SHOT HIMSELF!
A Probable Fatal Accident to
Colector Jones.
Deputy Collector B. J. Jones met
with a very deplorable accident
terday which may cost him his life.
About half past one o’clock, intend¬
ing to go off on the Carrollton train,
he went over to his room at the
Hotel Curtis to get his pistol and
possibly some other articles. Tak¬
ing the revolver, a large 44-caliber,
out of his trunk, it fell on the floor
and was discharged, the ball passing
into his abdomen. As he was lean¬
ing over at the time, the ball passed
slantipg through the body and
lodged back of the left shoulder, and
the wound is a very dangerous one.
Drs. Moore, Anthony and Taylor
were called and are doing all that
they can for^the unfortunate man,
but it is scarcely possible that be can
livelong.
Mr. Jones came herefrom Thomas-
ton a few weeks ago, and is well liked
by those who know him, and his
unfortunate accident is regretted by
all. He is a widower, about thirty-
five years old and has two children.
m LET-
FOR.. m BUILDING8 ON
EXPERIMENT FARM,
To ti Atlanta Party Wtat » firiflbi
Contractor Hays About the
Matter. ,
The contract for erecting building
on the experimental farm was let Fri¬
day.
W. T. Arnold, of Atlanta, was the
successful bidder, his contract being
five thousand dollars.
The contract calls for the erection
of two eight-room residences, with
all the modern conveniences. One is
tor the agriculturist, Mr. Kimbrough,
and the other is lor the horticultur¬
ist, Mr. Speth. .
Work will be begun at once, and
by the first dsy of December the
buildings will be ready lor occupancy,
if the agreement is fulfliiied.
W. H. Parkins is thp architect and
superintendent of the work. His
plans ate very convenient, and the
site for the buildings has been so se
letted that when the park is laid off
and finished they will be on either
side of the wain entrance.
Director ledding’s residence is just
between the two, and when every¬
thing is put in shape the effect will be
decidedly artistic.
The two buildings vrijl be of wood,
with fin irterior finish of Georgia
pine. The work of putting in alarge
newhydrailic ram is already under
way. This will supply the buildings,
and the whole place, with water.
The agriculturist and horticultur¬
ist, with their families, aretemporar-
ly quartered on the farm.
These two buildings are all that
will be eretted this year, but it is
purposed te erect another building
for the offices of the station.
Ground will be broken on Monday
or Thursday for the building^
WHAT HR. WESTBROOK SAYS.
Meeting I. S. Westbrook yesterday,
a News ah» Sun reporter asked him
how the Griffin contractors and car¬
penters cane to let an Atlanta man
get a job that naturally belonged to
Grifflfc. •
“No Grifln man made a bid,” said
Mr. Westkrook. “The men at the
head of tie institution seemed de¬
termined «run it in Atlanta, and
we thought it useless to mix in. The
manner of letting the contract was
unprecedented in all my experience.
Heretofore, when any public building
was to be erected in any county, the
plans and specifications were open to
inspection at some place in that
county, as well as in the office of the
architect, wherever he might be. It
would have been very easy to have
sent a duplicate set of deawings to
the farm here, when Griffin contrac¬
tors would have had a chance to
figure on them. But instead, if we
had wanted to make a bid, we would
have had to go to the trouble and
the expense of going to Atlanta upon
the uncertain chance of finding the
drawings in the office at the time.
The plans as first proposed were
snmitted to Mr. Bennett and myself
for an estimate as to their probable
cost and we spent a day and two
nights of gratuitous work upon them.
Finding that the cost would be two
great according to the original ideas,
they were modified considerably]and
then sent to Atlanta to be bid upon.
“I thought when the people of
Spalding county gave sixteen thous¬
and dollars to secure the experiment
farm that Spalding county was to
be allowed to at least be a competi¬
tor for some of the benefits to be de¬
rived from it. In other words,
thought it was te be a Griffin enter¬
prise and not an Atlanta one.
The reporter so, too; and there is
room for thought in what Mr. West¬
brook says.
THE ALLIANCE EXCHANGE.
If It b Wanted, It Most be Worked
For at Once.
If the Affiance Exchange is want¬
ed at this place, subscriptions should
be started at once. A week from to¬
morrow the bids will be opened—and
a week is a very short time.
The Alliance men are the ones to
take hold of the matter and push it
through. We would suggest that
they take the subscription list to the
experiment farm, and see whether
the subscribers, being relieved of
paying for the purpose named, will
allow the amounts to go toward the
Exchange.
