As the remit of joking, a negro nam ed Richard Glawson is at the Macon Hospital seriously cut. Richard and another negro named Thurman Toy lor wore eating aonre Ice cream at the little store of Pet Floyd, on the ‘MUlcdgcvillo road. Just be yond the city line In East Macon, yes terday afternoon. The two men were “cracking Jokes" with each other, and this wound up In a wordy dispute. Then It was that Thurman plunged his knife Into the abdomen of Richard, in flicting what Is considered by the phy sicians* at the hospital as a serious wound. The cut man wns placed in a wagon und carried to the hospital. The father of Richard, who is a drayman of the city, said last night that ho tried three physicians, asking them to attend his son, hut that none of them would respond to the call. He then put his sou !r. a wagon and brought him to the west aide of the river and carried him to the hospital himself. Ho says he will have a war rant aworn out for Thurman thlc morn ing. •In the meantime Thurman la at large. The last the father of the cut man saw of Thurman was when he was coming over with Jtlchard. Thurman was with his father and engaged in ani mated conversation and It la suppos ed that the conversation was in refer ence to Thurman getting nwr TO TALK OVER TRANSFER SHED CITY AND COMPANY ANXIOUS TO GET A TRANSFER STATION BUILT FOR THE EAST MA- CON PATRONS. This afternoon at 5 o'clock there Is to be another meeting of the street committee and the street railway of-, flclals to talk over the plans for the proposed transfer station at the Inter section of Mulberry and Fourth streets, and It Is probable that some under standing will be reached whereby the work on the structure will b/;gln at once. At a previous meeting the plans drawn by the city engineer were dis cussed. There was some objection to those plana on the part of the railway . company, and It was agreed that the company should draw such plans as would best meet their own views, and they were to have been ready to sub mit to the street committee last Thurs day, hut the architect did not havo them ready. Then the meeting was set for this afternoon. The patrons of the street railway company are destroys that something ho done In tills mntter. They havo stood in the hot sun for several months and In the rain for sevcrdl winters, hoping every day and every night that the city and the company would get together and do something to give them a sholter. no matter what kind of a» helter so It kept the sun and rain off. But there has alwaya been some delay. As the plans of the company will be ready, and the street committee, as well as the company, want to end tho matter. It is qulto probable that this afternoon’s conference will give the East Macon patrons of the line some thing to b thankful for and to rejoice over. » 4 4 444444++-M~4+++>++«M- OCTOBER ALWAYS A BUSY MONTH With us, and we mean to make this the record breaker.
