Mr. Thomas Watt, of Edinborgb, Scotland, arrived last night and is the guest of Mr. James Walt, his brother, lie will spend the winter here. Onr readers will be glad to leant that Mr. Watt has almost entirely recovered from an accident which happened to him tbe first part of last summer, and which was at one time ieared would result fatally. We trnat hit stay here will be both pleasant and beneficial. One branch of tbe famous Quitman Lumber Company case was settled yesterday. Judge Hopkins, who was appointed special mister in chancery by Judge Hansel), was to have heard the case yesterday moroiog, but set'lenient was reached before the 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 whole section o! the State fs interested this mill and the Boston and Al bany railroad, which, we understand, s a part of the property, and it hoped that it will soon be out of liti gation and the business resumed, Ii is not generally known, perbaps r that young Mr. Oglesby, who is held just now in a Havana prison, brother of Mrs. Joel B. Coyle of this c ty. Mr. Oglesby spent tome time here a year or so ago, and made number ol frieods in Thomasville. He is a bright young man, and his triends hope for his early release. It is charg ed that he asMol'ed two soldiers Havana. On tbe other hand, Mr, Oglesby claims that the/ assaulted and robbed blip. Secretary Gresham of the state department will investi gate the case and see that justice done the young American. The News of yesterday--has this to say about tbe case: ' Miss Julia Oglesby received a teh.> gram yesterday trom Mr. Marcel’ns Oglesby, at Lloyds, Fla., stating that the Florida authorities had received a reply from Secretary Gresham in rev gard to her brother’s release from prison in Havafia. The telegram stated that Gov. Nonhen had been appealed to in Oglesby’s be halt ai .a citizen of Georgia, Mr. Marccllus Oglesby -will be in Savannah next wecl^on his way to Washiogtofi. 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. P. A. McIntosh. In Memory Of little Johnnie Carter, infant child ot Mr. and Mrs, Frank . Carter, of Patten, Ga , was bora April 15, 1893, .ed Nov, 7, 1893, age six months and seven days. Sleep on little dar ling, rest in the arms of the blessed Savior. Thou hast left j our hearts aching and our arms empty aud when we look aroued obi how we miss thy beaming eyes and sweet smiles, but vc will try to not wish thee back from thy heavenly home, but humbly bow to the will of our divine Master and say thy will be done pot mine, hoping to meet thee in heavenly places where parting is no more.

Friend. infuriated mob, and encourage crime and wrong doing, when, per haps, the victim of their violence is not the criniiual. There is only on& punishment in the opinion of all right- minded men and women for the out* rage upon the virtue ot woman, and, that is, speedy execution, but not by “Lynch** law. Let it be a “Star Chamber” affair so as to save the feel ings of tiie helpless victim who has suffered < no ugh without adding pub licity und delay to her trials. Lot the guilty one hang as speedily pos-.ible. But when there is no proof, and only a suspicion, let the accused be protected away from the place the act was committed, and if those who thirst for revenge take the law in thtir own hands, let them be treated, as in time of war, and be looked upon as deserters.from their ranks, and, also, meet summary jus tice. Two articles side by side iu the Savannah Morning News of the 16ih have suggested tho above thoughts^ In one column a “woman” upholds Lynch Law” because the pub'icity 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 ment for a crime he never committed. Knowing, Mr. Editor, that every right-minded Southern man and wo man deplores the frequency of lynch law execution, and that the sentiments of the “woman,” above mentioned, are not endorsed by ehher the editor 01 th j Alorniog News, as he has ex u pressed himself, or by you, I take the berty to draw attention to her com* munication. Has any woman from “de’icacy” the right to let a monster go forth to destroy more innocent lives when she Knows him to be the guilty one ? No, she had better stand out iu bold relief with her cheeks covered with blushee, and be a martyr for the eake of jus tice than have the slightest tinge on her canscience of the selfLhucss, that would expose other hd|^css ones to the mercits of a monster who is not fit to live, and who through her act, is allowed togo free. Let us do away with tuch maudlin sentimentality where justice should stand out boldly Women of America are not living on the Bosphorous, nor do they need Jo blush when they bring vice before the tribunal that alone must punish crime in thi3 Christian land. Where would it end! There would be wheels within wheels that Judge Lynch would aid to push alon<£ In trigues and conspiracies'would run riot if lawless men were allowed to torture, burn and riddle with bullets when the evil spirit moved them to such high-handed acts- Tho south land would be a fit habitation for hyenas and tigers, and not’ for law- abiding citizens. We ore told to re member Lot’s wife, but we need not forget Photephar’s wife, and wo con gratulate the victim of her rage that “Judge Lynch” was not then crowned in Africa, nor will he be in America ‘if the court knows herself.” Justitia Wide Aw ake. life of usefulness. 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. Fast travel not only wears out rails aud'machines, but human creatures’ lives.—Scientific American. 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. State papers please copy.

Politicians can be divided into three classes—those who have had their grab, those who are still grabbing, and those who want to grab, says the Savannah Press. 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.” There is a paper published at Hot Springs, Ark., called “The Thomas Cat,,” Aud the Thomas Cat is a howling success. It strikes right out from the shoulder. And every lick tells. There are no misses. The following are extracts from the Cat’s prospectus, published in every issue: “Subscription rates: One dollar one year, or one hundred dollars, one hundred years, ami we pay freight ” Our Aim—Tell the truth though the heavens take a tumble. Oar Paper—Of the people, for the people, to be paid for by the people. Our Religion—Orthodox, with a firm belief in a Hell. Our Motto—Take all in sight aad rustle lor more. Our Policy—To love our friends and brimstone our enemies. What We Advocate—One country, one flag and one wile at a rime. Our Object—To live in pomp and oriental splendor. Savannah has raised her quarantine against Jesup. Dr. Brunner issued an order yesterday lifting the quaran tine, amd withdrawing the inspectors from the Savannah, Florida and Western railway. Supt Fleming 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 tion received fiom Surgeon Carter, of the marine hospital service, stating that all danger at Jesup has passed. Dr. Carter said the fever had disap peared entirely and that the work of disinfection is going forwrd rapidly. The last case of yellow ievertn Jesup was discharged about thrbe weeks ago, since which rime there have been no further cases.—News. Paragraphs of Promnsa?

The wild and woolly west appears to have gone back on the populists. Light is breaking around Bruns wick. Jack Frost aud King Ice have dispersed the clouds.

Doctor Hawthcrne opposes women ta king in church. The doctor knows tbey cannot be stopped from talking outside the church. A flairs in Hawaii are said to be in statu quo. Yes, statu quo expresses the situation. But something may '‘drop” some fine tuorniug. The famous Ryan establishment in Atlanta is in the hands of a receiver again. Steve will probably manage to keep out of j ail this time. A great ttorm has swept tho Eng lish coast during the pa-:t two days. Scores ot vessels have been wrecked and hundreds of lives lost. Surgeon Booth, of Shreveport, La., made a wonderful record at Bruns wick during the epidemic. He treat ed 200 patients and never lost a case. Now that the Marquis ot 'Queens- berry is married, it is hoped lie may apply himself to the iormu-atioti of a new set ol rules governing contests without a referee.
