the Macon Brewery.
BRUNSWICK, GA, May 2S.-Another
business war is on the tapis between Macon
and Brunswick. This time the ice COMMA
mics are taking the field. Brunswick's ioe
company is endeavoring to prevent the free
distribution here of the Macon Brewing
Company's ice by shipping to Macon and
selling ice at cost in that city. The story
Of this deal dates back to the time the Ma
con Brewing Company first commenced
giving all Brunswick saloons free ice with
their beer. Christian MoerIein's was the
first concern TO kick. doing SO by cutting
prices on beer. This cut was met by the
Macon brewery, and the war continued
until beer was sold at about
cost Finally matters were adjusted
and the cut rates stopped. Every one
thought thought that peace reigned, but to-
day the NEWS correspondent learned that
Supt. Langley Of the Brunswick Ice Com
pany had perfected arrangements 70 deliver
ice in Macon at s. 80 per ton, claiming 10
cut Macon's prices. a 70. be ia backed by
the Central Ice Company, who control a
number OF ice works in the south, aud the
result will be cheap ice for both Macon and
Brunswick this summer.

COLLEGE OF THE NEGROES.

Its Location at Athens Now Consid-
cred I'm probable.
ATHENS, GA, May 2S.-Athens may not
get the negro college, after all, even for the
three months. In the first place, she don't
want it; and in the second, it will hardly
be located in the colored public school
building on Baxter street. A member of
the board of education states that he has
never attended a meeting of that body at
which this permission was given, and the
proceedings are not legal unless a
whole board is present. A member
Of the city council states that Baxter street
school building is the property Of the city
and at the disposal of council. yet the
council knows nothing of the permission.
Athens is the Classic city of Georgia as she
stands to-day, but when you bring in the
negro college, she "ain't in it."

was going to heaven. Smelling murdered

The oyster, though very prolific she'll fish and widely distributed, has so many enemies and is so helpless to defend itself when young and tender, that it's chance of escaping extinction rests almost wholly upon it's cultivation and care by artificial methods. This fact has come to be so generally recognized in recent times that all nations on whose shores this delicious bivalve grows have legislated on it's be- half and made many experiments for in- creasing it's numbers. In spite, however, of all that has been done for it, there is still curious diversity of opinion as to it's nature and habits. Whether it Is hermaphroditic or bisexual has been warmly discussed, each contention having earnest adherents.

 Recorder Smyth of New York City is the terror of criminals. His words are few, but his sentences are ng-they mean years in prison. A few days ago q bunco-man of Chicago, who had decided that New York was his field to work, met Mir.

Fl forget just where it is," said the sharper, and the reply came: "I am still the recorder of the city and act as judge of the court of general sessions. You may have heard of Recorder Smyth, and I shall remember you when you are brought before me.

The officials of the weather bureau at Washington, desirous of making their work of the most possible practical value, will send daily telegrams to any person or company who will make known the forecasts by display of flags or by whistle signals. The interest in these forecasts is increasing, and in many places there are local societies for the study of meteor. ological phenomena. One of the first companies of the state to enter into hearty cooperation with the bureau in the work of bringing the forecasts before the pec- pie is the Colchester Rubber Company, of Colchester.

Lottery money sent through the mails continues to be a demoralizing temptation to postal clerks. It is not known how much that is sent to New Orleans is stolen, because most remitters do not dare complain of their losses for fear of the penalty for illegal use of the maile, but such complaints as are made indicate quite considerable number of thefts. This sort of thing is bound to continue as long as the lottery is tolerated, for no better chance of stealing from the mails without detection could be had.
