JUMPED INTO A WElL
To Save the Life of His Child Across
the Street.
J. II. Lee, of Concord, had a jump
of forty feet into eight feet of water
on Tuesday, and under a misappre
hension, and escaped unscathed ex
copt petting his feet wet.
His little child had been playing at
the well on the back porch, contrary
to its mothers instructions, when a
loud plunge was heard and the child,
like the one that stood on the burn
ing deck, oh, where was it? The
fact is that it was across the street at
a neighbors, having first set the
bucket going down into the well.
The mother screamed as the noise
was heard, and told the father that
the child had fallen into the well.
Without an instant’s hesitation lie
jumped in. lie dived several! times
to the bottom and searched around,
but could find no child, and finnally
concluding that it was a false alarm
was dragged up. I pon being asked
if be didn’t think he might have
killed the child by jumping upon it.
Mr. Lee replied that there was no
chance of it living if it remained in
there a minuet, and he was willing
to take the other chances. That

A FLORIDA NEWSPAPER FIGHT.
Which the Dapper Little Fellow
Comes Out on Top.
Editor John. T. Graves, of ti»e
Tribune, recently a prominent
journalists, writes as follows
the recent newspaper con¬
in Florida:
The consolidation of the two morn
uig dailies of Jacksonville closes one
the longest aniFfiercest newspaper
fights on record, and transfers from
Florida to a larger sphere of action
one of the brainiest a»d most remark
able journalists in the country.
Nearly seven years ago a dapper
little fellow, with a pale scholarly
face, resolute ioutb, quick, energet
ic move.cent . and plenty of confi¬
dence ii. .;im eif, landed in Jackson
rille with the announced intention of
establishing a daily newspaper. This
was Cbas. H. Jones, and he had just
emerged from a career of literary
work with the Appleton’s, in New
York—a regular “literary fellow,’’
who had not even cut his eye teeth
in journalism.
But he wet ’ rk with a will,
culture and an individuality
that told from the very start. With

him. Nothing but the trained in
and the indomitable intellelecu
courage cf tbe man saved him and
paper from annihilation. He
ever at his best in a fighl, and
seemed to have the faintest
of being whipped:
at times it .seemed that every
force in the state was ar¬
m active persona! opposition to
him, be fought on as dauntlessly,
saucily, and doggedly, as if he had
the commonwealth behind him. No
man anywhere was ever opposed
bitterly and persistently, and
more justly, than Mr. Jones
by the ruling element of the state iu
which he lived. By sheer fqrce of
mind and courage he held is own,
gathered strength from every
defeat. Lacking in physical courage
he was simply unconquerable in
spirit and inexhaustible in resource,
and although paper after paper was
started to down him, and combina¬
tion after combination formed to
crush him, he managed somehow to
come out of every encounter smiling,
confident, and stronger than ever.
He was not always in the right, but
he was always a pjwer in a fight,
couldn’t be kept down.
The News*Herald was tho strong
and most elaborate effort ever
to crush him. Both papers
backed by abundant capital,
tbe fight between them, often
bitter, angry, and fiercely per

Barucsville Youth and au Atlanta
Maiden Elope.
When the two Central passenger
trains met here at four o’clock yes
terday afternooD, they brought to
gether two loving hearts that beat
as one and were soon made one in
law if not in fact.
Miss Alvine Valentine Wisebery,
a handsome young Jewish maiden of
Atlanta, got off the down train under
the protecting wing of W. E. H-
Searcy, and Bon 13. Lyon, tbe nine
teen year old sbn of T. B. Lyon, of
Barucsville, helped himself off the
up train and met the young lady in
the waiting room. Together they
soon found their way to the resi
dence of Rev. S. C, McDaniel, while
Arch Nall, who had enabled the
young lady to dodge her parents by
driving her in a carriage out to East
Point, proceeded to tbe Ordinary’s
office to get a license, after which
the eloping couple was soon married.
The groom is a musician of consid
erable talent, who compensates for
the monotony of working for Mad
dox, Rucker & Co , in Atlanta daring
the winter, by playing at summer
resorts during the summer. His
youug wife is also possessed of con
siderable musical ability and it was
this congenial tasto that threw them
together and finally resulted in their
union yesterday. It is a genuine
love match, and the News hopes it
may be a happy one.
It was their intention last night
to go for a few days to Mr. Lyon’s
grandfather’s place, John Wesley
Reid, in Pike County.
Its superior excellence proven in millions
of homes for more than a quarter of a cen
tury. It isused by the United States Gov¬
