The City Council held its regular semi-monthly business meeting last night, His Honor, Mayor Gilbert, pre siding, and a full Board of Aldermen present. Messrs. T. N. Woolfolk and N. F. Tift appeared before Council as ad ministrators of the estate of the late Col. Nelson Tift, and laid before them a proposition for conveying to the oity the artesian well belonging to the es tate, situated just north of the city limits. They showed that the boring of the Well, laying of pipes and other expenses amounted to $B,875; that In tlm city and outside the annual in- oome from water rents wns about $1,- B00, or nearly BO per cent. 011 the in vestment. If Council would agree to furnish water to parties who should, in future, build in Arcadia, all objections to sell- fngtlie well would he removed by the present owners. This, if done, would necessitate extending the city limits to take in Arcadia, tile power aud right to the oity to do which was ex tensively discussed. Administrators also thought that it would, not be right for them to have to pay taxes on so much property, and wanted the city to exempt said prop erty from taxation, either for a certain number of years, or until it lmd been purchased by some other parties. The matter wns dually referred to the Finance Committee, to act in conjunction with the City Attorney, and report at the next regular meet ing. Tim minutes of the last meeting were read and condrined. The committee appointed at last meeting to purchase the , one-quarter acre lot just west of' the waterworks well was called on to report. Alderman I.ockett reported that he had bought said lot from Mr. F. F. Putney for $700. Purciin.se was con firmed by Council, and money ordered paid ns soon ns deeds for property were delivered. The Electric Light Coinpnny peti tioned Council not to deduct anything Jrorn their pny for the month of March, showing various reasons why the servfee was not up to the standard, Granted.

Report was accepted. Tile City Tax Assessors for 1891 showed to Council reasons why. tax assessment of Sam Farkas should be changed from $1,200 to $500. Change was ordered made. The City Tax Assessors for 1891 Messrs. P. L. Hilsman, A. P. Greer and R. H. Warren, were re-elected for 1892. Capt. J110. A. Davis petitioned Coun cil to refund eight years’ street tax, amounting to $24, which lie has paid he having been under the impression that persons were exempt at the age of 60 instead of 50. The money was ordered refunded A resolution, officially- J^ubjislH-d elsewhere in (lie Herald, was adopted giving tile Mayor and City Treasurer authority to sign their names to the waterworks and sewerage bonds. It was decided to send the City At torney to Charleston to confer with' the Walker, Evans & Cogswell Co. tlie lithographers, about golfing up the bowls nt once. A petition of W. II.

The matter wak 'referred to the Cemetery Committee. There being no other business on hand, Council adjourned. , t law 1 _ eSaEBuBjlK -r.' . Letter is Drmsf a miller County MUSICAL PROJECTS. INCREASING INTEREST IN A La BANK’S mVSICAL CIRCLES. From Wednesday's Evenino Herald. Capt. Riohard Hobbs,-in fils capaolty as Chairman of the Democratic Exec utive-Committee of the Second Con gressional district, Is in dally reoeipt of letters from different parts of the distriot on matters pertaining to the campaign. Some of these letters bring information about tlie situation in the counties from which they come, while others ask for information and advice. As Is well known, Capt. Hobbs has been severely erltioised by the Third Partyites and Stevensltes and called to account for the action taken by tlie Executive Committee at its meeting in this oity oip-tlie 21st ult., and lie and the committee have both been misrepresented from one end of the district to the other, with reference to tlie test laid down in the recommendations of the Com mittee as to who should be entitled to, vote in tlie Democratic primaries. Among the letters received by Capt. Hobbs during the last day or two one came from Mr. J. W. Cowart, a promt nent citizen and straightout Democrat of Miller county. The Herald was shown Mr. Cowart’s letter and Capt. Hobbs’s reply to it to-day, and the latter, while not intended for publi cation, seemed to be such a clear and convincing defense of the Executive Committee, and pointsoutso ileilnitely tlie only course that is left for the true Dcinoornts of tlie Second district to pursue in the present campaign, that- we asked uni! obtained permission to publish it. Albany, Ga,, May It, 1892. W. Cow nil, Ebih Colquitt, Un.: Dear Sin:—Your favor of the Otli Inst, has been duly received. We have fallen on troublous times, flnancinlly anil politically, especially the latter. The enemies of Democracy are un scrupulous; they charge us with being tyrannical and doing many tilings we never thought of doing—whereas, we are only trying our best to keep the pnrty together. Now, what lias the Executive Com mittee done? 1st. We request the peo ple to hold their priinnry elections 011 the 80th of July next. Why did we do tj)is? You all. know tlint there is a great diversity of opinion to-day on various measures—free silver, sub- trensury, control of railroads by the government, and payment of more pensions to Yankee soldiers. The people of this seotion, hr even the whole of the Southern States, cannot lay down a platform to cover them all, but the convention which will meet in Chicago to nominate a President can do so—will do so—therefore our commit tee considered Hint we had best put off our primary elections until after the Chioago convention meets, and then we pH could Bee what the Democratic platform was, and we could, with our eyes open, either be a Democrat or a Third Party man. Now, in all fair ness, let me ask you, and the men of Miller, how they are injured by wait ing until the 80th of July? I can well understand that Stevens and Third Party men would like to hold conventions and primaries now, so as to get men pledged to them for delegates, but I am not prepared to bankrupt the country and double the taxes—tp pay wagon loads of money to Yankee bummers. Are you? Are the men of Miller prepared to do so? The Third Party, the men who stand on the Ocala, Indianapolis and St. Louis platforms, do bo. You cannot separate Ocala from the others, because they were all got out by the same men and Stevens and his crowd now going over the country saying they are Ocala Democrats are playing the hypocrite —telling something they do not mean. Will you please read tills to Mr. Poole, the chairman of your meeting? If he is a true Democrat, lie certainly will see that tlie Executive Committee of this district- cannot make a plaG form for his popple. Neither should they demand that we should admit and swallow, the Ocala demands. What! Agree to pay tli,c miserable Ytinkee tlie lust dollar we have! ..(jfpl by ( i)ip Eter nal, No! The AllianeemCri of Miller county are free men; they can do as they please, blit as Abraham said that “lie and ills children would serve the Lord,” so we will remain true to De mocracy, and in the" crowd with us will be yourself and many other good men ill Miller county. Yours truly, R. Hobbs. The only irrepressible Jeffrey Hill veteran well-digger and adventurer now parades the streets la a new blue Evening Classes in liln.lc for Ike Bap. Albany is booming. Everybody Bays It, and what every body says is true, is it not? Albany has a steady growth. Not an unnatural one, but a steady, calm progressivciiesB that speaks of the solid foundation of her business en terprises. Well, other tilings beside business movements are progressing in the Artesian Oity. Musio is on a boom. This is evlnoed by the increased inter est taken now In musio for the vnrious churohes, by the good oroliestralmusio that may be had, atid last, but by no means lenst, by tlie interest shown by a few in the movement to organize a band. The boys in Albany seem to have more interest in cultivating their mu sical ability than anyone clad. Boys who are mtisicallv inclined are rife in Albany. What, an advantage to these young folks would nn evening class in musio be 1 A vocal class to meet once or twice In a week for the purpose of studying voice culture apd sight reading and for practice in chorus work, is some thing greatly to he desired. There are between fifteen and twenty boys be tween the ages of 15 and 20 who have good voices and muslenl nblllty and but need nn opportunity to give them voices Hint would he of use ill tlie choir, the chorus or tlie parlor. The boys themselves could make the necessary arrangements, nnd it seems ns though they must do so if arrange ments nre made. Does it not- seem a pity to allow suoli material to go to waste? Material of such value ns n good voice is? It certainly does. The person who will tako the matter in hand nnd provide some means of musical cultivation for those boyS'nnd young men who have no time in tlie day to spare, will be deserving of tlie heartfelt thanks of the community.

Happiness? Unb’s Sunday Luttor. The next question that this papor sprung on the publio that it desired to cultivate wns; “What is your idea of happiness?” I had sufficient curiosity to ask ft few people nbout this, and I found that tlie 'average man’s idea of happiness consisted in having just as much money as he wanted, a woman who was fond of him, a good dinner, a bright Are apd a good ofgnr. A few added some sort of wine. Most of the women simply wanted money—they seemed to think that would buy every thing. A few political enthusiasts wanted to reform the country, and a few religious ones wanted everybody to think as they did. A small hoy came nearer tlie solution than any body else, for he said what lie wanted was “a good tinie.an<l to be let' alone A good time, and to he let alone! That’s what we nil want. Tlie possi bilities for n good time, and tlie liberty to enjoy It wlicil .it comes. And the brain of Enginnd troubled itself over that question for one entire week which an American boy of 10 years answered at once. Tub way of a pj-caolh-r is lijlrd. Rev.

Their mar ried life hasn’t been the happiest, and Several days ago Jones left home and went away to let bis wife’s temper get settled.. He returned Tuesday last, but it wasn’t settled. Mrs. .Tones renewed thy fuss, and when her un happy husband arose to go' off' again, she took up a lock and struck him such a blow on tlie shoulder that it ‘was dislocated.
