Inc famous law suit known as the
hugnes case was settled at Macon Mon
gay. In or about the year 1877, Hayden
hughes, a very wealthy citizen of Bibb
county, made a will deciding $4,000 to
three negroes. Afterward, about 1880, he
made second deed, reducing the origi-
MAJ oeed TO $4,000. In each deed Messrs.
l. y. and Robert Plant were appointed
trustees. The suit was brought by Col.
u. q. Hughes to set aside the deed of
1850, and the attorneys for defense an
sWered with the deed of 1877. Finally a
settlement was effected, giving the COM
plainants $4,000 and leaving $40, 900 in the
hands OF the original benedciaries Of the
deed, and Monday decree was taken in
accordance with the settlement.

OIL the sinking of the steamer Ellis. She
was coming up the river. and about 10 80
O'Clock those on board felt a considerable
shock, so violent, indeed. that some of the
passengers who were standing up were
thrown to the floor. The master at once
ordered the pilot to run the steamer to
the shore. This was done as quickly as
possible, and all on board reached the
bank safely. They had hardly reached
the shore before the vessel went down,
with one side in about 16 feet of water.
She keeled over to one side, and most of
her cargo was dumped into the river. She
was heavily loaded, and all that was
saved of the freight was about 60 cases Of
oysters. There were about IL passengers
aboard. The night was very dark, and
the sinking of the steamer was caused by
striking a snag. Heber Fry was pilot
ting at the time of the disaster. 1t is not
known whether she can be raised or not.

DANGER SIGNAL.

When person gives you counterfeit money
he perpetrates crime against the law and
your peclnlary interests; but when ne gives
you an inferior and dangerous medicine in the
place OF one of recognized and well-known
curative properties, he commits the blacklist
OF crimes, for he conspires against your health
and life.
The New York Herald, Sept. q, 1885, says;
ITO indorse a counterfeit medicine is to in
iure the manufacturer and the buyer, and the
buyers will soon drop away from coun-
forfeited medicine that they find worthless.
Manufacturers of counterfeit articles fail be-
cause they have not the experience and ap-
paratus OF the large manufacturer to produce
the same curative results. The large manu-
factUrers have the utmost incentive, while
they are protected, to make their medicine as
perfect and curative as possible
For example, take the experience OF Sim
mons Liver Regulator, prepared 0yJ H. Zellin
& Co., of Philadelphia; this firm has devoted
years Of time, employed the most eminent
chemists of the land, and spont thousands OF
dollars in bringing their medicine to the per-

atlanta Cor. Macon (GG.) Telegraph.
The appointment of Judge Boynton to
succeed Judge Stewart in the Flint cir.
cult is creating considerable gossip. 1t
has certainly taken Judge Boynton out of
the way of Gov. McDanieps aspirations
to succeed himself in the executive Office,
for the Judge himself told me that he
would not be a candidate for Governor
while he was Judge. Gov. Mcdaniel is
doing all he can to win his nomination
and election. He is good enough tenn
perance man TO suit the most ultra pro-
hlbitionists; and it is thought he will have
the backing OF the railroads. These
points, strengthened by Boynton's being
provided for, which will give him Boyn-

ton by other candidates.

Some Characters mt the Exposition

From an illustrated psper on the New
Orleans Exposition, BY Eugene v. Smallev in
the June Century, we quote the following
anecdotes OF some Of the types seen at the
fair; 1.-The odd characters at the fair are the
terror of exhibitors. A Cincinnati furniture
maker discovered = countrymen from Arksn-
sas whi,tling handsome mahogany cabinet,
to see what the wood was like The mans
knowledge Of furniture was evidently limited
to articles which could not be damaged BY a
reasonable use of a jsc k.knife. Another ex-
hibitor, who had up room with the finest
specimens of his art. was Mortified to find an
old LADY eating her lunch of fried chicken
seated in one Of his satin upholstered chairs.
What's the cheer good for II It amt to set
down IMP she placidly remarked. in reply to
his earnest request that she would go some
where else with her vituals. The same ex.
hibitor one day found that some visitor to his
alcoves had left token of approval on the
polished surface of a costly mantle, in the
words This is pretty good scratched with a
knife.
The Turks who sell olive-wood, beads,
and other trinkets from Jeiusalem'-all
made in Pars--are picturesque additions to
the permanent personnel of the fair, though
their Genuineness, like that of their wares
will not always bear inspection. An anus.
ing scene occurred one day at one of these
Oriental bsxaars. A tall man. with rural
air, stopped hstore the stand and appeared to
take lively interest, not In the goods, hut in
the seatrres OF one of the statesmen in scarlet
fex and bsggv trousers. He surveyed the
Oriental in front and in profile, and then,
slapping him on the shoulder, exclaimed,
Hello, Jake, when did you come from Indi-
anay The Turk from Indiana acknowledged
his old acquaintance and begged that he
would not give him away"

70 dispose Of them In any other way.
The dainty utilization of scraps is a
subject that well repays the thoughtful
study OF any house. and even the least
original cook can often "evolve from her
inner consciousness an appetizing dish

or appreciate that 1t is In the minor econo-

Another dainty dish. which appeared

German Military Punishments.

In room arrest the offender is confined
to his own quarters. He is not allowed to
leave them without permission. nor to re-
ceive visitors. When arrest is enforced
against Captains or subalterns. particu-
lar 70 om may be set apart for the purpose,
but in this event it is called severe room
arrest. and is judicial, not disciplinary
punishment. During room arrest, as dur
ing all similar restrictions on liberty, the
offending officer can neither carry arms
nor wear any decorations which he may
possess. When, however, he has obtained
permission to leave his room he is allowed
to carry his sword. When an officer is
sentenced to room arrest his sword is re-
ceived by another and delivered over to
the governor or commandant of the fort !;
in simple room arrest, however. a SUPERB
or officer exercising the least disciplinary
power receives and retains his arms. This
duty usually falls to the adjuiant. but il
he be not present the arms may remain in
the house or apartments of the offender.
In simple room arrest the officer is again
confined to his own residence, and is not
allowed to receive visitors. If, however,
R occupy house in common with other
people he may mix with them as usual A
married man, therefore, is not separated
from his family while the visits of his doc
tor are always allowed. Any doubtful
points are decided by a superior officer,
who in urgent cases may permit access to
a few persons. Open.air exercise is usu-
ally allowed after the first IA days. con.
| finement, but if his doctor declare such
exercise to be essential to health before
that time the arrested officer is permitted
to leave his house for an hour daily under
the supervision of an equal or superior in
rank. The attention of every officer SEN
fenced to simple room arrest is directed
by superior to regulation in the Miiitar
Strdfgesetzbuch, which says: "Any officer
who during room arrest shall leave his
quarters on his own responsibility will be
punished with six months imprisonment
and dismissed from service. Any officer
who during room arrest shall receive a
visit on his own responsibility will be
punished with six months Imprisonment
and in serious cases with dismissal from
service" These laws are founded on the
idea that we should be able to RELY on the
officer implicitly to obey regulations for
the maintenance of discipline. If he do
not he betrays a sacred trust and sets an
example to interiors in rank which must
have the worst possible effects. - The
