Marsh, .Smith A- Marsh.
That is the title of the (inn that is to
succeed the old firm of Moore, Marsh
& Co.
This was settled yesterday morning,
and the details of the new partnership
were given to the business world.
I ublic interest in tho succession to the
old firm of Moore, Marsh A- Co., has
been greater in Atlanta than that over
any other event that has occurred for
many years. This old and reliablo firm
has held such a prominent place in the
esteem of the trade throughout the
southern states that every one will bo
gratified by the announcement that the
men who have been so largely instru
mental in its success are to romain In
active business, aud at the same old
stand.
The new firm is composed of Messrs,
K. W. Marsh, John A. Smith aud Mc
Allen B. Marsh, general partners, and
Hugh T. Inman, special partner.
Xonc of these gentlemen need an in
troduction to the merchants or people
generally of the south, Mr. E. W. Marsh
lias been, over since the foundation of
the firm of Moore A- Marsh many years
ago, universally recognized as one of the
strongest merchants of the south. Mr.
Smith has been long a member of the
present firm, while Mr. McAllen Marsh
is every where recognized as one of the
best young business men in the south,
and has been one of the active members
of the present firm.
The fact that Mr. Hugh Inman is to bo
largely internsted as a special partner in
tho new firm would he a strong endorse
ment of any firm.
The following gentlemen, who have
been long connected with the old firm,
and who are well known to the trade,
will have an interest in the profits of the
business: Messrs. Henry Dawson, Wil
liam Eckford, Frank I’erryman, Frank
Baker, Lawson Stapleton, Henry Wyatt
and Eugene Callaway.
Mr. Lawson Stapleton has many
friends and relatives in Americus who
will.be glad to learn of this well-de
served piece of good fortune, even
though it ho only a just recognition of
his merits and value. Mr. Stapleton, as
a traveling salesman has few equals in
this section, nnd his business acquaint
ance; extends over a wide territory,
throughout which he has hosts of friends,
and commands a large iniluence. The
new firm in retaining the interest of Mr.
Stapleton lias secured a valuable busi
ness associate.
"I’SE MOAS’ GOT BAR."
and shoes and hats, the new firm will
make a specialty, and deal only In shoes,
notions and white goods. The new firm
will confine itself strictly to these linos,
occupying the entire building.
The firm of Marsh, Smith A- Marsh
succeeds tho oldest wholesale dry goods
establishment in tho state, the old firm
having been founded over forty years
ago. The record of tho old firm is as
good as can be attained in commercial
circles. The new firm will begin Janu
ary 1st, and will have the prestige of the
old firm to back it. Tho gentlemen
forming it have almost unlimited capital,
and if practical common sonso wise
judgment, eneigy and push can bring
success to tho honest toilers, the gentle
men will not only uphold the prestige of
the old firm, but will surpass it, reaching
out into newer and higher fields.
The immense seven-story building at
the corner of Edgewood avenue and Pry
or street possesses every facility for car
rying on the great business which tho
firm will undoubtedly do.
The following well-known salesmen
who have been connected with the old
firm of Moore, Marsh <& Co. will remain
with the new firm of Marsh, Smith A
Marsh: Messrs. Louis Hess, Jack Farns
worth, Eugeno Harris, Will Cotter, Britt
Stamps, Ed Hornadv, Lyman Kateigh,
Bob Stokes, B. Sharp, Will Crowley,
John Hudson.
In the departments tho firm will con
tinue, Marsh, Smith A- Marsh will carry
with them all tlio men of these depart
ments in the old establishment.
The present firm dissolves January
1st, and the new will begin on that day.
Chokee Destroyed by Fir®.
Yesterday morning about .*J o’clock two
store houses witli contents and the tele
graph oltice at Chokee, Ha., wore burn
ed. The loss will probably reach $9,000,
with an insurance of about $4,000. The
property was owned by Mr. A. H. Sim
mons, who was absent from homo at tho
time, and tho fire is supposed to be of
incendiary origin. Full details could
not he obtained.
|!«n Wan the Horse.
At tho rattle last night at Oak Hall
Mr. Ben Fussell’s throw of 43 won the
horse. Several exchanges were made,
Mr. Fusxcll disposing of his chance to
Mr. Geo. Oliver for $7.;, and Mr. Oliver,
in his turn, disposing of the horse to the
original owner for $130. Quite a neat
little scoop for both gentlemen.

Death Come Like a Soft and Fleecy Mantle,
and Its Touch Had Been Painless.
They said there was an old colored
man in the smoking-car who was going
back to visit hts old plantation home in
Alabama, and I went In to talk to him.
I found him to be old and wrinkled and
white-headed, and when I expressed
wonder that bis friends in Kentucky
should let him set out on such a journey
he replied:
Dey jest couldn’t help derselves,
soli! I tole de chtl’cn I was bound to
cum, an’ dey jest had to let me.”
And how long since you left the old
plantation?”
‘‘IVay back in wall times, sail. I dun
went right oil wid some Y’ankee sogers,
an' dat’s do last I ebor did boo of Mars
Thomas’ folks. I’se gwine down to sur
prise ’em.”
“Whore is it?”
“Jest a loetlo ways out o’ Selma. Dey
tell me dar am great changes ’bout Sel
ma, but I reckon 1 kin walk right down
do road an’ find de plantasliun in do
night, llress de Lawd, sail, but I (loan'
reckon I could hev closed my eyes in
death if dey hadn't let me cum. Dar's
bin sicli a longin’ to see do olo place agin
dat I couldn’t stand it.”
Three or four of us chipped in to got
his moats and make him comfortable,
but wo saw tho journey was telling on
his strength On the morning of the
day we were to reach Selma I could see
that lie was weak and nervous, and when
I sat down beside him lie said:
“Ize feelln’ sort o’ skeart’bout myself
dis mawnin’. 1 bad a dream last night
dat I was walkin' long do road an’ met a
funeral, and when I axed who was gwine
to be buried a white man spoke up an'
said:
“ ‘Ton my soul if dat hain’t Mars
Thomas’s ole nigger, Job, who runned
away doorin' do war! Hcali, boy, let me
tole you sumthin'. Yo’ has cum too late
to see yer olo Mars; dat’s him In do cof
fin, an’ ho was axin' about yo' jest de
day afoh he died.’ "
I told him that dreams didn’t signify,
and after a bit the old man had quite
chirped up. I got him some tobacco for
his pipe and saw that lie had breakfast,
nnd as I left him lie smiled all over with
happiness as he said:
“Only two hours mo’ to Selma. Ize
moas got dar!”
Thirty minutes later the conductor
beckoned to three or four of us to come
into the smoker. The old man sat in his
seat, leaning against the side of the car,
and seemed to be sleoplng.
“He’s been dead ten minutes,” quietly
observed the conductor, “and he died as
peacefully os a child falling to sleep!”
So bo had. There was a smile on his
old black face—a smile of anticipation,
and the pipe had fallen from his fingers.
Death had come like a soft and fleecy
mantle, and its touch had been painless.

Little Callie Smith died last evening at
0 o'clock, aged about nine years. She
was the only child of Dr. T. E. Smith,
who practiced medicine here until his
death about three jears ago. Little Ca'-
lie was a sweet, winsome child, loved ny
all who knew her. Left an orphan al
most before she had passed infancy, she
was taken Into the family of her aunt
and was tenderly cared for until her
death. She died of typhoid-malaria.
About two weeks ago the little three-
year-old daughter of Mr. Geo. W. Poole
of this city was taken with whooping
cough, which was successfully treated by
Dr. L. M. McLendon, a cr her recovery
she was seized with cuiIts and these
were broken by tho same physician. She
went to sleep, apparently in perfect
health, six days ago and since then lias
been buried in profound slumber, from
which all efforts to arouso her have prov
en ineffectual. Almost all of the physi
cians have been consulted and find thorn-
selves powerless to break this sleep,
which, if continued, must end in the
death of tho child.
There scorns to he nothing wrong with
the patient savo the deep unbroken
slumber which has seized upon her, the
pulse being healthily normal, with an
entire absence of fevor. The attending
physicians say that unless something can
he done to arouse her she must suroly
die, and have tried every means in their
power without effect.
The little girl was a bright, healthy
child, the light and life of her home and
evinced no peculiarity which mado her
different from other children of the same
age.
This somnolent affection sometimes
occurs to adults, but there are recorded
few, if any, instances of the disease
among young children.

The Superior Court of Macon county
was convened this morniug at 10 a. m.,
promptly, with the Hon. W. II. Fish on
tile bench.
This being Judge Fish’s first sitting in
his own county, quite a largo concourse
of the citizens of the surrounding coun
try wore in attendance to liston to his
charge to the grand jury.
His Honor's charge, whilst full, was
commended on all sides for its pains
taking lucidness, leaving no matter of
import a matter of doubt In the minds
of the grand jury.
At noon Judge Boynton of the Flint
circuit took the bench In order to facil
itate the progress of many cases in
which Judge Fish was disqualified by
reason of his connection os attorney.

THE WORLD'S FAIR CONVENTION
To Re Held In Macon on Friday, December
4 th—Composed of Georgia Editors.
The Times-Recorder lias received
from the temporary executive committee
appointed by the World’s Fair conven
tion held in Macon, October 27th, an In
vitation to be present at a meeting of
this committee in conjunction with tbe
representatives of the state press, de
signed to formulate some plan of action
through which Georgia's resources may
be fitly displayed at tbe Columbian Ex
position at Chicago in '03.
The Times-Recorder is in hearty
sympathy with the object of this meet
ing and will cheerfully devote any space
necessary towards accomplishing tho de
sired result.
Tho movo on the partof the committee
in calling together the Georgia press is
likely to prove of great benefit to the
causo, and it is probablo that there aro
few papers within the borders of the
commonwealth which will not cheerfully
lend their iniluence and co-operation to
the raising of thenocessary amount.
The editorsare invited to be the guests
of Macon during the convention and
those who ha to partaken of the whole-
souled hospitality of the Central City
aro looking forward to tho convention
with unraixed pleasure.
An Old Citizen Gone.
Dr. W. N. L. Crocker died in Marshall
vlllc on Wednesday, the 4th Inst., of
pneumonia, in tile 87th year of his age
Dr. Crocker was born near Athens in
the year 1805 and moved to Twiggs
county early in life. He mastered the
rudiments of education in Twiggs, and
then wont to Philadelphia, wlioro he
took a course of study and graduated in
medicine.
Returning from the East Dr. Crocker
located at a point near Marshallville,
then in Houston county, but now in Ma
con county, where he indulged in suc
cessful practice of his profession until
the outbreak of tlic war.
In tbe year 18110 he moved to Americus
and here made his home until the un
settled times of 1875, when ho removed
to Leo county, remaining there until
1879. In 1879 lie went back to bis old
homo in Macon county near Marshall-
vtlle, where bo remained until his death.
Dr. Crocker was tho father of Mr. E.
C. Crocker of this city, and was during
lifo a man of prominence and distinc
tion. In the early forties he represent
ed Houston county in the state legisla
ture, and was probably at the time of
his death the only survivor of the body
of which ho was a member. Later he
represented both Marion and Macon
counties in the stato senate, and hla
record is one upon whioh his descen
dants dwell with pride.
Dr. Crocker joined the ’ Methodist
church in 1855 and has ever since been a
faithful and consistent member.

There are few establishments of the
kind in the State of Georgia which can
compare in point of completeness and
stylo of stock with the haberdashery of

on Jackson street, anil yosterday pas
sers-by were particularly struck with the
beauty and graceful arrangement of the
contents of the handsome show windows.
Umbrellas and walking canes in new and
novel designs, and at almost any price;
ties in the utmost profusion and of a be
wildering variety of cost nnd pattern:
linen, hosiery and general furnishing
goods lo suit any taste, while the as
sortment of stylish blocks in the cele
brated Knox hat did good to the eye of
he whose pet hobby lies in head-gear.
The quantity and variety of these hats
brought out this season by Mr. Bailey
goes to show plainly that in point of
style and quality they aro beyond chal
lenge.
