IMF lioululie A SHARP TRICK. Macon Banks Paying Fifty Dollars Each to Accommodate Strangers. On Wednesday night a young man regis tered at Brown's Hotel from Chicago. Another young man registered from Kan sas City. They were stranger* to each other, apparently, and to the city in fact* The hotel was crowded and they were asked to room together. They agreed, but before going to bed one of them asked Mr. Brown when the banks opened next morn ing. We leave the young men at the hotel while we see what was done at the banks yesterday. About half past 11 o’clock two young men entered the Exchange Bank and waited their turn. When it came, one of them asked Mr. Cobb, the teller, if he could give him two two-and- a-balf gold pieces. Certainly, and the gold anything. Some of the negroes who were looked upon as the best and most peace able in ihe county, have joined Clark’s forces, and have quit work and arc now waiting for the big gathering at Sanders- ville. A number of farm hands have struck for two dollars per day. and are in sulting in their demands. One farmer, having ten hands, reports that all but two have left him. The negroes llock by the hundred to bear Clark, and he has a big fol lowing in Baldwin and other coun ties. lie is described as being of medium height, mulatto, with black moustache. He was in Milledgeville two days while a thorough search for him uein* uimlc. He has made many friends among the ig norant. who harbor him. If he is in Georgia he will certainly be caught. A SAMPLE SPEECH. w What Clark, the Insurrectionist, Is Saying pieces were* brought up. [The stranger I to the Negroes. In ' ’ * * “ - handed over a one hundred dollar silver cirtificate. which the well trained eye of Mr. Cobb saw at a glance was genuine. He handed over the gold pieces and ninety-five dollars in currency and took the certificate. “Now, would you be kind enough to give me a lifty-dollar bill for this change; His so bulky.” The spirit of accommodation rules high among Macon bank men, and Mr. Cobb agreed. He went to the vault and got out a lifty-dollar bill and I anded it to the stranger who put down llftyr dollars of the change. Just as Mr. Cobb finished count ing it the stranger quickly placed the fifty* dollar bill on the fifty dollars in change and said: “If it’s all the same to you, sir, would jrou jdease give me back the hundred-dol- that have also been traced to the “nephew of his uncle.” Mr. Tilden is a man that can be relied on to “ante up” in certain cases, although he allowed Abe Hewitt to spend a hundred thousand dollars ir. the other campaign without so much as “thankee” in return for it; and Hewitt is somewhat lukewarm in the present boom, for that very satisfactory reason.

The two young men walked out and while they were closing tbe front door there was a rumor of a suspicion in & far comer if Mr. Cobb’s mind that there might possibly be some mistake in the transaction, but the rush of business dispelled the rumor. About 12 o'clock two young men entered the First National Bank,and the reader will here duplicate the scene that transpired at the Exchange Bank, only substituting Mr. W. W. Wnglev, the cashier, for Mr. Cobh, and with this addition: As soon os stranger No. 1 received his one hundred dollar bill back, stranger No. 2 stepped up and asked change for a ten dollar bill, which was given. This was done to aid in the confusion of the cashier and to divert attention from the previous transaction. After the departure of the young men, the same rumor that rambled momentarily through Mr. Cobb’s mind, found lodgment in Mr. Wrigley’s mind, but he lmrriedlv ran over his cash and thought he was all right. A few minutes after 12 two young men entered the Central Georgia Bank, and the reader will substitute Maj. T. O. Chestney, the cashier, for Messrs. Wrigley and Cobb in the same scene. When the young men left, Major Chestney scratched his head and instead of a rumor the cold, freezing fact was fixed in his mind that there was something wrong. Where it waa or how it was, he didn't then exactly know. He ran over his caah and was of the dnion that he was loser in the sum of ty dollars. He telephoned to the Ex change Bank and waa told that the young men went there and got change in the same manner for the one hundred dollar bill. The First National Bank responded ditto. Then Major Chestney was certain that he had been victimized. Lieutenant Wylie was notified, and as is usual in such cases, he did not allow the gi uas to grow under liis number eights. He .searched every hole and corner and finally found out that the two young men mentioned in the opening of this article, had returned to the hotel about half-past 12 and asked for dinner. On being told that dinner was not ready, they asked for a lunch and paid their bill in two-dollar-and- We are furnished by Mr. J. II. Andrews, cf Jones county, with a report of a speech made on tl.e night of the 19th at County LineChurch, in Jone9 county, by the ne* gro Clark, for whom the police are look ing: Gentlemen, this is F. H. Clark, from Louisville, Ky. I have come before you to-night to form a labor society. You need a laboring reform society, and yon have got to have oue. I am one of the thirteen. There is twelve more that will follow in pairs of two each. I have been sent out by your Governor and by the United States to reform you. What are you getting per day or month or year for your labor. Some of you say forty, fifty and seventy-five cents per day. Gentle men, do you know the meaning of a labor ing reform society. I’ll tell you just what it means. It means that you shall stop working for nothing for “Mars” John. Farm hands’ wages shall be raised to $2 for men; boys fifteen veare old $1.50, and women $1.25 per day, washerwomen $1 per dozen, garments, big, little, in the evening, the lieutenant discovered that they had boarded Henry Calhoun’s hack and were driven to the old Macon and Brunswick deport. On going out there Itpe men offered the hackman $5 to be taken to Reid’s station on the other side of the river. This the hackman couldn’t do, and one of them got out and walked down the road, while the other was let out on the Southwestern road. This is the last seen of them by the hackman. At the depot last night the cashiers were scanning the features of everybody in the depot. There were no young men at the depot, however, answering to the descrip tion. It is certain now that the men have f bnne out of the city. They made a clean 150 by their day’s work. ] The amusing part of the transaction was the fun made of Maj. Cliestnev by the other cashiers who thought themselves secure. They run him pretty heavily un til they balanced up cash for the day, and then they went to the Major to console with him. I □ As a rule our bank men are* equal to any emergency end are a match for the many sharp tricks employed by sharpers | |but in this instance they acknowledge I that they were well beaten. Of course the banks lose none of this money, the cash iers always making good any shortage that may occur. 1 The two men are described as fellows both neatly dressed; one weighing about 150 pounds, five feet six inches high, small sandy mustache, fair complexion, quick in speech and action. The same description answers the other one, with the exception that he was not so tall. uva^n. ftuwuviiw, Dig, iilUC, eat or small, tbe price shall remain the thesame. What are you working for? Simply nothing. You have got thia to stop, anil if I can’t stop you one way, I will another. We have got plenty of troops and artillery to back ns up for our rights, and we will have them— yes we are going to have our rights if we have to wade in blood waist deep. I know you fellows know how to use a gun. If you don't it won't take you long to learn. There is a large amount of money in our hands for distribution. Gen. Grant sent us (HO,000) forty thousand dollars. We raised a($2S,000) twenty-five thousand in Aufcista, twenty-five thousand in Atlanta and twenty thousand ih Savannah, Macon fifteen thousand. And we have got the United States to bock us in this move. Georgia is the meanest and lowest down State in the Union to the colored race. Yon are just as good os the white man, and if anything better, i know you have more honesty. I am as good as any white man that ever made a track on top oi this earth, and so are you. We have got to be more united before we can get our rights. Tbe money is in this country and we must have it for our labor. Then you can have fine horsea and buggies to ride in and fine houses to live in—in other words be boss some yourselves. I want you all to meet Rev. W. J. White, from Augusta, and Col. Peck, a colored lawyer from Louisville, Ky., at this church Saturday night. You can then join this society. "I know there is notja colored Democrat in this house to-night, hut let me tell you something. If I know of any colored man in this State to cast a Democratic ticket we will put him in the chain-gang for nine ty-nine years.” Question by Mr. Andrews—“By what an thority,” etc. Answer—“Onr authority is vested in our "Yon know what that means, and don’t rou forget it.

Tooter Williams had a bad eye and several kings when the Rev. Mr. Thankful Smith opened the first jack pot at the regular meeting of the Thompson Street Poker Club, Saturday- evening. Mr. Gus Thompson saw that a powerful brew of mischief was at hand, and prudently lnid down two pair, while Mr. Cyanide Whiffles, who had a pair of eights and very little horse sense, came in. “I rise dat two dollahs," said Mr. Williams quietly, hut with truculence of intent. “Yo’ 's gittin’ too brash,” rejoined the Rev. Mr. Smith testily. ‘‘Efyo’ ’s de Vandyhilk of dis pality, jess—jess stack ’em up. I rise yo’ six dollahs.” Mr. Williams considered for a mo ment, during which time he thought fully examined the cards which with great foresight he had previously pinned to the leg of the table. “I calls,” lie said at length. “Gimme two cyards.” Mr. Whiffles fled. The Rev. Mr. Smith dealt Mr. Wil liams two cards, and conscientiously helped himself to the last ten spot remaining in the pack. He then hanged the honored wallet on the table and said: “ ’Leven dollahs.” “Icalls yo’,” said Mr. Williams, se cretly unpinning the hidden hand, and counting out the money. The Rev. Mr. Smith put the pot into his pocket. “Wha—whadjer doin’ ?” gasped Mr. Williams, aghast at this unparliamcu- 7, < ‘^ nd o ? 0l l cr ,".‘.?* w Shafting. Pulleys and Hangers.
