THE HILL POND MATTER
The City Connell Stopped by Judge
Bower from Trying tbe Cose.
Tuesday night was the time set
by the council to try the Mitchell
mill pond case, the pond having
been condemned some time ago by
tbe Board of Health. As Judge
Fort was disqualified, E. G. Sim
mons, attorney for Mr. Mitcbell,
went down to Albany, Tuesday, to
get Juuge Bower to issue an injunc
tion restraining the council from
trying the case. Judge Bower
listened to tbe plea, and gave a re-
straining order, stopping the coun
cil from trying it, and setting the
time to bear the case on Tuesday,
28th, at Isabella, when he would
decide whether to issue an injunc
tion or not. A telegram was sent
to Mayor Felder, telling bim not
to try the case, and tbe necessary
papers would be forwarded on next
mail.
Thursday morning tbe council
met in consultation with Judge
Hawkins, tbeir attorney, and de
cided to make out tbe necessary
papers and let the Judge go down
at night and try and have tbe or
der modified to let the council try
tbe case.
In any event it seems that tbe
case will go to tbe Supreme Ceurt,
as both sides are determined to'
fight it to the last. So far as the
council is concerned, all they wish
to do is try the case on its merits,
if it can be proven that the pond \
is not unhealthy and does not OOTTOM’
cause sickness, they do not wish
to condemn and break it. But in
justice to tbe people of Americus,
it is theit duty to see that no cause
for great sickness is allowed to lie
open in the city it it can be re‘
moved. As for the council saying
that they are determined to break
tbe pond, that is all nonsense, as
not a member Iras expressed an
opinion either way.

nouncing that his little daughter
Lizzie was fatally burned. She is

Cottou on Fire
Yesterday afternoon fire broke
out in a bale of cotton at Council
A Williford’* warehouse, and only
the prompt work oi the employees
prevented a serious conflagration.
The bale was brought from Bald
win’s gin early in the morning and
was supposed to be on lire on the
inside, as they could smell the
burning cotton, hut could not locate
‘ It. One of the gentlemen informed
the reporter that they saved them*
1 selves by about live seconds.
Now,
While the cotton is rolling in, is a good
time to settle that old account.

An exchange truthfully puts the
matter thus: “ltiaau experience
of publishers that too many people
think it matters hut little whether
the newspaper bill is paid promptly
or not, that it is ouly a small sum,

is not because subscribers are un-

; are negligent. Each one imagines
because his year's indebtedness
amounts to ho small a sum, tbe
