rrott, an old * and infirm
lady, was brutally choked and robbed of
over S2OO at Weston on Saturday. The

At mint n<n Detv.
Dahlonega Nugget: An old fellow sold
one of Will Tolbert’s boys some liquor the
other day made with chemicals, and
when the father got hold of the expert's
shoulders he imagined that he hnd come
in contact with a shocking machine. It
is said that this liquor is so mean that

against Mr. W. J. Butts for selling soda

through the same performance a/s long ns
Mr. Butts dispenses the refreshing bev
erage. According to the statement of Mr.
Krauss the City Court will have to try

year.
Patient Dropped Dead.
William E. Henry dropped dead at the
City Hospital in Macon Monday evening
w'hile dressing preparatory to leaving his
sick bed. He thought he was fully recov
ered from a spell of remittent fever, from
which he had been suffering several
weeks. He had iiitle warning. He was a
prosperous grocery merchant on Haw
thorne and First streets. Years ugo he
sold papers in Macon’s streets. He was
about 38 years old and unmarried.
Macon's Population.
From a reliable source it is learned
that Macon’s population by the new’ cen
sus will be about 30,000. The exact figures
are not yet attainable. If the population
reaches 30,000 this will be 7,254 more than
Macon had by the census of IS9O. Her
population at that time was 22,746. U is
estimated that the population of Bibb
county will be over 50,000. If the popula
tion of the suburbs was counted, the city
would have more than 40,000 souls. The
suburbs are really a part of Macon, for
their people do business in Macoji and
are only separated from the city by an
imaginary geographical line. Supervisor
Strickland of the Sixth District has had
the work under his supervision well ex
ecuted. It is said that he. was the first
supervisor in the state to make his re
port.
FLORIDA.

Georgia. He had an offee in Sanford and
w'as taken ill there several days ago with
bilious fever, being removed to Jackson
ville for treatment.
Beef Shipped to ( nbn.
The movfimm of beef to Cuba has been
unusually brisk for the past four months,
a shipload going from Pine Level every
ten or fifteen clays, and between times of
Shipp ng from th r a lood is taken from
west of the Myakka. For y a s the cat
t’e industry has been the sour e of mon
ey supply for that section, but oranges
are rapidly coming to he front and bid
f i r quite <arly to overshadow all other
ir.dua ries.
A Thriving Frnit Crop.
The fruit crop that has been so abun
dant this season around Lemon City
etill continues. First came the cherries,
then paw-paws, soon followed by pineap
ples and mangoes. All were very abun
dant. The growers received good prices
for their pines. A few mangoes were
shipped, as trials, to the North. Another
year the demand will be larger. Now
the guavas are in season and abundant,
and prices paid are excellent.
Nature’n Sit** for Capital.
Gainesville Sun: The Madison Recorder
Is making a strong fight in favor of the
retention of the capital at Tallahassee.
The Recorder, however, plainly indicates
that w'hile Tallahass e is its choice for
the capital, it has a friendly feeling for
Gainesville. It Is by no means certain
that the capital will be token from Tal
lahassee, but in the event of its removal
we think now, as we l ave ever thought,
that it will come to Gainesville, where
nature intended it should be.
Another Capital Candidate.
Eumls Lake Region: Frank Jones of
New Hampshire, who has large real es
tate interests in and around Tavares, it
is rumored will soon boom our county
e at for the* capital r.f th* state. It Is
uleged t> at he las half a million for the
purpose. The people of Tavares are great
ly exci ed ov<r the news. We have been
expecting sc mething of the kind, ard have
ciiscreet’y “held our hard' f;>r develop
ments. The columns of the Tavares news
papers will now bf? scanned with much in

who will have the spreading of t he barrel.

WILL MEET THE ALLIES.
Officially Stated China Will Confer
With the Leaders.
Washington, Aug. 15.—The statement j
was made to-night by reliable authority 1
that the Pekin government would desig- j
nate some high official, possibly Cheng, I
to meet the commanders of the allied ar- \
mies at Tung Chow and agree with them j
on seme way for the safe conduct of the
legationers here from the capital. Informa
tion to this effect was received here to
day.
It is not unlikely that the meeting has
already taken place, if Gen. Chaffee has
pushed on to Tung Chow. This proposi
tion of the Pekin government may be on
important feature of the Conger dispatch
which the officials refuse to give out.

MARINE, INTELLIGENCE.
Matter., of Interest to Shipping Men
Generally,
Efforts are being marie to load and sail
the Belgian steamship Clematis as soon as
possible. With the work which is being
done it is likely she will finish loading in
record-breaking time, and get away from
Savannah in time to keep up the good
record she has established since leaving
her builders. Considerable Interest Is
still felt in lehe movements of the vessel.
Her owners are no doubt expecting her
to show up at her destination in qui-k
time, and may not be disappointed. The
Clematis is understood lo carry between
18.000 and 20,0c*) casks of spiriis In casks.
She is not a tank steamer. She is eigh
teen feet longer than the Iris, and five
feet wider.
The bark Oscar. Norwegian, went to sea
yesterday. She is bound for Harburg
with a cargo of naval stores.
The British steamship Bombard arrived
