If Cartersville needs one tiling
more than another it is a projverly

solid backing of our business men.
There are many things constantly
occurring that need the attention
of such an organization. A feeble
attempt was made a few months
ago to organize one, but it died be

business men should wake up on
this subject and begin again where

DEATH IN THE RiVER.
Hr. Miles Arnold Molds a Horri
ble Heath Yesterday.
VI hilt' >tartiiK to Cru** the Klowah River

Until i-* Found in the -tieam.
Mr. Miles Arnold, a prominent
farmer and citizen of the seven
teenth district, met his death yes
terday liy drowning in Jja* Etowah
river.
Mr. Arnold wa< postmaster at
Ford and every Wednesday and
Saturday Carrie- the mail between
that place and Kingston. Yester
day morning he left as usual with
the mail, expecting to come down
to Carter-vilb* on the morning
train, returning on the afternoon
train to Kingston and return'with
i tin* mail.
But Jie never reached Kingston.
His family waited for his arrival
home last night, but they waite ;
in vain. When long after his usual
arrival time bad passed they grew
uneasy. A seurchingparty was made
up and started oil’ on tin* road Air.
Arnold had taken. When they
reached the Etowah river about
half a mile from home a horrible
: sight n* , ‘heir gaze. In the river,
not far fro*, the bank, and in shal
low w*r* *r, Cos batteau used for
crossing was found turned up side
down, and under it was the lifeless
i body of Mr. Arnold.
It is supposed that Mr. Arnold
was bailing the water out of the
boat, preparatory to crossing the
stream. He is subject to attacks of
vertigo and at this Him* one of the
attacks came on him, lie staggered
and fell into the rushing water be
low, capsizing the boat as he went
down.
The horrified and grief-stricken
searchers, as quickly as possible,
put him in a buggy and carried
him to the home that he had left
| in the morning in such fine spirits.
What a difference of feeling in
that household of morning and
night. Truly the bright, glad sun
j shine had been exchanged for
| gloomy darkness.
Mr. Arnold is a gentleman of
! sixty-two years of age and leaves a
large family of grown children, nine
: in number. Last year be lost one
Ids arms In his gin, and this fact,
I perhaps, prevented him making a
greater effort to save Ills life.

Rev. Sam Jones’ Birthday Celebration
Enjoyed by His Friends.
It was a pleasant, jolly coterie of
friends, indeed, who found their
way to the delightful home of Ilex*, j
Sam Jones yesterday noon to en
joy a magnificent collation, or
birthday dinner, given by Mrs.
Jones to the friends of that gentle
man, in honor of his forty-second
birthday. An hour was spent be
fore dinner was announced in nar
rating rich anecdotes, and it seem
ed every one had a liberal supply of
them on hand, and their continual
popping kept tin* company in an
uproar. Brothers Jjillhouse, Coop
er, Adams and Christian furnished
considerable mirth with their dif
ferent experience of collecting fees
for performing marriage ceremo
nies, a detailed notice of which
would till a volume and furnish a
bountiful supply of rich reading.
Mr. Jones was in a very happy
mood and made all feel most com
fortable and at ease, taking a full
hand in perpetrating jokes, now
and then extracting an uproarous
outburst at tlu* expense of some un
fortunate one present. When din
ner was announced, an immediate
charge was made on the dining
room. And sijeh a dinner! Airs.
Jones is famous for her elegant din
ners, but this one surpassed her
former achievements. It was all
that could be desired, and an
onslaught of an hour and a half
only tended to show it up in more
glittering proportions. Ample jus
tice was clone, and that dinner will
remain a pleasant memory with
those who were there. The table
and dining room were tastily deco
rated and much admired. After
the siege was raised Brother Hill
house*, with a heart full of thanks
and an earnest desire to do full
justice, made a motion to “rise, re
port and ask leave to sit again.”
A 1 were too full for utterance and
the motion died of its own accord.
After dinner an hour was spent
pleasantly in social talk, when the
"company, wishing their good hosts
many happy returns, took their de
parture, all loud-in thei praise of
their kind friends and hearty good
wishes for their continued pros
perity.

A NECESSARY CHANGE.
Macon Loses the Jeter and Itoardman
Gas and Water Association.
| Macon Telegraph.]
The Jeter and Boardman Gas
and Water Association no longer
claims Macon as its headquarters.
For years Air. A. E. Boardman,
the ..secretary and treasurer, has re
sided in Afaeon, while the presi?
dent, Air, \Y, A. Jeter, made hm
home in Brunswick.
.Since the organization of the
company, five years ago, Macon has
been its headquarters. Yesterday
morning, however, the stockholders
held a meeting, and after a short
talk, concluded that as the business
of the association was extending
rapidly in the east it would be ad
visable to change the offices of the
company to New York city.
To that end Air, Boardman leaves
tonight for the metropolis, where
be will at once secure an office for
the association.
Since the organization the busi
ness has grown rapidly until it has
now assumed mammoth propor
tions. In half a dozen cities in
Florida the association has erected
plants, both gas and water, in Ala
bama almost as many, while Geor
gia cities to the number of four or
five, also use the systems. Com
mencing with a small capital the
association has doubled its stock
several times, until now it works
on a capital of several hundred
thousand dollars.
The removal was a matter of ne
cessity, but by it Alaeon loses an
energetic citizen and an already
well-known construction company.
BARTOW'S MANGANESE. -
What an Experienced Mineralogist
Has to Say of Its Value.
Mr. R. A. F. Penrose, state geolo
gist of Kansas, spent several days
in this city and county last week
investigating our splendid ores.
Mr. Penrose was much pleased
with the investigation, He was
especially delighted with our im
mense deposits of manganese, which
lie says is as Hue as any he ever
saw. In quantity this county ex
ceeds that of any place in the
country. Instead of following a
five-inch vein r as is the case in
many places, the miners here have
thousands of tons in sight. There
is no doubt but that our people w ill
reap rieli results from our vast
deposits of minerals. .
To whom it max’ concern: This is to
certify that I was a sutFerer from rheu
matism:' could walk only witherutehes.
I have used one jug of Ray’s Germfeide,
and am able now to do away with the
erutehes. I consider it worth its weight

was ever fearless am! outspoken in com
mendation of what was right and in
condemnation of what was wrong. He

his death, time only can develop the
loss which Bartow county sustained.

indulgent and kind our deceased brother
was as a husband and father, and that
to his grief-stricken wife and children
we extend our most heartfelt sympathy

The pastor of the Baptist church

this question next Sunday night

STARTLING!
Railroad Rumors That Affect the Vital
Interest of Cartersville.
For years and years it has been
the fondest hope of Cartersville to
have a railroad from this point to
Gainesville, an object most desired
above all things, and one that would
guarantee to us excellent railroad
facilities. A company was organ
ized, a survey made, but up to the
present time financial arrangements
have not been made.
Now comes the rumor that Mr.
John 1). Williamson, the railroad
builder of Georgia, whose move
ments are never known until
all preliminaries are arranged, has
succeeded in getting a charter to
extend the Rome railroad to Gaines
ville, and lias already organized a
construction company.
Cartersville’s vital interersts are
at stake, and unless something is
done to bring this road by Carters
ville she will miss a golden oppor
tunity. Let our people act and by
all means see to it that the compa
ny has proper inducements to come
this way. This is no time for bick
ering and small differences, but
let’s act.
And act at once!
