6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OP THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Lady Possibly Fatally Injured by a Runaway Team at Gainesville- Mur dered in a Barroom Row at Flow ery Branch—Two Claimants to a Lost sls at Calhoun. GEORGIA. The Thomasville Enterprise is out in a neat new dross, and is greatly improved in make up. Gainesville has up to this time received about 2,500 bales more thau the entire re ceipts of last season. Samuel Kaul, of Greenville, has assigned. His indebtedness is about SIO,OOO, his assets, perhaps, $7,000. He is a victim to short collections and the general financial strin gency. At Gainesville, G. P. Boone & Bro. have sold out their general merchandise business to Little, Whalohel <t Go. The firm consists of John F. Little, Jeff D. Whelcbel and Frank A. Watkins. A Mr. Leadford, who has been farming this year on the Merritt place, five miles south of Gainesville, made with one horse eleven bales of cotton, weighing 495 pounds each, besides a fine crop of supplies. The residence of W. H. Ware, near Jef ferson, Kldridge Whitehead’s plantation was destroyed by fire on Thursday of last week. Sparks from the chimney fell on the roof, which was very old and dry, and set it on fire. The fire occurring in the day time Mr. Ware was enabled to save the greater portion of his furniture. Blakely N*uu: We must confess some surprise at the action of the County Com missioners yesterday in postponing the in vestigation of the books of the county officers after the grand jury had intimated there was crookedness in the Tax Collector’s methods, and that the commissioners had connived at it. We think the board owe it to Tax Collector Johnson and to themselves to make the investigation at once. A. D. Few, a farmer who live* near Wat kinsville, tells tty following and takes the cake on roi^n - Ja tskens: He says he has a hon that i„*3 hatched out five broods of chickens TlSj ya-\ and is setting at the present tints aid win hatch out another brood of chickens before Christmas. Some of the first chickens have laid and raised broods of chickens, and thus it is that a hen beco/n3 a grmdmother in one year. R. C. Smith, of Blakely, had given him, soon after his mairia.o, a kitten which is now nearly, if not quite, 14 years of age. Mr. Smith has lieen burned out once and moved several times, and each time the head of the family has located at anew place the old eat has followed. She is now a regular old grandma cat, for during her 14 years of cathood site has presented to Mr. Smith, and he to the country at large, 19t> kittens. Some fifty or sixty Irishmen arrived at Blakely last week to work on the extension, but not being satisfied with the job offered them by the contractors, they woidd not go to work. They had no money to pay their way back to Savannah, where they came from, and none to pay for food and lodging, and their clamors against the railroad con tractors were loud. Sunday morning the entire crowd except three or four put out on foot in the direction of Bainbridge. On Wednesday evening last Raymond Porter, who resides near Gainesville, drove into town with a two-horse wagon loaded with cotton seed, and loft his team standing on the publio square while he stepped into a store to transact t-omo business. The ream took fright at something and ran away. Mrs. Jesse Wofford, from the neighborhood of Flowery Branch, who was in the city do ing some shopping, happened to bn passing through the square at the time and was run over by the frightened horses. Those who witnessed it say that the end of the wagon pole struck her in the side, and while pros trated both wheels of the loaded wagon passed over her body. At last acoounts sue was still insensible, and it was thought she would die. Bainbridge Democrat: The steamer Ada, plying between this city and Albany sank at the railroad wharf in this city on Tues day morning last at 2 o’clock, and lies on her side with her cabin under water. The Ada ran afoul of a rock at the Kenton Shoals on Thursday last and knocked a holo in her hull about 12 feet long. The crew repaired this, sufficiently to bring her to this city on Saturday night where she has since been—these repuii-s being strengthened and rendered as it was thought safe. On Monday night, however, wnen all were asleep she lurched heavily to one side and suddenly sank. It is probable from what we can gather that she can be raised ami her Captain and engineer have gone to Al bany, where the Ada is owned to see about it. The Ada is the second boat that has sunk at this wharf in the last four years under similar circumstances. A fatal encounter took place last Satur day night at a little groggery near Flowery Branch, Hall county, between John Orr and Marshall -V. Phillips, in which the f ,rmer was stabbed to the heart, and the latter was so badly I oaten over the head with a club that his life was almost de spaired of when%Bt heard from. Both had been drinking freely during the evening, ami ou meeting an' old feud was revived and a quarrel ensued. Orr went off and cut a stout stick and on returning to where Phillips was, gave him a push. Orr gave Phillips a terrible beating with his club, and Phillip* kept on cutting at him, cutting his clothing in many places, and also deal ing the fatal blow. They were soon sepa rated, and Orr was taken into the barroom, where he died in a few minutes. A coro ner’s jury was summoned and rendered a verdict of justifiable manslaughter, Buena Vista Patriot: A right funny thing liappened down at Andersonville last week when the change of the run was made to Americus. The Andersonville people had opposed the change, and very naturally, from first to the“ last, but had taken ho decided measures to prevent it until the day before the change was expected to be made. After the tram had left Andersonville Mon day afternoon for Buena Vista the plans began to mature, as the train was expected to arrive there as usual the next day. A stake was driven between the two tracks, a long chain attached with which to secure the Raoul and an officer in readiness to enjoin the moving of the engine. The people of Andersonville watched with bated breath the arrival of the train that morning, but no train arrived. The Presi dent of the road had “smelt a mouse” and intercepted their designs. Ho wont up to LaCros.se and had the train to go into Americus on the new road instead of to Andersonville. At Calhoun on Wednesday of last week Rev. T. J. Simmons, who is clerking for J. B. Johnson, picked up sls from the floor which some ouo had dropped. Dock Holden was standing near, and claimed to have lost the money, and it was turned over to him. In a few minutes an old man by the name of Matthis steped in and said that he had dropped some money while trading with Mr. Simmons, and tin* above circumstance was related to him. He went to Mr. Holden for the money, out the latter would not give it up, saying that he had dropped it, and stated positively that it was his money. Holden was then taken witli a warrant, and ct a commitment trial lust Friday, was bound over to court in the sum of j 100. A peculiar circumstance iu the trial of Hol den was the fainting of his witness. He swore positively that he saw Holden drop the money, and the words had hardly passed his life- when he fell from the witness stand. Sheriff McGinnis thought it was another case of Ananias and Sapphira, and worked pretty hard to bring the fellow around. ri-ORIDA. Matthew Hays offers to pave St. Augus tine's streets for $1 per square yard. The County Commissioners of Lake county have purchase Ia Hosier safe of 5,(W0 pouaus weight for $550. The Episcopal church at, Lake Park is nearly completed. It is a very ornamental and substantial building. f _ ® The bodies which were buried in the Baptist church cemetery at Lake City have been taken up and reinterred in the city cemetery. J, Crim, of St. Augustine, who attempted suicide some time ago, has been place t in the insane asylum, and his live children were taker charge of by his family. The commissioners of Orange county re fused, by a vote of 8 to 2, to appropriate SI,OOO for the benefit of the South Florida Exposition, to be held at Sanford in Feb ruary. The night mail via the Florida Southern road has been discontinued. The train is irregular in its arrival, never on time, and the mail it brings is inconsequential in char acter and quantity. At Trfine Park Mr. Bowen, from England, has bought the house, grove and forty acres of land of J. Hay Taylor, and has already contracted for extensive improvements to be made on house and grounds. The cost of the system of sewerage for Pensacola, as planned by George E. Waring. Jr., of the firm of Waring, Chapman K Karquhar, sanitary engineers, which com prehends the whole city, is estimated to be $5,578 10. A chapter of Royal Arch Masons was or ganized in Ocala Monday night. Marcus Endel, of Gainesville, A. M. E. D. G. High Priest, was master of ceremonies, in the ab sence of Augus Patterson, of Madison. Tho metubei-s are eleven charter, petitioners six. In incorporating under the name of the Atlantic and Wastern, the gentlemen who purchased the Blue Spring road have nearly duplicated tho name of a railroad in Georgia —the Western and Atlantic. Although widely removed, there is opportunity for this similarity to create confusion. The surveyors have nearly finished their work at Nassau City, and the streets are being cut out and much preparation made for placing the lots on the market. Very possibly the near future may see Nassau sound and inlet looming up into prominence as a port of entry, as there is plenty of water on Nassau bar. Traveling Agent Raymond, of the Mal lory line, tumped from a window of the Egmont Hotel nt Fernandina Wednesday evening, while fleeing from the hands of a young lady during a game of “bluff,” and misapprehending that he was fifteen feet from the ground, fell that distance, seri ously injuring his knee. On Sunday evening, at St. Lucie, Frank Feasily was shot by a fellow by the name of Lord. Feasily was a deputy sheriff, and was about to arrest Ix>rd, who shot him in the breast, killing him instantly. Lord took to the scrub. Much exciteinent pre vails, and all the people in that vicinity have been out hunting hirr.. Titusville Star: It is feared that the steamer Clara will be compelled to give up her trips on our river, on account, of the filling in at the west end of tho Haulover eanal. She stuck on the bar Tuesday for some time, and as the channel is tilling up more every week, it is only a matter of a short while before boats of any draft will find it difficult to pass through The Coast Canal Company seem to have forgotten that the canal needs any attention at all. Thursday Nattie Sanchez, of St. Angira /ne, and a companion, both lads of about 12-years-old, procured a revolver and went out in the country hunting. By some means tjie pistol in the hands of Nattie was discharged, the ball striking his friend in the head and inflicting a scalp wound. Young Sanchez seeing his friend bleeding, concluded he had killed him and quickly rode to town to obtain medical assistance. His father went back with him and found the little fellow all right except for the wound, which was not serious. Capt. Sanchez, of the fruit schooner Christian Berg, appeared before Justice W. A. Mac Williams, at St. Augustine, Wednes day and swor* out a warrant for the arrest of Milton J. Christopher, a colored man, charged with breaking into the ice house and stealing $l,lOO woi tb of jewelry, curios ities, etc., belonging to Sanchez. The war rant was placed in the hands of Sheriff Her nandez, who went to Jacksonville Thurs day and returned with Christopher. He claimcs that lie was in copartnership and had sailed with Sanchez, and was entitled to the custody of the goods, hence his tak ing them and departing to Jacksonville. The case will bo tried to-day. As the health authorities do not think the work of fumigating tho Tampa mails any longer necessary it will, in all probability, be discontinued soon, and the mails will be sent directly through as they were be fore the epidemic. Division Superintend ent Turner, of Atlanta, telegraphed Post master Clark that. Dr. Wall says the fumi gation of the mails is no longer necessary, and asks him to have the health officer cer tify that this is the case, send a certificate to him, and fumigation will be discontinued. Postmaster Clark, after consultation, ac cordingly telegraphed Mr. Turner that a majority of tho members of the Board of Health at Jacksonville, with Drs. Wall, Caldwell and Wylly, say fumigation is no longer necessary, and that a certificate will be sent to that effect if required. At Gainesville Friday the Young Men’s Christian Association Convention organized by electing F. A. Courtis, of Orlando, Presi dent; G. M. Caldwell, of St. Augustine, Secretary; I. E. Webster, of Gainesville, Treasurer. Tho chairman appointed a busi ness committee as follows: J. W. Anderson, I. E. Webster and J. C. Richards; on reso lutions, T. A. Harding, W. D. Tinley and F. A. Latham; on State organization, S. O. Mitchell, P. Hardy and W. H. Dellilly. The delegates present Were enrolled, and all the members of the Gainesville associa tion were admitted as members. Various questions were diseumed, and reports from the different associations were made by tho delegates, in the afternoon L. A. Harding conducted a Bible reading, and various questions relative to the Young Men’s Chris tian Association were discussed. Rev. F. B. Dunham, of the Episcopal church, deliv ered an address on the Bible as a text book for young men. In the ovening the time was s cut in discussing the subject by W. B. Owen aud others. Whites ville, fifteen miles south of Ocala, on the Florida, Railway and Navigation, was tho scene a few days ago of what might have been a fearful tragedy. Mr. Culver house and P. H. Nugent had done some budding for Samuel U. Frink, the owner of an extensive nursery. The latter re flected on Culverhouse’s work. He resented the criticisms, when Frink asked: “Do you mean to say I lie?" and took out his pistol to emphasize his question. Hero ended tin's scene, and both parties went home. Then Frink wrote a note saying that Culverhouse had thrown all the blame of imperfect bud ding on him. The contents of this note so riled tho impulsive young Louisianian that he saddled his horse and, with his double barrel shotgun, went in search of Culver house, his partner in the work to demand the truth or falsity of the accusation con tained in Fr nk’s note. Nugent found Cul verhouse at home, and made known the object of his sudden visit. Culverhouse de nied that he had said one word which re flected on Nugent, and then related to him his trouble witli Frink. While he was do ing this Frink rode up and again accused Culverhouse of having done him much damagoby performing poor budding to his grove. This so incensed Culverhouse that he determined to get even w ith Frink, and with this avowed purpose lie picked up Nugent’s gun and fired at Frink, but as good fortune would have it, Mr. Nugent reached Culverhouse in time to strike his hand which supported the barrel of the gun, which threw it up, this causing ttie load to strike Mr. Frink’s hat instead of entering his body, which would have killed him, as the gun was heavily loaded with buckshot. This reception apparently satis fied Frink, who rode home.

Henry Ward Beecher, bold only in boxes. THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1887. Singular Phenomenon. There stands at the front entrance to the plantation o' John Brass, near le, Fla , a pine which from its dimension* might denote a century’s growth, or more, vicing in verdure with younger specimens of its species, and though it is pas-ed daily and is well known to every Inhabitant of tho surrounding country, none but its owner, and those he has shown it to are aware of the remarkable feature which makes it, “a wonder of the age.” Lightning we know generally destroys everything with which it comes in contact, but this noble and ven erable tree has withstood its terrific assault and stands a memento of failure by that subtle and space-annihilating fluid to de stroy the object of its attack. Yea: may probably have elapsed since it was stricken, and the terrific wounds it then received (hough partially healed are still perfectly visible. Looking for a fluttering Woman. Prom the Calhoun {Oct. ) Times Uncle Bayliss Green, from Fairmouut district, is in town this week on the hunt of a stuttering woman.
