SCHOOL OF TECHNOLOGY FI Ml.
Machinery Secured to Equip the I’ro
pnMed New Building.
Atlanta, Ga., July 6.—Acting under the
provisions of the act of the last legisla
ture the State Technological School has
received more than SIO,OOO in donations of
machinery for the establishment of a tex
tile department and Is thus entitled to an
appropriation of SIO,OOO from thy state,
which was conditioned on securing the
same amount from other sources. The
Governor has been called on for the ap
propriation and it will probably lie paid in
a short while to the trustees of the school.
The contributions have lieen secured
through efforts of President Hull, assist
ed by Oscar Elias of the Fulton Bag and
Cotton Mills, who was a student at the
Technological School several years ago,
and has enthusiastically devoted himself
to aiding the equipment of the textile de
partment. His connection with the cot
ton mill greatly aided in negotiations with
the manufactures of machinery.
It is said that the machinery contributed
is In large variety and will fully equip the
building which is to be erected.
The trustees of the Technological School
propose to erect a textile building, which
will cost about $15,000, and install in it the
machinery contributed. This plant they
hope to increase from time to time so as
to keep pace with the progress in the tex
tile industry.

Cave Him Appetite and Sleep.
“Up to the time when I had the grip I
was a strong, healthy man. After that I
had no appetite and was not able to
rest well at night. I decided to try
Hood’s Sarsaparilla and purchased a sup

good. I have a good appetite and can
sleep well.” Joseph M. Wardlaw,
Borne, Georgia.
“I have found Hood’s Sarsaparilla in
valuable for purifying the blood and loss
of appetite. It cures all eruptions and
makes me feel better in every way.”

TAX ON U VI HILLS VNII TELEGRAMS
Issue as to Who .shall Pay It to Go
Before CnmmiKKlon.
Atlanta, Ga., July 6.—An issue has been
raised before the Georgia State Railroad
Commission as to whether the express and
tih-graph companies, or the patrons of
these concern* shall pay the war tax cn
way bills and telegrams.
The matter is brought to the attention
of the commission, which has jurisdiction
of the express and telegraph companies
in thie state, by O. H. Arnold, Jr., of
Macon, a well known cotton factor.
The companies are now requiring their
customers to pay for the stamps that
must be placed on the telegrams and ex
press receipts, and this is practically an
Increase in rates, which brings it before
the railroad commission.
The tax act does not say who is to pay
the tax. The commission will make a
thorough stuVly of the matter, which is of
considerable importance, and will be
watched with interest by the public, be
fore undertaking to decide the point
raised by Mr. Arnold.
In discussing the matter to-day A. A.
Montgomery, agent of the Southern Ex
press Company, said: "Our company t as
construed the law differently from some
of our patrons, but has no disposition to
obstruct the law. The Southern, Ameri
can, Wells Fargo, Pacific, Adams and
all the standard express companies held
a conference on this matter and their at
torneys, among the ablest in the country,
were present to advise. They all agreed
that the law didn't specify whether the
shippers or the companies should pay the
tax.
"The merchants’ association of New
Yerk, has taken the matter up and is in
conference with representatives of the ex
press companies. This company will
cheerfully accept whatever decision is
reached, though I understand the Texas
railroad companies took the matter i p
and undertook to force the express com
panies to pay the tax, but the commis
sion lawyers advised it that it had no
jurisdiction whatever over an interstate
matter and the effort was dropped. It may
take a decision of the court to decide what
is right, but our company wants to do
what is fair and right and when the de
cision is reached will not light, but will
cheerfully acquiesce.”

THRE ATENS TO KILL SAM JONES.
51rs. Jones Causes Arrest of a Alan
With Imaginary Grievance.
Atlanta, Ga,, July 6.—ltev. Sain Joi> s.
the Cartervllle evangelist, came down to
Atlanta to-day uikjii a peculiar miss! n.
Several days ago at the request of me
evangelist’s wife an Atlanta man giving
his name as J. F. VV. Reiss was arrested
and lodged behind the bars of the police
station.
It appears that R< ies, who is a German,
has been laboring under the delusion that
Rev. gam Jones has been persecuting
him, hounding him down iff every con
ceivable way and destroying his reputa
tion.
With this delusion in his mind he went
up to Cartersville and paid a visit to the
house of the evangelist, wiio was absent.
Ills manner and talk caused Mrs. Jones
to believe that the man meant to kill 1 er
husband and his arrest was brought about
in order to prevent a tragedy.
Reiss had written a lot of maniacal lit
ters to Mr. Jones, conveying his complaint
in the most outlandish terms.
Mr. Jones came to Atlanta to-day to
see what was the matter with the man,
and what could be done with him.
In company with Judge Fite he called
at the police station and after a consul
tation with Chief Manley went to the eel!
of the prisoner. The evangelist addressed
the man in a kind lone and talked with
him for ft few minutes. Reiss did not
know who it was talking to him. He
asked, hut the evangelist and the chief cf
police thought it would be best not to
let him know lhat the man whom he ne
licved was persecuting him was present,
and Mr. Jones replied that bis name was
l’orter.
When the evangelist asked the man
what he thought of Sam Jones anyway,
he replied: "Oh. he’s a low down rascal."
The man Is undoubtedly crazy and his
condition will be brought to the
attention of the ordinary and a commit
ment to the state lunatic asylum asked
for.
Reiss came to this country from Ger
many through the efforts of Miseler &
Krimmitt, emigrant agents, who were
operating in this state several years ago.
In his ravings he frequently mentions the
names of the immigration agents.
SNA ANN AH FHESBYTBHV.
Elders and Deaeons Discuss Many
Interesting; Topics.
Waycross, Ga., July 6.—The Presbyterian
elders and deacons’ institute, which opened
last night with an address of welcome by
Rev. R. A. Brown, pastor of the Way
cross Church, and a reception to the dele
gates, was devoted to-day to elders and
ttieir part in the work.
Rev. C. C. Carson of Flemington gave
a Bible reading on the quickening influ
ence of the holy spirit.
Rev. Arthur J. Smith of the First Pres
byterian Church of Savannah spoke on
Bible study for personal growth.
Chairman John T. Brantley, an elder of
Waycross, announced the appointment of
committees on permanent organization
and resolutions, and the institute made
Eider Brantley chairman of the former
committee.
Rev. C. C. Carson, in the absence of
Rev. B. L. Baker of Florida, made an in
teresting address on church courts and the
duty of elders attending them.
Eider R. D. Brantley led the discussion
of the subject, and said, among other
things, that lack of information regarding
the,r duties was the cause of the elders
not being more prompt in attendance.
Other ministers and elders discussed the
subject and advanced such thoughts as:
Elders are not prompt in attendance be
cause they are not encouraged to talk and
discuss subjects in the courts: that the
pastors do most of the talking and most
of the work, and the elders find nothing
to do; that delegates to the presbytery
should have their expenses paid by the
church session promptly; that elders
should do more work than they now do, so
as to let the pastors be more thorough in
other duties; that eiders should learn all
they can at church courts and put the in
formation before the congregation in an
address ns soon as possible after return
ing from presbyteries and synods.
Elder C. S. Wood of ihe Savannah First
Church read an instructive paper on the
duty of elders in pastorless churches and
in mission work. There was a general dis
cussion, and many interesting and valua
ble points were brought out. Rev. E. D.
MeDougall made an address on the active
church.
To-morrow will be deacons’ day.

attained a fair size, but on red lands It
varies in size, although generally small,
owing to slow germination, some having
but recently come up. Lice almost de
stroyed some fields in Florence and Sum
ter counties, and did much damage in
Chesterfield and Orangeburg; they are
fast disappearing in the eastern counties
but have made their appearance in large
quantities in Pickens and other western
count ies.

Indicate that cotton plants are full of
squares, are blooming profusely, and in
the more southerly counties are putting on
bolls very fast.
"Sea island cotton is small, but looking
well, and shows a great improvement on
its condition of the previous week.”
