THE MACON WEEKLY TELEGRAPH: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1885.-TWELVE PAGES.
PROF. STEED’S FUNERAL.
Th© Service* at th© FI rut Baptist Church
—Resolutions, Etc.
The funeral service* of the late Professor E. A,
Steed, were conducted from the First Baptist Church.
Tuesday morning, loth Inst, at 11 o'clock.
It waa a solemn and impressive occasion, and at
tracted a large number of the frier ds and admirers
of the deceased. The church was well filled, and
the large audience remained attentive throughout
the entire exercises.
The platform was decorated with flowers, and the
casket, which rested in front of the pulpit, waa cov
ered with floral tributes. Behind the desk. Dr*. E.
W. Warren, J. G. Kyal*. J. J. Braatly, A. J. Battle,
of the Mercer faculty, and Dr. I. It. Branham, of
Monroe Female College, occupied seats.
The choir was competed of Mis* Jessie Hardeman
■cprano. Mis, Joe Wells alto, Mr. T. 8. Lowery
tenor and Mr. 8am Everett basso. The music ren
dered was very sweet and added greatly to the
effectiveness of the occasion.
To the left of the pulpit the Mercer students occu
pied seats, each wearing a badge of mourning.
They attended the services in a body, and upon
their arrival at the church formed an open column
through which the body waa conducted to Its rest
ing place in front of the pulpit.
The sad exercises were opened by a chant "Thy
Will be Done,” tonchingly rendered by the choir.
Dr. Battle then read tho twenty-third Psalm, which
waa followed by the hymn. "My Hope is Built on
Nothing Less.” read by Dr. Warren.
At the conclusion of the hymn Dr. Brantly offend
a prayer that was full of tender feeling. Dr. Bran
ham then delivered the funeral oration.
His remarks were based upon the passage of
scripture found in Numbers, twenty-third chapter
and tenth verse, last sentence—"Lei me die the
death of the righteous, and let my last oud be like
hla.” It wsa a splendid effort, and chaiued from
the start the thoughtful attention of the vast audi
ence. Beginning with the inquiry, "Who is tho
righteous man?” Dr. Branham proceeded to auswer
it in a logical and attractive manner. After defining
it satisfactorily, he next proceeded to describe
the death of such a man. He applied it
S 5efully to the occasion, and closed by
wing an accurate and pleasing portraiture
of the life and character of the deceased. There
waa not one who failed to recognize its faithful out
lines, and to shed a tear of regret that the original,
whom to know waa to love, had fallen in the prime
of his intellectual manhood and popularity. The
sermon was fully worthy of the occasion, and the
oloquent gentleman who delivered It.
"When It was concluded the choir sang very sweet
ly, "Safe in the arms uf Jesus,” and then the audi
ence dispersed to witness the conclusion of the ex-
ereieee at the grave. Dr. Ityals officiated. The pall
bearers were tile same aa were announced in yester
day’s Telkmuafh.
Professor Steed has passed away, but his life
and ita influence will remain. He waa a man of pa-
collar magnetism, and was cast in uncommon
mould. The hundreds of students over Georgia to-
dav, who sat once at his feet and drank in the es
sence of his teachings, will recognizo the force of
the remark and mourn the loss that deprives tliu
public of his usefulness. As one of the above the
reporter of these lines cannot refrain at this last
moment from twining a simple chaplet and placing
it tenderly, reverently upon the grave of one who
was once his preceptor and at all times his
friend. Time will deal gently with Professor Hteed's
memory, for he was taken all in all, a man after
nature's heart, full of tender virtue and love for his
fellow man.
The following resolutions speak for themselves.
They are worthy tributes and reflect the honest sen
timents of those who penned them:
KKsoLtmoxs or T1IE rccuLTT.
"The afflicting hand of God has been heavily laid
upon ns. On this 9th of November, 1885, Prof. E.
A. Bleed, our loved and honored colleague, in the
67th year of his age, and fourteenth of his connec
tion with Mercer University, fell asleep in Jesus.
The occasion Is a fitting one to give expression to
our high appreciation of his worth ana profound
grief for the loss we have sustained; therefore.
"Resolved, That daring many years of Intimate
association with him In personal and official rela
tions, we loved him for the circumspect Christian
deportment, integrity of character, purity of .mo
tive, and conscientious discharge of duty, for which
be waa uniformly distinguished. Candid, but cour
teous In manner, clear and accurate 10 judgment,
firm bnt not obstinate In opinion, he was an inval
uable counsellor, and greatly contributed to the
efficiency of the discipline and the successful man-
agemr nt of the Institution. In the class room bo
bad no superior as a profound and accurate scholar
and skillful teacher. He commanded tha esteem
and confidence of his pupils, and had the valuablo
bnt rare faculty of inspiring them with love for
what he taught. The impress left upon head and
heart of those under bis instruction disclosed the
band of a master. In some respects the loss to
University is irreparable.
"Besolved, That we will cherish a perpetual re
membrance of our lost collegian, and seek to
emulate his virtues—that aa some expression of
grief for the loss we have sustained, we will wear
the usual badge of mourning for thirty days.
"Besolved, That we tender our sincere condolence
to the family of our deceased brother, and pray the
God of Grace to keep them in this dark hour of trial
mad bereavement.
"Besolved, That these resolutions be entered
upon the permanent records of the University, and
that a copy of them lie furnished the family of the
deceased; also, that the Macon Tilkorath and the
Christian Index be requested to publish them.”
RESOLUTIONS OF THE STUD EXT*.
"Whereas, It has pleased our kind Heavenly
Father to remove our much loved professor, llev.
K. A. Sired, from the scene of his labors here on
earth to that rest which remainetb to the people of
God. Besolved,
"1. Our heart* are burdened with sorrow at
thia seemingly strange dispensation of Pro.ti u*.v.
Yet we bow in humble submission to the will of
Him who doeth all things wall.
"2. In the death of Professor Bleed, we have
lost a man of the most starling character. As he
was eminent for intellectual ability, so he was no
ted for the parity and sincerity of bis moral nature.
Ula whole Ilfs was a shining exemplification of
those rare virtues which characterise and adorn the
noblest and truest manhood.
3. The Dap Ut denomination of Georgia and
the cause of education In general, have sustained a
/mat loss, while that of Meroer University is simply
Inferable. His powers as % teacher were of the
bjgbtest order, whether directed to
the work of imparting instruction,
wnfore'ni disclpl'ne, or inciting and
arousing a laudable ambition in the minds
^4* his pupils. As an instructor wo think he was
-without a superior.
"4. He was wsa truly our friend. How we all
loved him! By his gentsl disposition, tender sym
pathy. and kindly interest in us, he has helped us
through nnmbenrsa difficulties, cheered us on amid
discouragements, throwing whole floods of sun
shine across our pathway. He has made the study
<«if Latin a thrilling delight to many to whom it was
ever before only a dull, wearisome task. Words
are inadequate to express the sorrow we feel.
We will fondly cherish the memory of his virtues,
strive to imitate bis noble example, and hopefully
look forward to meeting him again where parting
la no more.
"5. We sincerely sympathize with the bereaved
family, and commend them to Him who does not
willingly afflict or grieve the children of men.
"6. A copy of these resolutions shall be publish
ed in the Macon Telegraph and Christian Index,
and a copy furnished the family of the deceased.

SUNDAY WHISKY.
A Party of White -Men Engage in a How
In Pete Hannon's Bar-room.
A disgraceful row occurred In Pete Harmon’s bar
room, and the yard in its rear, yesterday at 12:30
o'clock.
This place is one of the infamous negro bar
rooms, that arc a shame aud disgrace to Macou.
It, like some others, is a resort for the negroes aud
white meti. who fill themselves with mean whisky.
Repeated efforts have Ix-cn made to punish the pro
prietor* of these miserable dens, aud if It bo true
that positive evidence of
now been obtained against
be made to suffer severely.
Yesterday morning, a party of men. white
aud black, were in Harmon's bar
room. They went in early, and, bad it not been
for the row, they would stayed late. It is not
known how many were in the bar-room, but it is
known that J. C. Clark a painter, Jack Murphy, bet
ter kuown aa Jack the sailor, H. B. Gannon, a boiler
maker, aud G. W, Gannon, 8. B. Gannon's sou, all
white, were
JX THE BACK YARD.
Among these men a fight occurred, during which
_ pistol was fired. This brought officer Bennett
Jones to the place, and ho arrested Clark. Officer*
McCafferty and Holmes arrested 8. B. Gannon aud
Murphy. The three roeu were taken to tho city
rison, and then officer Joues went in search of
oy aud G. W. Gannon. He found them at the
corner of Cherry aud Fifth streets and arrested
them.
Hoon after the arrests 8. B. Gannon was released
on $10 collateral, Clark was released on boud, aud
Murphy was released on a summons. Foy aud G.
W. Gannon were released and summoned to appear
as witnesses.
While at the city prison Clark made the following
statement:
"8. B. Gannon doesn't like me, but why, I don't
know. Haturday night 1 waa in Harmon’s
barroom, and so was Gannon. He aaid
several offensive things to me. but
1 paid no attention to him. This morning I went
into tho bar-room again. Gannon and a number
of others were there. Among the latter were Jack,
the sailor, G. W. Gannon. W. J. Foy, aud a young
white man 1 don't know. A good deal of whisky
was afloat, some of it in flasks and some of it in the
parties present. After awhile all those I have
mentioned weuQiuto the back yard. When 1
(HIT READY TC LEAVE
I looked for Jack, the sailor, but couldn't find him.
There is a four-room house in the rear of the back
yard, and thinking he might have gone into it, I
went to a gate on the right of the back yard and
started into the houso. I didn't find Jack, and
came back and started to go through a gate on the
left into the alley. Aa 1 passed 8. B. Gannon ho
said: "What are you looking for ? Do you want to
steal chickens Y* I stopped and said to him : "Look
here, my old friend, you seem not to like me. I've
stood yottr remarks as long as I intend to, and if
you don't let np on me 1 will hurt you.”
"I had hardly gotteu the words out of my mouth
when the young white man I did not know ran at
me and stmek me in the face with his fist and
kuockcd me down. He then jumped on mo. 1
thought the whole crowd was going to beat me, and
more to attract the attention of the police than any
thing else, 1 drew my pistol and fired it. 1 dldu't
shoot at anybody In the yard, but merely shot into
the air. Foy ran up and said: 'Clark, give me that
pistol.' 1 told him I'd do it if he would keep the
others from hurting me. He said that he'd do it.
and I gave him the pistol. 1 then got up. went out
of tho gate, and
WEXT TO BROWX'S HOTEL.
I had been at work painting the hotel, and aa I ex
pected to be arrested, 1 wanted to get Mr. Brown to
go on my bond, so that I needn't stay in prtsou.”
As to the last assertion, parties in the hotel said
that Clark rau through the hotel into the back yard
and hid under a pile of wood. Officer Jones said
that he arrested bttn in tho back yard.
Continuing his statement, Clark said:
"Tho young man that struck me ran off before
the iiollce arrived, a ad thus escaped arrest.”
All the other parties claimed not to know tho
an that struck Clark.
A Telkoeaph reporter aiked Clark If the parties
In the hack yard were gam oil..;;
"I’m not going to say,” ho replied. "I promised
Lleuteuant Wood that I'd toll him just what was
going on In the bar-room and back yard, and when
I get out of here, I’m Jgolng to keep my promise/'
"Did you buy any whisky from Hanucn?"
’Well, Jack the sailor had a Uask. 1 didn’t have
any.”
The reporter put similar questions to Jack the
sailor, but he declined to answer. He waa indig
nant at being confined in tho city prtsou. and
loudly announced his intention of suing the city
for false imprisonment
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
aa to the salo of whisky iu Harmon's bar-room on
Hunday waa obtained by Officer Jonea from a negro
woman. Bho said that she got drunk Haturday
night and yesterday morning wanted a drink to
steady her nerves. Hbe went to Harmon's bar
room and bought a drink, for which she paid ten
cents. Officer Joues summoned her to appear this
morning as a witness against Harmon, who will 1m
tried at recorder's court for aelliug whisky on Sun
day.
Harmon's clerks were In his 1»ar-mom at the time
the row occurred. Clark said that Hannon waa not
present. This statement may prove a loop hole
through which Hariuon will escape punishment.
The police officers who made the arrests yester
day are to be commended. They made them
promptly and without fuss or parade.
It is hoped that this rase will
result In teaching those negto bar
keepers who violate the laws against sell
ing whisky on Sunday and gambling that they are
amenable, and will bo punished ebon caught at
their nefarious practice*.
A Country Girl's Predicament.
Our country cousins were in town yesteaday to
to see the circus. One of tbeprettiot girls that ever
milked a cow or turned a boecake, came tripping
down Cotton avenue In tho morning aud presented
a picture of perfect health that would do to frame.
The cherry-colored ribbon on her big straw hat only
deepened tho rosy tint on her cheeks and made
more luscious her ruby lip*.
It was her first visit to town since peatime and
perhaps it was for this reason that she held so tight
ly the hand of the gawklsh young mau at her side.
But like all girls she wanted to be iu style. In spite
of her lack of pin money aud the disadvantages of
living out of town.
There were so many country girls in the city that
the TuLKmurii would not have noticed them in
there columns but for the misfortune that befel this
particular maiden. Ah stated, she came trippiug
down Cotton avenue. All at onco she gave a little
scream, and when a country girl screams you may be
sure that something dreadful has happened, be
cause sho doesn’t mind a mouse or a cow a* does
her city cousin. Her escort saw the pink flush
leave her cheeks and noted the andden and peculiar
movement of her off hand. He was somewhat
startled and was about to leave her and run fora
doctor wVn n bundle dropped mysteriously to the
sidewalk, just in front of Kahn’s store.
It waa a bundle of fodder!
Ther: was a snicker from the crowd and a loud
laugh from Mr. Kahn. The pale cheeks of the girl
were now burning with blushes as she pulled her
mystified sweetheart away from the scene. The
poor girl was mortified. She had lost her bustle!
Unable to buy the orthodox article, and unwill
ing to visit the city unless she could be fashion
able, she had, in her dilemma, utilized fodder, and
it must be confessed that for lightness and springi
ness, fodder is well-suited to the purpose when se
curely fastened.

A DDtfiisteil Cowboy,
At 1 o’clock last night a Telegraph reporter bad
occasion to take a walk down Mulberry street. In
front of Vannucki'a faloon, he had the pleasure of
witnessing a blood curdling act. taken right out of
the middle of the latest Wild Western Dime Novel
"with a big. big D.”
A visitor to the circus era* the chief performer.
He had been to the circus In the afternoon, and
also at night. He partook of the circus lemonade,
and also of the contents of a black botth*, which he
carried in his overcoat pocket. The tao combined
made his head swim and tangled his legs. In plalu
American language, "he waa drunk aa a b'iled owl.”
Tha cowboy act at tha circus took the inebriated
yifitoFa fancy, and after the night performance, he
obtained a piece of rope and proceeded to practice
Prof. Steed's Successor.
The prudential commltteo and tbe faculty of
Mercer University met yesterday to consider the
question of filling Prof. Steed’s vacancy. It was
decided that another professor will be elected at
the proper time. For the present the duties here
tofore pertaining to Prof. Steed’s chair will be di
vided among the present professors. Nothing will
be omitted, as the faculty have resolved to main
tain the detriment np to its full standard.
The question of adding another profesaor to the
scientific department is under consideration. This
question will be settled and diligent inquiry will be
made for a suitable person to fill the chair. The
prudential commltteo and faculty agree that the
full force of professors must be maintained and
that In no respect shall the standard of Mercer bo
owered.
Accident on the East Tennessee,
Saturday night at 10:30 o'clock a collision between
a passeugor train and a work train on the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad occurred at
Channcey.
The work train had taken the side-track for the
night. The switch was out of order, and when the
down passenger train came along it ran into the
work train, ^lotli engines were wrecked. James
Blair was engineer of the work train and P. Smith
of tho passenger.
Only one person was injured, Thomas Treadwell,
of Macon, lie is an engineer of the road, and was
going to Brunswick. His injuries weie slight.
The passenger train waa carried to Jcsup by an
engine belonging to Miller and Shearer, leaving
Channcey at 2:15 o'clock.
The Osier AVillow,
Elsewhere will be found Mr. I. C. Plant's adver
tisement offering Osier willow cuttings for sale. Mr.
Plant has fully demonstrated on his swamp farm,
near Macon, that thia valnablo willow grows luxu
riantly on the river bettom lauds. Ho also proves
that the raising of willoVr Is more profitable than
many other crops, requires but little attention and
is not affected in tho toast by seasons.

■in front of Vannucki'a saloon, there are two large
Iron dogs. Tho amateur cowlioy h»d discoverd
them a few minute* before the reoortcr arrived on
the scene, amt believing them to be alive, began to
I sling his lasso at first one and then the other. The
reporter stopped to ace the show.
••Whyn't yer hoi' abtillT” growled tho cowboy,I
throwing hi* lasso and misslug both dogs ten feet.
"I'm bos* co’boy 'n town, V don' >er fergit it. I
Hoi' ahtill, tnln’t, an’ I’ll Jerk yer buli’t head off yer
ahonl'ers.”
| He threw the lanso again, and by accident, slipped
|the noose over ths head of one of the dogs.
IDoray!” ke shouted, •*co’boy snatch’ ’em bal’ tha’
tlnn*. Come otTm there an' leinwe show yrr how
done.”
Ho gave tbe rope a vigorous jerk. The dog. of
course, didn't move, but the cowlioy did. lie jerked I
himself sprawling upon tho brick pavement, face
downward. The blood gushed from his nose, and
blue streaks of profanity from his mouth. I
When tho storm subsided, the cowboy sU^ered
to hi* feet, and remarked:
"Injins, by gub, lnjin»! Th* alien shoot fr’in be-
b»\ cum ’em.” • I
Ho gathered up hi* lasso and sought a resting I
[place upon the stone stoop of the Lanier House.
The City Court.
■on Monday and Tuesday Judge Harris showed
the value of the City Court aa it had never been ex
hibited before. Monday, D. R. Dow ning's case was
called. It will be remembered that he Is charged
with gambling with a minor. It Is alao generally
believed that he ta a pickpocket. Ula cane waa con-
tinned on account of the absence of witnesses.
]Mattie Aiken, charged with aaaanlt and battery,
aa tried and acquitted.
Tom Austin and Collin* Richard* were arraigned
>r carrying concealed weapons. Both were con
victed. Judge Harris set an example In their rase*
worthy of imitation, lie did not let them off with
fines, bat sent them to the chain-gang for twelve
months. The punishment wa*d$-i*-ned. and Judge
Harris deserves cn dit for inflicting it He haa Uk»-n
the right wav to break up a pernicious practice, and
|tbe young bucks white and black, would do well
to conceal their weapons effectually. If they desire
to escape a rireilo fade.
Tuesday, Henry Hutchins was tried for aa-ault I
and battery. It waa shown that he bad been guilty
of an aggravated case of wife-beating, and Judge
Harris proceeded to teach him a lnwon that he willl
not forget. The judge again refused to let an out
breaking criminal escape with a fine and sent him
to the chain-gang for eight months.
Judge Harris's course wtl soon cause much of the
petty crime committed in Macou to cease, whereat!
| all good citizens will rejoice.
Macon nnd the Hal I road Commission.
I Macou U indebted In the Railroad Commission]
for the lose of a valuable Improvement.
| Previous to the aiijiointwcnt «f the commission,
the Central railroad authorities determined to erect
a new passenger depot and new freight depots in I
th s City. The plans were prepa.vd.aud the depots
w« nld probably have been finished by this time hs$l
It not been for tbe depressing effect which the com
mission's caetlroo laws had upon the road's bust-
Had the plana been executed. Macon would now
have ihm most magnificent depots in the South 111
was intended lo erect a commodious tod perfectly
arranged passenger depot at the frx* of Mnlheny
street, and then to have built freight depots which
would have extended from a point near the passen
ger depotto the present union passing
corner of Fourth and Mam streets.
As long as the Railroad Commission remains in
existence, there U no probability that the proposed
depot* Will t* built _
