THIS AND THAT.
BY C. O. M-
BEEN THERE BEFORE.
The "Fort Gaines Chronicle Editor who
has been in the paper business hut two
weeks exhibits good evidence of a fair con
ception of the business already and is' led
from' the foreknowledge he has of it to re
mark: e would like to know from what
j source our spring suits are coming.”—Do
i than Siftings.
Brother, did not know when we re
j marked that the prospects for our spring
I suits were slim indeed, that it would strike
. you in a tender spot and bring back unpleas
lant recollections of the past which are no
■ doubt indellibly stamped in your memory.
; No, we are no “fresh catch,” and therefore
fully understand the ups and downs of a
country editor, and having an experience of
several year- know whereof we speak.
Our brother compliments us highly in
deed, when he says that we have caught on
to the racket in two weeks. Brother, we are ’
in a country where money is as scarce as
news in your section—therefore the wail
which you caught on the fly, was sent up
TAKE WARNING.
Fort Gaines needs a night watchman and
should not go another week without one.
A few nights ago some vile miscreant
tuyned the water off at one of the hydrants
and had it not been for a gentleman passing
by who cut the water oft’, the tank would
have been emptied before morning. That
is not the first instance of this kind, and ii*
should be stopped.
If the council will not hire a man to look
after the welfare of the city, no doubt the
citizens will subscribe a sufficient amount to
secure the services of a watchman and put
him on duty It is imposei ble for one man
to look after the safety of the town, and it is
lute at night after the marshal has retired,
that all of the mischief is done. Give the
matter your careful attention.
IT WAS LIVELY.
Quite an amusing scene was witnessed in
the Parlor Barbershop last Monday irght
when the cashier and bootblack could not
agree and locked horns in regular Trojan
style. Both being kids no special harm was
■ done, only they slobbered over each other
considerably, and cut a few scallops of a
rare pattern. The cashier placed a fair sam
j pie of crazy patch-work on the ear of the
I bootblack bv drawing it through his light
ning hash-trap a couple of rounds.
TRY IT YOURSELF.
There is always some one in a community
to kick at everything, who wouldn’t be sat
isfied if they had the earth in their possession
and a waive note on the moon.
They will grumble about the paper not
having much news in it, and say the price i 0
too high, when its only $1 a year. We just
extend a cordial invitation to those old,
chronic grumblers to come up and take
charge of the paper for only one week, hus
tle around and get up news where it is ns
plentiful as hare’s tale, and nt up night af
ter night trying to manufacture news to fill
a paper, they will understand the trials and
tribulations of a country editor.
Then something else will be impressed on
your mind, and that is that you are not
quite as brilliant as you imagined.
OH, NAUGHTY BUSTLE.
She was plump, she was juicy,
They called her charming Lucy,
And admirers flocked around her by the
score;
But in a waltzing tussle,
Her naughty paper bustle
Fell, and spread the current news upon
the ballroom floor.
PISTOLS VS. KIDS’.
By some means a certain kid in the city
became the proud possessor of a pistol, and
in thesame mysterious manner he secured a
box of cartridges, and invited a friend of his
about the same age to go out into a swamp
with him to try the accuracy of the weapon,
by girdling trees. Armed with die danger
ous little trick, they proceeded to the woods
with the arrogance of Goliath when he went
■out to meet David. They were going to
make a record with the pistol unexcelled by
Burrows or the J^mes brothers. They feared
neither man nor Veasts —and soon arrived in
a secluded spot, called a halt and proceed to
load the ugly little pop with bullets.
Several rounds were shot when one of the
boys, said that he was going to play W il
liam Tell by cutting a pine burr off of a
limb at which he pointed. He took the pistol
to examine it and see if it was all o. k., when
it Was accidentally discharged, the ball
passing through his hand. That part of the
performance was not on the programme and
brought the shooting tournament to an un- j
expected elose.
He told Ids parents that ho had cut his ’
hand with a pocket knife. Thinking the kid
iMM m w Willa Bl
wourrd. But « tew days later the boy’s hand j
began to pain him, and an investigation :
showed that the wound was not made by a '
pocket knife; and he was questioned so ’
closely about the matter that he finally
owned it was a pistol wound.
Carrying pistols has become an every day
business with quite a number of the small
boys to an alarming extent. How they man
age ta get tile pistols is a mystery, and an in
i vestigation should be made. M e know the
boys don’t purchase the pistols themselves,
and surely anyone who would iurnish a kid
with a pistol and cartridges is bordering
on iasanity, or a miscreant, and if they are
ever caught up with, an example will be i
made of them. The boys should be forced
to tell where they get the putols.

SEVERAL- MIRACULOUS ESCAPES]
—
iOf the Pa^s^urers—Five Heavily:
Laden Freight Cars Wrecked— (
Canse of the Accident.
The citv was startled from center to cir
cumference last Saturday evening when a
courier camo in post haste announcing aj
horrible wreck wlrch had occurred at the ■
! trestle between Brown’s crossing and the I
i railroad bridge.
The excitement caused by the accident on I
©
*he Wreckas Viewed by a Chronicle Reporter—Sam Henderson. Brakeman, Falling from Top of Freight Car—Asa Clarke,
Engineer, Making a Leap from Ills Engine.
Thursday before, had scarcely subsided.and
that in connection with the startling news
which had just been received was appalling
indeed. A great many of the citizens who
had relatives and friends on board the ill
fated train, and not being able to ascertain
the loss of life, were frantic with fear and
apprehension, and rushed to the scene of
the terrible wreck, expecting to find the
/rushed and mangled remains of their loved
ones buried beneath the debris of the demol
ished cars Intense excitement prevailed
throughout the city, and on every hand
large numbers of poeple could be seen on
horse-back and a-foot hurrying to the scene
of the accident.
The news spread wide and fast, and soon a
vast throng had gathered, looking with bated
breath and blanched faces upon one of the
most disastrous wrecks that had ever occur
red on the Central railroad.
A Chronicle reporter was among the
first to arrive on the scene. And it was one
°f the most complete wrecks that he had
ever beheld.
In the gulch over which the trestle
spanned, were the demolished remains of
three heavily laden freight cars, with their
contents strewn for many yards around. On
top of the crushed freight cars were two flat
cars and the baggage coach, which were
wrecked almost beyond recognition.
On either side of the gulch lay the scattered
remains of wrecked freight cars, some of
wich were crushed into atoms —others
turned bottom upwards with every truck
torn asunder,
On the opositoside of the yawning chasm
tilted at an angle of forty-five degrees, hung
the passenger coach, which had luckily
caught, supported by some of the heavy
timbers of the trestle that had fallen in such
a maimer as to impede its downward course.
The foremost trucks of the coach were torn
otT and one end shattered in by the terrific
I fore with which it struck the huge mass «f
! debris that had already filled the chasm be
neath thereby saving the lives of those with
in from a horrible and instant death.
The scene was one that beggars descrip
tion —impossible to picture in the imagina
tion of those who did not behold it, andthey
can form no conception whatever, of a rail
road disaster unless they visited the scene
of this terrible wreck.
One of the most miraculous escapes on
record was that of conductor Graham, who
was in the baggage car at the time of the
catastrophe. The coach was hurled into the
chasm and completely demolished, but save
ft few slight bruises, Mr. Graham escaped
unbamied.
iSurelv the presence of the-Supreme Being
in whose hands our Hires rest, was in the
: midst of these on that ill-fated train.
i It is wonderful indeed, that the engine
: passed over the trestle without the slightest
: warning of the accident which was so soon
ito follow, and had not the engineer, at the
first not of warning, thrown open the throt
tle to its utmost capacity, not a single
freight car wouM have escaped. The force
with which the engine was jerked by the
falling cars came near throwing it from the
track.
Sam Henderson, the brakeman of whom
we made mention as being slightly hurt in the
accident of Thursday before, was sitting on
■ the brake of one of the freight cars when it
I rushed into the chasm below, and he was
thrown a distance of 50 feet, failing upon
the bard ground. He was picked up in an
unconscious state, and a physician was sum
moned, who pronounced his injuries to be
internal, but hopes are entertained for his
recovery. _
CAUSE OF THE ACCfDEXT. *
The cause of the accident was attribu
ted to the decayed condition of the tim
ber which formed the trestle.
An examination showed that the foun
dation on which the studding rested wm
rotten even with the surface of the ground
I - j
■in which it was buried. Had a thorough ‘
; investigation of the trestle been made
previous to the accident, which should be
: done at least once a mouth, the terrible
calamity’ might have been avoided.
It behooves the managers of the Cen- •
Ural railroad to look after this branch
more closely in the future than they have
in the past, and have it put in a more ;
substantial condition than it is at present.
j Audit thep neglect their duty the respon
sibility of great loss of life may- fall upon
i their shoulders, and be the means of
bringing heavy suit for damages against
: them.
Three accidents within a week’s time is
‘ sufficient to create alarm among those
: who travel over that deadfall.
r CLEAR’&G AWAY THE WRECK.
Sunday morning about three o’clock
I the construction train arrived at the
‘ scene of disater, preparatory of clearing
i away the debris and replace the trestle.
As soon as dawn came the work begun,
I and continued throughout the day. The
train and section hands on this branch
joined forces with Ihat of the construction
train, and assisted in removing the huge
mass of smashed freight cars and their
contents.
The work was- heavy and diffiienlt to
get at on account of the cars being firmly
wedged in the gulch. Wire cables were
used in the work of removing the debris,
which were attached to the wrecked cars,
then connected to the engine on the track
above, and at a given signal the'engineer
would open the th rot tie. and the wrecks
cars were torn one by one from the chasm
with a deafening roar, Slowly but surely
the work progressed, and after two days
of steady toiling the wreck was cleared
away.
Monday evening work on replacing the
the trestle begun and was completed in
time for the train to pass over it on Tues
day- evening.
The passengers and mail were transfer
red to a special train Monday and Tues
day.. Ou Weddesday morning the reg
ular train left on schedule time.
A LARGE CROWD OF SPECTATORS.
On Sunday morning an immense crowd
of sight-seers both from the city and
country congregated about the wreck,
most of whom had never seen anything
of the kind before, and it w-as interesting
to them to watch the wreckers clear away
the debris.
In the afternoon the crowd was still
larger, and could be seen coming in
numbers from every direction. By three
o’clock standing room could scarcely be
found. In every available spot on the old
field near the scene were vehicles of every
description, from a phaeton down to an
ox cart.
The crowd remained until late in the
■ afternoon when the people began to dis
perse with the scene which they had vis
ited indellibly stamped in their memory.
NOTES.
Over 800 people visited the scene of the
wreck Sunday.
Ed Harden was on hand from 6 o’clock
Sunday morning until 7 o’clock that
evening.
The Sunday schools were completely
demoralized last Sunday. All the people
were at the wreck.
About one hunderd bushek of oats scat
tered from a wrecked car, were purchased
by Mr. R. M. Brown at 25c. per bushel.
A. portion of tl>e “congTog’iition” I>e
come so deeply interested in the action of
the wrekers that they missed their dinner.
. The old passenger coach that has been
running- on the Fort Gaines branch for
fifteen years was a total wreck. Thanks
for that much.'
Mr. J. W. Suilive happened to a slight
accident while leading his horse prepar
atory to hitching him to his buggy. He
stumbled and fell, the horse stepping on
one of his feet. The ground being soft
caused tire weight of the horse to be con
siderably lightened and he soon regained
his position more scared than hurt.
A hungry looking dog in quest of some
thing to eat, strolled a lit lie to near a
rope that was pulled tight by an engine,
and, without warning the rope broke and
consequently he gave a “flying Lulu” per
formance to the amusement of the crowd.
The dog “Ht” on his head, gave a loud
’ yell and departed in haste.
Greased lightning is no comparison to
the rapidity with which the writer accom
panied by several others, descended the
sides of an overturned freight ear. As
usual we got Ine worst of it. A section
boss planted a number nine brogan on
' our left hand when he made Lis descent,
j besides disfiguring our physical anatamy
I thoerwise.
Wo Are Awake.
Almost- a p'rpoct illustration.
The only error and that is this:
The passenger coach should be on the
opposite side of the trestle.
However, we arc satisfied with our art
ist's pencil drawing, and if we had had
! tho benefit of a photographer we would
have given you an exact picture.

Better carry her back with you Jeff, when
you come again and then you will not have

Sunday last was a splendid opportunity
for the young folk. “Going to see the

time they must have had for courting, as
the walk was a long one and well suited
to the occasion.

Ten dollars is what the old negro mar;
,who was so badly hurt in the wieck at
■ Weaver’s crossing on Feb. 26 got for his
injuries. He signed the papers relative to

( less than one hour he was loaded down
- with bundles of dry goods, provisions, etc.
Be no doubt regarded this accident as a
• blessing from above, and where “ignor
ance is bliss ibds folly to be wise” The
’ company ought to “chuckle” also, for if
he hud demanded his legal rights nothing
short of $2,000 would have settled the

Shot Through the Heart.
Information reached the city Monday of
the killing of Mr. John Catellow by .Mr.
M ill Anderson, at Blakely last Saturdav
evening.
It seem that the parties had a difficulty .m
thestreets when friend* interfered and re
stored peace between them. They agreed
to drop the matter, shook hand and entered
u bar to take a friendly drink together. A*
they approached the counter Mr. Castdlow
ordered the drinks, and while the bar-keeper
was preparing them. Castellow drew a Smith
& Wesson pistol and Nourishing it about told
Anderson that he had the advantage of him
while on the streets, and 'cursed him,saving
1 that he would have Hlle J him full of bullet*
| had not friends interfered.
Immediately Anderson drew his p : «U>|
and said: “You had better do it now," and
fired to shots in rapid succession, one of
which struck Castcllow’s heart passing en
tirely through his body, and he fell backward
And expired without speaking a word.
The general supposition is that Caste I low
invited Anderson in the bar for the soln pur
pose of intimidating him and ’■enow tho row,
Castellow hud his pistol in his hand when he
died. Anderson was jailed.
Both parties are well-known and respected
citizens and the affair is deeply regretted.
Public sentiment is in favor of Ander-on.
