Awl Says Ha Will Not Pwt l> KleHrir M«Ma at the Prtee Agreed I'poa. On the 26th of June. W. A. Wright, as Superintendent ofthe8outh At¬ lantic Coast Department of the Brush Electric Light Company, of Cleve¬ land. Ohio, signed a contract with the dty of Griffln to put np and run 30 arc lights for |2,000 a year, all work to be completed within sixty days from toattinie. This contract, being duly signed by both parties, was published in the News and 8tm, and everybody was jubilant at what was considered a certainty of wdl lighted streets for Griffln. But as time passed on and no pro¬ gress wan made upon the work, toe council began to get anxious and in¬ structed Mayor Stewart to communi¬ cate with the Brush Company at Cleveland and ascertain whether Wright was authorized to make the contract and whether the company proponed to falflH it. To several let¬ ters and telegrams the Brush Compa¬ ny only replied that they had refer¬ red the whole business to Wright, thereby establishing the fact that he was and is their responsible agent. Yeeterday Mayor Stewart received two letters from Mr. Wright, in which he denies having made any contract, states that thecity had no authority under its charter to enter into a con¬ tract and that he does not propose to put up toe lights at the price agreed upon, because he thinks the city can and will pay more. More¬ over, he says that he never expected to put in a plant unless he could first ■ell out to a stock company, and in this he was unsuccessful. The Mayor and Aldermen, as well as those citizens who are informed upon the subject, are considerably stirred up on the subject, and it is probable that some lively remarks will be made at the regnlar meeting of the council on next Tuesday even¬ ing. It is hardly likely that that body will wait any longer upon Mr. Wright or raise the price as be sb very coolly asks. In the meantime, we are likely to remain in the dark for some time longer.

Northen met General Manager Belknap in Augusta Mon¬ day, and these two men arranged a very important scheme. About the first of September the Central railroad will carry a delega¬ tion of twenty Georgia farmers to the great West. A special car will be ar¬ ranged, and the farmers’ convention and alliance meeting is each to select one man from every district in Geor¬ gia to make this trip. These men are to be practical and prominent farmers and will take in the fall fairs and stock shows in the West. It is arranged that they shall visit the great grain and stock farms of In¬ diana, Illinois and Ohio and get new ideas about farming methods. The reports aud experience of such dele¬ gations when brought home to the people will be of great value to the state. The idea arose with Mr. Northen, and the enterprise of Man¬ ager Belknap will carry it into suc¬ cessful execution. Last year the Central railroad sent a cabinet car with Georgia products up into the West, This year there will be a sleeper of Georgia folks. ,— — Merit Wins.

E. B. Anthony At Columbus Saturday, in the case of the failure of the Beehive store after the bearing of argument, dur¬ ing which L. F. Garrard announced that all the mortgages had been forecloeed, and that the total amount of the claims to between $48,000 and $50,000, Judge Smith declined to appoint a receiver. He modified the restraining order and told the sheriff to go ahead and sell the stock. The good* are valued at over $100,000, and the sale will commence this morning at 10 o’clock. The goods are arranged in twelve lota, and the sale will continue until the property is all disposed of.

The Consumers’ Gas Company bad returned their fran¬ chise and plant at the neat sum of $25,000, but the assessors made the property returnable at $52,000. That will he the first surprise. Then the gas and and water company had re¬ turned the entire property at $150,- 000. The assessors fixed the total value at $321,000, more than double thq amount returned. Mormon elders have been preach¬ ing and scattering tracts in Bcriven county, and men and women were in¬ vited to go to Utah, all expenses be* ing paid and $3 a day offered unti 1 the convert finds something to do This leads the Sylvanie Telephone to declare that such “emigrant agents are subject to a tax of $500 under the state laws, bnt as these wretched elders have nothing to levy on, the Telephone suggests a pine log and trace chain in vindication of the decency of the community. At Powder Springs John Holcomb, colored, had not been seen since Thursday last, but not much alarm was manifested about his safety until it was learned that he had not left on the local nor gravel train on which trains he was often seen. When it was learned that he had not left town on either train his family be- i came alarmed and instituted a search [ for him. and Saturday his body was found near the bridge in ths lower part of town. He was a very stout boy nearly grown, and subject to epilepsy and it is supposed that he had a fit and fell off the bridge and drowned. The mail rider, who rides the mail between Cave Springs and Cedar Bluff, is missing. Saturday he left Cave Springs for the other end of his route, and about 11:30 o’clock his horse was found, but the rider and the pouch were nowhere to be found. The woods were scoured in search of him, but not a trace of him could be discovered. A good many are in¬ clined to believe that there has been foul play and his dead body has been hid away in the woods. The excite. ment is great, and every nook corner will be searched for evidence that will throw light on the mystery. An amusing marriage took place near Elberton the other day. A cou¬ ple came into the court house to be married. A new justice was called in. He had no form, and improvis¬ ed a ceremony. He first ordered the couple to join hands, and then after hesitating a while he asked the groom these questions: “Will you stick to this woman through thick and thin, up and down, right and left, hot or cold, wet or dry, and hare no other wife but her? If you will you can have her for a wife.’’ Similar questions having been pro¬ pounded to the woman, and affirma¬ tive answers been given, he pronoun¬ ced them husband and wife. T» The Ladies.
