Another Burglary.
The public is hardly over the sur
prise of one burglary before another is
committed. Night before last another
daring and successful burglary was
perpetrated. This time it was Dr. J.
T. Culpepper who was the victim, and
he estimates his loss at fully $200.
The thief secured entrance to the
house through a window, and going
into the bedroom of the Doctor and
his wife, quietly secured his suit of
clothing which he had worn to the
minstrels that night, his watch, collar
and cuff-buttons, about $5 in change
and a portion of his wife’s jewelry,
consisting of gold bracelets, necklace
and other valuables which was in a
small box on the bureau. The box
was found in the front yard next morn
ing empty. Near the window through
which the thief had entered was found
an ax that had been taken from the
wood-pile on the place and it is likely
that the fellow would have silenced
any ot the family with it had they
awoke. Dr. Culpepper thinks proba
bly that the burglar thought he had
carried home the money taken in at
the entertainment, and that it was the
money he was after.
The next attraction at the opera
house will be “Field by the Euerny,’’
which will ba played here next
Tuesday. The show bills were put
up yesterday.

C., is now with Miss Laura Jones, in

See the new locals of Messrs. Reese
& Eason. They have a house full ot
the prettiest and most fashionable
crockery and hardware ever brought
to the city.
Mr. S. L. Hayes qualified, on Mon
day, as administrator on the estate of
the late S. Alexander Smith. His
bond was fixed at 8300,000. It is a
compliment to the sterling business
qualifications of Mr. Hayes, and to
his integrity, to state that he had no
trouble in giving this heavy bond.
The estate is a very valuable oue.
Mr. George Fearn keeps real estate
moving. He has recently sold two
beautiful residence lots, on Chestnut
street, out in Magoolia Place. He
sold one of them to Mr. Collins, and
the other to Mr. Ashley. Both gen
tlemen will erect nice tesidenccs.
In the advertisement of Mr. A. C.
Brown, yesterday, the word "flap”
jack, should have been used for “flat”
jack, and “Fresh” Oat flakes for
“AVest” Oat flakes. The corrections
have been made. Mr. Brown is car
rying a splendid line of choice family
groceries.
The Minstrel Show.
Monday night witnessed the open
ing of the theatrical season in Thom-
asville. Cleveland’s consolidated min
strels gave a delightful performance
to a large and appreciative audience.
While there was not much of the old
time negro minstrelsy in the perform
ance, there was much in it to amuse
and interest. The stage setting and
fittings were gorgeous, the handsom
est, by far, ever seen iu the opfera
house. The opening scene was be
wildering in the richness of the trap
pings and the striking manner of their
arrangement. The sirgiug and danc
ing Y ere good, some of the voices
being exceptionally fine. The “end
men” indulged in but few chestnuts,
most of the jokes wero flavored, with
origuality and were told in a taking
way. Flughcy Dougherty and Em-
merson were the stars. Dougherty’s
Exposition address brought down the
house. The performance of the Japs
was watched with breathless interest
It excelled anything ever put on the
boards in Thomasville.
The drill of the Egyptian Phalanx
was a brilliant series of evolutions.
This part of the performance, as were
several other features and characters,
elicited hearty npplause and eucores.
There was an absence of coarseness,
or anything approximating it Not
a blush suffused the cheek of any lady
present. It was a good, clean, credi
table minstrel entertainment.
Mar/icd.
On Sunday, Sept. 22, in Colquitt
county, at the residence of the bride’s
mother, by J. J. Norman, J. P., Mr.
AVm. Newton and Miss Lissie Barber.
After the ceremony the high contact
ing parlies, with their friends, repaired
to the residence of Mr. George F.
Newton, the groom's lather, where an
elegant entertainment was served.
Destructive Fire in Colquitt.
We regret to learn that Mr. Miles
Monk had the misfortune to have his
gin house, engine press and Qfrew
and two bales ol cotton in the seed,
thrash, &c , burned. Thursday night.
The fire was the work of an incendia
ry, and the loss was about $i*8oo,wiih
no insurance. We sincerely sympathize
with Mr. Monk, who is one of the best
men in Colquitt county. He is full of
pluck, however, and will at once repair
his loss.
<" Frost.
Those who were abroad early yes
terday morning, before the rays of old
Sol had dispelled the evidences ot the
tact, say that we had qu te a good
frost. The thermometer fell to 40A
degrees, and thick clothing was very
comtortable. The weather had turned
decidedly cool the evening previous
and overcoats were drawn on with a
decided feeling of comfort. Well, it is
time for cool weather, and we have
nothing but a welcome lor frost and a
thanksgiving tfiat the cool weather
finds us healthy, and with' no diseases
to dispel.
James Gay Killed in Colquitt.
We regret to learn, as we do from
Mr. Pyles, who came in from Moultrie
yesterday, that Mr. Jas. H. Gay was
killed on Monday evening at that
place. It seems that Mr. Gay was
under the influence of liquor to some
extent, and was making demonstrations
against Mr. Jas. Eady, who warned him
to keep off and hacked some distance
to keep out of Gay’s reach, but having
backed to M. M. Blanton’s store, as
Gay advanced on him in a threatening
attitude, Eady drove a knife into him
near the collar bone. Gay turned and
pulled, or endeavored to pull off his
coat, but fell and expired in a few min
utes. Sheriff Nelson was standing
near by, and Mr. Eady gave himself
up and informed the sheriff he consid
ered himself under arrest. As the
matter will undergo legal investigation
we refrain from giving any but the
above statements, as made to us.
The Plant Completed.
Mr. C. M. Chamberlain, who has
had charge of the work of putting in
the electric light works here, finally
turned over the plant completed, to
the home compnny Monday night.
As to. the success of liis work the
splendid lights we are having will
fully attest. Mr. Chamberlain and
wife left yesterday morning for At'
lauta.
Another Gin House Burned.
AA r e regret to learn that the gin
house, engine, cotton gin, press, cane
mill, etc., and about fifteen bales of
cotton, belonging to Hon. Tom Mein
tyre, Jr., on his Liinton place, about
18 miles from town, was destroyed by
fire on Monday night. It. seems that
the fire was communicated to the gin
house by sparks igniting the trash
surrounding the engine house, and
got under head way after the hands
had gone to lied. One of the hands
who had been visiting, uud was re
turning home, discovered the fire
about 12 o’clock and rang the bell,
and gave the alarm, but at that
time the engine house had been en
tirely consumed, and the gin house
was falling in. There were four pack
ed bales of cotton, three near the
house and one in the press, besides a
largo quantity uugiuned. It was
with some difficulty that the stock
quarters were saved. There was no
insurance, and the loss was about
82,000. Mr. McIntyre went down
last evening to look into the matter.
