DEATH OF MB. ANDERSON.
Profound sorrow again came
suddenly upon Perry last Thurs
day night, caused by the death of
Mr. Thomas J. Anderson. He was
stricken with paralysis at about 3
o’clock iri the afternoon, and at
9:10 that night death came.
All that medical wisdom and de
voted hearts coold suggest, or will
ing hands perform, availed noth
ing, and the heart was stilled in
death.
About a year ago heart trouble
brought death very near to Mr.
Anderson, and for many months
his health was exceedingly preca
rious. He began to improve how
ever, and it was thought that his
wonted health had been regained.
The bnrial took place last Satur
day morning. Six members of the
Perry Lodge of Odd Fellows, of
which order he was an honored
member, acted as pall bearers, and
at Evergreen cemetery Rov. J. C.
Brewton conducted the church ser
vice, and the Knights of Honor fol
lowed with their bnrial service. A
large number of sorrowing friends
attended these last sad rights.
Mr. Anderson was about 45 years
old, a devoted bnsband, loving, in
dulgent father, true and steadfast
friend, an honest man, a good citi
zen, his death is greatly lamented
by all who knew him.
He was a native of Pnlaski coun
ty, but had been a citizen of Perry
since 1880. About 20 years ago he
became a member of the Baptist
church at Hawkinsville, and those
who best knew him have an abid
ing hope that he has an Eternal
home in Heaven.
He leaves a wife, son, brothqjr,
and a number of other relatives to
mom n his death, aad with them
many friends sincerely sympathise.
'May the Grand Master of the
Universe afford that comfort and
consolation that human sympathy
is so entirely inadequate to give.
Mr. Anderson’s life was insnred
for $1,000 with the Knights of
Honor.
THE ELECTION FOB TREASURER
According to an order issued by
the Ordinary of Houston county,
an election for County Treasurer,
to fill the unexpired term of Mr.
W. Branson, deceased-,will be held
next Wednesday, December 23d.
The papers have been forward
ed to the several precincts, and all
arrangements for the election have
been made.
There are two candidates in the
field, Messrs. C. E. Gilbert and A.
D . Skellie, (Mr. Houser having
withdrawn,
We presume both the candidates
have bean canvassing for votes, and
any prediction as to which will win
the prize can be nothing more than
mere guess work.
Tickets have been printed, and
every voter can make his choice
and vote as he pleases.
In addition to the choice for
treasurer, this election will form
the basis of the election on the
Public School law of the county,
which will be held on the first
Tuesday in January next.
This election for treasurer will
be governed by the regulations un
der which regular elections for
county officers are held.
ALLIANCE RALLY.
The members of Stonewall Alli
ance have decided to hold an all :
day meeting at Perry on the 26£h
inst., Saturday of next week. The
meeting will be opened promptly
at 10 o’clock a. m., and it is hoped
that every menfber will be present
at that time. It is also hoped that
all will come prepared to partici
pate actively in the meeting, and
add to its interest. The chief pur
pose of the meeting is to revive the
lagging interest of alliancemen in
their order. It is apparent to all
that this must bo done, else for
lack of attendance the alliance will
cease to be in this locality.
Subjects of vital importance will
be discussed.
All alliancemen of the county
are invited to meet with ns.

! MURDER NEAR HENDERSON.
Mr. Joseph W. Fudge was bru
tally murdered at his home about
three miles below Henderson last
Friday morning.
Coroner Schilling was notified
Saturday morning, and in compa
ny with Mr. L. S. Tounsley went
down and held the inquest
There were two witnesses to the
deed, Mr. George ML Fudge,broth
er of the deceased, and John Fore
hand, colored. Their testimony be
fore the jury agrees one with the
other, and from this evidence we
gather the following facts:
Mr. George . Fudge ordered
Charles MeGow (or McGowan) to
get some corn and go to mill. The
negro went to tbb crib to measure
another bnshel of corn; and out of
this fact a difficulty grew. George
Fudge abased MeGow, and the/ne
gro drew bis knife, and upon his
refusal to pat it np, George struck
him with' a stick, or board. The
negro then struck Georgs Fudge,
and at this juncture Mr. Joe Fudge
ran between bis brother and the
negro to separate them. MeGow
then struck Mr. Joe Fadge with a
heavy piece of timber, knocking
him down. George Fudge then
went to the house to get his gun.
Mr. Joe Fudge got np, and MeGow
knocked him down again and kick
ed him. When George returned,
his brother was on the ground un
able to rise, and MeGow waB gone.
Deceased was finally able, with
the assistance of his brother, to get
up and go to the house, where he
died several hoars later, having
suffered great pain.
Dr. J. D. Coleman examined the
body at the inquest, and testified
that the sknll was fractured in two
places. *.
The jury rendered a verdict to
the effect that the killing u as mur
der, and that the deed was d°ne by
Charles MeGow.
A warrant was issued for the
murderer, and earnest efforts have
been made to capture him. . A large
number of citizens searched for
him dilligentiy Friday evening,
Saturday and Monday, bat he suc
ceeded in, evading them, and. has
not been captured.
jMr.' Fudge was a yonng map
about 25 years old, unmarried, so
ber, industrious, and held in high
esteem by all who knew him.
The - murderer is about thirty
years old, black, heavy set; about 5
feet 8 inches high, and weighs
about 160 pounds. Previous to
this difficulty, his reputation was
not especially bad.
The friends and neighbors of the
murdered man say they must and
will capture the murderer, and it
is believed by some that he will
not see the inside of a jail.
We learn that it is known in
what section McGowan is hiding.
It is to be sincerely hoped that
he will be captured, bat his cap
tors should place him in custody
of the law, and not become law
breakers themselves.

Mr. W. F. Engram died at his
home near Grovania on the 8th
inst. Mr. Engram was born, near
Perry, Ga. He was an upright and
honest man; and was considered a

BX THE JUDGE.
The number of heavy weight
hogs reported this - fall has been
nnasualiy small. The complaint
has been general that hogs have not
thrived well after being penned
for fattening. Some attributed it
to the very dry weather that pre
vailed through the early fall, while
others think that on account of the
scarcity and high price of corn
last summer, hogs were not so well
cared for as they should have
been. Two hogs were killed at
Dennard a few days since that
weighed 245 and 247. These hogs
were only eleven months old.
Two mad dogs have been killed
in this vicinity very recently. A
wise and progressive legislature
would tax this nuisance out of ex
istence. The man" who ke
dog should be held responsible for
the acts of that dog, whether it
took blood or money.
The race for Gonnty Treasurer
is not causing mach excitement
here, and the election that is to
settle the fate of the new school
law is causirg less, bat few know
ing or caring what becomes of it.
If, as is claimed by some, educa
tion decreases crime, it becomes a
question which Is the cheaper, ed
ucating the children or supporting
the courts? Observer seems to
take a prejudiced view of the law,
while Duplin supports it. I would
be glad to hear from others, for
and against, who are competent to
criticise.
Dennard will not have a Christ
mas tree this year.but the program
is to have something that will be
entertaining to both old and young.
Among the many goods things
looked for will be addresses by Mr.
A L. Dixon and Mayor Parker,
besides drills, recitations and dia-
logues by the children.
The Chinese lottery will afford
amusement for all.
