Byron, July 11.—A gentleman of onr
town has been missing his young tur
keys and chickens recently, and he de
cided to poison one and place it where
they are accustomed to roost, and next

To Stop a Chole»a-l«f*ct#d Ship.
A revenue cutter has been in onr

and with active work soon extinguished
the flames.
Crops in this section are very good,
but we are beginning to need rain, and
without it we will suffer. The oat and
wheat crop are harvested and stowed
away and found to be short, but what
there is of it is fine.
Death of a Good Man.
D.vwsos, July 10.—Dawson lost at
10 o’clock Thursday morning, one of
her best and most prominent citizens,
Mr. Moses H. Baldwin, Sr.
For several months he has been
great sufferer, and when the wheels of
life stopped it was a release to a weary
spirit. He died at the ripe age of
seventy-one years.
In early life he was a citizen of your
county, and for long years he has been
a resident of this section—one of the
first settlers of Dawson. His life was
a busy and useful one, and during that
life he filled many trusts of responsi
bility, and was found faithful in them
all.

Fokt Valley, July 10.—Mrs. Ann
J. Miller, an old and highly respected
lady, was buried yesterday evening at
Oak Lawn Cemetery.
One of tbe saddest deaths we have
had in a long time was that of Mr. W.
H. Houser, who died at his father's res
idence, about seven miles of this place,
last night at half-past 13 o'clock. His
disease was said to have been pluro-
pneumonia. His wife died about three
months ago from the effects of a burn.
Mr. Houser leaves two little orphan
children who have the deepest sympa
thies of this entire section. His burial
will take place in Perry to-morrow at
12 o’clock. All friends desiring to at
tend can go down on the Perry passen
ger which leaves this place at 11
o’clock a. m.
HILLING IN MORGAN.
Mr. Cal Cordon Shot Dead by a Bar-
K«« p.r Nam.a Crawford.
Yesterday, meagre news reached
Athens of a killing that happened on
Tuesday evening last near High Shoals,
just over the Morgan line. It seems
that for some time there had been bad
blood between Mr. Cal Gordon and a
man named Crawford, who owns a bar
room about two miles from tbe factory,
and on the day of the killing both par
ties met at the Shoals, and were re
turning home when the difficulty was
renewed that culminated in Crawford
drawing a pistol and shooting Gordon
through the head, killing him instant
ly. Oor informant does not even know
whether or not Crawfqrd has been ar
rested, but says there is considerable
excitement over the matter in the
neighborhood.—Athene Banner.

IN ATLANTA.
Some of our boys said all they could
see in Atlanta on the glorious fourth
were houses and negroes.—Ellijay Cou
rier.
The big excursion trains on tho
Fourth were crowded with negroes.
Three hundred and five cheap tickets
were sold at the Atlanta depot by Mr.
Ramey.—Sewnan Uerald.
Saturday morning early the whole
face of the earth around the depot was
a solid mass of surging negroes waiting
for ”de acussion.” With no seats or
water, these people packed themselves
cholera-infected port. Tlio suspected
vessel was sighted yesterday, and all
her crew are reported to be in excellent
health. She will bo taken to Sapelo
Island.—Bruntwick Brtc:c.

Late yesterday afternoon when Mr.
Shepperton, one of tho salesmen of
Pescock's clothing manufactory, went
to bis home on lower Jackson street
he found that hla little child bad been

place, on last Thursday, lie was
abont seventy-eight years old. His

community goes out to the stricken

Hrwa Came A’ded a Young Couple to
Have a Wedding.
Mr. Thomas Christmas and Miss
Ophelia Murray, two young hearts of
near this place, became so closely
linked together by the unbounded
chords of love that tney resolved, some
time ago, to share each other’s destiny
through life for better or worse, but as
it met the rigid disapproval of her
father, and he having gone to Ordinary
Hargrove and officially forbidden him
to issue license, etc., they were at
quite a loss to know how to secure the
end of their idol of happiness and
reach the true regions of wedlock. At
length last Friday evening an opportu
nity offered itself. Bo taking a horse
and buggy and making double quick
speed, they eloped to Hawklnsvillo,
married, returned and are now In pur
suit of that long-looked for happiness.

A DCNCEROUS HOLE.
Man Is Saved from Drowning Wh'ls
Sinaloa tne Last Time.
Mr. Geo. J. Willis had a very nar
row escape from being drowned at Me
~ nta'a millpond on Tuesday. Itwai
pected that the pond would bo drawn
on on Tuesday, and several gentlemen
left Butler in the morning for a seining
expedition. On arriving Messrs. Wil
lis, Hudson, Gostin and others entered
the pond with their seine. When ont
In the pond some distance, Mr. Willis
suddenly stepped into a hole where the
water was considerably over his head.
Being unable to swim he had a renr
narrow escape from being drowned.
Mr. Hudson did all he could to save
Mr. Willis, but seeing that both were
likely to be drowned he released his
bold upon the drowning man, and
twice he sank. Other gentlemen be
ing near at hand seized hold of Mr.
Willis as he waa in tbe act of sinking
his third and last time, and he was
safely rescued by being placed in a
bateau.—Butler Uerald.
into these cars like sardines in a box.
and suffered through a long ride
in order to see the wonderful
sights Atlanta had advertised, but
failed to show. There is
never a fourth of July that passes
but one or more lives sre sacrificed to
the greed of the railroads and the ly
ing circulars sent out from Atlanta in
tbe name of patriotism. Somebody is
responsible for this state of affairs. If
Atlanta, she is degrading herself in the
sight of all good men, and doing her-
elf more injury by these practices than
can possibly be gained by one day of
g reat influx of penniless negroes into
er gates. If sne is not responsible,
then she should call the parties to ac
count who would use her good name
to further their own interest.—Fairturn
Seict.
IN MACON.
The boys say they had a big time in
Macon on the Fourth.—Telfair Timet.'
Eastman was well represented in
Macon on the Fourth, and all enjoyed
the occasion. Macon never does any
thing by halves—it always goes tbe
whole hog or none.—Eattman Timet.
The Central railroad ran an excur
sion train from Katonton to Macon,
and many persona along the line avail
ed themselves of the opportunity to at-
end tho grand celebration of the birth
day of Liberty in tho beautiful Central
City. People living alongtheFcorgia
ilroad availed themselves of a like
opportunity aflorded by the regular
trams on this road at reduced fare.—
Milledgeville Union.
The Fourth of July excursionists to
Macon, Ga., returned by Sunday after
noon train. Owing to the many who
left for the springs and points North
on account of the low rates to Macon,
the train was densely crowded in going
to Macon, but on the return the excur
sionists had more room and a much
more pleasant time. They speak of
having had a most interesting trip and
they saw sights innumerable. The
“devil” of the Times says it was worth
two dollars just to sit on the top of the
Confederate monument and cat ground
peas and watch the crowd go by.
Abont 10,000 persons were in the Cen
tral Park grounds during the fourth,
8.000 tickets being sold at the gate.
This will net the Public Library not
less than <1,000 cash. The fourth in
Macon was s grand success, and every
thing passed off pleasantly and to tne
delight of the vast crowd in attendance.
The Telegra™ and Messenger of tbe
5th instant gives four and a half col
umns to a notice of the celebration in
that city, and its Atlanta correspond
ent gives Henry Grady and Atlanta
generally a heavy blizzard for the hum-
buggery in the way of a celebration in
that city.—Eufaufa Timet.
make the trip successfully, without
losing his balance and falling through
between the ties into the river far be
low, which, of course, would mean
certain death. Two of the cowboys—
more reckless than their companions—
rode their horses upon the track at a
rapid gait, and then, in single file,
dashed on to the bridge and made for
the other aide, flying along on the na*-
row plank walk juat as if they were
rscing across the prairie after an ob
streperous bovine.
The spectators were thrilled with
horror, and expected to see tiie two
daring men dashed to death at every
jump the horses made. The riders
yellod vociferously, and rode with tbo
same easy confidence they always dis-
lay when at homo upon the plains.
>ne of them was somewhat in advance
of tho other, and the passengers were
astonished and their suspense greatly
relieved when he reached tbe other
side safely and gave vent to a regular
yell of triumph. Bat his companion
was not so lucky. He was within thlr
ty yards of tho end of the bridge—go.
ing at foil speed—when his horse
stumbled. The rider was seen to sway
to and fro for a few seconds, and to
make a desperate effort to pull the ani
mal on its feet again, and then both
went down in a heap. The crowd of
on-lookers, with one impulse, gave
vent to a cry of terror, and a number
of people started ont on the bridge to
render assistance to the unfortunate
fellow. -But almost immediately the
fallen cowboy arose, helped the horse
upon its feet—in some miraculous way
—mounted, and cleared the remaining
space with a rash, yelling like a demon
as he flew down the track on the other
side, in hot pursuit of his companion,
who was almost out of sight, and run
ning as if he were trying to get out of
the way of a cyclone. If horse or rider
was injured, neither showed signs of it
from the distance that intervened.
The cowboy must have had the skin
scraped off his shanks at any rate.
Evidently the horse fell over on its
side on the board walk, and manai
to keep its legs free from the spaces
tween the ties, thus saving itself from
serious injury. It was one of ths most
foolhardy feats on record.

Considerable excitement was created
at Howard Tuesday morning. A negro
man was discovered by Mr. Css tie-
berry about suerise in tbe woods
asleep, with a pistol and valise lying
near him. Mr. Castleberry, noticing
tbe peculiar appearance of the negro,
supposed it to be Jease Cook. He at
onco made known the fact, and a num
ber of gentlemen armed with guns,
proceeded to where the negro was
seen. The woods were very thick, and
tho gentlemen were enabled to get
very near tbe negro before they were
discovered. He was immediately
ordered to aorrendcr, and throw
ing up hi* bands he made a
desperate lnnge through tbe bushes,
and was soon out of sight. His pistol
and valise were 'secured, in which was
found a suit of clolbea, two pings of to

I suffered for more than flvo years with In
digestion, scarcely able to retain the simplest
food on my stomach. Tho burning sensation
was almost intolerable, and my whole system
was deranged. I was wakeful and could not
sleep, and consequently more or less nsrvout
all tho time. I declined in flesh and suffered
all the usual depression attendant upon this
terrible disease. In a word, I wu miserable.
At last, falling to find relief In anything else,
I commenced tho uso of Bwlft’s Specific. 1
began to Improve at once. The medicine
toned np the stomach, strengthened the dices*
tire organs and soon all that baralng cessed,
and coold retain food without difficulty. Now
roy health Is good, anti can eat anjthing in
the shape of food, and digest it without the
slightest difficulty. I moit cheerfully bear
this testimony, because there aro hundreds
suffering as I was, and I am in re they con bo
as readily healed. Take the prescript* da*
after eating. Instead of before.
