ployes of the Plant System and left

on the Brunswiok and Western train
Wednesday sfternoon. When they
reached Tifton they beoame involved
in a general quarrel. It seams as
though they bad bad some words be
fore reaohing TiftoD, and when that
point was reached, Croom would not
assist Goldwire iu unloading the bag
gage and a row resulted. After some
hot words between them, the negro
oureed Goldwire and pulled bis pistol,
but the bsggagemsster was too quick
for him, and fired five bullets before
the negro could ■boo''. Croom fall and
died in few minutes later.
Goldwire went on to Albany on bis
regular run, and when bis destination
wai reached ha wired the sheriff of
Berrien oounty that be was rsady to

He has many friends in this city who
thick that he will come clear in his
trouble.
Croom was not’a Brunswick negro,
and very little was known of him
here.
A GALA WEEK.

There is no deubt abuut the success of
a gala week provided ths people will
work in harmony.
A prominent stockholder of tbs fair
association said that the city council
could do a great deal towards the suc
cess of the plan by granting the fair
people the right te use oertain streets
and sell the priveleges. Of course the

then nothing stands between the gala
week and BUcsess.
