Professional cracksmen got in thek
work in • the city Monday morning
about 2 o’clock, the scene of their un
lawful and burglarious search after
cash being the beautiful little office of
Crnger & Pace at their variety works
on Jefferson street.
But it was a most unprofitable night’s
work for the burglars, they only get
ting the insignificant sum of $1.05 as a
reward for their work and the risk
they took.
A reporter visited the scene of the
burglary Monday morning and found
Mr. Will Pace on deck looking as quiet
as if nothing had ever happened.
There are two safes in the office, one
belonging to Mr. Pace and the other to
Mr. Cruger.
It was Mr. Pace’s safe that was
blown open, and from its wrecked ap
pearance Monday morning, it looked
us if it will hardly do service again.
The lock of this safe was shattered
heyand repair, and the inside portion
of the door was removed and was lean
ing against the entrance to the office
proper. Tue facing of the door was
-till on the hinges, and the interior of
the safe was blackened with powder.
One of the drawers of the safe contain
ing some deeds and other valuable pa
pers belonging to the firm was taken
away.
The burglars found two heavy buggy
robes in the office, and these they
thoroughly saturated with water and
wrapped around the safe in order to
deaden the sound of the explosion.
Powder was the explosive used, and
the explosion was accomplished by
means of a fuse, a piece of which was
found on the floor Monday morning.
The lock to every desk and cabinet
drawer in the building was broken by
the thieves in their search for lucre,
and they drilled a hole into the lock of
Mr. Cruger’s safe, but probably think
ing a second explosion would subject
them to too great risk of detection,
did not interfere with it farther.
Entrance to the building was affect
ed by a rear window; the blinds being
unlatched, the sash was prized up
with a chisel and the window lock
broken. Three imprints of the chisel
used is to be seen at the bottom of the
s a»h.
The thieves escaped from the build
ing by a -ide door which was locked
with anight latch. They left a brace
aud a chisel behind them, which had
been stolen from a tool chest in the
Morris Mayer new residence, belong
ing to a negro workman.
So far as known the explosion was
heard only by the night watchman
employed around the yard, ar.d indis
tinctly by him, as he is somewhatdeaf.
On hearing the explosion ho went to
the building, punched the watchman’s
clock, and finding everything quiet
and ali right to outward appearances,
paid no more attention to the mat
ter.
The manner in which the work was
done bears every evidence of the hands
of professionals, who had made them
selves thoroughly acquainted with the
premises, if not with the contents of
the safe blown open.
A Case.
Sandy McDonald, a..turpentine ne
gro from Willingham, came to the
city Wednesday bringing with him Gus
Gatling, an old negro, who lived only
a short.time after lie reached the city.
Gatling was brought here for medical
attention, having been unable to se
cure any at Willingham. As soon as
he reached the city McDonald sought
accommodations for the old man, but
found them only with great difficulty
in the old hotcl.on the river front. Dr.
Hilsman was then called, but it needed
not a critical examination to sec that
the old man’s hours were numbered.
Dr. Ililsman told McDonald that Gat
ling would not live two hours, and in
less than two -hours the old man had
breathed his last.
McDonald tried to get assistance
from a number,' of colored 5people In
order to give the old man decent bur-
nil, but met with poor success.

Mr. J. 8. Doris, Albany, Ga.,
Will you please say to the people of
Albany that it will be my purpose
to give a course of business instruction
during the coming assembly which
will afford aa good an opportunity Tor
acquiring a practical knowledge of
Kkeeping aud commercial affairs,
an be ol
as can be obtained iu this country
And that althong the time allowed for
tois work is comparatively short, it
does not preclude thorough work in all
branches. If the youug people of your
city will enter upon this course, aud
‘tudiou«l v follow out the instructions,
I am willing to guarantee Xlbst excel
lent results.
The various branches of a business
education are presented just as practi
cally as in any of the colleges, and the
books, blanks and other materials used
are identical with those found in lb*
leading institutions ol this character.
I never Ir.td a better class of students
for instruction, than those who were
in my department at Albany last year,
and 1 am so sure of doiog more effec
tive work this -eason, that i trust the
numbers attending may be greatly In
crease* I.
In the penmanship department will
be found the very best of advantage?
and mil who appreciate the value of a
fine handwridug can be certain to se
cure a satisfactory improvement.
1 would suggest the immediate or
ganization of a morning class for youi g
ladies and misses, as by this means a
complete course may be finished, be
fore Dr. Anderson begins work’ iu hie
department.
Very sincerely yours,
C. R.AVetls.
Already visitors $re arriving In the
city, and the prospects are that the
largest visitation that Albany ever had
within her borders will visit the Geor
gia Chautauqua.
Phillips & Crew, the well known
dealers in musical merchandise of At

pianos for the Chautauqua.
Mr. M. Crine informed a News and
Advertiser reporter Wcdesday that
he was in leceipt of letters from young
relatives in Bainbridge announcing
that they would be up to join the
Chautauqua Normal Classes, which
opens on the 9tb lost.
Albany is preparing to put her best
foot foremost at Chautauqua. The
paint brush Is busy brightniug up the
elegant homes of the cj*y, and Street
Overseer Sibley is sweeping the street?
and sidewalk**, figuratively, for the
occasion. Albany’s a neat city, Al
bany Will be the neatest and most at
tractive city in Georgia during the ten
days through which the third annual
session oflhe Georgia Chautauqua will
run.
Prof. C. C. Case, tlie conductor sf

tauqua, is one of the most justly re
nowned musical composers In America,

There Is a movement on foot to
bring tlie entire faculty and all the
students of Mercer University to the
Chautauqua on Educational Day, at
which time Hon. S. D. Brad well. State
School Commissioner, will preside and
address the people on matters touching
the vital interest of education. Rev.
A. D. Majro, a distinguished divine,
will also deliver an address on that oc
casion, on “H‘»w does Popular Educa
tion Pay.” Dr. Nunnally, the honor
ed President of Mercer, ami the facul
ty and students will all fee warnriy
w loomed and given distinguished
consideration.
The special schools of the Chau
tauqua afford an opportunity to
the people of Southwest Georgia
that should be highly appre
ciated. The best talent that cau
be secured U brought to instruct In de
partments of knowledge that should be
sought after by the people.
There were about COO enrolled in all
of the various departments of the
Chautauqua last season; let there be

Dr. W. A. Duncan has proven a

Alt EYG WITItESS TO THE CRIME
For Whick Turner Rebinaon ia It aw
n F«si*iv® From A aslics.
The Boston Globe commences an in
teresting article on the physical in
firmities of the women of the present
with the following four queries: “Is
there a well woman? Do you know
one? Is there among your acquaint
ances a woman who is perfectly well?
Are you yourself well?” In nine in
stances out of ten, or probably in even
still greater proportion, these ques
tions would have to be answered in the
negative. Why is It thus? Is it be
cause that womankind cannot stand
civilization or is it because she is the
victim of her own follies in dress?
Trobahly the latter. No wciuan can
hope I to be healthy and rpmain
so, it she persists In cramping
her form within the narrow confines
of a corset altogether too small for her.
Nothing in nature can have perfect
being when it is reared contrary to
niture’s immutable rules and laws.
Corsets are probably responsible for
nine-tenths of the physical weaknesses
of womeu, aud It is time for them to
call a halt in their use. Let them cease
their efforts at reforming the men for
a while and pay some attention to their
own sad decline, through which nn-
numhered ills will be visited upon the
balance of mankind unless it is checked.

Saturday morning the News and
Advertiser reporter was accosted
by General Henry Morgan, who wa?
one of the fate Col. John P. Davis’
most intimate friends, with the query
“What was your object in publish-
i-ig Coi. Davis’ will?”
Simply as * matter of news,” re
plied the scribe.
“Well, you made a mi-take In your
estimate of the value of hi* estate.”
“How so?” asked the pencil-pusher.
•Why.” saiti the General, **his w
tale in North Carolina 19 worth full;
one hundred thousand dollars, and hi
estate in GeorgU Is worth half as much
more, and possibly many times more.
It is probably not very generally
known that on Col. Davis* Flint river
plantation, nine miles from the city, is
fo
what appears \o be an inexbanstable
be I of phosphate rock, which essays,
according to the ritat* Chem-sr, seventy
per cent, or high grade phosphate.”
“Did Col. Davis intend to develop
this deposit!” ..
“Yes, had he lived he would have
commenced the development ot the
deposit the coming summer. He had
a>l his plans matured with this end in
view, but death intervened, and the
development of the deposit will de
pend upon its present owner, Mr. Du-
iaav Wooten, Col. Davis’ nephew.
“I do not know what Mr. Wooten’s
intentions are in the premises, but in
my own mind I am satisfied that there
ore few richer phosphate deposits any
where than the one in question. In
company with Col. Davis, I have ex
amined the deposit several times, and
we found every indication to warrant
the belief that it is almost inexhausti
ble. This is why I say that the Geor
gia portion of the estate is worth many
times more than at what it has been
ordinarily valued.
1 entertain the high opinion which
Col. Davis held for DuLauy Wooten,
and feel pretty certain that his push
and enterprise will soon be exerted in
the development orthis phosphate bed,
9nd then Albany and Dougherty

proud of, anti something else to war

Jail.
Sheriff L. E. Black and Mr. Howard,
of Blakely, came to the city Wednesday
accompanied by Will Anderson who
killed John Costello In a barroom row
in Blakely la?t Saturday night.
As Anderson was being put In the
tender Care of Jailer Hilburn, a News
and Advertiser reporter endeavored
to get him to talk, but under the in
structions of his lawyers, Messrs. Clar-
rnce Wilson, of Fort Gain*»s, and Dun
can Oliver, ol Blakely, he reiused to
say anything.
Anderson in a tall, r&w-d>one young
fellow, extremely awkward In appear
ance, and yesterday morning when he
was assigned to his cell, and as the
door was about to close him In from
the 6unligbt, there was an appealing
look in liis blue eyes which 6eemed to
ask for sympathy.
Anderson is a hard working^ young
farmer, and up to the time he shot Gas
tello was never known to have but
one other difficulty.
He and his brother, Wash Anderson,
lived on the same farm which they had
become owners of by dent of perse
verance and hard work. In their em
ploy were several white women of
doubtful character, who had been re
ceiving'visits from several parties,
among them Castello.' These visitors
were given to understand by Wash
Anderson that he did not appreciate
tbeir visits, and were ordered to dis
continue them, and this was the un
derlying cause of the difficulty which
resulted In the killing of John Castello
by Will Anderson, who seemed to have
been the tool ot his brother Wash.
The coroner’s jury which sat upon
the killing rendered a verdict of volan
tary manslaughter, but all accounts
agree that the deed was a graver of
fense than that.
The Castello family, it is said, has al
ready secured the services of Col. R.
H. Powell, of Blakely, to assist in
prosecuting Anderson to the bitter
end.
Wash Anderson will he tried as ac
cessory of the crime, and is out on
bale in the sum of $600.
Public sentiment in Early county is
said to be almost unanimously against
Anderson.
Anderson came to the city pretty
well supplied with bedding and bad
several changes of clothing in

sirous of being made comfortable and
had a barber to visit the jail shortly
after his arrival for the purpose of
giving him a shave.
I have a cousin who is a printer says
Ex. Mayor J. B. Longbran of North
Des Moines, la. Some years ago be
was employed in this city where they
were priming circulars for Chamber-
lain. He bad a deep seated cold and
terrible'coogh, and while setting np
learned
Phil Cook and a large and ferocioi
boll, ou his Lee county plantation,
figured as principals.
The ball, In qnestlnn, is said to be a
very fine registered Jersey, bat one of
the most vicious and pugnacious ani
mals to be too mi anywhere. He seem*
to be “spiling” for a fight every mo
ment of bU life, and in defference to
bis belligerent Inclinations he is given
a wide berth by the hands on the farm.
Sometime since Gea. Cook came
down from Atlanta to fpend a few
days on his farm recuperating his
wasted energies-, aud while there was
told ot the fighting inclinations which
the bull had developed during his ab
sence in attending to matters of State.
The doughty old warrior pooh-pooh
ed the stories told him about his favor
ite boll, and determined to show the
farm hands that all that was needed to
bring him back to bis wonted docility
was a little kind treatment and a lew
gentle words spoken to him.
The General, therefore, armed with
this determination, went forth to the
forty Acre lof of which the bull was
the sole occupant, and climbing ever
the “staked and rldeired” fence with
difficulty boldly advanced towards the
belligerent beast, which after regard
ing him with the most searching cari
osity for a lew moments, lowered his
head, threw some dirt over his back
with his fore hoofs, and nttsriug a few
bellows which shook the earth round
abjut, started for the General, who,
realizing that the ball regarded him as
the boldestsort of an invader, hastily
faced about and made tracks for the
fence. The boll seemed to divine the
General’s thoughts, and hoisting hi*
call in the air came sweeping after him
like a cyclone. The General realized
his danger, and making as good time
as his game leg would admit he reached
a large tree which stood in a corner ol
the fence and “slid” behind it just a»
the bull knocked a lot of bark off of it
with his butt head.
Then came about a half an hoar ot
expert dodging from the infuriated
beast, during which he displayed tho
activity of the short stop of a champion
baseball nine, but finally several of
the farm hands cams up, aud getting
the bull’s attention, the General wa>
rescued from his perilous position,
wiser if not a sadder man.
And the bnll still holds the fort.
TO Ml-1 IIEWaBD.
Glen Owen is dead!
This sad news will carry still more
sadness to the hearts of hundreds 6*
the citizens of Albany this morning.
In the omniscience of God the soul
of this young man has been called t«*
its heavenly reward and now rests
forever in the sweetness of eternal life.
The news of his death came yester
day afternoon, and was a shock to all
who knew him, and no one knew him
but to luve him.
He died at the residence of Mr. J.
H. Hall In Macon yesterday afternoon
at 3 o’clock, and his relatives! a this
city were at once notified. It was hb
request that he should be buried in
Albany and that his remains should
reft among those whom he loved to
much and who** affection he in tarn
so highly merited.
The remains will leave Macon this
morning at 10 o’clock, reaching here
this afternoon at’2:50 o’clock and will
at once be taken to the residence of
Mr. R. A. Hall. No yonng man ever
lived in Albany who was more highly
esteemed, and his untimely death is a
sore stroke to those who knew him.
Tho funeral arrangements will be
made after the arrival of the remain*
this afternoon, due notice of which
will be given in to-morrow’s News
and Advertiser.

No article that ever appeared
these columns was hailed wi;h suejj
supreme delight as that which
the News and
Underwood has been j tertiser meeting
notified by Superintendent
the Secretary 1
ed on July 1st, 1330, in vfcdch Mr. J.
C. McKe zie. the Superintendent of
the Southwestern <lir!s!on of the Cen
tral railroad pronsi«e*l to have the
Blakely Extension in fi st-doss coa
lition in thirty-three week*.
On the 3<Ni day of June of last year
Superintendent McKenzie sent for the
editor if this pap°r and voluntarily
told him of the conrempUred improve
meets that would give Aitnny a rfrst-
cla?s rotd from here to Columbia, A*a.
He staled, and his statement wa* pub
lished. that a forry-p«.ind tail .Vi»nJd
be taken frem the branch between
Macon and Columbus and replaced
with a heavier rail. The forty-pound
rail taken therefrom w*3 to ba put on
the Blakely Extension which, being
heavy enough for the traffic on that
road, would put that road in first-cias*
condition and make it a rdlroai.
But the “stringers” are ►till on this
line and no forty pound rail adorn it
instead.
J he thirty-three weeks have also
elapsed and not a lick of work has
been done as promised for the Exten
sion by Superintendent McKenzie.
The News and Advertiser does
not claim tbat Superintendent McKen
zie made a misstatement last June.
He was doubtless honest in his remarks
and he said at the time that labor wa:
scarce, but the thirty-three weeks
nave passed and nothing has been
done.
The patrons of the Blakely. Exten
sion are »iii! paying first-class rates
for tickets to ride over stringers in
stead of forty ponnd rails. It seems
'.hat the scarcity of Ubor, which pro
viso was made by cfoperintenrient Mc
Kenzie last June, has prevailed since*
then, and prevailed to such an cxien.
Shat nothing can be done.
Tho “stringers” on the Blakely. £r-
ension are a shocking travesty ou
railroads ot the nineteenth century;
this road (?) draws big dividends‘for
:he work it does, it gets first-clans
'aces for the work it does which ten
Jers the travesty on public justice all
cbe more heinous since the apology for
a railroad takes the limit of rates from
he pockets of the people and gives
very little in return.
Superintendent McKenzie was evi
dently mistaken when ‘ he said
•hat this branch of his road would be
fitted up in first-class condition in
thirty-three weeks from last Jun?. It
is a pity that Ike patrons of the
road* had their hopes raised, and *hen
had them to fall to such an alarming
depth.

For fifty or sixty years Judge Trippe
has b*«;n troubled witii a lyjjpma over
his left eye, which, while r:ercr haring

of much annoyance to him.
Last Monday, however, the Judge

The removal of tha iypoma, the

change is all for the better, as is evi
denced by the fU«-i that several ot his
most intimate ft tends barely recogniz
ed him Tuesday alter the removal of
iypoma, so yonng dH he lpok.
As stated in the cutset, the'Judge

Who was with tbe party and who i s

Hotel Kiug, the .owner cf the Ponce

retiring gentlemen In the party. He
is a tall, gray-haired ia;^n of apparent

moustache, easy address aud pleasant

derful attractions of tho Queen of
Southwest Georgia, and had not an op
portunity to drink of the health-giving
waters cf our artesian wells, but he
had quite a chat with Capt. Davis
about Albany and was very much
charmed.
This was 31 r. Flagler’s first visit to
