A Biff Importation of Jug's at Daw eon—An Atlanta Man and a Roach —Outrageous Articles in a Paper Circulating Among the Negroes—A Quarry of Black Marble. GEORGIA. It is reported from Clinch county that two notorious negroes have been killed there by a posse of armed men to whom they re fused to surrender. The Piedmont exposition, which will be held in Atlanta in October, offers a $1,200 prize for the best county display. Every part of the state is invited to compete. Carroll has the largest white population of any couuty in the Fourth congressional district, being in excess of ti e colored pop ulation by 12,281. The total population, according to the last census, is 16,901. There will be a mass meeting of the citi zens of Blufftoa and vicinity to-day. for the purpose of discussing the railroad ques tion and the feasibility of building anew academy. Rockmart had a fire about 3 o’clock Mon day morning, in which the store and con tents of J. T. Jenkins and the postoffiee were consumed. Mr. Jenkins hud a $25,000 •tock of goods, with only S3OO insurance. The house and postoffice belonged to a Mr. Davis, who carried no insurance. Odell Pinkston is in jail, in default of flso bail, to await the action of the grand jury at the coming October term of the su perior court. The trouble with him is that be entered the room of Mrs. Gordon McComb and stole from it two diamond rings belonging to her. Atlanta has no salt sea surf scattering •pray upon the snowy sand, but she has two little fresh water bathing ponds at Ponce de Leon, and they are well patronized. Last Sunday a week ago, 225 boys and men dipped their heated bodies beneath the cooling waters of one of them, and oil Mon day there were at the same place 125 bathers. It is Henry county’s time to furnish the next state senator from that district, and the following gentlemen are talkei about in connection with the honor: William T. Dioken, Col. C. T. Zaehery, Hons. George E. Wise, Edward J. Reagan and A. Brown, Rev. S. H. Griffin and W. P. AVilson, Esq. On last Sunday, in Lawronceville, B. L. Patterson had eight chickens killed by lightning on his lot; at least, he suppose* they were killed in this way. lie and his ■wife left home in the morning and wheu ho returned the chickens were all lying dead and the feathers scorched upou them as if by electricity. On the premises of C. C. Hallman has been discovered a quarry of very fine black marble. Mr. Hallman sent a sample of the rock to the Chattanooga Marble Works and had it polished, and it proved to be very flue. Tne quarry is only two and a half miles from Spring Place and nine miles from Dalton. J. H. Ray of Twiggs county, who sends the handsomest peaches to the Macon mar ket on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, has on his place three peach trees which, to his certain knowledge, were bearing in 1813. The trees are now lies 1 thy and full of bright, juicy peaches. Trie trees are the finest in the section and are said to be the oldest in the state. Lucius E. Williams, son of W. D. Will iams of the Academy for the Blind at Macon, a graduate of Mercer university, who has been for four years a student of Johns Hopkins university, Baltimore, has been elected and accepted the place as adjunct professor of chemistry in Swarthinore college, Philadel phia. Mr. McAllister, an expert in the oil busi ness, says there are unmistakable signs of oil on a lino extending from Holland Spring to a point in the ravine opposite Mr. Atkin son’s residence, at Rutlege. He also says that so confident is he that oil can be found in paying quantities that he will be willing to take stock in a stock company organized for that purpose. It is said that a prominent merchant on Clayton street, m Athens, has adopted the following novel plan of determining the f ries of his chickens. He has four coops. n them he has a half inch, a one inch, an inch and a half and a two inch auger hole. All the chickens he can squeeze through the first he sells for 10 cents, through the secoud 15 cents, the third 20 cents and the fourth 25 cents. He is making money. About 40 feet of wall on the east side of the brick warehouse occupied by G. A. Broom, of Newnan, collapsed last Sunday morning and fell with a loud crash. The roof extending over that portion of the building caught on a pile of cotton and is but slightly damaged. The warehouse is owned by Col. P. F. Smith, who will begin work at once to resurrect the pros trate wall. In a difficulty which took place a day or two ago near Clayton, James Beck stabbed Tom Page in two places iu the back, in flicting very serious, though perhaps not mortal wounds. The parties were alone, and both intoxicated when the difficulty occurred. From the best information ob tainable it is thought that Beck was justi able, he having been knocked down two different times by his assailant before he offered any resistance. Smithville News: There ?s an old timer in J. F. Johnson’s possession. It is the outer leaf of an old almanac, which was edited by Thomas P. Ashmore of Lincoln county and published by Guieu & Thomson of Augusta in the year 1839, just fifty years ago. The leaf came in the possession of Mr. Johnson not long since by a negro man, who found it in the oid dwelling recently vacated by James Adkins. A Mr. Clayton recently went into tho un dertaking business at Boswell. He sent in his application for membership to the Fu serai Directors’ Association and was re jected, for the reason, it is supposed, that there was already one undertaker at Ros well, and the place is too small to support two. By some sort of ah agreement the Coffin manufactories only seil to membeis of tbe Funeral Directors’ Association, and Mr. Clayton found that the market is closed against him. Mr. Clayton has gone out of the business. L. J. M. Bell, of Heard county, was bitten by a mad dog last week, and on Friday he had the madstone owned !.y J. A. Brett ap plied to the wound. The stone adhered three hours and thirty minutes before fall ing off. It was then cleansed by being boiled in sweet milk and again applied, and adhered two hours aud ten minutes. On being applied the fourth time it would not stick. The milk, after the stone was boiled in jt, had a green, poisonous appear ance. On Friday United States Collector J. H Ringer, assisted by United States Marshal W. P. Corbett, Deputy Marshals S. J. Brown and A. J. Lofton made a raid in Upson county and captured Monroe Den ham’s illicit di tillery and three kegs of whisky in his house, near Thomastou, and also captured Allen Powers’ illicit distillery near Hendricks, and arrested his son J. F. Powers and carried him to Macon, where lie was bound over in the sum of S2OO for his appearance. The elder Powers gave leg bail. This distillery was located in Powers’ smoke-houso. Waycross Reporter: Those interested in the important work of Sundav schools are evidentlya t work in Ware couqty. Four new schools are reported as having been started up in the last few weeks, and we un derstand there are others to be organized •oon. Those organized are as follows: Mount Greene, mar Millwood, J D Hatcher superintendent; Mill Branch near Wnßortown, Randall Cas n, superin nr o w l !.® near Waycross, Dr. * w illiams, suierintendent, and the organized last Sunday at twfffraii”' 0 ’ With J ’ b ‘ •^ cCartil J r superin- A party of young men, curled and dressed to visit *heir Sunday girls, w.-re standing outside the Kimball house at Atlanta, when a large roaea w riggled out of a crack and perambulated across the sidewalk. One of t”e young men, who is known to be far from a total abstainer, noticed the insect and called his Companions’attention to it. All hxiked where he pointed and then looked at their friend in an inquiring way, and denied that they saw anything at ail. A frightened look came over the youth’s face. He looked doubtfully at the r ach for a m note and then turned his back on it and said: “Of course you couldn't see it; how Could you when there was no roach there. 1 was only joking.” But he continued to leplr fearfully ever his shoulder until the l 4 bijuke up, then he went straight home, *4'tl<ffli d.•cSbr and swore never to take Strangers in the city last Friday were surprised to see so many jugs being hauled through the streets of the city. They were naturally under the irnpressi u that they were the product of one of Daw son’s big manufacturing enterprises. While not made here, these jugs were to be used by one of Dawson’s enterprising citizens. They were sent here to be filled by Frank Bethune.but for whom’is nobody’s business. Mr. llethune will send s use of these jugs to Shellman, some to Cuthbert and some to other places. He has been prevailed upon to use a few of them here at borne, but as the supply of “bug juice” is equal to tbe demand Imre be will mostly use bottloi iu this immediate vicinity. In Cuthliert and Shellman it is different. The supply is not equal to the demand, hence the jugs. Tbe jugs, it is calculated, will hold 5,000 gallons of whisky, and 50,000 drunks for an ordin ary man. This tends to show that Daw son’s importance as a distributing point is recognized throughout a large section of Georgia, especially the “dry” section. Col. Whitlock, the veteran hotel keeper at Marietta, tells the following story, and there are few better s tor/-tellers iu Georgia than Col. Whitlock: “It-was many years ago, and one of our leading mer chants was a Dutchman, a quarrelsome old fellow, who loved his beer better than his neighbors. One day a countryman brought two wagon loads of loose shingles ;n town and offered them for sale. A young man named Winters, a good-hearted fellow, who loveil his joke, bought the shingles and ordered the countryman to throw them off into the Dutchman’s store. ‘An old fellow in the store will got mad and try to stop you,’said Winters to the countryman, ‘but don’t you mind him; he is my clerk, and can’t understand English.’ So the countrv mon drove around to the Dutchman’s store and began to throw off' the loose shinglos right into the frontdoor. The Dutchman raved, and cursed, and swore, but the handfuls of shingles kept falling upon the floor until both wagons wore emptied, 'The oid Dutchman was too stingy to hire help, and it took him two days to got his store cleared of the shingles.” Sidney O iff, a negro railroad hand, was shot aud killed Sunday night in a house on Hazel street in Ty bee, a suburb of Macon, opposite tlm Methodist church, below the Georgia mills. Goff and two negroes named Asa W iiliams and Dembo llrisbv were gambling in a hou-e owned by a white man named Cronin and rented to Brisby. Williams, losing heavily, became angry with Goff, and, jerking out a 38-caliber re volver, threatened him, saving that he (Goff) was playing unfair. Goff resented the accusation, and, rising to his feet, started toward Williams, wheu the latter fired at him, the ball entering the left breast, striking the collar-bone and then deflecting toward the heart. After he had been shot Goff rau out of the house and into tlm street where ho fell on his back, dying in a few moments. A largo crowd collected and the house was quickly locked up and Williams and Brisby took their departure, Brisby, it seems, taking the revolver. At midnight Williams was arrested. He had an ugly stab iu the right side of the neck, which he claims was done by Goff in the early part of the night, at the Brisby house in Tybeo. Williams will not acknowledge the shooting, but says after the cutting he went lo Hammond's bar on Fourth street after police officers. The African Methodist Episcopal church has apparently done much good among the colored people of the south. Its member s ip is constantly increasing. This denomi nation has an organ published in Philadel phia, whence the sect first sprung. This organ is a neat monthly magazine known as the A. M. E. Church Review. It has been usually well edited and a really inter esting periodical. The April number of t .is magazine appareutly made anew de l>arture. Insto and of preaching a gospel of peace and purity it is filled with low, ob scene and inflammatory utterance, sueh as are calculated to do untold harm in stirring up the lowest iiasdons of the negro. This number of the Review has done direct harm in one instance at least. The other day, down in the neignborhoou of Ty-Ty, a colored preacher took tlie magazine as his text, and instead of delivering a sermon, read with great auction the debasing utterances therein. He dwolt particularly upon the first article in the book, the contribution of William Hannibal Thomas, a former Lake City (Fla.) negro, m which he recommended that the snotgun ho used against the white men iu protecting the virtue of tho colored women. Thom is reiterated tho statement that “from time immemorial tho white women of the south have been particularly partial to their colored men servants, and that this fondness is increasing under tho mellowing influence of freedo n,” and his siatemont itiat the young lady who was raped some time since by a negro, who was lynched for the crime, had been for years the negro’s paramour, “as was well known by the lynchers.” This was all most heartily enjoyed by his sable hearers, who, coming from the adjoining turpentine farms and saw mills, were generally tho off-scourings of the negro race. Shortly after tho harangue was ended, the preacher suddenly disappeared, and the country knows him no more. It was as if the earth had opened and swallowed him up. No trace of him can be found. His unannounced departure is enveloped in an awful tragedy, and his people fear that some dreadful mystery has happened. A large number of the Reviews have been circulated among the negroes in the pine belt. FLORIDA. J. F. Lyons of LakecCity has purchased B. N. Tucker & Bro’s livery stable in Madi son. It is said a fire in the flat woods of Colum bia county has burned many calves, ph- 8 deer, etc. A large bear, which weighed GSO pounds, was killed on the beach opposite Sebastian last week, John T. Shuften, an Orlando colored man, has written a book, “The Brighter Side of Old South.” No foreign vessel arrived or cleared at tho port of Jacksonville during the month of June. A postoffiee 'has been established at Hol land, Leon county, with Hugh H. Black as postmaster. The corn crop in Leon couuty will no doubt be larger this year than it has been for several years past. Tho Alachua County Alliance will at tend tho Fourth of July celebration at Oliver park in a body. Mr. Hinds of Amelia island, has shipped north this season 370 barrels of squash, and expects to ship as many more. A xoan by tho name of Kirkland, living at Spring e-iten five pounds of honey at one Anting, and is still there. Col. L. A. Barnes a few days since sold to Samuel J. Burnett twenty-five feet of a lot jus; smith of Burnett block at Gainesville tor $1,500. Clear Waters popularity as a summer resort is growing, and promises to soon equal that of its fame as a winter home for the “missing tourist.” Fish <fc Lee have already purchased $2,500 worth of alligator skins at their store, nt Spring G trJen, this year. They expect to buv $3,000 worth. TIIE MORNING NEWS:' WEDNESDAY, JULY 3, 1889. A wildcat fell into a cistern the other night at Myers. The water not being deep enough to drown it, it was baa.en until in seusitile. and then taken out with a rake and put to death. The outlook for the early construction of the Gainesville aud Suburbun railway con ti ues to improve. It is only a question of time, aud mod likely a very short time, when the work will be begun. Tampa’s now deputy collector, F. A. Ounby, while fishing Saturday, in company with M. C. Rerdeil, in a lake east of Or lando, succeeded in capturing a black bass that tipped tbe scales at twelve pounds and three ounces. At Tallahassee, Saturday, the supreme court disposed of the following cases: Lew ter et aL vs. I'riee et al., affirmed; George E. Wilson vs. Dexter Hunter, affirmed; Hicks vs. the State, affirmed. The court adjourned to Friday. Duri 'g a vi .lent showerSundav Mr. Cot ton, whi resides two miles south of Or lando, inet with the loss of a valuable horse. He had turned the animal into hLs Held to graze and it was s’ruck by lightning aud killed almost instantly. Tho ginning heretofore done at Lake City for A chincloss Bros., agents of the Coats’ Spool Cotton Company, will be removed to Madison, and the building and steam power used iu running a kuit goods factory, which will put on the market a superior article of kuit underwear, etc. Maj. A. 8. Campbell of Osceola county is shippi ig several cords of young cypress sapplingstoa large factory in New England to see if they will make good barrel hoops. If the experiment proves successful the fac tory will be moved to Campbell, and that industry will lie established there. A row occurred in the Bank saloon at Tampa, Wednesday, bet ween John A. Mc- Donald and “Mississippi” Jones. The for mer bit off and spat upon tne floor the largest and best, part of the latter’s left ear. McDonald was In;fore the mayor nex morn ing. and was fined S3O for disturbing the peace. The Tampa Journal says it has received enough inside information concerning the proposed Tampa and West Coast railway to fully convince it that the projectors of the enterprise have the ability to build the road, aud that they mean to do it. Suther land would probably be the southern termi nus of the line. Saturday Gov. Fleming appointed Norman Robinson of Orange couuty to be state chem ist, and Frank l’niilipsof Pensacola t,o be in spector of fertilizers. These npiiointmeuts are made in aco irdance with the law creating the bureau of agriculture, aud the bureau will be put in active operation as soon as practicable. The Tilton grove on Lake Como, near Orlando, lias just been sold to Edwin Val liette of New York city, tho price being $5,590. The property comprises fifty acres of good pine land, and has a grove on it of 700 trees, it is the intention of Mr. Val liotte to enter into extensive improvements, and he will sot out three or four acres in white Niagara grapes. Joe Brownloo, a negro, was drowned at the jetties at Mayport Saturday. The acci dent. was caused by the anchor line parting oil the lighter. There were sixteen men on board at tne time, and all were thrown into the water. J s.e Byrd, another negro, was under the lighter a considerable t me. Ho was fastened up with the hawser, and had considerable difficulty in getting free. The iighter was loaded with shell. At Orlando Saturday, in lowering the Irvine building on Church street to tho level of the sidewalk, the foundation upon which the jack screws were resting gave way oil tho east side of the house and allowed it to fall about a foot. Foriuuatelv nobody was underneath the building or in the trenches at the time the accident oc curred, or it would have resulted in serious injury, and herhaps losi of life. The C. S. Phillips Tobacco Company, of jNew York city, that purchased 20,000 acres of land near Lakeland in Polk county last April for a large to baoco plantation, will soon begin to prepare 500 acres for tobacco, which will be harvested in the coming year. This will be the beginning of Polk county’s big tobacco boom. The establishment of a large to bacco factory at Lakeland is also contem plated. Tho p reduction of honey in Florida bids fair to become one of the great industries of the state. F. Trueblood of Archer has given bee culture a fair test with the most satifactory results. Ho started in this spring with eight stands of Italian bees. From these eight stands he has already secured over 500 pounds of honey, worth cents per pound. The total cost to Mr. Trueblood lias been about sl3, which in clude ; payment for nine new stands. He expects to secure at least 500 pounds ad ditional of honey before the season closes. H. S. Keduey, owner of the San J uan hotel at Orlando, is contemplating some changes in the building before it is opened to the public for another season. It is probable that after tho scores now occupied by the Citizens’ National Bank and Monetee & Palmer are vacated the partitions will be torn out and these rooms utilized for the hotel. The dining room will be moved on to tho ground floor, aid some thirty or forty chambers added to the house, thus in creasing the accommodations of the house. In the season of 1887-’BB the hotel was not nearly largo enough to meet the demand, and many guests were thereby turned away, A few days ago a rumor was circulated in St. Augustine that a suspicious fever prevailed in Jacksonville, aud that two in terments had been made at night. Dr. F. F. Smith was requasted to ascertain the nature of the fever, and whether or not any burials had taken place at night. Dr. Smith wrote at once to Dr. J. C. Kenwor thy, city health officer of Jacksonville, and Saturday night received a reply. Dr. Ken worthy states that the rumor is false and absurd, that the prevailing fever is a typo of typhoid, that no interments have been made at night, and that no suspicious case of lever has existed .since January last. Gainesville Advocate: News reached this city to the effect that a terrible tragedy had been enacted near Orange Heights in this county, in which Ben Boulware, Jr., lost his life. One is that a while man, armed with a revolver, and a colored man, having a knife, assaulted Boulware, and shot aud cut him to death; another state ment is that he was waylaid Saturday night, and while riding into town was shot from his horse by an unknown person. Still another rumor is to the effect that Boulware run a colored man out of liis house, abused his family, and that in a haud-to-naud fight he was killed. There were so mauy conflicting reports concern i'ig the affair that it seemed out of the question Monday to learn the facts. Boul ware’s body was buried on Sunday. SI,OOO Reward. One thousand dollars will be paid to any chemist who will find on analysis of S. S. S. (Swift’s Specific) one particle of mercury, lodid# of Potash, or any poisonous mi li st ance. In 1873 I contracted bldod poison, which soon developed into its severest secondary form, with blotches and ugly sores all over my body, which totally disabled me for more than a year. The doctors treated me all the time without benefit. The disease steadily growing worse and worse, I was u: aole to work for more than a year; finally was persuaded to take Swift’s" Spe cific. After taking seven bottles I was sound end well, and have not felt a svnip ton of the disease since. This was sixteen years ago. Joe Vaughn. Forsyth , Ga., Jan. 23, 1889. 1 have taken Swift’s Specific for secondary blood poison, and derived great benefit. It acts much better than potash, or any other remedy that I have ever used. B. F.
