6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Colored Corn Thief at Macon Given a Severe Whipping on the Bare Back by His Father A Fulton County Farmer Killed by His Horse £ ailing on Him. GEORGIA. V. W. Skiff promises to contribute S4OO toward the purchase of a town clock if he U elected Mayor of Athens. The steam sausage factory at Dalton is turning out 1,000 pounds of sausage daily. The product is shipped mostly to points south of Dalton. The agents who visited Dawson last spring in the interest of a Nashville nursery "ere there again last week delivering their goods. They sold $5,500 worth of trees iu Terrell county. Ben Mann, of Terrell county, has a very intelligent pointer dog, which he frequently gives a nickel. The dog takes it in his mouth aud makes a bee line for a beef market, where he spends it for meat. At Atlanta a negro woman living on Humphrevs street, named Cora Wells, was the victim of a singular accident Wednes day night. Her bed collapsed after she had retired, throwing her to the floor and break ing her collar bone. Miss Annie Bohannan, a young woman about 1(5 years of age, was horribly burned about three miles from Lumber City, last Monday morning about 3 o'clock. She was standing before the lire, when her clothing ignited. Her recovery is considered impos sible. The dwelling and outhouses of Mrs. Lemuel Parker, in Scriven county, were burned down on Monday night. The Are is thought to have originated from a defective flue iu the house. Nothing was saved from the buildings and the loss is a heavy one, as there was no insurance. A few days ago a crowd of negroes were in a field at"“Uncle'’ Wesley Houser’s, near Port Valley, digging stumps. They had built a fire and left a little girl near it to keep it burning. When the crowd was at some distance the girl’s clothing caught on fire, and before any one could reach her she was burned to death. Mrs. Betsy Woodward, residing near Rid dleville, in Washington county, took a small quantity of strychnine by mistake for a dose of calomel recently, that came well nigh proving fatal. As soon as she was assured of her mistake by the convulsive movements of her limbs, she took lard and sugar and the white of an egg, which for tunately counteracted the [ioison and doubt less saved her life. James Hill, a well-to-do farmer, residing near Thomasvillo, Fulton county, a small country village near Clark's University, met with a fatal accident. He was on horseback, driving a drove of cattle, when his horse, while jumping a ditch, stumbled and fell. Mr. Hill was thrown to the ground. The horse, in struggling to get up, fell again on Mr. Hill, injuring him to such an extent that ho died within a few hours. E. Eh Cherry, foreman of the Milledge ville Chronicle, and Miss Alice Goodman, determined to get married rather suddenly on Oct. 24, aud, having secured a license through a mutual friend, they walked to the residence of Rev. A. M. Williams, at Amer icus, and, in the preseneo of a few friends, were quietly married. For some reasons of their own they determined to keep the mat ter secret, and only made the matter public Wednesday. If reports lie true some sensational de velopments are likely to proceed from the Miss Elvira Ivey murder trial, which was disposed of in the Siqierior Court of Jeffer son county last week by an acquittal of Miss Ivey. It now appears that one of the jurors in the last trial sat upon the case in a former trial, when the defendant was con victed and sentenced to five years in the jienitentiarv. It is reported that the juror will be prosecuted, and the matter has aroused a great deal of excitement in Jef ferson county. At Marietta Wednesday night the citizens were awakened by the screams of a woman. William Brown, a negro, had cut his wife’s throat from ear to ear. Sheriff Coryell was on the scene almost immediatelv. and at tempted to arrest Brown. The "latter ran under fire from the Sheriff and escaped. Thursday morning some men found the fugitive in a clumn of hushes, almost dead. In his hand he held the bloody knife with which he had cut His own throat. He was brought back into town, and at last accounts was dying. The woman may recover. Jealousy was the cause. Griffin Sews-. Sunday night was very cold indeed, severely cold for the ice fac tory, which suffered a considerable loss from the freeze, one that it will take weeks to repair and arrange. It seems that on Saturday night after work had ceased that the water was not turned out of the engine and the numerous pipes necessary to run the machine. The consequence is that water froze in many of them and also in two of the engines used, causing them to burst and rendering work impossible in any portion of the building until new castings of the en gines and new pi|>es can be secured. It is even impossible to continue the work of drilling out the well until the engine for that purpose can be repaired. Manager Smith estimates the damage to the machin ery at from $4OO to $5OO. At one time during the late civil war the National Hotel at Dalton was used as a temporary hospital. Recently ns some workmen were engaged in making some in terior repairs about the building, a letter, faded and yellowed with age, was discov ered behind the plastering of the wall of one of the rooms. Upon examination the letter was found to have been written by a soldier of the war, probably while lying wounded ia the buildiug. .Much of the clii rography was illegible, though enough could be deciphered to show that the letter was a brief history of the war, which the writer had doubtless intended to have forwarded to his home folk. How it came behind the plastering is a question to be solved. Maybe the wounded soldier in an attack of delirum slipped his epistle through a crack in the wall, mistaking it for one of Uncle Sam’s mail boxes. Americus Recorder: Most of our busi ness men know more about business than hunting, but occasionally one will make up his mind that it would do him good to go out with the boys for a day’s sport. Such was the case with a prominent business man, closely identified with our banking interests. Thanksgiving Day being a legal holiday, and the liauks intended to close, as usual, our friend joined a party just being made up to go out hunting during the day. He hied himself to a sporting field and bor rowed a magnificent gun of the latest pat tern of breech loaders. Going buck to the crowd with his gun, lie looked it over care fully, and then remarked: “Why the ram rod has been lost. I guess I’ll go'around to Rogers’ and have a now one made for it.” It was with difficulty the crowd kept qui( t until he hud started for the gunsmith’s, and it is not known yet whether ha lias found out how to use a ramrod on that gun. Ijust Wednesday night a negro called nf J. U. Middleton’s near Brentwood, and said he wanted to buy some cane. Mr. Middleton walked out to get the cane for him. After handing the cane to the villain, he gave Mr. Middleton a blow over the hea l witn a club he had prepared, crushing in his skull. Mrs. Middleton heard the blow aud ran out, calling to her husband. Receiving no reply, she went toward the cane patch sun met the negro. Ho struck at Mrs. Middleton, and her life was only pre served by the faithful dog. The dog chased him some distance. Mr. Middleton had skillful medical attention, and all that family and friends could do was done, but he died on-Satimlay. The murderer’s name * R Tom Murphy, and Simon Shinholater and Ed Browton are accessor ie l . The three negroes passed Mr. Middleton’s three weeks ago and went into his cane patch. Mr. MidMetou put Jug dog ou them aud the dog bit Tom Murphy, and he murdered him for protecting his property. A reward of SSO for the arrest of any of them is offered. Tom Parker (colored) found with a sack of corn belonging to G. M. Davis, which it was afterward ascertained was stolen, was arrested at Macon Wednesday. Mr. Davis said he would net pros cute the case if Toni’s father would whip him. Tho father agreed to give luma genteel thrash ing, and at 13 o'clock Wednesday was at tiie barracks with a long strap which had the appearance of being a section of a buggy trace. Tom was not aware of what was coming, and when it was announced that his father had come he was about to jump with joy; but when the door of the cell opened and his father appeared with tho ugly strap, he wilted. The father was not disposed to stand upon ceremony, and at once com manded Tom to relieve himself of his coat and shirt, instauter. This was done, but with grent reluctance. As soon as the tiody was bare tho strap swung high iu the air, quivered for a second and then came down with a swish and a swaek that caused the black skin on Tom’s 1 tody to turn white in stripes. Thirty-nine times did the strap come down with swishes and swaeks, dur ing winch Torn danced a Pawnee war dance ami yelled like a Kiekapoo. IVhen the last lasii fell, Tom was made to put on liis shirt and coat and was led home, feeling as though he would uover take a grain of corn again. FLORIDA. The health of Plant City remains good. Anthony in the past four years lias turned out seventeen school teachers. A party of forty Ohioans are visiting now at Melbourne, with the prospects of settling. J. M. Simms, of Orange Hammock, ex pects to have this year HOO gallons of syrup. Tho powerful pump for the Sanford water works has arrived; also a very large boiler. The Florida Railway and Navigation Company will soon build a now depot at Plant City. At Hawkinsville peach trees are in bloom. The nights are quite cool, but there lias been no frost yet. The Florida Southern Company is build ing a large warehouse at tile pier at Punta Gorda aud will soon be prepared to store freights. Noah Townsend, of Hawthorne, expects to have gathered 400 Ixixes of oranges from thirty-six trees when he lias finished picking and packing. The Orlando Record states that there have been over sixty births, two-thirds of which were lioys, in that city during the past three mouths. E. T. C. Dickinson, of Greenwood, Fla., has obtained a verdict of $2,850 against D. W. Williams, for burning his gin house. In the criminal prosecution some time before, Williams got off free. Mr. J. liorillard, of Now York, lias de cided to retain the steamer Indian River at New York this winter. This is equivalent to saving that he will abandon the steam boat business in Florida. At Anthony cool weather has prevailed for the past week. Ice % of an inch thick has been seen in several places. No serious damage was done to vegetables. Grange trees did not suffer at all. Tho St. Mark’s river is wonderfully phos phorescent at night between St. Marks and Port Leon. Boats seem as though they are suspended over a molten mass, and those oil board can see the smallest fish in ten feet of water. Hawthorne has been having- a boom in weddings lately. William Hammond and Miss Cain were married last week, also Eli Adkins and Miss Eldora Martin. Ben Coch ran and Miss Kitty Boone were married on Sunday. At Chattahoochee Rev. L. B. Wilson, pro firietor of the Advance, has secured a nice ot and is erecting a pretty little dwelling. There are other improvements going ou iu the way of building and clearing kinds for planting tobacco next year. The case of C. H. E.-filer, charged with assault with intent to kill, was tried at San ford on Wednesday in the County Criminal Court. The jury brought in a verdict of guilty of aggravated assault, and this morn ing Judge Butt announced tho sentence to be ti tine of #IOO and costs, P. C. Peacock, who lives near Chatta hoochee, Fla., on the Georgia side, and who conducted a boarding house at River Junc tion during the summer, has Iteon Incarcer ated in the Bainbridge jail for neglecting his family and paying too much attention to another woman. The woman is also in jail. W. W. Breese, of Orlando, lias been elected business manager of the Sanford Publishing Company, vice E. \V. Peabody, resigned. Dr. Breese is editor of the Florida Alliance. The Alliance will be published at Sanford. Mr. Peabody will hereafter devote his entire time and attention to tho editorial depart ment of tiie Ary us. At Hawthorne all the orange growers are speaking their indorsement of P. P. Bishops fight to get the rates reduced on oranges. They say the idea of sls being charged per car for hauling oranges, which are compara tively easily handled, when lumber and brick nro hauled the same distance for sl2, does not look much like justice to the grow ers and vegetable men. At Hawkinsvillo Hickory, onoof the Dado lioys’ North Carolina hounds, got on a trail a tew days since, near where the boys were at work. After trailing it around some time he began to bay. The boys went to him and found ho bad an immense rattle snake and the snake had a full-grown rabbit half swallowed. The snake was killed anil found to be 5 feet 7 inches in length. The boys wore uncertain whether the dog was trailing the snake or the rabbit. Although Ht. Augustine has increased within a twelve-month nearly 2,000 souls, yet the rate of mortality is HO i>er cent, less for the past six months than for the corre sponding six months of lost year. This makes a very good showing for the health of the city, and proves tlio fact that the removal of earth and the lining up of marshes had no injurious effect, as was feared by many. The physicians say that there is much less fever this year than formerly, aud that St. Augustine, both summer and winter, is a remurkably healthy city. J. IX Easter]in, Superintendent of the Bell Telephone Company, who has been at St. Augustine for several weeks past over seeing titae work of putting in a telephone exchange, left Wednesday for his home in Charleston. Mr. Easterlin feels highly grutilhHl with the encouragement he hus received from the citizens and, in conse quence of the much larger number of sub scribers than he at first exp'cted, lias boon obliged to order anew koy board at the central station. Thirty-six telephones have Ken put in, and nineteen more will lie placed in position within a few days. The ch nces of a wire between St, Augustine and Jacksonville are now very good, and wiil no doubt be buiit soon. Tallahassee TttUahnssean: Pour little negroes, monkeying with a gun on a planta tion seven miles oust of the city a few days since, furnished work for our local physi cians, and came near giving work to a Coroner. Two of the boys, George Pemble and Anthony , aged each about 15 years, had guns, and had laid them down where they all stopried to play. William , aged 10, and -Monk Pemble, ago i 8 years, were frolicking with each other, when William seized a gun aud said: “I be lieve I’ll shoot Monk.’’ The older boys see ing that ho was going to do what ho said, jumped at the gun. They saved Monk, but each of them lost a hand, and Anthony re ceived several shots in the body. M. Opp'iiheimer, President, and Messrs. George and Henry Storm, directors of the tobacco syndicate, are comfortably domi ciled in a special car at Quincy. Since Monday they have, on horseback and in car riages, been looking over their land pur chases. They ure much pleased, and urge further purchases of laud. To-day they I (ought the Kay place, which reu -nes to within a short distance of the African church, tutd which, in the opinion of several TTTE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1887. ! citizens, may mein the location in the fu ture, of the railroad de|iot nearer the town. !

If Your Lungs are Destroyed I Do not expect that Dr. Pierce's "Golden ! Medical Discovery” will make new one.', for i you. It can do much, but not impossibili ties. If, however, you have not yet reached tho last stages of consumption, there is i hono for you. But do not delay, lest you j cross the fatal line where help is impossible. The Discovery lias arrested the aggravating cough of thousands of consumptives, cured their night-sweats and hectic fevers, and restored them to health and happiness.
