Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent for Franklin's Ammoniated Dissolved Done
and Franklin's Acid, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: There seems to have been a report started in this part of
the county that the FRANKLIN GUANO is not up to the standard, and
not as represented by you. As you have sold a great deal of the Guano,
and I having bought largely of it myself, in order to satisfy myself and
friends as to the quality of the Guano, I had a member of the State
Chemistry, General Thomas, of Atlanta, to come down and take a sam
ple of the Franklin Guano to analize. I received an answer a few days
ago, in which he states that the Guano is all right, in every respect up to
the standard, and contains the full amount of ingredients as branded on
the sacks. This will probably afford you a great deal of satisfaction, as
it will those who are using the Franklin Guano. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) R. T. JONES,

Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent, Waynesboro, Ga.
Boar Sir: Since writing to you last April about the FRANKLIN
GUANO, I will now state that I distributed the Franklin along side the
Good Luck and Turner Guano, all equal valuation, the latter having
been used by me in old ante-bellum days, and was then known to be as
good a guano as there was coming South. It cost me this year fifty dol
lars per ton, spot cash, at factory in Baltimore, and I have the assurance
from the maker that the Guano is now as good as ever, and up to the
old standard. Also the Good Luck is considered an A one Guano. My
crops have all received equal attention and work, and I never could dis
cover any difference on my crops where the different guanos were dis
tributed/ This proved to me that the Franklin is as good as any. I
surely shall use the Franklin again next year. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) " ROB’T. T. JONES.

to fifty tons next year. Yours very truly,

The great bicycle races come off
in Macon this week. Mr. John Pol
hill had accepted a challenge from
John S. Prince, the champion bicy
clist of the world, and the many
friends of Mr. John Polhill will he
pleased to learn from the following
account of the race taken from the
Macon Telegraph, of Tuesday, that
John won a complete triumph, and
is to-day the Southern champion:
The center of attraction yesterday
was the bicycle tournament that
came off at the parkin the after
noon. It attracted a large crowd,
many going down to witness the
interesting features that had been
advertised to take place.
John S. Prince, the champion bi
cyclist of America, and his malinger,
Mr. W. J. Morgan, the champion of
Canada, arrived in the city Sunday
night, for the purpose of participat
ing in the races. Their appearance
on the grounds yesterday was greet
ed with much enthusiasm.
It was a field day for the wheel
men. Apart from the regular pro
gramme, the presence of two such
noted champions was sufficient to
attract the crowd, and some of the
best speeding was rightfully expect
ed. In this the people were not
disappointed. It will lie some time
before another sucli exhibition will
be witnessed.
The bicycle track was not in the
best condition. It was sandy and
heavy, the wheels cutting deeply
into it. It had been rolled, how
ever, in the morning, and was in as
good a shape, as it could be gotten.
It proved the scene of some very
pretty riding.
The programme announced as tho
first event a half mile handicap
best two in three between John S.
Prince, tho champion of the world,
and John II. Polhill the champion
of Georgia. Polhill was given thir
ty yards. At 4 o’clock the bugle
sounded and the racers took their
positions. Mr. George T. Beeland,
a prominent member of the Macon
Bicycle Club, acted as time-keeper,
and Mr. 8. Weichsolbaum as scorer.
Prince mounted his machine thirty
yards to the right of the judges’
stand. He wore an attractive suit
of black and white trimmed with
red, a small national fiag girded his
waist, while from his breast swung
the championship medal with the
record 2:39 above it. Polhill ap
peared in close suit of blue gray and
black and wore also the numerous
medals lie has won. The machine
used by Prince was the “Spaulding,”
a racer weighing 28 pounds, with a
55-inch wheel. Polhill manipulated
a “Budge” racer weighing 23 pounds,
with a 53-inch wheel.
The start in the first heat was
slow, both Polhill and Prince mov
ing off sluggishly. The first quarter
was turned in 44 seconds, Polhill
leading. On the second Polhill was
still in the lead, and closed the first
half mile in 1:27 2-5, lowering the
Southern record of 1:35, held by
Frank II. Mudd, of Montgomery, 8
seconds. The second heat was a
repetition of the first, Polhill pass
ing the line amid deafening cheers,
with Prince following closely. The
record in this heat was the same as
the first. It was a grand victory for
the Macon champion.
The second event was a half mile
heat race, best two in three, be
tween W. J. Morgan, Canadian
champion, and Bismarck, Joe Buhl’s
noted fast trotter. Both heats were
won by Morgan, who scored a re
cord of 1:34 in the first and 1:80 in
the second. Morgan did some pret
ty speeding in this contest.
The third and last event of the
day was a three-mile handicap be
tween Prince and Morgan, The lat
ter was given a start of 200 yards.
The race was exciting throughout,
but was won at last by Prince, who
did some of liis best running, mak
ing the three miles in 9:29 2-5.
In the first race Prince claimed a
record of 1:2(), as the thirty yards
given Polhill is equivalent to five
seconds.
Speaking of Polhill, Morgan said
yesterday after the first race, “lie
is the fastest man wo have nie^in
the South by ten seconds, and wo
have met them all. lie has splen
did bottom, and is a most promising
amateur.”
The races will be resumed at the
park Friday afternoon, for which
time some good features have been
arranged.
The following is the result of
Friday’s great bicycle race in Ma
con, between J. S. Prince and J. IT.
Pplliill: Tho races were mile heats,
best two in three. Tho first heat
was won by Prince. A dispute
then arose in reference to distance
allowed Pollhill in the handicap;
Prince having agreed to give Pol
hill GO yards, and only allowed him
50, This caused Polhill to decline
to run him further. Finally, how
ever, he consented to go one mile,
in order to reduce tho Southern re
cord, which he did by 21 seconds,
and then left the track. Polhill
now has the Southern champion
ship for Li ’ii 1, and 5 miles, and
his friends naturally feel proud of
his success, and look with confi
dence to tho day, not fur distant,
when he will 1‘down” the world’s
champion. John on arriving in
the city, challenged W. J. Morgan,
Canada’s champion, for a 5 or It)
mile race, for $500 a side, llohas
thoroughly demonstated the fact
that he is a long distance man.—
There were several other very in
teresting races. Prof. Prince will
come to Augusta, and perhaps to
Waynesboro, when wo expect some
rare sport.

a general attraction.
York is dead. The citizens of this
county will long remember our old
colored friend, York. Many years
before the war he plied the trade of
masonry through this county and
sometimes beyond it, but rarely for
inhabitiveness peculiar to his negro
race,he preferred the surrounding of
his home in this time honored old
county. Not long ago Death, that
knocks at the door of ueasant and
king with equal step,knocked at the
door of York’s humble domicil, and
from thence our old colored friend
departed never to return again. Af
ter the war ended the negro race of
the South found itself occupying a
new place. Not so with York. He
never changed. His white friends
commended his services as they had
always done before,and lie has been
as much in their hands since “free
dom come out” (to use a common
expression among the freed ne
groes) as he had been before. Per
haps many who read this simple
notice of ids death will do so by tho
warm fireside built by the hands of
York, and long afterwards these
moments which ho unconsciously
erected to his own memory will
stand to keep liis memory green in
the hearts of his many friends, lie
stood by the while people that lie
had lived in peace and happiness
all his life among, until the last. He
voted with them and maintained
always an unrelenting contempt for
tho wiles of the carpet bagger and
scalawag and for those of his own
color who persisted in being mis
lead by those selfish wretches and
chronic thieves. His honesty it Is
said was never questioned and meet
ing lile in sunshine and shadow al
ways with a smile he peacefully
passed into tho shadowy valley
without reproach. lie deserves a
monument. Ttequiescat in pace.

—Miss Callio 1*. Johnston, sister
ot Col. 1*. I’. Johnston, of this city,
loft on Thursday morning for a visit
to friends in Macon, thence she will
go to Camilla to visit her brother,
Rev. Geo. S. Johnston, it was with
regret that the many friends of
Miss Johnston saw her go, especial
ly as her stay is likely to be pro
tracted,
All tho visitors from our city and
county ("and there have been many)
have returned from a visit to the
great exposition at New Orleans.
All agree that tho exposition is
grand, magnificent. Among those
whose return we have not noticed,
are Miss Minnie and Mr. Seal) Jones
Judge W. S. Godbee, Judge E. F.
Lawson, Misses Ramsdale, Burton
and Gray, Mr. Foster Reynolds and
Mr. G. Leslie McElmurray. All
those have returned since our last
issue.
Atnonf the many who have visit
ed the exposition from our city, sev
eral have used their intelligence,
and made their visit a source of
benefit as well as pleasure. Of these
Dr. Whitehead utilized the whole
facilities, (and, by-the-way did not
forget his friends at home,) and
Judge Lawson, who says he went
“to take in the whole business.” He
junketed over the whole city, ex
amined all the departments of the
exposition; sailed up and down the
great Mississippi river, and caught
a catfish in lake Ponchartrain. Ho
certainly had a visit of both pleas
ure and intelligence. But of all the
visitors of our city to the great ex
position, Judge Godbee seems to
have been the distingue. Upon his
arrival and registration at the most
prominent hotel in tho city of tho
Crescent, the seryants recognized
in his delicate features tho blood of
royalty, and obsequiously obeyed
even the jesturo of a finger of his
lily-colored hand. Wherever ho
went lie was attended by a con
course of “fair ladies and bravo
men.” Let him board the train, and
a throng of the elite of the world’s
nations attended him; unnotified
committees were appointed to at
tend him, and watch Ids movements,
among whom was a strong force of
detectives, who watched him with a
jealous care, determined that his
generous disposition should not bo
imposed upon. Wherever he went
ho was cheered by tho waiving of
handkerchiefs by tho ladies, encores
by the gentlemen. Let him board
a steamer, and admiring throngs
were there to do him honor, and
bands of music attended his foot
steps (in the distant rear). IIo
steamed down to tho mouth of tho
“Father of Waters,” visiting tho
“jetties” and made several impor
tant suggestions for improvements
which were eagerly sought for, and
will without doubt bo adopted by
the authorities of that important
enterprise. In tho aggregate, tho
judge’s visit was a triumphal inarch
—an ovation—and marks an era in
tho history of our country.
