CO.’S AGENT BE-
IH18 CONTRACT,
WS'-.
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. (

A Fine Plan.
Hon. W. J. 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.

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.
