Fire.
On the night til the 13th the cotton
house of Mr. D. E. Nelms, on the Tal
lahassee p'ace,- fourteen mites west of
this city, was burned, together with
four bates of cotton. It was 12:30
o’clock when the fire was discovered,
and the outride of the building was
then a sheet of fl-une. A strong odor
of kerosene \va* noticed by the negro
first discovering the fire, shewiug con
clusively an incendiary origin. Mr.
Nelms saved 700 pounds of seed cot
ton from the pile left after tlie debris
of the bur* ed building was removed.

about the head and shoulders and will
probably be confined to her bed for a

and her many friends in the city are
gratified to know that her injuries are
not more serious.

There is not great promise as yet
that Albany will have a very brilliant
dieatricnl s*a«on this winter. The in

and onr large floating population may,
however, turn the tide of many travel

The New Dry Goods Store.
Messrs. Bailey & Shaffer announced
through the columns of the News and
Advertiser a short time ago that they
would soon open a first-class dry goods
establishment in Albany; that they
would open with an immense stock,
that tlieir goods would be first-class,
their prices law, etc. It now becomes
our pleasure to assure our readers
that they have fulfilled all the prom
ises that they made. Their stock is
immense, their goods first-class, and
their prices very low. They evident
ly’ “mean business/* and have come to
stay. Their -‘Trade PaU.ce** is now
open to the public, and a cordial in
vitation is extended to all to call and
examine their goods and pi ices. Their
mammoth advertisement on our sup
plement this week speaks for itself
aud for the enterprising firm that sends
it out.
Mr. John D. Gilbert has accepted
a position iu the new fancy dry goods
store of Messrs. Bailey & Shaffer, and
will be found behind their counters.
Mr. Gilbert has a large acquaintance
aud a host of friends in aud aronnd
Albany, and will be valuable to hia
new employers.
Uon. J. E. Dart, the able and effi

one of the most active members of the
present Legislature, and he and Mr.
Broyles, of Whitfield, together, have
certainly demonstrated the fact that
good railroad conductors make good
legislators.

A Perilled Cariosity.
Ths ed^l* if the News and’Ad
vertiser was presented by Capt. J.
G. Stephens of this city, yesterday
morning, with one of the greatest
curiosities we have ever seen in the
way of petrification. It is or has been,
a terrapin or turtle of some kind. It
is in a perfect slate of petrifiication,
being as hard and almost as white as
a piece of solid marble. It weighs
about a pound, and on tho outside all
the marks of a tarrapiu shell are plain
ly to be seen. There on the back o*
this stony’ formation is the imprint of
a star fish, which is also as plainly
marked as the terrapin is. Taken al
together it is one of the rarest and
most perfect specimens'of animal pe
trification that we have ever seen
It was found about fifty feet under
ground when Capt. Stephens was hav
ing a large well dug at his mill neur
the river in this ciiy.
Sometblns co be Remembered.
We have iu stock about three thous
and dollars worth of boots, shoes and
hats, which we will offer for the next
thirty days regardless of their valne.
For instance, we will sell you a wo
man’s good every day shoe for 75 cents
which wc formerly sold at $1.50; an
other better grade for $1X0 that can’t
be touched for less than $2.00 any
where else. The only reason in the
world why wc will make such sacri
fices is that we are going to discon
tinue the shoe and hat business, and
confute ourselves exclusively to Dry
Deaths In Vast Doualierty.
It is our painful duty to announce
two deaths from the circles two
prominent nnd well known families iu
East Dougherty.
On the night of the 13 li Mr. (line*
Harris,eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. B F
Harris, diet! at 11 o’clock, from tvphoid
fever. He w:»* a youn/ man a!»-*ut
seventeen \* ars of ae*», universally os
teemed by all who knew him, and
giving promise of a vigorous man
hood.
On the morning of the 14th at 5 o’clock.
Robert Reynold*, eldest son of Mr.
and Mrs. Harmon Reynolds, departed
this life alter a short illness from
malarial fever. He was about twelve
year8of age, a bright and intelligent
boy and a great favorite with all.
A very sad feature of these deaths
is that Mrs. Harris and Mrs. Reynolds
were sisters, and both ars bereaved of
their eldest children. The double
fun ral took place at Piue Bluff
church Saturday afternoon, being
conducted by Rev. ZjJLGrayetL^
A Flouriablnc Establishment.
A reporter of the News and Ad
vertiser stepped into the establish
ment of Messrs. Tift & Irvin Mon
day and was surprised to notice the
immense stock this young firm is car-
rying, as welt as the evidences shown
of a flourishing business. In the main
room was seen piles and stacks of
blinds,doors, sash and other material,
and in other departments is stored
laths, plaster and cement, while
they seem to have the only first-clsss
lumber yard in the city, supplying
from it any size of lumber required.
Their stock embraces, in fact, every
thing in the line of builders’ material,
the largest stock, we understand, kept
outride of Macon or Savannah, and
the prices iu these cities are duplicated.
Buying by car load they are enabled
t-j sell at low figures. These gentle
men are certainly prepared for the
building boom, and their business is
already assuming large proportions.
From a small business two years ago it
has grown until their sales are num
bered among the thousands. Ov«r a
thousand dollars worth of material
has been sold by them withip the last
two weeks. Orders are pouring in
daily from every railroad leading into
this city. As an evidence of their
sales we learn that they have supplied
the new hotel, the oil mill, the Walt
er’s building and nearly all the new
buildings with all the material used iu
their line, and are shipping all over
this section. We are glad to note these
evidences of a large trade, and wish
them a continuance of the flourishing
business which their pluck and enter
prise will assuredly command.

THE COLT SHOW.
A Fine Display of Blooded Stock—
the Awards.
The colt show which took place in
the Conrt House square yesterday
was a complete success. From fifteen
to twenty colts were exhibited, and
the show was really interesting. An
old “stock man” who was on the
✓
ground remarked to the representa
tive of the Nrws and Advertiser,
after inspecting the lot, that he could
select six colts out of those on exhibi
tion that would compare favorably
with any that he had ever seen in
Kentucky.
Mr. C W. Randall was the originator
of this colt show, and is entitled to
much credit for its success. It was
an informal affair, and, in the absence
of any -standard or rules for the guid
ance of the judges, the latter bad to
make the awards as best they could,
without reference to the grade or
“blood” of the auimals.
Messrs. J. M. Cutliff, of this city,
F. M. Heath, of Lee county, and
\V. W. Hooks, of Sumter county,
were selected as Judges, and after
carefully inspecting sll the snimtls,
awarded the premiums, which had
been bought by subscription, as fol
lows:
1st prize—silver cup—awarded to
“Chan Jones,” a beautiful little ma
hogany bay, 3 months old, sired by
Dick Burton, end owned by Mr.
Alonza J. Walters.
2d prize—silver cup—awarded to a
four months old bsy colt, sired bv
Barney Wilkes and owned by Dr. P.
L. Hilsman.
3d prize—silver cup—awarded to
five months old. black cult, sired by
Barney Wilkes and owned by Mr. S.
P. Salter.
4th prize—set of exhibiting harness
—awarded to sorrel colt owned by
Mr. C. W. Randall.
The tin cup was bnr.,e away by Mr.
Thomas Pattison.
No one who saw this colt show can
doubt thac the farmers of Dougherty
county are beginning to take a lively in
terest in fine stook, and last Saturday’s
exhibition will tend to increase that
interest May we not, in fact, now
hope and safely predict that we will
soon have a stock-breeders’ associa
tion in Dougherty county? Such an
association wouid do a great deal for
the improvement of the live stock of
the county, and i.i a short time we
could have colt shows, cattle shows
and hog shows that wouid be worth
seeing.
Dining.
Mr. and Mrs. L. Sterile dined quite
a large number of friends at their
hospitable home in this city, on Sun

The new through route from Cin

1IIOTBEB.1IDBDEB IN WORTH.
Mr. J. W. Calhoun Killed by Allen
Ford, Colored.
News reached the city early Mon-
day morning that Mr. James W. Cal
houn had been shot and itiBtanlly
killed, in Worth connty, late Sunday
afternoon, by a negro named Allen
Ford. Two citizens of Worth came
to the city after a coffin and a burial
suit for the remains of Mr. Calhoun,
but their stay was very short, and the
Naws and Advertiser failed to get
an interview with them. Those who
talked with them say that the gentle
men were not very communicative
upon the sbjcct of tlie unfortunate af
fair, and we are, therefore, unable to
give anything like a toll statement of
the parliculars.
From all that we could learn, how
ever, it seems that the negro, Allen
Ford, had been charged by Mr. Cal
houn with stealing a bridle from him.
They; quarreled about it recently, and
on Sunday afternoon Mr. Calhoun
met the negro in the road with the
stolen property ou bis horse or male,
whereupon be made an attack upon
the negro—either for the purpose of
recovering the brid'e, or administer
ing a flogging—it is not known which.
When Mr. Calhoun advanced upon
the negro the latter drew his pistol
and shot him, the ball taking effect in
the region of the heart and producing
death almost instantly.
We learn that the affair was wit
nessed by two negroes only, and hence
it is, perbap9, that a more satisfactory
statement of the facts caucot be ob
tained. It is also said that Mr. Cal
houn was unarmed.
The negro made his e-cape,.and had
not, up to last accounts, been captured.
/ Mr. Calhoun was a iveil-:o i<o farm
er of Worth conutv, and was highly-
esteemed by his neighbors. He leaves
a wife and seven little children.

A yonng man who gives his name
as A. W. Andrews, came to the city
last week, evidently for the purpose
of enjoying himself. He registered
at the BogeD House, aud alter be had
enjoyed the hospitality of that hostel
ry fora’ week he was called upon for
the amount of his bill. He not only
refused to pay, bat was very insolent.
When Mrs. Bogeu sent to him for
what he owed her, he sent her word
to "go to hell; Ihat he didn’t intend to
pay.” After this he imbibed too free
ly and was arrested by the police for
disorderly conduct. When arraigned
before Mayor Greer, the sentence pro
nounced by His Honor was, “Ten dol
lars and costs, or thirty days iu the
guard house.’’ Tho young man now
languishes in durance vile, and Mar
shal Westbrook is in receipt of a tele
gram stating Ihat he is wanted in Fort

Attempted Polsonlne.
Tuesday Ihe News and Advertis
er learned the particulars of a most
bold and diabolical attempt upon
the part of a negio named Wesley
Williams to poison the family of Mr.
J. W. McMillan, near Chickas&w-
hafebie, in Terrell county, on Monday,
morning last.
Wesley Williams was in the em
ploy of Mr. McMillan, and was in
the habit of coming to the house catty
every morning and building a fire iu
the kitchen for Mrs. McMillan. On
Monday morning Mrs. M. was un
well, and the negro volunteered to
cook breakfast. Mrs. M. got np and
went into the kitchen aftel- a while to
see to the preparation of the meal for
the table, and when she inspected
the coffee she discovered that it did
not look exactly right Mr. McMil
lan and Mr. T. J. Pelham, a young
man who lives with the family, had
their attention .called to the coffee, and
they soon satisfied themselves that it
had been tampered with, with per-
haps, foul intentions.
Meantime tho negro, who was of
course on the lookout discovered that
he had been caught out und would be
called upon to explain, so he made
tracks for the woods. A full investi
gation revealed the fact that the
scoundrel had put half a can of pot
ash-in the coffee. It is supposed that
his object was to poison the family
and then rob the house. Fortunately
for them, however, the appearance of
the coffee betrayed the would-be mur
derer, and they escaped the terrible
fate that he had prepared for them.
^ We learn that Westey Williams is a
bad character who had to flee from
this county some time ago for smug
gling cotton.
