6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATES TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Mare and Her Five Colts—Bruns wick's New Mayor—A Yellow Fever Nurse Frobably Fatally Burned at Griffin—False Reports of Failures at Washington. GEORGIA.. The Wilkes county alliance shows sn in crease in membership of nearly 200 in one month. In the mayoralty election at Brunswick, Saturday, Mr. Colson was elected, defeat ing Mr. Dunn, the present incumbent. At Washington, many false reports of failures in business hare been started. All are said to have been absolutely without foundation. At Fort Gaines, Friday, Jamie C ileman was seriously cut bv Emmet Porter in a personal difficulty. The lirtle boys repre sent two mot esteemed famiies. Marlin T. Hollis, a prominent resident of Chattahoochee county, died at his residence Friday night. He was 75 years of age and was well known and highly esieeiue i. The office of United States inspector of customs at Sapelo has been abolished, and all the duties of the port Sapelo, Dobov and Darien are now performed by the deputy collector of Darieu. T. F. Crowley of Athens say* that some years ago his father ran a large farm with a mare and her five colts. The mare lived to be SO years of age, and a* kt was plowing in the same field with her five colts. J. M. Griffith of Daujelsville suffered a bad accident at Mai. Bullock’s gin last Thursday evening, lie was cleaning off the saws, when the engineer turned on steam, and in an instant his hand was cut all to pieces. At Atlanta Sunday Maj. D. A. Cook sold 202 1 , acres of land in Habersham county to Phil Fessaer, the agreement being that Fessner is to pay Maj. Cook by delivering him 250 possums at the rate of fifty per year for five years. At Monroe, in the municipal election, CoL B. J. Edwards was re-elected by a handsome majority. It is thought that he was opposed by the saloonists. Col. Ed wards did not consent to run until the night before the election. At Bullards, G. W. Franck’s gin house was discovered to be on fire Friday night about 10 o'dock. Nothing was saved, and there was no insurance. His son George lost ten bales of cotton he had just hauled in the day before. The fire was of incendi ary origin. Dock Williams (colored , who pleaded guilty at Albany Thursday to stealing oats from A. P. Vasson last spring, was fined SSO and costs, by Judge Jones, and being unable to pay the amount, was ni—fitted to jail. Saturday his friends furnished enough money to piy him out, and nearly fifty of them congregated at the jail yard gate to welcome him back to liberty. Several days ago Detective Horry Wim pee discovered in South Rome a negro man whose body was full of bird shot. He kept a watch on the house whe: e the man lay in order to find out whether the man was a thief or had committed some crime. It was several days before he was able to s Ive the mystery. Detective Wimpee now finds out that the man’s name is Sam Junes, and that he was shot for interfering with two negro-s who were fighting. On the Chatta nooga, Rome and Columbus railroad, above Trion factory, two negro men got in a fight and Jones separated them, 'fiiis angered one of the negroes, who got a shotgun and shot Jones. The shot, or rather a good por tion cf them, have been extracted from the the negro’s skin and he is improving. James A. Stewart, the newly elected mayor of Griffin, is only 22 years old. He is a son of Hon. J. D. Stewart, the pres ent congressman from that district, but that had “potbing to do with the case,’’ and Lis father was probably the most surprised man in the country when he received at Washington a telegram announcing his son’s election. Brought out <no day before the election, he received thirty-nine major ity over one of the oldest and most solid citizens of Griffin. This was brought about greatly through a desire for a change in the administration of the city government, but was also largely due to Mr. Stewart’s popularity and the able manner in which the impromptu cam; aign was conducted. Mr. Stewart being at the beginning of his career, there wifi probably be more to say about him in the future than there is at present. He was born Aug. 1, 1866, and is not only a native of Griffin, but has always been a resident of the city, receiving his education here at Miss ' Mollie Porter’s school, and afterward under Prof. G. C. Looney, at Sam Bailey institute. After leaving school he has clerked at various places, and is now engaged in E. J. Flem ister’s dry goods store, giving the best of satisfaction to his employer. The offices he has previously held are those of secretary and treasurer of the fire department, which he now holds; and he was treasurer of Griffin Light Guards nt the time that or ganization fell into innocuous desuetude. His present fighting weight is 150 pounds, and nis heigr.t 5 feet 11V, inches. FLORIDA. Escambia circuit court will adjourn Sat urday until Jan. 21. The tax returns for Orange county foot up a little over $5,000,000. Sugar boilings are numerous and popular in Polk county at this time. Five new business stands will be opened up in Green Cove Springs next week. William H. Gibson, an old and prominent citizen of Gadsden county, died a few days ago. The tax books of Marion county will not lie turned over to the tax collector until about Jan. 1. A larger crop of cotton has been raised in Bradford county this season thou any sea son since 1875. A meeting of the democratic executive committee for Clay county has been called for Thursday, Dec. 20. Wood in Orlando sells for *l5O per strand: a strand is 4 feet high, 8 long and from 12 to 16 inches wide. Scott, Allen & Cos, of Orlando, have sold during the last sixty days over 35,000 pounds of butter and cheese. The board of health of Quincy has so modified the quarantine rules as to make them apply only to infected points. A negro man l>y the name of Lloyd had his hand and arin badly lacerated at Thos. L. Ward’s gin, near Quincy a few davs ago. The orange crop of the Harris grove, at Cttra, this year is estimated at 80,000 bpxes, not 6,000 as the Js'ew h stated last week. W. I). Allen, the new county collector of Bt. John’s, who succeeds Mr. Lopez on Jan. 1, has secured bondsmen for $21,000, the lull amount required of him. Two Ocala ladies are the happy possessors of pieces of one of the court dresses worn by Queen Isabella, wife of Edward 11,. who reigned over England in the thirteenth cen tury. A movement is on foot among the young people of Green Cove to give an entertain ment at an early date, with a view of ob taining a fund with which to start a library. George B. Hyde of Helleview has been called to Yochapulco, Estado de J uebla, Mexico, where he is a missionary. He is on owner of considerable property in Bolleviow. Citra is having a big war with the rail roads, and if ths ro ids do not come to terms the case will go before the state as well as tbo interstate commissioners for settlement. The Bronson Times claims the youngest printer Id the state. The puper is gotten out by Master Willie Denham, who is only 12 years old. He does all the work except running the press. Around Orange City, orange crops are being sold almost daily as they stand on the trees. The rover soils his crop at from 80 cents to $1 10 per box, pcekets his wealth and g.es about his business. In a wreck on the St. Marks railroad last ! Tuesday, Anderson Burt, a colored section hand, wa? killed. Allen Scott and Con ductor William Hi' ei, were badly bruised, and Robert Austin (colored) bad a rib broken. At the shooting match at DeLsmd Mon day last, betwe : the Halifax Rifles and the DeLand Rifle-, tbe former came out ali-al by twenty points. Thomas Well, one of th- citizens who took j art i:i the j shooting afterward, beat the DeL&nd’s. A fine property was disposed at in Siigh vil;e. eight miles north of Lee,burg, last week. M. C. Sligh s >ld his home place, consisting of thirty acres of land and an orange grove, for $4,125. Other sales have 1 been consummate! and improvements ! made.

Monroe performed an | operation for hernia, upon John Sbaw of : Quincy, on Tue-dav last. Before the oper ation Mr. Shaw suffered very much from nausea. He has improved very much, and the physic ans feel greatly encouraged aud hope that be will soon recover, D nald Tompsi s. a young Columbia county farmer, living six miles west of Like City, gathered over 700 pounds of seed c tton from eighty rows one and a half acres in length. He also made nine bushels of peanuts from two quart? of seed, leaving enough in the patch to fatten sev eral pigs, all on green pine la ,and. The row at St. Cloud, mentioned as being a riot between the Italians aud negroes, was not between those, but betwaen a party of settlers on the one side and the Italian and negro employes at St. Cloud ori the other. Three were killed in all. Several participants have been arrested and lodged in jail, among them being Beauregard Drawdy aud James Tyson. A farmer in Baker county accidentally found a stalk of cotton in his field two or three year- ago that attracted his attention. He saved tbe seed, and the variety 1* now commanding special attention for its pro lific qualities, as well as for its fineness. It is claimed that land which formerly pro duced oniy an average of 200 to 300 pounds will prodace from 800 to 1,000 pounds of this cotton. After allowing ex-Collector J. R. Mon tague of Orange county all legal credits, the boa-d of county commissioners find that he is still indebted to the county about $1,600, and to the state about $2,200. His bondsmen will pay the above amounts on Jan. 16. There has never been any oontest by Mr. Montague or his bondsmen, they have only waited to have the matter properly adjusted. Dead river has been declared a navigable stream by the county commissio-ers of Lake county, and the new, solid bridge will not be built over it. It it ever has anew bridge it will be a draw. This river runs within half a mile of Fruitland Park, and the enterprising citizens of that plac > will in time utilize it. A project is now on foot to build a big hotel at the Park and.put on a line of steamers to ply the waters of the Oi-klawaha, to bring tourists from Jackson ville, Palatka and Silver Spring. A smashup occurred on the Florida South ern road on Monday night, or early Tuesday morning, at Brooksville. The train which was to bring up the excursion from there took the sidetrack at the end of its run. The passenger train was late at night, and, when Brooksville was reached, rushed into the trai i standing on the sidetrack, the switch having been left open. Both engines were badly damaged, an express car was wiped off down to toe platform and all of the coaches w ere more or lea damaged. Engineer Loomis of the passenger train was hurt, but not seriously. The Florida Southern Company is loser by about $5,000. A HOtiDS OF ’POSSUMS. The Animals are Kept in a Room on Marietta Street. From t/ie Atlanta (Oa.) Journal. One hundred and sixty ’possums huddled together in one room, or climbing about on poles placed therein for their accommo dation. „ That’s what a Journal man saw at the wholesale grocery and seed store of J. C. McMillan & Cos., on Marietta street. The ’possum room was as dark as Erebus. On a number of poles running across the room were little ’po sums, ’big 'possums, fat ’possums, gray ’possums, black ’possums, every one with snapping little black eyes and grinning teeth. One great big fellow that weighed fifteen pounds was hanging by his tail from the gas jet, he having reached the jet by jump ing from a pole close by. Cuddled up in the corner of a little box on the ti er was a little gray ’possum that growled aul snarled like a cat whenever auj* other ’possum came near his home. This ’possum was tho smallest in the lot, but whenever ho approached a bunch of his fellows they always parted to rnaki ro >m for him, as he was undoubtedly '‘the cock of the walk.” Some of the 'possums stav in this room for two weeks, but most of them remain there only a few days before they are taken out to have their necks cracked. They aro fed on slops just as a pig is fed. Two of the’possums escaped one night, and the next morning the mangled remains of fourteen chickens were found scattered about the store room. The McMillan ’possum iiouse is perhaps tbo only one in the world, as the animals are generally kept in coops until they are wanted for the table. If the trade in ’possums continues to in crease within tbe next lew years wo may expect to see a sign something like this: “McMillan Bros., wholosile dealers in and importers of ’possums, the largest ’possum dealers iu tho south,” We may also expect to see large houses erected, built expressly for the accommoda tions of the 'possums which aro brought to this market. Mistaken for a Clown. From the Buena I'ista IGa.) Patriot. A right funny thing hapi'etied at Cuth bert Tuesday when the bridal party were going from the depot up town. It seems that a circus was expected, and the fact that the young men who composed the bridal party wore silk bats aroused the sus picion of the street gamins who are always ready to catch on to anythiug of the kind. “Boys, the circus has oome,” remarked one of the little street Arabs to his compan ions. “You bet,” replied another, “and that big follow (pointing hi finger at Tom Dunham, the groom-elect) is tbe clown.” The boys in the party oousidor this a good joke oa Tom and enjoyed it heartily.

I.— Sam Greeley, George Crane and Phil Kroll of Brady's went coon hunting the other night on Jim’s mouutain, a mile distant. The dogs treed a coon. Sam Greeley climbed the tree to shake it down. Tee coon was scon jolted off the branch, and, after a good fight, tbe dogs-killed it. “Hold on!” Ham shouted down. “There's another one up here. Jiminettv! There’s two! Jerusalem! The tree’s full of’em!” Then Sam proceeded to shakedown coins. After he bad shaken down nine, one after another, all fat ones, and the dogs had killed them. Sam said : “Thtre's more up here; but hain’t we got enough f" The other two members said they thought nine coons were enough to gather < ff of ona tree, aud not a very big tree at that, and Barn came down. “I don’t know how many there’s up there yet," he said, “but there's six certai. The dogs refused to leave tho tree, but the hunters carried their nine coons home. On the way in they met Bill Grover and Jerry Knapp, wli i w ere also out cooning, but hadn’t killed any. “You might a’s wail go home,” said Sam Greeley, “unless you go "over in Ginn’s Hollow, where we’ve been. All the coons in those woods are treed in one tree over there. You’ll hearths dogs yelping at 'em if 2° that way.” Grover and Knapp went over to the hol low, and the noise made by the dogs took them to the tree. “There’s coon here, that’s sure,” said Grover, and ho climbed tho tree. Ha shook down six. “There’s two or three more here,” said Grover, “but they're way up in the top branches, and I can’t eet tv em.” So tho two hunters went away with their six coons. The dogs remained. Nut morning Charley Grable went to the Hol low with his gun. Tbe dogs were still under the tree. Charley popped three coons out of the tree top, and shouldered them. Then the dogs went home. Every body about Brady’s said that such a thing ns e ghteen cxms t eing fouud in one tree was without precedent, and no ono could understand how it was until Uncle Jake Shindler, the champion hunter of Fabley Run, got up and explains 1 it. “You’ll find,” he said, "if you take the trouble to investigate, that the tree is hol ler. Holler trees is where coons lives dur in’ the winter, as many as can comfortably pile in together. Now, them eighteen coon was lookin’ for a winter home. Some of era, maybe, had nested in that very tree be fore. They happened to all most there to gether about tho time Greeley’s dogs and the rest of ’em struck the tree. W•• wasn’t they in the holler of the tree! Well, if you’!! take the trouble to investigate, you'll find that the holier had been took up previously by a family or so of black snakes. I hain’t sure, but I'm willing to bet a farm that y u’ll find a couple dozen, maybe, of black snakes huddlin’ in that holler. Now, coons haiu’t the kind o’ critters that will bunk in so it:. snakes, and so them eignteen didn’t choos ■ quarter's in that tree. The dog? come along as they was considerin’ what they had better do, and, of course, as long os the dogs was there no coon would leave the tree till he "as forced to. That’s all there is to them ■ ighteen oo 'ns betn’ in that one tree. You’ll find' it’s so if you take the trouble to investigate. I knocked twenty coons out of a holler chestnut once. The next day I cut a hole in the tree near the bottom, and lit some straw and stuck in it, and kept the fire goin’. It wasn’t long before black snakes began to oome out of the hole at the top, and I thrashed tho life out of twentv-nig it big ones—2oo feet of black sDake, I’ll bet a farm.” Stftn Greeley and tbe rest of the hunt? r went over to Ginn’s Hollow to test Uncle Jake’s theory. If any one had b t a farm that Jake was wrong, he’d have lost th ■ farm. A fire built in th% tree as the old hunter described it made a lively tree of it for a few minutes, for thirty-four black snakes came wriggling and contorting them selves out of the hollow trunk, arid only two wero agile enough to got away into tbe bushes. After the snake colony had been cleaned out, and the jdbilan' hunters find como back and congratulated Uncle Jake on hts knowledge of coon and snake lore, the oid hunts- quietly remarked: “Oh, I know you’d find it that wav if you took the trouble to investigate. But you’re a pack of dum-gusted fools for doing it.” •‘How’s thatr 1 said Sam Greeley, in sur prise. “’Cause, if you’d left them snakes in the holler,” replied Uncle Jake, “you’d have found another wagon load of coons boldin’ a council in the tree to-night, and I’ll bet a farm on it.” Phillips’ Digestible Cocoa IToduces a feeling of lightness and buoyancy, as against that of weight, headache and depres sion, so common with the ordinary cocoa.
