THE BANNER, FRIDAY MORNING.
MARCH 17, 1911.
TEAMS OF DEimw
FROM AUJORTH GEOSG
Half a Hundred Local Expert Directors of the Farm
ers’ Extension Work Under Government Sup. r-
vision Are Here For Three Days’ Conference
and Comparison of Reports.
(From Tuesday's Banner.)
A three days' session of the dis
trict and local agents of the govern
ment's educational extension work
among the farmers of the northern
half of the state began at the State
College of Agriculture yesterday
morning at 1# o'clock, District Agent
K. Gentry, of Jonesboro, having dl
rectlon of the convention.
About fifty of these special agents
for districts and counties were pres
cnt—Indeed every county special lo
cal agent reporting yesterday, with
one or two exceptions, and they will
likely arrive today. The names of
those who are .here appear below-
the north Georgia agents only—that
part of the Jist down to J. H. John
son, of Twiggs county. The meeting
tor the southern part of the state will
he Field in that section.
The program as appended was fol
lowed for yesterday with the excels
tion that Professor Campbell's ad
dress on the_ boys’ corn club work
was substituted for the second num
ber on the morning program In order
to nllow Prof. Campbell to leave yes
terday afternoon to resume his work
with the educational train. An. ail
dress was. also delivered yesterday
morning at the opening session by
Dr. A. M. Soule, president of the
State College of Agriculture, who was
In the city fdr the day.
The morning session was held at
the State College and the afternoon
was most Interestingly and profitably
spent on the farm In Inspection of the
preparations being made for the com
ing crop.
These local agents are working un-
tier the extension work In charge of
Dr. S. A. Knapp. They solicit a num
ber of "demonstrators’’ In their re
spective counties—Intelligent and
leading farmers who will agree to
take and read the bulletins furnished
from Dr. Knapp's office In the gov
ernment department of agriculture,
and cultivate one acre or more of]
either corn or cotton, or both, strictly
by the rules and directions laid down
In these bulletins. The suggestions
and formulae contained In these bul
letins are the result of actual experi
mentation which has been successful
for several yeurs past. These dem
onstrators consult with the local
agent, and he must visit their dem
onstration plots at least once a month
during the time of the preparation
and cultivation of the corn or cotton
crop. He Inspects the work and takes
notes on the processes and results
sending In his reports In book form
to the department at the end of the
year. One local agent In an average
county in north Georgia had last year
thirty-four demonstrators among the
middle-aged planters: this year he
has fifty-eight, and in addition
these regular fifty-eight he has
large number of "co-operators” with
whom he works, advising them and
Riving them the advantagp of the bul
letin “lessons and examinations

plan Is bearing fruit. In all sections
of the state and supplements the work
of the State College, the educational
train, and the farmers’ Institutes.

Overseer Voliva, Dowie’s Successor
Had Long Line of Tribulations
Chicago, fll„ March 13.—When Zion
City passed from the bands of the
Federal court Into the control of Wil
bur Glenn Voliva last week It was
believed that the trials and tribula
tions of the famous community found
ed.by the late “Elijah" Dowie were
about ended. The ending of the re
ceivership through the payment of
9*00,000 by Voliva's brokers was ac
cepted as the beginning of the long
promised "new era," under which
Zion's factories and business enter
prises are to yield great dividends to
the cltlxens.
But Overseer -Voliva, whom liowle
designated as his successor shortly
before his death, bss found his path a
thorny one. Ousted from Zion City,
sued for debt and thrown Into Jail

periences since he assumed the lead

Mayor Pro Tem Ben Woods yester
day morning, snd on account of the
defendant’s having recently lost “two

rising superior to all difficulties, Vol
iva finally succeeded In gaining finan
cial control of the 91,330.000 property
of the community.
And now he has to battle for poll-
tlcal control of the little city, without
which his spiritual leadership and fin
ancial authority will avail him little.
The matter will be settled In the pri
mary election In Zion City tomorrow.
Upon the result depends the question
of Voliva's supramey. The political
campaign between Voliva and his op
ponents has been one of extreme bit
terness. Voliva Is charged by Ills
political foe* with having threatened
terrible punishment to all members
of Zion who voted against him. De
spite the alleged threats the opposi
tion Is keeping up Its fight to the last
and expresses confidence In bringing
about Volvla’s overthrow at the polls
tomorrow.

Danielsville Court Was
Full of Criminal Busi*
ness and Several
UilU«U ll CUS;S.
(Special to The Banner.)
Danielsville, Ga., March 13.—Court
is not in session here today and there
will be no sessions all this week,
Last week was a very busy one,
great many criminal ca3es being dis
posed of, and among the number were
several of Interesting civil nature and
a larger number than for many terms
of serious and Important criminal
cases, much Interest Delng taken In
these latter.
Court Next Week.
Judge Meadow will reconvene court
next Monday and there Is probably
more business to be disposed of right
away than all the next week can set*
adjudicated, so If deemed necessary
the presiding Judge will continue the
court from day to day or call an ad
journed team at some later dater In
the spring.
Aged Negro's Gold Mine.
One of the most Interesting rases
on the list of civil business wa* the
case In which ejectment proceedings
were Instituted against Charles Me-
Daniel, colored, the petitioners being
O. 8. and 8. C. Dove, white citizen*.
The negro Is 97 years of age. He
bought a farm from the Dove broth
ers, paying a small part of the pur
chase money on the property and giv
ing his notes for the balance. The
deferred payments were not met,
was shown, and became past due.
the meantime, however, the nearly
hundred-year-old darkey made a rich
find on the place—an almost parallel
“ase to that of the man in the New
Testament parable who discovered
treasure In a field, straightway went
and sold all that he had and bought
the possession, with the exception of
the little detail, however, that
didn't sell all that lye had and that,
‘•bile he did buy the field, he failed
to meet his payments upon It. The
rich find was lp the shape of a gold
vein. The state geologist and state
chemist made assays of the ore taken
cut and it was discovered to be rich—
the samples of ore tested by them and
also samples sent to the assay -office
In Philadelphia indicating that there
was gold In paying quantities and
ranging from $20 to 930 a ton. But
that was not all, sapphires and rubles
and garnets were also found on tbe
place. Tbe ejectment action resulted
In an order from tbe court directing
that ,the property be sold and the
balance of purchase be paid to the
former owners who sold the place
to the aged negro.
One Year for Manslaughter.
One of the ltghteet sentences
the history of the state was given
one defendant for manslaughter—In
fact, the shortest term the law al
laws as a penalty for this offense.
In the case of -Arthur Dixon, a white
man, charged with the murder of
Grover Drake, another white, the Jury
found Dixon guilt of manslaughter
and recommended that he be given
tbe lightest sentence which the law
allows—a very unusual recommends
tlon. The Jury acceded to the rec
ommendation and Dixon was sen
tenced to one year In the chalngang.
Two Othsr Murder Catss.
Lonnie 81ms, colored, was placed
on trial for murder, the killing of an
other negro named George Williams
He was found guilty and recommend
to the mercy of the court, receiv
ing a life sentence.
Jim Powers, also a negro, was tried
for the murder of another negro with
whom he had engaged In a personal
difficulty, a quarrel about who had
lilt nerest to a mark at a target prac
tice. He was found guilty of man
slaughter and waa given a sentence
fifteen years.
Town Marshal Fined.
Charlie Kidd, marshal of Daniels-
vllle, was placed on trial for shoot
ing at another, having shot Charles
Snelllngs on last Christmas day. He
was found guilty and given, two
years.
Will Daniel, colored, was also found
guilty of shooting st another, the
shooting occurring while the negro
hnd several while boys were on
possum hunt. Daniels was sentenced
the gang for two years.

Work has actually been begun
the new 9*5,000 passenger station
which the Seaboard Air Line Railway
Company Is to erect for the city
Athens.
Contractor H. A. Walkup, of Rich
mond, has arrived In the city and
planning the details of the prelimi
nary work rapidly and carefully,
that when the large force of hands
gets down to active work the build
ing may be pushed as rapidly as pos
sible.
Yesterday tne work of the removal
of the brokerage business of Rowland
ft Co. from the old freight depot, now
a part of the old frame station in use,
to the uptown freight terminals
the road on Broad street, was begun
end the first steps were taken pre
paratory to rolling the present ware
house to the lot at the rear of the
Boston bakery. Several carloads
material have arrived and the con
tractor is busy negotiating for ot
material, labor, and sub-contracts.
Mr. Walkup expressed the intention
yesterday of giving the Athens firms
every order for material which he
ran—giving the home people tbe pref
erence In every case where be can
get material at as low figures here
as he would have to pay elsewhere.
Doubtless the local dealers In lumber,
brick, cement and lime, roofing, plumb
ing goods, hardware and the other big
lots of goods In the construction lino
which go Into such a building can
give the contractor the prices and the
qunllty of material he will deaians,
and his spending money for a large
part of the material here will mean
much added to the circulation. Be
sides, there will be a number of la
borers and skilled mechanics given
employment while the building Is In
progress. ** i*
The new station Is to be a passen
ger station only for use of tbe only

accommodate also the Gainesville
