THE NARROW CAUCE.
Where the Survey Runs—Interview With
Mr. W. H. Wells.
On Saturday last the wagon containing
the surveying corps for the Macon and
Florida Air-Line railroad and their equip
ments rolled into the city. The boys had
been gone just alxty days, during which
time they had traveled over four hundred
and fifty miles Qf country and surveyed a
line 300 miles long. The first forty miles of
this road is through a rough, ridgy
country and very difficult to handle. The
main line, 212 miles long, was surveyed in
thirty-four working days, which
an average of about six and a quarter
miles a day. If a quicker survey has ever
been made for a line equally aa long, we
have not heard of it. After the first forty
miles were paat { the remaining 172 miles
were surveyed in twenty days, being an
average of more than eight and a half
miles per day.
Meeting with Mr. W. II. Wells, the en
gineer in charge, a Telegraph reporter
asked for a description of the line.
“The line follows the Southwestern rail-
roal to the seventh mile post; diverging to
the left at this point, it passes a half mile
east of York and about a itfile west of
Feagin. and two and a half east of Hous
ton factonr to Wilson, the former county
site of Houston. From Wilson the lin C
runs confluence of Limestone and
Indian creeks, thence up the east side of
the former, to the dividing ridge, having
left Hainesville a mile anu a half to the
cast. Continuing south, the linn posses
within a mile of Spoonville, straight to a
point two and a half miles east of Vienna,
on the main dividing ridge
between the Octnulgee and Flint rivers,
and turning a little to the
southwest, the line runs straight along the
ridge to Tifton. on the Urn ns wick and Al
bany railroad, and thence south through
Alton to Valdosta, thence In a direct line
through Jasper in Hamilton county, Fla.,
to Lake City, crossing the Sewanee river at
White Sulphur Springs."
THE BANK SCAMPS.
How the Stolen Money was Discovered by
n Dropped Remark.
Since our Macon banks were visited by
the sharpers, everj tiling in conm. ction with
the two men who operated in Augusta, will
be read with interest. In our telegrams of
yesterday a brief account of the restoration
of the money was given; but fVom the
Chronicle, of yesterday, we get the follow
ing details: 141 . ,
Among the passengers on bonrdthe train
going to Allendale Saturday afternoon was
Rev. Dr. Dow, a well known Presbyterian
minister of Carolina. He was returning to
his charge for his Sunday's work ami, as t
happened, was seated near the men. who
talked more or less confidentially to each
other. During a stop of the train, Mr.
Dow, who was not paying especial atten
tion to his neighbors, overheard a remark*
It had no importan e, hut lie happened to
remember it. “Remember, nov., 1*28, sec
ond street from the depot.” The numbers
somehow seemed to stick, and so soon as
Mr. Dow heard of the robbery and of the
arrest, the figures, which tingled in his
ears, seemed to burn in his brain.
Well, Mr. Dow communicated the fact
and figures to Conductor Jenkins, who
reached Augusta on his return trip Sun-
day afternoon, when the latter gentleman,
through Lieutenant Twiggs put Lieutenont
Geo. M. Hood keenly upon the track.
Lieutenant Hood has been prominently
engaged In the scent since Saturday—in
fact, still is; he was one of the Allendale
posse and is now busily engaged rounding
off the record. Lieutenant Hood is good
at figures and skillful in ferreting—and
with the 928 clue he commenced work
Sunday afternoon. “Two streets from de
pot" "Walker street is one. and perhaps
Telfair is number two. We shall see."
Thus with himself communing. Lieu
tenant Hood visited Telfair street where
resides Miss 8allie Sims.
Yes. a stranger bad been in her board
ing house on Saturday. He was unwell at
the time; she had purchased at his in
stance a bottle of blackberry brandy. Lt.
Hood did not make any statement nor did
the woman seem to have any comniunica-

5 ran a line from Quitman north
through Brooks and Colquitt, intersecting
the first line in Berrien county, a distance
of forty miles. Also a line from near
Spoonville,through Perry to the Kchecon
neebndge on tl»e Southwestern railroad.”
"How much further is it to Lake City
from Macon, via Quitman, than by way of
Valdosta?"
"About five miles.'
"Wbbfare the comparative tneritsof
the two lines?"
“The Valdosta line is, as stated, a little
shorter, and it could be more economically
constructed. The Quitman line, however,
runs through a country which is upon an
average much better, for while tue two
counties, Lowndes and Brooks, arc proba
bly of equal fertility, the line from Val
dosta to Lake City will run through a long
stretch of worthless saw palmetto, which
can be avoided by the route from Quit
man."
"What is the character of the entire
liue ?"
"Briefly, it is through a heavily timbered
and fine agricultural reg'on."
"What are the chances for assistance
along the lines?"
"Thai is out of my department, but
judging from our reception and the enthu
siasm manifested, I should say that the
people everywhere will render liberal as
sistance. We had no trouble in securing l
right-of-way, and the timber necessary for
bridging, ties, etc."
"Which, In your opinion, will be chosen,
the Valdosta or the Quitnmn line?"
"That is a matter ior the company to de
cide. 1 will submit the surveys ami,es
timates, and the road and two cities will
have to look after the balance. One thing,
though, you may depend upon, the strug
gle between the two places will be lively,
Valdosta will do her best, and Quitman
will try to equal her offer, and pay the
difference In the cost beside."
"How about Perry and Vienna?'
"It will cost but little to divert the line
so os to strike Vienna. As to Perry, my
work Is not yet sufficiently advanced to
form a comparative estimate."
Is Consumptlon.Curnble.
An annual death-rate of nearly 100,000
by Consumption in the United States gives
so far as the medical profession is con
cerned,a most emphatic and disheartening
negative to this question. But under the
new Vitalizing treatment of Dn, Starkey
& Palen, of 1109 Girard street, Philadel
phia, quite aaemphatic an affirmative can
be declared. This treatment has inaugu
rated a new era in the healing art. We
are speaking within the limit* of facta
when we aay that during the past thirteen
years In thousands of cases the progress
of consumption has been arrested by its
use. and hundreds of lives saved. 1 n many
instances where it seemed that the
patient could not survive more than a few
days or a few weeks, the vital forces have
rallied, and there has been a slow, but'surc
return to a better and more comfortable
health. If you wish to know all about
tbU remarkable treatment write Drs. Star-
key A Palen, and they will send you such
documentarjrevidenceas will enable you
to judge its real value.

INTO THE TRESTLE
Drop Three Cars, and Yet no Lives Were
Lost.
An accident occurred to the train from
Augusta on the Georgia railroad, due
hem yesterday morning at OtiS, The
heavy rains had washed out the culvert
under the track at Fishing creek, about
■even milsa this side Milledgcville. When
Engineer Thomas looked tt it, the track
had the appearance of bring all right and
he ventured on. Jnet as his engine struck
it be saw one of the benches turn and he
knew that the place was weak. In a sec
ond be gave his engine steam and the
ponderous iron bone leaped forward,
jumping over it, but a
guano car. the haggaye car and the second-
class car went down about flfteen feet into
the wreck.
The jar caused the engine to be thrown
forward, and Mr. Thomas received a cut
• ti the head, and that was about all the
injuries received by any one on tbe train.
The accident occirred about 4:30 o'clock
yesterday morning, and a full force of
hands were put to work as soon as po-si
