{ Coal OIL JoHNNY.'-s'Coal Oil John
ny" was a character we'll known throughout
the country many years ago, when OIL was
first discovered along the Allegheny River,
in Pennsylvania. He was the son of a far
mer in Venango county-an honest lad who
had never been outside of his county, and
had never seen a railroad train or telegraph
line in his life. He was satisfied with his
humble lot, and tended his steers and chop
ped his wood in happiness. When the oil
excitement came his fathers farm was rich
in wells, and fortune flowed In on the sur
prised family by the hundreds of thousands.
The old man did not long survive his good
luck, and the young country boy came into
a vast fortune. 1t is not surprising that it
turned his head. He started at Franklin,
then enlarged his world by going to Pitts
burg, then to Philadelphia, and, finally,
New York was the only place large enough
for him. He bought gold watches, he COW
cred himself with diamonds and launched
into al! the coarse pleasures that were sug-
gested to his vulgar tastes. He threw
money away. If he liked "a hackman he set
him up in business; he bought suits Of
clothing for tramps and beggars, and squan-
dered his easily gotten money as foolishly
as the prince in the fable. Finally his re-
ceipts fell off and gradually his capital melt
ed away. What he had not squandered the
parasites about him had absorbed. His
money was gone, his bills could not be met
His lite property was sold at a terrible
sacrifice. Then his personal property fol-
lowed-his horses, his carriages, his dogs,
his watches and his diamonds. With his
money and his horses and his diamonds
went his friends also. He was penniless
and alone. He went to work like an honest
boy for awhile, but he had not the strength
of will to fight an honest battle with toll
and hardship and he gave up work. Little
has been heard of Goal Oil Johnny for
several years. A two line paragraph in
a newspaper ends this strange, %eventful his
tory. Goal Oil Johnny is now in prison
in Cincinnati on a charge Of robbing a
countryman. Mem York Star.

The Big Meteor in Georgia.

The night was very dark, but the skies
were perfectly cloudless and brilliant. Sud
denly an intense light lit the city, as if by
magic the buildings around, the trees and
every leaf sprang out of the gloom and quiz
cred In the weird radiance that shone upon
them. The glow was different from any
light we have ever seen; it was not the light
of the sun, the MOON, nor did it resemble
gaslight. 1t was nearer the electric light
than any, yet a thousand times more pow
erful. In an instant the trees were pictur-
ed on the ground, and slowly their black
shadows moved past our feet and heightened
behind us. Instantly every face was turned
upward, and striking apparition met the
view. Not a star left, but directly above,
at the zenith, a great mass of fire whirled
in the air. 1t r~evolved in the center of the
radiance, Incompatible, and moved slowly
down the northwestern sky with majestic
grandeur. At forty-fve degrees elevation
the light changed to a brilliant red, paled
into saffron and then into all the shades of
green.
AS it began to change its hues it emitted
particles or balls of fire that followed or lin
gered in its wake. Surrounding it also
IN this stage, was a vapor OF smoke that re-
flected all the colors through which the ball
had changed. At thirty degrees elevation
the light went out. Three minutes glided
away, then there burst upon the ear a deep
toned boom, that rose and fell in reverbera-
tlons for thirty seconds. h sound had a
metallic ring to it not heard In thunder.
So brilliant was the light that people were
awakened in their houses, and sprang from
their beds in alarm.
1t produced quite a fright also among the
negroes in the city and county, many of
whom thought the final end had come. Sew
eral gentlemen heard the explosion and felt
the earth tremble. At Hawkinsville, forty
miles south of here, the meteor was observ-
ed, the rumbling heard and a shock felt.
The phenomenon was observed forty miles
north and south of Macon.

TERRIBLE HARDSHIPs OF A RAILROAD

TERRIBLE HARDsHIPs OF A RAILROAD
SURVEY PARTY Fort Stockton, 7eras,
.Jme 3O.-Major r. j. Lawrence and corps,
of the Texas and Pacific Railroad, after a
number of days of extreme suffering from
thirst in the White Sand Hills, arrived at
pecos river without loss Of life. Some
stock and wagons we're abandoned at diff
ferent intervals for forty miles. Those first
arriving at the river went in search of the
others. A number when found were crazed
by thirst, and had nearly stripped them
selves. They were found within 100 yards
of the Pecos river, drinking the blood of
animals they had slain. Some men were
almost blind. Arriving at the river they
plunged in head foremost; but for the
bravery Of the most experienced a large
number would have persisted. The bodies
of Roberts and Rodriguez were found near
the Pecos river a few days ago, with live
bullet holes in Roberts's body and Rod
r%iquez's brains lying on the ground. They
had evidently killed each other.ss s.

STORM ALONG THE rom tht
correspondence of the Danville Ne1cs, We
CLEAN that the storm on Tuesday of last
week did great damage along the valley Of
the Dan. A negro church In Milton wa.
unroofed: DR.. Stamps lost a barn. and across
the river a darkey's head was broken. In
I aswell a negro girl, about eleven years OF
age, was killed instantly by a tree falling on
her. on the premeses Of Mr.. John Hodges.
Mr. Robert Hodges had three barns destroy
ed: Mr.. e.. A. Travis. three; \. +. Hodges,
one. and Col. f.. b. WitherS, one.
Great destruction to wheat and oats in
the shocks, and some TO stacks: one. that OF
Mr.. G.. W. lates being blown to atoms. Mr..
Tommy Ray had his granary and two tobac-
co barns blown down.
L know | will not exaggerate when say,
| saw more than fifty trees that had been
bown dOwn between Pelham and Reidsvllle.
Houses had been overturned. barns unroof-
ed, fences completely scattered, and tele-
graph wires blown entirely from their poles
At Reidsville, the storm was equally as bad.
The fine brick tobacco factory belonging to
Motley Wright Il Co., and the elegant dry
house OF Lindsay Harri Il Co., were com
pletely unrooted. These buildings were
comparatively new-and one of them, by
far. the finest tobacco factory In the place.
Besides this, no other serious damage
Immediately done; except the knocking down
Of an old colored man by a large door being
blown against him, rendering him uncon-
sciOus. r 1850
One man was taken up by the wind and
carried some twenty feet, and tunfbled on
his back. but entirely without injury. j
suppose he is happy.
considerable damage was lone by the
storm Tuesday night. Reports from diff
fpraDf nartC Of tho toprntv foil of n ono< ro
done to houses and orchards. Mr.. Young
blood, of Steele Creek. informs us that in
that township an old gin belonging to r.
e. Kendrick, was damaged, and that the
dwelling house of Mr.. H. A. Walker was
injured also that Mr.. Jas. Neely's barn was
struck by tightening and two mules killed
The storm seems to have been travelling due
East in that portion Of the county. At Mr..
Calvin Bells a cabin full of negroes was
Blow over, but none Of them were injured.
Charlotte Democrat.
The Monroe Enquirer says: On Tuesday
evening one of the most violent storms pas
sed over this section that we have witness
ed in several years, though IN town little
damage was done, except a partial unroof-
ing Of Mr.. H. II. Houston's brick store.
A good many trees twisted Oft, fences
blown down &c. The force Of the wind
seems to have been grea .er North West Of
town. A young lady, Ida Helms, living
near Matthews Station was struck by a fall
ing tree, which produced a fracture Of the
skull. At last accounts she was still alive
but the attending physician thought her
chances for recovery very doubtful.
Matthews. thirty five trees blown within
half mile of town. One tree three feet
through was twisted off near the ground
and several large pines were twisted off
from ten to fifteen feet above the ground.
one Clubhouse barn and two out houses
blown down, one small house burned down
during the storm"
