MONUMENT
TO BE ERECTED TO THE TROUP
ARTILLERY
BOTH ARMS
BROKEN BY A FALL FROM A
BICYCLE.
OX IDE VERY SPOT WHERE
They Saved Lee’s Army
from Rout at Sharpsburg—
A Letter from General
Heth.
Which Will Disable Him for
Some Time—He is Get
ting Along * Nicely
Now.
If there was a bray** and valiant band
in the army of Nathan Virginia it wa*
the Troup Artillery, made up of the
brave sons of Clarke county and the ad
joining section.
It pasted through many battles, and
on one occasion especially rendered
invaluable service to the Confederacy.
At the battle of Sharpsburg, it did
the most important work of that event
ful codtlict, and preserved Lee’s army
from rout.
General Heth has determined to erect
a monument to the Troup Artillery on
the spot where its brave members did
such heroic fighting. He bis written
the following Ieiter to Capt H. H
Carlton:
Dear Captain: Will you be so kind
as to inform m«-, 1st, where your bat
tery was on the morning of the 17th oi
Sept. 1802; 2nd, when the battle ol
SbarpshurK opened where you did your
hardest fightiug during the day ; 3rd
where you bivouacked the night of the
17lh after the battle closed. The 2nd
inquiry is the most important as we
propose to place there a monument com
memoratiug the part taken by your
battery ou that day.
Kespeitlully,
H. Heth.
Capt. Carlton has replied to General
Heth, giving him such information as
he desired. Among other things be
wrote as follows : 9
•‘We crossed the river at daylight at
"Williamspoit, and reported to Genera)
Kershaw, aud he turned us over to Gen
J. E. B. Stuart. We were carried in
at the church at the head or source ol
the Autieiam with instructions from
him to bold that position at all bszsrds
and to let neither the loss of horses or
men ctuse us to give it up, and that the
whole safety of Gen. Lee’s army de
pended on that position being held,
had eighteen horses killed in trying to
get into position and finally had to dta
card my burses and take the battery up
by hand, lhe Troup Artillery occu
pied the centre of a semi-circle and was
fired upon by eighteen guus. We held
the poi-uiou until General Kershaw
reached there, though at tbeeacriiioe of
the entire battery, every gun being dis
abled. The battery suffered terrific loss
in the killed.”
PBOF. JESSE COATES’ HISBAP
Wednesday evening about dark ont
near the old Phinizy place, Prof. Jeaae
Coates, of the University of Georgia
happened to an accident that will disa
ble him for some time at least.
He bad been riding on his bicycle all
the afternoon and in returning home
waa riding at a rather rapid rate of
speed, when near tbe Pbinisy place,
the wheel went into a gully and tbe
rider pitched headlong to the groond.
The fall was a very bard one, the
bioyble being one of the Urge, bigh-
wbeeied kind, and Pr> f. Coates was
badly stunned and hruised
Passersbr carried him into the near
est home where he was given the neces
sary medioal attention.
Dr. S. C. B nedict responded and
found upon examination that both
arms bad been broken, one in two
places near the wrist, and the other
near the elbows.
Prof. Coates fell upon bis face and in
the fall his nose was badly out by his
spectacles, and the gravel skinned his
face in several places.
The wounds were very painful but
not of a serious nature and Prof. Coates
will be out again after a while.

Mrs. Dr. E. H. Hale and her nine-
year-old son came near meeting death
yesterday afternoon about one o'clock
by being thrown from a buggy.
They were out visiting and several
people noticed that ever and anon the
horse would kick and plunge. v
In fact, one lady, meeting Dr. W. A
Carlton, told bim that she was afraid
Mrs. Hale would happen to an accident
as tbe horse was very uneasy in his
movements.
In less than a quarter of an hour the
message cams to Dr. Carlton to come at
once to the residence of Mr. W. D Ksl-
ly, on River street, where Mrs. Hale
had been carried after the accident,
The horse had become frightened on
Thomas street and had run into and
down R'ver street, until the buggy was
turned over and the occupants thrown
headlong into the street.
For a while they were both almost in
sensible. They were carried into Mr
Kelly’s reeidence, and Dr. Carlton soon
came to give them such medical treat
ment as they needed.
Mrs. Hale was badly cut- across and
below the chin and was painfully
bruised on the face and body.
The little boy was not out or gashed
anywhere, but was terribly shaken up
and bruised by the fall. He was pretty
badly hurt in tbe left side,
The injuries are not of a serious na>
ture, although they were quite painful.
It was a very narrow escape from death

Washington, May 18.—Colonel A. E.
Buck, United States marshal for the
uorthern district of Georgia, has sent
his resignation to take effect the 30th of
June.
Colonel Buck’s Republican friend;
say he would have tendered his resig
nation before this, but that he did no
intend to retire under charges that hi
has waited to see if any charges of a
personal nature would be preferred
ugainst him, and as none have been he
is perfectly willing to step down and
out for a Democrat.
The charges filed by Mr. Moses, Mr.
Hoke Smith, together with the circu
lars sent forward by Mr. Cabiness, of
The Journal, contain only charges
against him as an offensive partisan
while holding office. On these charges
the president would have called for his
resignation. Colonel Buck has obviated
this by forwarding his resignation. In
the meantime the president will select
his successor.
It now looks as though Colonel Ren
froe will be appointed. The president
anyway, is inclined that way.
A new candidate tor the inarshalship
has developed. He is Hon. Reuben
Mobley, of Hamilton, Harris county
Georgia. He was a member of the last
legislature.
A Californian Call*.
Congressman Caminetti, of California
had a short conference with the presi
dent and left the White House feeling
assured that it was the intention of the
president to see that the Chinese re
striction act was enforced.
Caminetti denied that it would take
anything like the sum of money that
had been mentioned to enforce the act
for the reason that those Chinamen en
titled to rerjain would have to secure
their certificates at their own expense
and that those against whom the law
really aimed would be frightened out
of the country the moment an hones*
i attempt is made to enforce it.
He says that the imposition of tlie
punishment prescribed—one year at
hard labor—upon a few of the offenders
would be sufficient to drive all others
out, and than the United States will not
be called upon to deport the great mass
of people.
Caminetti is of the opinion that what
additional money may be needed will be
voted at the next session and he fears
no repeal of the law.
It is understood that the president is
to hold a conference with the secretary
of the treasury for the purpose of de
vising means for the enforcement of the
law.
