LA BELLE FOREST.
The Golden Spot of Georgia and
the Finest Forest in the World
Did you ever take the morning
train on the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia railroad, and scud
along through the fo.esls of pine
* and the green meadows that skirt
the beautiful countrv between here
ud Macon? It'is a most delight
ful little run at this season of the
year, The fields of forests, green
with the promise of a plenteous bar
vest, the rolling hills clad in their
kirtle of bright green and crowned
with the primeval woods, God’s first
temple, now sloping their broad
backs to the very verge of the
creeks, and now receding in tiie
purple mists of a brilliant sunset
until their tops seem to touch the
heavens and take on the vague, un
certain views that mingle with our
dreams of fairy land, and the beau
tiful little creeks wending their va
rious ways through all this feast of
vernal loveliness conspire to com
plete a picture that makes you love
life and thank him who has lavished
all his good gifts upon this happy
land and set you in the midst to
enjoy it. What a splended piece of
property this little road is. What a
country it traverses and what possi
bilities it opens up to the imagina
tion of material wealth and a glori
ous future of public usefulness.

With the Courts.
Lawrence Bacon, the negro ar
rested last Thursday night for carry
ling concealed weapons, waived pre
liminary examination before Judge
Coker and was remanded to jail in
default of a one hundred dollar
bond. The case of the Atlanta
Lumber Company, vs. the Crescent I
Lumber Company, was tried before
. Judge Lambright’ this morning.
This was a suit . upon notes and ac
counts. Judge Bolling Whitfield
represented the plaintiff and Solici
tor W. G. Brantley, the defendants, j
After argument the court awarded
judgment in favor of the plaintiff.
A short session of the police court i
was held this morning, but several ' ’
dollars were added to the city’s

To the Bottom of the Sea.
Mrs. C. M. Forbes, wife of con
ductor Forbet, of the Brunswick and
Western railroad, lost a beautiful
watch this moaning, and the chances '
11
are that she will not recover it. It
happened this way;
Mrs. Forbes was fishing off Ocean
I
Pier, St. Simons this morning about
7 o’clock. Her watch was held, sc 1
curely she thought, by the belt. ,
while a cosily chain of pearl and
ruby setting, was suspende 1 from
the stem. Mrs. Forbes had freuuent
1 I i
occasion to rebait her hook and hurl
it into
these strenuous hurling acts that
t
caused the watch to fly its embrace,
and McGinty like, take a dip in the
briny deep. Conductor Forbes will
attempt to recover the lost valuable ,
when the tide is at its lowest ebb.
Murdered at Waycross.
Charlie Mitchel was killed in
Waycross last night. He was on
gaged in playing eaids with another ■
nogro whose name is unknown.!
Mitchel won the game and proceeded ,
to take in the stakes. He was or- .;
dered to keep his hands off but I
failed to look at the matter in the i ]
same light the other did. This j;
enraged his opponant who drew a '
pistol and shot Mitchel through the i
heart killing him instantly. The '
murderer escaped and though a
posse are in hot persuit, he has sue- ]
needed in evading them. 1
Mitchel, the murdered man, has i
always born a fair reputation. I

WAS IT A WRECK
A Curious Note Found in a
Floating Bottle.
Just How It Reads—Was it a Message
From a Wreck?—lt May Clear
up the Mystery of the Al
batross—What is it?
Was it a message from a wreck?
Well, listen and form your own j
idea.
Yesterday afternoon, when the tide I
was at its best on St. Simons, quite’
a number of people were lounging in
the surf.
Miss Mamie Basket, of Pearson,'
became veiy inuc). frightened at an j
object that floated near her, and her
screams soon brought several gen
tlemen to her side.
They*, too, saw* the object which
proved to be i bottle, tightly corked
a piece of paper. Curious to know
what the bottle contained a Post re-1
porter carried it ashore and broke!
it in the presence of several gentle-1
men.
It was a common piece of wrap-j
ping paper now exposed to view aud !
pencil marks, here and there two
dim to he legible, covered both sides.
This last discovery added to the
curiosity of the onlookers v. ho pres
sed up to catch a glimpse of the let
tering.
So ouch of it was obleterated that
it was not an easy matter to insert
what was lacking. The following is
an exact copy of the note, or as much
of it as could be read :
“Sept. 27, 188!).—This—to fa—. I
shipped on Alba — last Ma— for
Uruguay. storm on 25th
completely wrecked our vessel and
all perished except me and Dame—.
' father 75(1 Chesnut St ,
Ph i 1 ad —. G od mercy thy
soul.” “M—. Richland.”
There are two words or parts of
woiuls in this communication that
are suggestive. The writer says that
he shipped on.,the “Alba— last
Ma—He may mean that he ship-;
ped on the Albatross last March.
To explain this sugestion the follow
ing is taken from the Charleston
News and Courier of recent date:
•‘Special inquiry was made in the
News and Courier yesterday about
the Albatross, which left tins port
more than a year ago. The Alba
tross was a bark which was owned at-
Stralsund. She was chartered in
188!) by Street Bros, for E. B, Merton
A Sons, of Baltimore. That firm had
the Albatross loaded in Charleston
wit’n lumber for Hutfrogel & Plet
tler. of Paysandur, Uruguay*. The
Albatross was cleared on March 18,
188!), aud she has not been heard of
since, except as stated in the offi
cial declaration of the loss made yes
terday , that she was spoken on May
13, in 5 latitude, 32 west longitude,
by the steamer Menes.
‘•Mr. Larsen, the shipping agent
of Street Bros., recalled the fact of
the departure of the Albatross yes
terday. and said that since then two
inquiries were received about the
vessel, one by Vice Consul Witte
aud the other by a banker in Phila
delphia. who had some of the paper!
of the captain of the Albatross. The
Albatross has been so long without
commn nicatii n with the rest of the
woild that she is now believed to
have been lost.
Any person who knows anything
further about the Albatross should
communicate the same either to the
| Royal Prussian Marine Court, 63
Heilgestrasse, Stralsund, or to Vice
Consul Witte, of this city.
This note, coming as it may from
some drowning man, will be preserv
|ed for future reference. The finding
jof it may* yet clear up a great mys
tery.
