GEORGIA'S CROPS.
Col. Henderson, the Commissioner' '6l
Agriculture of Georgia, in Lis last report,
says: “The heavy storms of rain and
wind which occurred during the first
twelve days of September, covering the
entire state, proved ve»j damaging to
most crops not harvested, hut especially
to cotton and rice. The storms were
most violent aud*the rainfall the greatest
in the eastern and northeastern section of
the state, causing greatffioods in the Sa
vannah and Ogeechee rivers, almost
without precedent in the history tti the
state. The general of the
condition of the cotton crop—an average
of the state—was 10 points, or from 85
on September 1, to 75 October 1. This
is due almost entirely to the heavy storms
already alluded to. In North 'Georgia
the damage was 11 points; m Middle
Georgia, .14; in Southwest Georgia, 3; in
East Georgia, 7; in Southeast Georgia,
13; showing that the greatest injury oc
curred in the valleys of the Savannah and
Ogeechee rivers. The general average
condition for the state is three points be
low that nf October 1,. 1887. It is quite
evident that the .sober, second thought of
the farmers has reduced the first esti
mates of damage. The efleets of the
storms and floods arc also seen in the re
duction of the condition and prospective
yield of corn from 93 on September 1, to
88 on October 1. The condition is now
the same as that of l October 1, 1887.
The sugar cane crop is reported but
little under an average, while in fact it is
probably the best crop we have
had lor several years. Rice
is not damaged ■a 3 much as was
first estimated/ allowing a reduction in
Southeast Georgia (where the bulk of the
crop is produced) of but 4 points since
September 1. Sweet potatoes have im
proved 3 points and give promise of a full
crop. The questions in regard to the pricei
of cotton bagging, on the first day of
October, 1887, and the date this year,
the average quantity usedi per bale, and
the price of cotton, were intended to
elicit facts which have a special interest
at this time. At 6.4 yards per bale it
required 45,000.000 yards of bagging for
the crop of 1887-88. At 8.9 cents pel
yard the prevailing price of last season,
the cost of the bagging fur that crop was
£4,005,000. Assuming that the crop of
the present year will equal that of lasi
year, the cost of covering it with jute
bagging at 14 cents par yard will be
£0,300,000, or an increase of $2,295,000.”
THE CHURCH FELL IN.
Over 100 people were injured in an acci
dent which took place during the cere
monies attending the laying of the corner
stone of the new St. Mary’s Polish Catholic
church, in Reading, Pa., on Sunday.
Previous to the corner stone laying, there
was a street parade participated in by all
the Catholic societies. Probably seven
thousand people gathered at the site of
the church to witness the ceremonies,
pbout one thousand of whom were
crowded on a temporary floor laid on the
joist and walls of the edifice, which had
been carried up one story. Archbishop
Ryan, of Philadelphia, personally con
ducted the ceremonies, assisted by the
priests of the three Catholic churches.
After the corner stone had been laid,
Father Libichi, pastor of the congrega
tion, arose to speak, and had scarcely
commenced his remarks, when tho newly
constructed walls gave way and one
fourth of the floor fell with an awful
crash, precipitating 200 people to the
ground, a distance of from fifteen to
nineteen feet.
CHINESE ARRIVALS.
The steamer Belgic arrived Monday
at San Francisco, Cal., from Hong Kong.
She brings 106 Chinese. The Duke of
Westminster also arrived from Hong
Kong via Vancouver, B. C., with 211
Chinese aboard. From advices by the
Belgic the following is gleaned: A dis
astrous floaj in the province of Moukden,
about 250'-miles northeast of Pekin,
caused the death of hundreds of natives;
the utter annihilation of very many
homes, destruction to the crops and pros
pects of a general famine for the coming
winter. Cholera is still raging at Hong
Koug. The daily average of patients
ranges from forty to fifty, most of whom
die. %
‘‘ALAS! POOR YORICK!”
There was no foundation for the rumor
that John L. Sullivan, “the slugger” of
Boston, Mass., was dying, as a visit to
Crescent Beach developed. What is to
become of Sullivan when he recovers is a
matter of much conjecture. He has no
money worth speaking of, and his friends
are few and far between. His wild ex
cesses have so completely undermined
his constitution that it is doubtful that
if he will try to regain his lost fortune
bv going through the country in the role
of an exhibition boxer.

to Alexander Carpenter. Mr. Carpenter
got into a quarrebwith a stranger, whose
name could not be learned, when the

Fire broke out in the McClellan
House at Birmingham, and burned so
rapidly that-the building was almost to
tally destroyed, before the firemen could
get the flames under control. J. A.
Weatherby of the Evening Chronicle,
with his sister and niece, jumped from
the third floor to the yard, a distance of
fifty feet. "Weatherby was fatally in
jured.
S. G. Lawrence, a recently elected
justiog of the peace of Birmingham, ac
companied by Will Lacey, both armed,
entered the Hot Blast office for the pur
pose of making W. H. Edmunds, the
editor, retract something he said in a
card to the Montgomery Advertiser, de
nying statements made t.y Lawrence as
correspondent of the Montgomery Dis
patch, concerning the difficulty between
Edmunds and ex-Policemau Phinize,
which he (Edmunds) declined to do..
Lacey commenced firing promiseously a
self-cooking revolver, striking Edmunds
in the left arm, badly crushing and break
ing it. S. C. TripDey, a plumber, who
was in the room, received a ball in the
back of his head, coming out through
the mouth. John Chappell, a young
man connected with the otHbe, was shot
through the back of the neck. None of
the wounds will likely prove fatal. Mr.
Edmunds will lose his arm.

her babe in her arms, sank instantly.
Mrs. Phillips’ two-moatbs-old babe was
borne from her arms in the struggle for
life in the water, and went down to

SOUTH CAROLINA. ■
Alec Farrar, who for many years has
been the crier of the U. S. Court, died
at Charleston, Sunday. He was very
polite and had a weakness for praising
trie personality of the higher officers of
the court and of the lawyers and the re
porters. It was a common thing with
him to say, “Mr A or Mr you look
really very charming this morning sir,
oyster soup, sir, to-day, across the way.”
It is related that he made a similar speech
to tlie late Chief Justice of the United
States Court during the progress of the
political trials. He was as polite as
Chesterfield on all occasions, his bow us
ually extending from the soles of his
feet to the top of his head.
There is a section of Colleton county
which has had remarkable spells of
weather during the past two years. Tha
section is not over twenty miles square.
For fourteen months following
the earthquake, which was very severe
in that section, there was an almost con
tinuous drought. During this time the
total rainfall did not exceed two inches.
Streams and springs dried up; crops and
cattle perished for want of water and it
was difficult for the people to obtain
good drinking water. A little over two
months ago rain began failing steadily in
that section, and for 57 consecutive days
ti*.ero were only two upon which it did
not rain. All the lowlands were turned
into lakes.

FEVER DECREASING.
Edwin Martin, editor of tlie Jackson
ville, Fla., Tim y-. Union died on Sunday
morning. Mr. Martin was about torty
one years old and leaves a wife, three
small children and an aged moth«r. Pre
vious to his going to Jacksonvile, he had
been an editorial writer on the Savannah,
Ga., Morning News for a year or two. He
was a native of Tennessee, and entered
the Confederate service at the age of 15,
and was an orderly on the staff of one of
the cavalry commanders, afterwards he
went to Georgia and settled in one of the
upper counties of the state, where he
practiced law and edited a weekly news
paper. He represented his county in
me Legislature for one or two terms and
finally abandoned law for the field of jour
nalism. C. D. Owens, traffic manager of
the Plant system, has inquired what ac
tion, if any, the board of health of Sa
vannah was likely to take with reference
to giving free passage to Florida fruit.
Right Rev. E. G. Weed reported on his
visit to Mitchell camp and suggested
that measures be taken to permit and

country and desiring to go to Camp
Mitchell, to make application to the cen
tral relief committee. • A crowd wr.s at
tracted to the corner of Bay and Laura
streets on Sunday by the strange appear
ance of a young man apparently intoxi
cated. He finally began vomiting olood,
and at last fell fainting to the pavement.
An ambulance was summoned by a po
liceman and the man sent to St. Luke's
hospital. Inquiry revealed the fact that
the man had been discharged from an
attack of yellow fever only a few days
previous. This wrs doubtless a relapse.
His name was Mead, a bookbinder by
trade. Dr. Neale Mitchell, president of
the board of health, issues the following
official bulletin for 24 hours: New cases
S 3, deaths 9; total cases 3,101. Total
deaths 291. The yellow fever news from
Decatur, Ala., is not encouraging. Four
new cases and two deaths are reported.

R. V. Williams. Dr: Gill was one of
the oldest residents of the town and had
been pr acticing his profession there since
1850. The weather there still warm.

“Why should I move? I havn’t done
anything,” answered the negro. “Well
get. Get a move on you!” said Brown,
raising his pistol. Henderson stood still
and pulled the trigger. The ball
passed into Henderson’s mouth and with
the blood pouring down his chest, he
ran into the church. As he moved, Brown
fired two more times. Hendersonentered
the church as fast as he could move
and threw the congregation into great
excitement. He dropped near the pulpit.
It was found that one ball knocked away
several teeth and tearing half the tongue
away had buried itself .in the neck. It
was found in the back of the neck.
