138 gentleman who likes sociability i
and hospitality, but at the 'same[
time, he does not admire a man
who delights in calling at unseason, [
able hours, without sending in his'
card or announcing himself in|
some manner, Of course it would ’
"ot frighten him, but it would
make him feel embarrassed to wake‘
up at 2:15a. m., and eatch the
dim outlines of a man in his room, ’
vho was not accustomed to pay
inz him nightly visits,
Not wishing to have his home
circle disturbed Capt. D. struck up
on the following plan to keep the
thief from his room. '
The.next night, on retiring, he '
left 50cts in his pantaloons pockett
aod hung them on a chair near an |
open window where the thief had !
entered the previous night, Then |
it the money was st )len he would
on the next night, hang his clothes |
on the front porch with more mon
ey in the pants pocket. If the thief
should gesist in taking the money
from his pocket, he would, on the
following night, put his clothes out
in the yard. From this we see that
Capt. D’s idea was to keep the robs

possible. |

Croven Bros,
The Fire Company has received
an invitation from the Albany
companies. Wil they go, did you
ask? Gentle reader why ask such
a question. Don’t you suppose
they know when they get enough,
We will say this muech, however
for our co npany: If the boys will
only tz tiey can beat any oumrn'
ny in Gergin. .Ot course Ala
bama is 01 o big a ‘boom for us
and we wi | leave them out of the
ring. i
EUFAULA TOURNAMENT.
We did not go, but the balance
of the boys did, and as they mount
ed the cars we heard, above the
checriug of the crowd, the voice of
the popular foreman- ‘
*lgo bat I returneth.” Kknow=
ug that there ‘was many
a slip twixt the cup and the lip’,
we scarcely expected it of the
boys, ‘but sure enough
they did come, and ahead of them’
came the bright and cheering mes
sage, by wire: “Everything is'
lovely and the goose hangs hizh,” |
and we have beaten—East Macon. |
“Fellow citizens” when those;
glad tidings came sniling over the |
wires and struck the buletin board |
at Frank Bethune's, several of,
our enthusiastic townsmen, l
(among the number were: Dr.
Farrar, Capt. Dillon, Marsballi
Hatcher and ¢ ‘apt. Kuigler), made |
the welkin ring. We noticed |
that there were a few inthusiasts, i
who, instead of making the wel
kin ring, made Frank Bethune's
lunzh counter howl,
A happier crowd was never be
fore scen on the streets of Dawson,
than when the news reached us that
our buys had beaten the Macon |
company. ** e did not care for
the nonor of defeating the States |
of Mabama and Americus, all we|
'desired was to down the Central |
| City with a fire department on the
western side of the river, After
the performance was over at Eu
faula, our foreman gathered his
men together. Three cheersgwere
given for the E B Young’s of Eu
faula, who made the first test in
22:83, the nozzie in. 13, and the
2nd test in 193, Americus was
svmpathized with, and Macon,
