hour set for the bearing. This branch
ol the case was known as the Pidcock
claim, aud under this settlement the
mills were leased to Pidcock & Crib-
Dies for six months. The lessees will
resume work on December ist. This

Annie Abbott, better known as the
“Little Georgia .Magnet,” gave-an
exhibition of her. wonderfol powers
before n rather small audience at the
open house Thursday night. The
majority of onr people looked upon
Mrs. Abbott aa a "fake.” They did
not belieye she possessed any of the
supernatural powers she is credited
with. They thought all of her mar,
velous feats were dono by slight and
muscular power, and tliat almost any
one else with the earns practice tnd
experience could perform the same
feats. To this lee’iog nu doubt is due
the small attendance There were
many in the audience who were
•keptica before the performance be
gan, bat it is pretty safe to say that
they were converted before the little
lady had exhibited half of her dif
ficult feata-
Mrs. Abbott woa brought before
the audience by her manager, who
gave a brief account of her history.
By request the following gentlemen
took seats on the stage and agreed to
become subjects for the tests of the
'Little^ Magnet’s** power: H. W.
Hopkins, J. L. Pringle, L_F, Thomp
son, S. Richey ( B. F. Hawkins, W.
C. Snodgrass, A. H. 'Palin, J. H.
Merrill, J. E. B. Love, L H. Jerger,
Dr, P. A. McIntosh and Dr, Hutch-
infism.
The force of Mrs Abbott on-y
manifested itself when her fheh came
contact with tha* of her subject.
There was no responds at all when
even as much as a si’k haudkerchiel
intervened.
The first test-has ihv holding of a
chair by one of the c-unmittee, who
encircled it with his arms. At the
toach of Mrs. Abbott’s hand upon
the chair tbo holder was moved
around the stage at her wi'L
She next held the chair loosly in
her bands, and the combined efforts
of two of the strongest men on the
stage could not put it to the fl >or.
Mrs. Abbott then held a round
stick in her open hands almost per
pendicularly. Three men cou’d not
force it to the floor, though they
strained every nerve and the ‘ Litt’o
Magnet” showed no signs of exertion.
Then came the moat interesting test
of aU, that <»t lifting Mrs. Abbott
from the stege. She weigh s only 104
pounds, and with handkerchiefs be*
tween his hands and her flesh any one
of tbe committee could readily lift
her, but when the handkerchiefs were
removed she was as immovable as a
stone wall. Each member of the
committee tried it but failed. Then
two. then three, and finely six men
united their strength to raise her, but
she was as if nailed to the floor. Dir.
McIntosh and Hutchingson let Mrs.
Abbott stand on their bands and
another effort was made to lift her.
They stated that there was no diminu
tion in her weight while the attempts
were being made.
Six men could nit move Mrs Ab
bott, although she stood on one beeE
She held a long stick in her open
hands, which was grasped by six men,
but they could not budge her an
inch.
Another remarkable feat
formed by Mrs. Abbott was the lift
ing of five of the heaviest men on the
committee who were seated one upon
the other in a chair. Bhe put the palms
of her hands on each side of the chair
and easily raised it from Uie floor. To
demonstrate that this was not accom
plished by muscular power, the two
doctors put their hands between Mrs.
Abbott’s bands and the chair. Bbe
again lifted the heavy load. The
doctors say they felt no pressure upon
theif hands.
Three boys were called upon the
stage from the audience. Mrs. Ab
bott took their hands and the com
mittee was invited to lift them. They
tried, but ' the boys seemed to have
taken root. Theyooufd notlse lifted
an inch.
Many other wonderful feats were
performed during the evening.
The performance was an entirely
satisfactory onq in every respect.
The ‘‘Little Magnet” did all she
advertised to do, and a more 4>t^x\ed
crowd of men than the committee
when they came off the stage would
be hard to find. They all say that
the littli woman possesses Wonderful
powers, but they do not know whether
it is electricity, magnetism, hypnotism,
spiritualism or what.
-_ . Another Fire.
Thomasville hid another Are early
yesterday morning, which mokes the
third within the past ten days. About
three o’clock Mr. S. B. VanDyke,
who lives in the Chase house in Fearn*
aide, was awakened -by a roaring
sound and jumping out-of bed found
his barn, which is near the dwelling,
on fire. A glance showed that it
would be useless to try to save the
barn, so he directed aU his efforts to
keeping the house from catching, one
end of which was already smoking.
With the assistance of some neighbors
he succeeded in doing this, but the
fiimes consumed the barn and ex*
tended to other out-bouses, including
woud house, chicken ,house, etc.
These'were soon reduced to ashes, to
gether with their, contents. The
chicken bcuse contained a number oi
chickens and turkeys' and there were
about eleven cords of wood in the
wood house. Mr. B. D. Ainsworth
had a lot of furniture stored in the
barn, which was also destroyed.
Noue of the property was insured ex
cept the furniture, which had $75 on
The fire is clearly tho work of
an incendiary. These houses were
located only about one hundred yards
from the former home of Mrs. Sr J.
Jones, which was destroyed about a
week ago. Owing to tho distance
from the city proper no alarm was
given and of course the department
did not turn out. There i* no water
in the viciflity and had the depart
ment gone to the fire it would have
been unable to do anything.—Daily
T.-E. Nov. 19.
Thinks ItTs Muscle.
Dr. P. A.» McIntosh, one of the
committee who tested Annie Abbott’s
wonderful power at the opera house
Thursday evening, doesdiot believe
that it is electricity, magnetism, hyp
notism. spiritualism or any other ism,
but that it is well developed and
trained muscles. Below is a card be
writes to the Time 3 Enterprise giv
ing his opinion:
Ed. Times-Enterprise :
Ia y.our report of the exhibition of
Annie Abbott you say ia speaking of
the opinions of the committee:
They all eay ths little woman pos
sesses wonderful powers, belt they do
>t know whether it is electricity,
magnetism, hyp autism, spiritualism
what.”
While you do not say they believe
that her power was due .to these
forces or to some other occult force,
you as much infer. Will you allow
me just space enough to say that I,
being one of the committee, do not
concur ia this opinion. She no doubt
possessed of wonderful power, but I
believe that power consists in well
developed and trained muscles, c>m
bined with a well trained knowledge
of the physical forces necessary for
the accomplishment of her feats.
Mau’s regard for woman’s modesty is
another important factor with which
she avails herself.

the Savannah Morning News of the

In one column a “woman” upholds

of a trial would add to the agony of
the victim of the nameless crime. In
the other column we read of a man
who was restored to freedom after
Buffering thirteen years of imprison

Knowing, Mr. Editor, that every
right-minded Southern man and wo
man deplores the frequency of lynch

of the “woman,” above mentioned,
are not endorsed by ehher the editor

Mr. Baker was a young man liked
by every one. Bright in mind and
amiable in disposition, polite and
courteous m his manners, he was a
general favorite with his companions,
and they all mourn the death of their
friend.
The funeral was he’d Sunday after
noon at-the--residence of Mr. 8. W.
Baker, and waB attended by a large
crowd. The services were conducted
by Rev. B. L. Baker, of Monticello,
and Rev, Mr. Marion, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, and were ex
ceedingly impressive. At the con
clusion of these services the remains
were conveyed to the hearse and sad
ly followed to their last resting place
in Laurel Hill cemetery by a large
number of mourning relatives and
friends. The following young men,
close friends qf the deceased, acted as
pall-bearers: Messrs. Frank Pittmar,
Charley Pittman, Will'Mash, Ardis
McDougald, Taylor Mitchell and
Jack McDonald.
The -sorrowing father, mother,
brothers, relatives and friends have
the heartfelt sympathy of all in their
affliction.
Hit exaction that modern railroad
speed makes on the physical stamina
of railroad men is demonstrated in
the fact that seven engineers are re
quired to take the Chicago flier out
and seven back, says the Boston Tran
script. The N running lime between
New York and Chicago is twenty
hours and the average speed is forty-
eight miles, an hour. Each engineer
and engine runs three hours. Ma
chine and man return with a slow
train to their starting point to relieve
the strain on both. Then the'engi
neer is given forty hours’ rest before
he goes 6n the filer again. The rest
absolute, no work of any kind being
required of the engineer. Though
the average speed of forty«igbt miles
an hour, the locomotive most at some
points be driven at sixty or more.
The physical strain on the man in
the cab at those bursts of speed is
something terrible* The engineer has
fifty think to look out for, and is
being shaken and swayed all the time.
The fireman is constantly feeding the
insatiate furnace.' On the run of the
Empire State express three tons of
coal are shoveled from the tender in
the furnace between New York and
Albany. It is not wonderful that the
engineers of this train are given alter
nate days for rest and recuperation.

A Temperance Day.
Sandersville, Ga. Nov. 9, *93.
A State Convention of the Georgia
Prohibition Association is hereby
called to meet in the city of Augusta
on Friday the 1st day of December,
1893, at 10 o’clock a. m. in the inter
est of temperance and prohibition.
While delegates are invited from all
temperance organizations in the state
as well os from counties at large, and
from churches without limit, and
wnile the public generally will be ex
pected to attend, yet each county will
be entitled to only twice the number
ot votes it has in the house of repre**
sentatlves.
Let the friends of temperance iu
the several counties in the state meet
and appoint delegates and let us have
a grand nnu?s meeting rally.
Ladies are especially invited. - In
teresting addresses may be expected
by distinguished speakers and an aN
tractive program will be arranged.

It seems that Governor Mitchell
is determined to prevent Corbett and
Mitchell from fighting in Florida. In
an interview the governor says:
“I had hoped and believed my in
structions to the sheriff of Duval
county to prevent the fight in Jack*
sonville was sufficient warning to
canse the parties promoting tbe fight
to desist, but if my information is
correct, it seems I was mistaken. It
appeara that the parties interested in
the fight are inclined to defy the
state authorities to the end that
Florida shall be disgraced by a prize
fight But this shall not be done until
every power of the state is exhausted
in efforts to prevent it, and any
officer, whose duty it is to prevent
this disgrace to our civilization and
the state, who fails to do his whole
duty in the premises, will be most
summarily dealt with. I don’t think
the fight will take placo in Florida.
I shall issue a proclamation directing
every sheriff to do his utmost to pre
vent the fight coming off in the state,
and appeal to the people in the several
counties to co operate with the sheriffs
iu saving them and their state from
such a disgrace.”

Savannah has raised her quarantine

an order yesterday lifting the quaran

from the Savannah, Florida and

was notified of this action, and gave
orders to the train dispatchers at noon
to resume their former system and
stop all trains at Jesup, as was floue
before the quarantine went into effect
Dr. Brunner's action in raising the
quarantine was based upon informa

the marine hospital service, stating
that all danger at Jesup has passed.
Dr. Carter said the fever had disap
