LITTLE RESIGNS AS
ROAD SUPERVISOR
'Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
EATONTON. Ga.. Sept . Coming
as a distinct surprise of the week. Jesse
W. Little, who has been in charge of
the county's road improvement since
its organization and a warden since
the county convicts went under stale
control, has tendered his resignation to
the Putnam county board of commis
sioner*. As a warden has to be ap
pointed by the prison commission. War
den Little was prevailed upon to return
te his post and continu* some very Im
portant road work, as the convicts
could not be taken out of the stockade
under the law unless accompanied by
a state warden. Some frlctlop between
the superintendent and the coanty cffln
■Bssioners is reported as the cause of
Warden Little’s resignation. The
county ordered a new road open up and
objections were raised, the rued super
intendent* resignation following. The
matter will be finally at a
meeting of the county commissioners
this week. In the meantime specuU
♦. Uoa Xa rife as to the outcome.
BETWEEN THE PLOW HANDLES
AT FARMERS' CONVENTION
Practice What You preach!
Koop Everlastingly at It.
Talking about practicing what you
preach and keeping everlastingly at it;
T. J. Brooks, of Tennessee, is the fel
low who believes in doing exactly that
thing.
Brooks has been preaching Rural
Economies and intelligent marketing
for these many years and has been try
ing to instill into the minds of not only
the farmers generally this very impor
tant subject, but has endeavored to
teach the farmers’ beys also—but that
has been a task. No college of agri
culture had such a chair—there were
no text books to be found which dealt
even remotely with subject; so Brooks
is writing a text-book himself, and he
not only expects to teach from it, but
expects It or some other to be used in
the near future by every agricultural
college'in the country.
When G. R. Hightower, ex-presldent
of the Mississippi State Farmers.’ union
was elected president of the A. & M.
College of Mississippi he sent for
Brookr>. “Brooks he said,” that matter
of teaching marketing ind rural econ
omics in the agricultural colleges over
which we have talked, is about to be
put into actual effect.
“We will establish a chair in the uni
versity here and you will have charge
of it.
“A department of this kind is what
is needed in every college of the coun
try. and they will eventually have It,’’
replied Brooks.
So the A. & M. College of Mississippi
will have a department of marketing
and rural economics the first of the
kind ever established by any college
in the world—and T. J. Brooks will
be in charge.
McAuliffe Xs a Man
Who Does Big Things.
One of the most prominent delegates
attending the sessions of the National
Farmers’ union is Maurice McAuliffe,
president of the Kansas State union.
He has come to be known as the man
who does things. During his adminis
tration the Kansas union lias doubled
its membership the last year, and lias
built and is operating 70 co-operative
stores besides nearly 200 co-operative
grain elevators. The stores are capi
talized at from 110,000 to $50,000, aver
aging about $25,000.

Gas Is New to Albany
and Cooks Refuse to
"" Use the "Ghost Fire"
•• (Special Dispatch to The Journal)
ALBANY. Ga., Bept. 7.—Since gas has
been turned on in a number of Albany
homes, fallowing the completion of the
new municipal gas plant, It has devel
oped that mortal terror exists among
some of the cooks, who have refused to
have anything to do with the gas
stoves. In one home, where an old ne
gro woman has been cooking for fifteen
years, the mistress of the house has
been politely but emphatically informed
that as soon as the gss Is turned on in
that house she is going to “leave from
there.”
In the home of Secretary Eugene B.
Adams, of the Albany chamber of com
merce. there was great commotion when
the gas was turned on. The cook at first
refused to touch the stove, but finally
was persuaded to get close enough for
Mrs. Adams to show her how to light
the gas. As sometimes happens there
was enough air in the pipes to cause a
loud report when the match was touched
to the burner, and the cook, emitting a
loud yell, ran like a scared rabbit
through the house to the front porch.
Finally she was persuaded to return
to the kitchen, but Mrs. Adams had to
cook most *of the breakfast herself. At
dinner, after the rice had been put on,
it boiled over, and the resultant hissing
and* sputtering noise so frightened the
woman that she ran out the back door,
through the back yard and up the alley.
Mrs. Adams sent Mr. Adams after her,
and he succeeded tn bringing the trem
bling cook back again. She was shown
how to turn the gas down low, so that
the rice would not boll over, but she
turned it down just a little too low and
it went out with a loud “pop.” That
settled it. There was a loud screatn. a
swish of calico and—goodby, cook.

Wife Aids Sheriff
In Capturing Ten
Escaped Prisoners
'Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
OCILLA, Ga., Sept. 6.—Shortly before
day Thursday morning eleven prisoners
made their escape from the Irwin coun
ty jail. They used an iron pipe to prize
off bolts from the cage door and passed
out through the roof and down to the
ground by fastening several blankets
together and suspending them from the
roof to the ground. They are all ne
groes. Two were in for arson, one for
assault to murder and eight for misde
meanors.
A pointer dog in the yard aroused
Sheriff W. A. Tucker, who was at the
time sleeping on the first floor, by
barking, and when the sheriff reached
the yard all the prisoners had escaped
from the building but were in the yard
together. A part of therp made an ef
fort to run, but only one, in for misde
meanor, made his escape, and he is
supposed to be wounded by a shot from
the sheriff, as he fell to the ground
when fired >upon.
Three others who made a break to
get away received wounds, but not sup
posed to be serious. On emptying his
pistol at the first firing, the sheriff’s
wife boldly came to his assistance with
a newly loaded pistol, and prevented
others from making safe their getaway.
Without other aid the sheriff marched
the ten prisoners back to their cells,
while the lone one to get away is still
at large.
The wounded are being cared for at
the jai’l by the county physician, and
the doctor reports that neither is mor
tally wounded, as the shots took effect

BLACKSHEAR JUDGESHIP
TO BE DECIDED SEPT. 14
Judge Parker Sets Date for
Quo Warranto Pro
ceedings
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
WAYCROSS, Ga.. Sept. 7.—Upon the
outcome of a hearing before Judge T. A.
Parker In Waycross September 14.
rests the settlement of the fight for the
city court judgshiu in Blackshear.
When quo warranto proceedings were
filed today Judge Parker named Sep
tember 14 as the date for the hearing
and gave notice to Judge W. A. Milton.
who is claiming th* office by an ap
pointment of Gov. Hoke Smith,
that he must show cause on that date
why he should not be ousted as Judge
of the city court. The quo warranto
proceedings were filed by Wilson, Ben
nett & Lambdin for R. G. Mitchell, Jr.,
who holds a four-year commission un
der Gov. Joseph M. Brown for the of
fice Milton claims under a Smith ap
pointment.
The Blcksahear case is very much
like the fight over the Athens city court
judgship, but there are some new legal
points Involved owing to the reading
of the act creating the city court of
Blackshear. Lawyers who have cases
in the city court session due to start
Monday, are wondering how verdicts
given with Judge Mil ton presiding will
hold. The present incumbent has given
notice that he expects to be on hand
promptly Monday morning to preside,
and under his appointment Judge
Mitchell Is due to preside over the same
session.
There is this difference between the
appointments. Judge Milton's was not
confirmed by the senate and Judge
Mitchell's was. Judge Mitchell bases
his fight on this fact, end also on the
fact that Judge Milton’s appointment
was made subject to confirmation by
the senate of 1912. He claims that the
senate of 1912 has ended and that the
Milton appointment has not been con
firmed.

Locomotive Whistles
Do Not Sing Lullabys
Declare Macon People
'Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
MACON Ga., Sept. 6.—Citizens living
near the railroad lines leading in and
out of the city and those who reside
near the railroad yards are drawing up
a petition to present to council, asking
that It be a violation of the city ordi
nance for locomotives to blow their
whistles inside the city limits at night.
They claim in the petition that during
these hot nights they have been forced,
to lie awal’.e nearly every night because
of the screaming whistles of the loco
motives.
One denizen charges in a letter to
Mayor Moore that one night of this
week a locomotive engineer began to
blow his whistle at midnight and after
running the gamut of all the signals
known by engineers, he began to play
with the whistle. He declared that he
tried to imitate the cow bellowing, the
jackas braying, the horse whinnying, the
lion roaring, the yelping of a hit dog and
the scream of the hyena. Such a dis
turbance was branded by him as a
nuisance and should be stopped by the
passage of an ordinance prohibiting
such.
MRS. SAM P. JONES
NOT IN POLITICS
(Special Dispatch to The Journal)
CARTERSVILLE, Ga„ Sept. 7.-Mrs.
Sam P. Jones gave out the following
statement today:
"My name has been mentioned in the
columns of The Journal as having been
present at a recent meeting of ths
Moose party. This creates the impres
sioh among my friends and others, that
I am taking aa active stand In politics,
which is entirely erroneous. I was not
present at a 'Moose' meeting in Atlanta.
or at any other place. I have no interest
personally, or otherwise, in the political
fortunes of, any candidate except the
Prohibition candidate for president, and
I shall have nothing to do with any
organization that touches upon politics
except through the Woman's Christian
Temperance union society, of which I
am a member.”
