Tli 111 hi Now tho Name of Om- Cnt-
^ tonsnofl Oil HI 11 Is.
The word “cotton” now ap
pears so frequently in the names
of Cedartown manufacturing en

“Cotton!’, from the name..

lowing tlio authorization by thb
Court for alteration of name in

rectors : J. E. Houseal, presi
dent and manager; E. VanWin-

UNKNOWN MAN MURDEKEII
Between Km: k in lift nnd Avugnn Last-
Saturday.
Coroner .1. O. Crnbh was summoned
to pass on the body of. an unknown
viotim of fout murder last Saturday,
the deed having been committed on
the Southern railway between Rook-
mart and Aragon.
The investigation showed the man
was shot from the rear with bird shot,
the load entering the back nf Lite head
at the base of the brain. The victim
fell beside the ernssties, and- rolling
down an embankment a few feet, the
blood stains indicating his struggles
The man was an umbrella mender,
carrying a satchel of tools,and having j
several little trinkets,but bore nothing j
on his person to, identify him. .His :
pookets were rilled, showing the deed |
to have been done for purposes- of
robbery, lie was apparently forty
years old, and will doubtless carry the
mystery of his murder to ihe great
beyond. '
