THE MACON WEEKLY TELEGRAPHi TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1686.-TWELVE PAGES.
AN UNLOOKED-FOR CREMATION.
An Incident that vu Told at the Union
Depot Yesterday.
Down at the anion depot yesterday morn
ing workmen were engaged in repairing the
Htepa leading down from the front entrance
to the depot proper.
The feet of thomiands had worn some of
the ateps to worthlessness. Many a brave
soldier had descended them to answer the
first bogle call, and many a mother and
wife had stood upon them to bid the soldier
good-bye. And after the wer his feet again
touched those Bteps. They had borne
many a precious burden, and conld they
hot speak conld tell of a thousand good-byes
spoken in sorrow, in anguish and in jest.
All this was probably passing through Mr.
John Knight's inind as he said to Major
Knapp: “I put those steps there thirty odd
years ago. Sly brother and myself built
this depot, and if you will examine it closely
yon will see that it is good work throughout.
“The min*wkobnilt that stair rail leading
np into the office was the first man ever
cremateil in the South, and perhaps the first
- in America. His name was Volney Pearce,and
v in addition to being a very fine workman was
a rank abolitionist. He was a Yankee and
hod been sent for just to do that particular
work. He bad not been in Maeon long be
fore his abolition ideas and utterances made
him very obnoxions to the people. They
bore with him for some time with patience,
and thus encouraged, he never lost nn
opportunity to say something about the
negroes being set free or to say harsh
things about the people of the South.
“One day, however, Pearce suddenly left
Macon, and it may imagined that he canght
a vague idea that it wouldn't be healthy to
remain. At any rate he went away. He
went to Birmingham in Alabama, and it
seems he commenced to talk just as he did
in Macon. When the first furnace was built,
it occurred to some of the miners and
settlers that a human body would stand
very little Bbow on the white-heated coals,
and they also concluded that Pearce would
make a good subject for the experiment.
Accordingly Pearce was gathered up one
night jnst after he had given utterance to
some of ilia abolition ideas, and taken to
the fnmace. The door was opened before
Pearce conld realize what was to be done
with him he was swung upon the hot coals.
Quick as thought tho door was closed and
the mon went quietly away. Next morn
ing when the door was opened, there upon
tho dying embera could be traced in white
the form of a man. There was nothing
done akont it, for Birmingham at that time
was on. infant town and the machinery of
law and order was not yet set in motion.”
THE CASE OF HENRY KREUTZ.
Mr. U. L. Hunter ot Mlllcdgevllle Explains
Ills Connection with the AfTsir.
Miu.jttxjEviLi.x, April 22.
Editou Teukhuph:—In yonr issno of the
21st it is stated in substance that a com
mittee of citizens of Milledgeville would
visit your city to meet Mr. Henry Kreutz,
who, having left the former city at the de
mand of its citrons, desired to return to
wind up his business, and that said com
mittee- would “act as a hoard of arbitra
tion," presumably b?tw?ep Mr. Krsntz and
lbs ritJjene of MtlicdgeriUe.
In yonr paper of this date It is further
stated that "Messrs. Walter Paine and It.
Ia Hunter, the committee from Milledge
ville who came over to hear Krentz'a side of
the story, completed their labors yesterday
and a paper will be prepared forpublioation.
It is understood that after having been con
vinced that Krentz did not use the offensive
language, as alleged, they will consent to
his return to Milledgeville, in order that he
vjnay close np his business."
I i>ea leave to state that Mr. Paine and
myself had !>0 authority to represent the
citizens of Mill6dgovliie as arbitrators or in
any other capacity. Hearing that Mr.
Krentz wished to return to this place to
dose op his bnsiness and wished to see
Borne of oar citizens to learn whether he
would be permitted to do ao peaceably, I will
ingly consented, in the interests of peace,
to go to Macon to let him understand, as
well as I could, the state of public feeling here
in that connection,' and I told
him that in my judgmont it
would be hazardous to do so at present
He expressed mnch regret for his acta in
connection with the negro procession on
tho day after the election saying he was
under the influence of liquor at that time,
and bitterly denied having used the offen
sive language in his bar-room on the night
of tha't day, with which ho was chargod.
He asserted that he canid prove his inno
cence and would do so in a paper he was
Jiaving prepared for the public. The un
dersigned deemed that he was entitled to
make the best defence the foots of tho case
would warrant, but neither has had nor
will have anything to do with the prepara
tion of the paper Ulnded to.
Y'our excellent paper tins a large circula
tion in this city and county and the writer
begs that yon will kindly publish this note,
in order that he may be pat straight before
your many readers in this section. Very
Respectfully, It. L. Hi'xtxb.

MR. SENEY’8 VISIT.
Ho Takes a Look Over tho City and Chats
About Railroad*.
Mr. George I. Seney and family arrived in
Macon at midnight Thursday night in & spe
cial car, but his preaence in the city was not
made known until yeuterd&y morning. He
came South for the purpose of attending
the recent Stovall-Pmnizy wedding in Ath
ene, and ho intimated to Dr. Bass at Wes
leyan that he might run over to Macon for
a day. He was accompanied by his wife
and two daughters, Misses Katie and Nel
lie, his married daughter, Mrs. Flummer,
and her little daughter “Madge.” After
breakfast the party were placed in two car
riages and driven over the city. Mr. Seney
noted the improvements made in the city
since his lost visit, a little more than a year
ago.
He was seen by a Telegraph man at the
College. He expressed himself as having
his heart not only in Macon but in Georgia.
He asked after the new and projected rail
roads th/oughout the State, and seemed to
be ut a loss to understand the Covington
and Macon railroad. He said what Macon
and this section of tho country wanted was
a direct route North. If the Covington
and Macon would pass through Athens and
connect with tbe Richmond and. Danville
at Gainesville, the want would be supplied.
As to the sale of the,East Tennessee, Vir
ginia and Georgia, ho said but little. Qe
left tbe impression, however, that
he would be among the purchasers
and that by a sale tbe road would be pnt in
the finest condition. It would lift a great
load from the expense account and place the
afTuirs in good shape. He spoke in the
highest terms of the Richmond and Dan
ville. He said its road-bed was equal to
that of the Erie road, And the equipment
was first class throughout By cutting off
the curve made by Atlanta, a road running
by Athens would be the direct and shortest
route North.
In the afternoon Mr. Seney and party
took another drive over the city, accom
panied by Dr. Bass. He will leave tbe city
this morning, and will spend Sunday in
Atlanta. '
Covington and Macon K.illroau.
The Covington and Macon Railroad 1* now graded
to Hillsboro with the exception of about a mile near
Round Oak.
CoL Frebel la in the city awaiting the arrival of
Ur. Macben, who will be here on Friday.
A cargo of rails was received in Savannah a few
days ago and one ehipment is expected daily. It
will be put off at Roberts' station on tbe Macon and
August* Railroad. When it i* received tracklaying
will proceed at once. This may be next week. The
hand* are ready, and the modern appliances for the
rapid laying of rails will be used.
The contract for the bridge acrosa the Ocmulgee
at Macon waa let to Grant, Wilkin* A Co. of Atlanta.
They will get the timber from some point tip the
river and float it down. Tbia will be used in the
construction of the false bridge, which Is built on
piles. On this the trains will run at first, and tbe
building of the iron bridge will not interfere with
the runniug of cars.
CoL Livingston is in Clinton attending to a suit
brought against the road by Mr. Green Robert*,
who is not satisfied with the appraisement of hi*
land and need as a right of way.
All along the line or road the people flock to eee
the hand* at work, many of whom never oaw a rail
road.

Tho Wrong Juror.
A rather singular thing was brought out in the
City Court yesterday. During the March term of
the court the case of the State v* Stripling, for
selling whisky to a minor, was taken up. The de
fendant demanded a Jury trial. Among the Jurors
drawn waa W. (1 Jones, and he desired to have W.
B. Jobson serve as a substitute. While Clerk Nis-
bet was busy with the lists, Jobson, who was un
known to the clerk, said he wonld serve for Jonc?.
The clerk asked Judge Harris if such was the agree
ment, and tbe Judge answered no. Jobson, how
ever, misunderstood affair*, and when Jones’s name
waa called answered to it.
Th. can want to trial and Stripling was convicted
and lined $300 and coate. Several other ceeee were
tried, and each time Jobson answered to the name
of Jonea. lie wee of the itupreeiduu that ee he we.
a eubetitute for Jones, he ahonld answer to Jonee'e
name. Id none of tho ceeee but that of Stripling
were there any convictions.
A few day. after tho trial it waa dlecoveted that
Jonea wee not on the Jury, and a motion wae made
for a new trial on the above ground. Tho motion
wee been} yeeterdey end Judge Karri. reserved hie
decision.

they cured him of inflammation of the kidneys when
everything else failed, and cured him of a severe
cold that threatened to run iuto pneumonia. Hon.
James \V. Huated writes that they cured his son of
chronic rheumatism and relieved him of serious
pulmonary troubles.
The Arteelan Well.
Tbe machinery for boring the artesian well it
the park was received yesterday. Mr. Clay, the
contractor, is also here and the machinery wilt he
put np to day.
Mayor Price haa selected a spot near the lake In
the half-mile track for the well. tVheu this well la
flnlabed It te probable that one will be rank In tbe
vicinity of the city halt.
The boring will be watched with no little interest

Some rather odd stories could be told by
the man who ties the knot, did he chooae
to give his thoughts tongue. II the fee is
$50 or more, the groom takes great pleasure
in personally transacting the bnsiness, bnt
is equally anxious in securing a substitute
when a smaller price is to be paid for tbe
nnion. In case he has no brother of his
own, the bride's relative is pressed into ser
vice, in which instance that lady is more or
less officious. At a rather stylish party
which occurred on Monroe street about
two months ago, the groom pnt a $20 gold
piece in the kidded hand of bis small broth
er-in-law, with directions for its transfer to
the parson, and hurriedly left the room.
The bride, hearing the conversation, suc
ceeded in detaining the juvenile, and hunt
ing np one of tbe $5 coins her mother had
given her for “traveling trifles," swapped
gold pieces and called nerself "just a hus
band and $15 ahead.” She changed her
mind very shortly as to the monetary gain,
for the first thing she beard as she emerged
from her room in her traveling salt was,

A SUNDAY CONVERSATION
The prime movers in two important rail
road enterprises were in Maeon yesterday.
Mr. E. C. Machen of the Covington and
Macon has been in town for several days
looking on at the work ot his road, and Mr.
A. B. Linderman of the Savannah, Dublin
and Western railroad was passing through
on his way to Atlanta.
Mr. Linderman says he will run a train
of cars from Macon to Savannah over his
line by the first day of October. Sir,
Machen says be will take a train to Coving
ton over his line by the first day of July.
Sixty-eight miles of the Ha vanned], Dub
lin and Western railroad bos been contracted
for, and twenty-eight miles of the road
from Dablin coming to Macon is ready for
tbe track. Mr. Linderman has the papers
for everything in the way of equipment,
and in his valise he carries one m>''.inn dol
lars in bonds, to be signed in Atlanta to
day. His Lonc’o i b juse is ready to place
tbe bonds at once. He is now looking for
an entrance into Macon. It is thought that
he will come in on tho Covington and Ma
con line and will cross the river on the same
bridge. He will be ready to join the Cor-
ing:on and Maeon August 1st. His engines
will be here long before that time.
The soundings have been made and a
rope stretched across tbe Ocmnlgce for the
bridge. Timber will soon be floated down
the river for that purpose.
Thc| TzxEORAru man having discovered
that tue Covington and Macon is tbe Rich
mond and Danville, asked Mr. Machen the
intersecting.point. He said that he was
not at liberty to say. Gainesville and other
points had signified a desire to have it, bnt
as yet the point had not been .determined
npon.
“The road stops here in Macon," said
Mr. Machen, “and I wonld be delighted to
go in with some Macon men and continue
on to Florida."
From what could he gathered from Mr.
Machen it appears that the Florida exten
sion is no part of the Riehmond and Dan
ville enterprise, though part of their inten
tion is to embrace it in the system.
In further conversation on other matters
with Mr. Machen, he said he was a citizen
of Macon. By looking in tbe city directory
of New York it will be seen that his place
of business is “55 Broadway, residence
Macon, Ga."
'My ambition,” said he, “is to have con-
troljof yonr park Jand beautify it. Art; is
doing nothing in it, and nature is doiDg
everything. It is worth thousands of dol
lars to the city if put in shape. I have no
interest in horses, and never owned a race
horse in my life, but I would fill the stables
down there with horses every winter. The
track is a fine one, and being of springy
soil, everything that is in a horse conld be
gotten out of him on it. Horsemen from
Kentucky wonld winter here, and their
presence is worth something. The water
is the finest in the country and the climate
superb."
“Another thing I want to do," continued
he, “and that is to drain the six hundred
acres of swamp land down below the city.
As it stands it is a positive harm. It is the
garbage ground on which is dnmped all tho
offul and refuse of the city. It is a bed of
malaria. Now, I will make tbe proposition
to the City Council Tuesday night to drain
it all for one-half. The city could then
divide it np in lots and sell at the rate of
Bix or seven hnndred dollars an acre. I
want a place for my bands, and I can make
that land as healthy a location ns aay.
THE COVINGTON AND MACON.
How it le Ifi-oceetllug—To tVhom It Delong*
—The Ralls, Ktc.
In a brief interview with Mr. E. C. Ma
chen of the Covington and Macon railroad
the following points were learned:
The Covington and Macon is being pushed
ahead, and is graded to Winfred, six miles
beyond Monticello. It will reach Covington
about June 1.
Tbe road will run through to a junction
with the Richmond and Danville. Tho
exact point of intersection haa not been de
termined.
Rails were shipped early in this month
und ore cn route between Savannali and
here. Jnst as soon they arrive track-laying
will begin at tbe junction, abont five miles
ont of Macon.
All equipments of every character have
been purchased for the Covington and Ma
con Railroad. All of the engines arc to be
delivered in Macon by tbe Baldwin Locomo
tive Works of Philadelphia July 1st. One
engine and ten flat cars for construction
work are cn ronte now and should reach
here next week. Ten thousand tons of (Oth
steel rails were bought of theBetUlehem Iron
Company, which will carry the road to the
Richmond and Danville Railroad. Tbe
Covington and Macon people will go on to
Florida if they see their way clear. Like
all other new enterprises projected through
a new and undeveloped country, railroad
encouragement proportional to benefits is
expected. If the road commends itself to
those who will necessarily be first and per
manent beneficiaries they will likely indi
cate it, and nothing sostimnlates tho efforts
of railroad promoters as a knowledge that
the people along the line feel that they not
only need but want it
lty combination of effort the people along
the line from here to Florida can make np
from small subscriptions a great aggregate]
that will not be burdensome to them and
will command tbe building of a through
ronte.
The Richmond and Danville Railroad
wants a portion of tho great and increasing
through travel to Florida, and with this
ronte built the tide from North to Sonth
wonld flow through Macon.
The local benefits to Macon will be too
apparent to every businesa man to need
mention.
Cars will be running over the road abont
the 1st of July.
MACON'S ARTESIAN WELL.
High Noon Wltnt'ftse* tin- Sinking of Ma
con's Arteelan WelL
Mr. Clay baa now everything in readiness
to sink the long-talked of arteelan well
Mayor Price selected a spot for the well
near the lake in the park.
At twelve o'clock Mr. Clay blew the whis
tle and proceeded to sink the drill. In the
presence ot the Mayor and several others
Mr. Clay started up tbe engine. The drill
engine entered the earth, steam was let on
and the boring of the artesian well waa
commenced. In fifteen minutes the drill
was eleven feet below the surface. In
twenty minntes it was sixteen feet, and
there it stopped to be resumed this morning.
"Tbe hardest work is done,” said Mr.
Clay; "when we get started the work is
better and easier,"
As tbe drill proceeded on its way to find
a subterranean stream of pure water the
bystanders plied the questions thick and
fast. Mr. Clay stood tbe test, however,
and gave replies to all. He thinks he will
strike water between four und six hnndred
feet, though he has no means of knowing.
He may go a thousand feet or even more. It
may take a week or it may take a month. At
any rate he will bore until water is reached.
The well and machinery is enclosed by a
fence to prevent a meddling and inquisitive
crowd from giving him trouble.
To-iuorrow Mr. Clay expects to go down
a considerable distance. The boring will
be watched with interne
