Sensational whipping Reported
From Ty-Ty-TiftOn News.
Triton, Ca, Aug. PA sensational
horse-whipping occurred at Ty-Ty. nine
miles west of Triton, yesterday, the
principals being prominent.
1t seems that one gentleman heard
the other had made some remarks
about his daughter, and in company
with his two sons, both grown, he
hunted the alleged defamer up. They
met on one of the principal streets of
the city, and the father, with a buggy
whip, proceeded to administer a fog
ging. The whipped man is said to have
made no resistance, and the other only
desisted when he was entirely salts
fed.
Norman Institute, at Norman Park,
opens for the fall term Thursday, Sept.
8. During the last term the ENROLL
ment reached the highest point attain
ed during It's history. The fall term
promises an increased attendance. Dur
ing vacation the dormitories have been
enlarged, increasing the capacity for
boarding students, and IL is proposed
to bore an artesiah well during the fall,
the contract for which has already been
let
Triton Lodge, Knights of Pythias, will
have an anniversary banquet the first
week in October These banquets, Of
which this Is the fourth, have always
been most successful affairs
A project is being formed for build
ing a graded road from Triton to Nor
man Park, in Colquitt county a dis
lance of seventeen miles. 1t is proposed
to use the bed of the Triton and Moul-
trie Railroad, which was an air line
between the two points. This road was
abandoned when the Pinopolis Saw
Mill Company sold out to the Triton,
Thomasville and Gulf and the track
has since been taken up.
AS the road has been abandoned by
its owners, they have forfeited any
claims they may have had to right-of-
way, and it is now proposed by citizens
of the two counties to ask the authori-
ties to establish a public road along
the grade.
The Triton Cotton Mills have closed
down for a few days to have gem
eral cleaning up and make repairs to
buildings and machinery. The mills
have been running on double time for
the past year, and these stops are nee
essary about once in two years.
The Tiff mills at this place have ship
ped over 100000 feet of dressed lumber
this week, the largest shipments going
to Chicago and West Palm Beach. This
is quite a sale for what is considered
the dull season.
Triton public schools open Monday.
Aug. 81, for the fall term. During va
cation the main building has been re-
painted and repaired. Two new teach
ers come this year, Prof. Tharp of Ma
con and Miss Bragdon of Richmond,
Va. Prof. Jason Scarborough remains
as principal.

Mrs Harrison Gucas Malet) has just
fused to allow a play to be made out of
her "Sir Richard Calmady." 1t will seem
strange to those who have read this power
full novel that anybody should have wished
to make such an experiment. How would

The sudden death last week of Hillery
Bell the New York dramatic critic, was
great shock to theatrical and newspaper
workers in the metropolis. Mr.. Bell was
one of the most popular writers on dra-
matte and music topics in the country. One
biographer has said of him that as writer
he was trenchant but good-humored. Wig
orous but not ponderous, and that all of his
utterances "were moved by exalted ideals
and possessed the energy OF sincerity At
the time of the initial presentation of De
Koven's opera, robin Hood" in New
York by the Bostonians Mr.. Bell was the
only critic who praised the work, every
other critic in the metropolis finding all
kinds of fault with IL. Here is an opera
that will prove a success for years to
come wrote Mr.. Bell. 1T won't last

aries. AS everybody knows, Mr.. Bells
prophecy proved correct. robin Hood is
the same old success to-day that it was
twelve years ago.
Tomasso Salvini, the greatest actor of the
last half century, if not of all time, is about
to take his farewell of the stage. according
to letter from Rome in a London paper.
He bade adieu to New York and London
years ago, and nobody thus far has been
able to induce him to say goodbye twice
over. He used TO denounce this practice as
a species of confidence game. and doubtless
he was perfectly right, but all admirers of
his genius would willingly absolve him
from all suspicion of fickleness or insincer-
ity for the sake of seeing him once more
upon the boards. He is an old man now,
having completed his seventy-fourth year,
but at latest accounts his physical vigor
was not perceptibly abated. If he could
not play Othelo with the elemental fury of
olden days, he would still have strength
