W. L. B. Powell lives near Guyer’s sta
tion, on the Chattanooga, Rome and Co
lumbus railroad. For several days four
negro boys were hanging about his resi
dence, and on Monday last they entered the
residence and secreted themselves in a room
occupied by Mr. Powell’s eldest daughter.
When the young lady entered her apart
ments one of the negrnes seized her arm
and attempted to drug her further into the
room. The family was at once alarmed by
Miss Powells screams, and her father hast
ened to her assistance and reached her just
as the negroes made their escaiie
through a window. One of the
four, named James Williams,
was captured, confessed his guilt, and im
plicated his three associates. The plot they
had planned was to enter the room of ili-’s
Powell and cut her throat after their work
had been accomplished, and if discovered,
to murder the entire family, plunder, and
then burn the house. The negroes were all
arrested, and whon they learned of Will
iams’ confession, said it was true. The trial
was commenced Thursday, and there is no
doubt of their conviction.
Dr. J. B. Mobley of Fairburn has a curi
osity, w ith a history of unusual interest at
tached, in the shape of a teu-cent piece—
not a dime, but a regular ancient ten
center. It runs this way: On the evening
of the 14i h of April, 1805, the night in
which President Abraham Lincoln was
killed, the president, before reaching the
opera bouse, walked into a drug-store close
by and bought of the druggist a bottlo of
smelling salts, paying him therefor tea
ce its. He handed the druggist the exact
change, this identical ten-ceut piece. Just
as the President walked out of the
drug store, Charley Linas, a union soldier,
and a member of the One Hundred and
Forty-sixth New York volunteers, entered
the store and bought a cigar for ten cents,
and handed the druggist a twenty-five coot
piece, and the druggist said: “Here is ten
cents just paid me by President Lincoln,
and here is a flve-cent shin plaster." Private
Lines placed the ten-cent piece in his vest
pocket, and went on his way rejoicing in
the flavor of his cigar. The next hour and
a half brought the news to the
soldier that the President had
been fatallv wounded at the
ope a bouse. The soldier thought of tte
10-cent piece immediately, being the last
money the President had spent while in life.
He valued it very highly, and in the fall of
1660 he met up with Dr. J. B. Mobley, and
told him about the lu-ceot piece he had.
The doctor laughingly asked Lines what he
would take for the piece, and Line* re
marked, jokingly, be would take $25 for it,
whereupon Dr. Mobley pulled out the
l amount and handed it to him. Lines
! wauled to back out, but Mobley insisted,
and ficallv received the piece from the
hands of CoL Lines.

Orlando Record: The city was com
pletely shocked to-day with the announce
ment that Dr. H. H. Martin had been
arrested upon a bill found by the grand
jury, now in seasim, charging him with a
very grave offense. Jud?e Broome fixed
the bond at SI,OOO, in default of which he
was remanded to the county jail. Tae pen
alty for conviction of the crime wit i which
he is charged is, under the net of ISS7,
i inpnsonment in the state penitentiary for
two years. Dr. Martin has been in the em
ploy of the drug store of L. P. Lawrence &
Cos. for the past two years until recently,
and lias hitherto borne a good reputation.
The crime charged against him is a serious
one, and can hardly be believed by his
friends. The bond was changed by' the
court this afternoon from $1,00.), for his ap
pearance before the next term of the criini
court, to SSOO, which will probably be se
cured.
A recent issue of the Times-Union con

Every city iu the land should have its
Florida club, with a winter sanitarium or
hotel for its special use. The various cities
in a single state might have their club
houses in one locality, and thus the state
would be reproduced 111 miniature. Such
au arrangement would add materially
to the benefits expected from a sojourn in
the Land of Flowers.” John G. B ivdenof
Green Cove Springs offers to give the land,
iu a fine location, beautiful, healthy, with
good water, pure air, and the best climate,
with a fine water front, near a railroad and
a steamship line, with poitoffiea, sweet
roses, yellow jessamine, etc., ail these to
any tourists of good r mutation who may
wish to establish a club bouse such as the
Atlanta men have just provided for.

The stock maricet to-day was again a very
limited affair, and outside of a few specialties,
which were affected by influences peculiar to
themselves, there was no movement whatever.
The collapse of the suit against the Chicago
Gas Trust furnished a little life to that s:ock,
and after opening up % per cent, at 444, It
reached a fraction, but afterward rose to a
shade above its opening price. Shorts covered
rather freely, but there was little demand for
stock iu other directions. Lackawanna early
loomed into prominence, and advanced a frac
tion under the impJassion that a Bqueeze of the
shorts might be attempted, but the latter stock
receded, and closed at Thursday’s Drice. Rich
mond and West Point was still influenced by the
late acquisition of the Erlanger roads by the
East Tennessee, and occupied a prominent posi
tion in the early fiortion of the session, but ba
unme quiet later, and reacted with the remain
der of the list. Among the specialtiestheonlv
marked movement was Ma /hattan, which sud
denly spurted up from 106% to 1084 on very
light trading and for no apparent reason. The
bank statement was exp rated to show a decrease
in the surplus reserve, but the actual decrease
was much beyond expectations, aud life and
strength were taken out of tho market by the
exhibit. The movements In the general list
were confined as a rule to less than 4 P-*r cent.,
and dealings presented no feature whatever,
though a strong tone prevailed in the first hour,
giving place to weakness later on. The close
was dull aud barely steady at about opening
prices, which were generally something lower
than Thursday's figu es. Final changes are in
significant, except for .Manhattan, which is up
14 percent. Trading in listed stocks reached
only 57,782 shares, of which 10,915 were in
l-aekaivanna. while dealing in the unlisted de

Chicago, April s.—Trading in wheat was ac
tive and a strong feeling was developed The
unarket was governed wholly by local influences,
there being a holiday in Europe. A fair outside
business was transacted. Tue market opened
about the same as Thursday's closing, ruled
firm. May advancing lVac and July barely lc,
receded some, and closed higher for May
and %c for July. Early in the session attention
seemed centered in May and July futures,ruling
quiet, sold at discount from May prices, but
later July was the most sought after, and that
future advanced to within H c of May. The
factor which was of the most influence was the
crop reports, which still point to a reduction in
yield of the next crop. Corn was fairly active
the greater part of the session, but the feeling
was rather arm, although the undertone was
exceedingly nervous, and it took very little to
start prices up or down. The market opened
active, with an easier tone, but there was very
buying, and when wheat started up corn
fol owed, but reacted some.rallied, ruled steady
and closed a shade better than Thursday. Oats
were quiet and stea ly and without important
features. A fairly aeltve traie was reported in
mess pork and prices ruled s<®7Hc higher,
closing steady. Trading in lard was fairly tic
tive. and prices ruled rather easy early, but
soon advanced 2)4®5c, with good buying by
local operators, Quite an active business was
transacted in short ribs Prices on the whole
range advanced 7)4® 10c, closing steady.
