Brown Gives SIOO,OOO to Tech Atlanta, Ga., Sept 17 —The will of the late Julius L Brown was made public today by Gov Jos M Blown, his brother, he leaves ap proximately SIOO,OOO to the Georg gia -school of Technology for the founding of the “Julius L. Brown Chair of electricity and Chemistry.” The income from the bequest is to he used for supporting and main taining this department. Govern or Brown invited President K. G. Matheson, of the Tech, to the exec utive mansion tonight and informed him of this provision in his broth er’s will. ’ Mr Brown provided that his wife would receive one-half of the net income during the remainder of her life. At her death the estate is to be divided into three parts and two thirds of it goes to the Tech and one-third to .Jos M. Brown. Mr. Brown left an estate valued at more thans2oo,ooo. Mr. Brown also left $7,000 for a monument to his Too ther. These statues are to lx- plac ed on the capitol grounds in the event the state will permit them to he placed there; if not, they are to be placed somewhere in the city of Atlanta. In the will occurrs the unusual instance of the testator making be quests to persons who were friends to his father and the revoking them because they were inimical to his brother Mr. Brown left in h:s will, which is dated 1907, B<,ooo each for General William Phillips of Marietta and Col L X Trammell, of Dalton Both are now dead Gen Phillips having died about a year and a half ago. General Phillips, it is stated, nominated Joseph E. Brown for governor of Georgia in 18ti0, and was his warm personal and politcal friend. But in the campaign of 1908 when Jos M. Brown was a condidate for govern or, Gen Phillips was found arrayed on the side of Hoke Mnith. In the case of Colone lTrammell, who lias been dead for several years, his son, Paul S Trammell and other members of the family rendered strong political service against Gov ernor Brown and in favor of Hoke Smith. For these reasons which Mr. Brown states pointedly and emphatically in a codicil to his will made following the election in 1908 he revokes the bequests for monu ments to General Phillips and Colo nel Trammell. That is the only co dicil to the will and the only change made in it since the death of the testator’s daughter in 1907. J. A. Fausett, formerly of the firm of Peacock & Fausett of this place, goes to Sandersville the first of November, where he will open a hardware business for himself. Before You Buy. Smith and Brown Factions Disagree ■ Macon, Ga., Sept. H). —Progres- j sive Democrats and the OtKJY sort mixed in a fight over tlu- naming of ,a new county Democratic executive committee at the court house last night and when the end came two different meetings had named their representatives and the county a woke this morning with two com mittees. • One represented the Smith views in state polities and the other represented the Brown fac tion. Boland Ell is-was made chair man of the regulars, as the meeting proper was termed. P II Gambrell, former chairman, vacated the chairmanship of the old eomiltee for Mr. Ellis, and he pre sided over a rather stormy meeting until the Smith faction, headed by T S Felder, E L Martin; T E Byals and others withdrew ana held a meeting in the city court room, where T E Byals was made chair man of another committee and com mitteemen were named. The latter named committee will take the con test up to the state committee, ac cording to resolutions drawn. The regulars went on and finished the meeting by naming committee members and will stick to the action. C. W. Smith the Fa mous Squirrel Hunter. G \V Smith, J. P. Wimberly, Monroe Bullard, Long Taylor, and Jubie Reeves went squirrel hunting at Ainslie Tuesday. The whole ‘ hunch” killed (ill squirrels. Out of that number our “famous hun ter,” C. W. Smith, killed 33, lie’s hard to beat. He says he could have killed 50 just as easy, but had as many as he wanted to carry. These other gentlemen are all good hunters but it seems that Mr. Smith has them all “skinned.” Death of Julius Bloodsworth .Julius Bldbdsworth, a young man about 24 years old, and son of Tim Bloodsworth, died at his home about three miles from Cochran last Thursday. He is survived by his father, one brother, and one sister. Mr. Bloodsworth was a young man of sterling qualities and had many friends. His death was very sudden. He was in Cochran, apparently well, Saturday. He-was taken sick on Sunday and died the following Thursday. He was buried at the Bloodsworth grave-yard Friday. Miss Rosa Clements and Mrs. Georgia Pittman, of Towns, are vis iting the family of I. A. Willis. Oldfield’s Sal ary for Races Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 21. “Barney Oidfield Secured for Atlanta Races at Salary of Three Million Dollars a Week.” This truthful but misleading headline appeared recently in an Atlanta newspaper. As a matter of fact Barney has been engaged at the raa- of $3,084,48!) per week. Bit of course he has not been engaged fqr the whole —only for a shade ov er 3") seconds, in fact. Oldfield is coming to Atlanta with his 200 horse power “BHtzen” Benz under a verbal contract to break the American speedway rec ord of 35.(13 for a mile. If he does it, he will get SSOO for turning the trick. ' That will net him some $14.28 a second. Rockefeller and Cafnegie haven’t anything on that. Oldfield has also entered his Knox and will doubtless enter his Grand Prize Benz for the Atlanta Speed way meet. And Bun Cirscher has struck in his venerable but speedy Darracq. In addition three Staver cars, two Black Crows and two Fal ears have recently been entered and there are now 21 machines formally entered for the Atlanta meet of Xov. 3,4, and 5. Hobble Skirts Barred at University of Chicago. Chicago Sept. 20—There will he no hobbling in hobble skirts over the eapmus of Northwestern university this fall, despite the fact that the institution boasts the prettiest and best dressed co-eds Lq the world. The faculty, it was declared today, has ordered itn edict against the ,‘cramped skirt,” and is prepared for resistance from the ultra-fash ionable young women students. “Hobble skirts will he barred at Northwestern, but not by my or ders,” was the way Registrar David H. Stephens put it when question ed Indeed, no one could be found who would father this edict against the hobble, but perhaps visions of ang ry young women had something to do with tliis backwardness. “I have not heard of such an or der,’’said Dean Thomas of the Ho!- gate, “ but my ignorance need not be surprising Why, J would not know a hobble skirt if 1 met it face to face” “I Ir.ve heard of no formal or der. but you can be sure no hobble skirts will be seen on the North western campus” said Miss Mary Rose Potter, dean of women and in charge of Willard hail, the home of women students ija residence.
