvill probably recover. GHOSTLY WHISPERxNGS. Thrilling Experience in a Lonely Coun try Cottage. From the Americas (Go.) Republican. We learn that Dranesvilie, Marion coun ty, has a pretty little cottage, new and neat in appearance, that has been turned over to “tho spirits of the departed.” Monday a man who had lived in the house and had heard strange xvhisperings, mid felt electric shocks told us, with bated breath, of his experience in that house. He said: “You may not believe me, but just go out there and slay one night and you’ll be con vinei. I didn’t believe in ghosts nor spirits and don’t now, but there is certainly some queer sounds and impressions there. I was sitting on the veranda one afternoon when a perfect baliel of whispering broke forth, that startled me. 1 knew there was not a soul on the place, and got up, xvent through the house and looked all around. Not a soul could be seen, but tho xvhisper ing continued all around me. I went out to feed my horse and I could hear the same sounds all around me, and as I was corn, they seemed to come up ami try to whisper in my car. I didn’t like that and made some rude remarks, when I beard a rushing sound and felt a shock on my legs that drawed me right up. It was like a severe shock of electricity. I said: ‘Darn it, you can’t oust me that way. Come again.’ The next whack came across mv thighs, and it doubled me up—took every particle of life from me except breath and mind. I could not move, nor could I sec anything that struck me. A cold, clammy hand passed over me and the numb feeling left. I threw my horse some corn and left the stable. I went to the house, and, aftei eating my supper, went to bed. Well, that eternal xvhispering kept up. There was a big lot of dogs fight ing in the other room, and Knowing there was but one old dog on the place, I got out of bed, made a light and went iuto the room, but there xvas not a thing in there. The thing began to bo serious. I went back to bed when the xvhispering began again. I yelled: ‘What in the name of God do you "want? Who are you, anyhow?’ and then ex r erytliing was quiet. I xvent to sleep, probably ten minutes, when I felt something on my breast and on my feet. I moved to see if I could feel someone there, but could not. 1 arose, made a light, and as it was nearly 3 o’clock, and hearing someone talk ing and whispering by the chicken house, thought I would catch a thief, so I gatliei ed ‘my pistol and xvent out. As I went from the door the moon xvas shining nearly as bright as day, I could see there xvas no ono out there, anil then n most dia bolical and startling laugh rang through my room. I xvent doxvn and fed my horse again, quick as possible, in order to get off from the place. When I left there I came here, xvent out to Lumpkin and staid a month. Noxv if you or any one else who don’t believe this, xvant it proved, I’ll go with them to the house and stay with them all night. It shan't cost them anything to go there; but they’ll have to have nerve and a lot of it.” FAILED TO CONNECT. The Bridegroom Cometh at the 13th Hour an is Summarily Dismissed. From the Enterprise (Fla.) Herald. Enterprise and vicinity was all agog on Thursday morning by the announcement that a long expected wedding, which was to have occurred at Saulsville, a few miles east of this place, at 0:30 a. m., had been declared off by the betrothed lady. Mr. Harry Rhoades, formerly of this place, later of Titusville, and Miss Char lotte Sauls, of Saulsville, were the jiarties who intended that their lives should be a “link of sweetness long drawn out,’’ but the fates decreel otherwise. All nature smiled on this auspicious morn ing, and that any man, wheu his life was to be gladdened, should fail to appear on time ami claim the lady whom he had wooed and won with the' ardor that belongs to youth, is beyond the comprehension of all oxcept probably himself. At 6:3.) a in., the bright sun rose upon the assembled wedding guests, .the minister was at hand, and the expectant lady, who was to take upon herself the vows, “till death do us part,” awaited in her boudoir the coming of her Romeo. The minutes tied and still he came not, and the wedding guests possessed themselves of that uneasi ness which is the foreruner of disappoint ment while the love of the fair lady turned to anger. At last the one who was to have cast her lot with a man of unfaith ful promises, appeared upon the scene and with a sail, pa le face, in which the lineaments of determination were plainly marked, announced to the guests that there would be no wedding. The minister departed, whether with or without his fees it matters not, and many guests wended their way homeward discussing in exorable fate with fervor; some, however, stayed to sorrow with the would-be bride, and were rewarded by siting the man of her choice coming to the house at a gallop, three hours behind time. No excuses, no sighs, no persuasions, no looks of love could change tiie decision of the outraged feelings of Miss Sauls, and Mr. Rhoades took his departure believing that procrastination was not good for one’s soul, and feeling that his hope of happiness ban been nipped in the hud. The intended bridegroom had boon told by the minister whom he met at the depot, and who was to unite the two hearts that they might beat as one. that the wedding whs off, hut believ ing his powers of persuasion to be beyond the average, he waited upon his Duleinea with the result as above stated. “The course of true love never did run smooth."

Hiic uever suffers herself to be without it, MAKING BARRELS A New Scheme Which Is Worth Look ing at for Fun. From the Chicuao Herald You xvouldn’t think that anything new could bo written about such a homely >u> ject as a barrel, but a decidedly new depart ure is to bo chronicled. The barrel of com merce is made by splitting the log iuto bolls about 30 inches long. Tho l<oits ore placed iu a large vnt, subjected tonn intense steam heat for 12 hours, and then while hot are cut up into atux/is. After five or six months of air-drying tho staves are ready for the listing (or joining) machine. This process completed, the btavesare in proper condition for the cooper, xvho trusses them (arranges them in barrel form) and cuts the chine and croze, after which they are ready for heads and hoops. Shaving, planing and crazing machines are used in tho manufac ture of common barrels, and in each barrel there are Bi staves. The new barrel is made of two staves. In an establishment where they are manufactured this week I saxv nn ciiu log, 31 inches long and 24 inches in diameter, resting in a steam vat. A crane, operated by steam power, grappled the log and swung"it into position in the machine. This wonderful piece of mechanism clamps the log exactly in tbe center and immediate ly begins a motion of .30 revolution; to the minute. When the log commerce; to revolve in the embrace of tho machine a knife is fed directly on to the outside of the log,cutting off a continuous sheet the proper length and thickness of a stave. In this xvay the entire log is utilized as stave mat erial except about six inches of the core or heart, which is practically worthless. Un the opposite side of the cutting-knife, and revolving upon the surface of the log, are two cylinders, being held thereon by the same mechanism which feed; tiie knife to the log. One revolution of these cylinders measures a haif barrel of continuous and solid stave material. In the . surface of these cylinders is a knife, which is forced into the solid log, cutting off a sheet, xvhich fal Bonto a conveyor iu the perfect form of a half barrel. This half barrel, which has just dropped from the log, is completely chined, crozed and equalized. Its external form is superior to any work xvhich tbe most expert cooper can execute. It is mathematically "true,” The chining, and oz ing and equalizing have all been done by the same knife, and the perfected half barrel is tbe result of the single mechanical re\ rolu tion. The elm log referred to remained iu the machine s(f seconds, at the expiration of which time it hud been converted into 34 staves, or material for 17 barrels. The staves are dried, li ted (jointed), and then receive head and hoops; 220 barrels are made from 1,000 feet of log measure. By the old style of manufacture the maximum product is alioiit 50 barrels less. On tho old barrel, with 10 staves, 32 listings are re quired. Here only four listings Hre made. The sax ing iu this detail alone is great. As a labor-saving invention it represents an advance of 00 per cent, on the old method of manufacture. Barrels, naiL kegs, butter tuVis and jiails aro turned out at will xvith this wonderful machine. The inventor, a Michigan man, has had the idea germinat ing in his brain for over 20 years, but it xvas only during the present year that the mech anism xx'as perfected. MEDICAL,.
