THE CURIOUS DEATH
OF
LITTLE BOY AT
FACTORY
GEORGIA
AFTER A CASE OF MEASLES
A Black Spot Appears on His t Face
That Ate the Flesh Away—
Death Ensued In Two Days
After Its Appearance.
There is not a city sooth of Meson
au ,l Dickson line that is more abreast of
the times than Athens, the metropolis
of Northeast Georgia.
Her advantages are numerous, and of
9U ch a nature as to command the attrae-
tic n of the capitalist,the investor and the
home builder.
The prosperity of a city depends
largely upon the character of the terri
tory that is tributary to it, and jndgeu
from this standpoint Athens shows op
well, for she is situated .to one of the
most prosperous sections of the state,
and has a large and prosperous tributa
ry territory.
The climate is splendid and Athens
lm a health tecord beyond comparison.
The death rate is exceedingly small,the
sanitation of the city is well arranged,
and he who would enjoy good health
can lind no better place to looate than
right here in Athens.
Her educational- advantages are une
qualled in Georgia, and she well de
serves the name of the Classic City
The State University is located here,ano
has an annual attendance of about tw<
hundred scholars. Lucy Cobb Insti
tute and.the Home School are two of
the finest female colleges in the South
and the oity has as fine a system of pub
lic schools as can be found in the South
In addition to these schools, the Stat
N'jrmal school has been located her.
and will open its first session next
mouth with about two hun
dred teachers in attendance,
while the summer school of the Univer
eity professors will be a new departur.
in Georgia and one that promises to d<
much good in educational circles.
Her railroads are a source of pnde to
Athens. She is the terminus for fojr
rail.onds, viz, the Georgia branch, tin
Northeastern railroad of Georgia, the
Macon and Northern, and the Georgia
Carolina and Northern.
In the oity limits there are two cot
ton factories, two foundries, three plan
ing mills and machine shops, two cot
ton compresses, all of largo capital
while there many en
terprises of smaller
capital. There are two cotton facto
ries, one paper mill and one bobbin
mill within four miles of the city lim
its. v ■
There are l our banks, with an aggre
gate capital of three hundred and sev
enty-live thousand dollars, and four*
.teen building and loan associations.
The city does an extremely large
business for its capital, the total vol
ume of business being estimated at
twelve million dollar.- per year.
An electric street car line five miles
in length, traverse 0 the principal por
tion of the city, and is doing well.
The city has a paid fire department,
and a Uamewell electric fire alarm sys
tem, which works like a charm.
The streets are lighted by electricity
and gas and the Electric Light Compa
ny furnishes private consumers with ei
ther electric light or gas as may be de
sired.
A magnificent system of sewerage
puts the city in a perfect sanitary con
dition.
The city has just voted one hundred
aiul twenty-five thousand dollars in
bonds for the erection of a new system
of water works and these bonds bearing
five percent, interest and rnnning for
thirty years have been floated at far.
Fifty thousand dollars in bonds for
street paving await the
laying the water mains when the streets
of Athens will be payed and pat in the
very best condition.
The financial condition of the city
was never better and is of such a nature
as to commrnd itself, to business men.
Outside of the water works bonds and
street improvement bonds the liabilities
«f the city amount to $06,950.00, while
the assets amount to $69,955.00,
The taxable property of the oity is
nearly seven millions of dollars and the
increase each year is nearly a million
dollar;. The tax rate is ona and ten
one-hundredths per cent.
These in brief are a few of Athens’
advances as a oity. They show that
the city is on the forward mirch to
prosperity.
With such advantages and a future
sbead of her, her energetio and pro
gressive citizens will see to It that
Athens loses no time in taking her
Nation in the very foremost rank of
Georgia cities.
—Monday afternoon near Georgia' Fac
tory the little son of Mr. Dove died.
The circumstances attending his
death were very carious, and the cause
is inexplicable.
Several weeks since the little fellow,
who was only six years old was taken
sick with an attack of measles. For
several days he was quite ill, but rallied
and recovered apparently. He went
around the house for two or three day.-
and everyone supposed that he wasget-
ting well.
He was taken sick again,however,and
hU symptoms soon proved very perplex
ing to the physicians in attendance.
Beneath the left jaw bone there ap
peared a dark black splotch onthe skin,
but little attention was paid to it when
it first appeared.
It soon began to spread and it alarm
ed the little fellow ’a parents. The phy
sician could not,explain the nature of
the case.
It rapidly turned into some kind of
an ulcer which ate rapidly upon the
flash. The little boy suffered agonies
daring the l&tt few hoars of his life.
The ulcer continued to eat its way for
two whole days until it had eaten the
entire left side of the face.
Then death came to the redef of the
little sufferer and be parsed away.
The bereaved family and the attend
ant physician are utterly non-plussed
They have no idea what caused the
appearance of the ulcer or what kind
f a disease it was that so suddenly
carried the little boy off.

TAX EQUALIZATION.
Quite a Lively Meeting of the Board
The last meeting of the Board of Tax
Equalization for Clarke county was
quite a lively one.
This time there were seventeen cases
of citizens owning suburban city prop
erty. The Board raised the assessment
at an average of about eight hundred
dollars apiece, or a total increase of
about thirteen thousand six hundred
dollars. There was considerable kiok-
ing but the decision of the Board stands
as a matter of course.
One very interesting incident oc
ourred during the meeting. The
Board had before it the tax returns of
a gentleman and his mother.
This citizen owns twenty-four acres
of land and his mother owns five acres
alongside it. He bad given in her five
acres at two hundred and fifty dollars
and his twenty-four at three hundred
dollars.
The Board .examined this case and
determined that his assessment should
be raised to three hundred and fifty
dollars.
The next meeting of the Board will
be next Monday at the court house,
CALLED HOME.
Rev. J. T. W. Vernon Writes a Card
About IL
Bov. J. T. W. Vernon, of Hartwell,
has written a card to the Atlanta 'Con
stitution concerning his knowledge of
the the new political order known as
‘Gideon’s Band.” It reads as follows:
At Lavonia, Ga., on the night of May
14th I was introduced by Dr. Bonner as
an Alliance Democrat of Hart county,
not as the president of Hart County Al
liance, as I do not hold that office at
this time, I was their first president
and served them as such for two years,
and for that reason, I suppose, the cor
respondent still thought I was presi
dent. I have held the office of County
Lecturer for the last two years and am
-itill in that office. I did not say that
the State Alliance' had anything
to do with the “Gideon
Band.” Bnt I do say that
1 was a delegate from Hart county to
the State Alliance and during that
meeting Mr. DeJarnett, of Greene coun
ty, was the man that told me all I know
about “Gideon’s Band.” and he said he
was authorized to get up such a
band in each oonnty in the eighth con
gressional district and there was one ap
pointed in each congressional district,
in the state. And that it was like
“Freemasonry,” one degree higher than
the regular alliance and would not con
diet with my political and religious
views. I being a Mason knew if It was
like Masonry it was a good thing. Two
dollars was the initiation fee. With
this assurance from DeJarnett, Brother
MoFarlan and myself were initiated in
to one of the most corrupt machines of
political corruption that was
ever cone cted on Amerioan soil
AndasitEeemsto be something new
under tbe sun I would like to know who
published all of DeJarnett’s blanks that
be had with him,for he bad quite a
number of them. I was to pay him
when I got the band made up and 1
will do it, when I make it up. I con-
s der such an organriation a clear case
of conspiracy against the principles ot
the alliance and as such I would have
nothing to do with it. Last fall wbeu
Dr. Robbings was going around lectur
ing the county alliance in this district,
DeJarnett was with him and they Came
to my boose and DeJarnett wanted to
know if I had the band ready for him to
■organize. I told him that 1 bad done
nothing. I at once saw that he - was
crest-fallen fer he had lost
his fleece. 'Brother MoFarlan is as h'gh-
toned a gentleman as there is In Frank
lin county and i knew he was a truthful
man and I could appeal to him while I
was exposing “Gideon’s Band,” that if
I made any false statement for him to
correct me. right then and there.
Brother McFarlan did not say a word
in. answer to my statement, as avery
one present that night well knows. I
am very sorry that Brother McFarlan or
any good man would suffer themselves
to be shorn of thoir grown blocks by a
Delilah and fall into the hands of the
Philistines. There are none so blind as
those that won’t see and none so deaf
as those, who won t hear. There art-
some that do see bnt deny
they see. There thOBe that hear hat
say I never beard it. This is all I know
personally about “Gideon’s Band.” 1
have heard some things that gave ri.-e
to “Gdeon’a Band” at Ocrila, Fla .
which if so would be worse than dyna
mite in the third party camp. 1 have
endeavored to answer your questions as
asked in Tbe Constitution so far as my
personal knowledge goes. I request all
democratic papers in Georgia to copy
the above in justice to myself and to
good government and to the welfare ol
tnis glorious oil commonwealth. I
cannot be heard much longer as I am in
my seventieth year, but 1 still lore my
God, my county, my wife and children
and white -supremacy. Hoping aid
graying that the last mark or resem
blance of the third party may be wip d
out at this fall’s election never to be re
surrected for the sake of greed and of
fice. J. T. W. Vernon.

On the Part of the Commissioners—No
Taxes are Being Collected—The
City Confident of Dissolving the
Injunction.
The Spirit of Mrs. Jno. S. McKle Wings
Us Sternal Plight.
One of the saddest deaths ever recor "•
ed in Athens, was that of Mrs. Jno. S.
McKie,which occurred yesterday morn
ing at 4 o’clock.
Mrs. McKie had been a sufferer for
the past few days from gastric fever,
and her death was not unexpected to
those who ministered at her bedsid*.
Mrs. McKie was a devout and noble
Christian lady, and her death removes
from this world to the heavenly .dime,
a saintly woman, devoted wife, loving
mother, affectionate sister and one
whose delight was in serving the Lord
At a tender age Miss May Hayes con
nected herself with the Methodost
church, of which she was a member un
til she married Mr. McKie, when her
membership was transferred to the
Presbyterian church. Since which
time she has olosely followed the step-
of the Master, in whom she trusted im
plleity. When the summons came die
whs rc ady and fell sweetly to sleep in
the arms of Jesus.
Mrs. McKie was the daughter of Mr
and Mrs. Howard Hayes, of Oglethorpe
county. She leaves a stricken husband,
five little children, father,two brothers
and hosts of friends to mourn her death.
May the God of consolation bind the
bleeding hearts and sanctify this str
affliction to those on whom the loss so
heavily falls.
THE WORK PROGRESSING.
The Saw and Hammer Busy In The
City.
Despite the dullness of the times,
Athens continues to erect new build
ings.
Mrs. Well’s residents on MiUedge
avenue is about completed.
Talmadge Bros, new cottage on the
Boulevard is finished.
Mr. Myer Stern's residence on Po-
laski street is in.process of erection.
Mr Chas. Morris has two nice build
ings about completed on Dougherty
street.
The new Talmadge and Myers build
ings on College avenue are nearing
completion.
Numbers of smaller houses are being
erected in various sections of the city
^And numbers of new buildings will
be started during the summer,
You can’t keep the home builders
down. Athens is growing rapidly in
population and there must be houses in
which to put all new comers. So the
building boom wiil necessarily con
tin lie.
sooner than was expected,
Tbe oity is anxious for an early hear
ing of tbe case, so that it may proceed
with the work already commenced.
Mayor Tuck, k presenting the oity in
the absence of City Attorney Backer,
requested Judge Butcbins to advance
the bearing to the ninth rest.
This was granted-by Judge Hutchins
and on the morning of the ninth the
case wiil be called at the court house in
this city.
Notice to this effect was served on the
plaintiffs in tbe case, and all sides will
come up prepared to fight it out on the
ninth.
Tbe city is anxioua to get through
with the case as soon
as possible, as the
injunction very seriously clogs the bus
iness of the city.
The water commissioners have ad
vertised for bids on the new works and
have already mad* preparations to be
gin. They have suspended operations,
however, under the order of the Judge,
and cannot move-a peg until , the in
junction case is settled.
The City clerk has had to stop the
collection of taxes on account of the in
junction placed upon him in the mat
ter.
The injunction, forbids the collection
of taxes for the purpose of paying tbe
interest on the water works bonds, and
as that is included in tbe general tux
levy of one and ten hundredths per
c nt there can be no collection of any
taxes. '
So the wheels of the city government
are locked.
A FEARFUL RUNAWAY.

To a Press reporter who was a

The Criminal’s career.
Rich Lowry belongs to a peculiar
mixed race of people who have their
principal habitat at a small
town or village in
North Carolina known as Scuffietown
from the ch&raotei istic disorders of tbe
population. They are said to be a mixed
race of white, iLdian and negro blood,
and are usually designated Souflleto-
nians. With the decline of the naval
store or tutp.ntioe business in North
Carolina many of these people drifted
inio the pine r< gion of South Georgia
and among them was Rich Lowry, alias
Herring. Rich claims to be a nephew
f the notorious North Carolina outlaw
Henry Berry Lowry.
Scuffietown is in Roleson county,
North Carolina, and is a typical free
negro town, where every grade and type
of the Degro and mulatto can be seen.
A large reward was offered for Lowry
some time ago and bis captors haye now
got a rich prize.
The total amount offered is $1,750, of
whlhhj760 is offered by the United
States Govefhmen t, and $l,C004eoSevtd

railway, which left Jacksonville and
was dne here this morning, broke a lo
comotive wheel ten miles north of this

MET AND FOUQHT.
Lively Times In Politics Over In South
Carolina.
Newberry, S. C. May 31.—A sensa
tional fight occurred here today. It is
thought that fatal results may follow.
Both of the combatants are among the
most prominent men in Abe State. Dr
Samson Pope, one of the parties, is a
candidate for congress from the Third
district, and Colonel Ellison Keitt, the
other, is the leader of the Third party
in South Carolina. Dr. Pope broke i
walking oane over Colonel Keitt’s head
The origin of thefnss seems to have been
tbe following paragraph, which ap
peared in a local paper over the signa
ture of Colonel Keitt, which Dr. Pope
had reason to believe was intended for
him.
Of the vast number it would bo curi
ous to know how many of the Tillman
gang who are pre-eminently “in favor
of revenue only,” were in the work.
One at least who is load in their coun
sels, the first fight his company was in,
he lit ont and lef L He lifted his feet so
fast that a bullet could not catch him.
He made straight for the hospital and
yellow flag and never lessened his speed
until he got safely within the wall of
one and under the folds of the other.
He oonld never be induced to return to
his command. The end of the war found
him under the yellow flag attending to
thesiok and wounded in a safe place.
He Is now in congenial company.
Col. Keitt waa formerly ajstrong Till-
manite, hut when the dominant ele
ment refused to send him to the senate
in the place of Wade Hampton he turn
ed against them and has. been exceed
ingly bitter ever since. As Keitt has a
son who is a candidate for congress
against Pope.it is thought that the ar
ticle was written with the view to injur
ing Pope in the race. Dr. Pope was
fined $10 by Mayor Blalock. As both
parties are courageous and hot-headed
it is thought the affair will terminate
in a shooting affray.
Having re-entered busiuess in my new and rooi
stables, I again solicit that liberal patronage which the
;ood people have heretofore accorded me. I promise
them that same fair dealing which has always been
my endeavor to hav e with them.
