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.

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.
