He leaves his property to the school in the Pan Handle district of Taylor county. Maj'or Mott, of EUaville, had to give an obstreperous citizen a thrashing one day last week to quiet him down. The citizen was spoiling for a fight, and tackled the Mayor uuder some fancied wrong, and the plucky little Mayor had to be pulled off. They were tried before the Board of Aider men, who affirmed the Mayor’s decision, and the citizen was fined as well as putu meled. Jim Patton and Jesse Wright were im prisoned at Franklin last week for assault and battery. They were at once recognized as the negro rioters in the July escapade in Lafayette, Ala., and will ho detained incase of a settlement of their difficulty at Frank lin. Sheriff Strozicr, who received a severe blow on the head during the melee bv Pat ton, was in Franklin Wednesday and identi fied the negroes. The Supreme Court of Georgia will soon be called to review a case from Habersham county, in which the line between that county and Rabun is involved. The case of Rabun county vs. Habersham county was tried in Habersham Superior Court in Sep tember, 1888, and a verdict rendered for the defendant. Chief Justice Bleckley, having been the counsel for Rabun county, will be disqualified for presiding next week. His declaration in the case is full, minute and graphic, Farris Jo' ns, a prosperous farmer of Texas district, Heard county, was brought to Franklin Sunday violently insane. Be fore his arrest by neighbors, he literally tore up his home, breaking most of his wife’s dishes, and a good deal of furniture. Ho has been in bad heaiih for some time and liad gotten considerably behind financially. Before be had sufficiently recovered he overworked himseif in the attempt to save his wasti gcrop. This, it is thought, caused his insanity. He left Tuesday morning for the asylum. At Way cross, a few nights ago, a ger.t’e man’s calf got out of the lot aud strived off. Sunday morning, bright and early, th • young man of the household got up on 1 started out to hunt for it. About S o’clock he came up with what he supposed to be his calf, and after chasing it around about ail hour, he succeeded in getting it into the lot, where, much to his chagrin, he found that it was not his calf at aU, at all, but that he had tired himself out driving another man’s calf into his lot. The Synod of Georgia will meet iu the Presbyterian church at Rome to-morroiv night at 7 o’clock. Re v C. IV. Lane, D. D., oi Athens, will preach the opening sermon. The body will remain in session till after Sabbath, and services will lie held each night during tho week. The synod is the largest Pro .byterian body in the State. It includes the five presbyteries of Athens, At lanta, Augusta, Cherokee and Macon, and has a total membership of nearly 800, but perhaps not more than 100 delegates will lie in attendance. Readers of the News remember the ex plosion of a boiler at a saw mill in Craw ford county, near Knoxville, aud in which young Mathews lost his life and a negro was blown to pieces. CoL Ira Jennings was in Macon Saturday, and reported that this negro’s head was entirely blown off, and one of his legs was also blown off and has never been foqjid, and his liver was blown out and lodged in the top of a tree 25 feet high. The other negro who was so badly scalded at the time, is much better, and the physicians think he will soon be able to go about his work. At the court house at Columbus Saturdav a party of gentlemen were discussing the best way to keep the buzzards from roosting in the trees in tha court house yard. Master Johnnie Burrus said that lie thought the best way to do it would be to kill them. Sergt. 5\ att laughingly told Johnnie that he would give him 25c. apiece for all lie killed. Just then a buzzard sailed bv, ami Johnnie threw a rock at him. The missile went straight and hard, and his buzzardship came to the ground as dead as a door naif Johnnie got his auurter, but was requested not to throw any more. Intelligence reached Woodbury Saturday of a very serious difficulty which occurred near Chalybeate Springs Friday evening be tween John Mitchell and William Phelps. The dispute arose about some cotton, when Phelps gave Mitchell the lie. Mitchell pro ceed to attack Phelps and was knocked b-vk by Phelps with a stick, and upon steadying bqnself he (Mitchell) drew a revolver and fired two or three shots at Phelps, one ball taking effect in his left breast, and passed almost through his body, and was extracted from his back by Dr. Campbell. Phelps is seriously if not fatally wounded. Pink Bowen, an orderly, well-behaved colored woman, wife of Elbert Bowen, died at her home near Gray's station on Nov. 16. Her first husband, Butler Graves, killed m a barroom in 1888, was said to have been the taliest man ever buried in Macon, and was noted, while living, for possessing almost herculean strength. He was porter at Smith & Iverson's when killed. When the measure for his coffin was brought to undertaker J. J. Clay, the latter thought it was a jest, for the stick reached almost to the ceiling. When assured there was no joke in it his eyes bulged out on stems, and be was figuratively paralyzed. Jack Rivers, a young farmer living near Arlington, was suddenly killed about four miles east of there Friday. He had been to Williamsburg and left i'or home to return by the place of his uncle, William Rivers. When the mule walked up to Mr. Rivers’ with the buggy, young Rivers was found dangling behind the mule with liis keiul hitched in the shaf ts and his neck broken and greatly stretched. He was unmarried, but leaves a number of little brothers and sisters who have been cared for by him since the death of their parents, several years ago. He was possessed of some noble qualities, and the faithful manner in which ho filled his dead father’s place to his little orphan sisters and brothers was truly commend able. The Etna iron furnace in Floyd county, it is said, will be put in operation'next spring. It is a charcoal cold blast furnace, aud is noted for the excellent quality of its pig iron. For several years previous to shutting down it* product was used by the Pullman car company, the iron being regard'd as very superior for car wheels. The Etna property is situated in the southwest corner oi Floyd county, aud partly lies in Polk county. The property is owned Uv (Jol. D. B. Hamilton, and consists of 8,000 acres of fine mineral and heavily timbered lands. Capt. John E. Stillwell says that the iron ore is as fine as any in the country. The oro is being shipped Nortli anti West, and to Anniston. A charter has been applied for under which the operations will be resumed. Capt. H. T. Ross, tho present Ordinary and Clerk of Jonos county, was first elected to the office January, 18(12, and served as such until the present ti ne, e.xcept about five months during Radical ruie, when tho then incumbent absconded, and Judge Ross was re-elected, anti has held the office unin terruptedly since of Clerk and Ordinary, Ho was once temporarily removed by a mili tary Governor for being a Democrat,but held on to the reins and was reinstated by Gen. Terry, a true soldier and patriot of the United States army. Cant. Ross is now using a “criminal docket” which was purchased and put into use August, 1817 —has been used continuously for criminal cases up to the present and will last for ton or fifteen years more, as it is in good condition mid remarkably well preserved. Every one almost who has heard of .Judge John D. Branson, of Kingston, knows that be has been afflicted with a terrible cancer on his lip and chin for nearly three years. Up to last June he was able to go about and attend to his business affairs, but since then he has been confined to his home, and for the past two montus to his bed. The phy sician, his family and friends had given him up to die. The cancer hud eaten Lis lip and chin and the roots of his teeth can be plain ly seen. But since last week Judge Bran son has been rapidly getting well. A phy sician has been found who makesasjieciaity of cancer treatment and uuder his ministra tions the cancer is last disappearing. Dr. Waid, of North Carolina, is the name of tiie physician, and ho says that there is not a shadow of a doubt, but that on next Sun day when he applies the cancer plaster the cancer will come out root and branch. Rome Tribune: A certain gay and giddy young society man of Rome went out riding not long since with a fair young equestri enne of a leading avenue. In course of conversation they touched upon the leading subject of the dnv—the Anarchists. He mentioned to his fair companion, in a care less sort of way, that he hud been North at school and had heard and read of a family bv the name of Anarchist, who, for some crime, he did not know what, were being tried. He told her that there were seven of them —the old man, Spies, Lingg, Fischer, Schwab, Engel and Fichlen, and that the old man and two of his sons were hanged, two of the other brothers sent to the penitentiary, and the last one commit ted suicide in jail. He said it was bad enough to hang the sons, but to hang a preacher, and an old ma , at that, as they did Farson Anarchist, was too horrible to contemplate. When AV. M. Lipscomb approached the jail at Franklin Wednesday morning, to his surprise, the thievish AA’oody was gone. He had escaped through un opening in the floor and passed out at the recently disabled rear door of the lower cells, it was readily discovered that lie had help from tie out side. At the bottom of the outer door there is an opening, burned only n few weeks ago by other escaping prisoners. Into this too assisting party crawled, pried open tho wooden door and broke the lock of the grate door. It was then quite an easy matter to escape. The rocks in the opening in the second floor recently made by l>it Bcott were pushed away and the prisoner had nothing to do but to squeeze out. Poinu McKenley, the negro occupying the cell with Woody, refused to leave the jail, and told tln> tale of the esca|ie. AVoody was as sisted by George Houston, himself a noto rious juil bird. Col. W. 3. Lowe, President of Peniten tiary Company No. 2. was seen at Atlanta Saturday, and asked about the fine imposed by Gov. Gordon upon the lessees for \ :o ! s tion of the lease contract. Cos). Lowe stated that there had not been any meeting of the lessees since the imposition of tun fine, and he could not speak officially; but as far as No. 2 was concerned, bo holding 87L* per cent, of tiie stock of that company, he thought he could speak. The fine, or his part of it, would be paid, but the payment would be made under written protest. Col. Lowe declaring tout the testimony clearly showed that ho was in no way responsible for the whipping ut Bingham’s camp. Bingham, the whipping boss, was an ap pointee of Capt. T. J. James, whose part of the tine would pot exceed S2OB, while Col. Lowe, holding a much larger interest, and in no way concerned in Bingham's appoint ment, would have to pay about #2,800. Col. Lowe thought that all the lessees would prompt!' meet their part. The Messenger, published at St. Andrews Bay, Fla., tells of a project t hat is on fin* to cut a can il from tho head waters of We topo creek, a distance of eight mil#*, to Uiii pola river. The Opelika Democrat not s Ihe fact and says: Such an enterprise would givo Columbus, Ga., a direct water commu tion to this beautiful section of ike guif coast, which would not only greatly in crease her wholesale trade and open up a large area of heavy pme and cypress tim bered lands, but would also put her in di rect communication with that PJvlen of Florida,” St. Andrews Bay, who with her three beautiful sheets of water extending n distance of ninety miles, in and around the western portion of Florida, would open up to the world one of the greatest, summer and winter resorts in the south. It is nat ural to suppose that the scheme would lie profitable to all concerned, mid Columbus can il! ufford to let such im opportunity slip as will enable her to control tae trade which now goes to Pensacola. FLORIDA. Over 1,000 quails have been bagged by hunters around and about Green Cove dur ing the present month. Mr. Black, proprietor of the Green Cove Livery (Stable, has sold his outfit of horses and buggies to IV. J. Wilson C. T. Williams, the projector of a large hotel at Oak Hill, has ordered 80,000 feci of lumber and 24,000 shingles from the Glen coe Saw Mill. The buoy tender Laurel left Key West Thursday for service along the coast. She will do temporary work only, and supply the light houses with stores. The organization of the Seville Fire Com pany is heartily indorsed by tho Seville Company, who no doubt will aid it in every possible way to success. At Jacksonville George Bangs has been in dicted by the grand jury for tiie murder of Col. .Mac Williams. A man named Thomas has boon indicted as accessory. Tin outlook for visitors aud investors at •Seville this winter is better than ever tie fore. Applications for rooms at Hotel Se ville wa: rant u full houso this season. A sou of IV. F. Braunen, living about six miles south of Live Oak, was caught in a sugar mill and had ids bond painfully though not dangerously injured one day last week. The following ticket has been nominated at Lakeland: Mayor, N. B. Bowyer; Clerk, H. J. Drane; Marshal, H. I). Ballard; As sossor, J. G. MeCuskey; Councilman, John A. Youmans, T. E. Moody, 1 IV. Whit comb, D. 11. Hlone Capt, C. SI. Bird, chief engineer of tho Florida Coast Line and Transportation Company, resigned Friday and left Satur day tor his home in Wilmington, Del. The steamer Denny owned by tho company, at present, lies at J. H. Niver’s dock at Day tona. Last .June a young lady from Columbia county canvassed Jasper for an illustrated book ranging in price from $8 to $7 per copy. Although it was her first work in that line, in a day and u half she sold s6l worth, aud, best of ail, delivered them and collected the money last week. Abli Stephen*, n negro gambler, was ar rested at Live Oak last Tuesday evening on a charge of having robbed a drunken white man of $25 in money, lie was taken before His Honor Judge Phil lips, who ordered him placed in tiie county juil, but while waiting for tho jail keys he broke loose from the deputy Sheriff who had him in charge and made his escupe, aud has uot been recap tured, THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1887. Avery ridiculous scene was enacted oi Railroad avenue, at Jasper, a day or two ago when Jeff Baker (colored), whoae mind is certainly unbalanced, ran after a fast going train, wildly gesticulating and talk ing with his lips and seemingly the whole centre of ids face protruding and contorted to a most remarkable degree. Keeping up the race for nearly a half mile, he finally rushed off the track, and returned to town after a while. Orange City Times: It would notbeamiss and would probably do good if the present grand jury, now in session at Enterprise, would investigate tho methods of the board ing house keepers of Enterprise. The town has no hotel open, and it does seem that somo of these boarding houses have a method that is systematic in swindling a man out of 50c. for a so-called dinner that a nice sandwich would lie far preferable. It is not very tempting to sit liefore a dinner consisting' mostly of toothpicks and water, neither is it a very good advertisement for Enterprise to keep the county seat. The most expendvo buildings now in process of erection in St. Augustine, some of which ure nearing completion, are: Hotol Ponce de Loon, $2,TOO,000; Alcazar, #1,T)00,- 000; (’ossa Monica, 4300,000; Methodist Episcopal church, 440,000; Old Spanish Ca thedral, 425,000; residence of J, H. Borden, $40,000; residence of J. T. Dismukes, $20,- 000; Capt. Vaill’s block, $15,000; Mattson’s bakery, $12,000; Misson’s double store, $lO,- 000, aggregating $5,862,000. The above fig ures arc estimates from the best available data, and cannot be far out of the way. A large number of less expensive buildings are now going up, and it is believed that the grand total for the year will exceed in valua tion over $4,000,000. At Pensacola, fire was discovered in the rear of the residence of L. M. Merritt, on North Bazlin street Friday night at 11:45 o'clock. Though not literally reduced to ashes, the house is a total wreck. It was a frame structure, and tho flames had ad vanced so far when discovered that it was only with tlie greatest effort that Mr. Merritt moved his several small children and his old aunt, (08 years old) from the second story. The fire is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary, as there had been no tiro in that portion of the houso where the flames originated since 3 o'clock of yesterday afternoon. Only a few articles of furniture and clothing wero saved. The house and furniture wero only partially insured. Chapter 3,711, arts of 18S7. provides ttat nil dentists of this Btato slinH file with the Clerk of the Court in the counties in which they reside, certiticotes which nre to he re corded. and a board was appointed to ex amine the credentials of all dentists com ng into the State after the passage of the act. This law requires that the dentists of the State must have their certificates recorded at the Clerk s office, in the counties in which they practice, lice. 7, which is the date of the expiration of the time fixed. Those dentists who have not already done so should npr.lv to the Secretary of the board, I)r. Duff Post, of Tampa, for certificates, and in order to save the deity they should accompany their applications for the same with the proof of the fact that they were practicing in their respective counties at the date of the passage of the bill. Hernando A'etes: As Mr. Pleas Evans was riding along in the pines near Capt. Tucker's, lus horse shied, and, looking around for the cause, )Ir. Evans discovered a large hear sitting upon his haunches look ing at him. It was but the work of a mo ment to turn his horse’s head for his bear ship, and the fun began. Mr. Evans suc ceeded in cutting the 1 hear off from the ham mock, but every time the horse would get too close the bear would stop, and then it was Mr. Evans’ turn to get out of the way. By dint of hard driving the bear was forced to take a tree on Mr. Davis’ place, and that gentleman come down in answer to Mr. Evans’ call and shot it. After being shot, the bear foil out and ran übout 100 yards, when it dropped dead. Those who saw tlie animal estimated the weight at about 350 pounds. Mr. Evans was coming in to at tend the County Court, and consequently was without bis gun. Altoona was visited by a fire Saturday night, that for two long hours seemed cer tain to blot out tho business buildings and depot, but bv prompt and heroic work, tho tiro wat confined to the starting place. 11. (~ Hopson & Cos. occupied a large frame building between the depot and post office, and at It o’clock p. m.. the noise of break ing g,u-s in the front doors attracted atten tion, when the building was discovered on fire and beyond cont 01. Citi zens responded promptly, an i, although several build ngs caugnt fire from tho intense heat they wore saved. The night was calm, and a vaonnt lot on either side was nil that prevented a terrible disas ter, as the busines.; parts on cither side are more dense. The origin of the lire is a mystery. The loss is fully $6,000, ami the in surance *l,OOO. The Pro valence-Washing ton, of Providence, it I.; Hope, of New Orleans, and Hartford, of Hartford, Conn., are tho companies represented. Mr. Hopson will rebuild at onco. Orange City 'Times: Mias Lillie Mae Taylor, daughter of Mr. J. Taylor, owner of Deerfoot landing, committed suicide at her father's residence Monday night of this week by taking poison. She bad just recov ered from a rather protracted spell of fever, and, with the exception of weakness, was in her usual health. On Monday evening she spout an hour or so in her father’s room reading “In tho Toils,”-and about 8 o’clock went up to her room, Mr. and Mrs. Taylor retiring shortly afterward. The next morn ing she did not make her appearance as usual, and her father went up to her room, but found the door locked. He knocked, but no answer came. He gained entrance through a door lending from her r om to an adjoining one, and found her lying cold on tho bed, with the book she was reading the evening before by her side, showing that her rash act was done deliberately and calmly. Nux vomica was found in the room, and having taken the drug to end her life, put her night clothes on, laid down on her beii, and road until the poison she had taken began to do its fatal work. In the room was found a beautifully written note addressed to her father, directing as to the dress to put on her, and naming certain jewelry and clothes of her's she desired to be sent to schoolmates named in the note. She began the note picturing the dark side of life, with nothing bright for tho future. Sho was 20 years ot age, and hud linen well educated, tier remains were laid to rest in Berosford C moterv Wednesday morning, the Rev. 8. V. McDuffee, of this place, con ducting the funeral Services. Work was begun on Monday upon the foundation for the new tower of the old Spanish Cathedral at St. Augustine. This Imposing monument will stand next to tiie Bishop's residence and 15 foot from the cathedral wall, connected therewith by en closed hallways two stories high, back of which there will be rooms on each floor 15x18 feet. The dimensions of the tower at tho base will bo 18x18 feet,. Height of tower 125 feet, comprising six clearly defined stories, in height, respectively, 1 J. 16, 15,13, 15 and 14 feet, above which will rise a spiral dome 20 feet high, surmounted by a copper cross 10 feet high. Like the main building, the tower will lie constructed of concrete, in shape octagon, each of the six stories supported by stroug pilasters with Doric capitols,' the windows oval top, and the cornice of shapely copper. The outside will be finished like the restored abbey of the old cathedral, the smooth and regular surface of which bus been inistukuu for brown marble by not a few strangers. The new tower will contain u great bell and clock, aud when finished in accordance with the plans, will become one ! nf the most attractive objects of I lie city. The outward appearance of the old cathe dral has been fully restored, with same old tower and swinging hells, same (luted col umns, pilasters and massive moldings, and in every way the same old edifice that has been admired and revered by succeeding S generations since the iuving of the corner- I stone, over IKK) years ago, The walls of tho transept are now up and car pent >ra are putting on the roof. The seating eooaody of Uni auditorium is 00J. Work will bo fin ished by March l. PERSONAL CHARMS. How the Delsartisn Theory erf Develop ment Beautifies Women. What is the Delsartian theory .' If ladies can secure cultivation of tiie voice, so as to read and converse in sweetly modulated yet strong and deep tones, and by the same course of training acquire grace of carriage and the development of chest and lungs that insures health and adds to per sonal chwrms, the methods employed are worthy investigation. So thought our reporter, who called upon Mme. Gray, the noted teacher of Oratory and Physical Culture, at one of our lending hotels. Ashe entered the room a lady tall but well proportioned came with gracefui move ment toward him. A well-shaped head, crowned with a wealth of iron gray hair, dark, brilliant eyes, beneath finely arcl-ist brows, were noted as she approached. When she spoke it was with a voice sweet and low, yet with a wonderful compass. “What is the secret of this pow'er of vocal expression you seem to have?” “Secret? there is no secret,” laughed 3lme. Grav. “Time was when I had one of the weakest and thinnest of voices. Any one can accomplish what I have done. It is so easy to acquire a full, resonant voice, that will never tire or grow hoarse. Ail vocal disabilities may bo overcome, hesitation, stammering, stuttering, soon disappear under proper training.” “Does this training affect the physical system?” “Yes, it will develop the bust to almost ideal perfection. Gentlemen will add four or five inches chest measurement in as many months.” “it is desirable from a point of beauty, thenf” “Yes, ladies gain the roundness of waist, tnper of arm and hand, and tho perfect poise, ease and grace in movement, that add so much to personal charms.” “Health, I should think, would be bene fited also?” “Indeed it is. Lung and throat troubles decrease, narrow chests and thin arms nro dovekijied, and female weaknesses largely overcome.” “It seems to be a regular panacea?” “No, lam sorry to suy that some organs cannot be made good in this way after they have been injured, as mine were by a so journ near a Southern swamp. Before I tried physical culture and Warners safe cure I was a confirmed invalid. I was con sumptive in early life, and it is only a few years since I overcame a serious liver trouble. I owe much to Warner's safe cure, and Ido not hesitate to acknowledge it.” “And the consumption tendency?” “Disappeared after the use of this remedy, and when I had learned how to breathe. Not one in twenty breathe in such a way as to fill the air oils, to expand the strong nmsclas ut tiie base of the lungs, which should do the labor of expelling air. Konce, it' kidney discuss prevail . tho lungs affected by tiie kidney-poisoned blood soon give wav.” “Is not your system the De’.sartian the ory F’ “Yes, and I greatly rejoiced when this grand teacher gave to tho world his ideas. They correspond to those I had long taught, for lam a pioneer in this work, nr.<l have devoted life and energy to teaching the world that women may gain vocal accom plishments, health, grace and beauty all at the same time by these methods of cultiva tion.” "You are yet teaching?” “Yes, at the School of Oratory and Phys ical culture at Syracuse, N. Y., a perma nent institution, now in very successful progress. ” SHOE-. W.
