GRIFFIN GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 7 1888 I BUSINESS SUSPENDED! TO 1»A\ TRIBUTE TO A IMSTI5- GUINIIED DECEASED CITIZEN. The Remains of Col. S. W. .Maugham Laid to Rest With Most Elo¬ quent Tributes. It is easy for a minister or a news paper water to pay ttibule to a de serving citizen after bis death. It seems to be their peculiar function, and often it is left with them alone to bestow the respect that is due. But when a!! the business houses of the city in which he lived close up for three or four Lours in (lie busi ness part of the day, while his ro mains are beiug laid to rest, it means that what the minister and the paper say is felt by the whole community, and is a tribute which is seldom bo stowed. Sach is the tribute, unknown td most in the history of the city, which was p-iid yesterday to the late S. W. Maugham, and it was the most noteworthy feature in cotincc tion with his honored funeral. The Odd Fellows, the Masons, the survivors of the old Gtifiin Light Guards and the smart new Greys, with their brilliant uniforms, to all of which organizations he belonged, turned out in the procession. He also belonged to the Knight of Honor, the Legion of Honor and the Methodist Cuurctpand the latter numerous organization, as well as the citizens in general, filled the church to overflowing. There were people from different parts ot the county also, and it would bo wrong to specify any body as paying res pcct to the distinguished citizen now no more, any more than the rest of the community. The funeral services were conduct, ed by R6V. T. R Kendall, Colonel Manghatn’s former pastor, assisted by Revs. Bradley, Daniel and McKay as well as the Masons and Odd Fel lows, and although three o’clock was the hour named it was dark before they were concluded at the grave The church was .beautifully decorat ed with Jilics and different designs emblematic of the positions the de C8nsed bad held, with a design of the “gates ajar.” The old Light Guards have pre pared resolutions and the Odd Fel lows appointed a committee for that purpose, which will be printed in a subsequent issue.

The Liquor License Ought to Be Raised Instead of Lowered. The beauty of this is two-fold. First, it is the latest, and second, it sounds so eminently truthful. “Why don’t you write something about the big snake that was seen up in tha air?” was the remark of a Griffin cotton mill man to a News re porter yesterday. ‘:What do you mean?” “Oh, I know it sounds queer, but it is a fact. The th'ng whatever it was, was seen by a number of men at work at the cotton factory two or three nights ago - ” This is the story: While a number of men were standing outside of the factory, having just quit work, one of them looked up and saw what heat first thought to be a snake about five feet long, evidently more than 2,000 feet away, in the air. He did not say anything to his fellow workmen until he saw the object coming closer, and it was then that he called the atten¬ tion of the others to it. -The men watched it, and it was not long until' it was over them, looking to be about 500 feet high. The object was more than five times the length it seemed to be when Gist noticed. As it came nearer it looked to be a monster snake. It was jet black, and in thickness looked like an ordinary keg. The ponderous jaws of the rep tile were frequently seen to open, from which emerged a large tongue. It sailed in a regular course, but when the jaws opened it then took a downward course and seemed as though it would fall to the ground below. On the descent the mouth remained open, and after a fall of about 100 feet the jaws would close and the snake would raise its head and slowly wen 1 its way up to its former height. The course of this monster air snake was in a northward ly direction. From the mill it moved like a snake on land about a mile to a point near Milledge Bates’ house, then took a backward course to where it was first seen by the naked eye. From there it took an upward direction, and it was watched until it disappeared Stone behind the mill, sailing toward Mountain. The night watchman at the facto ry, who was just going on duty, was the first to see the snake. * * * * Organic weakness or loss of power iu either sex, however ipduced, speedily and permanently cured.
