Did you ever get it into your noggin
that all the gas in the world, without
a little personal effort, will not accom
plish much for the great Chautauqua?
Ask yourself what you personally are
doing to make it a success. Talking
for it is better than nothing, but let
the managers of the Assembly feel the I j. line of boats we are going to have, II
to put Albany on a fair and equal foot
ing with South Georgia cities. The
Colonel was affable and readily gave
the reporter all the points he desired.
“What did you do, Colonel?”
“We succeeded in haviug our West
ern rates reduced. Our rates are now
the same as those of Americas. The
committee was composed of Messrs.
Davis, Hobbs, Welch, Weston and my
self, and I think we impressed pretty
clearly upon the Commission’s mind
the injury that the former discriminat
ing rates had done the Artesian City.
The Commission treated us with tiie
greatest consideration, and have re
duced our Western rates one-third on
all first-class freight. 1
“About how much per hundred will
it reach, Colonel?”
“Forty cents a hundred on first-
class freight, and about 13 cents per
undred pounds on sixth class. Inter
mediate classes range between the two
figures—the higher the class, the less
the reduction. This is a great thing
for Albany, and when we get the re
duction on fertilizers and cotton over
the Central, with our present rates on
Eastern freights the same as Macon’s
rates, Albany will be prepared to sell
goods as low and pay as high prices for
cotton as the best markets in the
South.”
How about the cotton and fertili
zer freights, Colonel. Did you suc
ceed in having them reduced any?”
“I cau’t say yet. The matter was, I
presume, considered the Railroad
Commission yesterday, and the news
will reach Albany this evening,
I could not possibly say
what will be done, but the
general supposition of the comraRtce
is that our request will be acceded to,
;ud the Central's rales on cotton and
fertilizers will be reduced. Now, you
ran readiiy see what good the com
mittee did by going, and a man though
!ie be blind can perceive at a glance
•lie great gain and advantage to Al
bany in these reductions. It is worth
.liousands a year to our merchants and
armors.
CHAUTAUQUA MILITARY ARRANGEMENTS
“Is there anything else of interest to
Albany you saw or heard while in At- j
taattyCoioad Wight?’’
“Well, yes, there is—a matter ol j
zreat interesr. I called on Governor
Gordon while In the Gate City; he will
be here Thursday and Friday, March
27th and 2Sth, with Adjutant-General
Kell and the entire Governor’s staff.
Adjutant Kell said he would send the
Albany Guards sufficient tents to
camp the Seventh Georgia Battalion
:.nd several visiting companies, and all
the necessary and needed parapher
nalia of a camp, and will do all in his
power to make the military feature of
our Chautauqua a great attraction aud
a perfect success.”
“What about the visiting companies,
Colonel. Heard anything?”
“Yes. The Dawson Guards have
written to say that they will be here,
and the Valdosta Videttes have also
notified me that they are coming.
There will be five or six companies
here, including the Albany Guards,
and these, with the Governor and his
stall', the Adjutant-General, and the
regimeutal officers, will make a grand
pageant and be the finest military dis
play ever seen in these parts.”
“Have any military outside of the
Seventh Battalion been invited?”
“Yes. We have invited the Ameri-
ctis Company, and it is thought they
will come. We are going to invite
■several other companies—probably
from Brunswick, Savannah, Macon
and Atlanta, and we expect at least
two or three of them to visit us.”
A LINE OF BOATS ON THE FLINT.
“Anything else you think of,
Colonel ?”
“Yes. By the way, a great point
had nearly escaped mo just now, but I
am glad I have thought of it. Colonei
L. N. Trammell, the Chairman of the
Commission, informed me that if Al
bany would put a line of boats on the
Flint river, she would get still lower
rates. All goods from the East and
West would be laid down in Albany at
greatly reduced rates all round. And

A NORTHERNER’S VIEW
OF A I.BANY, ITS BElCFY, IT8
EMLKI’ltHC AND ITS SEEDS
The citizens of Albany have seldom
shown so much Interest in any enter
prise as the Columbus Southern rail
road.
The kindly affection manifested by
this people in this road has been almost
touching in its tenderness, and for the :
last six months the query has been in-

of New York, has been in Albany for
The delay necessitated by the heavy i several days, and has taken in the city
ork between Richland and Dawson
caused some of the people here to be
come quite skeptical as to the ultimate
extension of the road to this point, but
the rapid progress in the direction of
Albany within the past few weeks has
dispelled all doubt, and the people are
now fully assured that they will see
the Columbus Southern running trains
into the Artesian City within the
course of the next month.
The completion of the road to this
point will gratify the anxiety of the
greater portion of Albany’s popula
tion, and some demonstration should
be made on that occasion.
The News and Advertiser repre
sentative has talked u ith several lead
ing* citizens on the subject, and it
seems to be the unanimous opinion of
all w1k> have been seen that a big bar
becue should be given when the road is
completed to Albany.
The suggestion is a good one, and
one that should meet with the hearty
•support of the people.
Everybody in this city, and In the
section penetrated by this road, has its
welfare at heart, and the completion of
the road could be celebrated in this
manner at comparatively little expense
to the public.
Donations ol meats could be made
by the public at large, and then a small
contribution collected to defray the
expense of serving and preparing the
barbecue. This would fall lightly
upon everybody, and a grand time
could be enjoyed on the day that the
last rail is laid into the city.
The officers of the Columbns South
ern have labored faithfully to complete
me road to Albany as early as possi
ble. Mr. Sam F. Parrott, the general
manager, and Major W. S. Green, the
Jhlef engineer, have been unselfish In
their labors to push the woik. Capt.
Redd, the chief of construction, has
pushed the convicts as rapidly as pos
sible, consistent with the time rc-
and surrounding country generally.
Mr. Carhilton has a superb summer
residence near Ogsdenburg, N. Y
where be spends two or three of the
hottest months of the summer, aud he
is visiting a few cities of the South—
the smaller ones—with a view to
building a villa where he can sojourn
and take it easy during the winter.
The News and Advertiser d
laid hold of lii:u WtdmsJar, and got
a short talk out of him. Mr. Carhilton
is a fluent speaker, well posted, and
certainly knows something about
city, and the paper gives its readers the
result of the interview.
“How do you like Albany, Mr. Car
hilton?” the reporter began.
“Wonderfully well, sir; wonderful
well. You have a magnificient little
city here, and a wonderfully clever
people, too, sir. Nature has blessed
this part of the country wish a lavish
hand—a climate I uever saw equalled,
aud a water that is almost a perfect
elixir of life. Your artesian wells are
regular fountains of health and beauty,
and,the wonderful medicinal qualities
of this artesian water have done me
good even during my r-hort stay.
Yes, sir, nature lias done much for Al
bany and Dougherty county. r Ihe
lands appear to be rich, and I hear fa
vorable reports from all whom I ques
tion.”
“Have you looked over the Chau
tauqua programme I gave you, Mr.
Carhilton?”
“Yes, I have. Your Chautauqua is
a great affair, and reflects credit upon
its founders and the gentlemen who
are pushing it forward to 6uch a glori
ous culmination. I have met several
of them, and they are a? clever as they
are public-spirited, and I hope their
Assembly will be all they wish it, and

This news developed at a meeting of
the City Council Tuesday afternoon,
wheu Mayor Woolfolk handed Clerk
Rust a communication, saying:
Mr. Clerk, please read this for the
information of the Council.”
Clerk Rust opened the communica
tion and read as follows:
Savannah, Ga., Feb. 22, 1S90.
Zfon. T. X. Woolfolk, Mayor, Albany,
Georgia:
Dear Sib:—Replying to your es

tive to the construction of new depot

Cecil Garrett,
General Manager.
A broad smile of satisfaction played
on the countenances of the “city dad-
des,” with an occasional “That’s
good,” “Good for Gabbett,” etc.,
from the members.
Mayor Woolfolk then said: “I will
state that having been informed by the
attorneys for the S., F. A W. and B. A
W. railroad here that they were in
formed by the officers of the roads they
represent, that they were waiting on

The Artesian House last Saturday
received a telegram from New Bedford,
Mass., signed Sarah Carlin, requesting
a certificate oi the deatii of her bus-
band, John H. Carlin, who died here
last Wednesday.
Site means tlie man who came
here about a week ago, ami
registered as Jas. Larkin, Cincinnati,
Ohio. She presumably wants the cer
tificate of her husband’s death to get
his property or to marry again.
Was Larklu’s right name Carlin?
That nobody here knows. He was an
entire stranger, and could not be iden
tified except by some of his people
from the North. Dr. W. A. Strother,
who attended him, can furnish a cer
tificate that a man registering by the
name of James Lai kin died at the Ar
tesian House last Wednesday morn
ing. That’s ail.
It Larkin was Carlin there is some
mystery about the affair, and Larkin's
people knew lie was traveling under
an assumed name. It is true that Lar
kin was rather mixed in his statements
before lie died, and wandered a good
deal, giving his sister’s right name and
wrong addres*, but when she did
finally receive intelligence by means
unknown of Jas. Larkin's death, she
telegraphed for particulars of her
brother’s death and said that
she had forwarded money to pay ex
penses. But, too late; he had been
buried by the charity of tlie Catholics.
And now his wife wants a certificate
of John 11. Carlin’s death.
It Larkin was Carlin, what was lie
d<jing traveling around under aa as

Chaaiaaqaa .4cc«mmedatl*aa,
The letters that are being dally re
ceived by the Chautauqua manage
ment from parties announcin' their
determination to visit tlie city at that
time indicate that Albany is to have
his year the largest crowd that
ever entered her gates.
These parties will depend upon the
“Do you think you will locate in
j Albany?”
“Well, I don’t know—but I rather
; think not. Albany has all the natural
j advantages in the world, and her peo
ple are clever and sociable, but I don’t
fiud tlie improvements here that one
naturally expect* in a town of this
size, inhabited by such clever people—
it lacks many thing* that a city should
have.”
! “Whatare they, Mr. Carhilton?”
‘•Well, I don’t think I care to enum
erate them, but here are a few: Al-
! bany needs a fine hotel—a need felt
! by every traveler who comes here,
j The house at which I ain stopping is
good, the manager is polite, and the
waiters attentive, but it is small and
has not the conveniences that a large,
commodious building would have.
Then she needs water works; but I
understand she will have them soon.
I was astonished to learn that some of
your citizens opposed them. No city
can afford to be without them. Then
you need an opera house. Parties who
winter here with you do not wish to
simply vegetate. They want to have
some pleasures—and a good opera
house, showing good troups, you must
have if you expect them to come to
Albany for the winter.”
“Yes, ye*; you are right ou those
points; anything else Albany needs?”
“Why, cemiuly. She needs a first-
class public school system. People are
going to carry their children to the
town that has the besi public schools.
Albany’ll have to have them sooner or
later. And then you need crossings
at your street corners; you should at
least have sterpin ' stones. 1 see Al
bany is going to have her sidewalks
paved, but you need the crossings as
much as you do tlie pavements, if not
more. Then this city needs to lie di
vided into wards. I was antouiehed
when 1 learned tiiat it was not so di
vided. And she needs fire-alarm tele
graph. Her electric light company
has the poles already. A small cart
would put the alarm wires up, and the
reduction in insurance would double
tlie taxes. An l Albany needs an elec
tric railway from the depot up through
and around town. She already has an
electric plant, and tiie tiectrieity could
be easily furnished,”
“Well, Mr. Carhilton you make out
a strong case against Albany. Has
anything el*e impressed you?”
“Yes. 1 was particularly struck by

THE SESSION IN DETAIL.
Mayor Woolfolk called the bddv to
order, and tlie roll call showed that
Mr. Jones was the only absentee.
The minutes of the last regular
meeting and one called meeting were
read and adopted.
.Several accounts were read and or
dered paid, and a number of dray and
liquor bonds accepted.
The committee having the matter in
hand reported that the bid of Mr. John
Drinkwatcr to sewer the large ditch
had been accepted.
Tlie petition of the Electric Light
ouipany to have its contract with
the city modified came up as unfit*
bed business and, on motion, the pe
tition was refused.
PAVE THE 8IDKWALKS.
Mr. Pope then attracted the close
and undivided attention of the Coun
cil by a motion to have the sidewalks
the business portion of the city
paved.
Ilis motion was to instruct the City
Attorney to draw an ordinance requir
ing the property owners to pave the
sidewalks iu that part of tlie city from
the corner ot Jackson and Broad
streets (Westbrook corner; to Wash
ington street, from the office of tbe Ar

such place* where pavements are al

must complete the work within six

The motion prevailed, aud the Coun

On Saturday tlie following letter was
received at the Executive Department
in Atlanta:
Albany, Ga.. Feb. 21, 1S90.
Governor John B. Gordon:
Dear Sir:—I hereby tender my
resignation as Captain ol the Albany
Guards, to take effect at once. 1
would suggest that an election be or
dered at once to fill the vacancy.
Yours truly,
Ed. L. Wight,
Albany Guards.
With the promptness that character
izes Georgia’s Chief Executive, Gov.
Gordon immediately responded, and
yesterday’s mail brought to Lieuten
ant J. R. Forrester an order for tha
election ter a new Captain to be held
on Monday, March 3d. On that even-
the election will be held at their
armory in Willingham’s IlaU. Tha
boys may be relied upon to select a
man that will be both a credit to them
selves and to Albany.
The Guards are pushing forward
their preparations to entertain tbe
Seventh Georgia Battalion, and they
are salitfie.l that they will make
Governor’s Day the greatest day of
the Chautauqua.
Mr. R. H. Warren, when questioned
by the reporter, said that the com
mitree for raising funds for the ban
quet, etc., were entirely satisfied with
their pi ogress so far, and would raise
a sum sufficient to give the battalion
ami Gov. Gordon a right royal recep
tion.
The Emperor of Germany has ap
pointed Gen. Estes of V\ ashington,
D. C., as commissioner to look up the
heirs ot Baron Fisher, who fled from
that country in 1773 to avoid imprison
ment for shooting daer in the Em
peror’s park.
Tlie B-tron fled iu great haste, leav
ing his bsainess afl-tirs unsettled, and
all his projieriy behind, and for fear
of arrest never reclaimed it, and it
pa*sed to the next ol kin. The line to
which it pas-ed haviug now become
extinct, it reverts back to the Baron’s
descendants. Gen. Estes has been un
tiring iu his researches, and has found
forty-five of the heirs—there are sup
posed to be forty-niue. The fortune
eft in Germany has accumulated to
sach an extent that it now reaches the
enormous sum of $51,000,000, and each
heir will get about $1,041,000.
What has this to do with Dr. Shine?
Well, just this. Dr. Shine i3 a de
scendant on his mother's siJe of Baron
Fisher, both his mother and his great-
aunt being supposed heirs.
In 1773 Mrs. Shine’s grandfather’s
grandfather came to America, leaving
a vast fortune behind in Germany, and
it was well known th it he was a
Baron, who had fled from Germany
lor fear of imp-isoninent for some triv
ia! offense aggravated by the disturbed
political status of tlie country at the
time, having incurred the disp'easurc
of the government by his stand on
8>me political question. In those dayt
political imprisonments were for life,
and a man was the same as buried alive
when arrested upon a royal warrant.
Baron Fisher knew All this, and knew
that the most trivial offense was made
the cat’s-paw to forward the political
extinction of anyone whose presence
was obnoxious to the crown. He came
to thi* country and settled in Culpep
per, Va., and from him Mrs. Shine,
nee Fisher, is descended. He never
reclaimed his property for fear of be
ing followed and arrested, and it is
presumed it passed to next of kin.
There is no doubt that Mrs. Shine is
his descendant, but some little hitch
has occurred in getting up records and
following up dates of births and mar
riages, owing to the general devasta
tion and upturning of Virginia, both
ia the war of the Revolution and in
tiie late war between tlie States. Many
of the records have been lost or de
stroyed by the different occupying
force?, and although there is not the
least shadow of a doubt, it may turn
out that she will not get the money for
lack ot these very papers.
Mrs. Shine and her husband,
and Dr. Shine’s brother, living
in Tallahassee, and Dr. R. A.
Shine, of Albany, come into an
heir’s share of $1,041,000 and their
Florida neighbors will be as glad
a.* the News and Advertiser to wel
come the glad tidings of good fortune
to the family.
Dr. Shine’s father is in correspon
dence with General Estes, at Washing
ton, and i* very hopeful anil expectant
in regard to his wife’s claims.
Dr. R. A. Shine, when question
ed about it Monday afternoon said
he did not have very strong hopes of
realizing much from the Baron’s for
tune, that the records are too deficient,
and that he cannot believe in the good
luck until it come«. He said he had

Dr. W. L. Davis, who was in the
neighborhood of the old Wilson place
in Baker county Sunday afternoon
gives the News and Advertiser the
facts-of quite a sensational death over
in that county.
During Christmas week a negro
womsn living on the farm of Mr. Jno.
M. Davis, about three miles the other
side of the old Wilson place, left her
home early in the afternoon, telling
them to be sure and save her supper if
she was not back in time; that she
going over to a neighbor’s and might
not be home promptly at the supper
hour.
But she never came back that night
at all, nor did she ever come home
again. Day after day passed and
nothing was heard of her. Search via
made, and investigation had, but no
trace of her could be found. Time
passed, and she almost became forgot
ten, except by her own people.
Last Friday evening late a laborer
working near the banks of the Flint
river, discovered a human foot above
the surface of the stream, swaying
back and forth, as if beckoning him to
come. The negro, being frightened to
death, sifted sand from that locality,
and went up to Mr. Davis's house and
reported the matter. It was then dark
and nothing could be done until morn-
ing.
Saturday morning about 200 negroes
congregated on the banks of the river,
and the body was fished out and recog
nized as that of the woman who had
been missed some two months back.
Tlie body was taken to her former
home, turned over to her people, and
buried without post mortem or coro
ner’s inquest. There is considerable
excitement iu the settlement over the
affair and some muttering* of foul
play are heard.
It is a remarkable incident that a
body should remain in tbe water two
months and not decompose or become
unrecognizable, but such are the facta
as learned from I)r. Davis.

i has been missing since Christmas, that
j she was found Saturday in the river,
: and in a well preserved state, and
everybody took it for granted that she

But is such the case?
How long will a body remain in the
water, and uot become decomposed,
and not be nibbled or eaten by tiie
fishes and animalculae 'hat inhabit the
river? And what of snapping turtles?
was she kidnapped?
It is the belief that a body could not
remain in the water sixty days intact
and iu a perfectly sound state, that has
led to the suspicion of foul play, and
tiie general comment on the facts is
ti<at the woman was enticed from
home by some party or parties for
some purpose unknown, and that she

and then made way with and thrown
into the river.

The News and Advertiser pub
lishes on another page this week a
very interesting article on “Beman’s
School,” clipped (rom the columns of
the Atlanta Journal, which has ex
cited much interest among the teachers
of the State. The article is published
by request of Mr. G. H. Thomas, who
brought It to the News and Adver
tiser in reply to a suggestion from
Prof. Z. 1. Fitzpatrick, principal ot the
Albany Academy. Prot. Fitzpatiick
seemed to think, when spoken to about
the matter by the reporter, that in
view of the recent occurrence at his
home the publication of the article
may do some good, as well as proving
of interest to the public. It will be
good reading for both patrons and
pupilt.
Below ia appended Prof. Fitz

gesting its publication:

Mr. G. H. Thomas:
Dear Sir:—I thank you very much

In a talk with City Father R. H.

News and Advertiser man that the
Waterworks Committee of the City
Council had been visited by Mr. Ben
nett, the waterworks man who has
put in Tullahassee’s plant and who
is now engaged in giving Dawson her
waterworks.
Mr. Bennett was on his wsy to
Dawson, and stopped to have a talk
with the committee. Mr. Bennett has
bought the franchise for the Dawson
waterworks, and says he is going to
give them a spank-up plant, and that
as soon as the Council hears from the
injunction now pending before the Su
preme Court, he will come over and
give Albany a bid. lie says Albany
has the facilities and is laid off for the
most thorough system of waterworks
in the State, and he will feel proud of
a chance to put them in.
That Mr. Bennett should purchase
Dawson’s franchise shows his faith in
waterworks, and when Albany once
gets them those who have opposed
them will have aa great a faith aa even
Mr. Bennett.
The decision, it is expected, will be
rendered either to-day or to-morrow
in the Supreme Court, and as soon aa
it is decided the News and Adver
tiser will give the people the glad tid
