s imo time by a thief stealing eatables from
; his dining table every night. Various fruit
less attempts had been made to capture the
burglar, but on Tuesday morning last he
was caught in his lair. Mr. Connell went
to the kitchen quite e trly that morning,
kindled the fire in the stove, and all at once
noticed the tablecloth to be somewhat
out of order. He at once knew that the
thief ha<l visited him, hut little expected
that he was concealed in tbe room with
him. He began fixing the table in order,
and as be lifted the tablecloth discovered
the thief —a large ’possum. The animal sat
contentedly munching a piece of moat until
Mr. Connell grabbed him. The thief was
lynched w ithout judge or jury, and fur
nished n square meal for Mr. Connell the
following day.
Charlie Digging is a little ginger-cake
colored aegro, about 15 years old, about 3
feet tall. He claims to tie a native of
j Houston count}’, and has been raising con
j siderabie sensation among the negroes of
j Milledgcville by his marvelous inanuor of
j preaching t e gospel. He lias completely
i captivated the negroes of that place, who
flock to hear him in droves, and shout
“amen” at his eve y utterance. He pre
sen's quite an odd appearance, walking
l ack and forth behind the tall pulpit, but
his earnest and simple appeals find ready
reception in the hearts of Ins congregati in,
whom he sways like a boat in a t iripest.
He talks very rapidly, and, although he
uses very simple language, lie never lacks
for a word. Ho gave his congregation au
imaginary trip to hell one night last week,
nnd wound up his sermon with a picture of
heaven. He carried them to the very
highest pitch and then exclaimed: "If you
git there before I do, tell tny Savior I’m
coming, too.” At this point the congrega
tion almost unanimously opened a shout
that was kept up until near midnight.
An interesting suit has been filed in the
United States circuit court at Atlanta. It
sounds, tho United States vs. John F.
Quarles, Frank Quarles, Benjamin Conley
and James Tate. It is a suit ou the official
bond of John F. Quarles, who was at one
time the United States consul to Malaga, in
the kingdom of Spain. The penalty of the
bond was fixed at, $3,000, and it was signed
by Frank Quarles, Benjamin Conley arid
James Tate, as sureties to tho government.
During the administration of President
Hayes, on June 25, 1877, John F. Quarles,
a colored citizen of Atlanta, was ap
pointed United States consul at Malaga.
His salary was $1,500 a year.
The only surviving bondsman is James
Tate, who is worth about $50,000. He is
tho richest negro in Atlanta. Qu rles,
while consul at Malaga, gotjvery much lie
hind in his accounts, and the suit, which is
brought by the government against his
bondsmen, is for $523 47 on account of sal
ary and fees. Of this sum SSO 25 came into
Ins possession and should have been appro
priated by him to the relief of Ameri
can seamen. The case will come up for a
hearing at the October term of the United
States court, and as James Tate is the only
living bondsman, in the event of judgment
lieiug gotten by tho government, he wili
pr Diably have to settle the little shortage
of Quarles, the late ex-consul to Malaga.

Not a little excitement was caused on the

A BODY SNATCHER.
He la Frightened Out of His Wits by
Practical Jokes.
From the Atlanta ( Oa.) Journal.
Out on the Boulevurd road, two miles
from the city, and but a short distance
from the street car tracks on Ponce de Leon
avenue, is a quiet-looking little country
home, surrounded by growing crops.
The farm is now owned by Maj. M. C.
Kiser, and is occupied by A. K. Smith and
his son, M. Smith.
About dark Tuesday night, as the young
man was going down to the pasture lot, he
was hailed by a man who said ho was from
the city.
He talked with Mr. Smith for a few min
utes and then said:
"There’s a crowd of fellows from the city
who are fixing to have some fuu to-night at
that little graveyard yonder. There’s a
little Italian In town upon whom wo want
to play a joke. I’ve been working on him
for about three weeks. I told him that I
made a business of stealing stiffs, and some
times made as much as SSO a night at it,
aud I offered to let him in the business with
me if he wanted to go. I told him that I
would give him half and wo could
make big money out of it. He was a
little afraid at, first, but day before
yesterday he consented to go in with
me and help to steal the next stiff I lo
cated. 1 told him yesterday that I had
found one, and to get his horse and wag< n
ready for use to-night, for lie was to furnish
the horse and wagon. I just want to tell
you that there’s going to b ■ some shooting
around here to-night, and you needn’t be
alarmed. We are going to have some fuu
out of the Italian, or I’m a Dutchman.”
At 11:15 o’clock la-t night, a wagon con
taining three me.i and the Italian drove out
Pouce de Leon avenue and stopped at the
corner of Jackson, where the horse was
tied.
The Italian was given a dark lantern to
carry, although the moon was shining
brightly.
Two other men carried a pick and shovel
and silently the quartette neared the little
graveyard, from the middle of which a
single marble shaft shone in the moonlight,
in front of the two tall cedars waving in
the cool night wind.
A thick pine wood lay just beyond the
graveyard, aid through the trees the rising
wind sighed and moaned as the men stopped
in front of the graveyard.
A whispered consultation was held, and
the Italian, whose hair was by this lime
standing on end, was told to a lvalue aud
throw tne light from the lantern under the
cedar tree to see if any guard was present.
Slowly this inhabitant of the land of blur
skies and balmy breezes, crept up the few
stone steps leading over the wall, shivering
in the raw night air as he mounted the
steps.
Suddenly there was a rustling in the
bushes, and from every corner of the grave
yard a figure in white arose.
Before the frightened Italian could move,
before he could say anything more than
“Bueno Dio” (Good God) four pistols were
fired almost in his face.
“Did be run I”
“Wall, if you could have seen the deep
tracks he made in the mud as he cross <1
the road, followed by eight other shots,
vou would havo said he was a little rattlod.
If you could have seen where he ran into
and tore dowu a portion of an old b >ard
fence, upon which a jiortion of his coat tail
was fluttering in the breeze this morning, if
you could have seen tbe place where he
glided dowu a steep embankment,
on his face and the way he
tore up the earth in making
tracks away from tbe g avevard, you
would havetiionght thoimpsof Satan them
selves were after aim in full cry. M. Smith,
who heard tho shots fired, said shortly after
ward iie heard the dogs of a negro, who
lived half a mile awav, barking verj- fir i
ously, and he had no deubt that they were
barking at the flying Italian. Mr. Smi h
heard the others laughing as they went
back to the wagon, which they proposed to
put at some livery stable anl keep there
until the Italian returaed, when they were
going to get a policeman to give him an
other fright by approaching him and tell
ing they nail his wagon at the station house.
COU LOTON M. JONES
Tells of the State of Affairs in Jackson
ville and Camp Parry.
A party of Jacksonville people are at the
Markham house at Atlanta. They arrived
Tuesday night on the East Tennessee, Vir
ginia and Georgia passenger tra.n, and will
remain in Atlanta several days. They are
not just from Jacksonville; they left there
ten days ago., and have been sojourning at
Camp Perry
The party consists of Col. Loton M.
Jones, Mrs. Pauline A. Jones, Henry G.
Jones, George A. Peck, W. TANARUS, Jones, Miss
Grace R. Peck.
Col. Loton M. Jones is the chairman of
the relief committee in Jacksonville, and is
one of the most prominent citizens of that
place. Speaking of Camp Perry, ho said:
“Yes, it is a success, aud I am glad to say a
good word iu its behalf, fur much
censure has been heaped upon
Surgeon General Hamilton unjustly, 1
think. Camp Perry has proved a
success, and Surgeon Geueral Hamilton is
entitled to unlimited praise. He is a gen
tleman and an efficient, bravo officer. He
has been at the camp nearly ail the time,
and baa done good service. I have seen
him make a personal inspection of a man
who had an unmistakable case of yellow
fever. He never once flinched from his
duty, and he did all in his ]>owur to amelio
rate tl>* condition of those who wore de
tained at the camp.
“Before coming away from Jacksonville
I placed W. B. Owens at the head of the re
lief committee. He is an excellent gentle
man, and is worthily discharging the duties
of the office. At present there are about
300 refugees at Camp Perry. Altogether
about 500 have been there. There have
been twelve cases of yellow fever and one
death at Camp Perry since it was started.
The camp is under the strictest military
discipline, and tbo rule* nnd regulations arc
rigidly euforcod. But all who nre there are
treated as well as possible. We got three
meals every day. The victuals wore well
rooked and well served. On that score
there could not possibly lie anv
complaint. At 0 o’clock at night
the signal for going to bed is given,
and half au hour later lights must 1.0 put
out. At 7 o'clock In the morning every
body is expected to got up, and half an hour
later breakfast Is served. The ladies with
gentlemen and ladies alone are served first.
The negroes and Italians get their food in a
different place, aud are never thrown in
contact with the others. At present the
colony at Comp Perry is composed of the
very best people of Jacksonville. There
never ha* been any disturbance there.
Ei orythinr moves along smoothly. Aii
eminent physician—a specialist—Hr. Gui
tora, is in charge of the place. He is one
of the best doctors I ever saw. Not a singlo
case has parted there, aud not one of those
who left there has had yellow fever since
coming awny.”
"What do you think about the state of
things in Jacksonville/''
“1 tnk- a hopeful view. It is ray im
pression that the city his seen the worst.
At least 15,000 white tieople have left Jack
sonville, and of the 3,000 who remain most
of them have had me fever. The only
material upon which the disease cun work
in the future is the negro population. There
must tw about 15,000 negroes in Jackson
ville a' present, aud it must he said to their
credit tiie.t they have acted well. They
have given the authorities no trouble what
ever. 1 think from now on the daily re
port* will become more and more encoiirag
Ing.''
