REPORTS EXAGGERATED
Not Much Trouble Between Racee
at Pavo.
Friday’* (••institution and Savan

over a story of a race war i\* Pavo,
ting that n clash between the blacks and
whites was imminent and the Monltrio
militia had Iteon sent for. The report

NEW TRIAL DENIED.
But Ooolltfo* Lend Gaea will 90 to
Supreme Court o
In Superior court Friday morning
the motion for a new trial in the case of
Nelson vs. Miller was overruled. This
cam is of considerable public interest in
atmnoh as it involves the ownership of
several hundred acres of land, upon part
which the town of Coolidgc is
situated.
Mrs. Nelson tlte plaintiff alleges that
she was defrauded of this land by Mr.
Wm. Miller. She obtained a verdict in
Superior coart and it waa on this that
the motion for a new trial was made and
denied.
The ease will now be carried to the
Supreme ooart. The plaintiff is repre
sented by Theo Titos and W. M. Ham
mond and the defendant by J. H. Mer
rill. J. F. Mitchell and C. P. Hansell.'
The interior of Thomas* drag store is
hrightaned np by a coat uf white paint.
Several davs ago tho Tinies-Enter
priso chronicled the homing of a negro
lodge ludl at that towu on Monday
night. The negroes probably thought
this was done by whites, and in the
present inflamed state of pnblic opinion
various rumors ami mnch wild talk was
doubtless indulged in.
For instance a visitor from Boston
Friday related that many people
from the northeastern part of the coun
ty had been to that town to pnrcha>e
Are arms and cartridges. He farther
statod tliat the midnight k!<j was lit by
flames, doubtless, those of other lod^e
halls, on Thursday night.
The Times-Enterprise communicate d
with Dr. J.Frank Harris and other re
putable citizens of Pavo, at a late hot r
Friday night. These unite in saying that
the rumors of tronble are without foun
dation, tliat no clash had occured to
that time and that none was expected.
Mr. O. C. Batey is spending a few
days with Mr. Stafford, of Baraesville.
