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. Miss Gertrude Jones, of Charleston, S. C.. will arrive in the city afternoon, and will be ihe guest of Mr. and Mrs. Mac Reese, on Dawson street, for some time. Mr. Allie Pringle, of the iftd Front Grocery, has gone to New York to buy stock. Mr. Pringle will take in AA’nshington City, and other p tints of interest while gone. Miss Mary Pickard, of Raleigh, N. C., is now with Miss Laura Jones, in the capacity of sales lady. And she has some of the moat stylish millinery to show, ever seen here. 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. Tho Approaohing Fair. The general'committccs appointed to take into consideration measures looking to the complete success of our approaching Fair and Barbecue met yesterday morning at the City Hall. Capt. N. I{. Spangler was called to the chair and on motion, J. >S. Mon- gomery was requested to act as secre tary. The committee on contributions, made their report and asked for fur- ther time which was granted. On mo tion the committee was empowered to add to their number as many names as they think proper.

Sect’y. The attention ot our Colquittread- ers is called to the medical card of Dr. G. C. I.aney, of Moultrie, who has moved to Colquitt county, and is pur suing the practice of medicine, in the office formerly occupied by Dr. Ham mond. Dr Laney is a capable and affable gentleman, and seems to be occupying the field in that section.
