The Testimony Concluded and the Argument Be
gun—To be Given to the Jury To-Day.
Special to Enquirer-Sun.
Hamilton, Ga., October 14- In Harris superior
court this morning the trial of the case of the
State vs. S. M. Dixon, charged with the killing of
J. O. Christian, was resumed and tie testimony
for the state completed. The defense introduced
no testimony except the statement of the de
fendant, after which court took a recess for din
ner.
The evening session was devoted to argument
of the case. It was agreed between counsel to
have two speeches on each side. W. A. Little
opened for the defense in a speech of one hour
and a half,which was an able and exhaustive argu
ment. He dove-tailed the evidence to show that
there was no malice or anger, implied or express
ed. II. C. Ca meron spoke two hours for the state.
It was probably the finest argument he has
ever made, which is saying a great deal.
Court adjourned till 8 a. m. to-morrow, when
Major Parks, of Greenville, will resume argument
for the state, and Gov. Smith will close for the
defense. The friends of the prisoner are confi
dent of an acquittal.
He is » Southern Man.
Recently some complaint has been made that
the superintendent of the Young Men’s Christian
Association building in this city was from the
north. He was not objected to merely because
he was thought to be from the north, but because
it was thought that there were plenty of south
ern men that might have been appointed. Mr.
C. T. Walters, the superintendent, is a southern
man, he having been born and reared in Balti
more. He came to Atlanta from Columbus, and
was for a while assistant superintendent of the
new cupitol. He was highly recommended as a
man suited to hold the position of superintend
ent, and he is giving entire satisfaction.—Atlanta
Constitution.
The friends of Mr. Walters in this city, where
he lived several years, can testify that he is a
thorough southern gentleman and fhlly compe
tent to perform the work that has been entrusted
to him,
A Burglar Arrested.
On Tuesday the Enquirer-Sun mentioned the
fact that the residences of Mr. E. W. Joiues and
Coleman Davis, colored, on Rose Hill, had beeu
burglarized Sunday night. Among the articles
stolen from Mr. Joines’ residence was nearly 200
nickels. On Wednesday the police heard that a
negro named Willis McAffee was spending
nickels freely, and yesterday they succeeded in
capturing him. He denied his guilt, but articles
were found in his possession which were identi
fied by Mr. Joiues and Davis. Davis also testi
fied that McAfee looked very much like the
negro who jumped from his window on the
night of the burglary. After hearing the case
CoLWilkiiiB sent the prisoner tqifM- 1 in delimit
LILLIAN LEWIS.
A Brief Sketch of a New and BcnutiPul Star.
The stage of Springer’s opera house will be
graced Tuetdiy and Wednesday evenings with,if
reports do not lie, a very beautiful and talented
actress. Miss Lillian Lewis comes to Columbus
a comparative stranger to our theatre-goers, yet
those who have read the dramatic columns of the
daily press the past few months cannot help but
have noticed reports of the very great success of
this young and talented actress. Miss Lewis lias
been scarcely flveyears uponjthe stage,yet durin;,
that time has made a very flattering reputation.
■ first work of note was in the support of Jas.
O’Neill, of Monte Cristo fame. She afterwards
supported in loading roles Edwin Booth and the
ln.e John McCullough, and for a season was the
star of “Only a Farmet ’3 Daughter” company.
Last season she became an independent star,
and with the double advantage of beauty and
talent became an instant success. She made the
role of “ Cora” in “ The Creole” a version of “Ar
ticle 47” her leading feature, and so pronounced
a success was she in New York and Chicago that
the press of that city pronounced her America
only rival of Clara Morris. During last season
Miss Lewis played the role Jive cousecuti
weeks in Chicago, three in New York, two in
Boston, two in Louisville, and a week each in
Cincinnati, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Pittsburg, besides all the principal cities. She
should certainly draw a Urn* house here, as she
is considered b> Manager Foley one of the best
attractions he has booked this season She i
supported by a company said to be above th
mge.

are never too busy to give information or show
our goods, whether you buy or not. In the last
few days we have received a lot of the prettiest
and best made Tooth Brushes to be obtained
specially imported for our trade. So much
trouble is experienced from the bristles coming
out of brushes. In the one we are offering tlnV.
objection is obviated.
We are now headquarters for the Oakley Soap
and Perfumery Company, and have on display a
magnificent line of their goods we are selling at
living prices. Our stock of Hair, Tocth, Nail and
Scrubbing Brushes, Ivory, Celluloid, Rubber and
Horn Combs, Whisp Brooms, Clothes and Black

every style, make and price always on hand. We
stock every new preparation in the Drug, Chemi
cal, Patent Medicine, Perftime, Soap or Toilet
line as soon as brought to notice. Many articles
can be found in our varied stock that cannot be
obtained from other sources.
To the smoking public let us say we have re
cently received large additions to this depart
ment, and we think there is no stock of Cigars
in this section equal in quality to ours.
Recent heavy additions to our Toilet Goods
line now gives us the largest, most meritorious
and prettiest line in Columbus. We shall con

Give us a call, let us price you our goods, and we

TOWN LOTS
For Kale at W’averly Hall, Georgia.
We will offer for sale on November 1st, 188P, at*
the above mentioned place, immediately on the
line of the Georgia Midland and Gulf railroad (a
new road that is being built from Columbus to
Athens, Ga., connecting with the Central, East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia, Richmond and
Danville railroads). Lots suitable for building
residences, stores, etc. Waverly Hall is situated in
the “garden spot” of Georgia, farming lands
yielding above an average. The best school and
church advantages already established. Society
is as good as any city in Georgia or elsewhere.
People are alive to anything progressive, and
willing to lend a helping hand to any who may
locate in our midst. It is one of the best trade
points in Harris county, being thickly populated
already, and only needs the new railroad now
being builtto make it the nicest town in the state.
Healthfullness of the place is unexcelled. Water
the best. Between 2500 and 5000 bales of cotton
will be. shipped from this point coming season.
This alone will “be worth the consideration of
thoughtful business men who wish to do a good
business without having any heavy expense. Td •
those who wish to give their children the very
best educational advantages, our people especial
ly ask them to come and locate among us. All
parents are well aware of the advantage of edu
cating their children in the country than in the
cities in a moral point of view. Lots will bo

der. Any further information or inquiries will
be cheerfully answered by applying to
