To the Editor of the Eagle
The passage of the bill by the legis-
lature legalizing the acts Of the ID. Nj.
& A. railroad, has. worked marked
Improvement i'm the business feeling
of this place. Property is beginning to
change hands, and owners are talking
up new enterprises. This is one of
the very best locations for good
town. The farming country is the
same here as around Wichita, and that
is good enough. 1t is high, slightly,
and healthy location, a new place
property cheap, good school. churches,
good mill, and plenty of opportunity
for more business concerns, without
OVERRIDING. We need another good
general store, and, the party with cepi-
tai enough to start one, and business
experience to run it, will find this
point worth looking over.
We have an abundance of the finest
building stone in Kansas, brick
clay, fire-clay ana bed of red min
erai paint, all in sight, and just as
gosd a show for coal as anybody.
With two railroads added to all these,
it should not be hard TO demonstrate
that parties looking for new town
to grow up with can find it right here,
and that too in the midst of one of
the best counties in Kansas.
Since the milder weather, business
has improved and our streets are
daily full of teams.
Farmers are fearful that the ex-
IRENE cold has injured the peach trees:
we hope not.
Our real estate men are receiving
letters of inquiry from the north.
The severe weather up there makes
them turn their eyes southwark.
We have a good dramatic club that
have given us some nice entertain
ments this winter.
Chess has broken out here and
promises to become popular.
Our brass band has reorganized, got
in some good material and are busy
practicing.
We have several secret societies and
in a flourishing condition. The Masons
are Just organizing with strong
force. j. G..

JOE NORTHCUTT NOMINATED.

The 35th Senatorial Convention
re-assembled in Atlanta last Thurs

ard and give him a unanimous vote,

MIGGINS PREDICTION.

DIR. Virgins, of Ontario, who
claims that he predicted the Charles
ton earthquake, has made another
prediction of an earthquake 20 take
place about , o'clock in the afternoon
of the 10Th inst. He says it will be
preceded on the Goth and 9th by II
terrific storm in New England, and
the 18th it would probably be fine,
the lull that precedes the storm. He
says the upheayai will be greater in
force than the recent Charleston
earthquake and the destruction to
property would be terrible. Jack
sonyille, Fla, Macon, Atlanta, Mo-
Gle, New OLleans, Baton Rouge,
Houston, San Antonio and Calves
ton would all be more or less dam
aged. lie predicts thai New Orleans,
Macon and Mobile will be ruined, as
these cities were right in the path of
the subterranean and meteorological
phenomena. lie says this submarine
uphcayal would be produced by the
shifting Of the earth 5 centre of gray
ity, and this displacement would be
brought about by a conjunction of Ju-
piter, Saturn, Mars, and our two sa-
telltes-one being the visible and the
other the invisible moon. The latter
is discovery of DR., Virgins. He
thinks on the 10Th inst. several new
volcanoes will burst out in Central
and South America.
Virgins may be able to tell about
storms, but he has not the supernat.
ural power to tell the cause or the
advent of earthquakes. Nobody need
feel alarmed

GEORGIA GLEANINGS.

A white convict recently escaped
from a gang working on the Georgia
Midland Railroad. A bloodhound
was put on his trail and afterward
found manacled to tree with the
conyict's shackles. Two new dogs
were started after him, and when
they caught him he made friends
with them, and traded them to ne
gro woman for his dinner. He has
not been caught yet.
Last week, near Allison's turpen-
tine still in Wilcox county, two ne
groes were walking through the
woods, about hundred yards apart,
when one of them called to the other
to come to him, and stated that he
had been bitten by a snake. He
turned to go to his assistance, but
had not proceeded half the distance
when he saw a large rattlesnake and
killed it. Proceeding On he found
another large rattlesnake about
dozen yards from the first. This one
he also killed. When he arrived
where his comrade lay, he found him
dead and another large rattlesnake
near him, which he also dispatched.
A house, with four children, was
burned to the ground on A. A. Meals
plantation in Wilkes county Wednes-
day. The house was the home of
Anthony Fortson, his wife and tour
children, the oldest about nine years
old and the youngest two. While
the negroes were all at church the
house burned down and the children
with it. The house was not locked
as is usually the case, and it can not
be understood why the children did
not escape. 1t is thought that per-
haps they died from suffocation.
When the distressed father reached
the burning house the top had fallen
in, and the floor had fallen to the
ground. The four charred bodies of
the children were found all huddled
together just below the spot where
they hac gone to sleep.
A few days since, as Miss Hattie,
daughter of Judge Bennett, was com
ing from the Judges farm, two miles
from Quitman, she encountered a
huge rattlesnake in the middle of the
road. 1t is not generally known that
Miss Hattie goes armed, but it seems
that on this occasion she was not on
Iy equal to the emergency, but was
armed for the fray. The horse was
stopped, and telling her companion
to hold him quiet, she drew Smith
d Wesson 32-calibre and alighting
from the buggy opened fire on his
snakeship. The battle was a lively
one, and the sharp crack Of the pis-
tol repeatedly awakened the echoes of
the surrounding forest. Miss Hattie
was victorious and the huge snake
was brought to town and exhibited as
a trophy of her prowess.
