Result of Sensation at Romo
Georgia
Rome, Ga., Sept. 16,—A1l seven ot
the prominent Chattooga county people
thrown into jail Saturday by Judge
Moses Wright tor contempt of cour r ,
and under indictment for compounding
a f lony in their alleged concealing
of evidence and witnesses in charges
of rape and seduction, spent Sunday
and today in jail at Summerville.
William Bagley is also held under
indictment for the rape of his own
daughter, and William Hayes is in
dicted tor the seduction of Washington
Reynolds’ daughter. These cases are
expected to come up in the regular or
der of the court, but it is probable
that Judge Wright will be asked to
allow a hearing soon by the defense,
through which they hope to be freed
on bond.
Besides Hayes and Bagley men
tioned above, those in jail are Rev.
W. Mulkey Hill, age 60, a preacher in
the Methodist church; W. H. Dempsay,
Washington Reynolds; his son, Benja
min Reynolds, and Mrs. Ethel Bagley

LEAPS INTO NIAGARA
RIVER AND DROWNS
Hawkins Caught Before When
Ready to Jump
Niagara Falls, N. Y., Sept. 16.—A
man believed by the police to be John
Hawkins, 68 years old, of Erie, Pa,
committed suicide this afternoon by
jumping into the Niagara river from
the lower steel arch bridge which
spans the river just above the start
of the whilrpool rapids. It is 200 feet
above the water.
Two women standing on the Cana
dian cliff saw the man climb on the
railing. He sat astride the rail sev
eral minutes looking down at the tur
bulent waters, then lurched forward.
His body shot downward and struck
the water headforemost. He came tt
the surface once before the white foam
of the big drift closed over him.
The suicide was the first from the
lower arch bridge in three years. Haw
kins was pulled from the bridge rail
ing Saturday night, but convinced his
captors then that he was not bent on
suicide.

THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECCRDER.
H. C. BAGLEY IS READY TO COMBAT
WEEVIL ON SOUTH GEORGIA FARMS
Former Americus Man Will Diversify Crops as Most
Effective Means of Protection Against Ravages of
Weevil—Little Cotton Will Be Planted on His
Farm Next Year.
Mr. H. Clay Bagley, accompanied by
Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Bagley, made a
motoring trip to Americus yesterday
from his fine farm a dozen miles nort.i
of the city and which, by the way, will
soon be made not only one of the most
productive in the state but one of the
attractive show places cn the Ander
sonville-Thomasville highway.
Mr. Bagley is putting this finq tract
of 1,600 acres under wire fence for the
V
purpose of pasturing cattle and fine
stock, which he is going to raise in
stead of sticking to the “all cotton”
theory. More especially now, at the
approach of the boll weevil Mr. Bag
ley sees the handwriting upon th>
wall as regards the weevil, and is go
ing to prepare for it. Diversification,
Mr. Bagley asserts, is the only protec
tion afforded the Georgia farmer, and
will diversify his crops, acocrdingly.
Wheat, oats, corn, alfalfa, peas, vetch
and other smaller but equally denutn
erative crops will supplant cotton on
the Bagley farm.
Stock-raising, too, will receive spec
ial attention, Mr. Bagley declares, and
a big dairy with a half hundred fine
milch cows will be an institution on
the Bagley farm. Already Mr. Bagley
has purchased a herd of txventy-fDe
pedigreed cows and will increase the
number as fast as possible.
He will also raise horses, cattle,
goats, chickens and fine stock gener
ally, and feels confident that the in
come from his fine farm under the
new plan of procedure will prove even
more profitable than when cotton bales
were the principal annual product even
PLAIDS WITH PLAIN MATERIAL
A FAVORED FASHION
Dark silk and woolen plaid materials
and gayer ones for those who admire
them are one of the newest lines at
the dress goods counters. With com
bination ideas leading, here is one that
has many distinctive style features.
The sketch on the right shows how a
dark plaid woolen has been made up
with a navy blue velveteen coat in
Russian blouse effect. The crossed
front and the moderate length of the
coat, only thirty inches in the back, be
speak the latest details. The skirt is
cut with four gores, draped only at the
sides for the prevailing peg top full
ness, which is confined in an inverted
plait. The woman who is handy with
her needle and a pattern will find this
model will repay her effort many times
in its style and comparatively small
cost. Two and seven-eighths yards of

at present high prices prevailing for
the staple.
“Diversification is our only safe
guard,” declared Mr. Bagley, “and.
while the destructive bell weevil may
not reach south Georgia for a year or
two, I propose to take time by the
forelock and be in a condition of pre
paredness when the blow falls here
with demoralizing effect.
