The
gramme
The April term of 'Houston Su
perior Com t was convened at about
10 o’clock last Monday morning,
Judge A. L. Miller presiding.
The Judge, Solicitor Genera]
Felton, Stenographer Barnes, a
ndmber of attorneys from Macon
and Fort Valley, witnesses and
parties to suits, were brought to
Perryou a special train.
The grand jury was empaneled,
and Mr. AY..D. Croom was chosen
foreman.. Then J udge Miller de
livered a most excellent charge,
plain ai)d practical. He called spe
cial attention to the- duty devolv
ing upon the jury concerning coun
ty affairs, emphasizing the fact
that any failure on the part of offi
cials should be brought to his at
tention by presentment. The rep
rehensible practice of plowing into
the public roads should be stopped,
he said, and would be if the guilty
parties were reported to the court.
The traverse jurors were then
empaneled, And the first, case on-
the civil docket was .called for trial
at about 11 o’clock. This caseand
the next were dismissed, and a ju
ry for the trial of the t hird case on
the docket was secured. The trial
of this case consumed .the greater
portion of the day, though several
others were dismissed, settled or
postponed, while the~~jury was iu
the room. In this case there was
mistrial, Tuesday morning,
the jury having been locked up all
night.
The case of Johp Gordon vs. the
mayor ancl aldermen of Perry was
called up at about 9 o’clock Tues
day morning, It will be remem
bered that this case came up on a
bill of injunction to prevent the
opening of a street across land held
under enclosure by Mr. Gordon.
After the evidence was submitted,
the case Was settled,, the proposi
tion coming from Mr. Gordon’s at
torney’s. Mr. Gordon pays the
town $20, and also pays costs of
the|trial,and retains possession and
use of the land claimed as a street
by the town authorities.
In a case tried Tuesday, the jury
rendered a verdict of $50 in favor
of a negro man who .had been put
off the Georgia Southern railroad.
The negro didn’t have a ticket, and
refused to pay the additional 1
cent a mile demanded when a pas
senger fails to get a ticket. How
ever, the negro agreed to pay when
the train had been Atopffed, but he
was put off anyhow, perhaps on ac
count of the iusalting language
used to the conductor.
Though comparatively few cases
have been placed before a jury so
far, a large nnmber have been dis
posed of.
The criminal docket will proba
bly be taken up to-day (Thurs
day).
The grand jury will probably
conclude its business and adjourn
to-morrow. Probably about fifty
presentments have been consider
ed, including a nnmber of cases
where the accused had been bound
over by the County Judge.
Judge Boynton wil Ipreside two
or three days next week, when
cases in which Jnclge Miller is dis
qualified will be tried.
Judge Miller has refused to al
low witnesses, jurors, parties to
cases or lawyers, to be called, and
on Monday afternoon two jurors
were, fined for being tardy.
The Library Concert.
In accord with the announce
ment previously made, there was
a concert and festival in Library
Hall last Tuesday night.
At an early hour every sent in
the hall was occupied, and stand
ing room was at a premium.
The programme had been ar
ranged by the ladies of tlie library
board of directors, arid it consisted
of vocal and instrumental mnsic,
solos, duetts, trios, piano mnsic,
several selections by the' Per-y
string band, recitations, a diologue,
etc..
Some excellent musical talent
was most agreeably displayed, and
the entire programme was deci
dedly well rendered. The large
audience frequently gave evidence
of the pleasure afforded.
After the conclusion of the con
cert, ice cream and cake was
served to all who desired it,, and
the entire-stock was sold.
By all who attended the affair
was voted a decided success. It
was for benefit of tke Perry Pub
lic Library, and about $52 was re
alized.
An Aged Lady Buried at Perry.
Mrs. Lavinia King, widow of
Rev. Geraldus'King who died at
Perry in 1864, was buried in Ev
ergreen cemetery last Tuesday.
She died at the home of her son-
in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs.
F. T. Downs, in Hawkinsviile.
She was S4 years old on the 4th
day of last March, had been a con
sistent member of the Methodist
church the greater portion of her
]if e _a Christian in word and deed..
She was the mother of Messrs.
Charlie and Joseph King,of Hawk-
iusvijle, Mrs. G. AV. Maddox, of
Cartersville, Mrs. F. T. Downs, of
Hawkinsviile, and grandmother of
Jnd^e Emory Speer, of Macon.
A°good woman has gone to her
reward.

his shadow may never grow less.
The rain stepped in to annul the
pleasure of the trip, but Mr. AVal-
lace took charge of the party and
not only sheltered them from the
rain, but succeeded in entertain
ing them very pleasantly with a
show of his dairy farih aud mild
eyed Jerseys; and to make his cap
tivation .of the party complete,
called into requisition the various
teams of his place and transported
safely to their homes the entire

gentleman for the pleasures of
their visit, notwithstanding the un

Judge A. S. Giles has formed a
law partnership at Macon. As his
partners are unknown to ns, we
copy the following from the Maeon
Evening News. Judge Giles is
too well known to our readers to
need commetfnatiou from us:
“Hou. Joe. W. Preston, Judge
A. S. Giles and Mr. Hope Polbill
have formed a partnership for the
practice of law They make a
strong aud popular team. Colonel
Pr.eston recently moved here from
Monticello. He was appointed by
Governor Smith iu 1873, and again
by Governor Colquitt iu 1S17, so
licitor general of his circuit, which
position he filled witli great ability.
He was elected to the Georgia Sen
ate in 1878-79, and was chairman
of' the joint committee to investi-
gaite the signing of the Northeast
ern railroad bonds by Governor
Colquitt. In 1887 he was appoint
ed by President Cleveland to take
charge of Indian reservation lauds
iu California, resigning upon the
election of President Harrison,and
returned, to his home at Mcnticel-
lo. He has been frequently spo
ken of as a good man to send to
congress from the sixth district.

EY THE BOSS.
The genera] health of this sec
tion is good.
The farmers are still wishing
for favorable weather that will al
low them to work.
Very little cotton has been plant-
edyin this section, but much will
bo planted.this week by the com
mon farmers, unless the .ground
remains frozen so they can’t work.
Mr. J. A. Day has planted his
gourd farm, and'is ready to cor
respond with aDy good firm con
cerning the sale of the gourds.
A'few of our melon farmers who
supply the market with culls and
rotten-ends have planted,-But the
successful farmers will plant the
last of this week.
The acreage devoted to cotton iu
this community is much less than
it lias been for'several years,
We are glad to note that . the
health of Mr. J. N. Barker is much
improved since it has quit raining
and turned cold. Mr. Barker
can’t stand much heat
Mr. H. Stafford and family vis
ited relatives at Bonaire last Sup-
day.
Mr. J. N. Barker was shivering
arouqd onr section last Sunday
complaining of being half frozen,
and “people ought to bo done
planting cotton.”
Mr. S. T. Wheeless visited
friends at Bonaire last Sunday
with all the coats on he could pos
sibly get in. My sympathies were
aroused; so I bad a big fire made
and got Messrs. B. and W. warm.
Then I told the “old lady” to cook
some hard-head cabbage for din
ner, as 1 knew they would be
something new to onr guests; and
I concluded the. pot-liquor would
probably be a little stimulating, as'
had no .other kind on hand. I
never take such things so hard as
some do, aud I have felt good all
the week because I served these
gentlemen so well in their awtnl
condition. - . “
Mr. R. G. Watson is very ill.
ancf is the worst looking man I ev
er saw, this cold, windy weather.
We hope he. will look better in a
short while. -

^ REPORTED BY JOSH.
Good stands of corn reported,
where it was not planted too early.
Gardens are improving rapidly,
especially that of onr bachelor
friead, J. T. Miller.
S. H. Lewis has the best patch
of oats 1 have seen anywhere this
year.
Several farmers hereabout have
planted their melon crops this
week.
No cotton has been planted in
this community yet, but I hear of
several farmers who expect to
commence Monday, the 6th itist.
The bird bunt on Elberta Fruit
Farm last Friday afforded much
sport and enjoyment. The shoot-
ng began at about daylight at' a
rapid rate. About 400 birds were
killed. Walter Lewis headed the
list,' as usual, with 64, and J A:
Smith stood foot with a few ‘crip
pled birds that he caught in the
woods after the hunt.
Walter Watson, W. C. Lewis, J.
T. Walker, H. S. and G. B. Feagiu
made a flying visit to Macon on
Wednesday, the 1st day of April;
but all returned at noon.
The schedule on the G. S. & F.
railroad is very convenient for this
section, as we can get breakfast
before leaving for Macon, and re
turn at dinner time.
Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Lewis at
tended the union meeting at -Fel
lowship church, near Powersville,
on Saturday and Sunday, March
28 and 29. They spent Saturday
night with Mr. and Mrs.- R. M.
English, their brother-in-law and
sister, in Powersville.
TiiP wenther is nearly at freez
ing point to-day, and Josh and
others are sorry that they planted
melons.so soon.'
