I can afford to do thD, as it is a well known fact that I only credit such people as I can collect out of, whether they want to pay or not. In other words they must have property, or give good security. I 1 sell t. o close to take chances. My motto has always been boiled down in these two magic words:—“Under buy, then Under sell” anybody, at any and all tines. Paving a large capital at my command, I take ad vantage of all bargains, ami buy largely when goods are cheap, and give ray customers the advantage when pikes go up. I give you a few prices to show yon where I stand. PRICES FOR MONDAY, SEP. I ST. Fresh Sugar Corn, new and tender, 2 cans for 15 cents Red, ripe TomaU'es, full weight. 2 cans for 15 cents. Good table Butter, only 25 cents ! a pound. Best Patent Flour, only 80 cents a sack, (does your grocer sell at these prices?) And every article ia the grocery line is at the same reduction. I intend, to sell you your goods whether you want to bny from me or not. It is to your interest to save all you can, and my store is the only one that offers any kind of induce ments to you. Remember I am the original and only cheap cash grocery house. The others are all tine and fancy grocers. They don’t want to bother with working people, (like I do,) but wish to cater to an aristrocratic dead beat pay-when-you can class. Life is too short for me to work for nothin’, and there is no music so sweet, on earth to me, as the click of the real omnipotent coin. I mean business. I want your trade. I will sell you cheaper, and give you better goods, (I have all kinds, from the best to the cheapest) better satisfac tion and quicker delivery, as I run two delivery wagons, when you buy goods from me, and want them for dinner, you will get them without fail. 1 never disappoint. Don’t let anyone fool you by making out that they will undersell me. I have as much at stake as theyhave.They can't do it, I pay cash for my goods and every article I sell increases iny stock. They sell on credit, and what they loose on a dead beat they hope to *■ make up on you, and will, if you don’t watch them. For your own satisfaction come and try my store for one or two bills, and convince yourself that I can do that which I claim, and you will always trade with me. 1 eeldon.Jose a customer and to show you how my business ■’•■l‘fc.grown in the last mouth, 1 have Breikifty-four regular cash <yi# I daily visiting list for The ( omit. run in <• 'nne< the old pith and and is strict')'' {| Or t while, and see 35 pen's. works?

AU About the Lake Shore SStrike— Beaten to Death by Her Hus band Murdered His Daughter—A Duel. Minneapolis, Aug. 29. —The case of six of the enumerators charged with conspiracy to pad the Minne apolis census, were called up before United States Commissioner O’Dell yesterday. United States District Attorney Baxter considered Com missioner O'Dell biased on account of being a Minneapolis man, and re fused to prosecute, but issued a new warrant returnable before Commis sioner Moore, of Winona, at St. Paul. Mr. Hart, for the defense, protested against that move. Mr. Baxter said that the action was taken under the directions of the Department of Justice at Washington. This reply* made Attorney Hart angry, and he called upon the spectators to tar and feather the district attorney. The crowd applauded, but made no move to act. The commissioner did not rebuke this incendiary outbreak. Mr. Baxter refuses to prosecute until the cases are transferred, and O'Dell refuses to adjourn court. The court was still in session at a late hour. Six deputy marshals, heavily armed, are in the court room prepared to act in case any attempt is made to harm the district attorney. THE LAKE SHORE’S STRIKE. Chicago, 111., Aug. 29.—Out of twenty-three engines that should be working in the Lake Shore and Mich igan Southern yards today onlj’ three are at work. The passenger trains are all running on time. About sixty switchmen, belonging to the night and day forces of the Lake Shore railroad, held a confer ence. Superintendent Amsden, who was present, explained to the men the circumstances under which the night forces struck last night. He asked them whether they intended to stand by the company or the strikers. Thirty-four out of the sixty men present decided to side with the strikers. Two engines were then sent to “Packingtown” to work if needed there, and the remaining en gines are at work in the Lake Shore yards. beaten to death by her husband. Macon, Ga., Aug. 29—A crime of peculiar atrocity is reported from Chattahoochee county. Mrs. Cook, wife of a well to-do farmer, died last week. She had been in delicate health for a long time but the sus picion arose that her death was not the result of purely natural causes. Her body was exhumed and an au topsy made, and an inquest held, re sulting in a verdict that Mrs. Cook bad been beaten to ueath by her husband, Henry Cook. It appears that the inhuman husband brutually whipped his wife while she was ill in bed, causing her death. There are fears of lynching. MURDERED HIS DAUGHTER. New York, Aug. 29.—A special to the Sun from Louisville, Ky., says: Ace Madison living near Brownsville, Edmonson count}', shot and killed his 16 year old daughter last Satur day. He had previously attempted her life. No cause for the deed is known except settled hatred of the girl. MaiLson fled hut he is pursued and will probably be lynched when i captured. I A DUEL WITH SWORDS. Paris, Aug. 29.—A duel was , fought nsar Belfast yesterday be tween Lieutenants Millot and Barui. The wepons were swords. Lieu. Mil ■ lot received a severe slash on the arm.

THE COMMITTEE RETURNS. Aiderman O’Connor Talks About At lantic City's.Svstem of Sewerage. Mayor Spears and Aidermen Mad den and O’Connor, the committee appointed by the cit; co'uncil to visit Atlantic City and inspect the West system of sewerage in opera tion in that place, returned this morning. Concerning tne trip Ai derman O’Connor said: “We reached Atlantic City last Tuesday and spent only one day in the place. Os course all our time was occupied in the inspection of the city’s sewerage.” “Well, what did you think of it?” asked a Post reporter. “Oh, the system is an excellent one there's no doubt about that. We will, however, recommend the adop tion of one or two alterations for the system soon to be constructs. You ’ see there are very few ideas or works i of man that cannot be iff proved on. i I feel satisfied that flic system will be the best one Brunswick could i adopt.” At the next meeting of the city ’ council the committee, already re- ■ ferred to, will report favorably on I the West system of sewerage. This ■ report, embracing, as it will, certain i improvements that the committee , will recommend, will be received and i adopted and work upon.the system i will commence as soon as the city ordinances will allow excavations to be made. Mr. W. Scott West, president of the National Sewerage and Sewage Utilization company, and from whom the system takes its name,will remain here several months superin tending the work. Mr. West inti mated to a Post reporter sometime ago that he contemplated purchas ing a lot and building a winter hoifie on St. -Simon's. He was of the opinion that no more delightful place, for summer and winter could be found, than St. Simon’s island. 3— 1 ( Most Laughable Indeed “Oh! I had a heap of fun yester day,"said oflleer heavy this morning. “How was that?” asked a Post reporter. “Well, you see, I was on the boat bound for St. Simon’s. The majori ty of the passengers were country folk and 1 became very much inter . ested while listening to their com ments on their new experiences. Fin ily as the boat was passing buoy 1 No. 8, one of the women yelled out, ‘See there John, we’ve come eight miles already.’ ‘Yes, thats' the mile post,’ answered John in a kind of careless way. That was mighty funny but I soon heard something better. While passing near the old sand bar, some fellow chanced to see a large turtle, an 1 turning t > n coin arda, said: ‘That must be a iner maid. I've hearn talk o' sich things but never seed one afore.’ 1.11 tell you 1 had to move into another apartment of the boat asd take a good laugh.’ She Was Nabbed Again. Annie Pepper was arrested again last night for creating a disturbance on Grant street. She was up before Judge Whitfield last week on the same charge, but by mistake was discharged from custody. The re colder will doubtless remember the circumstances and recompense her for her coming.

The First Artesian Well in 1884. Professor White’s Analysis of the Water.—Other Wells Fol low.-575 Gal. per Minute. Brunswick is certainly a city of artesian wells, and it may be aptly said that nothing has so improved the general health of the city as ar tesian water. Six years ago the only resource for water supply was in the driven well, water being reached at depths varying from thirteen to fifty feet. No certain supply could be found less than thirty-five miles away, and the expense of conducting it to the city was so great that the idea was abandoned. In 1884 the mayor and council, after much deliberation, undertook the experiment of boring an artesian well. The first well, bored in Hano ver park, was dug to a depth of 3134 feet, when a vein of artesian water was struck, throwing to the surface sixty gallons a minute of perfectly pure water. The water was impreg nated with a sulphur gas, giving it a slight smell and taste of sulphur when first taken from the well, but. which was soon dissipated by expo sure to the air. A sample flask of the water was sent to Professor 11. C. Whit?, the state chemist. In addi tion to his chemical analysis, which can be seen at the fountain in Hano ver park. Professor White appended the following remarks: ‘ This water is an excellent drink ing water of extreme purity. The contents of mineral matter dissolved is hardly sufficient to entitle the water to be ranked as‘mineral water' proper, although the mineral salts present doubtless impart mild min oral properties to the water. Os these salts the most important are the carbonate of soda and the sul phate of soda, the relative propor lions which are unusual for an arte sian or ordinary water. These, to gether with tiie sulphate of magne sia, give the water a mild, alkaline purgative, character, much prized in stronger waters for certain classes of diseases. The water is admirably suited to all ordinary domestic pur poses.” “Respectfully, H. C. White, State (’bemist." But one well was not enough to solve the water supply, problem and the city authorities determined to try the experiment again at the in tersection of F and Newcastle streets. At a depth of 418 feet an almost un precedented flow of equally’ pure water was struck flowing as much as 400 gallons per minute and issu ing a stream strong enough to run a good size mill. Indeed, the natural flow was carried in pipes forty eight above the ground, fully solving the great problem that had confronted the city and thoroughly’ indicating the wisdo’ ■ and public spirit of the mayor and council. So successful were these two first digging that other wells were- sunk from time to time. Especially has this been the case since the cost has been reduced to such a nominal sum. The first individual who owned his own well for domestic use was Col. C. P. Goodyear. In this he was soon followed by Mr. T. W. Dexter. Os all the wells in this immediate locality that one giving the greatest flow is locate I at the works of the Pioneer Compress company. The flow of this well is 575 gallons to the minute. This well is followed by that one at the intersection of Fand Newcastle street which, as has al ready bean stated, gives out 400 gal lons per minute. The well of the Oglethorpe hotel comes next with a flow of 375 gallons. In this connection it will not be amiss to mention some other wells in close proximity to Brunswick. On St. Simon’s two wells yield copious flows, ns also upon Jekyl ami Cumb erland islands. This is pre eminent ly a city <>f artesian streams, us no attempt at securing water has yet failed. Probably the most striking illus* i 1 r ation of the medicinal properties of I this water wis Um cure of the Hon. ’ Frank Haralson, who came here a i’tlfl'vrer from i»i ute Infl-imatory i lieu matiani, His stay only lasted three w<eka, and he return dl a A’, I lunt < sound and well, For pure arUsiau w <ter to |Bru„wia*. YESTERDAY ON ST. SIMON’S. In the Shooting Tournament the Glynns Win Another Victory. That the Bed Men’s excursion K was a success goes without sayiug. It was a great day of enjoyment to all who attended. Yesterday’s aeount of the excur sion as appeared in The Post, went . into the details of the day up to noon. , After enjoy ing an elegant repast, the three gun clubs assembled pre 1 paratory to shooting the tram match, t Each team was required to put up SSO and then the shooting begun. s The Waycross team, composed of Williams, McWhorter, Newton, Al- t berlon and Barnes, went to the score i first. They were followed by the i , j Glynn gun club, composed of Nelson, < , \ Dart, Dußose, Tucker and dußignon. ■ l| ° : Last came the Forest City gun club, ] k I with the following gunners: McAl- ] pin, campsen, Rocker, Woeltjen and ] Jaugstetter. , The result of the contest was an i other victory for the Glynns. The ; shooting was so miserably poor that the clubs arja ashamed to see the i score in print. That fact, however, : din’nt prevent the gunners from hav- 1 ing a grand time. One of the rrost interesting feat- 1 uresofthc day’s entertainment was < the rifle contest. 1 here was several 1 entries from members of the gun I clubs and the citizens. The best i I score was fifteen, nnd was made by < Mr. A. 11. Baker. The prize was a i gold headed umbrella valued at $lO. A tired and happy throng were the excursionists when they returned i , from the island last night. The day : was a social anil financial success.

Howard boards with Peters and for some time past baa been behind in his board bill. Last night Peters demanded a settlement of the ac count which was refused by How ard. After some words were passed, Howard left. He was followed by Peters. About 1 o’clock, Jast night * Howard was returning home and while passing through a skirt of woods just beyond the brewery was attacked by Peters. Howard said to a reporter: “I was going home to settle with Peters and get my valise. While passing through the woods near the brewery I came upon Peters suddenly.
