Waycruss has al ready liegun the good wurk, and yet Jacksonville is in a muddle over her streets, and cau’t find a suitable paving for them. . The wild snap of Friday night, the 18th, did much ilamage to fruit crops and truck farming. Much loss in this section wilt result to growers from the killing of all early vegetables, melons and young tobacco plants, though the latter will lie replanted to a considerable extent. A diversity of opinion exists as to the extent to which the pear crop has suffered, and the lielief is expressed that the unquestiou ilily short crop will be remunerative to the shipper as would have been the unusually Urge yield >mised before the freeze. Another Fire. Sunday night, at near the hour of midnight, our people were startled from sleep by such a blowing of the engines about the depot as unmistakably denoted fire, or some public calamity. The residence oo the corner of Brunei ami Reed streets, occupied by Mr. J. V. Norton, was discovered to be on fire, the flames having made such headway be fore the sleeping inmates were conscious of their peril, a» to give thiwe in the upper story barely time to escape. These were Mrs. Paine and child, her brother, Mr. May, and Mr. Jack Norton, all of whom liad the misfortune to lose their wardrobe* and other possessions in the upper rooms. Our citizens did kindly and eflectual work in saving the greater part of the furniture on the first floor, as well as in preventing the spread of the fire to adja cent buildings. To Mr. Rob Murphy and his co-workers probably belong the credit of preserving from distraction the residence of Mr. Lucius Jenkias, which was badly scorched and in imminent danger. Mr. Nelson was in charge the east and saved the building oil that »ide. Had the wind been blowing, the result must have been much more disas trous. Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Reed wish to ex tend their sincere thanks to the kind friends who came to their assistance. The burned building belonged to the estate of Brack Bennett, and was insur ed for one thousand dollars. The origin of the fire is not known, but is supposed to have been due to a defective flue iu an upper room. Smith—Carswell. A quiet ceremony, under the direction of Rev.

HOW THEY OUT HERR. The way all auction trash gets in this part of the country is this: When goods o old in New York and other large' cities that they could write a history of the couutry, they are cleaned over and dyed some other color and bundled oft* other fiarts of the country to be jmshed and shoved off on an innocent and unsuspecting pub.ic. Wc have no desire to lower the mercantile profession to this level, buf we will always keep nothing but the best of everything and sell it for less than auction dives ad! trash. Brad Watson &. Co. * The Keystone, a handsome publica tion in New York, speaks of the firm, now Bennett A Weller, in this compli mentary way: CannonWeller, “the live jeweler® of WayCross, Ga.,” wellnigh captured the Christinas number of the Waycross Herald, aud not without reason, fog their stock was the largest and finest ever brought into that thriving little city, and needed quite a full page even to catalogue them. They proved their liveliness, not only in their beautiful stock in all con ceivable variety, butin their appreciation of the value of advertising. From Our Legal Correspondent. Baxley, Ga., March 18.—The Supe rior court of Appling county has been in session here during the present week. The civil docket lias claimed and will claim exclusive attention until Friday night, when the court will be adjourned in order to enable Judge Atkinson to hear an injunction petition set for Sat urday in Brunswick. , , The docket is very crowded and unless the calender for the Brunswick circuit is rearranged, the necessity tor a call term each year will continue to exist. The 20th of June next has been named for the convention of such s term of Ap pling Superior court. It is proposed then to dispose of all the damage suits filed here against the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad Co. There are eight or ten in number and many of them for very considerable sums. The criminal docket will bp cleared at that time, and it may be fair to conclude that there will be a very full week’s work. Several issues involving possession of certain lots of land in county have been tried. Filing affida- vids of forgery seems to have been the order; and, what is extremely difficult to do, and seldom seen done, was in those cases done, namely, the forgeries estab lished. Ye owners of timber lands Appling county, beware of the land deed forger. There are a goodly number of visiting lawyers here, including Cols. Sweat and Hitch of Waycross; Maj.

The latest indications are that the fruit crop about Waycross was not seri ously damaged by the recent cold. On the Cherokee Farm all of the Kelsey plums were killed, but the Botana and other late flowering varieties escaped en tirely. Peaches and pears were not cut off more than 30 per cent, and will have all the trem should bear. Nat with stand! ngthe freeze this will be a good fruit year.
