rIed before Judge Wood, who sent
him 20 jail IN default of ball to an

The following Is the programme for
The next meeting of the Chautauqua

7. Music---Instrumental solo. Miss

The Monday nights meeting of the
Chautauqua was of unusual interest
and profit. Alter members had re-
spondcd to roll cali by giving some
item of national interest, we were en-
tcrtained by a beautiful duct by
Misses Hyatt and McCarter. Mr.. ID.
F. Morrison then read his paper enti-
tied "ls Modern Civilization Substan-
tial p Mr.. Morrison's paper was
lengthy, enc hour being consumed in
reading it, but it was listened TO,
throughout, with close attention, and
eylnccd a thorough acquaintance with
the history of nations II intense
thought on the part of the author.
The vocal solo by Miss Anna Carter,
and a cornet solo by President Hunt
ington, both of which were very good
and much enjoyed, completed the eve
ning's entertainment. The committee
appointed one week ago reported, the
substance of their report being: That
we offer the trustees of the Academy
a monthly rental of four dollars for
the use of the Hall. The report was
adopted. In view of the fact that we
reap no pecuniarY benefit from our
occupancy OF the Hall, and that all
entertainments, lectures, ETC., are free,
this proposition must commend itself
to every one as a very liberal one on
the part Of the Circle.

PROBABLY DROWNED.

On last Saturday morning, Mr.. p.
d. White, formerly a merchant OF
New Orleans, went ont in 4 small sail
boat on u rlc dsurc trip, aud also for
exercise, and il Is stated that when
near Horn I-land his boat was seen to
turn over. The morning in question
was very hhrcatning. and towards
evening the wind blew Ia ittul gusts
and with great force, even making the
progress OF pedestrians 4 very diff
cult matter, and il is almost beyond
pcradVenture that he was drowned,
as The clements at the time of MIR.
Whites departure were very perni-
cious. Several parties have been out
in seach of the missing man or his
boat but up tothis time no ridI"gs of
either.
Mr.. White came here from New Or.
leans about eight months SINCE, and on
The day he probably took his last and
fatal boat ride, he dressed himself
neatly, putting on his watch, bade his
wife goodbye, and jumping into his
boat sailed away. Ills family, which
is quite large, are, of course, deeply
distrcs sed al the absence OF the hus-
band aud father, but we hope ere an
other sun shall Gid the west that he
whom they seek shall ON back TO
them safe aud well.

brides father. DIR. +. w. Gustine, an old
and respected physician of this city, Mr.,
AUGUSTUS CRAFT, a prominent young
merchant of New Orleans, was married to
Miss ELvINA A. CUISINE. IA charming and
accomplished society lady. The wedding
was private IN consequences of the i'll
ness of the brides father. Following the
ceremony, all excellent supper was spread,
and after partaking oft the young cou-
pie departed with the good wishes of those
present, for Havana. Cnba.-Ne0 On leans

Another fraud. calling

Another fraud, calling himself
Anderson, victimized some of our in
nocents during last week. He repre-
scented himself as the agent of Adam
Glass, of Mobile. lie put fine furni-
ture at such a price he to make some
of our people feel like buying out his
entire stock. When he struck those
who were not IN need of furniture,
hc had a fine sample stock of jewelry
which he was selling as the agent OF
Mr.. Poetz, of Mobile. He delivered
no goods, but simply exhibited sam-
pies. When he received an order he
always exacted three dOllare to insure
these goods being taken when deliv-
ed. This eBterprising genius pocket
cd between three aud four hundred
dollars, aud the innocents can now
conc TO the depot and get the conso-
ling answer that their goods have not
arrived yet. We have often caution
ed our people against these frauds
gratis, but now since they have paid
for their folly, perhaps they will be
more cautions in the future. We
don't feel sorry a bit for those who
lost money BY this fraud.
DIR. W. f. Hyer, Of Meridian,
President Of the Stale Board OF
Health, accompanied by DIR. J. w.
Boauett. gave US a pleasant call Thurs
day morning.

Tho schooncrs Magnolia and Rich

The Dewes& and cheapest thing in
town is those silk umbrellas and par
asols at W. NJ. Canty's.
A man, claiming to be deaf and
dumb, was circulating Il paper on our
streets Monday, asking for assistance
to enable him to get to New Orleans.
He succeeded in getting some two or
three dollars, on which he became
%glorlouslY drunk.
Through s<'Ssae cause a failure was
made in hauling out tho schooner
Palos on Blanchard's ways as was
stated in these columns last week.
therefore She was taken 10 FrcntZ's
ship yard where she is undergoing the
necessary repairs for which she was
brought here.
Col. A. G. Steele, County Asses
sor, informs us that he Ia making SLOW
progress with his work. The 'dear
people, do not:rcspond to his efforts,
but seem disposed TO blame him as an
individual for the fact that they have
to pay taxes. How strange sonlc poo
pie will act.

In making an excavation duling
the past week to put down the foun-
dation for the mill of Hunter, Bcnn
& Co., the workmen have struck upon
what seems to have been an old grave
yard, and several skeletons and parts
of skeletons, have been brought to
light. Some seem to have been of gil
gantic proportions. Our oldest clti-
zens seem to know nothing of this
piece of ground ever having been
used for any such purpose. The sup
position is, that they must be the re-
mains OF the Pascagoula and Biloxi
Indians.
