A Colored Man Killed on the g., F. and
W. Aast Night.
Shortly after O'Clock last night engine
No. 50 struck John Frazier Cc1lored) on the
Savannah Florida and Western railway
track, knocking him of aud killing him
instantly.
Engine No. 80 was on its way out to
Southover Junction, for the purpose
Of bringing in No. rs, the
Jacksonville express Engine No. 60 was
in charge of Engineer Boone, who states
that he did not see the man until he got
within cars length Of him, when the
headlight shone full on him. The accident
occurred within about one hundred yards
of the Belt Line bridge ON the west side, and
it was impOss BILE to see the man from the
cab of the engine, it being after nightfall,
and the engine was just turning the curve
when the light shone on two men going
west One of the men stepped off the track
ana the other was Knocked off by the engine,
which was So CLOSE onto him that it was
impossible to stop the engine, although En-
gineer Boone says that as soon as he discov-
cred the men ahead ne did all he could to
stop the engine, but its speed had not slack
enel before it truck the negro.
Master of Transportation jackson was
notified of the accident by Engineer Boone,
auu pOHceluhn WAS ulspa cneu TO the
scene to take charge of the body until the
coroner, who had also been notified, could
arrive, he being delayed by the Respess
inquest at the Central railroad depot. All
accounts agree that it was purely an acct
dent, and seemingly was from the mans
own carelessness, especially as his com
panion stepped Off the track as soon as the
whistle was blown.
Frazier was 90 years old, and lived on the
DeRenne place. Coroner Dixon investi-
gated the case and did not deem an inQuess
necessary. 1t appears that three whistles
were blown. and Frazier's companion
stepped from the track, but Frazier looked
around hewildered, and the accident fol-
lowed He leaves wife and two children.
The wife took charge Of the remains and
had Capt Dixon prepare them for burial.

THE NATTER OF TERMINALS
When asked what the Macon and Atlantic
had done or would do for terminal property
here, Mr.. Stanley said he could not sneak
authoritatively He had understood, how
ever, that the Macon and Atlantic had
options here, and that there will be no
trouble on that score. He had heard that
the South Bound has options on terminal
property, and such thing Is common
terminal property for the two systems
is not improbable. However, he added, II the
South Bound he'd let its option lapse the
Macon and Atlantic as he understood, had
an optionSn could act independently In the
matter. Mr.. Stanley said il is fact well
established that the Macon and Atlantic
is heading this way. and the contractors
are pushing men. who have contracted to
complete the entire road in five months.
The injunction will interfere with that
time, but a decision is expected from the
supreme court in October, and whichever
way it goes the work from Bruton TO Macon
will be then pushed as rapidly as possible.

railroad.
The Guyton correspondent of the MORN
ING NEWS says that while 1t is not known
positively that the road will select the route
recently surveyed by way of Guyton, it is
thought that the experimental survey,
which SHOWS the Guyton route to be 50 far
superior to the other line, will induce the
projectors to give Guyton the preference.
Mayor Sweat presided at the railroad

The Compromising to be Held Next
Month - Education and Politics.
The custom Of holding a camp-meeting
at Springfield annually has been in vogue
so long that it has now become one of the
institutions of the county. On account OF
the usually chilly and disagreeable weather
in October, the time of opening the meeting
has been changed TO Friday before the third
Sunday in September. This change will
not only prove more satisfactory, but IL
will considerably increase the attendance
Former residents of the county who now
reside in other parts Of the state usually
take this occasion 70 revisit again their
friends and relatives, and also affords them
an opportunity TO bear many Of the dis
tinguished pulpit orators Of the Methodist
church. aud many visitors of this kind are
expected, as usual
open on Sept 1, and everything promises
well for a full attendance. Prof. A. E.
Bird, with Miss Sallie Lawrence, as assist
ant, will have charge of the district high
school, while Mrs. T. W. Lanier will have
charge Of the Guyton academy.
Guyton can now boast OF FL st-class schools,
and the present corps of teachers is q guar
antee that the schools will be kept up to a
high standard.
IL is said efforts are being made to induce
the county democratic executive co nmittee
to postpone the primary election, called for
Sept. 8, TO later day to give the party an
opportunity to settle the differences said to
exist between the committee and the late
mass meetings.

ance as their candidate for the legislature,

A TRIUMPH IN PHARMACY.
A New Invention in Fluid Extract OF
Tea aud Coffee

1t is believed that E. K. Mccoy, assistant
keeper Of the city dispensAry, has struck
very large-sized bonanza. Pharmacists
and chemists have spent Thousands Of dol.
lars in the large cities Of the north trying
70 make an extract OF tea and coffee that
will not only retain the aroma Of the leaf
and grain, and at the same time keep with
out precipitation or impairment, but thus
far the experiments have been fat failures
Mr.. Mccoy claims TO have overcome all
obstacles and succeeded b. a process known
only to himself, and which invention be
proposes to protect by letters patent.
Samples Of the extract of tea and c flee
have been submitted to prominent retail
grocers on Whitaker street, and all Of them
say that Mr.. Mccoy has certainly succeeded
where others have failed. Samples were
shown MORNING News reporter yester-
day, and that the aroma Of the tea and cof-
fee has been preserved In the process Of
making the extracts cannot be doubted.
MIR. Mccoy began his experiments week
before last, taking half pound of tea, from
which he made his first extract. The expert
ment was so successful that IL was sug-
gested to him by grocer that IL he could
succeed with coffee as well as he had with
tea, bis fortune would be made. There's
no reason why the same results would not
follow" replied MIR. Mccoy. The grocer
theh gave mr.. Mccoy pound OF coffee,
from which he made pint of the extract,
which he says viii keep in any
climate. A teaspoonful Of the extract Of
tea will make glass of iced tea or a cup Of
warm tea. One has only to empty a
tsaspoonful Of the extract into cup of hot
water. and the liquid becomes a cup of tea.
Two teaspoonfuls of the coffee extract will
make cup Of coffee. There are 12S tea
spoons of the fluid to the pint, so that the
pint OF tea extract will make 12S cups full
OF tea, and the pint of coffee extract will
make sixty-four cups of coffee. The ordi-
nary pound of coffee, it is claimed, will
make but thirty-two cups Of coffee, and the
quality is not uniform
Mr.. Mccoy says that, not taking the item
OF labor into account. it requires a cost of
cents to the pound to make the extract,
but as the extract will go twice as far,
there will be economy In the use Of the ex-
tract besides the advantages arising from
the use of the fluid. After patenting his
invention Mr.. Mccoy will visit New York,
with view of arranging with a large
house there to manufacture the extracts,
giving him royalty. Offers have been
made to furnish the capital for manufact-
uring the extract, but the inventor says he
thinks that the royalty arising from It's
manufacture will give him less trouble and
bring him in satisfactory returns.
