A Washington dispatch says: Cap tain C. A. F. Flagler, of corps engin eers, has submitted to the war depart ment a report on several river improve ments in Georgia. The operations on Flint river daring the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1900, were confined to the portion of the river from Albany to Newton, Ga., removing isolated bowl ders, snags, etc., and deepening rock reefs to a three-foot low water depth; then a skip was made over the worst shoals and work started again just above Cheevertown. There was not money enough available to undertake to improve the 6hcals just below New ton. As to the Chattahoochee river, at the end of the fiscal year,the river from Co lnmbus to Eufaula is in very bad con dition. Numerous landslides come ia to the river during the winter rise*. The jetties along the river, the en gineer said, need separating, but no funds can be spared now from the snagging operations. During the fis cal year a survey was made of the Chattahoochee river from Franklin to West Point, the length of the river surveyed was thirty-eight miles. There is also a report on the Coosa river setting forth the work done in detail. The most important features of the reports, namely, the recommenda tions and estimates for future work, the war department will not permit to be published. The recommendations require consideration and action by the secretary of w ar and congress. • • • Alleged Wife-Slayer Jailed. A white man named Tillman Farr, of Macon, has been placed in Bibb county jail charged with the murder of his wife. The crime happened over a year ago at Farr’s home, iu East Ma con. He worked at the Bibb mill and lived in one of the mill houses. One night he gave his wife a terrible beat ing and immediately fled from the city. She lingered about three weeks and then died. Physicians say her death was caused by the beating given her by her husband. Farr was located in Houston county a day or two ago and Sheriff Westcott sent a warrant for bis arrest to Deputy Sheriff Alien, of Houston. Farr was found at work near Powersville. * * * Street Fair For Winder. The Business Men’s League of Win der has just completed arrangements with representatives of the Seaboard Air-Line railroad for holding a grand street fair and carnival August 28th, 29th and 30th. The citizens are tak ing hold of the enterprise with their usual vim, and Winder will have the liveliest three days it has ever seen at the time stated. mm* Little rhwnjje Is Probable. If the increase in tax returns of the various coauties in the state amounts to over $10,000,0J0 this year the net profit of the state out of that amount would only amount to about $37,000. The gross profit would be s.'3.ooo, but •even per cent, of that amount is used to pay the expenses of collection. Comptroller Wright states that if tbe tax rate should be lowered this year, the reduction would be very small. “The reduction w ould be very little,” said Mr. Wright, “if there is an increase in the returns of even $15,000,000. * The increase gives but little more money into the state treas ury, as seveu per cent, of what we get in has to go for the expense of collect ing the taxes. It is true that the ap propriations this year are not as large as they were last, and we will be en abled to lower the rate somewhat on that account* * * • Eitomlinc Wnycroßß Air-Line, A great deal of new rail is being shipped out over the Wavcross Air- Line for the extension of that line to Fitzgerald. A considerable force is at work laying track between Lake and Vickers, and the line is beiug graded between Vickers and Fitzgerald. Trains will not be run into tbe Col ony City by October 1. as has beeu claimed, bnt it is quite likely that Christmas day will see this city and Fitzgerald connected directly by bands of steel. Failure to secure bauds will delay the work to some ex tent. • • • OoTfrnor D-nle lt*qnlitlon. Governor Candler decided the re quisition case of Samuel Garner, a commission man of Atlanta, who is wanted by the Tennessee authorities, refusing in his decision to honor the requisition. Garner recently has been acting as agent for a firm in Sbelbyville, Tenn. He is charged by tbe Sbelbyville firm with cheating and swindling, and through Governor Mc-Millan extradi tion papers were taken out for Gar ner’s arrest and removal to Tennessee for trial. Governor Candler refnsed the requi sition on the ground that Garner had not been in Tennessee, and therefore had committed no crime a.u'.ut the laws of that state It was held that if , any crime was committed, it was in Georgia and not Tennessee. • • Prisoner* Talk Freely. Many visitors go daily to the jail in Macon to see Mrs. Dixon and Walden, who are charged with the murder of G. W. Dixon. They are not at all abashed by compauy. Mrs. Dixon de nies that she had anything to do with the killing of her husband. She says that she has never confessed to any one that she helped to murder her hus band. Mrs. Dixod does does not seem to mind her incarceration in jail, and talks to all who care to talk with her. Walden appears indifferent to his sur roundings. t Colored Company Turned Down. The McKiuley rifles, a negro milita ry organization of Macon, has been refused admittance into the state mili tia. The application for admission was made several days ago, hut, as has al- I ready been stated, there is no more : .room for troops of any kind. The five regiments have their full quota of men, as have the colored battalions. The compauy only had twelve mem beis, but the captain wrote the in spector general that he had a band he wanted to enlist with the company. The state had no equipment to fur nish, and the colored battalions were filled np, so the application had to he turned down. • • • Farmer* of Sumter Organize. Hon. Pope Brown and President Harvey Jordan, of the Georgia Grow ers’ Protective Association, addressed a large assemblage of farmers of Sumter and adjoining counties at Ameriocs the past week upon the subject of or ganization for the purpose of securing more advantageous prices for the cot ton crop. The arguments were upon the same line advanced heretofore, the speakers advocating an agreement between the farmers and bankers whereby the lat ter will advance money for holding cotton and thus prevent the glutting of tho market to the advantage of the spiuners. The local organization was effected with a large membership and considerable enthusiasm was mani fested. Bankers and merchants as well as farmers joined in the organi zation. m * * Rody Thrown From Train. Will Alexander, a negro from Car tersville, shot and killed Joe Cooper, a negro from StiJesborc, on an excursion train between Ce.iartown and Pied mont Saturday morning. Cooper’s body was thrown from the train. The engineer saw the dead body of the negro hurled from the car and stopped the train. The body was put ou the train asain by the train crew aud carried to Piedmont. * * * Howard Offered For Murderer. A reward has been issued by Gover nor Candler for the arrest of Albert Nelms, of Brooks county, who is charg ed with cutting his wife’s throat from ear to ear. The reward was fixed at $l5O. * * • Marlon Anxious For Dispensary. Marion county will make another effort at the coming session of the gen eral assembly to secure a dispensary. The bill for that purpose introduced at the last meeting of the general as sembly was killed in the committee room. ... Built With Home Capital. The John E. Smith Company of Thomson has just completed a mill in which home capital did not wait to be helped out. Home people went to work, raised the capital stock and built the enterprise unaided. The mill makes yarns aud is just now starting up. It is as good a mill as there is in the south and puts Thom son forward into the front ranks of manufacturing towns in Georgia. m * * To Rrenk Up i’nrtnerf*hlp. At a meeting of the special depot commission of the state to be held at the capitol one of the most important steps looking to the ultimate erection of anew union station on the terminal property in Atlanta will be taken. Plans will be considered to put an end to the partnership which three roads enteriug the city have enjoyed in the depot building. This will give the state a position where the legisla ture can, if it sees fit at the coming session, consider measures looking to the improvement of the terminal prop erty. • Eleven Cent. For First Bale. Georgia's first bale of cotton of the 1900 crop was marketed in Albany on Friday, July 27. The cotton was grown by Deal Jackson, a prosperous negro farmer of the western part of Dougherty county. The bale weighed 397 pounds, was classed as fully mid dling, and sold at 11 cents to the Georgia Cotton company. Albany re ceived the first bale of cotton in Geor gia last year, the hale having been marketed on the same date in 1899. ... Who Wants To Be Librarian? A lively contest for the position of state librarian will be made next year. Already there are a number of appli cants for the place, and many of them are warm personal friends of Governor Candler.
