THE VALDOSTA TIMES, SATURDAY. AUGUST 29, 1908
NEW RIFLES FOR

On the first day of September
Pew era with the National Guard
Georgia will be marked In the matter
of arms and another step made pos
sible by the Dick bill will be taken.

In the hands of the state militia.
Orders for the change have Juet
been Issued from the adjutant gen
eral s office. All the militia compa-
nies of the state have been equipped
with the new gun; that is, the guns
have been shipped to them and the
unpacking and distribution remains
to be done. After that the home sol-
filers of Georgia will be as well equip
ped as are the regulars, as they now
nave practically everything which the
regulars possess except the late make
of rifle.
Tho Old Springfield.
It has been only a few years since
the old Springfield, with Its leaden
bullets and smoking powder and Its
heavy burden of weight was the main
fiependance of the Georgia state
troops. It was with this gun, the pro
duct of the Civil war period, that
the boys marched away to war In 1898.
At that time It was displaced for
the time being In most Instances by
the substitution of,the Krag-Jorgen-
»en, the then regualr army rifle.
When the companies which respond
ed to McKinley's call returned home
they had to resume their military
duty as militiamen with the old
Springfield gun. Then, after a few
years, the Dick bill was passed, and
Three More Arrests Were Made Yes
terday and This Morning.
(Prom Tuesday’s Daily.)
Jim Jackson, the hackman, better
known as "Texas.’ was arrested yes
terday and placed In Jail on a charge
of selling liquor In violation of the
prohibition law. ’ Texas” Is accused
of selling three quarts to some young
men from the country a few days ago.
These young men will probably eom e
up as witnesses against him In the
trial of the case.

Bi ° W,yer «.» Car-Making E.tabll.h-
ment In Receiver’s Hands.
George Dole Wadley. president of
the Atlantic Car and Manufacturing
Company at Wa.vcross, and former
superintendent of the A. B. and 4
Construction Company, with head
quarters in Atlanta, has been appoint
ed receiver for the above named fac
tory by Judge T .A. Parker. The
appointment oame after deliberations
of the board of directors, who brought
suit for a receiver. They are George
Dole Wadley. George W. Deen, J. M.
Cox, J. M. Bell. A. Sessoms. J. S.
Bailey. C .M. Sweat, Frank R. Dur
den, B. H. Williams, P. N. Harley, F.
H. McGee and, M. L. Moore.
The petition for injunction and re
ceiver was presented to the court by
Judge J. L. Sweat and Hon. Wm. G.
Brantley. The appointment of iMr.
Wadley as receiver is only tempofdfy
and a hearing to decide the perma
nent receiver will be held at Way*,
cross on September 26th.
It Is known that while the car fao-
tory was operated successfully and
profitably for the first one or two
years following Its incorporation on
March 23, 1903, by reason of heavy
losses sustained by the burning of
the Savannah plant and the subse
quent destruction by fire of the larg
est portion of the Waycross plant, a
large indebtedness necessarily cre
ated Is still existing, notwithstanding
the partial payments and reductions
made thereon. It is also shown that
the company is not only now unable
to meet Its liabilities but for lack of
sufficient funds and with Its credit
lmpared and ln view of the money
stringency still prevailing as a re
sult of the recent panic, cannot, ex
cept through a receivership, continue
operations by obtaining new orders
for the manufacture of cars and suc
cessfully finance same. It Is the pur
pose of the suit, therefore, to protect
the property of the company from
loss and destruction in the interest
both of the stock-holders and the
creditors, and if possible to provide
for the continued operations of the
plant in the manufacture of cars un
til the debts can be paid.

enough of the rifles to equip all the

Valdosta ought to share ln this work,

month for five months and to sell it

Sock Burned From His Foot.
James Adams, who lives a few
miles from Savannah, came to the
city last week to look for work. His
feet were sore when he got homo and
he poured turpentine over his socks
to let It soak Into his feet and cure
the soreness. He spilled some ol the
turpentine on the floor and when his
wife remonstrated with him for It
he said he would bu”n It off. Getting
a match he tried to set fire to the
turpentine on the floor but Instead
set his feet on fire. He was so bad-
V burned that he had to go to bed.
One of his socks was entirely burn
ed from his foot before he could be
rescued from the trying position ln
which he found himself.
