Phillips,of this city, who used to run a grocery and confectionery busi- ncaa here, and who haa of late been em ployed as night watchman at the Amer icas Gaano Works, was assaulted by un known parties Saturday night and beat en beyond semblance of humanity. The motive is supposed to bare been mercen ary, aa Ur. Phillips was known to have been paid off Saturday, and his assail ants evidently attacked him for the pur- pots of robbery. Bnt they felled to get anything and it is probable that, frightened at the ex tent of the outrage they bad committed, they fled without endeavoring to go farther and secure the money for which they bad come. , From the fact that Ur. Phillips' watch was found to have stopped at ten min utes to 12, It Is almost certain that this was the time at which he was attacked, his watch being broken and the band* pointing to that time. The reason why bis assailants failed to secure Ur. Phil lips' week's salary lies In the fact that after reaching bis post of duty be changed bis clothing entirely, only re moving his watch from the suit which he took off, and leaving his pocketbook and Its contents In the pocket of the vest hanging in the little Closet which he used for the purpose of keeping his clothing. In this closet were Ur. Phil lips’ shirt, collar, tie, etc., sll ef which were undisturbed when he was foand. From appearances it seems that the wounded man was first attacked in the alley adjacent to the main building where he bad gone to lock the door. From there Ur. Phillips tried to get back into the building, as Is proven by the bloody trail left by him from his move menu. & He was found fully 100 feet from where he was struck In a di rect line, and perhaps twice the distance by the way he evidently went. From the signs It seems that fas was trying to find his way ont and being blinded and dazed was unable to do so; then moving forward, as only he oonld do, ha finally came in contact with a bench In the far corner and remained there unable to proceed. It was here that be waa dis covered Sunday ifiorning at 5 o’clock, by Ur. O. W. Small, the night watchman at the 8. A. A M. railroad shops. Mr. 8mall was notified of Ur. Phillip's con dition by a negro who came to him seem ingly very much frightened and told Him that there was a man killed at the gnano works. Ur. Small hastened there at onoe and found Phillips In ani dying oondltlon. He wa*- removed and carried to hie borne on Church street, where he has ever slnoe been lingering between life and death. There are fivs fractures In hie eknll, besides a badly broken nose and numerous terrible bruises about the lower part of bis face. Hr. G. T. HUler is attending the wounded man and gives little hope for bis recovery, the chances for which are about one In fifty, each one of the won fads In bis bead being of a mortal character. Ur. Phillips has been totally nneoneclona since reoelring hie Injuries and In bis delirious wandering* entreats by name certain parties to spare bis life a* they have already nearly killed blip. Poor arrests have been made and If the right parties have not already been se cured, there is every probability, with the existing evidence, that the would- be-murderers and robbers will bo safely Jailed In a short time. Ur. Phillips has a wife and four young children. BKuaiotra AT THE THEATER. The friends end acquaintances of Mrs. Mary White and Ur. and Mrs. George U.

Enjoyable Services at the Churches Sunday. Sunday was a beautiful, typical Octo ber day. The glorious sunshine shone alike on the just and the nnjnst, and the good people of Americas felt that they had much to be thankful for and went In goodly numbers to their re spective churches. The services at the Baptist tent were specially interesting. After an able sermon by Dr. Campbell the election of deacons was in order. The election was by ballot and required a two-thirds vote to bo carried, and as there were six new deacons to bo chosen the services were prolonged far into the afternoon, bnt all were interested and the special service was very much enjoyed. The following gentlemen jure elected deacons: Judge Welborn Clark and Dr. Hath Is for three years, Mr. George Stapleton and Mr. W. T. Weekly for two years, Mr. George Seig and Mr. A. Dodson for one year. The presbytery will call a session at an early da e, when • lie newly-elected dea cons will be ordained. Mr. 8. K. Tay lor and Mr. Thornton Wheatley are the deacons holding over in their respective offices. Rev. Walter R. Dye, of Columbus, Miss.,delivered a beautiful and Impres- alre Sermon at Calvary Episcopal church on Sunday morning, which was listened to with special interest by his former parishioners, who were glad of the op portunity to hear again the words of truth fall from the lips of their beloved rector. Rev Robert Adams of the Presbyte rian church entertained a large congre gation and gave one of bis characteristic strong sermons abounding In wisdom and truth. The Methodist ohnrch was crowded to hear Rev. James B. Johnstone, the man of God who Is beloved by all who know him. His sermon went straight to the hearts of his hearers and all felt it waa good to be there. The congregation of the East Ameri cas' Methodist church enjoyed to the fullest extent the sermon of Rev. R. F. Williamson who labors so earnestly for the members of bis floek. A Question of Emphasis. In Justice to alt concerned, It Is prop er to rail attention to an. error- In Ur, Kenny’s card of Sunday, where he spoke of Uaj. Speer’s “oomlDg in and throw; ing down emphatically upon my desk” the article wbieh was published over bis signature Sunday. Major Speer merely faaaded the paper to me upon his entrance; and the “em phatic" part of the proceedings came In a fotf minutes later, whin Messrs. 8peer and Kenny became involved in a discus sion of the streej railroad matter, after Uaj.

"The Bottom of tbo •**” Will bo Played Before a Hood Audience, “The Bottom of tbo Sea” was played to a good audience last night The gal leries were crowded and the lower part of the house was well filled. “The Bottom of the sea Is one of William A. Brady’s startling and re alistic melodramas, and a good deal of the Interest In its production centers In the scenlo effects and mechanical fea tures. The story opens In the cabin of the passenger steamer Isabel on her voyage from the West Indies to Havre. The principal characters are on board. The first realistic scene shows the de struction of the vessel by the explosion of her boilers, the resene of the passen gers by a passing yacht and the sinking of tbe-IU-Jated steamer. After some episode* vhii-li transpire in France the scene change* t» the deck of a vessel laving a suhmsrlnebkhle. and heresomoof the more Intense dramatic incidents transpire. The hero of the play descends to the bottom of the sea to repair a break In the cable, and while encased In a diver's suit Is accompanied by the villain. At the very bed of the ocean, on the deck of the lunkeo passenger ateame-, which is where tlie break of the cable took place, the villain, with a hatchet, takes advantage of his enemy, who is at work on the broken cable, and cutting the air- pipe and life lines, leaves bis victim ap parently dead and ascends to the sur face. Incidentally there is an attack on the divert by an octopus and a thrilling realistic conflict In the subsequent scenes the hern, who has been miraculously saved by the air remaining In his helmet, come* to confront bis would-be assassin.—Macon Telegraph.
