curious people collected around the re-
corder's court. When the cases were called
Recorder Freeman ordered the court
cleared This was found useless, as the de-
Saturday evening in the city market
house Mrs. Dobson assaulted Miss
! Walters with an umbrella and was be-
laborinR her very heavily when Officer
Garfield put stop to it by arresting both
| parties: The cause remains a secret, since
there was no investigation this morning.
! On the same evening at the same place and
| very near the same time the other difficulty
mentioned occurred Mrs. Wetherill came
! TO the market house, where she met Henry
Hair. Without further ado she commenced
| to belabor him with a whip. The case was
docketed and this morning Mr.. Hair was at
! court when il was called. Mrs Wetherill
was not, however, and the case against Mr..
Hair was dismissed. The cause Of this diff
Guilty IL not known on account c. the strict
secrecy with which the participants quad
their tongues.
Monday afternoon on the Metropolitan
street line or Macon three small white boys
who live near the road were crossing the
high trestle near the power house aud an
aged fee dog, apparently about 10 years
Old was attempting TO follow them. A
gentleman standing near warned them TO
get off the track as it was time for a car to
pass on its way to the city. The warning
came not minute too soon, for down the
steep grade loaded with passengers, came
the car at the rate Of twenty-five miles an
hour, aud the three little fellows scampered
down thei embankment; but the poor little
dog, who had probably been the pet OF
the household for many a year, was
too feeble to get off the track aud stood
there resigned to meet bis inevitable fate.
The youngest OF the trio, not more than
summers, glanced back and took in the
situation. Sorambllug up the embankment
he reached the track, and putting out his
arm grabbed his pet and pulled him over
the rail when the wheels Of the car was less
than two feet from his arm. The passengers
of the car held their breath when they saw
his intention and tried TO stop him, but it
was no use, and when the car Numbered by
and glance behind revealed the little fell
low sitting by the crossties safe and sound
with his decrepit pet in his arms, a cheer
went up that could be heard for more than
a mile around.
