2 GREETINGS TO GORDON. BE ADDRESSES AN IMMENSE AU DIENCE AT MILLSN. People Attend from ell Along ttxe Central Between Uacon and Savan nah and Between Augusta and Mtllen—The Address Well Received— Indorsed by the Meeting for senator. Millkn, Ga., Sept. 30.—Gov. John B. Gordon delivered here to-day, what is said by many who have heard him speak often, one of the best speeches of his life. There had been oDly two days' notice of bis inten tion to deliver an address here, and cold, rainy weather prevented many from at tending, there being only about TOO or 800 present, but those who did come seemed fcappv for doing so. People were here from the entire length of the Central railroad from Macon to Savannah, and from Au gusta to Millen. Gov. Gordon openen his speech by show ing his hearers that it was not only their pleasure, but their duty to posterity, to use every effort to secure good government. He said that God almighty in bis wise judg ment had created the white man bead and ruler of nations. allixxcemen appealed to. He urged the democrats to stand together. H criticised the absurdity of any one spe cific bill being acceptable to every indi vidual member of so large a brotherhood as the alliance. He reminded the farmers of his position while representing them in the Senate, and of his having urged them as far back as eighteen or twenty years ago to organize. He said the alliance being a secret organization was not objectionable to him, as he himself was a Mason, hut reminded them of the fact that when taking the oath of membership to the alliance that it was plainly said that becoming a member of the alliance should not conflict with either religious or po litical rights. The governor referred to one issue of the Alliance Partner that contained thirty-niue political and personal attacks upon him, all unwarranted and without the least provo cation, and said that the same issue <iid not contain a word about tho high tariff bill just passed, which increased the tariff on cotton ties, wrapping twine, etc. He read many letters from leading allianoemen all over the south, condemning the sub-treasury bill. VOCIFEROUSLY APPLAUDED. The governor spoke just two hours. He was frequeutly compelled to wait some time until the applause had subsided to con tinue his speech. He refuted the slander ous attacks made on his personal and political record without referring partic ularly to any one. At the end of bis address tho following resolutions were offered bv H. V. Hester of Milieu and seconded by Nathan Smith of Burke county, Batt Gay and 8. W. Allice of Bulloch county and G. W. C. Lane of Emanuel county, all alliance men: Whehksk, Tho Hon. John B. Gordon has ever proved faithful to every trust reposed in him by the people of Georgia, whether upon the battle field of the late war or in the councils of the nation; and. Whereas. We have in him a firm and un shaken coutldeuce in his ability, statesmanship. Integrity and continued devotion to his people; therefore, be it Resolved, By the democrats of Burke, Bul loch. Eniauuel and Scriven. here in mass meet ing assembled, that we indorse the Hon. John B. Gordon as a man eminently qualified to rep resent the great state of Georgia in the Senate of the Uniied staths; Resolved, fu tiler, That we request the sena tor and representatives from these four coun ties to support him for that position in the ensuing election of this state at ita next session. A HOTEL MUDDLE IN MACON. The Late Manager of the Brown House Removing tne Furnishing*. Macon, Ga., Sept. 30. —Several weeks ago the Brown house, in this city, was leased by its owuer, M. Nussbaum, to W. B. Sperry, formerly of Michigau, but lately of Auderson, S. C., the understanding be tween the parties being that the furnishings went with the house. To-morrow was the day for the new management to take charge. To-night the proprietor, Mr. Nussbaum, was informed that the manager, J. F. Sangster. who bas been in charge of tho house for several years, was removing the furniture from the house. With his lawyer he went to the hotel and found the reports true. A large part of the furnishings of the bouse had teen removed, aud • a quantity of beds and table linen were in large packing cases on the sidewalk, ready to be carried away. Investigation showed that the furnishings had been disappearing for several days post, and little beyond tho four walls of the building was left for the new man ager to take possession of. Sangster claims that the furnishings belong to him. Mr. Nussbaum disputes that claim, aud a pretty mess of it is iu prospect. RAILROADS PAY TAXES3.

Dempsey, the alliance candidate for the H >use, w o dropped dead iu Cos b county, was buried Sunday. Yesterday the alliance met and nominated J. R. Sibley, a very rampunt allianceman, in bis place.

Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 30.—The third at tempt within the last few weeks to wreck the West Point passenger train was made five miles from LaGrange last night.

Madison, Fla., Sept. 30. John H. Rowe, census enumerator of one of tho dis tricts in this county, has recoivod notice from the oensus office at Washington that his pay would be withheld unless he re ported more deaths in his district. Ho re ported only one death as ocourring during the ceusus year, and as be is a gentleman of known integrity, it is presumed that he would make a correct, report. It is now nearly three months since the enumerators completed their work, but no money has been paid them yet. Our artesian well has reached a depth of 250 feet, where they have struck hard rock. A. Livingston, who has been speudiug several months on a visit to relatives iu Scotland, aud traveling over the continent, ie expected home in a few days. His famiiy, who have been summering at Clarksville, Ga., returned home a few days ago. Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Bass, who have been iu the jewelry and millinery and notion business in this place for the post eight years, havo pulled up stakes and are now located at Lake Park, Ga. Florida Trees Embracing Bach Other. Sanford, Fla., Sept. 28.—There is a tree, or trew, in front of Mr. Boyd’s saw mill that is a curiosity. A hickory and magnolia, each fully two feet in diameter, have grown solidly into each other from the roots to some distance up, the bark covering the whole without seam or break. —Falatka Herald. A curiosity similar to this can be seen near Tarpon Springs, Hillsborough county, where a pine a: and oak have liuked their fortunes in strange wedlock. They are known far and near as the pine and oak, aud many an artist has carried awav their counterfeit presentiment— Sanford Jour nal, Yet another curiosity not very dissimilar, but less widely known, may be seen in the Amnettoliga hammock, just outside the corporate limits of Brooksville, Hernando county, where a thrifty and overshadowing hickory is holding a less thrifty and over shadowed sweet-gum in its unvielding grasp, reminding one of the mfiuenoe of a strong-minded, evil-hearted, wicked young man over a weaker minded but better hearted and misled young man. Caution: Let young men of good morals and good habits beware of the association of young men of bad morals and evil habits* least they And themselves after a while so com pletely grasped in their clutches, or rather in the clutches of the master of them both— Natan, as to he unable to affect an escape from utter ruin. Paul Willis. The Orange County Primary. Orlando, Fla., Sept. 30.—The returns of tiie democratic primary in this county to nominate county o’fficers indicate the nomination of Mahlon Gore, editor of the Orange County Reporter, and B. F. Whit ner of Sanford, for representatives. Both are anti-Call men. and favor Hammond for the Seuate. For assessor W. C. Nutt of this place is undoubtedly nominated, as are also Jamas A Knox for treasurer, and I. W. C. Parker for collector, who had no opposition. The circuit clerk (unexpired term) is in doubt with D. 8. Shine, a little ahead of J. N. Bradshaw. Nearly 1,500 votes were cast, so far as heard from, and everything was quiet. The republicans will hold a conven tion and nominate a ticket. Prominent Fernandina Physician Dead. Fernandina, Fla., Sept 30.— Dr. Will iam Henry Pope, the oldest and one of the prominent physicians of Fernandina, well known in medical circles throughout the southern states, died at his residence in this city 3 p. m. to-day of peritonitis, after a short illness. For a disordered liver try Beecham’s Pills. —.4 dr.

West Vir ginia. Louis Fitzgerald, chairman of the purchasing committee of first and general mortgage bondholders, was the bidder. The sale was conducted by Judge William J. Robertson aud A. Mo,ire, Jr., commission ers. Fitzgerald was the first bidder at $7,100,0001 N. J. Tubbs, Mr. Hale, an en gineer of this city, raised the bid $50,000, but failed to comply with the terms of sale, as he was unable to make a spot cash payment of $75,000. He asked to be allowed until 3 o’clock p. m., saying be could pat up the money by that ’ time. This offer was re jected and the sale reopened. Fitzgerald again made the same and only bid and closed the sale by turning oyer a oertiflod check for $75,000. As the Norfolk and Western holds the majority of the bonds of the Shenandoah Valley railroad, the road will now pass into its control. A special term of court will bo held here about the middle of October to receive and act upon the report of the sale. If it is confirmed the receiver will imme diately turn the road oyer to the Norfolk and Western. A BIG CHICAGO BLAZE. Firemen Burled Under a Falling Wall. Had a Narrow Escape. Chicago, Sept. 30. —A disastrous fire broke out in the building owned by Warren Spring, at No. 171 Canal street, and burned fiercely for hours. The first floor of the building was occupied by G. Frankland & Cos., dealers in picture frames and mold ings. The third and upper floors were oc cupied by the Mills Railroad Gate Company. The fire spread to the next buildmg on the south, ow: ed by Lehman & Sons, and occupied on the lower floors by Charles Emerick, feather dealer. Emorick’s loss will be heavy. FIREMEN BURIED IN THE RUINS. The south wall of the Spring building fell, burying Engine Company No. 17 be neath tho ruins, it is not known how many were killed, but it is certain that some met their death. Loss $250,000.

Prlestß Detained on Shipboard on Account of the Labor Law. Philadelphia, Sept. 30.—Rev. Dr. H. A. Monkeriberg and Rev. Dr. J. Loenge rath, Catholic priests from Europe, who arrived at this port on the steamship Belgen land to-day, are detained under the contract labor law. The priests acknowledge that they were hired to come to this country as teachers in the Catholic college at St. Paul, Minn., founded by Bishop Ireland. The matter has been referred to the customs au thorities, aud the two priests will be de tained ou board tho Belgeulaud pending a decision. AN ENGINEER KILLED. A Freight Train Runs Full Tilt Into a Switch Engine. Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 30.— T0-day, on the main line of the Louisville aud Nash ville road near Warrior, Engineer M. B. Johnson lost his life in a collision. The south-bound freight train raa full tilt into a switch engine aud two cars, a misunder standing of orders by the engineer of the latter being the cause of the accident. Both engines and many cars were wrecked. William Biiley, a brakeman, was seriously hurt, und Isaac Patterson and R. E. Part low slightly bruised. Johnson came from Fayetteville, N. C. An Ex-Congressman for Sheriff. Chicago, Sept. 83.—Congressman Frank Lawler was to day unanimously nomin ated for sheriff by the democrats. On tho ticket with Lawler are ex-Congreswnan J. H. Ward, for supreme judge, and Mrs. M. A. Mulligan, for superintendent of schools.

Early had a narrow escape from death this afternoon. He was standing ia front of a building on Main street which was re cently burned, when suddenly and without a moment’s warning the wall fell, burying him in a mass of debris.

Jasper, Fla., Sept 30.—The democratic convention to-day nominated J. F. Staples and J. L. Morgan for the House and John F. Smith, Sr., for the Seuate. RAIL AND C8043T18. In addition to the street railway Macon now has a number of wealthy and promi nent men who havo applied for a charter for the Ocmulgee Street Railway Company, to lie operated by electricity. The capital stock will be SIOO,OOO. It is thought that the injunction served on the Mac m and Dublin raiir ad officials by the administrators of the Nelson estate will not stop the work of construc tion more than a week. The tract of land to be crossed is not more than 200 or 300 yards wide. An electric railway is to be constructed between Seattle and Tacoma, Wash., a dis tance of forty-two miles. Tuis will be the longest electric road in existence, and its successful and economical operation will go far to demonstrate the feasibility of apply ing electric motive pow r to railways of very much greater length. The Charleston and Savannah railway will not disoonti .ue its cheap Sunday ex cursions from Savannah to Charleston and return until the last Sunday m October. These excursions are verv popular, and the road carries largo crowds every Sunday from Savannah to Cnarleston and also from Charleston to Savannah. A railroad man who has been railroadirg for a number of years says he has never known freight cars so scarce. At this sea son of the year every road is pushed and keops the car accountant hustling. The present scarcity has been felt for over a year. Most of the lines have big orders placed with car shops, and the stringency may be relieved when these orders are filled. The survey of the extension of tho Mem phis and Charleston railroad from Owen to Tracy, on Walden’s ridge, has been com pleted. The surveyed disianoe between the two points is fourtee i miles. The distance from Tracy to Dunlap is forty-one miles; from Dunlap to Fix villa, twenty miles. The entire route from Dunlap to Pike ville has been graded and six miles are laid with track. Charles H. Cromwell, formerly of Macon, and for some time traffic manager of the Western of Alabama and the Atlanta and W est Point railroads, has tendered his resignation to accept the position of general manager of the Atlantic and Danville rail road. It is currently believed that R. E. Lutz, at present ge era! ageut of the West ern of Alabama and the Atlanta and West Point railroads, will succeed Mr. Cromwell. Mr. Lutz was for sixteen years in the em ploy of the Louisville and Nashville, hold ing several responsible positions. * An Americus telegram to the Atlanta Constitution gives the Americus side of the cotton freighting wrangle between the Cen tral and the Americus C impress Company. It says: “All the cotton iu this section is being handled by tne Savannah, Americus and Montgomery railroad, and os the crop here is earlier by some weeks than else where, the bulk of it will have gone before the Central can succeed iu stopping the movement, even if the commission snould decide in their favor. It is needless to say that public sentiment here is solidly with tho Savannah, Americus a id Montgomery rail road, right or wroDg, as it is regarded as a home institution that must be sustained at all hazards.” E. P. Goodman, the general freight agent of the Sa vannan, Americus and Montgomery rail road, says that there is no trouble between tho Savannah, Americus and M ntgomery and the Central railroids, but only between the latter and the cotton shippers and the Americus, Preston and Lumpkin compress, in which the Savannah, Americus and Montgomery railroad has no interest ac count. No rebat.-s are being paid, either directly or indirectly, by his road, nor have rates been cut from any points by him by means of which cotton is diverted to this place. If any rebates are being paid to the cotton shippers his road has no knowledge of it nor connection with it. The rate from Fort Valley to Sq vanah, via Americus, is the same as via Macon and from other non-competitive points along the Southwestern. The Savan nah, Americus and Montgomery road has the legal and traffic right to give a rate to tho ports via Americus, not less than the Central's iocal rates to Savannah, the Sa vannah, Americus aud Montgomery, of course, paying the Central’s iocal to Americus out of the t.irough rate given. Mr. Goodman would have it inferred that the cotton coming via Americus is merely tho result of the exercise of a choice of routes by the shippers at equal rates, and that, therefore, no rate cutting or rebates are necessary even if legal. Sanford Siftings. Sanford, Fla., Sept. 30.— 1 tis reported, but not officially, that the following gentle men were successful in the democratic primary election on Saturday, Sept. 27: B. F. Whitner and T. J. Shine, for legislature; D. S. Shine, clerk of court; W. C. Nutt, assessor of taxes; I. W. C. Parker, collector of revenue; James A. Knox, county treas urer. Tnis is for Orange county. Sanfordites who have been away during tho summer months, visiting iu various sections of the country, are many of them returning home now. * Business is assuming livelier aspects now. Fresh snap beans, young turnips and other vegetables are beginning to come in at a livelier rate. The Grief-Stricken Empress of Austria. Paris tetter in London Truth. The figure, having stiffened, has lost the flexible elegance which was so admired at the Meiton Mowbray meets. But it still is lady-like. The face betrays infinite suffer ing, and has the drawn expression of dry eyed grief, which is the worst of any. I was also struck with the da kened color of the hair and the pale reddish streaks—cer tain signs of silver gray. Her eyes are still lovely, but have a (lazed and startled ex pression. I fancy she hardly realizes the causes of the grief from which she tries to escape. As to her dress, it was the plainest aud commonest mourning. A nun could not have been more unadorned. As the fit was not perfect, I dare say it was bought readv-umde. When the empress went into the street she went and stood at a print shop wiudow, to bo (I dare say) quits sure sho was not followed, and then walked down a side street to Saint Roche. Her Btep is now unelastic, and she seemed not to feel the ground under her feet, walking as if they were “asleep.” jjjggp 'iw\ The importance of purifying the blood can not he overestimated, for without pure blood you cannot enjoy good herdth.
