Captain Tuther and Captain Storm cenerously offer to trans port tnid new oaie tree ot cnarge. Watscn, of Watson'a saloon, 14 Jef-'ersh- n btreet, yesterday received Iheflrs-- t ovfeterd of the season, in cans and on ice, well preserved, and as fresh as if just from tne sea. We tried a can, and can recommend tnetn to the pillule. Before daylight yesterday morning tmrglars entered U. i. fcuichiers store, at the corner of the old Baleigh road and Alabama street, stealing a large amount of eroceries. They effected an entrance by cutting through the weatherboarding and window-snutter- a. Dr. Beecher ha3 produced eight peaches weighing three pounds and eleven ounces. They crew in this city, and are simply enormous, and show what skilled orchardists can do in this country, if they only knew how, and had the industry and intelligence to at tend to frtnt trees. Unknown tuieves yesterday morn iuc stole a horse from Mr. James Curlin who lives on the Baleigh road near the city. UeDrge Xiennis and J. w. jsiadi gati were arrested on suspicion of steal tug the animal. A lot of silver-plate- d inoons were found m the possession o Had ig ah, who claims to have found them in the road. The windows of Strattori'B cotton oIHce, corner of Jefferson and Front streets, have been left open for two nights. Wednesday night a policeman entered by tne window and lit the gas- - to see if anything had been stolen. The police request the proprietors to have file windows closed at night, in order to prevent uueves irom havine an oppor tunity oi entering the room. Last night J. "Weiss fell from fliird-itor- y window above L Clerc's saloon, Main street, and landed head-for- e in. st on Uie tin root and awning. Dr. H. W. Jones was called in to see the in jured man who at a late hour was suf- - -- ering from symptoms or concussion of tne brain, and is now in a precarious condition. We have received the catalogue of tne li ret annual lair oi the Haywood county fair association, which will be held at Brownsville from October 21st t- - the 25th Knowing the energy and enterprise oi Brownsville and Haywood county, this first fair will doubtless be a happy inaugural ot many others there We trust the association will realize the good objects it so well deserves. Memphis is becoming quite famous in base-ba- ll proficiency. At least, once or twice a week matches are played on the Chelsea grounds, at which the young gentlemen composing the differ ent clubs about eight or ten manifest much interest. A match was played yesterday between the Eclipse and Arc tic clubs, resulting in a score qf nineteen ror the Jbcjipses, and rfwenty-sevr--n for the Arctics. The Arctics claim that they havii not been overscored in so long they have foi gotten the effects of defeat. Xight before last at the corner of Second and Concord streets, Julius Stephen, colored, and Mike Quenlin had a difficulty which resulted in the dangerous wounding of the latter, who was stabbed under the left ribs with a ppeket-knif- e. Both parties are about tfgnteen years or age, and been associated with each other. The difficulty was provoked bv Quenlin who cursed the negro and then struck .iim two or three times. Stephens was found yesterday hiding under hi3 niotber'a house on Winchester street, between Main and Front. Officer Alt discovered Stephens and hauled him out feet foremost.

A Great Deal of Time "Wasted Repeal of 1'rcTious Acts The Board at Cs and 7s. Tho Memphis board of education met last night, with Mr. Karris in tne cnair, and tbe following members present Messrs. Barnum, Cook, Fontaine, Gar vin. Irwin. Merrill, W. Z. MitcneH Miner and Wiggin. Mr. Cook moved to adjourn until the next regular term. An amendment by Mr. Barnum take a reces3 of fifteen mluutes was adopted. The appearance of Mx. Pierce const! tuted a quorum, and the board reassem bled and proceeded to business. In the absence of the report of the committee on the course or study, Air. Pierce offered the following resolution HThaf ttiA oltast nl tho nnum.i n 4. 1 . , It U Lilt. aUkJCV, V.

Mitchell moved to take up the action of the board in adopting Rob-bins- 's history, only eleven members hav- ing been present and one of them voting in the negative at the last meeting, Mr. Mitchell was ruled out of order. Mr. Barnum then made a speech on the subject of changing the course of Biuuy, so as to make it conrorm with the change in the text-book- s, Mr. Mitchell objected, to tbe resolu tion being in order as it sought change a settled rule, and this could not be done in the absence of a majori- ty of the board. Mr. Miner said it had been intimated mat it was desirable by some to ignore all settled rules, and to run the schools at hap-hazar- d, and that these standing luies mat. reguiateu tne last superin- tendent were deemed objectionable by tuese persons. Mr. Pierce denied that this was true and said that there were no btanding ruies reguiaung tne course oi study. He thought Mr. Miner had found a mare nest. It would be impracticable have standing rules for such persons. TDe chairman decided that it was necessary to suspend the rules change tbe text-boo- as well as change the course oi stuoy. unis is adjourned meeting, and tne board was ruiiy author ized adopt a course of study or text books. However, it required by section 64 that the majority of the entire board give its consent to the change. This was a regular rule. Mr. Pierce appealed from the decision the chair. Mr. Cook thought such construction an absurdity. The chairman stated that he reasoned from inference, and did not propose to discuss the question further with the legal gentleman from the fifth ward Mr. Cook thought the discussion of the proposition a fallacy. Mr. Barnum read from "section 58" of the rules. Mr. Pierce thought the board had been brought a practical absurdity by the decision of the chair, etc. If thb was a standing rule it had be made in writing and given the committee rules betore tbe board could take action on it, and as the schools met b fore an other meeting could be held, the change couiu not oe mane. The chairman explained his decision. that the question was legitimately be fore the board, but it required a majority oi tne entire uoara to enect tne cnange. Mr. Miner said tbe question bad al ready oeen reierred at a previous meet ing, and the committee did not report on the question, because they wanted nave the subject determined by them selves. The question was then voted on and the ruling of the chair sustained, the vote standing five for and five against tne appeal. Mr. Cook's amendment that the com mittee on teachers be added to the com mittee text-book- s, was, on his mo- - tt,i toVilo.1 tl.n l,a:- - ,nn l. L1 w u i muitu. in t. i. ii i.i i luiiug LUi.

Mr. Minor objecting necessitated action being taken, -- which resulted as above stated. W. Z. Mitchell offered an amendment that the course of study be only so far altered as to adapt them to the changes made in the text-boo- adopted by the ooaru. After a fruitless discussion, Mr. Mitch ell offered to add after text-boo- ks the provision, "the terms." This was ac cepted, aud the amendment was adopted The resolution as amended was then adopted. Mr. Mitchell moved that tbe secretary read the minutes of the previous meeting referring to the adoption of Mobbim'8 Jitstory, as then only eleven members were present, and one member voted nrainst iL y . Pierce thought'the question out of order, and ouiy a motion to reconsider the subject could bring it before the board. Mr. Barnum said twelve members only were present, but that one of the memoers retired irom the room and an- - o'her voted against the adoption of the ooo s. Mr. Fierce said he made the motion to adopt the book, and the vote was unani- mous, and if a member voting against bad permitted the chair to announce the decision, be did wrong, and the decision could not be altered now. Mr. Miner said be voted against the book, and on a call for a division, six voted for and four against the adoption of the book. The chair did not make any decision that night. This being an adjourned meeting, 4t was the same as the previous one, aud he had a right to call for tbe question now. Mr. Pierce gave a long history of the actioh of the previous meeting. The chair held that the question could not be received except by a motion to reconsider, but that the member had a right to record his vote in the negative. so as to be placed right on the records. The chair then decided the whole thing out of order, and the secretary read the minutes which showed the book bad been adopted. air. Mitchell moved to reconsider the ote at the last regular monthly meet ing adopting Jlobbins's Hiitory. The question being put, five votes were cast for and five against the mo tion, which was tuen adopted by the chair voting In the afflmative. i Mr. Pierce appealed from the decision of the chair. The appeal was seconded by Mr. Barnum. I he chair rose to explain. He said that it was a natural sequence that all meetings or parliamentary bodies re tained the power enabling thorn to dis cuss or deliberate upon previous ques tions. Mr. Merrill spoke of the slv manner in wnicn two or three books had been introduced. He characterized the action of the parties who had sought to intro pass down parents VlCKsburg. books in the adoption of which only a iew private persons were interested. 'ine appeal was voted on and lost. A motion to adopt Jlobbins's JEfiston in the high school was lost.

Mr. Fontaine offered the following: HesoU'ed, That in view of the proba ble early completion of the Clay street scboolbuilding, the building committee be empowere to contract for the ne- cessary furniture for eald building on tbe best term? possible. Mr, Fontaine said that in accord-- anco with tbe action of the board the building committee was author-ize- d to sell snfilcient bond3 for paying the debt due Mr. Juniper contractor for the erection of the CJay street fccboolbuilding. The committee had sold thirty bonds, from the proceeds of which they had been enabled to'pay an tne arcmiect's ceriuicates now uue. six thousand two hundred dollars, and that Mr. Juniper would proceed with the work. The committee had three or four bonds left, and had also paid Mr. Djyle's bill, for whLjh bonds, had been hypothecated. The committee had on baud three thousand dollar. Mr. Mitchell moved that the diplomas issued to the graduates of the high-scho- De regarded as grammar-grad- e certin-cate- s. Tbe resolution was withdrawn after being discussed. The petition of Timothy Sweeney, stating that he had been suspended, but was subsequently restored to his posi- tion as a teacher, and asking to be given the first vacant place a3 a male teacher in the public school, was read and re ferred to the committee on teachers.

Any old settler will tell you tho story. did not get off yesterday, but I' ft this It was in the summer of 1842 that the and steamer Nauvoo came steaming up to our levee. Her captain, Wm. Wiiwin, had purchased her or Joe Smith, the Mormon prophet. Cephas Goll and his brother Lloyd were her pilots, Thomas Oram was her engineer. A man named Kendalside was earpenter. No sooner had she lauded at the foot of Main street, whero deputy-sherif- f, Wm. Watts, stood Adrain Davenport wa sheriff", and lived in Rockingham than she was seized foi debt. Members of her crew entered suit for wages. The deputy took tho throttle valve from one of her engines, and locked it up in bW office and put a watcbrcreu on board. In the night, the two G:uN, Engineer Oruru, and Kemlalside went on board and told the watchman to jump ashore or go down the river with them. He Jumped ashore The engineer put a wooden throttle in the piaee of the one removed, and in a few minutes the steamer was moving for the south, with Cephas Goll in the pilothouse. Tne In- tention was to ruu her to Nauvoo, where the Golls thought they would havsa better show in collecting their wages. The watchman ran and awakened the deputy-sherit- l, who forthwith aroused a number of citizens, and armtd them as a jwsse. The small ferry steamer then In use was fired up, and soon was in pursuit of the Nauvoo. The ferry steamer neared her about twenty miles belowjtbe city, and Deputy Watts called to the pilot to stop. Cephas Goll was in the pilothouse, and, instead of stopping, he rang the fast bell. Watts ordered one Bard well, a carpenter in the employ of Nat Equirea, to shoot the pilot. Bard well took good aim with a rifle, and fired. Goll got out of the pilothouse, and crept on his hands and knees to the deck for fear of another shot, while the engineer stopped Ma engines. Boat and crew were brought back, and the crew were lodged in the little log jail. They were bailed out the next day. The trial never came off, the whole affair having been settled. The two Golls, Oram and Kendalside are dead. Captiin Wilson is now a member of the lumber firm of Knapp, Stout & Co., aud is immensely wealthy. The first shot by Bardwell grazed Goll's head. Another thing about Ce- phas GoU : He was the first pilot that everpracticed rounding to and coming through the Rock Island bridge stern-foremo- st for safety. And it was only in 1889, with the Tom Jasper, that he did it the first time. He ha3 been known to take a steamer up through tbe draw in the middle of the night reveral times, while other pilots were waiting for day- light before making the venture."

Tho Memphis board of education metlast night, with Mr. Karris in tne cnair,and tbe following members presentMessrs. Barnum, Cook, Fontaine, Garvin. Irwin. Merrill, W. Z. MitcneHMiner and Wiggin.

Mr. Cook moved to adjourn until thenext regular term.

An amendment by Mr. Barnumtake a reces3 of fifteen mluutes wasadopted.

The appearance of Mx. Pierce const!tuted a quorum, and the board reassembled and proceeded to business.

In the absence of the report of thecommittee on the course or study, Air.Pierce offered the following resolution

Mr. W. Z. Mitchell moved to take upthe action of the board in adopting Rob-bins- 's

history, only eleven members hav-ing been present and one of them votingin the negative at the last meeting,Mr. Mitchell was ruled out of order.

Mr. Barnum then made a speech onthe subject of changing the course ofBiuuy, so as to make it conrorm withthe change in the text-book- s,

Mr. Mitchell objected, to tbe resolution being in order as it soughtchange a settled rule, and this couldnot be done in the absence of a majori-ty of the board.

Mr. Miner said it had been intimatedmat it was desirable by some to ignoreall settled rules, and to run the schoolsat hap-hazar- d, and that these standingluies mat. reguiateu tne last superin-tendent were deemed objectionable bytuese persons.

Mr. Pierce denied that this was trueand said that there were no btandingruies reguiaung tne course oi study. Hethought Mr. Miner had found a marenest. It would be impracticablehave standing rules for such persons.

TDe chairman decided that it wasnecessary to suspend the rules changetbe text-boo- as well as change thecourse oi stuoy. unis is adjournedmeeting, and tne board was ruiiy authorized adopt a course of study or textbooks. However, it required by section64 that the majority of the entire boardgive its consent to the change. Thiswas a regular rule.

Mr. Pierce appealed from the decisionthe chair.

Mr. Cook thought such constructionan absurdity.

The chairman stated that he reasonedfrom inference, and did not propose todiscuss the question further with thelegal gentleman from the fifth ward

Mr. Cook thought the discussion ofthe proposition a fallacy.

Mr. Barnum read from "section 58" ofthe rules.

Mr. Pierce thought the board hadbeen brought a practical absurdity bythe decision of the chair, etc. If thbwas a standing rule it had be made inwriting and given the committeerules betore tbe board could take actionon it, and as the schools met b fore another meeting could be held, the changecouiu not oe mane.

The chairman explained his decision.that the question was legitimately before the board, but it required a majorityoi tne entire uoara to enect tne cnange.

Mr. Miner said tbe question bad already oeen reierred at a previous meeting, and the committee did not reporton the question, because they wantednave the subject determined by themselves.

The question was then voted on andthe ruling of the chair sustained, thevote standing five for and five againsttne appeal.

W. Z. Mitchell offered an amendmentthat the course of study be only so faraltered as to adapt them to the changesmade in the text-boo- adopted by theooaru.

After a fruitless discussion, Mr. Mitchell offered to add after text-boo- ks theprovision, "the terms." This was accepted, aud the amendment wasadopted

The resolution as amended was thenadopted.

Mr. Mitchell moved that tbe secretaryread the minutes of the previous meetingreferring to the adoption of Mobbim'8Jitstory, as then only eleven memberswere present, and one member votednrainst iLy . Pierce thought'the question out oforder, and ouiy a motion to reconsiderthe subject could bring it before theboard.

Mr. Barnum said twelve membersonly were present, but that one of thememoers retired irom the room and an--o'her voted against the adoption of theooo s.

Mr. Fierce said he made the motion toadopt the book, and the vote was unani-mous, and if a member voting againstbad permitted the chair to announce thedecision, be did wrong, and the decisioncould not be altered now.

Mr. Miner said be voted against thebook, and on a call for a division, sixvoted for and four against the adoptionof the book. The chair did not makeany decision that night. This being anadjourned meeting, 4t was the same asthe previous one, aud he had a right tocall for tbe question now.

Mr. Pierce gave a long history of theactioh of the previous meeting.

The chair held that the question couldnot be received except by a motion toreconsider, but that the member had aright to record his vote in the negative.so as to be placed right on the records.The chair then decided the whole thingout of order, and the secretary read theminutes which showed the book badbeen adopted.

air. Mitchell moved to reconsider theote at the last regular monthly meet

ing adopting Jlobbins's Hiitory.The question being put, five votes

were cast for and five against the motion, which was tuen adopted by thechair voting In the afflmative. i

Mr. Pierce appealed from the decisionof the chair. The appeal was secondedby Mr. Barnum.

I he chair rose to explain. He saidthat it was a natural sequence that allmeetings or parliamentary bodies retained the power enabling thorn to discuss or deliberate upon previous questions.

Mr. Merrill spoke of the slv mannerin wnicn two or three books had beenintroduced. He characterized the actionof the parties who had sought to intro

Mr. Cook said the course of the meeting in reconsidering the action of theprevious meeting, and nullifying theaction of visitors who were not then present.were doing them an Injustice. If themeeting was to continue such action hewould go and leave it without a quorum.

Mr, Fontaine said that in accord--

anco with tbe action of the boardthe building committee was author-ize- d

The committeehad sold thirty bonds, from the proceedsof which they had been enabled to'payan tne arcmiect's ceriuicates now uue.six thousand two hundred dollars, andthat Mr. Juniper would proceed withthe work. The committee had three orfour bonds left, and had also paid Mr.Djyle's bill, for whLjh bonds, had beenhypothecated. The committee had onbaud three thousand dollar.

Mr. Mitchell moved that the diplomasissued to the graduates of the high-scho-

Tbe resolution was withdrawnafter being discussed.

did not get off yesterday, but I' ft this It was in the summer of 1842 that the

and

steamer Nauvoo came steaming up toour levee. Her captain, Wm. Wiiwin,had purchased her or Joe Smith, theMormon prophet. Cephas Goll and hisbrother Lloyd were her pilots, Thomas

Oram was her engineer. A man namedKendalside was earpenter. No soonerhad she lauded at the foot of Mainstreet, whero deputy-sherif- f, Wm. Watts,stood Adrain Davenport wa sheriff",and lived in Rockingham than shewas seized foi debt. Members of hercrew entered suit for wages. Thedeputy took tho throttle valve from oneof her engines, and locked it up in bWoffice and put a watcbrcreu on board. Inthe night, the two G:uN, EngineerOruru, and Kemlalside went on boardand told the watchman to jump ashoreor go down the river with them. HeJumped ashore The engineer put awooden throttle in the piaee of the oneremoved, and in a few minutes thesteamer was moving for the south, withCephas Goll in the pilothouse. Tne In-

tention was to ruu her to Nauvoo, wherethe Golls thought they would havsabetter show in collecting their wages.The watchman ran and awakened thedeputy-sherit- l, who forthwith arouseda number of citizens, and armtdthem as a jwsse. The small ferrysteamer then In use was fired up, andsoon was in pursuit of the Nauvoo. Theferry steamer neared her about twentymiles belowjtbe city, and Deputy Wattscalled to the pilot to stop. Cephas Gollwas in the pilothouse, and, instead ofstopping, he rang the fast bell. Wattsordered one Bard well, a carpenter in theemploy of Nat Equirea, to shoot thepilot. Bard well took good aim with arifle, and fired. Goll got out of thepilothouse, and crept on his hands andknees to the deck for fear of anothershot, while the engineer stopped Maengines. Boat and crew werebrought back, and the crew were lodgedin the little log jail. They were bailedout the next day. The trial never cameoff, the whole affair having been settled.The two Golls, Oram and Kendalsideare dead. Captiin Wilson is now amember of the lumber firm of Knapp,Stout & Co., aud is immensely wealthy.The first shot by Bardwell grazed Goll'shead. Another thing about Ce-phas GoU : He was the first pilot thateverpracticed rounding to and comingthrough the Rock Island bridge stern-foremo- st

for safety. And it was only in1889, with the Tom Jasper, that he didit the first time. He ha3 been known totake a steamer up through tbe draw inthe middle of the night reveral times,while other pilots were waiting for day-light before making the venture."
