Atlanta Journal: “A few days since, r
says a lady residing in the eastern part of
the ci'y, “while sitting upon my front
veranda, I was attracted by a noise on the
roof of the houie that sounded like a small
sto .e rolling over the shingle*. Presently
it ceased, and a piece of money fell at my
feet. There was no one in sight who could
have thrown it up, and tbe only conjecture
that I could form as to where it came from
was that some little bird had been attracted
by ita brightness, and, in trying to fly with
itt) its nest, had let it tail when over
my house. ”
At Hawkinsville a little negro boy. son of
William Mcßurrows, had his left arm fear
fully bitten four weeks ago by a water moc
casin. Tne snake bit him in tbe hand. The
child seized tbe suuke end pulled it loose,
when it coiled around his left arm and bit
the arm several times. Tbe parents doc
tored it themselves until about ten days
ago, when the/ called a physician. The
arm was swollen out of all shape and was
almost putrefied. Tuesday it was ampu
tated by Dr. Gus Tavl r at the shoulder.
Contrary to the physician’s expectations,
the child bids fair to recover.
One of the largest transactions in the
sheep business that ever occurred in Dooly
county has just been consummated. It is
the purchase by C. B. Howard, of Fort

L Nobles, William Short and W. C. and C.
E. Hamilton, of this County. They are to
be delivered at Fort Valley, waere they
will be driven through the country, and
the price to be paid is #1 80 per x head,
lambs, ewes and all sizes included. They
are intended for Gov. Gordon’s sheep farm,
near Fort Valley. Sheep husbandry in
Dooly county will soon be a thing of the
past, the advent of railroad*, turpentine
farms and saw mills destroying the range t,
causing great depredations on the stock,
and thus killing out tbe business.
Near Decatur Friday Will Flowers, a
white boy about 15 years old, cut his
throat, which came near resulting in his
death. He was working for Bayne &
Hairston, who are running a traveling
thrasher. At the time of the accide it
they were at Mr. Hairston’s home about
four miles from Decatur, thrashing Hair
ston’s wheat. Will Flowers was on the
table cutting the buids off the wheat; the
table broke and Flowers fell forward on
the machinery with his knife open, and
accideuily stuck it in his throat, making a
serious and almost fatal wound. He was
taken to Decatur as quick as possible and
given proper melical attention and then
carried to the home of his brother-in-law.
Bud Clay, who lives a short distance from
town. He is an orphan boy, son of Dr. A.

Saturday night the up train, No. 13, on
the Central railroad ran over the body of a
young white man by t e name of Thomas
J. ElJis, who lives about six miles north
west of Griffin. A coroner’s inquest was
held Sunday and a post mortem examina
tion made, but the decision of tbe examin
ing physician, is withheld until Tuesday, so
as to allow the jury to get toe evidence of
the conductor, fire nan and engineer on the
train. At the inquest the evidence showed
that J. G. Goings andG. W. Hearn,two em
ployes of the Gi iffiu cotton mills,discovered
the body cut in halve, just balf way be
tween the two factories, just above tbe city,
about 10 o’clock. They had beon visiting
griends at the upper factory, and were re
turning home when they first saw the
ghastly sight. Help was at once sum
moned, and a party of ten left to guard the
remains, while Messrs. Goings and Hearn
weut on to get permission to remove the
body. As these two neared the factory
No. 1, they met a party of negroes, and just
about tbe time they had time to reach
the parties guarding the remains, the
exchange of pistol shots was heard. On
their return, they learned that the ne
groes had fired upon the party without any
provocation. Several witnesses testified
that they saw Ellis before he was discovered
dead, and that he was in a drunken condi
tion and hardly able to take care of him
self. He had gone on the excursion to
Columbus in the morning and returned
with them at night, and was supposed to
be making his way home. Besides being
cut iu halves his nose and lips were split as
if by some sharp instrument, and besides
these is a bruised spot and a hole iu bis
forehead that has given rise to a suspicion
of foul play.

THE MORNING NEWS:! TUESDAY, JUNE 25, 1889.
Sanford Mascotte: The destructive mealy
1 bug, dactylopius destructor , has made i:s
. appearance in this neighborhood and caused
, considerable aiarm. This species attacks
the pineapple, banana, guava, and is proba
bly the only mealy bug that attacks orange
trees. The name “detractor” was given
to this mealy bug by Prof. Conetock on ac
count of the damage done by it in Jackson
ville about tea years ago. They have been
very common in this vicinity, but rarely
have they been in numbers" sufficient to
cause any alarm. A strong solution of
whale oil soap will keep them in check.
The Daytona Journal has a pretty good
civil servioe scheme of its own. It says;
There is a postmistress at Ormond, who, as
far as we know, is doing good service in
that p sition; but it is reported that two of
tbe masculine citizens of that town are do
ing their best to secure the office for them
selves individually. This may be all fair,
so far as the office is concerned, but is
hardly fair to the fair. When a lady se
cures such a position, and is competent to
fill it, as in this case, why not let her retain
itf There are none too "many oppor.uni
ties, as it is. for women to work their way

De Funiak Signal: Our cigar faotory is a
grand success. Last week, after the fac
tory had been in operation only two
months, General Manager Gonzalez had an
invoice taken and a balance sheet struck,
which gave the stockholders the pleasing
information that in sixty days the factory
ha 4 paid ali running expen.ee, and made a
net profit sufficient to pay for all tools and
machinery used in the factory. Twenty
five more hands will be employed imme
diately, and the capacity of the factory
correspondingly increased. The orders for
cigars have far exceeded the capacity of
the firm, but this will now be overcome,
and Mr. Go-izalez hopes to be aide to
promptly fill all orders' for his celebrated
cigars.
The Do Land correspondent of the Lake
Helen Life say.: They are after Sheriff
Turner’s scalp. He took Editor Be ijamin
into custody for the killing of Capt. Doug

until Saturday night. A petition to Gov.
Fleming, containing some eighty names,
was gotten up in Do Land; another petition
from Daytona containing the names of two
thirds of the people there, and A very re
spectable petition was gotten up in Smyrna.
These petitions set fourth the facts with
reference to the case and pray that the gov
er. er “will taka such action in the premises
that the dignity of the law may be main
tained, and our public servants brought to
a proper understanding of their official
duties.” The governor has the power af re
moval.
Under the sarcastic headlines, “Lake
Helen’s Severest Blow,” Life in Florida
says: Oie of the reasons given by Mrs. E.
F. Gould in her application for a divorce
from her husband is that he wishes “her to
reside iu Lake Helen a part of the winter.”
She contends “that there is no society here
suitable to her station,” and declares that
so severe a hardship isn’t to be tolerated,
and a divorce and $12,000 per anuum ali
mony are the only roads to relief from the
tortures she would endure were his wishes
complied with. This is the severest thrust
Lake Helen ever had. Mrs. Gould is just
now occupying Mr. Gould’s magnificent
residence in Saginaw, Mich., Mr. Gould,
himself, spends most of his time in Atlanta,
Ga., where he has the biggest block in that
town. It is located just opposite the Kim
ball house.
Gainesville Advocate: On Thursday last,
about one mile and a half from Otter'creek,
on the Florida Railway and Navigation
railway, in the Gulf hummock, ten miles
from Bronson, a cold-blooded murder is re
ported to have been committed under the
following circumstances; A man named
McCone, in connection with one White,
were in partnership in a contract for getting
out cedar, and it seems that in attempt
ing to reach a settlement they had a
disagreement, when McCone proceeded
to Bronson and swore out a warrant tor
the arrest of White. The warrant was
placed in the hands of Deputy Sheriff Ste
phens for service, but for some reason or
other, instead of executing tho warrant him
self, he turned it over to McCone, who ar
rested White, and was proceeding with him
on his return to Bronson, when, at the spot
where the murder occurred, McCone stepped
to the roadside for a few moments, when
White, taking advantage of the oppor
tunity, smitched the gun and shot McCone
dead. After he had committed the act,
White retraced his steps until he
reached a house some six miles distant,
where he found a number of parsons and
informed them of what he had done, ex
plaining to them in detail all the circum
stances. At this juncture another deputy
sheriff came along, and, although ho was
informed of the horrible deed committed,
he was rendered powerless to arrest White,
who, being armed and having the drop on
the deputy, defied arrest. White, it is al
leged, has for years had a very unenviable
reputation, and is now under indictment
for attempting to assassinate a prommet
citizen of Levy county several years ago.
He is also said to have butchered a man in
Georgia and attempted to slaughter a citi
zen of Orange county. It is also said that
he has spent several years with the
Seminole I. dians in tbe Everglades, and
that he informed those with whom he con
versed last Thursday, after the tragedy,
that he intended to make a break for the
Seminole country.
