A YOUNG MAN 'NAMED BARNES is DODG ING IIS INHERITANCE. He Has Moukeyed With Lawyers in Au gusta and Savannah. New York, January 26 —Anthony Barnes,a formergvoung New Yorker,is playing hide and seek about the coun try to the discomfort ot his farther and tlie city chamberlain. The young man is heir to $lO,OOO, which was lett him by his mother, who received it i{rom her brother. Young Barnes has heen running away from home off and on for the last fifteen years. Some years ago he joined a circus, and af ter that he wasn’t heard of until a few monthg age. Hehad in the mean time become an heir, and his father who is 4 Freenwhich street merchant, wanted to see him very much. Al vertisements were put in the paper offering $5OO reward for any one who would fiud him and bring him to New York. Letters were received by Lawyer Pape, who had charge of the search, from 50 or 100 yonng men who professed to be the missing heir. Oue day a young man canme {into Pape’s office with a lawycr from Idasvilton, Ohio. He had evidence thut de was the huuted young man, aud the fawyer sent him to Mr. Bara nes' house, Mr. Barnes said he was an impoe ger, and he would kick kLim out. ““Negou don’t dad,”” re pied the claimant, ~‘you usta could, but you e~2’t now.® That sounded to the «id geatleman like his missing son, and he investi sated the young man’s story. He coueluded fiually tirat the young wman was veally his son, and was ready to! own kim asg such, when the heir dis appeared. That was the Jisc seen of him. He was heard from in Phila~ delphia.*; A telegram was sent there to head hiw for New York, Before it reached Philadelphia the heir had disappearel again. He was mnext heard trom in ¢ incinnati. Another telegram started @fter him, but he had {lown again. since ther he has }iuecu heard {rom in Chicago, St. Paul, San Francisco, St. Loais, Kansas } City. Quebec, Seattle, + alia Walla, San Autonio, Dallas, New Orleans, Augusta, G, Savannah and Jdacke sonville. #e ealled on lawvers at ench of those places and showed them the advertizement offering the res! ward. He has-proved his identity to cach of the lawyers, and induced them to write 10 lawyer Pape. As soon a 8 Pape received ‘a letter he would send 2 telegram, but invariably the young wan has got away beiore the telegraa reached its destination, Mr. Barnes holds an assiznment for half the money due his son, and he has demanded $e amount from the Chamberlain, whe Eas refused to pay it. Now a suit widl be begun.— Young Barnes willhe a useful wit ness if the telegraph evar catches up with him.

Right here sir," said the clerk; with a broad smile, produc ing the register. Mr. Depew wrote his name in a hold hand, and then sat down In the hotel lobby.

Fulton, a Dawsonian, who has won houor and distinction in Texas, will 'beread with much interest by his ‘many friends here. The clipping is from a Galveston paper, of which city he is the honored mayor: “One of the greatest secrets ot Gal veston's eminence among the cities of the earth is the efficiency of the men who have the affaiirs ot the city in haund. Galveston has been blessed tor many years with officials who have kept well in the paths of their fore fathers, and the admivistration has been handed down from time to time to men who regarded their position as a sacred heritage, each successive ad« ministration striving to leave to their succeseors better material to work on than they had to begin with, thus perpetuating and embellishing the dreams of the founders of the city, Uuder the direction of the present admivistration, Galveston has ount.stripped the prosperity of all former years, and her rapid de velopment has be)n due to the enter prise and push, ability, honesty and integrity ot such able and enterpris ing men as Hox. R, L. Furrox. Car tain Fulton has filled the office of mayor for ten consecutive years. The citizens of Galveston may well point to cheir executive with pride. Throagh bis efforts the fair name of Galveston has been conveyed to the remotest part of the civilized world By an honest and judicious expendi ture of the public money, gathered from the peopic, and without levy ing burdensome taxer, Captain. Ful ton has managed to run a big city at a small expense, Captain Fulton i» a native of Georgia, but has heen 1 Texas s 0 loaz and identified wit} termed a Texan.

It iz a plensant ride from Ajbany to Richlard. The distance is forty eight miles and the Columbus Sonth ern makes it in one and one-half houra. The sountry through which the road pusses 18 splendid. No other 48 miles in the state ean compare to it. The lands are level, verv fer tile, and for the most part oak and hickory. The mostinviting part of the road, so far ag the lands are eon« cerned, is from Pareott to Weston, between Dawson and Rickland. Rpeaking of Weston, recalls 1 vre mark of old Farmer Simmons, who resides onehasf mile fro m Weston. Said he: “Thirty years ago, when 1 settled here, I thought it hard to be forced to haul eotton to Macon. When the ;Southwestern road was completed, it was hard to haul it 20 miles to Dawson. Whenthe 8. A, M. Road was built, I felt it hard to have te haul nine miles to Richland. Now wheu the Columbus Southern is in oneshalf mile I am raising h—ll because it doa’t pass the front door.” —Macon Telegraph. : He was Palled in Dawson, Too.

A Judze Who™ Took WBelight in Pro wonneing Deaihi Upon s Prisoner. One of the most eceentric and at the same time cne of the ahiest judges that ever sat upon the far western bench was Kirby Benedict, who, for thirteen years, was a justice of the supreme court of New Mexieo, fav~ ing been first appointed in 1858 by President Pierce and reappointed by President Buchanan, and nppoin-befl{ chief justice of the court by President Lincoln. He was a man of great ability and learning, strong in his prejudices, violent in his passions and relentless in his genvictions. There are many anecdotes told of Judge Benedict: But the crowning act of his judicigl career, wae the sentence of death passed by him upon a prisoner convicted of murder, which sentence was as follows: ‘ “Jose Maria Martin stand up. Jose Maria Martin you have been indicted, tried and convicted by a jury of your countrymen of the crime of marder, and the courtis now about to pass upon you the dread sentence of the law. As a usual thing, Jose Maria Martin, it is a painful duty for a Judgo of the court of justice to pronounce upon a human being the sentence of death. There is somes thing horrible about it, and the mind of the court naturally revolts from the performance ot such a duty. Happily, however, your case is re lieveq of all such unpleasantness, and the court takes positive delight in isentcncing you to death. % ~ You are a young man, Jose Maria, apparently oi good physical constitus tion and robust health, Ordinarily | vou might bave looked forward to ‘many years of life, and the court has| iuo doubt you have, ani have expect ed to die atagreen old age; but you re about to be cut oft as the conse ‘quence of your own act. Jose Marin Martin, it i mow in spring time: in ittle while the grass will be sprin fug up in these heautitul valleys, ano m these broad mes s and mountai sides fluwers will be bloonting, and the birds singing sbove your lowly head, “The gentence of the court is that vou he *aken fiom this place to the county jail, that you there be ket safely apd geeurely confined in the castody of the sherifl until the day appoinged oy yon execation. Be very careful Mr. Sheriff, that he has n 6 opportunity to escape, and that you have him at the appo uted place at the appointed time, and that you bero kept Jose Marin Martin, until‘] —Mr. Clarke on what duy of the month does Friday about two wev!\s! trom this come?” “Murch 22, your l honot.Y “YVery weil—until Friday, the 224 of Mareh, when you will be | taken from you place of confinement to some safe and convenient spot within the zounty (that is in your digeretion, Mr. Sneriff; you are only confined to the limits ot the ceunty), and that you be hanged by the neck until you are dead, and—the court wag about to add, Juse Maria Martin, ‘may God have mercy on your soul,’ but the court will not assume the re sponsibility of asking an all-wige providence to do that which a jury of your people have refused tc do. The Lord couldn’t have merey on your soul. However, if you have any res ligious belief, or are connected with any religions organization, it might be well enough lor you to send for your priest or your mivister and get from him—well, such consolation as you can; but the court advises you to place no reliance upon anything of‘ that kind. blr. Sheriff, remove the prisoner-"—Santa [e letter in Pittss burg Leader. | Dawson Is !nterested In This, The Wlls providing for federal courts at Columbus and Athens were teported favorably to the senate to day. Both bills have passed the house, and the chances are they will become laws before congress expiress. The Columbus bill, providing for a | western division of the northern ju dicial district of (eor_ia, provides for the tollowing ecounties: Muscogee, Heard, Troup Moriwether, Harris, Talbot, Taylor, Marion, Chattahoo chee, Stewart, Schley, Webster, Quitman, Clay, Randolph, Calhoun, Early, Baker, Miller, Dceatur and Terrell. The Athens bl provides for a west ern division of the northern, composed of the courties of Banks, ¢larke, Elbert, Franklin, Greene, Habersham Hirt, Jackson, Morgan, Madison, Oglethorpe. Oconee and WValton, Each ot the bills provide for two terms of court annually. Both bills are exactly similar to the one that passed the house.

[ The gentlemen in quest'on was the wxecutive head ot ene.of Americus first business enterprises—-an institus tion whose career ot prosperity has been 80 stsady that it has constntly to keep its eye open tor eulargement at home and expansion over other fields, This Americus gentleman whose vorce is heard in many markets, never tails upon oceasion to pay tribute to the intelligent comprehension and the prompt enterprise of Dawson ecapitals 'iels. I have reasons to kuow that its trequent repetition upon the lips of a 'vigorous and enthusiastic business man has helped materially to swell the gathering volume of Dawson’s com mercial repute, and to emphasize the good name which 8o many events of the last two years have given the city. I The truth is, it we only knew it, Dawson is ewjoying a remarkably healthy reputation just now among the well intormed people of the couns try. Beyond the solid prosperity of its business houses, the advance in its methods, the expansion of its buss iness movements and the improve. ments of its public works and places, the wonderful and gigantic develop went of its railroad interests has turned public attention to it to degree that should be realized and itilized by every sagacity of onr nunicipal life. And g 0 it goes everywhere that Dawson is neck deep in the aunshine f business, promise an | prospority. Let us reaize then that this era is opportani.y golden,slourious opportu inty and let us meet it with sleriness diligence and comageouns seizare o events, Here is the yolden rule for building citiess Cosopperative and comageous enterprise. Those words should be writenr as u lezead or ius spiration upon the high places of every public building, and over the managers’ desk of every conuting house in Dawson. With' judicious courage the most prodizious results may be attained in business, But even ccurage, judicioys, and steady and willingly, may be thwarted and nulified by lack of anity and co=op eration amonfi the torces movinr to a comn.on end. There isn't a city in southwest Georgin with a present promise of developtwen equal just now to Dawson. Lt us get into phalant and go out to meet it. It may be justas well to finda bet ter model 1n other things, but in the name of a justified and gloriously vindieated policy, lat us emuicate Americus united and unfailing ener gy of co~operative enterprise, This is all that is needed to enable Dawson to staud on the platform of her car of progress and wave Ameri« cus a cheerful commerciil adieu. A Story of a Man, “Young man, take my advice and pay for things as you go. Donot run up bills." This was the sage advice of a well known business man the other day. “Why?” continued he, ““because in the end you will have to pay tor it all, and there is no telling for how much else besides, 1 will tell you a little incident that came under my observation recently, aund you will see why I say so. The proprietur of a large provision store in this city made a credit sale of a fine ham to one his customers, but much to hix‘ surprise be found out a little later that lie had forgotten to whem he | had sold it and failed to make any ‘ note of it, “{his bothered him somewhat uns | til a happy thought strack him. He sudgeled the gray matt rin hisirain and recalled the names of thirteen. men who happened to be in the store at the time the transaction took place, thouh for the lite of him he could not think which one had gone ofi with that piece of swine. But, noth. ing daunted, told Lis bookkeeper to charge wp one ham to each of those thirl.een“%:ﬂurent accounts, telling him at the same time that when twelve of the men objected to pu)ingi for it to explain to them that it wns\ a mistuke that would not oceur again, | “What happencd? Why, twelve of that party pmd their bills without a question and only one raised any ohjection on account of the pork item. So at least eleven, and very likely all twelve, hud paid for something that | bad not been bought and that some- INVOLUNTARY DECOLEITE. A SHOULDER STRAP'S ILL-IIMED BREAK AT A RECEPTION. An incident occurred at the White House roception on Friday evening that has since been the talk of the social world of Washington, writes the New York Suu's ecapitol corres- 1 pondent. A lady prominent in 80- | ciety, the married daughter of a wealthy Western senator, who is al widewer, was the heroine m; vietim. She is noted for the magnifis, cence of her extremely decollette cose tumes, aud, on this occasion, the dress was a decollecte indeed. The bodice was simply a piece of filmy lace and a small bit of satin not much wider than a waist belt, with a nar row shoulder strap which supported the whole garment. The lady remoy ed her wraps and enwred the biue room on the arm of her father, They passed down the line ot the receiving party and mingled with the guests in the reception room proper, Post master-General Waoamaker had just offered his arm to the lady prepara tory to a promenade through the east room when the accident occurred. The trail support that held the waist in place over the plump, white shoulders gave way, and the loosened protection of lacs and ribbons slid down over the arms in a hopeless awkward manver. Had it not been for the large bouquet of roses tha t was carried by the lady and utilized a 8 a screen, the predicament would have proven even more embarrassing tof, owing to the density of the throng, immediate escape was impossi ble. The wite of a Western senator, when she saw the accident, assisted the unfortunate lady to the cloak room, in the absence of Mr. Wanas maker, who had fled. When she returned to her triends she said: *I have been looking for several win< ters for that accident to happen.” A Monkey Language. Scientists have stumbl-d upon the fact that monkeys have a language, and that while it is crude and some. what abbreviated, the members of that tribe are enabled by it (o fully express their wants aud air their opinions among their companions, The' discovery was made by Dr. Gar ner of Roanoke, Va., who succeeded in getting » monkey to talk inw a graphophone and atterwards scudied the elementary sounds. Five words have been made out—the sounds ex~ pressing fear, food, anger, apprecias tion and pain, and the doctor believes he will saon discover enough of their vocabulary to enakle him to establish intelligent communication between the man and the monkey, W hat a field of spaoulation this discovery opens! It seems that the South is upon the eve of a Jgreat ex odus movement on the part of the regroes, and our old-time ootton pickers seem bent on leaving. Who knows but that the monky may take his place and by means ot the dis covery be gradually brought to hoe the erops, pick the cotton, gather the grain, and eyen split wood on a eold tfrosty morning? Who knows, but that in years to come shiploads of monkeys may he gathered to the shores of America by the thri'ty Pu ritans and sold at so many dollars per head to the Southern farmers, the same as their dusky forerunners were scld by the progenitors of the Puria tans aforesaid? Who can tell, also, whether or not, in the years to come, the missing link ot the researchiul Darwin may not be discovered and the monkey take its place anong the people of the earth? And this discovery being made, who but they would be raised to all diguities of cit izens, empowered with electric: Yrans chise by a 44th Amendment the Constitution, and be used to swell the weakening ranks of the great Repub lican party. The mind staggzers as it reaches into the tield of speculation thrown wide open by the dire discovery ot a monkey langaage, and tha blessings and curses stalk forth like grim and hastly spcetros, Ifall thesz are ¢ come from the di covery, the ¢ r.es outweigh the blessings, aud if the importation cf African moukeys would eatail the train of evils which their human forerunners entailed, in.. vestigation ot the language should cense, and the playful monkey allow ed te busk in the shades of ignorance to fill bis allotted sphere as the wons derand d light of the small boy and the natural complement of the bais rel-organ and the open street cons cert., Let the investiga.ion mto monkey aspirates, linguale, gutturals and la bials be halted, and let his ignorance of the Eaglish language and’ its at tendant disasters and perplexities res main forevermore.-—Greenshoro Her. aldeJournal. ¥ SLEEPLFSS NI!GHATS, made wiserable by that terrible cough.

' | Singular Produet of an Otherwise l Well-Disposed Animal. - Rupert Hansborough, leather deal er of Chillicothe, 0., is the possessor of & natural curiosity in the shape of & cow which gives black milk, She |is on Mr. Hansborough’s farm, sit { uated a few miles out of towa, and can be seen at any time grazing in ! his pasture, and at milking time her | sinzular yield will be showa anyone ; desiring to behold it. Of mixed breed, Jersey and Durham, with a strain of Avyrshire, she was calved on the farm and was the second born to her moth. er whose milk presented no peculiari.. ty, and whose first calf, a heifer, . too, still gives an abuudant of natural tinted milk. : Mollie. as she is called, isa pretty little cow, with nothing unusual in her appearance, and has borne al ready five young, which have thriven ' well on her black milk. .It produces a fair amount of cream, which is a trifle lighter in color, and which, - when churned, makes butter resems bling cola tar, but as palatable as though of golden yellow. Mr. Hans ‘borough says that at first they were afraid to drink or use the milk in any way, but, overcoming their prejuice, now enjoy it a 8 any other. He has received numbers of offers for her, both fiom the proprietors of museums and stockmen, but declined them from hopes tha! she will yet transmit her peculiarity to some ot her progeny. Chemists in Richmond and Washington have analyzed the milk, both fresh and made into but~ ter, but declare that they can detect nothing to account for its sable color, but attribute it to some unique coloring pigmentin the corpuscles, of ber blood.-—Detroit Tribune, ; Wonderful§Curiosity. There is in Macon a living ossified man. His name is C. D. Hicks. He was 54 years old last New Year's day. He was a fireman cn a railroad termin sting at Racine, Wis. Oa that day, raged ove of the fiercest snow storms ever known in that section, and in/il'. were gtorm bound the engine and tgaia on which Mr. Hicks was empl%o;_l. His engineer was thrown h'orﬂ"&he engine and lost in the blizzard.” Mr. Hicks was so exhausted” from overwork and loss of sléep that for hcurs he slept standing at his post, with his clothes frozen to him, When released he went to a hotelin Beliot, Wis., and betore retiring directed that his clothes - be dried, which request was neglected, compelling him in the morning to put them on damp. For thirtyssix honrs tollowipg he worked with the thers mometer below zero, When he returned to his home in Racine, he was atticked by a vio'eat : cold; over two month s afterward he recovered sufficiently to do so light work in the company’s shops. Twelve years ago last April he was taken with violent pains, which were soon followed by the gradual ossification of all hislimbs and then hisbody. The hardships he bad endured had frozen and destroyed the marrow in all his bones excepting his head. For eleven years he has lain in his bed, helpless and motion'ess. His vital organs are comparitively healthy, but his body and limbs are absolutely dead. He can slightly move his left arm. His jaws became set, and teeth had to be extracted, in order to have an aperture through which he could be fed. His eye~ sizht gave out with his other fune tions,but he can still distinguish light from darkuness. His appetite is good and no one thinks more of taking good care of his health and wishes more to avoid the inevitable grave than does Mr. Hicks, Heis a good conversationalist, and is pleased to talk with penple who visit him.—Macon News.
