THE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER, FRIDAY, APB1L4,1884.
THE FOOLING YESTERDAY.
No doubt many of our readers expected
to find sandwiched in among our local
news yesterday some minute account of a
big fish, discovery of inastodonic bones or
murder of a big snaka. This is usual on
the opening day of the showery month,
and the absence of some sell of this kind
is regarded as a lack of enterprise on the
part of a daily paper.
Our reporter, bound by the custom of
having eome kind of a hoax for the day,
At Death** Door.
Rev. J. II, Richards, of South Haven.
Mich., gives under (he date of June 14th,
1882, the following account of what Com
pound Oxygen did for an old lady seventy
years old, who, a year ago was at death's
door:
•'Compound Oxygen has done a fine
work here in the person of an old lady
near seventy. She had a pulmonary at
tack. coughed incessantly and became
greatly reduced—iu fact, was completely
prostrated. The Physician* said that they
could do no more for hex, and her end mis

could endure life. Dot in two or three
months she was again at death'* door.

There was a muttering and a murmur

honiniy let the cat out ot the wallet and
thus threw oil on the troubled waters.
On Monday evening Sexton Clay found
at his store a summons to appear liefore
the recorder yesterday morning for viola
tion of section 1025 or the city code. Den
nis Keating, his clerk, was subpoenaed as
a witness. Mr. Clay, whose cemetery
management has been running along as
■mooth as glass lately, was dumbfounded.
He went iuto his private office, and for
half an hour privately and confidentially
communed with himself to think
What he could have done in
violation of such a section. Failing to
think up anything wrong, he sent for the
city code and soon saw that there was no
such section. Then he jumped into his
buggy and hunted up the recoreer. who
told him that such a section might he in
the new code just revised by Mr. N. E.
Harris. Mr. Clay had not thought of that,
and then he asked Judge Patterson what
he should do. The recorder could only
advise him to stand his trial and see what
it was.
But Mr. Clay was worried. Up to Chief
Wiley’s house he drove his horse, but the
Chief knew nothing of it. Down town to
Clerk Blue he came, and asked if the
signature to the summons was all right.
It was. Then up to the city hall he went
to see Lieutenant Wylie, who had left tiie
summons, but the Lieutenant was not
there. Up to Ills house he went, but the
Lieutenant had gone down town. Four
trips did he make to the city hall, and as
mad as a wet hen. He was conscious of
having violated no law, and felt that any
charge of that sort must have been brought
by malice, and then he took a notion to
find the man who reported him. All over
town he traveled until late at night,
when !t became absolutely necessary
forjudge cannon to tell him that the
morrow wu the first day of April. Those
who know Mr. Clay can very readily pic-
turehis features as the hoax gradually
dawned upon him. lie never fails to ap
preciate a joke even if he gets the worst
of it.
Among the best sold men yesterday was
Mr. J. H. Anderson, at A. B.^ Small’s, but
when he found Unit he hud been houxed.
and badly hoaxed at that, he gave in and
took it as good-naturedly as possible.
Lee Worsham, a fellow-clerk, found out
that Anderson was expecting a very im
portant package, so he went into Tinsley
Bros’. A Oo.'s store, just across the ulle;
from 8maU's store, snd telephoned, as i
coming from the post-otfice, that there
was a package for him there with 12 cents
due on it. Anderson lost no time in get
ting around to the office and asked for it,
but Walter Corbett, at the general delivery
window, caught on at once and told him
the trackage had probably been sent out to
J. If. Anderson, at Mercer University.
In a few minutes a boy, with a promise
of 15 cents, was on his way to Mercer with
Saw Mill Fires.
We learn from passengers on the after
noon train yesterday that two destructive
fires occurred along the line of the Macon
and Brunswick railroad on Monday night.
The first was Leitch's saw mill, twomiles
south of Chauncey. Loss $7,000. The other
fire was Robinson's mill, five miles this
side of Jesup. Loss $3,500. Neither mill
wasinsured.
The track near Robinson's mill wax
burned, and a delay of five hours eaused
the south bound passenger train of that
night.
—The friends of Mayor Felix Corput are
liking of presenting uis name to the peo
ple of Macon as a candidate for member
of the legislature. Mr. Corput would
make a good legislator, and he would be a
strong worker.
—Poplin lustres in 'grays and all the new
shades at 12*£ cents at The Empire Store,
Macon, Ga.—a rare bargain.
—Deputy Marshal T. D. Weld yesterday
brought fn Frank Bryant from Monroe
county, charged with retailing liquor with
out license. He was carried before Com
missioner Haskins and bound over in the
sum of $300.
-Dress ginghams at The Empire Store
Macon, Ga., at 10 cents; chnmbrays 12J4
cents; seersuckers 15 cents. It is conceded
that they have the prettiest stock of these
goods in the city.
—Ladies' colored bordered, hem
stitched handkerchiefs at 15 cents at The
Empire Store, Macon, Ga.
The little store of Mrs. Venable, near
the ohl armory property, was robbed on
Tuesday night. The thief entered the
store by raising a window, and stole a
juantitv of groceries. The police are on
track of the thief.
Black Goods.
The stock of black goods at The Empire
Store, Macon,Ga., is very complete. While
their lines of cashmeres, tamise and Hen
rietta cloths were never better, they would
call special attention to their stock of lace
buntings. Be sure to see them.
Forest Fires-
The train from Columbus due here yet*
terday afternoon at 5:30 did not arrive
until 0:30 last night. The delay was caused
by the burning of about fifty feet of track
seven miles below Butler. The woods were
on fire and swept across the track.
On the Southwestern roaiMlu* woods are
also on fire, and near Andersonville the
track was burned, causing a two-hours’
delay to the south-bound train yesterday
The fire is also raging between Macon and
a note to Mr. Anderson's namesake, asking
for the package. Thinking possibly there
might be some mistake, he went down to
the express office. W Idle be was gone the
boys in the store fixed up a telegram call
ing him to Atlanta at once. He returned
from the express office and found the boy.
who said Mr. Anderson, at -Mercer, did
not bavo the package. Then he read the
telegram, and, thinking he might
telegraph his friend that ho would
go up on the first train, ho started
out to reply to the telegram when be
caught Leo Worsham's eye. Then for the
first time ho thought of the day being
April 1st. and there was a general laugh
all roend.
To console him, the boys invited him In
to the drug store of Goouwyn A Small to
drink soda. He agreed, and when ho be
gan to drink found that bis soda was half
salt. It was a hard trial for 1dm, but he
went through it like a little man, and when
it was all over, enjoyed tlie joke as well as
anybody.
There were several other such hoaxes,
but the day passed off with everybody in
good humor.
Fort Valley.
From passengers on the Georgia road we
learn of the destruction by fire at Hhoais,
in Warren county, of the residence of N
H. Coleman. This, however, was caused
by the burning of a chimney. No insur
ance.
The fences and trees on the plantation
of Henry Bonner, near Brown's crossing
on that road, were also on !flre yesterday.
Handkerchiefs.
The ladies’ scalloped and hand-cmbrold-
ered, clear lawn handkerchiefs at The Em
pire Store, Macon, Ga., are the richest in
design ever brought to the city. Nowia
the time to secure pretty handkerchiefs.
Is the Day on Which the Great State
Fair Will Open.
We will have the fair!
This announcement will no doubt be re
ceived with a great deal of pleasure, since
we have not enjoyed an extra large crowd
since 1881. •
The executive committee of the State
Agricultural Society, composed of L. F.
Livingston, of Covington, president; E.
C. Grier, of Griswoldville, secretary; T. G.
Holt, of Macon, treasurer; George W.
Adams of Forsyth, It. J. I'owell of Barnes,
ville, J. II. Black of Americus, If. II. Ca
rey of LaGrange, W. B. Jones of Waynes-
boro, R. W. Anderson of Hawkinsville, M.
J. Hatcher and Jere Hollis, of Macon, met
iu the rooms over Hardeman & GiUson'a
warehouse yesterday morning, pursuant
to invitation adopted by the society in Sa
vannah.
They were met by the citizens’ commit
tee from Macon, composed of Messrs. Em
ory Wioship, VV. It. Singleton, Nathan
Solomon anil Jos. Da mien burg. This com
mittee reported that they had canvassed
the city, and presented subscription lists
with amounts subscribed, aggregating
$3,000, the bonus asked for by the society.
The committee stated that the numes on
the list were good business men of
Macon, and good for every dollar
subscribed, payment to be made in
fall. With such a basis on which to
work, it was decided by the committee
that the fair should be held, leaving the
time to be decided by the afternoon ses
sion.
The committee then proceeded to or
ganize. Mr. Marshal J. Hatcher was
made general superintendent, with Mr.
Jere Hollis as assistant.
The premium list was then taken up
and the organization of the departments
began, resulting in the following selection
of superintendents.
First department—Horses, mules and
jacks; J. II. Black, J. O. Waddell, assis
tant.
—Second department—Cattle, sheep and
swine, W. B. Jones.
Third department—Poultry and bees.
S. M. H. Byrd.
Fourth department—Field crops, J. L.
Fleming.
Fifth department—Horticulture,
chard.etc., J. C. McCall,
Sixth department—Home industry, R.
W. Anderson.
Seventh department—Ornamental needle
work. H. H. Carey.
Eighth department—Fine arts, II. J.,
Powell.
Ninth department—Tools and imple
ments, E. Heyser.
Tenth department—Manufactures, J. D.
Bovd.
Eleventh department—Machinery, A.
F. Rahn.
Twelth department—Merchants' display
J. H. Fannin.
Thirteenth department—Races, Pierce
Home.
In the afternoon Mayor Corput was in
vited to meet with the committee.
Whereupon the following resolution was
offered by Col. Hatcher and unanimously
adopted:
"Retolved. That the thanks of the State
Agricultural Society through this com
mittee are respectfully tendered to the citi
zens of Macon for their generous contribu
tions anil to the oftlgials and mayor of the
city for their kind offers to put the fair
grounds in order and poltco the same; that
we appreciate their efforts to make
the fair a success and we invite
their active support and co-operation both
as citizens and officials, to hold such a fair
as will reflect credit upon the society and
the city.”
The time of holding the fair was then
discussed.
The month of November was thought to
to be a good month because the exhibits
could be taken up and carried to
New Orleans. President Living
ston made the observation that
the moon would lie full on November 3d,
ami henre there would be moonlight
nights during the week.
Debate followed, in which the 3d of
November and 27th of October had advo
cates.
A motion was made by Mr. VT.fi. Jones
to commence on November 3d, which was
amended by Dr. H. H. Carey, making it
the 27th of October.
Mr. R. J. Powell wanted the date fixed
later. Heaaidthat in October the farm-
papers were maturing, that poultry
would be in a disheveled condition because
of moulting, and for various other reasons
he thought November would be a better
month.
Mr. Jones said it was entirely too warm

Jersey Man In Council.
Borne fifteen or twenty gentlemen of

breeding of Jersey cattle, held a meeting
yesterday afternoon in the ball ot the Hook

The Empire Store, Macon, Ua., has a
pretty line of new dress goods in all the
new shades at fifteen cents, and brocaded

a badly mangled leg. From what wo can
learn, the train itonpcd at McRae for wood.
On moving olT, Mr. Hattaway stood near
the track to wait until the cab came along
that lie might lamp on.
Unfortunately he stood on a sand hank,
and the sand gave way, currying his feet
under tho wheels. The left foot was
braised some, but llic right foot and ankle
was so badly crashed that it was
decided to amputale the leg as soon as he
was able to stand the operation.
He was taken to Mr. Jet! Johnson’
room near Balaton Hall, and Dr. lerguaon

Colored Laces.
The Empire Store, Macon, Ga., has just
received something new In the way of
colored laces. Beautiful in design and in
all colors and fidth*. they cau match a
dress of any dcscriptio
In October to transport stock, which was
one reason why a colder month should be
selected. He said further that In Novem
ber our own people would have had time
to get back from the springs and watering
places and rest awhile before entering
upon a six days’ sightseeing. Moreover,
in that month tho tide of travel from the
North would be turned into Florida, and
we would be able to catch a great many
people passing through, who would stop
in Macon for several da; *
fair.
Dr. Carey thought the weather in No
vember would be too cold. Last year
there was a killing frost on the 3d of No
vember. He thought the latter part of
October would be better.
Mr. George W. Adams recalled the first
fair held in the laboratory building in the
month of November, It wns very damp
and cold, and there was much suffering
and discomfort to the visitors.
Mayor Corput stated that November
was among the rongheit months of the
year in Macon, especially at the park. It
was situated on the banks of the river and
in the rainy season the ground kept very
damp. He favored October ns the
proper montli. The human family as well
as cattle must bo looked after, and lie
thought it would be better for the visitors
to go away with n good opinion of Macon
rather than abusing the fair and all con
nected with IL He referred with great
pride to the health of Macon.
The motion to open the fair on the 27th
of October was then put and carried.
The premium list was taken up by de
partments, seriatim. •

A Matter of Regret.
Captain Frank Hervey, who for some
time past has been the manager of the
Lanier House, severed yesterday his con
nection with the business. Those who
have been accustomed to the hospitality
he knows so well how to dispense, will re-
celve the announcement with regret. The
Captain, aa the public have discovered al
ready, U a thoroughbred, whose long ex
perience in the hotel busineis peculiarly
fitted him for the position he occupied. It
is not known what his movements or in

to remain with us. as the business could
ill-afford to lose blm.
