Matthews, the deputy tax collector o( Bike County, was knocked down and robbed of $1740 which he had on hi» person belonging to the county. There were various report* of the affair yesterday, but the most au¬ thentic give* tb<- abowe asm as the amount taken. It seems that Mr. Matthews had been out collecting that day and had just returned home a little after dark with the moneys. He runs a store between Zebulon and MartiusdaJe» near New Hope church. Some say that he had got out of his buggy to go into the store, and others that he waa ‘allied from his house neat' by, by some one who pretended to want to buy some goods from the gtoie. Anyhow, as he entered the door and struck a match, he waa hit in the head with a rock And n the scuffle waa stabbed half a doz¬ en times. His assailants succeeded in getting what they were after and escaped without identification, al¬ though they are said to be a mulat¬ to and a white man. COMING TOURIST TRAVEL. The Northern People Preparing to Winter In the South. General Manager H. S. Haines, of the Savannah, and Florida and Western railway, has returned home from New York, where lie has been for the past month, and he reports that there is now no doubt of a very' large tourist travel southward this winter. Mr. Haines says that numerous in quiries were made with reference to the De Soto hotel, and tourists south Will not fail to stop over in Savan¬ nah this winter in greater numbers than ever before. The hotels here also have advices that there will be a heavy northern travel to Jeorgia and Florida this season. It is yet early in the season, but it appears that those who con¬ template wintering in the south have begun early to make inquiries. A se¬ vere winter is predicted, and, bliz¬ zards being unknown in this section, the eyes of the northern tourist are already turned southward. A first-class hotel in Griffin would have been filled by this time witlx people not yet ready to go to Flori¬ da, many of whom would remain most of the winter. As it is, we will have the pleasure of seeing them pass through. flft mm Sweet as Rom / I \ Fragrant!Lasting! The I-C'iuag Trice M Ct*. ■bjoaFUJiS. Sold at Droggiata. '.n@ Slssfrati druggists.
