Hated's residence at Tennille last week and rifled the doctor's clothing of a watch and chain and other personal effects. At Crawfordrilie. Monday, M. Murdsn, a young man who lives at Roberson, nt teranted to get on a tram while it was in motion, and was instantly killed. A telegram from K. L. Saulsbury at Brooksville, Fla. . states that Edward L. Salisbury died at that place on Saturday night. The deceased was formerly a well known citizen of Macon. The ginhouse of John Q. Amerson of Sanders viile was destroyed by fire one night last week; loss about #SOO. The fire origi nated from a hand who struck a match to peep into the lint room to ascertain how much lint was in there. Burglars entered the store of Mr. Hitt of Plum B; anch, Lincoln county, recently, and stole a large quantity of goods. It is sup posed that while they were making off something frightened them, for the goods were found the next morning some distance from the store, covered with weeds. A son of T. J. Gastlv of Elbert county was accidentally killed last Thursday. The boy was riding a mule to the field wnere he was ploughing, when the mule became frightened and threw the boy.

Two of the show windows of J. B. Wright’s, at Brunswick, were smashed in, Saturday night, and $6 worth of goods stolen. One of the windows fronts on Gloucester street, and the other on New castle, and as an electric light is there, the audacity of the thief is astonishing. Mr. Wright’s loss amounts to about S2O. The sheriff of Douglas county carrioi B. G. Kay to Atlanta Monday to answer to the charge of cheating and swindling. Roy is the man who took two of the prizes for the largest yield of cotton from the use of gossypiu :i guano last year. The facts on investiga tion were different from what Kay repre sented them to be, hence his trouble at present. A pole car race on the Buena Vista rail road last week came very near knockiug the life out of two of the track band*. Two cars had gone out from the depot loaded with iron, the crews of which engaged in a race. Soon' the last car attained such a speed that the crew lost control of it, and it ran into the first car, knocking two of the men off, the wheels of the last car passing over the leg and foot of one of the men and taking the scalp off of the other. The a convict, sentenced from Wilkes, escaped from Henry J. Hill’s farm in that county. Dogs wero set on his track, but he had several hours’ start of them. The hounds took to his trail quite readily and ran him Into the lower part of Oglethorpe county, where the negro took to a tree. When his pursuers caino up ho was begging some negri s working near to get the dogs off, but on learning that lie was an escaped convict they refused to do so. The fellow was carried back to the camp aud double shackles put on him. He was bound at the time of his escape but had succeeded in broakiug the chain that con fined his steps with a rock. L. D. Weaver of Camden, N. J., after taking in the Augusta exposition, u ent to Sandersville last week aud called on the clerk of the superior court for information about large bodies of wild land, some 20,- 000 acres, which he had recently purchased in Washington county. Having become n large land owner in Middle Georgia, he naturally felt inclined to inspect his tim bered estate with a view to development. He found that he had been made the victim of a huge fraud by a wild cat land agent. Clerk Mayo 'says he has received hundreds of letters of inquiry from parties in the north, east and west who have in vested in mythical tracts of wild laad in that section. A terrible shooting affray occurred at Nance’s crossing late Saturday night. Two negroes, named Ed Snell aud Bill Burt, were attending a ball in the neighborhood. At the time of the occurrence they were on the road, about 200 yards from the ball room. Burt owed finell scents. The latter asked for the debt, but tho forme:- refused to give it. Some hot words passed between the two men, which resulted iu Burt cursing Snell. The latter returned the compliment in exactly the same words us his opponent used. Burt thereupon prew furious, pulled out bis pistol aud leveled Snell to the ground. The retch immediately dashed off, and up to Sunday afternoon bad not been captured. R. K. Hawes, tho supposed murderer of bis wife and children in Birmingham, was born just across the river from Columbus, in Russell county, near Girard, liis father, Dick Hawes, was a gambler and well known in Columbus. His mother was Russ Maull, a well known character. Dick liawos, father of the supposed murderer, was ex ceedingly handsome. Ho was a confederate soldier, and left C< Limbus captain of a com pany. He was in Mclaws’ brigade. Tenth Georgia regiment, and was killed at the battle of C'hancellorsville. John Hawes, grandfather of tho alleged murderer, was also a citizen of Girard and Columbus. He shot and killed n man by tho name of Lamar, who lived in Lumpkin. Hon. Mr. Bmith of Gwinnett, seconded by Hon. A. T. Mclntyre of Thomas, is doing yeoman service in pushing forward a bill to increase the appropriation for maimed con iederate veterans from the orese it amount, #60,000 per annum, to $139,009. They argue that this ought to be done at onoe, as the present appropriation is far too small. They also claim that the number of veter ans is decreasing at the rate of k p ,. r cent, per annum, which will increase in a larger ratio every yeer, as the youngest are now 42 years of age, and the average from 50 to 60. They will endeavor to get the bill through to-day, If it can pootlb.y lie pushed through. There are less than 2,000 veterans now on the roll, aud should the bill post it will give the old soldiers a big lift. Asad aooident occurred near the sixty two mile post, throe miles north of Kings ton, last week. As No. 2 was running with consi erable speed, a man was discovered Li-ig ou tho track by tbe fireman, but too near to stop. He was kuocked off and in stantly killed. Capfc Robert Wylie stopped his train, picked up the lifeless body and brought it to Kings en, where he was iden tified as Thomas Kenney, who resided at H ward’s mill, ore and a half miles above Kingston, with Lewis Coker, his father-in law. He was about 26 years of ace and leaves a wifo and two children. The de ceased had a blacksmith shop at Hall’s Station, and was coming home after his day’s work, and as he has been affected wltb spells of stupor since a severe spell of brain fever over a year ago, his friends think he had one of th>- attacks and fell on the track. Athens Chronicle: From a gentleman in this city who Las a brother living iu Washington county, we glean the follow ing interesting but singular fact from a letter received by him ad y or two ago; I seems that two married couples were living only a short distance apart, and by neighborly’ intercourse each man became enamored of the other’s wife, while the Ld'es soon learned to love the other’s hus band, and thus became estranged from their first love. When malt -rs took this shape, it came to be noticeable by ail con cerned, and many evenings passse 1 while each husband was at the other’s house pouring out his tale of love and fiiriitv into the willing ears of the listener;. Finally, one of tho husbands, a little bolder than the other, proposed a i exchange. This was met with gladness by all the parties interested, and tne proposing party consented to the trade on condition that the other would allow him $5 in cash and seven bushels of Quaker peas. This was readily consented to and the trade was made, each wife going to the other’s home, carrying with lier the children, and are now living in the sweetest domestic felicity. They will try to have the courts make the trade legal. The citizens of Oconee county were hor fiou by the brutal deed of a negro last week. Much excitement prevails, and if the negro is caught his neck will be likely to stretch a rope. The par iculars areas follows: Last Wednesday morning about sunrise, Benja min Johns aud his wife were out in tho back lot. Mrs. Johns was milking, and her husband was about 30 feet from her. A hundred yards distant George Hardeman (colored), who is employed by Mr. Johns, was standing. He was called to by Mr. Johns and directed to go with him and per form some work on the plantation, and he went over t > where the negro was standing, and they walked off together. After they had gone a few steps, the wifo glanced to ward where the two were standing, and was horrified to see the negro, with a seasoned p ine stick about 2 yards long and 2 inches thick, (sounding her husband until he dropped to the earth. .She at once made for the scene, but, as tho distance was great between them, the negro continued to beat her husband until she came very near, when he took to his heels and fled. Mr. Jon ns was removed to the house in an insensible condition. The hope of his recovery is very meager. His head was considerably bunged up, a blow struck in the face knockod out several teeth and probably broke his nose, while his arm, in warding off the blows, was badly mangled. No one knows why the negro made the assault. Dr. H. D. McCoy, who lived at the home of his parents in Jones county, nine miles from Macon, on the Clinton road, died Sunday afternoon about 2 o’clock, from the effects of morphine administered by mis take for quinine by J. T. Funderburk. The doctor had been suffering all Saturday night with an aching tooth. About 3 o’clock Sunday morning, having suffered so much that he though relief could only ho had by other remedies than those be had been trying, he aroused Mr. Funderburk and requested him to go to the office, which was on the premises, and make up some capsules of quinine. The young man did a-requested, filling six capsules with five grain; each of what he supposed was quinine, but which was afterward found to bo morphine. Re turning to the room ho g ive Dr. McCoy four of them. Mr. Funderburk remarked that as he had a cold he would take some quinine also, end then swallowed the re remaining capsules. He than went to bed, but shortly afterward found himself quite sick with nausea. Dr. McCoy also com plained of the nausea. Mr. Funderburk went into the kitchen and procured sorao hot water which he drank to produce vomiting. Becoming relieved, he went to the room and found that the doctor was still sick and complaining of peculiar sen sations. He asked his friend where he ob tained tbe quinine, and was told that it was taken from a l>ox in the office. “Then you have fixed us both,” said the doctor. Mr. Funderburk thought the doctor was only joking, and wont lo his bed and went to sleep, but not until he saw that the doctor had fallen asleep. Tho doctor never rallied. Mr. Funderburk is a young man about 22 years of ago, and had been with Dr. McCoy for four years past. The two were groat friends and constant companions. Whon he discovered his mistake he was crazed with grief, and it is thought by some that he will lose his mind. FLORIDA. The hotels of Palatka are doing a good business. I’alatka has had more rnin this season than for a number of years. Cards are out for the annual ball of the Orlando Guards for Dec. 26.

Moran of the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West railway was in Palatka Monday, conferring with the Florida Southern officials, arranging n winter schedule for their roads, which will soon be announced. The Volusia county board of health now declares tli ■ town of Enterprise free from all contagion and open to travel. All quarantine ogains! the city of Jacksonville and other p nuts will be removed as far as that county is concerned to-day. Last week Fraulein Lizzie Lang, a buxom German girl, arrived in Orlando on her way to the Gotha settlement, eight miles west of that town, where she is to marry John Enseuer, a German resident of that place. Hhe came from Washington Terri, tory to be married. At a tournament Thanksgiving tlar at Daytona, oj;o rider, John Maley, was thrown from bis borsu, but uuinjuted, and Brooks Gibson then ran a race and collided with W. K. BiiUough's and James Tedder’s horses which were coming In an opposite direction. Uallough and Tedder were knocked in sensible and both horses killed by the shook. The Volusia county commissioners on Tuesday gave an order to A. Frank tikmuor THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY* DECEMBER 12, 1888. to open with a drill the safe in whica are deposited part of the fun Is of the la o county treasurer, J. B. Fmley. The safe was drilled Saturday night, and the lock was knocked off Monday raor iug when the bondsmen of tbe late treasurer, some of the county commissioners, and th present treasurer, were on hand to look into mat ters. The contents had been locked up since about June 10. At St. Louis at 11 o’clock Sunday night Mrs. C. H. Jones, wife of the editor of tbe St. Louis Republic, died after an illness of one week's duration. Her maiden name was Elizabeth C. Abernathy. She was a sister of J. A. Abernathy, professor of English Htera’ure in Adelphia academy, Brooklyn, N, Y., and was aged 35 years. She leaves a daughter 16 years of age, wh > is now attending Adelphia academy in Philadelphia. Mr. Jones was formerly editor of the Jack-o iville Timex-Union, At DeLand last week Nelson Bruno, a colored man, had another colored man by the name of Reuben Mi cbell arrested for assault and battery. The case was tried befo e Justice Lowrie, who fined Mitchel. #5 and costs, giving him twenty-four hours to raise the money, further sentence to be given in case of fa lure A feature of tho trial was the summoning of jurors. A negro being summoned, the judge asked hitn if he had ever served on a jury before. The negro replied: “Yes, sah, judge, lots of ’em, and never lost a case.” Mr. P. Solano, living about ten miles nortbeost of St. Augustine, on Oct. 30, shipped '25 boxes of oranges to J. A. Barnes, Philadelphia, an l 35 to E. L. Palmer, Balti more. Barnes made returns on Nov. 23 of $lO 50, an average of 42 cents a box. Palmer on Nov. 16 sent a check for $4 90 for 25 boxes of oranges. This wa3 getting down to a fraction under 20 cents a box.

Returns were made on Nov. 24 of sl2 63, or 50 eg conts a box, the highest returns he got. The shipment to Bennett & Hall brought the sum of $lO 21. The Vanderbilt Marriages. From the New York Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer. A quiet citizen, worth his half a million or more, said to me yesterday: “I always had some respect for the late William Van derbilt and his wife when I saw how Indif ferent they were in the marriage of their children to money consideration. In most cases they let their children marry persons of respectability aud good parentage, but without fortunes. That has lee, almost uniformly the case William K. Vanderbilt, who built the $3,000,000 house married a Virginia woman who could hardly keep her wardrobe, I have under stoo from going to sale. And yet,” said he, “in nearly every case they appear to be happy folks who go together. How |:nuch better it is than this everlasting greed to make love itself minister to avarice.” Digest and be Jolly. Did ever any one see a jolly dyspeptic? We trow not. What natural cheerfulness is proof against the almost ceaseless bodily annoyan -.-e of chronic indigestion? People whose stomachs are constantly disturbed exhibit the utmost peevishness and nervous irritability. Happily for them—sine - tbe irritable and nervous pre maturely fret themselves into the grave—tran quility of the stomach and renewed good tem per await them in a sure quarter, if they will but seek it. The genial stomachic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, breeds cheerfulness by in suring its essential pre-condition—easy diges tion. Biliousnoss. too. and constipation, malevo lent companions of the banshee, dyspepsia, vanish after a brief but steady course of the national alterative. Many a temper naturally sweet, but continually soured by the combined attack of this trio of Imp--, passes the boundary of monomania. Prevent this possibility with the Bitters. Malarial fevers, rheumatism, kid ney complaints and debility are truly relieved by this standard medicine. FRUITS. BANANAS! 500 Bunches Extra Fine Yel low Bananas Received TII I S DAY.
