Among the coses just settled in Bibb su

Macon and Augusta railroad. The costs of
the case were assessed to the Georgia Kail
road and Banking Company and the Macon
and Northern.
A thrilling story is told here by a party
of ladies and gentlemen who made a visit
to the famous saltpeter cave near Carters
ville last week. While roaming about in
the dark, damp chambers of the cave they
discovered in the center of one of the bat
rooms a newly dug grave. Beside the grave,
wtiioh was only half filled with fresh earth,
was a wheelbarrow and a spade. They did
not wait to solve the mystery, but fled pre
cipitately from the cavern. The mystery
may be further looked into.
Billy King’s little boy of Yahocla dis
trict, Lumpkin county, was out picking
berries a few- days ago and a bird sitting on
a bush near the ground attracted his atten
tion. He throw some rocks at it but it re
fused to move. He concluded to go up to
it and capture it in his hat. Just at that
tome, when he made his pass at the bird, he
discovered a large rattler on the ground
just under win-re the bird was sitting. He
dropped his hat and the monster struck at it
and coiled himself in the hat. He threw a
rock and crippled the snake and went for
assistance, and it was killed. It was
feet long and as large in proportion.
Frank Eddleman, who formerly lived in
Atlanta, was killed in Cnicago Sunday.
The killing occurred in a private boarding
house. Ed lleman and a young man named
William Cannon had a fight, and a bad feel
ing existed between them. Sunday night
Eddleman, accompanied by another young
man, went to Cannon’s room. Cannon says
they attacked him with razors, and that he
fired a shot from a pistol to save his life.
Eddleman fell with a bullet in his brain',
and the other young man escaped. Eddle
man was about li-i years of age, and was a
of Joe Eddleman, who travels for a
Boston bouse, James Edd.emau, wtio re
sides in Montreal, Canada, mid Mrs. H. A.
Purteil, who resides in Atlanta. He live 1 in
Atlanta about two years ago. The remains

Albany Neies and Advertiser: A Maine
farmer recently sent a lu-eeni slump to a
man that advertised to send tor that amount
the way to run a farm without
being trouble! with potato bugs. The
answer re eived was ns follows:
"Plant fruit trees imt-ad of pota
toes.” The Maine farmer’s experience was
cot quite as costly as that of two citizens of
Albany a few years ago who, in answer to
an advertisement, sent $1 each to secure a
recipe to kill the dreaded nut grass. The
advertiser got his dollars, and the two citi
zens of Albany were rewarded with the
recipes. Each one on opening the epistle
felt like hiring a mule to kick him for a
week as he read these sententious but em
phatic words: “Move away, you
fool.” They have never answered any
more advertisements.
Mayor R. W. Milner of Conyers is in
trouble. He wants to organize a militari
company in his town for the protection of
the law-abiding, property-holding people,
but be cannot do it. There is no military
money in the staie treasury, that is not
now being used, but the indications are that
there will be still less in a very short time.
Mr. Milner called on Gov. Northen the other
day to tell him about a serious trouble.
No more military companies cau be ■ r
ganized at present. This stats of affairs
will be rendered worse if the bill introduced
by Representative Rainey of Cobb to with
draw all the military appropriation be
comes a law. Gov. Northen lias called a
meeting of the military advisory board for
the morning of Friday, July 24, but the
members of the board will have to pay
their own railroad fares as well as their ex
penses at the hotel.
Macon Telegraph: The building iu
Macon for the month of June footed up to
*27,670 within the city limits. According
to the list of permits in the city hall this
shows a decrease iu the amount of building
done in June, as compared with the previ
ous month, but considering the hot
weather and the fact that the most expen
sive building among the number was to
cost 84,000, the total makes it appear that
Macon is growing in every di
rection. These statistics kept at
the city ball do not in any way refer to the
building that is going on in the suburbs.
Huguemn heights has grown from a baby
into a giant, aud the sound of the saw and
hammer never ceases there, except on Sun
day. Sunset park, Uellevue, Vineville, East
Macon, South Macon, and in fact the most
of the residence districts, are all expected,
but are nevertheless doing proportionately
more building than the other city districts.
Albany Sew a and Advertiser: About S
o'clock Friday morning as Officer Kemp i
was marching down Broad street, be espied ;
a flock of eleven goats marching down the |
street serenely surveying the sunoucdings
and enlivening the "darkest hour by the
sweet music of their clari n voices. • utlcer
Kemp, ever vigilant against o(Tenders
against tne city ordinance, bethought
himself of the stock law, which prohibits
cattle and bogs from run dug at large on
the street. So he straight"ay commanded
the company of g jats t 1 "c ilumn right to
the city p uud, and, aidei by three sons
of Ham. bo finally succeeded in get
ting the company > n . ,I ® vf
quarters after an n ur's "exhibition drill
on Broad street and Court House avenue.
It is said that tie maneuvers oL Officer
Kemp and b.s aids was highly credit ible to
tbe old veteran, but it seen,s that the
owners of the goats didu t like the idea of
their pe ? s being entertained by the city, 8 )
thev called up Mayor Gilbert to “pay them
out*” His honor not having such a ques
ti .n bef re him lately, sought the law on
the subject in the city code Imagine his
disappointment when, after diligent search,
he could find no law prohibiting goats from
taking possession of the streets, so the goats
went free. Officer Kemp is in the "soup'’
t the am unt of 61. an he si>ent that
am >unt in the way of reward to his "aids”
in he’'drill.”
Brunswick Times: On Saturday Jnly IX,
j> .S. Harris went from Darien, to
Atkins >n on the Brunswick and Western
railroad arriving ou the 8 o’clock train. He
made inquiry fr a conveyance to rideout to
Hortense, a distance of ten miles in the
country, finding none at his command, aud
that the turpentine wagon belonging to
B. O. Middleton & Son was going
to Hortense. Mr. Harris proposed to
W. C. Meltou, a white man who was driv
ing the wagon, to ride with him.
Melton consented. They started
After driving one mile from
the station, they overtook two young
men standing by the roadside. Mr. Melton
recognized them as John Baker aud Henry
Luther, two suspicious characters, stopping
iu the community of John W. Taylor, who
lives about half way between Atkinson and
Hortense. These men mounted the wagon
as it passed them remarking that they had
to rile. Everything passed off pleasantly
until they reached a small branch about
100 yards from Taylor’s house. There Mr.
Harris asked that the wagon lie stopped
until he could get a drink of waier from
the brook. Mr. Harris got out of the wagon
and so did baker and Luther. Mr. Harris
kneeled down by the stream, drank, refilled
the cun and rose to offer it to one of the
others, when to his great surprise both Ra
ker and Luther had their pistols in his face
with the demand, "Throw up your hands,
we want vour money and will have it or
your life.” Mr. Harris remarked to them
tuat they had the advantage of him and he
felt powerless in their bauds and in loss
time than it takes to tell it Luther had gone
through his pockets taking abuut 685 in
cash, his watch ands une other articles.
Mr. Harris then asked them to be consider
ate and not leave him penniless. They
agreed to return bis w atch and a small por
eion of the money which was done. Then
Luther and Baker ordered Mr. Harris to
gotou the wagon and 3ay nothing as to
what had happened.

Tarpon Springs Truth: Capt. Kendall
has lately finished for himself a very tine
canoe, made of pine and covered with can
vas. It is a model of workmanship, and re
flects much credit upon the captain as a
canoe builder. It will weigh less than 100
pounds, is about sixteen feet long and is so
constructed that it will ride a very rough
sea safely. The captain expects to spend
many pleasant hours in it. George Turn
paw has also recently built a very pretty
canoe of pine covered with canvas, and we
believe that there ib a prospect of Tarpon
Springs having a canoe club t-efore long.
Mr. Hafner has a canoe, and finds canoeing
a very pleasant pastime.

Tne talk of Ocala I* the iuclosure of
"hell’s half acre ’’ by E. W. Agnew, and of
which W. P. Haisiey claims ownership.
This took place Wednesday night, aud dur
ing ttie absence of Mr. Haisiey in Tampa,
but L. J. Haisiey hearing of it, went to the
scene of action, demanded that the men
cease work, and ordered them off of the
property. Words followed, and the upshot
of the matter was that Mr. Haisiey
was arrested for disorderly con-
duct, while he served the iDjunc
tion on Mr. Agnew and his lawyer
R. L. Anderson, restraining them from
trespassing or occupying the laud. It is
understood that W. P. Haisiey claims the
land by a tax title, and Mr. Agnew through
purchase of Elizabeth Jackson, a negro
woman now deceased. The land has been
in litigation for a number of years, and as
Ocala increases in population and lands be
come more valuable, which is the case in
this instance, as the property is on Exposi
tion street, one block from the square, this
piece is greatly coveted. The end is not yet
in this matter.
Satui day evening Miss J. Lee Ritchie of
Punta G ;>rda wrote a note to Howard R.
Bivens requesting him to call, which he
did. He has been paying her attentions
for several months. About 1 o’olock Sun
day morning a pistol shot was heard at her
house, followed by screams of the young
lady to the effect that she had killed How
ard—that she did it for love. It appiears
that she contemplated killing herself also.
The pistol was a hammerless Smith & Wes
son. The first arrival at the scene found
Bivens out of the house shot near the heart.
He walked to his home,g? one-third
of a mile distant. Miss Ritchie had the
pistol in her hand trying to rearrange it
after he was shot. Bivens evidently caught
the pistol and unbreached it, throwing out
the shells. She was trying to readjust it
when the pistol was taken away from her.
Bivens having left, she said she had loved
and had shot her lover. He is a handsome
blonde of 23 years, and is cashier of the
bank here; quite a gentleman so far as is
known. He has behaved well in this shoot
ing accident. Miss Ritchie is from Tennes
see. She arrived at Punta Gorda with her
father and mother five years since. Her
father died about six months ago, and she
is living with her widowed mother.
She is a handsome brunette.
The animus of the affair is unknown.
The young lady aud gentleman brighten
all the social events of the town. Of late
Bivens has not been paying her the same
attention as formerly. In justice to him
she has been receiving attention from an
other, which she did, however, while
Bivens was most attentive. Col. Isaac H.
Trahua has volunteered his services as
council and is conducting htr case. W. B.
Harden is tbe justice. The young man is
doing as well as could be expected, but the
wound is serious.
