210.000 FEET OF LUMBER 00 UP
SMOKE - KaLV LUMBER CO. LOOSERS
The tremendous stacks of lumber
on Judge \V. L. rhillips’ place near
Big Creek were discovered in full
blaze on Sunday .just after dinner.
The T. 15. Kelly Lumber Cos. owned
the lumber and as early as possible
after receiving the alarm a number
of men were sent to the scene. The
fire had gotten such a sart and the
men were so poorly equipped for
fighting fire that only a few thous
and feet were saved. Reports from
Kelly Lumber Co’s, office show a
loss of around two hundred thousand
feet, none of which was covered by
insurance.
Tilt burned lumber bad recently
been sawed by Mr. F. P. Alexander,
who only a few days ago turned
same over to Kelly Lumber Cos. It is
not known just how the fire started
but Mr. Kelly is of the opinion that
an old saw dust pile which has been
burning for some time set the sur
rounding woods afire and the fire
spread to tlie lumber, after the
first stack caught the others were
hopelessly doomed. Several months
ago another fire on this same site
destroyed upward to three hundred
thousand feet of lumber, none of
which was insured.

KEIXY LUMBER CO. INSTALLS
NEW BLOWER SYSTEM
The Kelly Lumber Cos. has just
completed the construction of a
new blower that will convey the
shavings accumulating at their new
planer which was put into serv
ice this week, to # the Louisville
Light I’lant. Heretofore,( shavings
have been hauled to the light plant
l>y truck. This, of course, involv
ed much expense and trouble. Now.
that the blower is completed, the
shavings will be blown right into
the fire-proof box at the plant.
This will enable the fireman to
throw the shavings right into the
boiler without having to handle
them but one time.
For the past several months the
Kelly Lumber Cos. has been under
contract to the city of Louisville
to furnish fuel and labor necessary
to keep the light plant running,
in consideration of which the Kelly
Lumber Cos. is to receive 81000 per
day. The new' blower system which
has just been completed is said to
hare cost upward of $2,500.00 Hie
blower conveys shavings over a dis
tance of approximately 400 yards
and supplies not only the Louis
ville Light Plant with shavings but
supplies the Jones-Kelly Dry Kiln
as well.

GRANGE SCHOOL CLOSES
SUCCESSFUL YEAR
Teachers and Patrons Grati
fied Over Result—Speaker
Hyman Pays Tribute to Jef
ferson County.
The Grange School closed
week after a most gratifying year’s
work. A bountiful basket dinner
with an old-time Georgia barbecue
was the closing feature of the com
mencement exercises. People from
all parts of the county were present
to enjoy the hospitality of these
good people and were gratified to
learn of the splendid work being
done in the Grange School.
Hon- Elbert Hyman, of Sanders
ville, representative for Washington
County, was the distinguished speak
er for the occasion and he paid
glowing tributes to Grange and to
the county. Jefferson County, said
Mr. Hyman, is due a debt of grati
tude from the state of Georgia for
the quota of distinguished men fur
nished, among those being the late
Judge R. L. Gamble, Rufus Carswell,
Hershell Johnson and Ranson
Wright.
Mr. Frank Hardeman, of Louis
ville, introduced the speaker.
Prof. S. L. Price made a short
address of welcome. Prof. Price is
the efficient superintendent of the
Grange School, and with the aid of
his corps of teachers, has done much
for the school.
Mrs. R. L. Allen and Mrs. Floyd
Rivers taught in the school this year
which had an enrollment of one
hundred and twelve pupils. Miss
Emma Rec Walden and Miss Mary
Will Harrison graduated from the
eleventh grade with honor.
Among other honors won by the
Grange School during the past
school year was the silver loving
cup offered for the best girls’ bas
ketball team in the county.
KELLY LUMBER CO. INSTALLS
NEW PLANER
Kelly Lumber Cos. ran their new
planer for the first time on Mon
day. The new planer has the same
capacity as the old one, and the
two combined give this successful
enterprise an output of four cars
of lumber per day. To most of
ns, four cars of lumber per day,
amounting to over 100 cars per
month, is just a little more than we
can take in, and our first thought
is that the entire lumber supply
in this section will be completely
exhausted in the next few months.
This is not the case, however, since
Mr. Kelly advises us that there is
sufficient lumber in this immediate
territory to keep his plant running
day and night for three to five
years longer. Let us hope that the
supply can be made to last over
a period of even five years, since
the lumber industry has been direct
ly responsible for Louisville’s grow
ing activity in a business way.

DIXIE POULTRY FARM AMONG LOUISVILLE’S
LATEST INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPEMENTS
Though in Infancy This Poultry Farm Sips as High as
150 Dozen Eggs Weekly.
The Dixie Poultry Farm, the first,
of its kind to open in Louisville,
is just about a year old, and even
in its infancy is shipping as many
as 150 dozen eggs each week. At
present, there are only about 4INV
hens owned by this enterprise, but
this number is being increased as!
rapidly as possible, and the owners!
hope to have upward of 1,000 liens;
in the very near future. Each of
the 400 white Leghorn hens lias its
its nu in her, and about 200 are used
for breeders, and are trap-nested
so that their eggs may be kept
apart from the others. Among the
recent improvements is anew incu
brftor with a capacity of 1,200 eggs
This incubator is divided into com
partments holding 100 eggs each,
this feature makes it possible to
set as fevf as 100 eggs or as many
as 1,200. It is not imperative that
each compartment be filled at once,

Worshipers Quit Church When Minister Criticizes Wilson
(From The Washington Star)
Adverse criticism of the treaty of
Versailles and former President Wil
son’s participation in its creation by
Rev. Dr. Charles F. Aked, a London
clergyman, caused scores of indig
nant persons to walk out of the
First Congregational Church, 10th
and G streets, last night, in the
midst of the sermon.
Dr. Aked raised the ire of a num
ber of those who jammed the church,
in his very first sentence when he
declared the treaty had proved it
self to be worse than the war. A
few minutes later, the countenance
of the others assumed appoplectic
hues when the speaker said former
President Woodrow Wilson had
been “misled,” and that the treaty
in itself was “an infamous docu
ment, born of secret deliberations
and treaties on the part of the al
lies.” All of these, Dr. Aked con
tinued, were a betrayal of the pol
icies for which Mr. Wilson, as a
representative of America, stood.
At that moment a determined
looking woman who had occupied a
seat far down in the front of the
church arose. Her hair was gray
hut her voice was strong and angry
as she turned her back on D.*. Aked
and called out to the congregation:
“All friends of Woodrow Wiison
will leave this church.”
Pushing her way through the
aisles, the woman started toward
the door, followed by a stream of
others that increased as it neared
the exit. Still others had preceded
her, more quietly, but looking every
hit of the indignation they felt
over what they termed inexcusable
criticism of a ormer president of
the United States. Scores of the
1,500 persons who filled the church
departed, aqd even after the elder
ly leader of the objectionists had
left, couples drifted out without ap
parent regard to the feelings of I)r.

FIRE BUIS PURI
OF GAMP JACKSON
Sixteen Barracks Burned,
According to Reports—
Captain Faucette Believes
Fire Bugs Are at Work.
Columbia, S. C., April 24.—Fire is
raging at Camp Jackson, near here.
Sixteen barracks have burned, ac
cording to an unverified report
reaching Columbia-
The buildings were fired in three
places, Captain Faucette said tonight
in making his statement that he
was convinced that fire hugs had
been at work at the camp. The old
first brigade hotel, a large two
story structure, was destroyed by
fire about ten days ago, and Captain
Faucette said that also was the work
of incendiaries. He did not make
known the facts upon which lie bas
ed his conclusion as to tile origin
of the fires.
Asa result of the recent fires,
Camp Jackson will be completely
closed to the public, the camp com
mander announced tonight. The
main thoroughfare known as the
Wild Cat Road, after the Eighty
first (“Wild Cat”) Division which
trained at the camp, has been used
for some time by traffic between
Columbia and northern points.
The loss caused by the fires will
not exceed 8200 for each building,
Captain Faucette estimated, except
in the case of the hotel, which was
valued at $1,200.
The garrison at Camp Jackson
consists of seventeen men as care
takers, according to Captain Fau
cette. The camp fire department is
composed of these men.
TO VOTE OF TAX LEVY.
Savannah, April 24.—Savannah
will vote -tomorrow upon the ques
tion of an additional tax levy lor
the support of the city and county
school system ten thousand. Four
hundred arc qualified to vote,
ceived here up to this afternoon, of
any trouble in Camden.
Prohibition officers today report
ed the capture yesterday in Camp
bell county of an illicit distilling
plant of 300 gallons capacity. The
capture is said to have been made
in a barn on the farm of a man by
of Bob Campbell, in the Bed Oak
neighborhood. Only one gallon of
liquor was taken
eggs each day for 12 days. This
incubator does not use the old un
reliable oil heater, hut is heated
by a hard coal stove which distrib
utes the heat uniformly into each
of the 12 compartments. The Dixie
Poultry Farm owns some very fine
hens. Some of them are straight
line descendants from some of the
world’s greatest layers. The eggs
laved by the white Leghorn hens
of this farm are of superior qual
ity, and the owners have a con
stant demand from leading hotels
of this section and select caterers
for their entire supply. Just now
all shipments ore being consigned
to Charleston, S. C., and it is re
ported that eggs arc being used by
the Clyde Line Steamship Cos., of
that city. Thirty-three ccn*s net is
the cheapest prices yet received per
doezn for eggs shipped by the Dixie
farm. This enterprise is destined
for great success and we c uniicnd
tii' owners.
Pierce, pastor of the church.
Dr. Aked continued his sermon,
but many of those present declar
ed he abruptly changed his atti
tude. Some even insinuated that he
had changed the sermon altogether.
His address was entitled, “Wood
row Wilson at His Best- a tender, a
beautiful idealization of the great
failure in an imaginary portrait by
an Englishman.” It was based on
the text suggested by Corinthians,
thirteenth chapter, seventh verse:
“Love is always eager to believe
the best.”
Then he proceeded to quote from
a book which contained three arti
cles which dealt respectively with
Parnell, Chamberlain and Wilson,
the title of the book apparently
wa* “Dethroned.’'
The article on former President
; Wilson was in the form of an imagi
i nary dialogue with Secretary Tunuil
, t>. represented as occurring on the
day they left the White House.
Dr. Aked explained that he did
not necessarily concur with the sen
timents in the book, but in the
course of his sermon he drew the
conclusion that one must do no
wrong in order to secure a right.
Hr made this comment after quot
ing from the book, which assumed
that Mr. Wilson had hoard rumors
of secret treaties, hut chose “not
to know them,” and that lie was
tempted to tell the American peo
ple that the peace was wTong, hut
did not yield to that temptation be
cause of his desire to establish the
league of nations-
He quoted with emphasis the
thought in the hook that the for
mer president yielded to the force
at the peace table against his own
high ideals.
Dr. Aked will speak at tlie same
church at 4:45 oVlock this after
noon on “A Study of La Fai. a
Dream of Egypt in the Time of Tut
ankhamen, by Eugene Brieux.”

•lust after the baseball name play
ed at Moxley between Wadley and
Moxlcy negroes, an ‘ argument arose
as to the correct ownership of one
of the halls used in the game.

bullet cutting through the skin on
his forehead and slightly scraping
the frontal hone. Will Brown, see
ing that the fuss was serious rush
ed up in an effort to hold Lewis
before he could fire a second shot.
Lewis evidently misunderstood his
motives, and shot Brown through
the neck. Both negroes missing be
ing killed by a hair’s breadth. It
is reported that several white men
rushed to the scene just is Lewis
was making his escape, and in ail
effort to stop the fleeing criminal,
fired several shots none of which
hit Ldwis.
No arrests have been made to date.
