TROUBLE IN CARROLLTON.
Bomb Throwers Toss an Explo - ;
sive at a Minister’s Home.
Cakrullton, Ga., December 4.
A bomb was placed in the yard of;
Rev. George W. Duval, pastor of
the Methodist church here last
night, and exploded, breaking the)
glass in the parsonage door and \
windows and setting tire to the ve
randa floor.
The bomb contained a large
quantity of powder and was bound
with cotton rope. Some of the
burning rope fell on the veranda
setf'ng tire to the floor, but the I
fire was discovered in time to pro
west the destruction of the build
ing-
.The blind tiger element, backed
b’ ka gang of toughs, almost night
h Iterroize the town by placing
bombs near the house of those
who are trying to break up the ti
gers.
The tight started several weeks
ago, when J. J. Patterson was
elected marshal. The whiskey
crowd became frightened th- n and
tried to scare Patterson off by tir
ing a bomb in his yard. An in
dignation meeting was held by the
citizens next day, in which Mr.
Duval took an active pan. That,
and his past work against the ti
gers. is thought to be the cause
of the attempt to blow up his
house.
A reign of terror is on and great
excitemen has prevailed all day.
The sale oj $74,000 worth of At
lanta redemption bonds on Tues
day was successful. The bonds art

WEYLER HEMMED IX.
Maceo New Said to Have Him
Completely Surrounded. ■
Key West, Fla., Dec. 6. —The
steamer Whitney brought Havana
i news this morning in relation to
Maceo and Weyler. Passengers
state that Weyler himself is now
encamped ten miles from Arteme
sia and his army is scattered along
the trocha and through the Pinar
del Rio districts. When Maceo re
treated from Weyler in his first
campaign, his plan was to surprise
Weyler at the first opportunity,i
I and now Maceo has his army on
' either side of Weyler and they are
, having daily skirmishes. Weyler,
,! is completely surrounded, and if 1
he attempts to move he will be
compelled to go to Artemesia.
Small bands have crossed the)
I trocha into Havana district and]
are attacking the outposts and vil -
' lages of that province.
Insurgents numbering 7,000 are
(encamped in Havana province, ]
twenty miles from Havana, and ]
will go to Maceo’s assistance when !
i needed. Spies in Havana are j
keeping the insurgents posted as
to the movements of :he Spanish
■ troops.
A movement is on foot to cap
i ture Weyler if he shall attempt to
(go to Havana by rail.
Firemen and volunteers in Ha
vana are being sent to Weyler’s re
lief. Heretofore these troeps were
used in the defense of the city.
Since Tuesday’s raid of Guana-"
j bacoa, that city has been attacked
) almost every night, and Thursday
• night 250 Cuban cavalry rode for
' two hours through the city. The
, damage done amounts to thirty-
> six houses burned and a large sup
ply of ammunition seized; also a
large number of mules loaded and
ready to leave the city were taken.
The steamers Cataluna and Isle
de Panay, having on board 2,550
soldiers have arrived here.

A DEPLORABLE ACCIDENT.
A Young Man Meets a Tragic
Death.
‘ Felton Ilamil on, next to the
youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. S. a.
Flamilton, of near Subligna, was
' killed last Friday morning while
hauling lumber from a sawmill.
About all that can be learned of
the unfortunate affair is that he
had gone to the mill, leaded his
wagon with lumber and started
( home. About four or five hours
later, he was found by a negro
man. His skull was badly frac
tured, and he was unconscious and
: therefore give no account of how
the accident happened. It is
thought that the team ran away
with him down a steep hill, at,the
( foot of which he was found. One
;of his legs was broken and he was
otherwise severely injured. He
( was carried home by the colored
j man, but lived only a short time
i afterwards.
