Mariah Connor of Greensboro have died within the post few days. Mrs. Walter Johnson, wife of the United States collector of internal revenue, was buried at Columbus Friday. Speculators in theater tickets cornered the house for the minstrels at Maon Friday. Fifty cents advance on regular prices is what they charged. An Atlanta man savs be is ready to put up $5,000 if Dr. Armstr -ng of that city, who looks so much like Booth, will goon the stage and plav “Richard 111.” There is talk of bringing Schaeffer and Slosson, the billiard experts, to Atlanta during the Piedmont expoiition. It is said that they can be secured for |IOO each aud expenses. Macon’s chief of police was warned by the chief of police of Augusta that a jewelry •tore in Macon was to be robbod Thursday night.

Miss Starke, although living in Georgia, was of the South Carolina family of Starkea who re side in Fairfield oounty. Swainsboro Fine Forest: S. C. McNair, living near Summit, was awakened one night last week by a considerable racket in the smoke house. He took a light and went to see what It was, aud to his surprise he found the would-be intruder a “slick tail possum” in a piece of old stove pipe, where he had crawled for concealment. Some sly rogue, who had learned the exact location of the boxes and barrels in N. A. Fowler’s store at Woodstock, on Friday night last crawled under the store and bored auger holes through the floor into the coffee and sugar barrels and then, by holding a sack under them, succeeded in getting a supply of these articles. At Atlanta Friday a fireman named Mosely, of No. 4 company, met with an accident at a fire on Edgewood avenue. Among the things thrown from the burning building was an old oavalry sword, Wheu the fireman was going toward the building he ran against the sharp point, which stuck in his foot, inflicting a very painful wound. The burglars who tried Monday night to get into the stores of H. C. Burr, H. H. Deane and others of Griffin have, it is thought, been spotted by the police, and will oe caught.

Chancellor Boggs of the state university at Athens will not allow men coming from branch colleges to euter classes higher than sophomore.

When the men returned glass amounting to S4OO worth was found to be destroyed and was thrown away. D. A. Korn had announced his engage ment to Miss Nora Kittle of Athens and preparations for the marriage had been made, when In some unaccountable way rumors were set afloat to the effect that Mr. Kurn was a married man with a family. An inquiry at Mr. Kurn’s old home in In diana proves that the rumor is false. He will sue the author for criminal libel if he can learn his name. Sumner Local: A Mr. Griffin,' from Westouia says he has twenty-five brothers and sisters, which, of course, makes his mother the mother of twenty-six childreu. They are originally from Bulloch county, and lived nineteen years on Oketluokee swamp. His mother is now living, and is proprietor of the Gritfln house in Waycross, and is in good health, having never taken but two or three dollars worth of medioine. Miss Emmie Young of Greene county shot and killed a mad dog a day or two ago. A dog belonging to the family suddenly went mad, and, after having attempted to enter the house, was playing havoc with every thing that came in its way in the yard, and, though Miss Emmie had never shot a gun, she procured one that was in the house, and, bravely going out, made a random, but successful shot, killiug the raving auimal the first fire. Atlanta Journal: I saw two Chinamen buj' tickets for F*an Francisco from Atlanta the other day. They have been living here several years and have made a snug sum of money. They t old me that they were going back to China now and never expected to return to Atlanta. This thought occurs to me: What good do Chinamen do Atlanta? Very little, if any. Their clothes, their utensils, oven their pipes and tobacco— almost everything they use—come from China. They buy a little rice here or pay a little rent. That’s about all. When they get *2,000 or *3,090 ahead they pull up stakes and go back to China, never to re turn. The negroes in the neighborhood of Colsutta, in Whitfield county, are excited over what they claim to be a case of con juring. Lizzie Clark, a negro girl, has been acting strangely for several days. Last week she began to bark like a dog bray like a jack and imitate st akes. The darkies declare the girl has been conjured, and sav that just under her skin are scorpions, which run when touched. Quite a number of per sons have been to see har, and, although they cannot understand her condition, they all pronounce it a queer case. The negr os say she has been poisoned by powdered scorpi* ns by some uuknown euamy, and by a conjurer. Fire broke out in a building known as Gu'ibv’s ark, at the corner of Johnson and M streets, at Brunswick, Friday night at 0 o clock. It was eutirely consumed, and a residence adjoining it, belonging to John Brown, and another residence about fifty yards away, owned by Brown, but oecu - >pieu by Peter White, were in full blaze. )' hen toe stre un of water arrived it wus turned in the house occupied by White, and. by heroic work, the frame of this building was saved. The total lots IS esti mated at |2,000. 7'Ue Guuby building bad recently been completed. It was about 80 feet long by fifty feet wide, and had r eeu buiit for tenements. It was unocoupied. The loes was total, with no insurance. John Brown's house, adjoining the Gunby build ing, was completely destroyed, but was in sured for S2OO in the Merchant’s Insurance Company of Newark, N.

Mr. Smith’s brother stated to a Timet reporter that his brother went int • tftn house, still sleeping, and went to bed, and that shortly afterward the pains from the in juries he ha I sustained from the fall cause! him to awake; that he awoke him (J.

A little later in the season the whole property recently purchased by Mr. Young will bo surveyed and cut into house lots, making some beautiful lots on the river bank north of town. Titusville Star: Besides the accident re ported last week to Mr. Brown on tUe rail road dock, two other very narrow escapes from injury or deatli have recently occurred on the dock on dark nights. Two em ployes of the steamboat company have been unpleasantly surprised at different times on dark nights by stepping on large snakes, supposed to be moccasins. Tampa Journal: Col. Isaac Whitaker of Homeland, Polk county, Fla., has sold his phosphate farm to a Loudon syndicate for *500,000.

Melbourne News: One of the favorite sports with some of our small boys is to inarch up aud down the public wharf at nights, with a small spear point in the end of a long pole, aud as the silvery creatures dart by and circle around, the disturbed phosphoresence marking every outlino of their graceful bodies, tho spear is thrown with unorring aim, and in a twinkling oue of the beauties is floundering on dry bourds, ready to be prepared for some one’s break last.

It is the intention of this firm to transfer the lumber from the 1 mill to the railroad by tram. Titurviile Star: The guava industry is I now a very promising one for (be Indian j river. They grow readily and beer plenti fully, but owing to their lack of firmness to stand transportation, little attention ba been given to their culture. There is now a ready demand for them throughout the state and only a limited supply. Ose party reports tfiat a few years ago he allowed quantities to rot on the ground. A demand was established sod I nor eased, until last year he was pleased to get 50 cents a bushel, and this year he finds ready sals for his crop, which is quite extensive, at 40 cents a peck. Palatka Herald: A drummer from regions where colored people are a curios ity, was passing down Lemon street when a colored school adjourned. Tbe drummer, with the peculiar views, was delighted with the sight. He applied pet epithets to tbe children, gave them goo l advice, etc. The kids thought he was giving them “taffy,” and when he reached out his hand to pat one of them on the head, the af >re said ter ror, thinking he was about to lose his hat, decided to stop it.

Campbell, who re sides east of Winter Haven, planted some mango seed about flvo years ago. Three of them germinated and grew up to fine pro portions. He sold some of the fruit and finally sold the trees; realizing the net sum of $l5O. The mango was originally intro duced from the East Indies. This fruit is regarded as a great luxury. In its pre ferred fresh state, with our rapid lines of transit,it now finds its way some distance up ii the high latitudes. Hitherto, outside of its indigenous and limited location, this fruit was o dy known as an article of com merce, in a pickled condition. Titusville Star: Master Louis Depow. one of our young piscatorial experts, had a rather novel experience in angling n few days ago. He was fishing for ere valle from Wager’s dock, when a noble specimen of this garacy fish took the bait, and in his rapacity misjudged the iooation of his throat and allowed tbe bait, book and line to slip out through his gills, wheu tbe t>ait was in stantly seized by another hungry crevalla, who was firmly hooked in the mouth. Both of the fish, which were beauties, and weigh ing about six pounds each, were landed, aud the lad proceeded home with his catch with out having the trouble of stringing his fish. Bartow Hews: The air is full 'of rumors referring to the exuming of the bones of the elephant, the mastadon and the ring tailed monkey. The last comes upon the breezes from Albion’s chalky cliffi.

Tampa Tribune: During the world’s fair at Paris Mr. Plant secured something new in a large music box whioh is operated by steam, and excels in sweetuess and soft ness of its music anything of the kind that has ever been heard. We understand that he proposes placing this in the basement of the hotel.connocted by pcs and with stoam power, and to this mac nine or musical in strumeut the telephone wiros which are being placed in every room will be at tac ied. And by some big recent improved attachment (which can be attached or do tnehed at will by any one) to the telephone the music from this remarkable instrument can be heard as plainly in the most remote room as in the immediate vicinity. This will be an attraction that no other hotel in the world has. Titusville Star: A personal letter from J. M. Lee, from Waukesha, Wi6., to a gen tleman m this town says they are just clos ing a magnificent season, in fact the best they have evor had at their hotel there. Mr. Lee is in hopes to return early to the Indian river and make extensive Improvements in connection with his hotel property at Rock ledge. A club house will be erected on Luke Washington, with ample aoc unmodations for guests who wish to indulge in snipe shooting and fresh water fishing afforded in that locality, and boats will be run regu larly across the Indian and lianana rivers, connecting with a horse car line to be run across Merritt’s island from Georgiana, making through and rapid, as well as va ried and pleasant, connection from the hotel to the ocean beach, where ample provision will be made for guests who seek diversion in this manner. Pensacola News: Capt. Ben Rochehiave of the uaval reserve is the owner of a mus tang mare, which, if yet alive, is entitled to the championship belt for swimming. Sunday night the mare left home and went into the navy yard. She was discovered Monday morning, and, when the guards at tempted to put hor out of the yard, she took to tho water, and, for an hour or more, swam around in front of the navy yard. She then struck out across the bay, and, after swimming at least three miles, landed on Santa Rosa island, in the rear of the life saving station. Crossing the island to a spot near the station, she boldly plunged into the gulf, and when last seen was well out to sea, swimming to the soothe ist. If she put back she has not lurch'd at any point west of the quarantine station, but she may have 1 tnded at some point east of it, and Capt. Rocheblave has parties living up the sound looking out for her. COMM KRC.’AL. BAVANNAH MARKETS. Office Morning News, I Savannah, Ga., Sept. 20. 1800. f Cotton—The market was steadier.

The stock market to-day was very quiet and heavy to weak from the opening to the close, with the result of leaving almost everything traded in lower than la it evening. The strong tone whicu existed la3t evening did not las.. over till this morning, and London especially was not inclined to buy, while arbitrage brokers were sellers at the opening. The bears then went in to take the market away from them, and meeting practically no resistance, ham mered the list ad along the line. The down ward movement met with no check, and open ing prices at** generally the highest of the day, while the closing are the lowest. Industrial stocks received most attention, but even Lackawanna w is prominent for its losses, ami these were followed by Grangers. Dealings in the remainder of the list were and evoid of special feature, but they all felt the weakneis and yielded slowly un a very small volume of busi ness. Missouri Pacific, however, was proini eit for its activity, out was remarkably well held, and its final loss is only % percent. Trusts were early a fair mark for operations of bears, and from first transactions they yielded, fol lowed by St, Paul. It was not uutil tbe last hour that Lackawanna became promin *nr, but it declined rabidly, and scored a material loss before the clos*.
