in the neighborhood of $35,000 and

the end.

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Mr. John Tin ley Loses His Left Arm by
Ha vine it Cacght in a Gin.
The sympathy of roanj’ friends is
extended to young Mr. John Tin ley,
tor the sad misfortune that befell
him last Tuesday at ilie Waynes
boro Oil Mill and Fertilizer Go’s
ginnery.
Mr. Tin ley had been employed
but very recently to work in the
mill, and had been on t dujy only
about two days, wheu by some un
fortunate movement about one ot
ihe gins ms left arm was caught in
the saws which were rapidly re
volving, and ihe arm was instantly
lacerated so badly that, it was im
possible to save ii. Before night,
after his father had arrived from
his home near Greens’ Cut, his arm
was amputated aboye the elbow,
and he was taken to the home of
his brother, Mr. Maurice Tinley, of
this city, where he now is. He
was prostrated by the shock from
the terrible wound, but recovered
sufficiently after the amputation to
be removed to his brother’s home.
We sincerely hope he will quickly
recover. Dr. Herrington as fisted by
Drs, Whitehead and Byne, per
formed the operation.
FATAL SHOOTING AFFRAY AT PERKINS
Piince Albert Phillips Shot aud Killed
Perry Chance Last Sunday Night.
Correspondence Citizen.
Perkins, Ga , Sept. 23—On last
Sunday night at the colored church
here, Prince Albert Phillips shot
and instantly killed Perry Chance.
Both colored. The circumstances
as your correspondent learns them
from two eye witnesses leading up
to the killing are about as follows:
It seems that both Phillips and
Chance have for some time past
been paying their respects to the
same au-ky damsel, and had on
several occasions previous to the
killing indulged in hot words as to
which oue of them hud the best
right to her favor.
Oa ttie night of the tragedy it
happened that young Phillips took
the girl to church, and it seems was
holding full sway. This of course,
enraged Chance who remarked to
bystanders that “he (Chance) was
looking for his death.” After the
church services ended, Phillips pro
ceeded to escort liis giri home, and
had proceeded some distance to
wards iter domicile when they were
overtaken by Chance aud two other
darkies, who proceeded to join the
party unbidden. Chance immedi-
nely engaged the girl In converse,
lion which so enraged Phillips who
remarked to Chance, “that he had
an engagement with the lady, and
ihlu’t want him to accompany
them.” Whereupon Chance said,
‘If you don’t like my actions, here
I am. you can get anything you
want—” at the same time making a
movement as if to draw a weapon,
(putting his hand to his hip pocket,)
when Phillips drew his revolver
and fired the faial shot.
Both of the participants of this
deplorable affair are members oi
good colored families, who have the
respect of all their white neighbors
and it is regretted that such a thing
-boutd have occurred in our usually
quiet village.

However, a teacher may take two

It was also decided to make an
immediate canvass of the commun
ity, according to the plan previous
ly followed, and secure the subscrip
tions necessary to supplement the
public sehooi fund received by the
Academy- It is urged that the
friends of the school and of educa
tion respond promptly and liberally
so that every child iu this commun
ity may be provided for and the
finances of the school be kept ia
good condition.
Education is e.3 cheap in Waynes
boro, as in any town in Georgia. In
order for it to be equal to the best
<>ur academy needs the hearty unit
ed support of every person in town.

of $3 00 matriculation fee for each

may not be ot Indian origin. It has
the appearance of being part of an

it is hard to say. as it is too large
to be part of something for personal
adornment. It. is well polished and
is the form of an el ipse broken at
a hole made near the center. It
was found out on the 5Iadden place

Room 324 Dyer Building, : : AUGUSTA. GEORGIA.
Or, to LOUIS CGKEN, Special Reyresentative.
Tha t’s a dea d issue, so
all the big dogs tell as and
what they say must un
doubtedly be true. Still we
can’t help from feeling sad
over the funeral of so val
ued Oj friend, for from our
earliest memory of money
silver and- that only has
been our constant and
faithful companion. Gold,
we have never known per
sonally, but we have read
that Capt. Kidd and his free
rovers had it in piles and
that Wall Street keeps it as
an “Open Sesame” to work
the govern ment bond vault
and that the national treas
ury now and then gets a
surplus on hand for what
use no one knows unless it
is to hold it for the rich.
Greenbacks or Bank
notes we have used in our
later life to jray debts with,
but the shining, glittering
silver is the thing we have
always used to buy bread,
to purchas our garments
and buy bantu Claus for
our little ones; the only uses
a poor man has for money.
What a aeath that
was! Then the poor man’s
help and aid died, and for
long years to come as pro ■
ducts become lower and
lower in price and money,
the medium of exchange,
gets higher and higher in
value then we all will look
back on our youthful times
and say “what good, old
tunes there were once.”
Silver is dead and
alas ! those who seemed to
love her most while living
are the first to turn their
backs and whisper words
of contempt over her last
resting place.
Here’s to your ashes
dear, departed dead ! and
may those who traitorously
assisted in slaying their
best friend reap the reward
all of the Brutu.
THE CASH CONCERN •
in passing the grave must
needs shed a few tears over
a faithful friend, but
we must put prices lower
and give the best for the
money for it (money) is now
a scarce article.
Read our quotations
and buy our stuff thus
hoarding your money.
