Waynesboro True Citizen: Joe Carter
(colored) and his wife, having no children to
amuse their idle momenta, on last Sunday
interested themselves “monkeying" with a
pistol. As usual tho pistol was not lolded,
yet had concealed sumewh-re away down in
its peepers a small modicum of powder and
lead. There was a Hash, then a nose and
then Joe’s letter half experienced a ting
ling sensation about her right nostril,
which caused blood to flow ever so freely.
Dr. Whitehead was summoned, and his
examination showed that the little leaden
messengor had traveled up through the
nostril and found an exit by passing out
just under the left eye. She will not lose
her eyesight, neither wili her smelling be
rendered less discerning.
Augusta Herald : There may be a lesion
to Augusta in the powder explosion neur
Rome, Italy, which resulted in much de
struction to life, limb aud property. There
are now stored in this city, in the first ward,
in the southeast c rner of the old fair
grounds three powder magazines of great
capac ty, and there is a petition before ti e
city council for the establishment in
Augusta of another storage house for ex
plosives. There can bo no concealment of
the fact that residents of the first ward,
particularly in the neighborhood of
the old fair grounds, within which
enclosure the magazines are, have
felt at all times much uneasi
ness because of the proximity of so large nn
amount of explosives. In fact, proper*y
holders in the neighborhood referred to are
now taking active steps to present a united
protest to the city council in regard to the
matter. Tho presence of the magazines is
regarded by many as a constant menace to
life and property, not only in the immediate
neighborhood, hut to a large portion of the
section of tho city in which the explosives
are stored.
Congressman Jos Wheeler of Alabama is
in Augusta to attend the confederate vet
erans’reunion. Although born and reared
on a plantation near Augusta, this is the
first visit of the great confederate cavalry
man to his old home since the closing days
of the war. Indeed it will bo practically
bis first visit since he left therein 1*54 to
go to West Point. And right here there is
an interesting story about the way he
secured the appointment to the military
academy. He applied for it from the
Augusta congressman at that time, but
Gen. E. P. Alexander got it. Wheeler was,
however, determined to go, and he went to
New York aud asked Congressman
Gumming, au uncle of Hon. Joseph B. Gum
ming, who then represented a Brooklyn dis
trict. In this he failed, but by pcrsls ency
ho secured au appointment from another
New York district. After going through
West Point Gen. Whealer served in tlie
United States army in Arizona and New
Mexico among the Indians until the break
ing out of the civil war, when ho went into
the confederate army, in which, by his gal
lant and successful fight, ho arose to senior
cavalry general.
A special to tho Danville Monitor from
Madison county tells of the capture of a
devil fish iu Broad river, near Daniel's
ferry. A party of negroes were seining,
and when they hauled their nets ashore they
discovered a terrible looking fish, with
arms and legs of tremendous length. It
was ten feet in length and the two fore
limbs, or arms, contained prongs which
resembled fingers, while the other limb*
were very much in the shape of horseless.
When the negroes reached the bank and
discovered wlmt they had captured thoy il and
in terror. One of the negroes was a little’
slow, and came very near losing his
life. Tho monster gripped him arcu id the
leg with his fingers, a id he yelled terribly to
his companions for assistance. One of them
who escaped approached to within ten feet
of bis unfortunate companion aud threw an
ax at the monster. It was thrown with
terrible force, tho blade striking the fish on
the bead, which caused it to relax its hold
on the negro, who escaped. The fish ap
peared to be in pain, and its struggles were
terrible. It tangled itself no in the seine,
and finally rolled into the river, sending
forth a fearful shriek of agony as it disap
peared in the water.

hole had been dug near the tree and a large
glass jar taken out of the earth. The jar
had been broken and the contents removed
and the broken jar left there. Mr. Bolen
says he saw the hole that had been dug bv
the pine tree, which had a long Jightwood
root projecting across the road, and also saw
the broken jar. The jar had been buried so
long that the earth and clay adhered to it
tightly, and the cover had corroded to such
an extent that it coul l not be opened. Sher
man's nr i y passed through that section
during tho war, and it is supposed that some
of his soldiers buried some treasure there in
a jar by this particular tree and returned
last Friday aud got it.
On Monday a correspondent of the
Charleston .Veits and Courier wrote as
follows from Oakley, Berkeley couuty:
“About two weeks since I was told by a
friend living near Pinopolls that a few days
before that two negroes living on the place,
while walking along a road, had been
attacked by a fox. One of the negroes,
having his axe, killed it. Another fox
came into the yard, and upon being dis
turbed retreated under the corn barn growl
ing. 1 thought no more of the matter until
a few days ago when I learned that one night
last week, on a neighboring place, some
young negroes had been similarly attacked.
One had been bitten and another, who hail
been attacked, killed the fox. This caused
tne to make inquiry, aud I learned of tw o
others who have been similarly attacked.
Two days ago a medical friend told me
that, whi e visiting a place some five or s x
mile* above Binopolis, he learned of a ne
gro child who had been attacked and badly
bitten on the baud uud th.gb. N * one here
has ever heard of tbs like condition of
thing* before and cannot explain it.
Whether or not it i an epidemic of rabies
is the question asked, and the thought that
it may be causes great uueasluess. If it is,
not only U there rik from being fox-bitten,
bnt also that the disease may te communi
cated to dogs and other domestic animals."
Greenville busirees circles have been con
siderably interest* and in a transaction that
involves a cloth ng store aud j res mis some
amusing feature. Tuesday night, ab ut
8 o’clock, H. Endel, a well-known aud popu
lar Hebrew clolbiug dealer on Main stree-,
sold his stock of good* for $15,000 to L.
K >senthal, a wealthy retired merchant
of Raleigh, N. C.. woo make* his home at
Greenyifie. The trade was closed in the
presence of witnesses, and Rosenthal gave a
check on the National bank for the amount.
Mr. Roeeuthal even went *o far as to
engage the dorks who had been em
ployed by E.idl to remain with him,
and the keys of the store were turned
over to him.' Mr. Endel in a few nous
after was surpri-ed to have the keys re
turned to him with the statement that the
trade was “no go.” Acting on the advice
of his attorneys, he returned the key to Mr.
Rosenthal and remained away from the
store. The check was not cashed at the
bank because itisenthai notified the bank
not to honor it. Mr. Endel learned that
Rosenthal did not have that amount in
cosh in the bank, although he bad collater
als that would make the money forthcom
ing if he had made the arrangeme ts. Mr.
Endel has employed lawyers, and will
bring suit for the amount. In the mean
time, the store is closed, aud both men
claim that the other owus it. Rosenthal
refuses to comply with the conditions be
cause he was notin a co dition at the time
to be responsible for his acts, his friende al
leging tnat he had too many drinks ahead.
He has also employed lawyers, and will
fight the case unless it is adjusted.

FOR THE TOILET
There is no more useful or elegant ar

popular and economical liair-dressing
in the market. It causes the hair to
grow abundantly and retain the beauty
and texture of youth; prevents bald
ness, heals troublesome humors of tho
scalp and keeps it clean, cool, and
healthy. Both ladies and gentlemen
everywhere prefer Ayer’s Hair Vigor to
any other dressing for the hair. Mrs.
Lydia O. Moody ,
E. Pitts- /? ~A. „ ton, Me.,
writes; “I ft GA f Ot have used
Ayer’s Hair Vig
or for some time, and it has worked
wonders for me. I was troubled with
dandruff and falling hair, so that I was
rapidly becoming bald; but since using
the Vigor, my head is perfectly clear of
dandruff, the hair has ceased coming
out, and I now have a good growth, of
the same color as when I was a young
woman. 1 can heartily recommend the
use of Ayer’s Hair Vigorto any one suf
fering from dandruff or loss of hair.” *
