A CJDANCE TO GET JURY AND (STREET EXEMPTION. Deputy Nhcriff Godwin line a Wnr Time Acreating a I.ee Connt, Niir*. At the Amur Time V.u Tan Help the Albnur Huanla, ae Pay Member, but ae Rrgnlnr Uuilee are Required. Under th. State law fifteen jury ex emptions, and along with them ex emptions from all street duties and taxes are allowed each military com pany in the State. These exemptions are nt the dis posal of the companies, when they find it neoesBary to sell them, and they are allowed to charge $26 each. This en rolls nu appllonnt ns a special pay 'member of the company from which he purchases the exemption, but none of tho duties of the regular members are required of him. lie becomes nu honorary member, so to speak, and is furnished with a certificate by the company, which exempts him from jury and street duty. Many a man is ready and willing tp pay $26 for suoh exem ptlons,and the op portunity is offered now. The Albany Guards have a number of them to dis pose of, and by purchasing one you can aid the Guards, who arc in need of funds just at present to settle up their past indebtedness incurred inpurchns ing uniforms, etc., and nt the same time you can obtain the exemption that many men so ardently desire. Now that it appears that the volun teer lire company is about on its Inst legs, this is an oppportunity which should not be overlooked. Captain Wooten will furnish tho certificates of exemption on application, nnd the payment of $26. This will entitle the purchaser to exemption from jury and street duty for one yenr from dnte of issuance. This is a rnro opportunity, and no doubt there will be u number of oitizens who will desire to take ad vantage uf it. Death .( !»ra. IV. M. IVnllen. From Monday's Evgiiuik Herald. Mrs. W. S. Walton, whose illness with pneumonia wus mentioned sev eral times In these columns last week, died at about 12 o’clock on Saturday night. Her condition Imd been very critical for four or five days previous to her death, but the attending physi cians and faithful nurses never "lost hope. All that medical skill could avail anti that loving hands could do, however, were ill vain. The dread disease had claimed.its victim, and the life of the sufferer went -out at the hour of midnight. The funeral took place from the Baptist phurch yesterday afternoon, and the remains were laid to rest in Oakviuw c-inetery. The church was filled with the friend, and acquaint ances of Hie deceased nnd of those who mourned. The funeral service was conducted by the Rev. E. B. Carroll, and was appropriate and impressive. The pall bearers were: Capt. J. T. Hester, Mr. E. G. Williams, Mr. H. K. Agar, Mr. I). B. Hartsfleld/Mr. J. YV. Waitera nnd Mr. A. P. Vason. Mrs. Walton was loved by all who knew her. She was an exemplary Chris tian woman, a faithful wife nnd moth er, and possessed a gentle, sunshiny disposition that made hern general fa vorite throughinit a large family con nection and acquaintanceship. Among those who knew her best as a faithful friend and loved her most were Mrs. G. M. Bacon, of DeWitt, and Mrs. Merrel Callaway, of Amerious, and when they learned that she was dan gerously ill these loving friends left their homes and came to her sick bed side, there to minister every to her want. And theso faithful ones re mained with her to the last. Among the relatives who came from a distance to be with Mrs. YValton in her last illness wer f e a brother and sis ter, Mr. J. X'. ’ Callaway and Mrs Lamar, of Alabama. Mrs. Walton’s maiden name was Mjss Mildred Callaway, and she had been married about thirty years at the time of her death. She leaves a heart broken husband and three sons, who have the sympqthy of title entire com munity in their great bereavement. Don’t Like the Deiecliren. Speaking of the case of J. Davis Hook, who is now inthe Blakely jail under the charge of the murder of old man Sam YVilson, at Arlington, the Blakely Observer justly disparages the idea that Hook should be held for mur der on the say-so of the detectives, without good corroborative testimony. The Observer says: “J. D. Hook, the young man who was arrested last week in; Albany, for the murder of S. J. Wilson, in Arling ton a few weeks back, will have a pre liminary hearing on the 8th proximo. We are averse to trying criminal cases in newspapers, especially as in this case, we are ignorant of thetestfmony the deteotives propose to show, but such men as Col. H, C. Sheffield, J. W. Calhoun and others of like character, so we are informed, were present at the inquest when Hook was examined and was not held. To tell the truth, we can’t abide detectives, no bow, and it should take strong corroborative testimony with that of the deteotives to bind a man over,”' , 41;..; V. From Momlny's Kvemnir Ilcralil. Deputy Sheriff Win. Godwin went up to the Long place, in Lee county, to arrest a Negro named Sam Heagan to-day, and had a lively time. The Negro was charged with cheat ing and swindling, having mortgaged some property to Mr. L. 0. Plonsky, of this city, that did not belong to him. Mr. Plonsky, who sworo out tile warrant, accompanied Mr. Godwin when lie went to make the arrest to day, and pointed out Sam Reagan to him, Tlie officer and his oompanion readied the Long place just before 12 o’clock, and pretty soon the man they wanted came riding in from the field onn mule. “Stop there, Sam, I want you!” com manded Mr.Godwin. But Sam didn’t stop. Ho rode right along toward the lot. “Stop, there, I Bay; I’ve got a war rant ior you,” ngnin commanded the officer. “YValt till I go and put up my mule, an’ I’ll be back dis er way tcrrcokly,” said Sam, still riding on. “No, sir, you’ll stop now," replied the officer, nnd at the same time he ran up to the Negro and caught hold of him. Sam slid off his mule on the op posite side from Mr.Godwin and started to run. Mr. Godwin soon had hold of him again, however, but found him rather hard to handle. Tho Negro struok Mr. Godwin In the breast, and eontinued to run. Mr. Godwin never relaxed his hold, however, and he drew his pistol ns soon ns the Negro struok him. Mr. Godwin fired his pistol three times and finally frightened the Negro into submission, but not until he had had a very lively scrimmage with him. Mr. Godwin says he didn’t try to hit the Negro, hut took particular pains to shoot downward and'to one side of him. He brought the prisoner to town and lodged him In jail. WITH THE AtlAIlEItlY. 1 Hie Insolence Brings Upon Him n Me- vers Drubbing. • From Mondny’B Evening Herald. This morning about 8 o’olook, out at the Albany Fertilizer Company’s fao- tory, Mr. C. P. Kitchens, the regulnr night superintendent nnd watohman, became involved in a difficulty with a Negro employe of the factory, Aaron Roy by name, and Aaron is now in rather a “bunged up” condition. The darky was employed In the fac tory as a fireman, and his duty was to see that a certain amount of fire was kept burning in the furnace, and that the steam wai always up to a' certain point. Mr. Kitchens, while going his regulnr rounds, noticed that the steam was not up where it should be, and di rented Roy to put more wood in the furnace. After considerable grum bling the order was partly oomplied with, but Mr. Kitohens thought the quantity of wood put in Insufficient, and so told Roy, who blankly refused, in an insolent and prufnne manner, to open the furnace door again. Forbearance had here eeaBed to be a virtue, with Air. Kitohens, nnd he struok the darky several hard lioks In the faoe and on the head, badly bruis ing Bnd swelling his features. He was brought into the city about 0 o’clock, and Imd his bruises bnndnged, nnd says he will swear out a warrant against Mr. Kitohens, charging him with assault and battery. A ClIRIOl'S DIHCOVERV. ABOUT CHAUTAUQUA. The Lund Around Alban. Ones n Ren Bench* It i» l-'lnurinhinn, Me Mays Fret, Fll«- pnirlck. / From Su-i'rdaj'n Krasina Haiui.n A IIf.iiald reporter met Prof. Z. 1. Fitzpatrick on tile street, this morn ing, and had a pleasant olmt with him about tlie Albany Academy. “Tlie school is in a .flourishing con dition,” snid Prof; Fitzpatrick, “and prospects were never brighter. YY'c have between 170 and 180 pupils en rolled, but the attendanoe has not been so large tCs that of late, on account of the severe weather we have had, and the consequent illness among the school children. The attendance has been about ten to fifteen per cent, less than the number of pupils enrolled. The rooms are all full, however, and the work is going right along Vithout a break." “How will the new require ment in regard to history affect you?” was asked. “It will have no effeot upon us what ever, for we have always taught his tory in the Academy in those classes whloh were high enough to warrant it. Consequently no ohanges will be neo- essary so far as the Academy is con cerned. “Yon may say also’” said Prof, Fitz patrick,” that we have employed, Miss Mamie Brosnan to teach in tho place of Mies Maria Davis until she fully re covers. Miss Davis has been.quite ill and will not be able to teach again for a month or more yet. She has been a good, faithful teacher, and we regret to lose her services even for that time. Blit Miss Brosnan will make an effi cient teacher, and we are fortunate in securing her services.” There are a number of boys in tho Academy who are now being prepared for college. Several of them will go off to Universities in the fall. - >: .—H ' peajh’s Deluge. ) Prof. Bunn, the well-known school actier at Morgan, Calhoun county, 'die#; Yisterday, and his ’remains passed throiigh the city to-day en route to Cedartown fob interment.- YV. A. Broadaway died at his Lome in llardup, Baker county, on. Saturday night, after a short Illness with pneumonia. Mr, Broadaway was a very old man, and was Well known throughout this section. He was the father of Mr. YV. A. Broadaway of this city and had many friend, and ac quaintances here who will be pained at the news of his death. Goon property in Albany is not al lowed to lie idle long. The houses be longing to Mr. J. L.

From Saturday’* Evkninq Her ami,, In digging the sewer ditches on Pine street and in'other places, ourl- ous rook formations have been un earthed wliiclrgo to prove the asser tions of geologists that toons of ages ago, in some past geological period, this part of Georgia was a part of the sea, and was built .up by gradual de posits of sediment from rivers and other sources. These rooks are of the limestone variety and contain fossils of numer ous and various kinds of sea shells. In these fossils, the shells, whloh have been dissolved out of water oontaining carbonio acid gas in solution, have not been replaced in any Instance by other deposits of limestone, and the result is apparently a lot of matrices In the limestone in whloh shells were molded and removed. And in part this Is true. The shells were left there when'this part of tlie oountry was a sen beach, were oovered over by sediments, and they being of a softer limestone than that in whloh they embeded, were gradually dis solved out by a solution of oarbonlo sold in water, and the perfeot impres sion of varioui varieties of shell is left. Any number of there peculiar fos sils oan be found along the line of the sewer on Pine street, especially near the river, and all of it is evidence that the land which we are now living on has been reclaimed from the sea whioh ages and ages ago extended far inland. TUB VACANT SEAT. The following Washington gossip in regard to the seat made vaoant by the death of Justice Lamar is going the rounds: The fact that Justioe Lamar was the only Southerner on the benoh would be enough of itself, it is believed, to prevent the nomination of any North ern man from being confirmed, so that the President’s choice seems to be lim ited to tlie South. He is disposed, if he can, to promote from the Girouit or District bench to the Supreme Court, and therefore tlie names of Circuit Judges Nathan Goff, of West Virginia, and Don A. Pardee, of Louisiana, and District Judges Emory Speer, of Geor gia, and MoEnery, of Louisiana, are mentioned as the Southern Republi cans most likely to be considered, Paijdee being a personal friend of Mr. Harrison. It Is believed, however, that the President will soon discover that lie cannot get a Republican, and in that event he will nominate Judge Japkson, who is personally known and liked by him.

The farmers of this section are get ting ready rapidly for spring planting jnst as soon as all danger from frqst Is past. Plantations in every direction are being plowed and worked, and everything points to the faot that the coming season will be a prosperous one with the farmers, it they can con spire so as to maintain cotton at its present figures. A glance over the country shows that more land Is toeing prepared for oorn planting this year than last, and many of the farmers of this seotion have come to the con clusion that it is better to raise their own hogs than to buy them of Western combines and trusts. prepare plumbing, and have' special for making connections be- illlnga and the. waterworks systems.

THE I.IST OF SPEAKERS AVIS.I, BE HARO TO BEAT. A Fine School of Fhrelcal (Inllure—The Tencheni’ Couutr Institute— One Fnre en nil the Bnllronde. From Friday's Evening Herald, “I am busy now making out a list of speakers and extending them invi tations to be here during Chautauqun •week,” said Mr. J. 8. Davis, president of the Board of Directors to a Herald reporter this morning. “You may say,” continued Mr. Dnvis, ■'that the speakers will be the best that can possibly be prooured for the occa sion. All of them havo been selehted and invitations extended them, and so far a majority of them have accepted, no refusals having been reoeived. The list oomprlses some of the brightest and ablest speakers both North and South, and all together it will be an aggregation of talent buoIi as has never before been collected at any one As sembly in this seotion of tho oountry.” Mr. Davis also spoke of tho musical department, whloh will be under the direct oliarge of Dr, H. R. Palmer, of New York City, whloh is tantamount to saying that it will be a grand buo- ce8s. Dr. Palmer has imd charge of this department at the Albany Clinu- tauqua before, and thoso who were un der him know just what his abilities are, and what he can make of it. Tiio physical culture department will be next to perfect. Dr. YV. G. Anderson, who is an expert in hygiene and nnatomy, will linve oliarge of tills department hero during OhnutauquA week. He is an expert in his line, be ing the physloal culture director of Yale College, whloh institution is known to rank second to none in the physloal training and development whioh its students receive. COUNTY TEACHERS’ INSTITUTE. As is well known the County Teach ers’ Institute will be held here during Chautauqua week, and State School Commissioner 8. D, Rradwell, under whose direot charge the Institute will be, tins announced his intention of having twenty or more counties rep resented here instead of having separ ate institutes in eaoli of these oounties as is usual in other partB of the State. Prof. Frances YV. Parker, the lead ing professor In pedagogics in the United States, will be here and will assist in the training and instruction whioh these 200 to 260 teachers will re ceive, and Dr. Anderson will Instruct them in the prlnolpal methods of physical oulture, suoh as oan be made applicable to the common sohools of the State. Of course the common sohools are not supplied with gymna siums, but there are methods of gym nastic drill, whioh can be used outside of a gymnasium, whloh, if persisted in, are known to bring about a better result in physical developments even than oan be obtained in a gymnasium. State Sohool Commissioner Brad- well will bo in attendance during the entire week, and the teachers depart- mentwill be direotly under his super vision. together with the county school commissioners he will select a committee of experts in all . the branobes required by law in the com mon sohools of the State, and this committee added to those to be furnished by the Chautauqua will make a faculty finer than any that ca$i be found id any normal school in the Unite# States. Tho instruction thus furn ished tho great number of teaohers whioh will meet here during that week will be far superior to anything of the kind ever before introduced in the South, and the amount of thorough instruction put into one week by the nbic corps of professors and Instruc tors, will be equivalent to a training of several months under other condi tions. , SOME CHAUTAUQUA NOTES. —The surrounding counties will be represented by from 200 to 260 school teachers here during Chautauqua week. —As last year, the rallroada will all give reduced rates, probably of one fare for the round trip for tlie week, with several days’ extension, allowing for time eomlng and going. —During the week the hotels and boarding houses of the city will be very liberal in their rates, and they will extend low rates, especially to the sohool teaohers who will gather here at that time. —Everybody is preparing to make this one of the grandest oceasions in the history ,o| Albany.
