Young Whitehead Has
Miraculous Escape
From Death.
Special to Tbe Georgian.
Augusta, Go.. July 3.—Jim White
head, the 13-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. William Whitehead, escaped death
Sunday afternoon' In thlB city In a
most miraculous manner, when a bolt
of lightning struck the ; fhtnlly resi
dence, the young man having been
seated on tho front porch.
The Incident happened about 5
o'clock In the afternoon, and at tho
time the sun was shining, although
a little rain waa falling, a cloud having
Just passed over. Suddenly there waa
blinding flash, and It was several
minutes before any of the occupants
of the house were In a condition to
what Injury had been done.
The bolt had struck a chlnaberry
tree, at the comer of the plana, and
knocked out tho top. It then passed
over to the house. The celling was all
tom from the top of-the veranda, nil
tho posts wrenched from their sockets,
banisters wrecked, weatherboarding
torn loose nnd the plastering knocked
from tho walls of ithe front room. The
planks of tho wall against which young
Whitehead was leaning were ripped off
nnd thrown a great distance. The
overhead celling was also shattered, the
shirt worn by the lad wna completely
r it !i fr .in his body, yst not a scratch on
his arm or body can be seen, and he
was struck by but one of the falling
Portions of the celling of the pla.szn
wero strewn 50 yards away, while one
of the supporting pillars, a post, was
driven through an adjoining fence.
The capers cut by the lightning bolt
are tho most remarkable and mysteri
ous that ever visited this section, and
are the chief top(c of conversation.

CAPITOL IN NEED
OE
KEEPER HALL CALL8 ATTENTION
TO DILAPIDATED STATE
OF AFFAIR8.
Keeper of Public Bulldlnge and
Grounds James A. Hall call* attention
In his annual-report to the Inadequacy
of the Insurance carried on the etate’e
buildings, and to the dilapidated-con
dition of the state capllol.
Under a general schedule the state
carries ttlO.OSf Insurance on Its va
rious properties, and other specific In
surance carries the total up to about
51,000,000. The property of the state
requiring Insurance Is now probably
worth 55,000,000.
The Insurance contracts expire on
January 6, 1007, and new five-year
contract, will be necessary. Mr. Hall
states that If the general assembly de
sires Insurance for something like 76
per cent of the value of state property,
a 510,000 appropriation will be neces
sary. If only 60 per cent, 556,000 will
be needed.
He calls attention to the constantly
Increasing necessity for repairs to ths
cspltol. The executive mansion, which
Is old and defective. Is especially cost
ly to keep In habitable condlton. Mr.
Hall Intimates that a new executive
mansion |a necessary. ,
Among the badly needed repairs In
the eapltol building that Mr. Hall calls
attention to Is the office of the rail
road commission especially. The plas
tering over tbe galleries of the senate
and legislative chambers Is In serious
condition, and the roof Is Isaky.
During 1006 repairs to the executive
mansion and the eapltol cost 52,500.60,
leaving a deficit of 55,711.11. At least
51,000 Is needed to remove the deficit
outstanding. Attention Is caUed to
heavy Increase In the cost of material
for making these repairs.

FOR 8TATE UNIVERSITY,
Tho rain Monday afternoon had a
tendency to mako the state agricul
tural collcgo grow, as thsre was a full
attendancs of the membere of the com
mittee on general agriculture, before
whom Chancellor Dave Harrow and
"eterili "f til,' nun, ... ,,f the Hint-'
University appeared to urgo the pass
age of tho bill to appropriate 5100.000
for erecting a building at the univer
sity to be devoted to tho study of ag
riculture.
"1 often wonder," said Chancellor
Barrow In addressing the committee,
"why I was selscted as chancsllor of
the university, I have been out of
the state to a large city but one time,
end that waa to'Washington, our na
tional capital. I am narrow-minded, I
fesr, for I believe that to become a
great American one must first need,
be a greot Georgian.
"Gentlemen," pointing to tho per
spective drawn by Charles W. Leavitt
of the university campus, experiment
station and agricultural farm, "we
have here the greats* oMednlty
that a Georgian can offer to her eons
4 am narrow, but 1 wleh to see Geor
gians own the lend of our state, and
unleas we embrace this opportunity
foreigner, will come Into our state and
reap He great wealth.
'•we have here,” slid Chancellor
Harrow, "approximately 1,000 acres of
land In a section which stands way up
In the cotton-producing counties of
Georgia. It Is a grsat opportunity to
offsr ths sons of this state ths greatest
advantage which may ever come with
in your power. I know s man, a grad -
uate of ths unlvsrslty, who failed SB
a lawyer, foiled ee a clerk, and la to
day making, with his brother, 88,000
each on their rented farm. What do
you euppoae those men could have
dona had they received an education
os farmers?
"Ill tell you," concluded Chancellor
Barrow, "that as Ood Is my Judge, 1
would esteem It an honor to resign
my position aa chancellor of the uni
versity to become the head of this ag
ricultural collage If I were capacitated
to become Its head.”
Short addresses were also made by
Judge E 11. Callaway, llarvle Jordan.
