BRUNSWICK, GA., THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 18, 1890.
) TWO A WEEK.
Another Regular Steamar frorr
> New York.
‘ The Mallory Line’s Semi-weekb
Schedule to Go Into Effect
q Shortly Another Boom
For Brunswick.
S ....
■_ Beginning October 3d, the Mallory
Line will put on another steamer be
0 tween New York and this port, mak
- ing a semi-weekly schedule. Thi
] sailing days from New York will bt
1 Tuesday and Friday,and from Bruns
wick Wednesday and Saturday.
This important move is necessitated
g by the demands of shippers in the
productive territory tributary tc
- this city,
1 'Die immediate advantages to the
city will become apparent at a mo
ment’s glance. It insures all the
1 facilities pract'cally enjoyed by
points within a few hours’ ride of the
metropolis. Orders for goods can be
filled and delivery insured here on
- three days’ notice. Consequently,
Brunswick’s enterprising merchants
can guarantee the latest novelties
and freshest goods the markets of
the world afford. On perishable
goods, especially, this will insure
the facilities imperatively needed.
“We will be exceedingly busy' from
this time on,” said Agent Fuller to a
Post reporter. “Orders for unusual
ly heavy stocks have been placed by
business men ail through the interior
of the state. As soon as the cotton
begins to move' freely, the return
freights will easily keep up their
end.’
The scene of activity at the com
pany’s wharf showed that business
was on a boom. Merchandise of
every description loomed up, occupy
ing every inch of available space.
The bustle of teamsters and rousta
bouts gave the finishing touches to
the scene.
Another promising feature of the
new schedule will be the advantages
offerfell for travel during the coming
season. The indications point to a
heavy influx of visitors hitherward
during the fall and winter and the
contingent from the eastern and mid
dle states will undoubtedly surpass
any previous season. This will
prove the popular route for tourists,
health ami pleasure seekers. The
fame of Brunswick having gone
abroad, this city will be a favorite ob
jective point. After a delightful
sojourn in the coming metropolis of
the South Atlantic, points of inter
est in Florida and along the Gulf
can be reached by a choice of routes.
Let the good work go on.
Mr. Baach’s Condition.
The numerous friends of Clerk of
the superior court Beach have test! 11
ed their sympathy since the shooting
by their personal presence at the
wi.undel man’s roam. While Mr.
Beic.i would naturally be gratified by
their attentions, his physician with
due professional regard for the best in
terests of his patient, yesterday gave
orders to restrict the admission of
callers. This is to secure a much
needed condition of quiet and relieve
as far as possible the tension fol
lowing the shock. Only the immediate
circles of intimate friends will have
access to his room until convnlcs
cence is under way.
Mr. Beach is now resting quietly.
The wound this morning showed a
trace of inllamation on the surface
above the bullet, which is imbed led
a depth of about an inch in the cel
lular tissue. Dr. McMillan would
have extracated it immediately, but
Mr. Beach did not apprehend any
inconvenience from leaving it undis
turbed. His chances for being out
in a week or ten days are good.

TAKE OF A GRIPSACK.
The Drummer and Hotel Landlord
Exchanged Smiles.
Mr. T. B. Creech, of Orlanda, Fla.,
represents the wholesale house of
Carhart & Bro., New York, in this
' section. He is a veteran knight of
■ the gripsack, and the house he rep
resents is one of the oldest in that
■ line in New York engaged in the
southern trade. Away' back in the
’fifties they’ removed from Macon to
the metropolis, and the name is well
known in every hamlet in Georgia.
In making his periodical rounds
among the trade, Mr. Creech dropped
in on his Brunswick constituents
just a month ago, putting up. as
usual with Landlord Peterson, of the
Central hotel. During his tempo
rary sojourn on that occasion, the
drummer’s gripsack, with content a
valued at SSO, mysteriously disap
peared from his room. No trace of
jt was discovered prior to Mr.Creech’s
departure on his rounds, and the sit
uation gave promise of an interesting
lawsuit., involving the liability of
innkeepers, etc.
About the date referred to a young
man, W. H. Evans, representing
Collier, the instalment book publish
er, was also domiciled at the Cen
tral, Evans seems to have boen a
fair type of that well-known charac
ter, the “book agent.” His work
here didn’t seem to satisfy his prin
cipal, and about the period this nar
rative has to deal with, another rep
resentative of Collier, C. E. Short, ap
peared on the scene.
For good and sufficient reasons,
Evans soon made himself scarce, and
1 Short discovered that the other fel
low had been appropriating collec
tions made for the firm. Among the
I customers thus receiving the agent’s
thoughtful attention was Hugh Me-
Elya, a grocer on lower Bay street.
The grocer seems to have been capti
, vated by the wiles of the book agent,
for whep the latter casually came
around with a substantial-looking
valise, Mr. McElya didix’J, hesitate to
accommodate the book fiend with a
loan of sls, taking the grip as se
curity.
Short discovered the situation
when calling to make a collection ou
. the grocer’s order received through
Evans, Mr. McElya promptly
turned the valise over, and when Mr.
Creech arrived in town yesterday
’ his missing property awaited his ar
rival. The qputents were found in
tact, except a package of stamped
< eiivelopis. Mileage tickets over the
South Florida und J. T. K. W.
railroad, worth S2O, a new electric

the pilot on board the Egmout and
, every clerk ami sheriff in attendance
upon the convention was found at his
place on board and at 3 o’clock the
voyage to the island began.
It was a merry trip and was keenly
enjoyed by every one. When St. Si
mon’s was reached a rush was made
for the surf and in a few moments
cv< ry man iu the party was disport
ing himself in the briny waves of the
Atlantic. A shooting match was
the next number on the program of
amusements.
An old barrel served as a target
and fifty yards was the distance of
the shots. Mr. Stewart Davis won
the match by hitting the barrel three
limes. At 5 o’clock the excursion
returned to'.he city. Everyone ex
pressed himsef as being delighted
with the trip. The crowd then dis
persedto be gathered again at 9
o’clock around the festive boards at
the Ocean Hotel.
THE BANQUET.
At 9 o'clock the visitors with sev
eral of the most prominent of Brum
wick’s citizens had assembled in the

After serving this elegant repast
speach making was indulged in. Mr
W. E. Kaj’ was toast master. Mr.
Kay in bis own elegant way called
upon Mr. Jas. K. P. Carr of Savan
nah, the president of the convention,
to respond to the toast ‘-Our Distin
guished Visitors.” He replied in a
neat speech of five minutes which
was well received.
Col. Kay then introduced Mr. C. P.
Goodyear who responded to the toast
“Brunswick.” Mr. Goodyear’s
speach was eloquant throughout. He
said:—“Mr. President, I was clerk
of the superior court of Glynn county
for four years begining in 1870. I
am glad to see the clerks and sheriffs
gathering in convention. lam glad
to see them seeking to mutually
protect each other in the matter of
costs. lam glad to welcome you to
Brunswick, this great port upon
Georgia’s coast. This city is not
ours, but Georgia’s. It is your city
and you are welcome to it. Step in
and occupy it is all we ask.”
Mr. Goodyear’s speach dieted up
roarous applause.
Mr. J. S. King, of Upson, next re
sponded to the toast “Clerks of the
Superior Court.” Mr. King spoke
briefly on the subject of the collec
tion of insolvent costs. He predicted
the legislature would pass laws reg
ulating the collection of costs. His
remarks met with a hearty “amen”
from every clerk and sheriff present.
Mr. A. L. Groover then responded
to the “Bar of Georgia.” He de
cleared that the very kindliest rda
tions have existed, do now exist and
will always exist between the bur
and the* clerks and sherifl's.
“iIEOIRIIA judiciary”
was the next toast and was respond
od to by Mr. G. W. Bennett, He
paid a glowing tribute to the judici
ci ary. Th • msntiun of Judge Atkin
sous name was the signal f>r a tie
uiundous jnitburst of cheers. He
a begged of the clerk* to remein
ber the lawyers when they presented
the petition to the legislature.
“THE OFFICIAL STENOGRAPHER.”
! was the next theme discussed and
was responded to by Mr. I. Stacy,
tin* reporter. He paid a glowing
tribute to the clerks and sheriffs and
asked that the stenographers to > be
remembered in the petition to be pre
seated to the legislature.
“SHERIFFS OF GEORGIA.”

e of Telfair county. His words were
r well received.
