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. a month as heretofore, instead of $2.50 as announced in the catalogue However, a teacher may take two or more pupils from the same fam ily at the rate of $2 50 each. 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. Each patron subscribing shali he entitled to send oue child for each $5 00, by paying in addition the sum of $3 00 matriculation fee for each . hiid entered.

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.
