Thomas J. Havemeyer, brother of Henry 0. Havemeyer ami himself one of the sugar trust millionaires, died five weeks ago It was understood that he was a bachelor. It now ap pears that he was a married man ; that he bad been married for fifteen years, having married Miss Anna Wright, who had been a boyhood sweetheart, in 1884. The marriage was never made public because Mr. Havemeyer’s family wished him either to marry a rich woman or remain a bachelor. It seems that while Mr. Havemeyer pro vided liberally for bis wife during his lifetime, he made no provision for her after his death. She is now suing for her dower rights in bis great estate. To Real Estate Owners. The city assessors having turned over their books to this office, all parties interested are hereby request ed to examine the same and make appeal to council for a reduction by the 23rd inst. Thos. Nall, Clerk and Treasurer. Colored Enumerator* Some time ago we expressed the opinion that the President would make & mistake if he appointed colored men as census supervisors in the South. There are of course colored men who are qualified to do this work, but it is certain they will appoint colored enu merators, whose duty it will be to call at the homes of the people and get the information required for the census. In a majority of instances this infor mation will have to be furnished by the women of the household, because the men will be away al their places of buiness when the enumerators call. It will not be pleasant for women, in many cases, in all probability, to answer questions which enumerators will be authorized to ask. Owing to recent troubles in some parts of the South white women in some instances may refuse to see the enumerators. Il would not be surprising if that should be lhe case in out-j’-ivay places in the rural districts. We do not predict trouble from these appointments, but if there should be, the President would be, in some measure, to blame for it. He knows the conditions which exist in the South. In the trial of the Lake City, S. C., case recently Judge Brawley said that lhe administration was large ly responsible for lhe crime of which lhe accused were charged, because it had appointed a strange negro post master at Lake City against the pro test of lhe people. If the President desires to appoint some of the colored men of the South supervisors and enumerators of the census why doesn't be appoint them to districts in the East and West?' From the same districts of the West and East white men could be appoint ed lor districts in the South. In that way lhe President could favor colored Republicans in the South without inking the risk of causing unpleas ! antm-ss between the races We do I n< ’ make ibis suggestion with any other purpose than to prevent an op j portiinity Im ii.uil. e between the I races. There is not likely to be any trouble in the towns and cities, but it cannot be said thnt negro enumerators will find their work p i-asant in all parts of the country districts lhe entire situation bus been placed before the President, however, and also the chief of the census bureau If they persist in sending colored enumerators into the homes of white , people the) mu-t. b ar ibeir part of , the respons’Lility if the enumerator* , should not be entirely eucci's-fii 1 in their ivuik —Savannah News For Bladder Troubles use Stuart’s Bin mid Bn eliu.

I ’ The Greatest Ever Known. J f THE : 1 i MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CO. , OF NEW YORK. Breaks The Dividend Record. It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the corapa s ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Connecticut, the particulars of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this in stance eclipsed all previous dividend results: Mr. Banks was insured for.|s.o(M) 00 . The dividends amounted to.. 12,028.00 Paid to the estate .... $17,028.00 How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums in cash, and ’ he did this for fifty-lour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these for his benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,233. Issued March 5, 1845. Amount $5,000. Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Pl in. Original insurance in Dividend additions paid in 151ff112,028.00 Amount of death claimsl7,o2B,oo ■ 54 Premiums paid by insured 8,640.00 Realized to estate over premiums paid $8.388 00 ’ Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2J) per cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from $5,060 at age 40, to $17,028 at age 04. The dividend additions paid to the estate were 13!) per cent, of all the premiums paid for the insurance. Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety-four. He appreciated the power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of his method of investment—a result that has never been equalled by a policy holder in any other company in the world.

Editor : Some years ago I took an idea that land was the safest investment that a man could make in Georgia, and as a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say,in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There are a number of tenant houses on the place, ami a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre-saying altogether, about $lO per acre, without improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, according to his ability to p«y for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hat or box, aud drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their m nicy, or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost The land is 12 miles fr- in Macon, a city of some 50,000 or 60,001> people, and is adapted to market gardening, and for northern people who know how to w'ork, it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best of pastures, water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine, and some cedar ; in fact, it is the best place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what 1 say. I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with, the advan tages, and communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what I say. I have also a farm of 50 acres near Barnesville for sale,on good terms. In addition to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms of pay ment in four annual payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low. The titles to the land have been in the posses sion of one or two parties for years, and have never, been questioned and are as good as gold. S. B.
