THE MACOH TELEGRAPH: WEDNESDAY HORNING. NOVEMBER 14, 1894. THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE And an early love is generally formed for one’s home—particularly when it is neatly and elegantly furnished. Even the workingman’s home can be made luxuriously attractive nowadays. If people only knew how cheaply this can be done, there would be far more comfortable homes and less unpleas- . antness. We have prices now so low that we offer to furnish a workingman’s house throughout for a sum of money that, ten years ago, would not even furnish a parlor. We do not mean with poor rickety furniture, but with good, strong, sound, reliable articles that combine an elegant appearance with luxurious comfort. An inspection before you buy elsewhere will save you money.

The boose did not even switch ills cum In re sponse, and simply allowed hla head to bo raised when the old man pulled on the lines, and lowered it when the lines were loosened. About this time another negro with a handsaw In hie hand came along ood aske dtlie old darkey what was the matter with his hors*. “Hit am lea his way er dob*'," was the patient answer.

By this time a good sized crowd, tnclpnlly negroes and small while ..ays Ui tho neighborhood, had gathered about the horse, and suggestions as to how to make him go were rained on ‘.he old darky thick and fast, but while he listened at them all. he unld not a word.

GOOD GOVERNMENT CLUB Leading Citizens Are Organized to Fat Aldermamc Candidates in the Field. THREE MEETINGS RAVE BEEN HELD AH Friend* of Good GomnmMi IUn Boca Invited to Become Members of tho t>|nb—Third Mooting Was Hold Lost Night. Much comment ha* been made of late on the lack of interest being mani fested la tho approaching oidcrmonlc election, but h now seems that more interest has been token than appeared on the surface, and tha-t a'strong un dercurrent ot feeling has been increas ing In voUytte for some time. This feel- lug bus cu.mlnated in tho organization of a club known a* the "Good Gov ernment Club," which held its thin, meeting nt 'the club's rooms In the Capital Bank building last night. The club has already it very Ta?Ee membership, and it to expected 'Ll root!

As one of Ihe members atld yesterday; We don’t propose to put forward meu solely because of A heir opposition to the liquor -traffic, or who are fapatlcs on certain subjects. That is not our inten tion ot all. We want moral melt, it ti true, but we want big men, and liberal men—(men with brains and of Influence lu whom tihe people hnve confidence.' Air. Colder Willingham, the president of the club, said the club was not formed In the Interest of any man or set ot men, but for tho sole purpose at giving Macon guod government. "W> wuitt Just such men os Mr.. Otrllng spoke of." said he.

Her* Husband Made Many Friends in 'Macon. The following account of the death of Mrs. A. B. Youngson,- the wife of the Assistant Grand Chief of the Brother hood ot Locomotive Engineers, la taken from one of the leading railway papers. Mr. Youngson was here during the rail- way engineers’ strike on the Central and made a great many friends, who will read with genuine regret the news of bis deep bereavement: “Clara Louisa, wif© bf A. B. Younyson, assistant grand chief of the Brothrehood ot Locomotive Engineers, died at the Cam ily residence. 1070 Water street, this «*ty, at 7:30 o'clock Sunday evening, November 4 Mrs. Youngson was a’daughfer of Will- torn Taylor, deceased, a former business man of this city. She was bom in Metd- ville, and had she lived until n'U Janu ary would have been 44 years of age. She was married in December, 1ST?, and leaves as her immediate family her husband, one son and two daughters. Other liv ing relatives are her brother, William Taylor of Cleveland, and two listen* Mrs. Frank Rouechc and Mrs. John Beiire, Jr., of this cUy. . ^ “Mrs. Youngsons' was one of those beautiful home lives which help to make the world better. Her devotion to her home, her husband end her children was of % character to make its inflntnco fc’t in the entire large circle of her acquaint ances, and her death will be mourned by all who knew her. Her Illness, marked by intense suffering, covered a period of some eleven months, and yet through It all she was patient and uncomDlalning. meekly bowing to the -divine will which, as a faithful member of the First M. E. church of this city, had been the becaon atar of her whole life. During the last few weeks of her illness her husband was in almost constant attendance at hjcr bcdaldo. Receiving word that the end was near, her brother William Taylor and his wife arrived.from Cleveland on train 10 Sunday evening, thus completing the sacred circle which surrounded tho bed of the sufTerer when her eyes cloOfl in the last earthly sleep. “The funeral will be held at the be reaved home at I o'clock p. m. Wednes day. The Interment, Uf a later hour, will be private.” • A DAMAGING BLAZE. Fire Destroys E. S. Smith * Brother’s Stock of Goods. At B:30 o'clock yesterday morning Are was discovered In the fencyg rocery store of E. 8. Smith A Bro. In the Dannenbcrg building on Cherry street, second doer from Cotton avenue. When discovered the aflmes had gained considerable headway. The firemen at No. 2 engine house near by were notified and In a few minutes two line of hos were Iafd and water turned on. A gen- eral alarm was then tprned in and the entire department responded. The flames were stubborn, however, and tho dense volume of smoko that rolled from the store and the entire building made It dif ficult work for the firemen to get at the source of the fire, but at last the chemical tanks were discharged on the flames and In a short while they were fmbdued. Almost the entire stock of goods of Smith A Bro. was destroyed cither by fire, heat or water, and the building was also damaged to the extent of several hundred dollars, principally by smoke. • Smith * Bro.’s stock was valued at be tween $2,000 and 2,500, which was Insured for $1,600. The origin of the fire Is not known, but there are strong grounds tor believ ing ft was tho work of an incendiary. This theory Is given strength by 2£t. Jan sen, who was passing through the alley at 4 o’clock and saw, the rear window of the store open and a^Ddght light burning near the window. Mr -Jpn?cn thought the windows were left open thorough care lessness In closing the night before and paid tittle attention to It. When ^the fire men arrived they round the windows open, but the gas was not burning. It is reported that hot ashes were found In the boxing around the elevator ropes that could only have been put there from the second or than! story of the building, but whether this was the cause of the fire or not ls not known. The rooms of tho Mertopolltan Club on tht second floor and the Georgia-Alabama Business College on the third oor were also damaged, as was the stock of Good- wyn’a drug store. MADE A NASSIGNMENT. Charles H. Soldmon, the Well Known Jeweler, Goes to the Wall. A deed of assignment of Mr. Charles H. Solomon, tho well known Jeweler, was filed in the superior court yesterday naming Mr. D. M. Nell&an as Assignee. The failure of Mr. Solomon did not be come generally known, but the few who learned it wero greatly surprised, as the house has always been regarded as one of the best patronized and most conserv ative In the city. The failure is not one to cause alarm, however, as Mr. Solo mon’s assets are about $30,000 and his lia bilities only about $12,000. The Exchange Bank la te largest creditor, the amount ue being $8,100, which is preferred. Tho remainder of Mr. Solomon’s indebtedness is due In smali amounts to foreign credi tors. Mr. Solomon and Assignee Nelllgan are both confident that none will love a cent by the failure and that Mr. Solomon wili soon be able to resume business. UNITED STATES COURT. B. F. Edwards was tried in “tht United States court yesterday on the charge of Illicit distilling,. On account of-errors In the Indictment and the further Set that the charge was not fully sustained.Judge Speer Instructed the JurjKto acquit Ed wards. Col. John R. L.
