It would be a good idea for the county Commissioners to send some money in apprehending the parties who robed and beat up ELI JOHNSON and his wife. No greater crime has ever committed in Lamar County. They should be run down, and given a fair trail and a few feet of rope to stretch. Without some pay for their trouble, men cannot take time to ferret out and get up evidence and capture the perpetrators of the deed. The affair is somewhat a mystery and will take some good work to get the matter worked up. If this think is let go it will license others to do likewise and who the next victim will be no one can tell. In this week issue will be found the semi-annual publication of receipts and disbursements by the court of county commissioners. The disbursements will strike the tax payers as being moderate and very conservative and with but few place to put in complaints. Our board of commissioners are very cautious in the way of spending the public funds.

HOUSE and CHARITY C. BLALOCK; DENNIS A. WHEELER and ROSIE HARPER; R. M. WOODS and M. E. WEATHERS Mr. A. J. COLEMAN of Molloy who received second prize in our New Year distribution has been confined to his bed for several days with a painful affection of the spine. The report of the Commissioners as published this week gives the actual claims against the county, and not just the claims that have been paid by the Treasurer. So it is plain that Lamar County is out of debt with a balance in treasury. The prize Sewing Machine, which Dr. W. L. MORTON received in our New Year distribution has been on exhibition at the store of R. W. COBB for several days, and has been pronounced a first class machine, in style, finish and workmanship by every one. The Showalter Musical Club, met again on last Friday night, and permanently organized by adopting rules and by-laws. Under the Constitution as adopted the Club is to be known as The Bradley Musical Club so named in honor of our distinguished townsman, Hon. R. L. BRADLEY. A name which would reflect more honor on the club could not have been selected as Mr. BRADLEY is a distinguished musician as well as an able statesman. A SERIOUS AFFRAY ON last Saturday night the young men of the Institute met for their regular weekly debate, and ruing the evening something occurred which offended OWEN PENNINGTON, son of Tax Collector J. E. PENNINGTON. After the debate was finished the boys scattered leaving a small number on the grounds. Young PENNINGTON made some insulting remark to GILBERT WIMBERLY, son of ex-Treasurer WIMBERLY, who told PENNINGTON if he repeated the remark he would knock him down. PENNINGTON repeated the language and WIMBERLY struck him, whereupon PENNINGTON struck WIMBERLY with a knife inflicting a serious wound in the left side about the lower part of the lung. After the first blow had passed friends separated them and WIMBERLY with some companions walked about two hundred yards to his home, and sitting down said “let’s see how bad I’m cut.” Which was the first his companion knew of his being hurt. Dr. M. W. MORTON was called in and dressed the wound and pronounced it not necessarily of a serious character, but said the knife might have touched the lung slightly. At present the young is doing well and we hope will soon-------- SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS State of Alabama, Lamar County Commissioner’s Court Below will be found the semi-annual publication of receipts and disbursements by the Court of County Commissioners from the 2nd day of July 1888, to the 2nd day of January 1889.
