Atlanta, Ga., July 8., 10 p. m.—
The great fight between John L. Sul
livan, who,holds the championship
belt of the world, and Jake Ivilrain,
the Baltimore pugilist, came off this
.morning at Ricltburg, Miss., 105 miles
frdln New Orleans. The men stood
up to each other through 75 rounds,
both showing great pluck and endur
ancc. At the end of the 75th round
Kilrain failed to come to time and
Sullivan was declared the winner,
Neither of the combatants was seri
ously injured, though Kilrain showed
up very weak at the end of the mill.
To Kilrain belongs the honor of the
first fall and he drew the first blood
from the great champion. Sullivan
got in tho first square knock down
The fight lasted two hours and eigh
teen minutes.
Constitution.
The History of the Johnstown Flood.
This is a fast age.
Scarcely a month has passed since
the great Johnstown flood thrilled the
world with the tales ot terror, and
already an exhaustive history of the
great disaster, giving the horror, has
been published in book form.
Mr. Johnnie Vaughan has secured
the agency for the book for Thomas
ville, and will be glad to have his
friends and the public drop in at Moore
& Williams and leave orders for "it.
The volume contains about 400 pages
and ts fully illustrated. It reads like a
talc of romance, and wherever the
story of the great flood has been told
it will find readers.
Railroad Racket.
Application has been made to the
legislature lor a charter for the Augus
ta and West Florida railroad. This
new road proposes to go directly from
Augusta to Cordcle. The road that
Thomasvillc will build to Cordcle will
form an important link in this new
road.
The strongest attraction that Thom
asville can offer to roads pointing in
her direction, is the building of the
new outlet to Cordelc. With this out
let Thomasville will be the railroad
center of south Georgia. Have you
taken stock in the company that will
build it?
Weighed and Found Wanting.
Rev. J. H. Berbener preached an
excellent sermon last Sabbath, from
the text that frightened the midnight
orgies of Belshazzar: “ThtfiP art
weighed and found wanting.” He
drew many excellent lessons that are
calculated to stimulate men and wom
en to escape the fate that came to the
King of Babylon.

They Arc Not Ripe.
The Timks-Enterpeise has taken
occasion on several occasions to warn
the growers of LcCoutc pears against
shipping the fruit before it was grown.
This warning has been entirely un
heeded, for the pears are going for
ward with a rush. At first only the
wind shakes were shipped, but the
prices realized for them were so good
that now the growers are pulling the
fruit from tho trees and shipping.
It is not ripe, it is not even two-
thirds grown. Granting that it will
mellow after keeping it for weeks, it
will be insipid and flavorless, and the
result will he that the pear will gain a
had reputation as an eating fruit.
There can be only one result that can
follow such a reputation, loss in the
future. Ever since the ancients got
in a great hurry to secure the golden
eggs that were being laid by the
fabled goose, and killed the poor bird
to secure the fruit in advance of the
natural course of such events, men
have been guilty of the same folly—
and tin’ pear growers of south Georgia
arc following their foolish example
with great haste.
The LcOonte has nothing to fear
front competition with the best fruits
of the world, if it is only allowed to
mature before it is pulled, But
coming into competition, active and
sharp as it does, with the products of
the well nigh matchless soil and cli
mate of California, and the best fruit
sections of the North and East, it is
nothing but fair that it should be al
lowed at least au equal chance.
A Times-Entekprisi: reporter ha;
made a personal inspection of some of
the very finest groves in the county,
and lie is prepared to say that to ship
the fruit now is putting a premium
on low*priccs when the fruit is in fine
order, and inviting a stigma on the
reputation of the pear that will out
last the meagre profits that come from
the first few shipments of green fruit.
Lodged in Jail.
A. M. Uossnthal, the New York
sharper who fleeced tho melon grow
ers along the line of the 8*. F. & \V.
Ry. out of something like JO cars of
melons hv means of bogus drafts, has
been safely lodged in jail in Quitman.
After iie lmd played his little game
hero as long as lie could, he went to
the Central road and began it once
again. He was arrested in Eufattla
at the instance of a grower at Lees
burg, Ga., but paid his way out and
was making for New York. At At
lanta he was again arrested to answer
the charges prcferiod by Quitman
parties. Sunday night the Shcrifl of
Brooks county passed through our
city with the sharper and lie is now
safely behind (lie bars. Ho has made
several appeals to his confederate, one
15. C. Fuller, of New York, to come
to his aid, hut up to this time Mr.
Fuller .seems content to pocket the
profits and leave Rosenthal to pocket
the punishment.
f^o far as we have learned only one
Thomas county man, Mr. T. C. Htan-
alaml, of Boston, was caught. Mr.
Staualand has 8100 more of experi
ence than he had when the season
opened.
A Burglar Fined.
John Anderson, the little negro boy
that went into Alien Wyyhc’s home
and robbed him of a sum of money
while the family were away several
nights ago, plead guilty to larceny
from the house yesterday before Judge
Mitchell. Me was fined 8500 or in
default thereof to work on the public
works for twelve months. lie will go
on the gang.
An Opera House for Boston.
The public spirited citizens of our
thrifty little neighbor arc determined
to have a place of amusement that
will invite a better class ot companies
than have heretofore visited them.
A company of gentlemen are putting
in new scenery iu I’hilouiathic ^Hall

convenience of the public.
Tompprancc Lcctuies.
Mr. Ilowrcn will lecture at the
Methodist church to-night and to
morrow night- under tho auspices of

Union, on the subject of Temperance.
Mr. 11. is an eloquent speaker, and
ought to have a fine audience.
Dr. J. G. Hopkins’ family, who
have been spending some time at
Marietta, have gone to Tate Springs,
Tcnn,, to spend the remaining part of
tho season/
The Gorman Last Night. 8
The German given by the young
men last night, at German Hall, in
honor of Miss India Hunter, was a
very pleasant aflair.
The murky clouds that had ob
scured the sky during the afternoon,
were partially dissipated after night
fall, and the pale-faced moon raado
most paiscwortliy efforts to pierce the
thin haze of clouds, as the face of a
beautiful woman sometimes strives to
make itself seen through an envious
veil.
When the reporter looked in on
the scene, his eyes were met by a vision
of fairy-like forms gently moving to
the strains of inspiring music.
The following couples participated:
Mr. and Mrs. Love Wilder.
R. G. Dickinson with Miss India
Hunter.
Mr. S. A. Smith with MissSallie
Stark.
Mr. A. A. Riley with Miss Annio
Scott.
Air. W. F. Edmondson with Miss
Annie Paine.
Mr. W. L. Willingham with Miss
George Mitchell.

nie West, of Chicago.
Mr. and Mrs. Love Wilder led the

sion merchants, New York, appears in

this reliable house, has been in this sec-
lion for some time and his consign

ter titan all, satisfactory. The Times-
Enterprise can, from knowledge,
recommend Olivit Brothers to its
