Special to The Georgian. Salisbury. N. C., Dec. 10.—A con- coiirse of Salisbury and Spencer peo ple followed the- funeral train of En gineer George C. Kinney to Thomas- ville. his home, yesterday, and the Masons of the two cities took part In the burial of the dead engineer. The Southern railway furnished free trans portation to those who desired to at tend the last rites, and the largest con course ever seen at such an occasion attended. George Kinney's tragic death leaves but one man of a family more noted in railroad history than any men op erating trains for the Southern. There were four of the boys—Charles, Frank or “Bud,” Will and George. Their father, J#ome Kinney, was as famous as any of the children, and all have borne the reputation of being the bravest and best men who ever sat on the right side of au engine. Three and a half years ago Charles Kinney met death on train No. 34, near Lynchburg, within a mile or so of the killing of Samuel Spencer by his broth er Will, who ran Into Spencer's train with a dying southwestern limited. No. 37. Charles ran Into a train and jump ed from the engine when a car turned over on him. Fate was cruel and had he remained the, apparent certain death would have been avoided. Some time before that Ids brother died as the re sult of heart failure while running an engine on the Seaboard. Jerome Kinney, the father, ran Into a train near Charlotte, and was so bad ly disabled that ho quit the service. In the courts he received the largest verdict ever given In a railroad dam age suit in this state, $22,500, and in terest 'from date of Injury. When Will Kinney dashed into the Spencer train Thanksgiving day he did not have time to jump, and sitting still, he came out practically unscathed, crawling with his grip through the burning debris and receiving scorched hair only. A few days ago George Kinney was being teased by a fellow-railroader and told that his time would come next. He said he had made up his.mind that these filings are the flats of destiny, and that If he met danger he would not dodge It. He was true, and when found with his foot pinioned with the reverse lever, his face scalded beyond recognition and his magnificent phy sique crushed shapelessly by a 1,200-ton monster engine, It was apparent that he had not In that dramatic moment experienced fear, an emotion with which he had never exchanged cards In all of his 38 years. Kinney wan a hero, who never strove with the world for witness, one always In the silent watches of the night, while he lived and when he died.

Building permits f'or the year have already exceeded $5,000,000. The toiost ardent hopes of the most ardent hopers for Atlanta’s welfare have been exceeded. It was only a week ago that the prediction was made that the building permits for the year would he $5,000,000. This figure has already been exceeded, and the climb to $6,000,000 has.begun. The permits for last year amounted to $3,312,931,* The Increase this year over last is now In the neighborhood of 75 per cent/ • and from present pros- pectii will aipount nearly td 100 per cent. And y«, ,|ast year was consid ered one of unprecedented prosperity. The amount of pejrrftlts up to Decem ber 1 this year wgs $4,816,930. The amount for the first week of December was $261,009- The total amount-through the first week of December Is $5,077,930. If the permits for the last three weeks of the month'ale as great as the per mits for the first week the total for the year will be about $6,000,0Q0, which will lack only a few thousand of being dou ble that of last year. ' As far a* Js .known, the, ratio of In crease will be exceeded by only one city In the United States, the .thriving, throbbing city of. the far West, I«os Angeles. . . : WOMAN WILLS HER BODY AND CATS TO ROOSEVELT; TRIES TO KILL HERSELF And, having won, feel it Slip nwny. 1 envy earth Its secret, stolen hMss.

The musical language of Wagner has always Impressed me us something like the original language of the eternal elements—something awe-lnsplrlngly eloquent, speaking In tones rising from mysterious depths of understanding and passion. It is difficult to illustrate by example, but I will try. Among the funeral marches In musical literature, Beethoven's and Chopin’s had always most sympathetically appealed to mg feelings—Beethoven's with the stately solemnity of Its mourning accents, and Chopin's with Its cathedral bells inter woven with melodious plaints. But when I hear the Siegfried dead march the Gotterdamnierung, my heart beat seems to stop nt the tremendous sigh of woe, never heard before, rush ing hrough the air. “Tha Comforts of Homo.” "Please wire to Boston for my clothes,” said an excited young woman to a New York Central official at For ty-second street the other day, accord ing to The New York Globe. A puzzled look was ull the railroad man gave In response. "It is this way,” she continued when she regained a calmness consistent with dear expression. I came on the sleeper from Chicago. Our berth was so crowded flint I hung my skirts In the sleeper back of ours; It seemed unoccupied. Somehow along the road It was switched off.

There Js no one to blame.” So declared Mrs. Lula B. Grover, aged 45, to a physician who was called her apartments yesterday by a neighbor who told the doctor that Airs. Grover was dying. The neighbor heard groans and on Investigating found the Grover woman unconscious on the floor. When the doctor arrived the woman recovered her senses and begged to be permitted to die. Instead, she was taken to a hos pital. She was suffering from chloro form poisoning. Not* on the Table.

They realized that there had been a heavy drain on the city’s strong box for im provements that were absolutely necessary, a yd they tried to do with what was given them. But the time has now arrived when they cannot patch up old schools with additional rooms', for they have reached the limit in this line. They need new schools— several of them. Thy need some to take the piaces of the old frame structures and others to relieve the congested conditions. Assistant Superintendent Lan drum has shown by his figures that since 1002 there has been a yearly increase of about £00 pu pils, so that means there will be an. increase of 800 pupils next year. ’ At 40 pupils to a room,—that’s th» number experts say is enough—it will take twenty rooms and about as many more to relieve the con gested eonditition already exist ing. It is cither this or have children turned down when they apply for admission next year. DECLARES CUSTOMARY ANNUAL OIVIOENO Denver, Polo,, I tee.

It Is her theory that psyehometry Is the manifestation of certain latent powers or faculties of the soul on the natural or physical plane, nud Is bused on cm exact laws us nre any other mnnlfcs talloiis of nature. It Is admitted by aclenlists that all form, color, etc., are due to certain rates of vibra tion, and It Is also ndiulttml that attrac tion a tel repulsion as manifested in chemis try are due to the Mituc cause; that is, that substances of .certain rates of vibra tion harmonize or Idem/, ns do chords of music, while other substances that do not repel each other as do certain nrd. vhe Mounded together produce Uis- find iu the riiilm of mind ud soul attractions nnd repulsions.
