Til Hi WEEKLY 1KLEGRAPH AND MESSENGER, FRIDAY, MA Y 0, THE CAVALRY TOURNAMENT. Ths Plans for the Governor's Horse Guards' Tournament Perfected. Capt. John MiUedge and Mr. John A. 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 grounds. The second trooper gets $75 in money, and crowns the first maid. The third trooper gets J50 in money, and crowns the second maid. The fourth trooj>er gets $25 in money and crowns the third maid. The troopers who are most likely to win 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.
