The Maine Election ,Tho Principal
Topic.—Bloody Duel in Birming
ham.—Collision on The
Hudson Central.
Since Reed’s greet victory in
Maine he is on top of the brush pile.
The following telegram was sent out
from 'Washington last night:
Speaker Reed will come back in a
blaze of glory which will need no
fireworks or brass bands. His friends
will rally around him at his room in
the Shoreham and make him very
welcome. Naturally enough he will
find more friends on his return than
he had when he left for .Maine, for
his popularity here has increased
with the successive increases in his
majority. His glittering victory has
dazzled the eyes of the politicians,
coming as it did, so unexpectedly
and for the time being, at least
Speaker Reed is the foremost man in
his party. In the estimation of
Washington, where nothing succeeds
like success. Speaker Reed’s politi
cal fortunes, which might have been
ruined if he had drawn a blank, are
better than ever now, that he has
drawn a grand prize, and the crowd
is quick to recognize the fact.
A bloody duel occurred at Birm
ingham yesterday afternoon between
Thomas 11. Bennett, the warden of
the city prison, and William Harde
man, a locomotive engineer, in a sa
loon on First avenue. Bennett was
killed and Hardeman wounded. It
seems that an old feud in which a
disreputable woman named Fannie
Corbet figured, was at the bottom of
the difficulty. The men had quar
reled frequently and a conflict was
constantly expected. Both were
cool, fearless and brave as lions.
' They went heavily armed and associ
l at cd much with gamblers and saloon
men. When they met yesterday the
quarrel! was renewed, and Bennett
proposed that they fight it out.
Waiting Io |llar<le:nm to arm him
self, both men began firing almost
simultaneously, emptying their pis
tols before the shooting ceased.
Bennett was shot four times, one ball
penetrating the heart, producing in
stant death. Hardeman was shot in
the arm, but not badly.
Hardeman immediately gave him
self up to Sheriff Smith, in whose
custody he now is. He is net the
least troubled, saying he acted in
self-defense and that Bennett had
I <
been dogging him a long time.
Two passenger trains collided on
the Central Hudson railroad last ,
night near Troy, N. Y., caused by a 1
misplaced switch. Strange to say
no one was hurt.
The switchman causing the troub
le was a new hand who had taken
the place of a striker on the Troy
Union road.
Gov. Eagle yesterday issued a
proclamation ordering a special elec
' tion in the Second Arkansas district
to fill the vacancy caused by the un
seating of Congressman Brecken
ridge. The candidates are Major
Breckenridge and I. C. Langley,
Union Labor. The vote of the dis
trict at the recent election was: dem
ocratic, 4,076; fusion, 6,012.
Kentucky's Constitutional Con
vention was called to order by Gov.
Buckner at noon yesterday at Frank
fort, and temporary organization was
affected with Hon. George Washing
ton, of Newport, Ky., as chairman.
Tft- swearing in of delegates was
then taken up and completed, except
as to the contest in Washington
county, which will be taken up to
day.
There were eight or ten prominent
cotton buyers at the New York Cot
ton Exchange yesterday. They had
just arrived from Liverpool. Their
main mission is to the South, to look
over the cotton crop prospects and
to make i-ontracts for c tton for fu
ture del < iy.

abuse against Governor Gordon. .
TheJMasons in Americus are mak
ing arrangements to build a hand
some Masonic temple.
The race for sheriff in Fulton
county promises to be quite lively.
Three candidates have annouheed
themselves. The office is a very fat
one.
Messrs. E. G. Roane and G. B-
Lumnkin are having a lively time at
Athens calling each other liars and
uncomplimentary names. A fight
is expected.
Mv. John Coile. who was so terri
bly mangled by a driving wheel in
Madison county, a few days ago, is
dead. He could not survive the am
putation of his arm.
A receiver was appointed yester
day for Jeter and Camp, of Atlanta,
dealers in household furnishings.
Liabilities .$15,000 to $20,000; assets
estimated at aaout the same amoun*.
A special from Athens says: Miss
Annie Solimons, a lady about forty
years of age, attempted suicide Sun
day at her home near Lexington, by
shooting herself with a pistol. She
is said to be of weak mind and gives
no reason for the rash act.
Kit Bustian, the negro rapist, who
is now in jail at Newnan, will be
taken to the State penitentiary to
save his life. The people of Coweta
connty were so much incensed at the
commutation to life imprisonment
granted by the governor, that they
threaten to lynch Bustian.
The latest news from Screven coun
ty gives the proceedings of a county
mass-meeting held at Oliver on Sat
urday. Norwood was endorsed for
the senate. Gordon was declared
not in sympathy with the Alliance
and his course was condemned.
A special from Atlanta says:—A
bigamist in bard luck. That’s J. F.

tence for the crime was up to day.
He was at liberty the fractional part
of a minute only, whan he was ar
rested by a South Carolina sheriff
upon the same charge. He is also
wanted in Nortn Carolina for biga
my. The man’s career is decidedlj
out of the usual run.
’Gordon made a fine speech nt
Gainsville yesterday. His audience
was quite enthusiastic. At the clos
ing of the speech the following res
olution was unanimously adopted:— ,
“Be it resolved byhis mass meet- (
ing, that oqr senators and represon
atives in the next legislature be re
quested to cast their votes for Gen. ,
John B. Gordon for United States (
senator, as he is the undoubted
choice of the d emocracy of our conn
try-”
Superior Court Clerk’s Convention. ,
The clerks of the Superior (Jourts .
of Georgia will meet in convention at
the court house next Wednesday. ,
Mr. J. L. Beach says the atteu- |
dance will not be as large as was
at first anticipated, from the fact
that many of the courts are now in j
session and the clerks cannot leave. s
There will doubtless be a sufficient
number however, to make the con- g
vention a pleasant and beneficial
one.

A Shooting Affray Between Macon
Firemen.—Attempted Rape.
Special to The I’ost, j
Macon, Ga., Sept. 10. —A probably
fatal shooting affray occurred at the t
hook and ladder house yesterday
morning, between Mr. Ben Bowers of .
that company and Mr. John Vaughn '
of No. 2 fire company.
Five shots were fired from a pis
tol in the hands of Mr. Vaughn, all 1
taking effect in the body of Mr. 1
Bowers. It is thought he cannot
recover. j
The affair was caused by an alter t
cation occurring a few days ago, and
culminated as above stated.
Yesterday Mr. Vaughn called on (
Mr. Bowers for an apology, the latter
refused to make it and the fatal
shooting occurred.
I
Special to The Post, j
Macon, Ga., Sept. 10.—A rape was t
attempted on the person of a highly (
respected young lady of this city, by
a negro last night. A party of de- ‘
termined men are scouring the
country for the fiend, and if caught
he will, in all probability be lynched
Tho “Zoo.”
The article on the “Zoo” published c
in The Post yesterday has created c
some favorable comment.
The scheme proposed is quite sea- c
sible and there is no reason why it
should not be a success.
The lady who sent the communi a
cation to The Post will manage the ’
affair if the children will solicit do
nations.

BIG STOCKS. I
The Merchants of Brunswick;
Expect An Unusual Trade.
Extraordinary Large Socks of
Goods Have Purchased.
Better Grade of Goods
Than Usual.
“I have purchased a larger stock
of goods this season than ever be
fore.”
That is what all the enterprising
merchants of Brunswick say, when '
asked about the outlook for the com
ing season. |
When the goods that have been
recently purchased by our wide
awake merchants, are all in, the t
stores of Brunswick will compare
favorably with those of Atlanta,-Ma
< in and Savannah,
The time has come when the peo
ple demand a better class of goods, (
than that which satisfied them sev
eral years ago and the merchants
are glad of it. It is now a matter of ’
pride with them to see who can show
the best stock and otler the best in
ducements to intending purchasers.
Brunswick’s merchants are fully
abreast of the times, and it is not nec- '
essary for our citizens to go else
where to buy their goods, any and ’•
everything needed can be had right
here at home. (
There will be a lively competition
here in some lines, especially* in <
clothing and furnishing goods, but
‘competition is the life of trade,”
and the merchant who has induce- I
ments to offer need not fear getting
left.
Ihe stocks kept by the grocery- *
men cannot be surpassed anywhere
in the state. Brunswick has her
share of grocery stores too, but every
one seems to be making money. ,
Rah for Brunswick’s merchants!
