When merchants skimp quality for prices it’s inviting good customers to trade
at Bass’. We sell the best flour made; that accounts for having such a big flour
trade. Our customers do not have the trouble uf returning sorry flour to us.
Then, too, we make prices as low as possible, which is always satisfactory 40
the people. We have just receiyed 20,000 pounds of Pure wheat Bran, not adiil*
terated, suitable for hog food, as well as other stock. We are the people who
sell so much sugar and coffee. We have ju&t received two Car loads of heavy

Body Cremated.
HIS VICTIM GIRL OF THIRTEEN.
Georgia Mob at Cadartown Takes Sum¬
mary Vengeance Upon the Aaaallant
of a Little Girl Near that Place.
Cremated at the Stake.
Cedartowfi, Ga., August! 23.—The
orgy of lynching was enacted here
last night with all-it# revolting feat,
tires.
Jim Gloves, the negro who outraged
little Levin Reeves paid every penaltj
for his crime known to revenge or
torture.
Ho was tied to a tree ami shot al¬
most to piece# and bis riddled body,
dragged a mile from town to the cen¬
ter of the city and burned to ashes
on the most conspicuous spot of Main
.■street, in the very heart of the city.
Fully 2,500 pepple- witnessed his
death as beta they could in the bright
moonlight and a mob of erased par¬
ticipants whooped and sang as the
body fried and crisped.
The negro's victim was Levla, the
13-year-old daughter of Abner Reeves,
a prominent farmer, who lives about
1% miles from Cedartown.
The crime was committed as the lit¬
tle girl was carrying a cow to a pas¬
ture about a quarter of a mile from
her home.
was a most fiendish one,
and the wonde* is that the little girl
escaped from the clutches of the negro
with her life. About thirty minutes
before the crime the negro passed the
house of Mr. Reeves, who had gone
early to a mill, and tin: dog in his
yard made atthe passing negro and
the little girl hbd restrained the ani¬
mal. A few minutes later the girl
left with the cow for the pasture,
and was overtaken by the negro at the
lot. She started home, and the negro
followed her. both hastening th£ir
steps. The negro asked her if her
mother had any eggs and butter
for sale, and tried to engage the girl
in conversation.
Faillug in this, he finally jumped at
her, seizing heT by the throat and
dragging her across* the corner of a
cotton field and into a dense corn
patch. He choked the helpless vie-
tfm into insensibility, after throwing
her to,, the ground and accomplished
his awful deed. The negro left in a
hurry, and after regaining conscious¬
ness, the girl began to cry and scream,
and this attracted the attention of her
mother, who ran to her little daughter.
The scene that met her horrified
gaze was heartrending. The girl
was almost unable to move, and her
hat lay several yards from the spot
whm-e she lay. The ground showed
evidences of a struggle and the weeds
and corn were mashed down. Ths
clothing of the child was bloody and
■torn. Her neck was red And scratch¬
ed, as was her face, and In less than
ten minutes her throat was swollen
to an enormous slfh. She was car¬
ried Ip the house, and Drs. J. A. Ltd-
dell and W. A. Chapman, two of Ce¬
dar town's most prominent physicians,
were sent for.
The news was carried to the store
of Van Devander Bros., where ths
nearest telephone was reached, and
the report spread throughout the city
In a few minutes.
Men mounted horses and seized bug¬
gies and bicycles, and went Jo the
home of the crime, and within 3d
minutes over 200 people were on the
ground offering their assistance and
joining in the chase. The fields and
woods were scoured, and a negro was
met by a few men coming to town
on the road, making his way west
to the Alabama state line and th«
mountains across the line. The men
had not heard of the assault and, ol
course, did not attempt to arrest ths
fugitive,
Polk superior court would have ab
sembied this morning in fall session,
but the news of the outrage complete
ly demoralized the court, and jurors
an<l witnesses joined In the chase
without thinking of court or anything
else. The people have never been
so stirred by an incident In the history
of the county.
