THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION: TUESDAY, APRIL 25, TSSA ARTESIAN ALBANY. ITS ’WELL, ITS WATER WORK. All About Albany—The Southern Mutual I'iro Iniu- ranoo Com tony of Atheno—Senator Brown and Dli Brcord ma an Offloe Be. signer — Uis Seiiona IUneoa. Special Corroepondence ot The Constitution. Albany, Ga., April 13.—“I’ll call by in an hour and take you round to see the well,” said the Hon. Mr. Westbrook, as we stopped for dinner at the Barnes house In this charming city. "I’ve Just come," said Colonel Suggs Jones, a half hour later, "to drive you round to see the well.” "I’d like to take you round to see the well, if you have the time,” said Joe Davis, Jumping from his buggy, as we started in to dinner. "The omnibus will be at the door," said Colonel Barnes, aa we finished a most excellent dinner, “and you might like to ride round and see the well.” It’s an artesian well! It is the first confirmation of the hope induced by Colouel Fort’s experiment of which I wrote fully some months ago, that wells might be secured all through southwest Georgia. For yean this had been denied, and the lack of pure water was thucurseof a great and rich sec tion. Attempt after attempt had been made and all bad failed. Scientific men had written treatises to prove that puro water could not be bad by bar ing. Colonel John P. Fort—to his lasting honor be it said—in the face of precedent and precept, went to work, and after boring over 500 feet struck a stream of pure water that gushed to the earth’s sur face—as grateful to the eyes of thousands as the waters that brokofrom the rock in the desert when it was smitten by the rod of the prophet. Albany was the first city to follow Colonel Fort She made a failure in the first attempt, and failed again. At last the third boring was begun. Down the drill went throngh forty feet of rotten limestone, then through four hundred and fifty feet of gravel rock and dirt, through which vague streams perco lated, and then to a bed of blue marl. It Was be- nealb’thfs marl that Mr. Fort had found water. So on the drill was rent. It went eighty feet further, when it struck clear and cold water. It was strongly Impregnated with inns, however. Just at this point there was a discussion. Part of the citizens wanteijr the work stopped and others wanted it prosecutcifjJ^uUl the mineral yvater belt was passed. The discussion was continued until, I am told, it was discovered the iron water would not mix well with whisky. The drill was imme diately put to work, went a few feet further, when a stream of pure arid sweet water came gurgling up front the bowels of the earth. It yields steadily 30 gallons per minute. The waterls as dear as crystal, pleasant to the toytu and reasonably cool. It prob ably comes from the granite water-sheds lu Carroll and Heard counties, having drifted under the im pervious coatlnBof marl, over which as It reached southward was pHed.theucciimnlation of shells and sea weed, until the water was hundreds of feet t.elow the surface and the ocean was forced hack to its present limits. Forages it has bcen-lmprisoned beneath tills ovcrcoat.of marl, until a people, never dreamed of when it found its way there, pierced the incumbent wall and released it. "The man who drinks this water,” said Colonel Barnes, with a mixture of caution and praise, "don’t need no pi’Is. "lias it any medicinal properties?" "Has it? Well, 1 should say! There is a lady in this town who had dyspepsia for years. She drank this water a while, and now she is sound as a bear. There’s a man who never eat a piece of meat in two years, and after drinking this water ho has a fine 1m>w room and plenty to cat and drink and wear, and big gardens and orchards, and aefes of dowers and vines and broad meadows and fine horses can not bo found.lt is a leisurely,restful place—not the leisure of the laggard, but rather of the man who lias his own business' well in hand and is not at tending to anybody else’s. It must not be imagined that the city is at astand- still. On the contrary, it is going forward sharply —not with a rush or a boom—but sturdily and ' steadily. From one point of view, 1 was shown five new houses being built, and there is growth in nil parts of tho city. The trade ’of the place is large and assured. From 35.000 to 30,000 bales of cotton are received annually, the growers of which dep on Albany for their supplies. To the dank of city Is the best planting region, in my opinion, in the state. There are the plantations of Lockqtt, Jordan and others of like celebrity. The city has recovered entirely from tho shock of the failure of Welch & Bacon. Mr. Davis, the receiver of the broken firm, told mo that the first, second and third preferrea creditors would probably be paid but he saw little hope for the general creditors. It is said that one planter lost 330.000 by this failure. I find here the samo disposition to plant more com and less cotton observable all over.thc state. Mr. Davis, who has charge of the Central's affairs at Albany, said: , . "Wo have better food crops about Albany, with larger acreage than I remember to have seen in years. The demand for credit and supplies on credit is very much diminished. The railroad re ceipts here show 33J i per cent less com and produce appetite and health.” I need not recount the other cases recited byColo- ncl Barnes, but it is safe to say that the water is a tine laxative aud aperient. 1 he eighty feet of marl through which it cones is not piped, as the channel cut by the drill is perfect. It is probable that water in flowing through this bed is influenced by the ■uarl. Not the slightest trace of anything can be detected In the taste or appearance ef the water. The well is certainly a great blessing to the city. It cost about $3,000, and the citizens would not be without it for $100,000. It Is proposed now to build several more wells. Captain Dick Hobbs esti mates that they can be drilled at a cost of abont $750 each. The force of the water is such that it will carry a stream about thirty feet above the opening, and it is proposed to Utilize the artesians for water works. The water is kept in pails in most of the houses, and thero is an almost constant stream of people about the wells with palls, buck eta and pitchers. I believo no other wells have been startei in rtrathwest Georgia, but others will follow since it has been shown that Colonel Fort's success was not accidental, and that the uune con ditions exist for the Albany mi!l which is thirteen miles distant from his. The' ‘ Albany well furnishes just seven gallous per day foreach inhabitant, and I’m inclined to think many of the citizens drink their fair quota. I ask ed the keeper of a sumptuous drinking saloon if it had hurt his business. “No," he replied, "I was afraid it would, but it hre not." Soft's a goed thing all round. Albany is one of tho sturdiest and prettiest cities In the state, ltwaslaldoutin 1836, I believe, by Mr. Nelson Tift, who was as precise in squaring it off as he is in writing an argument on the tariff. The streets are $0 to 120 feet broad, level and shad ed on either side with Cttina trees. The houses are well built and comfortable looking, set In large and well cared for lots. A better type of the southern town of the old days when there was plenty of el- has been sent here this year than last. The farmers seem determluod to make themselves independent of the west as to com. They will probably continue to buy meat of the west, as meat-raising was aban doned here years ago.” I am not able to give the population of Albany— but hold on' Let's see. There is seven gallons day of artesian water to each inhabitant. The well give* 30 gallons a minute. That's 1,800 gallons an hour or 43,3t)0 gallons a day. Divide that by seven gallons, the'daily allowance per head, and we have ti,17li»-7.people. As that is clearly above the limit, which I should say is 4,500, I presume, in the division in the water, the dwellers in the suburbs are allowed to participate. Then there is at least two ^gallons a da£ reserved for each and every stranger. Even under this allowance. Governor Brown and myself overdrank our contract. -i confess that I was agreeably surprised in Al- feftay. _I^caaaot imagluo a pUasankt h«ue, « better place for a safe and decorous business. With pare water assured, its manifold advantages must make it a very important center. I was struck with the thorough and unreserved hospitality of its peo ple. Though we were there curly a few hours, we had more Invitations than would have filled a week, and I could hardly put in a column proper acknowledgments. I leave Albany carrying over many points for incorporation In fatare letters. Just as our car was pulling out. Judge Vason harried up with a gallon bottle full of pale liquid tueked under his arm. "This,” said he, "is some of our artesian water. I want you to take it and drink what you need of it, and take the balance to the Thomasville people. Tell ’em we want them to get a hint of wfcat we are doing up here!" /’ • Mr. W. \V. Thomas, of Athens, who has the most, admirable talent and accomplishments of an'y man I kuow, has been with us since leaving Macon. Hd* served with us through the artesian campaign' at Albany, and goes to Thomasville to adjust some losses for the Southern Mutual insurance company of Athens. . This company presents one of the most In teres- ing questions of the day, that is soon to be settled. It is a purely mutual'fire insurance company. It was started before the ,war, and has now accumu lated a million dollars surplus. This surplus is larger than is needed. It continues to increase year after year. Who does it belong to and what is to be dpne with it? There have been several ideas advanced as to this One is that it belongs to the present stockholders. Another is that the old stockholders who helped ac cumulate it have an interest in it. Another theory is tha' it belongs only to the present stockholders, but to them In proportion to the length of the time they have been insuring in it For example, if a man has been insuring in it for ten years be has clearly added ten times asmuch to the surplus ns the man who has insured only one year. To settle the matter finally the directors have applied to the courts for instructions as to who the surplus belongs The Case will be tried before Judge Claiborne Snead early next mou th. For more than a year the directors have had experts examining the law records of this country urriTEurope to sec if there is any precedent on which tiidy can act. They have applied to insurance experts for information. No precedent can be found, aud i^is reasonably certain that the question lias never been decided. While, therefore, it Involves tremendous Interests, and must become a world-famous issue. Judge Snead will, in all probability, be the first judge that ever considered it. It Is important that the managers of the company should be officially advised as to the ownership of this surplus. It has already grown larger than is necessary or than is usual. Already it has declared Gfi per cent dividend to the stockholders, and yet the surplus grows. The interestfund isoverS60,00 per annum, and the annual business shows a large profit.' The company is administered cheaper than any in the world. Where 210 companies show an average of $60 fire losses In every $100, tho Southern Mutual showed only $22. Where the other compa tries showed $33 on every $100 used for expenses, the Mutual showed only $21. Therefore, unless very heavy dividends—divi dends that will carry the priee of Its insurance actually below cost iu the cheapest managed com pany in the country—the surplus will continue to grow until the interest alone will more than pay all losses. Then, unless insurance is reduced to nothing, the surplus will continue to grow’rapid ly, and where will it end? The directors are anx ious, therefore, to have direct instructions. If the surplus belongs ten times more to the man who has insured ten years than to the man who has insured one year, of course the former should have ten times the biggest annual dividend. It is there fore important to know. Various suggestions have been made as to the dis position of this surplus, or part of it or the interest, A prominent capitalist in Athens suggested that it should be used to build the Northeastern road. A Boston statist of national reputation wrote a sugges tion that the interest be applied to the establish ment of a college of the sciences and arts in Geo gia. Of course, these suggestions were out of the question. The plan of the company has been to take Insurance at the usual rates, taking the whole premium In cash. At the end of the year the losses and expenses were paid—the books balanced and the surplus returned to the policy holders as divi dends, except 10 per cent, which was passed to the surplus fund. Though these dividends have gone from GO to 66 per cent, the surplus has increased until it has becomo a million dollars. The agencies of the Southern Mutual are very valuable positions. The Savannah agency pays annually about S6.000.thc Augusta about $5,000, the Atlanta. about $4,000 and the Borne about $1,200. The decision in this case will be looked forward to with great interest. I met Mr. Selig. of Atlanta, to-day, aud he gave me the particulars of a curious industry in that city. lie and his brothers are manufacturers of sun-bonnets. They employ one hundred and thir ty people, mostly girls and women. These make from $2 60 to $9 a week. In the search made by The Constitution for women’s work in Atlanta this establishment was overlooked—pretty good evi dence of the size of that village. The trade in sun- bonnets is something wonderful. Mr. Selig sold 130 dozen in Albany, and he visits thatsplace about every sixty days. He has five men on the road constantly, his brother working Texas alone. He showed me one letter from St. Louis enclosing or ders for several hundred dozens. The most expen rive bonnets wholesale at $13 a dozen, and retail at ab«ut$2each. They are trimmed with “inserting’ and ribbons. “Did you know,” said Senator Brown wearily, after a severe fit of coughing, as we swept through the pine barrens, “that I have a fine record for re signing office?” "I knew you resigned the supreme court judge- ship?” "1 resigned overy political office I ever held, ex cept state senator. I resigned the first office I was elected to, that of constable; I resigned the supe rior court judgeship: I resigned the supreme court jndgship: I resigned the governorship”— “The governorship?” “Yes, under peculiar circumstances. At the close of the war, while 1 was in prison. Judge John son was made provisional governor, and took cnarge of affairs. When I came home I found him in power. I was very sick for some weeks. As soon as 1 recovered I wrote out my resignation as governor and had it published. I stated to the peo ple that as I was prevented by circum stances over which I had no control from administering the trust they had confided to me, I felt it to be my duty to resign it back int their hands. I was arrested for writing this resig nation by General Wilson, who thought it was con tempt of the Federal anthourity. Yes,” he con- tinned reflectively, "I’ve written several resigna tions of office.” I could not help wondering as I noticed him with his worn and anxious look,and his harrowing cough whether he had closed up his resignation record or was holding it open. There are a good many Geor- gians who would like to know. I am no alarmist*, but I am convinced that Senator Brown is a very- sick man, and that worse is threatened. He under stands the dangers of his case thoroughly, and brings to bear on these the calm composure with which he meets everything. His wife is a devoted and admirable nurse, and nothing will be omitted that can combat his predisposition to throat and lung troubles. With all this, however, his friends may look with the deepest anxiety for the result oi his present run into the warm bell If it does not stop bis cough and check its ravages, the profound interest now felt in Senator Hill's condition will be divided with his colleague, and Georgia, which boasted a few months ago of the strongest team in the senate, will find both her senators grappling with terrible disease, menaced with the most serious result. s. w. <*.
