Rome, Ga., Dec. 8.—At 5 o’clock yes terday afternoon, at the Wooten livery stable, on Broad street, W. 8. Bishop, overseer on the plantation of Hamilton arancey, at Cedar Bluff, Ala., was shot and seriously wounded by Leslie Poole, a half-brother of Bishop's wife. Leslie Poole and- S. C. Lindsay, both of East Rome, went Into the livery sta ble to take a drink, where they met Bishop. Poole and Bishop walked off bo the rear of the stable together. Shortly afterwards the reports of a . istol was heard, and Bishop came back to the street with blood streaming from him. He walked up the street to the office of Dr. C. Hamilton, two blocks away, where his wounds were dressed, and he was afterwards sent to the hos pital of Dr. Hamilton. Three serious wounds were inflicted, the bulletB lodging In Bishop's body. Poole said: “Bishop Insulted my wife seven or eight months ago and this is the first time I had seen him since the time. We had a difficulty, but there were’ no shots fired. The place on Bishop's cheek is where I struck him with my fist. I heard a report, but thought. It was a mule kicking in a stall.” The trial of Lester Poole, which was tp havo come up before Recorder Spul- lock this morning, has been postponed until Monday, on account of the ab sence of one of tha witnesses. The wounded man Is thought this morning to be out of danger, unless some unforeseen complication arises. TECH CALLS FOR HELP IN THE TIME OF NEED Continued from Page One.

J.—In It* mwirer to charges of excessive freight rates »n furniture shipment*, and complaint!) against Ohs character of cars furnished for such shipment*, the Southern rall- wny. In a statement tiled with the In terstate commerce commission, says that no reasonable Objection can be made to the character of cars supplied t» furniture inanufucturer*. The road tsserts that the freight charges arc no higher than they should be. The complaints were tiled by Geor- iia furniture dealers and others In the 'outlarn atatee. Both >Udex will lie given a hearing by the commission In ( few days. Got a Postal Telegraph frank? Then you’d better hustle out your messages before January 1, 1907. Why? Because President Clarence H. Mack ey says that the frank business of the Postal will be n thing of the post after that date. Pretty hard on pooplo who have hud tho satisfaction of sending messages and only the trouble of tear ing a little stamp out of a book and af fixing It to tho message. But everybody will be on an equal footing after December 31. Y’ou walk up, hand tn jour message and an ade quate amount of the tnaxuma. Noth ing else goes. The resolution passed by the hoard of directors reads: "Owing to changed conditions It has been found necessary to stop nil free transmission of messages, end this company will absolutely discontinue Its free list on mid after January 1, 1907, and no free service whatsoever will be performed thereafter.” LTEUT.

George F’ranklln Seymour, Kpls- copal bishop of Springfield. Ule.l today. He wA T7 years of age and vfa* born In New Y’ork. He was consecrated bishop In 1878. A graduate of Colum bia College, he entered the general the- nllglcul seminar)' and In 185.V was or dained. Bishop Seymour was a pro lific writer on religious subjects. uates is greater than tho supply. HAS REACHED LIMIT. But the institution has reached its limit of growth on the present campus. Dr. Matheaon states that it cannot remain on its present campus if it continues to grow as in the past. It needs more buildings aud there is not room on the pres ent campus for them. On ac count of this lack of room, it was necessary to place the Carnegie library of the school much too close to other buildings. This li brary. which is just being com pleted, has taken up all the availa ble room for buildings left on the campus. Dr. Matheson's request is for aid of a very small nature and the citizens of Atlanta should be will ing to subscribe ten times tho amount without n moment’s hesi tation. There should not ho the least trouble in getting the $5, 500 asked by Dr. Matheson. Money subscribed for the pur pose of enlarging the campus of •the Georgia School of Technology would he an investment of tho best kind. Business men arc constant ly looking for places to put their money so ns to reap a profit. But here is an opportunity right at their doors to reap big profits from a small amount of money. The profits aro reaped in this way: WILL FIGURE PROFIT. ^ Georgia Tech lias 545 students. These students live .in Atlanta during the school period mid pur chase most all their clothing in this city. Money for incidentals to a large amount is also expended here. Over .1il00,000 worth of goods arc annually bought from firms of Atlanta by students of the institution. Statistics which arc in the hands of Dr. Matheson show tlio names of two hundred firms with which these students trade. If the campus is not enlarged, the school will bo forced to remain at a stand-still, and no more stu dents can be admitted. The school has been increasing at u tremendous pace and the probabil ity is that it will continue to do so. If the sniall space’ of three acres which it is wished to secure is purchased for the school, there will be sufficient room to erect buildings to accommodate all of the students who want to enter. This large number of new stu dents will bring a large amount of additional money to Atlanta, which will be spent with the firms of this city. In a little while, the increase in money in circulation in this city will moyo than make up the amount of this subscription contributed. DIVIO PRIDE INVOLVED. Bnt Atlanta should suhscribo this amount not only as an invest ment, but it should be done ns a matter of civic pride. One hundred and twenty-five of the young men of Atlanta arc students at Georgia Teeli and are enjoying tho benefits of this edu cational institution. Graduates of the institution are leading in the development of At lanta's resources. The institution, as the best en gineering institution in the South, is adding greatly to tho prestige of the nity and is making it known throughout the country and even in other countries ns an educational center. Applications for catalogues come from China, South Africa and other places where the exis tence of the institution has made Atlanta known. ATLANTA BENEFICIARY. ’ Atlanta is the chief beneficiary of tlie school’s advancement nud should willingly aid in keeping it from decay. For if the campus is not enlarg ed, the school will be stagnated and stagnation generally is fol lowed by decay. Presidents of four or five of the greatest universities in the coun try have stated that they consid er Georgia Tech the leading engin eering institution in the South. Shall it be said of Atlanta that for the want of a few thousand dollars, she let such an institu tion, the greatest in her borders, go to decay? Atlanta’s Plain Outy. FMucational institution* are luixely ■Icpendent on tlie cities In which they are locataq. At Phlliulelnhla the clt- laens of that city subserlbeil tl.00A.90i) for the erection of n single building, an engineering building, for the Uni versity of Pennsylvania. The Inrsest subscription was one for 125.000. The others were small subscription* by numerous persons. Philadelphia had a civic pride which waa not to be hum bled by an appeal for aid for her ed ucational institutions Compare the figures of the last cen sus In respect to Atlanta and Phila delphia, as to their respective ability to give money for such purposes. Atlanta had at th# time of the cen sus 390 establishments, with a total capital of >18,045,158. There were 9.366 wage-earners and the total wages of these men were >3,103,989. Philadelphia’s establishments num bered 15,887, with a capital of >476,- 529,407. The average number of wage- earner* waa 346,445. The total amount of wagea came to >111,847,076. The average capital to an establish ment In Atlanta waa >41,141. while the average capital to an establishment In Philadelphia waa only >29.994. The average wage per man In Atlanta waa >»2, while that In Philadelphia was >453. t Interesting Comparison. Tho men who generally contribute toward matters of great Importance to city are Its business men; lienee the contributing capacity of a city may be reckoned ■ by the nmount of Its capital. Tho amount of capital to each establishment In Atlanta Is larger than the amount of capital per establishment In Philadelphia. Hence it appears that tile average business innn of Atlanta should better be ublu to contribute than the average busi ness man of Philadelphia Of course Philadelphia having a larger number of men can naturally contribute M.OPO,- 000 more easily than Atlanta, but At lanta, oven allowing Philadelphia her larger number of men, can certainly contribute >6,500 a hundred times easier than Philadelphia can subscribe for >1,000.000. Tile average wage per man In Philadelphia I* slightly greater than In Atlanta, but as has been said, the larger number of men there ex plains the cause. The Only Way to Do It. Geoigln has larger mineral resources In her soli, Including gold, sliver, coal. Iron, marble nnd many others. These and her many other Industries denmnd men skilled in technological subjects. The best way to this skill Is nt a tech nological Institution. Atlanta lias the Institution. It Is being rapidly filled with students. Numbers of skilled technologists are unnually turned out for the benefit of the city and the state. These go to work to develop the re sources of the city nnd state. The de mand for these men is much greater than tho supply. The school Is over crowded. Tho only way to supply the increasing demand Is to have more students. The only wny to have more students at a crowded Institution, where number* urt* clamoring for ad mission. Is lo enlarge the Institution and Increase It* facilities.' The three acres on which Dr. Math eson has options until January 1 Is the only land In the vicinity of Georgia Tech which lias no buildings on It. II can h* gotten now cheaper than In the future. After January 1 it Is probable that It cannot ever be serured. Dr. Matheson ha* only >3,000 with which to pay the purchase price of >7.500. He needs >5,500 more. He asks the cit izens of Atlanta for It. The citizens of Atlanta must realize the ■ efforts of the Institution to help It and the state, nnd must reciprocate with this little financial aid which Is asked. The Sidway Bsdstead as its name implies, is primarily intended for sick room use, but it is so handsome in design and so finely finish ed, that no matter where it is used it will lend attrac tion to its surroundings; and aside from its use for serving a meal, ijt is admirably adapted in the library or sick room as a reading talile, in the dining room as a serving table, in the den as a card table, as a sewing table, or for writing purposes.

This Is the first effort to place on the market any of the ninny kinds of hard woods In this section. These woods have long been considered of little value, ust us the vast areas of yellow pines were only a few years ago, but the quality of the wood Is all that a manufacturer could wish. BUILDING FACTORIES , AND MILL8 IN HELENA Most men who shave themselves have one or more good razors, a good strop, use good soap, and then are compelled to go from pillar to post, as it were, to secure a place where a mirror can be hung so ns to give even a fair reflection for shaving, and if a location is found that is fairly satisfactory for shaving by daylight, the very opposite condition usually exists if occasion requires its use by artificial light. This mirror can be instantly raised or lowered to ad mit of use standing or sitting, and whether the man is tall or short, it can he adjusted to the exact height desired. If sick or injured, nnd still able to use a razor, the stand can be curried wherever desired; hut whether raised or lowered, whether the light is natural or artificial, a per fect reflection is always obtained, and no part of the face can ever he in shadow, for tho mirror swivels to ev ery conceivable angle, at the will of the user. The same reasons that make it desirable for shaving purposes ap ply to its ustftis an adjunct in the preparation of a wo man’s toilet.
