THE DAILY TIMES. GEORGIA, BY TELEGRAPH. FORT VALLEY. A ( HKINTMAN OF SAM EVENTS. TWO HOMICIDES—-A HANGING—THE TOWN DEFIED—SMALL FIGHTS, &0. Special to Times by S. k A. Lino.) Fort Valley, Dec. 26.— Fort Val ley, though usually a quiot and peace able little city, hus for the i>ast three months been the scene of more fear ful accidents and fatal calamities than any other town in Georgia; and yet wo have two horriblo deaths to report which occurred in our midst last night. The first one—As is usual in Christ mas, the town was alive with people aud fire works were Hying and pop-- ping in every direction. In a short while the fire works guvo out, and a dozen or more little boys, desirous of keeping up the merriment, procured by some means a inusket eacit, and went ovei; the town banging away in every direction. Finally they con cluded to lire a volley in front of Mrs. Gray’s store-house, wherein a negro ball was going on, and unfor tunately oue of the guns contained a minnie ball, which after having passed through an inch plank struck a negro woman, Carrie Houser, and killed Iter instantly. She was dan cing at the time. The ball penetra ted the back of her head and came out just over the right eye. Bhe leaves u child six weeks old. It is hard to tell who shot the gun con taining the ball, but it is very evi dent it was accidental. A coroner’s jury held an inquest and returned the following verdict: “Deceased came to her death by being acciden tally shot with tv gun by an unknown party.” An investigation will be had, and if anything further is devel oped you shull be informed. The second killing occurred a short distance front town, on the plantation of Mr. Pleasant Duke, an old and highly respectable farmer. It seems that Mr. Duke had some unpleasant words with a negro, Dave Ross, last night after supper, and saw fit to strike him several blows on the head with a hickory stick. Not being satisfied, Mr. Duke went after a shot gun, but on his return found the negro sitting lifelessfin a chair. A post mortem -examination was held, and a coroner’s jury hold an in quest, but we did not hear an authen tic .statement of the vordiot. Mr. Du ke is a good and influential citizen, and the sad affair is much to be re gretted. Miles Josev, a notorious negro thief and otesperado, was found hang ing by the neck to a limb, about four miles from town this morning. Cor oner’s jury returned the following verdict: “Deceased came to his death by being hanged by the neck by parties unknown.” Yesterday ono of our good citizens got gloriously drank and concluded he would whip out the town, aud owing to the illness of our Mayor he succeeded admirably. Ho com menced by whaling a darkey over the head with a stick, but the mar shal soon interfered and stopped the row. Our drunken friend, however, got more boisterous as he got drunk er, and a policeman started to the guardhouse with him, but by some means he did not succeed in carry ing him, and the next seen of him he was sitting in his front porch with a shot gun where he remained for an hour and defied the town to take him. He was not jailed, as he should have been, and at a late hour last night he was on the streets too drunk to find his way home. Several small fights occurred dur ing the day. Last night a drunken negro fell to sleep on the railroad track, and hud not Mr. P. H. Bone seen him by the headlight of an approaching train in time to pull him off the track, he would doubtless have been killed. Christmas comes too often in Fort Valley, if such sad affairs are to be the result. R. ■lea 111 from a Unfliliut Fit. Special to the Timks.] Lanoly, Ga., Dec. 27.-Mr. .Tno.
