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 at hand.

There was a muttering and a murmur ing like unto the first symptoms of a Cin cinnati riot, followed by the forming oi a committee to petition Judge McManus, the ordinary, to postpone the election.

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 In October to transport stock, which was The street railroad war in Augusta still continues. “The combat deepens —on ye brave!"

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!

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.
