The Revolutionists Lose Many
Men, Horses and Guns.
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.

RUFUS E LESTR.
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.”

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.
We represent one of the best and
cheapest life insurance companies in
the United States, the Fidelity Mu
tual Life Association, of Philadel
phia, come and see us about it.

CUMBERLAND ISLAND-
Will Be Sold to a Macon Syndicate
For $75,000.
The season at Cumberland Island
is drawing to a close, so far as large
crowds are concerned. 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.

DRIVERS STRIKE.
The Street Cars Were Tied up
Yesterday.
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

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.
