A large audience assembled in the
Opera Bouse last night to witness
the performance of George Wilson’s
Minstrels.
The hell was full, and the gallery
was packed.
Before the performance opened n
very offensive odor tilled the hall, and
in the rear of the hall it was so dense
that it seemed to one’s olfactories that
it was thick enough to slice with a
knife and lay it out in smooth-cut
seotions.
It was Florida beans.
IVhnt are Florida beans?
To the uninitiated we will state that
they are something awful. There are
one or two bushes of them in Albany.
The bush bears a psetty flower, but
after the flower comes a pod of beaus,
and one of these beans can offend a
whole household if chewed up nml the
saliva expectorated. The expectora
tion and breath from one who ohews
up one of these Florida beans is worse
than the fumes from a skunk. The
whole atmosphere around becomes im
pregnated with an indescribable and
highly offensive and siukening odor,
and in a close room or hall it is almost
unbearable.
Well, somebody chewed Florida
bonus in the Opera House last night,
and offended the whole audience..
Chief of Police Westbrook “tumbled
to the racket" in a minute, and at
once instituted a thorough investiga
tion, The result of Ills scar-liing in
vestigation seemed to tlx the offense
on Will McClellan, and he was ar
rested and carried from the Opera
House to the guard house.
The people in the audience were
naturally very indignant, and the
prompt and determined aution upon
the part of Chief Westbrook in the
matter was universally commended,
and, no doubt, saved the offender from
rough treatment at the hands of gen
tlemen who carried ladles to the hall.
The Chief obtained what he consid
ered positive proof agrinst Mr. Mc
Clellan, and hustled him off to the
guard house. At the present writing
McClellan is still in durance vile,
though an effort is being made to bail
him out.
When lie oomes before Mayor Gil
bert he will be apt to get the full limit
of the oity ordinances if the case that
stands against him is oleariy proven.

There wss quite a fire In Arlington
early this morning.
At8o’clook it was discovered that
the Scarborough Hotel of tills-place
was in flameB and was rapidly being
consumed. Nothing could be done to
save the building and it was burned
entirely to the gronnd, the furniture
and everything being totally destroy
ed.
There were only one or two transi
ent guests in the bouse at tbe time,
and they escaped all right enough
without serious loss.
The hotel was the property of Mr.
H. F. Scarborough who'has run it for
a number of years. It was fully in
sured, however, the amount of insur
ance being stated at $8,000.
The lire is thought to bo of Inoendi

who is suapeoted, nor was any cause
given as to why the lire was thought
to be tbe work of an incendiary.
This is quite a loss to Arlington.

From Thurfllnv'fl KVKNISti IlKHALl).

for some time, been looking forward.
At the residence of Mr. J. IV. Wal
ters, on Jefferson street, were gather

intimate friends of the contracting
parties, Miss May Davis and Mr. WAV.
Face, to witness the performance of
the ceremony which should mnke them

The pnrlor, where the cremony was
to be performed, wns beautifully deo-
ornteil with festoons 6t Mexican roses,
ferns, bannnn plants and palins of va
rious kinds. Suspended Just nbove
where the bride and groom were to
stnnd, were two hearts intertwined,of
white and red dnhlias, above which
was tied a lovers knut in a white satin
bow.
At H o'clock the groom arrived with
his best mail, Judge Sam Smith. The

The short, beautiful and Impressive

The officials of the several roads en
tering Albany, for whose use the new
Uulon passenger depot was built,met in
tl|e oity this morning, and the meeting
resulted in probably the last aotion of
any importance that the rands will
take before the uccupamiy of the de
pot.
Superintendent Geo. W. Haines rep
resented the B. & W., Mr. Ceoll Qab-
bet the Columbus Southern, Mr. E. N.
Clark the S. A. M., Division Superin
tendent Epperson the Central, and
Assistant Superintendent A. A.
Avellhe theS,F. & W.
The meeting was held in the new
building, and was short, but strictly
business like and to the point. The
B. & W. and S., F. & IV. tracks have
already been laid, and the representa
tives of the other roads have agreed to
begin laying theirs Immediately.
Superintendent R. G. Fleming, of the
8., F. & w., holds the keys to the de
pot, nnd the work of putting in new
furniture will commence nt once, The
building will be refurnished through
out.
Everybody is glad to hear this piece
of news, nnd it Is thought Hint trains
will be running regularly to the new
depot by not Inter than the first of
November._
A DENOtintm KAI.LV.
Since it has been deoided by all the
roads to aocept the new depot they
have been very slow about making
preparations to occupy it.
The 8., F. & IV. already had a track
up to the building, and the B. & IV. is
the only road that has made any move
towards laying one. The Cordele and
Columbus Southern roads will prob
ably use the same track.
The people are not exactly satisfied
with the delay on the port of tlio rail
roads. Mayor Gilbert thinks they
ought to hasten the work, ns it has
now been delayed by them long
enough, and says that if it is not done
shortly another appeal will be made to
the Railroad Commission with a view
to having things hustled a little.
The people are tired of using a barn
for a passenger depot, nnd they are
going to assert their rights.
For Folks TVilh Cracked Chinn.

China may be mended so strong that
it will never break again in tbe same
place. Make a thick solution of gum
arabic and water, and stir in some
plaster of Paris until the paste is very
thick; apply it with a brush to the
edges of the tqoken china and set them
carefully together, tie a string around
them and set away for three days.

The other night when Mr. Kuhns
took a pliotograrli of Messrs. Hofmayer
& Jones’ store, he failed to see the re
flection of Mr. Steele’s furniture sign
across on the window. When he had
developed the negative, there was the
furniture sign in full view right on
the decorated window to where it had
been reflected from across the street.
Mr. Kuhns will now have to try it
again.

Cbattahootchee Valley Exposition,and
oalled at the Hebald office Inst even
ing.
The coming Exposition at Colum
bus Is going to eolipse all its prede
cessors, and promises to be one of the
greatest 1 expositions ever held in the
South. : '
Special rates ' have been arranged
with all tbe railroads, and the people
of .Albany and all along tbe' line of tbe
Columbus Southern will have the ben-
efltuf an unusually liberal rate. Round-
trip tickets will be given for one fare
during the Exposition, and twice a
week found-trip tickets will be issued
at 1 cent a mile. Thla liberal rate will
no doubt carry large crowds to Co
lumbus.
The Exposition opens on Ootober SB,
and continues until November 5.
An Able Defence.
The following excellent defense was
made to an aotion by a lawyer 1 “There
are three points in the case,-may it
please Your Honor," said the defend
ants counsel. “In the first plaoe, w.e
oontend that the kettle was oraeked
when we borrowed it; seoondly,. that
it was whole when we returned it, and
thirdly, that we never bad it’.”'
The Bnralnr Forget Bemeihlnc.
Hearing a noise at night, Jones de
scends with a lighted candle and dis
covers a burglar esoaping with a foil
saok.
“Hallo!" he cries, “come baok you!”
“Eh, what?” returns the burglar.
“Ab, yes, the silver candlestick. Per
mit me.” He takes it from tbe hand of
the astonished Jones. “Ten thousand
thanks 1 Have I forgotten anything
else?”

From Ttftiidny’s Kvimlnu Herald.
There occurred last night at Wil
liamsburg, a small station on the
Blnkely Extension road, one of the
most horrible tragedies that has ever
darkened the annals of Southwest
Georgia.
And the victim is no other than Mr.
J. N. Prioe, whose body now lies cold
nml lifeless In his grlef-strloken home.
All the business men of Albany
know Jim Prioe, nnd lie lias numbers
of friends here who will be pained nnd
shocked to learn of Ills untimely death.
From reports that reached the city
tills morning, tlio Hebald learned
tlint tlio tragedy happened ns follows:
Soon after Biipper last night Mr.
Prioe was in his store, engaged In
waiting on a Negro customer, no
other parties being present. Suddenly
the loud report of a shotgun rang out,
a cloud of smoke flew ill the dgor, nnd
Mr. Price fall heavily to the floor,
bntliod in a pool of his own blood. A
number of parties quickly gathered,
hut-investigation showed Mr. Prlco to
bo dend, his head nml body having re
ceived a full load of buckshot.
Tlio Negro oould tell nothing, nnd
sold he saw no one when the shot was
llred. There is 110 clue to the identity
of the murdorer, ns the dead mnn wns
ilot. known to have any bitter enemies.
The community is greatly excited,
and n pack of blood hounds Inis been
telegraphed for to trail the murderer.
The murder wns n most cowardly
nnd oruelotie, and justice should leave
no stone unturned to bring Us perpe
trator to account. The IIxnAi.D cer
tainly hopes that such will be the case,
nnd all Albany doubtless echoes Its
sentiment.
