CASHIER BRANDON'S DEATH.
No Foundation For the Intimation
That He Committed Suicide.
Thomasville, Ga., May 30.—A paragraph
under the head of Florida news In Sat
urday's Morning News has cast a shadow
over the memory of a most worthy and
exemplary gentleman. It is stated that
Cashier James A. Brandon of the Na
tional Bank of this city had died in Jack
sonville of an overdose of chloral, sup
posed to have been taken with suicidal In
tent. There is absolutely no ground for
such conclusion. Mr. Brandon left his ac
counts In perfect order, as he always
kept them. He had quite a sum in cash
to his credit, besides other property, and
owed no debts of any kind. He had suf
fered for years with nervous trouble,
which threatened congestion of the brain.
He bad been warned repeatedly by his
physicians to change his employment,
and he had finally decided to take their
advice. He was in Florida prospecting for
anew location, and had written eheer-
Ifu! letters nome about the prospects.
Nearly every circumstance of his past life,
as well as those surrounding his death.
Indicate that he died from paralysis or
congestion of the brain. He fell In the
office of the hotel, sank into unconscious
ness and never recovered. Mr. Brandon
was 38 years of age. and not 36 as stated
in the paragraph, and never had any
children, though two are given him there.
He did not live In a fine house In grand
style, but very modestly in a rented cot
tage. He had scores of friends and rela
tives who respected and loved him, hon
orable and remunerative employment, an
affectionate and devoted wife, whom he
loved fondly, pnd everything to live for.
While his health was poor. It was a mal
ady thHt rest and change would cure, of
which he was well assured, and this rest
and change he was seeking at the time
of his death. The idea of suicide Is out
of the question as such things do not
happen without a cause, and there was
no cause for James A. Brandon to do so
rash a thing.
XVEBTAIOKEL4TD AAD ROUNTREE.
The Encoonter In New York Causes n
Sensation nt Atlantn.
Atlanta, Ga.. May 20.—The sensational
encounter between Dr. Willis F.Westmore
land and Daniel W. Rountree In New York
lat week, when Dr. Westmoreland slapped
Mr. Rountree's face In the lobby of Ab
bey's theater, has been the cause of a
great many sensational reports here to
day. The affair has monopolized gossip
and speculation, the professional and so
cial positions of the two men being such*
as to
gram this afternoon from New York stat
ed that Dr. Westmoreland and Mr. Roun
tree had had a second fißlit on Broadway
this afternoon. In which both fought like
mad men. tearing each other horribly. No
confirmation of the report could be had,
however, as the family and friends of both
have been unable to reach them by tele
graph. Another report was to the effect
that Dr. Westmoreland and Mr. Rountree
had fought u duel on I sing Island tjils
morning, and that Dr. Westmoreland was
wounded, which accounted for the ina
bility of friends to get into communica
tion with either since last featurjlay night.
Late to-night word was received that
Dr. Westmoreland was In Washington to
day and may be home to-morrow. The
story of the Broadway fight to-day Is also
denied.
The trouble between Dr. Westmoreland
and Mr. Rountree date* back two years.
It grew out of a business transactions
which brought on a newspaper contro
versy. This became so bitterly denuncia
tory that peace warrants were sworn out
for them and both were put under bond
to keep the peace. Dr. Westmoreland In
15.000. and Mr. Rountree In 13,500. They
never met outside the state until they
came together In Abbey's theater, where
the face slapping occurred.
AT OUTS OVER BASE BALL.
Resolution* Expressive of the Feel
ing* of Teuin* of Two Vnlversitie*.
Macon, May 20. After the recent base
ball game between the teams of Mercer
I’ntverslty and the University of Georgia,
the students of the University of Georgia
adopted resolutions reflecting on the man
agement of the Mercer team. Friday the
Mercer Athletic Association adopted res
olutions expressive of its sentiments re
specting the students of the University of
Georgia, and stated some facts bearing
upon the game. One resolution is as fol
lows: "We desire to state that we feel
that we have been grossly miused by the
Athens men, In that they should have as
sented to the playing of the Mercer team
as made up, and then denounced us for
not adhering to an agreement which was
previously made, and which was, by their
express consent, abandoned. They know
of a truth, that there was not a profession
al on the Mercer team, and any statement
they make to that effect is made with a
full knowledge of its utter falsity."
DR. HOPKINS RESIGNS. 5
He Want, to Leave the School-Room
to Return to the Pulpit.
Atlanta, Ga., May 20.—Dr. I. S. Hop
kins, who has for six years been president
of the Georgia School of Technology, has
tendered his resignation to the board of
trustees to take effect at the end of the
present term.
The letter bearing Dr. Hopkins' resig
nation was submitted to the board of trus
tees at a meeting held last Thursday, but
by express agreement of the trustees,
who hoped to induce him to reconsider
every effort was made to keep the fact
from the public. The board of trustees
refuse to accept the resignation, and the
matter goes over to the next meeting of
the board on June 26.
Dr. Hopkins was president of Emory
College when called to the technological
school. He had long been active in the
ministry of his church, and his reason
now for desiring to leave the technologi
cal school, where he has done a great
work, beloved by those associated with
him and highly esteemed by the state, is
that duty calls him back to the ministry
again.

city was aglow with the feminine bloom
and beauty of the state.
The line of march was nearly two miles
long, and the procession moved through a
solid mass of enthusiastic and loyal south
ern patriots.
The exercises were Intensely interest
ing throughout. The speech of welcome
by Capt. Samuel A. Ashe, was a gem of
elegant diction and oratory.
The speech of the day was made by Col.
Alfred M. Waddell of Wilmington, one of
North Carolina's greatest orators. It was
listened to and vociferously applauded by
acres of people.
Other speeches were made by ex-Gov.
Thomas M. Holt, Col. W. H. Cheek, Gen.
Bradley T. Johnson of Baltimore, and
Judge A. C. Avery of the supreme court.
The city was a waving mass of bunt
ing and beauty, and the whole occasion
has been a grand and glorious one for
North Carolina and eepeclaly for the la
dles' Monumental Association, through
whose efforts the monument has been
built. The monument itself Is one of the
finest and most Imposing that has been
erected In the south. It Is seventy-five

soldier In bronge,- moulded In Munich.
North Carolina will never forget the 20th
of May, 1895, the memorable unveiling of
the confederate monument In Its capital
city.

the Hnllronil Commission Bill.
Tallahassee, Fla., May 20.—Both houses
of the legislature have to-day been the
scene of long and exciting
debates, and the discussion of
the new Jacksonville charter
bill on second reading has packed repre
sentative hall to suffocation. When the
bill came up, this being the same measure
as that Introduced In the Senate by Mr.
Hartridge. and for which that gentleman
afterwards offered a substitute, Mr. Dancy
moved the adoption of the substitute,
which was finally carried.
Mr. McCreary moved to strike out all
after the enacting clause and substitute
an amendment of Ills own, which was
lost.
A motion was then made to submit the
entire matter to the electors of Jackson
ville, which resulted In a tie vote.
The battle was resumed in the afternoon
and proved a heated one, but the tide had
turned since Saturday and the abse.riee of
several of the Stockton-BArrs element
gave the ether side an advantage which
they mad.* the most of.
The motion to submit the question to
the people of Jacksonville was revived
and lost by a vote of 33 to 33.
Mr. Healy spoke at length against the
motion and In his most effective manner,
and was replied to by. Mr. Brady, who
referred to his inconsistency In deferring
to the wishes of the Duval county delega
tion in this Instance, while he had ignored
them on the Jockey club question.
Messrs. Clarke and Sullivan also spoke
against the motion.
The bill was finally ordered engrossed
for third reading and the chances are in
favor of its passage.
During the afternoon debate Mr. Christie
declared In voting to table an amend
ment that these dilatory motions were be
ing sent in by a machine out In the lobby
which was grinding them out by the
peck.
In the Senate the substitute for the rail
road commission bill was taken up at 4
o’clock. Mr. Palmer of the Fourteenth dis
trict, a strong anti-railroad man, sur
prised everybody by moving the adoption
of the minority report which deprecated
the creation of a commission at this time.
The senator spoke at some length and de
clared that the people of Florida were liv
ing in subjection to the corporations.
Senator Broome took up the statistical
side of the question and endeavored to

We’re one idea men. One idea men
seems to win nowadays. Have you no
ticed that In every line of merchandising
there seems to be ONE store to which
lovers of an A No. 1 article turn with con
fidence. When we began business we had
one idea—to have that ONE store. We
have it. Our first point was high quality.
Second, Moderate Price. Third, Correct
Service. This combination has had the
result of a large and prosperous trade, for
which we thank our many friends and
customers. We shall always continue to
give them the VERY BEST GOODS AT
THE LOWEST PRICES. We still have
that ONE IDEA, and will be second to no
one. We are still pushing for new trade,
and a visit to our store will repay you.

SHAMS
Are those Ifnorant pretenders without
any qualifications, any ability, any experience,
any skill, claim to possess the j>ower to cure
oil the ills of the human race. But their want
of worth soon becomes apparent to their would
be dupes, and these consciencelessiquacks are
soon consigned to the oblivion they so richlv
merit.
In strange and strong contrast with these
miserable boasters is the quiet, dignified vet
courteous of that noted leader of lna
profession.
Dr. Seymour Putnam,
who, during the past twenty-five year*, has
abundantly demonstrated his ability to effect
speedy, perfect and permanent cures In all the
worst forms of those delicate sexual maladies
embraced within the general terms of
Nervous, Chronic and Private Diseases.
BEWARE of free and cheap treatment. I
give the best and most scientific treatment at
moderate pricas—as low as can be done for safe
and skillful treatment. Free consultation at
the office or by mall. Call on or address

Traps
Are now the fad.
They come in nu
merous designs and
colors. Blue is the
prevailing shade.
We show a very
pretty line of many
styles. Of course,
they are not the
cheap kind of Fehl
cles some folks buy
and sell, and yet,
considering grade
and finish, our
prices ARE cheap.
We want to sell
some of our high
priced Fancy Traps
and-Brags. Toucan
