Felder Harley Was !
Drowned this .Hornmgi
The Tragedy Occurred At
Titusville, Florida.
From the Valdosta Ttmes, 20th,
~ The atartling news was received
%here'just about noon today of the
downing of Felder Harley, at Titus
ville, Fla., where he has been spend
ing ¢wo or three weeks on a pleasure
trip.
Mr. Harley has been very hard at
work for a long time and was con
siderably run down when he left
Valdosta to go to Florida on a hunt
ing and fishing trip. He had been
at or near Titusville and repcerts
from him indicate that his health
was much better and he expected
to return to Valdosta about the first
of May and resume his duties in
!his father’s store.
| The telegram announcing his death
came to Dr. Joe Thomas {rom Mr.
Charles A. Garnder. of Titusville.
!No details were given and the tele
‘gram mierely stated that he had been
Idmwned and that a boat containing
his clothing had drifted ashore. This
'would indicate that he had gone
} bathind and had probably dotten
over his head. The telegram indi
cates that no,one was with him at
the time.
Mr. J. H. Harley. the father of tae
deceased, is off on a tripen the road.
and efforts have been made to get
him both by relegraph and telephone.
Dr. J. C. Wilsen broke the news to
Mrs. Harley soon after the telegram
came here. Mrs. Harley will leave
this afternoon for Titusville and she
hiopes to have Mr. Harley accoinpany
her if he can be reached.
The deceased was one of the
brightest, most energetic young men
in Valdosta, and was a young men
of good habits and splendid moral
character. He was polite to every
body, courteous at all times, and it
was a pleasure to do business with
him in his father’s store.
His death has caused a shock in
the entire community. There was
no young man here who stood high
er in popular esteem.
His death comes as a crushing
blow to his parents, who lost one of
their children by tragedy two or
three years ago, his death being due
to lockjaw from the explosion of a
cannon cracker or some fireworks
during Christmas.
Later.—A message this afternoon
stated that the body of Mr. Harley
had been recovered.
Mr. J. H. Harley, the young man's
father, was located this afternoon at
Argyle, Ga., and acquainted with the
sad news.

And kiss him with delight,
So, mother, put the kettle on,
{'m coming home tonight.
A letter mailed one day before the
Titanic sailed said:

Half-Cent Coppers
To Cut Living Cost
Washington, Arril 11 —Another
way to reduce the cost of living was
discovered by Representative Bulk
ley, democrat, of Ohio, who intro
duced a bill providing for the coin
age of a half-cent copper piece. Its
ussfulness, he declared, would be to
purchasers who are allured by mer
chants into buying articles by the
tempting quotations of “124 cents.’
Mr. Bulkley already has introduc¥
ed a bill for a 3-cent piece to mee
conditions in his home city, Cleve
land, where the street car fare is
that amount.
