The Augusta quarantine.
Office Williams, of the Augusta
quarantine, on the »ught train of the
Central, is keeping his weather eye
open for all persons from the sus
pected districts. Sunday morning
he put a lady, with two small chil
dren off here at 4 22 a. m. The lady
was from some point in Alabama
en route to Augusta. Mr. FYed. C.
Young kindly cared for them dur
ing their stay in Wayuesboro. She
was allowed to go on to Augusta on
the 4 o’clock train Sunday evening.
Tuesday morning a Mrs. Tyler,
with several children, and a young
lady, were put off here. They were
from Brunswick, but left that
stricken city at the first alarm, and
were in Macon for sometime. They
were on their way to Windsor, S. C.
The quarantine authorities allowed
them to pass through Augusta, and
they left Waynesboro on the 10.22
train.
Y. M. C. A. Columbian Entertainment.
On Friday night, 25th ult., while
The Citizen force was quietly at
work and not dreaming of angel
visits, which seldom ever illumine
the somber precinct of the “devil,”
in came a spirit bearing a message
with ice cream and cake from the
Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Y. M. C. A.
The entertainment given by the
Auxiliary on that evening was
recherche and very interesting. Fts
theme was the discovery of Ameri
ca by Columbus, and all that was
said and sung had a taste of Colum
bus—even the anachronisms. But
when the cream, cakes and other
dainties were reached, it becomes
a matter of sorrow that Columbus
in his day and time had nothing
like it, and he eked out his life, died
and worms eat him without ever
discovering ice cream and Burke
county sponge cake.
Will the Y. M. C. A. Auxiliary ac
cept the thanks of its friend, The
Citizen, and wishes that it may
live long'to entertain and do good.
—Scherer nas undoubtedly the
finest cigars in the city. Try them.
that were quite numerous in the
city. The elms stood their ground
well, but yielded limbs, leaves and
twigs in great numbers, effectually
littering the ground everywhere.
The exposed pine trees fared badly
but the forest’s trees in dense woods
were little disturbed, considering
the tremendous velocity of the wind
which could rrot have been less than
one hundred miles an hour when
the storm was at its climax. Its
duration was much shorter than
the great storm of 1 SSI, which oc
curred about this season of the y^ar,
but it was far more violent and did
unparalleled damage. One thous
and lives at least has been the sacri
fice.
The signal service gave ample
warning to the ships about to put
to sea, and perhaps many were
saved from going to the bottom of
the raging waters. Yet it is impos
sible to warn sufficiently against
such power, when shipping and
houses can be torn from their moor
ings and bases and driven to pieces
Tybee was ravaged by the storm of
1881, but in spite of all warning
there were no safe houses on the
island where wind and water reach
ed. The railroad running across
the island is an example of what
the water can do when a northeast
storm lashes it into fury and drives
it down the island, instead of send
ing it across east to west against
the sand doons.
In this section crops have been
badly damaged. The cotton crop
seems to have been premature and
was opened far in advance of the
season. All the open bolls was
stripped of the white treasure and
the lint washed and beat into the
earth. If not gathered at once it
will ruin, if not already ruined, with
sprouting seed and mildew. The
tall anti best stalks were laid flat
and will suffer great damage in the
maturing of its valuable top crop.
Wherever the storm raged—and its
swath was at least two hundred
miles wide on land—the crop will
be cut off one-fourth, on< third and
half in different places.
Misfortune comes never single,
but in battalions—so they say—yet
only a small part of the south has
suffered in the destruction of cotton
The corn was not injured and the
fodder had been gathered. So, with
a good currency from a democratic
congress, good price for cotton
which will follow, we shall have
good times. Don’t despair, any
body.
Storm Happer
In Waynesboro the storm raged
fearfully. Some say the wind blew
one hundred miles an hour. It
hardly reached 'that velocity, or
houses would have gone under. A
great deal of fencing was destroyed
and the debris of trees have not dis
appeared yet, notwithstanding a
large force has been at work all the
week. As an evidence of the amount
of timber destroyed, twelve cords of
wood was piled on one square after
it was cut. The smokestack at the
oil mill was blown down. The Ty
bee special, due here at 9.50 p. m.,
I#issed here about 4 a. m. It
delayed between Savannah
Millen by fallen trees.
In the country we hear of
asters from various parts of
county. Out on Capt. Randolph
Ridgely’s place, in the 70th district,
the old dwelling house was occu
pied by Mr. W. H. Flalfleld. He and
his wife made a narrow escape from
instant death. In the midst of the
furious hurricane the heavy chim
ney was blown down and fell
through on the ceiling. The ceiling
gave way but broke the force of the
heavy weight of brick that would
have crushed Mr. Hatfield and his
wife to death at once. He was bad
ly bruised but Mrs. Hatfield escaped
with little injury. The bedstead on
which they were sleeping was
broken down.
A tenant house was blown down
on Dr. C. E. Ward’s place.
In the G4th district, on Hon. Alex.
Lively’s farm, a tenant’s stable was
felled and a mule killed. The house
of Mr. Fayette Murrow was unroof
ed but no one was injured. Mr.
Robt. Chandler’s engine house was
demolished by the w’ind and parts
of his steam engine were broken.
In the 65th district, we hear of
several mishaps in the way of un
roofed houses. Mr. Wm. Pace, on
the old “Scales place,” hart part of
his barn blown down, and Paul Mil
ler, on the “Gresham place,” had his
stable blown down and a mule kill
ed.

the
Col. Wadley’s Dinner.
Col. W. O. Wadley, of Rogers, had
his friends down to his annual din
ner Thursday, which has gotten to
be a kind of re-union. To say that
it was a success in wasting a lot of
good English. The rain came, but
that made uo difference in the
spread which was just as fine as
ever. There was no political sig
nificance about it, for the colonel
can entertain his friends on the
other side, if he is a democrat with
out- a flaw.
About two hundred plates were
set, and Col. Joe Warren, of Savan
nah, graced one of them with the
suavite in modo for which he is dis
tinguished. There were citizens
from across the Ogeechee, and gave
us Emanuel ideas about farming,
and what the late storm did for the
crops already made.
Waynesboro had its contingent
present which ably represented
what our city is capable of sustain
ing at a dinner like this and par
ticularly what she can do with a
dish of hash even in the presence of
Joe Warren, of Savannah.
Let us remark in passing that our
old friend. Middleton Thorn’s, soft
Italian hand was seen and felt in its
artistic work at the ’cue hole.
The good will established will
bear fruit for years to come, and
may Col. Wadley live long to enjoy
the appreciation of his friends.

Plenty of rain and wind to last
until next year. The creeks are full
of water, and the roads are full of
trees.
| Col. J. P. Brinson has been quite
ill with fever for several days, but
we are glad to be able to report
that he is improving.
Misses Rosa Moore and Cassie
Johnston, of Waynesboro, are visit
ing Mrs. J. T. Reeves, and you bet
they make things lively wherever
they go.
The cattle are dying of murrain
near the village. Mr. Ransom Brin
son has lost several, and we hear of
several others who have lost fine
milk cows.
After the storm was over a beau
tiful carrier pigeon stopped at Col
J. T. Reeves’ for a few hours, and
after having been watered and fed
by Mamie Lou Bell, went on its
way.
There was a happy gathering at
the home of Mr. Homer Barefield
one evening last week, in honor or
the # Misses Thrift, of Augusta.—
Every one had a good time. Miss
Rena Thrift introduced a new game
called “Traveling to Jerusalem,”
which was much enjoyed by those
present.
The protracted meeting held at
the Methodist church here was
blessed by seven additions to the
membership. Brother Stallings was
assisted by Brother Branch, of Guy
ton, and we never Iislened to a
more profound and polished speak
er than he is. The house was crowd
ed at every service, and all were
much edified at his sermons.
Dr. H. B. McMaster, and his broth
er Dave, who is an M. D. also, were
with us during the great storm.
Neither of these gentlemen appear
ed to be the least frightened, but re
ally made us all feel like no danger
could come while they were so near J
Dr. Dave McMaster had his india
rubber coat blown off, but he was
equal to the occasion, and put it
together with adhesive plaster and
a hot flat iron.
An Appreciated Compliment.
What the Lieut.-Cok Levy, of the
First Georgia Battalion says of the
B. L. 1. The “Burke Light Infantry
March” to take its place in the mus
ic portfolio:
Augusta, Ga., Aug. 18,1893
Capt. H. B. McMaster, Waynes
boro, Ga.,—My Dear Captain: Your
kind letter with enclosures receiv
ed. I think you are acting very
wisely in calling off the drills, and
still wiser in having so pleasant a
manner of keeping the boys togeth
er—the change will be beneficial as
well as interesting. Our armory
here is nearing completion, and
doubt if its equal can be found
the south. It was Indeed a compli
ment Prof. Wallace has paid to your
command, but they certainly tie
serve all praise that can be bestow
ed. You can well be proud of your
command. It is always with pride
that I speak of them as being a part
of the First Battalion. I will look
forward with pleasure in receiving
a copy of the “Burke Light Infantry
March,” and when my family re
turns to the city, will get my daugh
ter to learn it. With kindest re
gards and highest esteem.
Yours very truly,
I. C. Levy.

RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEMISE OF DR.
EDWARD A PERKINS.
31ember of Screven Lodge, No. 248, F. A. 31.
and 3Iillen Chapter, No. 17, K. A. 31.
The messenger of death has once
more visited Screven Lodge, No.
248, F. A. M., and Millen Chapter,
No. 17, R. A. M., taking from us au
old and honored member.
Dr. Edward A. Perkins was born
near Millen in Burke county. Join
ed our lodge in October, 1871, our
Chapter at its organization, July
24th, I8S9, and since then until re
cent illness prevented, has been one
of Masonry’s most zealous support
ers, one of Milieu’s most valuable
citizens, and one of the most self-
sacrificing men known to this com
munity.
“O death! where is thy sting? O
gra\/e! where is thy victory?” ’Tis
true, thou canst take the mortal
habitation of our brother, but his
spirit thou canst not have, for the
God who gave it has taken it back
again. His memory, adorned as it
is with kind attentions to the wants
of suffering humanity, thou canst
not have, for it is indellibly en
graved on the hearts of nis surviv
ing brothers and friends, where it
will long remain a perfect example
of man’s duty to man.
Whereas, Our beloved brother was
taken from us on July 22d, 1893, and
w’as laid away with Masonic honors
at Perkin’s Junction July 23d, 1S93.
Be it resolved:
1st. That the removal of so kind
and useful a brother from our midst
has cast a cloud over our horizon,
caused grief in our hearts and
thrown ou our shoulders many of
the cares and responsibilities so
long and ably born by him.
2d. That the hall of Screven
Lodge, No. 248, and Millen Chapter,
No. 17, be draped with mourning lor
sixty days and the members wear
the usual badge of sorrow.
3d. That we extend to the widow
and orphans of our departed broth
er the gentlest tokens of sympathy
and the strongest evidence of our
interest in their comfort and wel
fare.
4th. That a copy of these resolu
tions be inscribed on a page of our
minutes, a copy sent tor publication
to the Millen Herald, Waynesboro
True Citizen and the Sylvania
Telephone, and that we furnish a
copy to the family of our deceased
brother as an evidence that his vir
tues are recorded.
