Clarkson Resigns - Fighting Out Their Feud-Carried a Fortune With Him—Hon. W. J. Northen At Home—Minor Mention. 1 City of Mexico, Aug. 11.—Dis , patches from Guatemala deny the report that Martinez Sobrai, secreta ry of state, was arrested. He has resigned, however, and Senor F. An guino, secretary of justice, has taken charge of his portfolio. This denotes no change in policy. The government forces, under Gen. Pedro Barillas, have routed the revo lutionists at Tempisque, in the Ori ental department. The revolutionary army, which was largely reinforced by San Salvadorians, numbered 3,000 while the government troops num bered 1,974. The government’s loss was light. The revolutionists lost 111 killed. Fifteen of the revolutionists were made prisoners. Besides a number of horses, the revolutionists lost 90 Remington rifles with bayonets at tached, and over 1,000 cartridges. The battle lasted five hours. The whole country is now in a state of peace. Everything is quiet on the Salvadorian frontier. In San Salva dor commerce is moving tranquilly, and there are no 'revolutionists. Honduras is withdrawing her forces, being threatened with interior troubles. CLARKSON HAS RESIGNED. Washington, Aug. 11. —Clarkson has tendered his resignation of the first assistant postmaster-general ship to take efiect Sep. 1. He is still being urged to accept the secretary ship aud the management of the con gressional campaign committee, but has thus far declined. •Clarkson tolel the President that he would ac cept the place, ardious anti thankless as he believed it to be, if he thought the force bill was to become law, but he did not believe it would, and so must decline to undertake what he evidently regarded as a hopeless task. FIGHTING OCT THEIR FEUD. New Orleans, Aug.ll.—The Times Democrat’s Meridian (Mias.) special says: News reached here this even ing of a terrible affray at Tucsoncala. It seemed that a feud has existed for years, between a family named Gan dy and another named Fairchild, anti to-day two Gandy boys met two of the Fairchilds in Tuscanla. A fight ensued with knives in which Brown Gandy was supposed to have re ceived fatal wounds and John Gan dy was very badly wounded. One of the Fairchilds is seriously cut and there is little hope of his recovery. CARRIED A FORTUNE WITH HIM. Chicago, August. 11.—Edward Treuch, a man about GO years of age, and supposedly a poor pocketbook vender, who had a little stand on Randolph street, dropped dead of heart disease Thursday morning, a few minutes after he opened up his place of business. The attendants of the morgue were somewhat aston ished when preparing the body for burial, to find sewn in the under clothing the respectable sum of over $4,000 and a deed to the house in which he had lived. A Midnight Duel. Last Saturday night Tony Sauing and Ball Capers had an altercation in Peters’ bar room. During the melee several shots were fired but no dam age was done. The officers succeed ed in arresting Sauing and he is now having a chance to curb his anger. His trial will probably occur tomor row. The celebrated R. & G. Cor ■ set is selling now for 75c at the Palais Royal. James S. Wright, the Cloth ier’ has a new and elegant stock ’ of Clothing just opened. a Children's Lace and Quilted Bibs in great variety and re duced prices at the Palais Royal. ...

Something About His Chances For Re Election to the Next Congress. Hon. Rufus E. Lester, of Savan nah, was in Brunswick Saturday as ternoon. He reached here by the Savannah train and was taken in hand by Messrs. W. E. Burbage and M. Ull man. Col. Lester entertained many cal lers during the afternoon, and it is very likelv that he went away well pleased with the political outlook in the first congressional district. Referring to Col. Lester, the Sav annah Times of Saturday says: ‘‘Democrats here haven’t worried themselves very much as to how the negroes of Savannah, or other parts of the first district, would vdte in a contest between Congressman R. E. Lester and Capt. M. J. Doyle. They have bad their hands too full looking after the former’s interest in the nominating convention to pay any attention to an election, the re sult of which is already known. “The colored people are talking it over among themselves though, and the question will cause a division in their ranks in this city. Col. Lester has a heap of friends among the ne groes. They like him and many of them are going to vote for him, no matter who the republican candidate may be. One of the ex-mayor’s friends this morning stated that with a little good work on the part of Col. Lester and his friends here, 1 he could secure as many negro votes 1 as the republican aspirant. With the result a certainty, it is doubtful, however, if much effort will be made 1 to draw away from the strength of Capt. Doyle, or whoever the republi can in the field may be.” PERSONAL MENTION Mr. Henry T. Dunn has gone to New York. Mr. Lee Robinsqn left Saturday night for Savannah. Mrs. W. S. Branham is visiting friends in Jackson. Mrs. J. B. Wright left on theb'tate of Texas Saturday for New York. Mr. E. J. Allen and Miss Gertrude Allen are on St. Simon’s for a week.

SIMON'S. 1 How That Resort is Growing in Popular Favor. , An Impromptu Ball Last Saturday 1 Night-—Great Exodus From Al- | bany.—Church Services on the island Yesterday. St. Simon’s Island is growing | more and more in popular favor. 1 hat statement is an axiom to ] any person who has observed the great increase in visitors to that ( pleasant resort. On either side of the hotel St. Si- ' mon s are rows of cottages, substan- ( tially built and comfortably furnish ed throughout. They are admirably adapted to that class of people who seek the seaside for recreation and ' comfort and notf or a display of flashy diamonds and costly attire, which ' chance may have thrown in their I way. This is the season of the year on J I St. Simon’s when style, which may sometimes be appropriately termed force of circumstances, docs not de mand a change of toilet as often as lour times a day; when a lady is .lot shut out of the “upper ten” if she fails to don her superb en train silk; when a gentleman can leave oil his silken sash and wet associate with the “bloods.” On the contrary this is the season of supreme enjoyment. Almost every cottage islilled and the cottagers have resolved themselves into a large fami ly making home life one of the strong est features attached to the place. The crowd on St.. Simon’s was largely augme.ted Satdrdaj' afternoon and night. Indeed there was quite a party of society people on the island and ar. impromptu ball was gotten up in honor of two Thomas ville belles who are visiting friends in the city. Prof. J. E. Osborne and Mr. Constance Miller were the mu sical directors and many charming selections did they render during the evening. Yesterday witnessed the largest crowd on St. Simons since the closing of the hotel. The most of them were excursionists from Albany, who bad taken advantage of the cheap*rate now offered by the Brunswick and Western railroad. They arrived at 10:30 o’clock, and as soon as they reached the hotel, bounded away to the hath houses and then to the beach. Many of them had evidently never taken a dip in the briny basin but they enjoyed it hugely. In fact numbers of them remained in the surf for three hours. The tide wus at its height about 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon' and loungers in the surf were also treated to a shower bath from the clouds. That feature was quite novel to many and proved so disagreeable to some that they retired to the dressing rooms. At 4:30 o’clock the sexton of the Episcopal mission began to ring his improvised bell, which consisted of a circular saw and a bar of iron. Everybody knew the meaning and soon the little church was well filled. A choir was formed from members of the audience consisting of the Misses Penniman, Miss Mamie Blain Miss Annie Bcrrie, Mr. C. L. Frost and Mr. D. L. Clinch. The rector, Rev. Mr. Stewart-Mar tin chose for the subject of his dis course the crucifixtion and in a plain simple and beautiful way did he re late the story of Christ’s suflenng on Calvary. He could not conceive of so great a sacrifice as that made by the Redeemer, who Was now inter ceding for lost humanity. He closed with an invocation that all should give their life and labors to that Christ, and thus reap the reward of the blessed.

Although the hotel is still open and will con- > tinuc to receive aud entertain its guests indefinitely. Capt. Bunkly, the proprietor of Cumberland, has been seen by a Post reporter and some Information has been gained as to the fu- i ture of Cumberland. c Capt. Bunkly says that the sale of Cumberland to the Macon syndicate c has not been consummated, but i that the price agreed upon is $75,- r 000. The syndicate has an option ’ upon the property, until the 13th of J Nov., at their figure, and has paid a 1 goo I round sum for the privilege. I Capt. Bunkly does not think that s the parties holding the option will ’ be willing to forfeit their option, and that the sale will be consu mated. Cumberland has always been a c favorite resort for Macon people, and v although the scheme of purchase aud improvement has been started c by Macon people, yet. the ownership s of the property is not to be confined I to that city. Indeed it is reported v that the promoters of the enterprise have refused to sell any more of t their stock to Macon people, intend c ing to interest the people of several c cities throughout the state in the t matter. » The Bunkley tract upon Cumber < land contains 1600 acres, of which i 600 hundred acres is marsh land, i The estate has been in the family 1 for generations, a portion of it hav- 1 ing originaly been a revolutionary i grant. Cumberland Island contains i about 20,000 acres, of which Mrs. < Qarmgil owns over half, anil the re i mainder is divided amongst about ] twenty landlords. i The soil of the Island, in many ' places, is extremely fertile, as much | as 100 bushels of corn being raised < to the acre. Stock raising raising ; is also extensively carried on. The Muss. Bunkley realize the < fact that they are about to sell an i excedingly valuable piece of proper- , ty; that its tract front can scarcely 1 be duplicated, yet they are willing to part with it at the handsome fig ure named, rather than hold it for a i higher price. The evolution of Cumberland into i a resort has been gradual, and was i originally accidental. About tho I year 1873, the first guests were en < tertained, and they camo at their own request. Year after year, additions < have been made to meet the in 1 creased demand for accommodations, 1 until at present 350 guests can be 1 cared for with reasonable comfort. ' The Stenographers. The stenographers of Brunswick 1 like their fellow craftsmen in other ' cities, are beginning to see the im 1 portance of organizing an associa tion for mutual improvement aud i social intercourse. > They held an informal meeting this morning at the office of Mr. ' Krauss and it was decided to call a * meeting of al! the stenographers in the city to be held at the Y. M. C. A. i parlors to morrow night at 8 o’clock.- Great enthusiasm prevailed and it is expected that a rousing meeting will " be held. Among the most prominent pres ent this morning were Messrs. ' Krauss, Conyers, Gale and Gress. Mr. Gress organized the Atlanta | shorthand association which has 164 names on the roll. . Business rr.en everywhere are be- | ginning to see the benefits derived from having a stenographer. Soon no office will be complete , without one and for the purpose of placing the stenographer on a higher plane, associations are formed where thcy.may exchange ideas. The sten ographers should be encouraged in this undertaking by every business man. New lot of Neckwear at Jas. S. Wright’s- ' ♦ ♦ - ——■ ' I Nice cottage lots on Kt. Simon’s beach.

And the Drivers go Out-They Went More Pay Superintendent Dart Refures to Accede to Their Demands. Yesterday morning the street car drivers went out and a strike was de. dared. The people who wished to ride to church were left in the “soup” and many were the sighs for the car “that never returned.” When the cars were brought out the men refused to work and then the strike was on. A Post representative called on Mr. Dart the superintendent of the line and asked him about the trouble. Mr. Dart said: SUPT. part’s statement. -‘The first intimation of a strike came while I was engaged on the wharf yesterday. A large excursion party was in the city and were waiting to take the steamer for the island and of course I was very busy. This the drivers were aware of. About 7:30 o’clock Mr. John Moore the foreman of the line, sent me a communication to the effect that the drivers were on a strike. I hastened to the stables and found that all but two of the men hal quit. I made in quiry as to the cause of tho strike and was presented with a document ' which was signed by each of the^t* 0 ' 1 ' kers, containing their dem We pay ten cents per.hour ft£ 8 ‘ l l actual time put in. The str'’ 1 " jj manded 124 cents per hour“ nn ' J ’ certain rules and regu' 19 ■■turnouts.’’ I 1 ’ ‘‘ L th luonilß <>ur gr< " > timings wer.r - , less for yesterday with newt? running just half the day t**/ usual amount taken in withlf'. ’ * n( ’' drivers and as perfect servicoßk c ' rendered by the new men as clfj’ ln have been rendered by the olifh. ones. If the men had notified me of any Y evils existing I would have given ■ them a patient hearing and had their claims been founded on justice I would have accorded satisfaction. These drivers thought they had me knapping but while the Dart family remains us numerous as at present we will drive the cars ourselves if no one else wants to. A number of the most prominent people in the city express their ap probation of the course I have taken. We beg the good people to bear with us for a few days until our line is completed and we will thus ren der better service than ever. The strikers could not be found • up to the time of going io press. MONDAY’S MISCELLANY The Day’s Doings Briefly Para graphed by a Post Reporter.
