McDonough. Ga., Feb 10, 1893.
Uvigs ton’s Life Threatened.
A special dispatch from Washington,
Wednesday last, says Mr. Mutchler, of
Pennsylvania, has recevied a letter from
Erie, Pa., signed by “Many Soldiers"
in which the lives of he and Colonel
Livingston, of Georgia, are threatened
for the part they took in amending the
pension appropriation bill in committee.
The letter states that if they do not
cease to fight pensions they will be as
sassinated.
Colonel Livingston is particnlarly
indignant and declares he will make the
same fight in the house toward cutting
down the pension list that he did in
committee. He is not opposed to giv
ing pensions to those who deserve them
for service, but is opopsed the the ex
avtragance of the pension bureau.
Georgia Midland Shut Out.
A sensation was created among the
railroads in Atlanta last Saturday, by
the officials of the East Tennessee road
being ordered not to carry any more
Georgia Midland cars into the shed
there.
The through line from Atlanta to
Thotnasville, via McDonough, is prov
ing to be a very popular one, affecting
travel over the Central, and the action
is thought to be brought about through
revenge from that road.
The Georgia Midland through coach
es have therefore been discontinued for
the present, but arrangements were at
once made by which other coaches are
used and the line run on without inter
ruption .
By the way, the Georgia Midland
attorneys have just filed with the clerk
of the court of Muscogee county, for
record, the mortgages which will secure
the new issues of bonds.
The papers will have to he recorded
in all the counties through which the
road runs. Iu this matter the Georgia
Midland and Gulf, as usual, seems to be
on top. as nearly all the other roads in
the state have failed on reorganization
and are in the bands of receives. This
road has a way of catching on her feet
in emergencies, and it is to be hoped
the usual good luck will be attendant
upon her in the contest with the present
management of the Central railroad in
the matter of Atlanta connections.
Hurrah for tho Georgia Midland—
she is all right.
The tax collectors and tax receivers
of Georgia are getting themselves into
close quarters. Up to date but few of
them have sent in their bonds to the
comptroller geueral of the state and
they have but little more than a week
now in which to do it. The law says
these bonds must all be filed with the
comptroller general on or before Feb.
14 after the election in Jauuary. If
they are not in the comptroller gener
al’s hands by that time the fact is made
known to the governor an he at once
orders another election for tax collec
tors or receivers who have not come to
taw on time. The recently elected
tax officials for Henry are not among
those referred to above, having already
forwarded their bond.
Killed by a Train.
Mr. Thomas Gammage, a former
well known citizeu of Stockbridge, was
run over and instantly killed by a pas
senger train, three miles below Atlanta
on the Central road, at Gammage
station, early last Tuesday night, while
crossing the track in his buggy. It
was a horrible accident, of which Wed
nesday's Constitution gives quite a
lengthy account.
Mr. Gammage was 57 years old, and
well-to do. He owned a large tract of
land at Gammage Station, had a splen
did home there, and was a member of
the firm of Gammage, Nuttles & Co.,
which does a large busiuess at the sta
tion. He leaves two sons and a mar
ried daughter, Mrs. Suttles. Their
Stockbridge friends deeply sympathize
with the family in their sad bereave
ment.
One of the most flourishing schools
we have heard of in the county is
being taught by Prof. W. D. Tarpley,
at Bethany chapel. On the roster of
this school eighty pupils are enrolled.
Prof. Tarpley is a splendid teacher, j
and the people of that vicinity seem to
be fully aware of the fact.
Mrs. Sarah Evans departed this life
at her borne in Tussahaw district on
last Friday, the 3rd inst. She was
eixty-four years old at the time of her
death. Six children are left to mourn
the loss of a Christian mother. Peace
to her ashes.
We learn that Dr. Raleigh High
tower, of White Hous", was recently
united in marriage to Mrs. Linza
Morris, also of this county. We doff

fair bride, and waft them our hearty
congratulations.
