Miller, of Atlanta, were in the city yester
day for the purpose of arranging the de
tails for the grand cavalry tournament of
the Governor’s Horse Guards tilt in Macon
cm the 29th.
The company reaches Macon on the
evening of the 28th and will he met by the
Macon military. On the morning of
the 29th they will parade
through the streets. and the
spectacle of witnessing fifty-dye hand
somely uniformed cavalrymen on horses
has not been seen on our streets in many
years.
The park, which our council tendered
them, will he the general rendezvous for
the crowds of excursionists that will come
in from all the roads. A band of music
will give all an opportunity of danc
ing during the morning.
In the afternoon the tilt will come ofl,
after which the prizes will be presented.
The prizes are very handsome. The first
prize is a beautiful* gold medal, presented
to the company as an annual prize by
Freeman & Crankshaw. The prize medal
has a smaller medal on the interior, which
each winner retains. Thi» medal was won
last summer bv Sergeant Robert L. Jones,
and he will puil for it again. In addition
to this the first trooper gets a magnificent
Georgia-made gold watch by the J. P. Ste
vens Company, valued at $150; also, will
have a beautiful jewel, presented by J. P.
Btevena & Co., with which he must crown
the qoten of the tournament on the

these prizes are Sergeants R. L. Jones,
Beattie, Youmans, Geo. Paine, Charlie
Warren. George Whitlock, Leonard James,
Tom Arnold. J. P. Trottle, Harry Hill,
although others may get there tirst.
Horseniauship and sabre exercise counts
more than the mere taking of the heads
and rings.
At night a grand ball will bo given tho
Guards under the auspices of the Thalian
Society of Macon.
AN UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR.
A Young Man Arrested on a Charge of
Embczslement.
* Officer Hendersqn yesterday arrested
Mr. Walter Hanney on a warrant sued out
by Mr. A. L. Butts, the coal dealer, charg
ing >oang Hanney with larceny after trust.
For some time past Mr. Butts ha3 sus
pected Mr. Hanney, whom he had era*
ployed as collector, out it was not until last
week that he took any pains to satisfy
himself of the truth of his suspicions. By
investigating, he found that Hanney had
collected several bills which he reported as
rendered, but not paid. The amount thus
lost foots up into the hundreds.
Mr. Butts spoke to Mr. Hanney about the
irregularity, and lie promised a full settle
ment on Saturday at 11 o’clock. Having
reason to lielievelthat young Hanney would
leave town, Mr. Butts ordered his arrest on
Friday night, whichwas quietly done at the
union depot by Lieutenant \\ ylie. lie
was taken to the barracks, where he was
confronted bv Mr. Butts. He freely ac
knowledged his shortcomings and pleaded
forfa few days grace. He was given until
Monday to make good
amount, and after a half
imprison aunt was released and the affair
hushed up as much ns po»slble.
Ycidordav he displayed such a cool in
difference us to returning the money, aim
it having reached Mr. Butts's * ars that lie
was lavishly spending money treating his
friends. Mr. Butts caused a warrant to be
issued from Justice Freeman's office and
placed in an officer’s hands to be served.
This was done, and he is now in jail,
Mr. Harm© is a young man, and came to
Macon about two years ago from New Or
leans. lie was higldy esteemed by all who
knew him, and it is supposed that his is
one of those inanv cases In which evil as
sociations figure so prominently and
bring so many young men to ruiti.
Homicide In Warrcnton.
About 8 o'clock on Tuesday evening the
usually quiet little town of Warren ton was
thrown into a whirl of excitement by the
announcement of a shooting affray which
bad just occurred, In which Willis Cody, a
negro boy of 17, was mortally wounded by
another negro named Jo»h RulT, aged 20.
A Warren county gentleman furnishes us
with the following particulars:
The shooting occurred at the corner on
Broad street, opposite the front entrance
to the cgurt house, and U supposed to
have resulted from an old grudgo l>ctween
the parties. When the fatal shot was fired
Cody cried out: “Oh, Josh, you’ve killed
me,” and fell. He was taken up by some
friends to be conveyed to his home, hut
died before reaching it. The ball entered
bis breast just above the left nipple and
ranged downward through the heart.
In his testimony before the coroner
jury fluff claimed that the deceased must
have been accidentally shot with his
* own pistol, and disclaimed any knowledge
of the cause of Ids death. 4 . .
The coroner’s jury returned a verdict that
the deceased came to his death from a
pistol shot fired by the hands of Josh.
Buff.
When the verdict was announced, Ruff
told the sheriff' be would Uke to make a
statement. Permission being grantee, he
said: "If you hang me or send me to the
penitentiary for this, you will punish an
innocent; man. I did not aboot Willie,
but I know who c i*l. I was intluenced by
other parties to tell the story I told here
before this jury.” , ,
Ruff was taken into custody by the
aheriff, and committed to jail to await
trial.
It is now known that the prisoner pro-
cured a pistol but a few hours before the
kffllBg. ,
PICKING PEAS.
turning a fast mail train on
the mam line, his- foot was caught in the
frog of the switch, from which the poor
fellow found it impossible to extricate it
before the train reached him. The cars
passed over him. breaking both legs. He
died on Sunday from the injuries received.
Captain Gillespie had a number rf friends
in Macon who will read the above with
sincere regret.
Robbery at the Park.
Some time during Monday the refresh
ment stand of Mr. Robert Waggenstein
broken open and robbed of a quanti
ty of confectionery nml cigars. Yesterday
morning Mr. Waggenstein discovered that
the house had again been broken open
during the night and more goods taken.
Yesterday afternoon several little black
scamps were arrested on suspicion, but
last night late the real burglar, a boy
named William Oliver was arrested by
Lieutenant Wood and officer Fennel, and
the greater part of the goods recovered.
The Market House.
Mr. P. T. Bertram is the builder and
owner of the new market house, and
the city is being congratulated on his being
the man. In addition to his being one of
our best mechanics, he is a public-spirited,
liberal citizen, even though he goes along
through the world quietly. He will pro
ceed at once to builu, and in council last
night Alderman Proudfit made the state
ment that the house would be completed
by the first of next November. This is
gratifying.
Death of Mr. Colbert.
Mr. John G. Colbert, Br., who died at his
home in Crawford county last Thursday,
was the father of Mrs. C. B. Ellis, of
Macon. He was 74 years old. and ranked
among the most prosperous and upright
citizens of that county. He was the father
of I)r. John G, Colbert and Mr. Wm, G.
Colbert, of Thomaston.
Opium Habit Cured.
Why will you use the poison when
you can l>e so easily cured? It w ill not
cost you but little more to bo treated
than to buy the drugs. Read the fol
lowing:
I used opium forty years and was
cured by Dr. W. H. Jones.
G. II. Si.appy,
Marshallville, Ga.
Write to me and I will give you the
names of parties in Macon and other
places whom I have cured.
