A BRIGHT YOUTH DIES IN SGPERTGN. Our beloved son and friend has gone to meet with those on the other shore. His going is our loss, but his gain. We will wait until some sweet day, then we mean to join him on the beautiful streets of God's own home, high up in Glory Land. Clarence Barwick was born in 1 this county at Lothair, Aug. 20, 189.“}. Some years ago his fat her, Mr. L. W. Barwick, moved to Soperton, and as Clarence grew in years he also grew in manli ness, and was respected and lov ed by all that knew him. Some days before he left us he ; was taken ill w r ith fever, and his I suffering did not last long for God was ready for him, and on 1 the 28th of April, 1011, Clarence ; bid adieu to loved ones here be low to join the happy ones in mansions above. We, with many friends and loved ones, gathered at the lied Bluff church, April 29th, to pay our last respect to our beloved friend. The funeral services were conducted by Kev. W. C. Embry. Kind and loving hands laid him away to await the final call of (lod. Our heart-felt sympathy and i love goes out to father, mother, - sister, brother and loved one. Cod grant some sweet day -with- < out a missing one when all may be gathered home in heaven. W. C: E. HE MADE M9HEV INSTEAD OF PAPER.' Ocilla, Ga., May 8. .1. E. Green, of Atlanta, was today convicted in the city court of Ocilla for the offense of cheating | and swindling. Green came to Ocilla in the j fall of 1909, representing an At lanta corporation with a suppos- , ed capital stock of s.'>oo,ooo. Green represented that this cor- t poration was solvent and that l stock in it was valuable, and stated that it proposed to build | a mill in Ocilla for the purpose ( of making paper from cotton j ( stalks. He stated that the com- , pany had a large amount of \ money deposited in an Atlanta , bank, but that this money was ; needed to buy valuable maehin ( cry on which the company had an option. He induced promi nent people here to endorse a note for a large amount, and when the note matured the en dorsers learned that the company was a fake and they had the note to pay. Green has not yet been sen tenced. A NEGRO BABY IS BAIT FOR RAZ9RBACK. Stillmore, Ga., May 5. t A hungry razorbnek hog was pre vented from devouring a 9-year old negro child near here this morning, only by the prompt ac tion of Dr. Smith, who happened to be passing the house of Nelson ('beeves, the father of the baby. Dr. Smith heard the terrified screams of the child and stopped his buggy. The big hog was just dragging the child under the house when attacked by Dr. Smith, and made to drop its bur den. The enraged animal want ed to attack the doctor who used, his whip as he probably never did before. The right arm of the child was badly chewed up and lacerated by the long tusks of the hog. The doctor dressed the wound before the parents of the child, who wore at work in a near b> field, were aware of the near tragedy. ROBBED TAMPA SAFE. Tamp. Fla.. May 5. The safe in the office of the Orpheum Theater here was entered in the early morning hours and robbed of $1,900. The theater indirect ly across the street from the police station. Holes were drill-, ed through the safe door and the! combination removed. ENGLISH TO TRY TO .j RAISE G’JR COTTON, .Jackson, Miss., May (>. It developed today that English ■ spinners are interested in the purchase of the two Scott plan tations in the delta, resulting in the formation of two large cor porations, and that, for the first time in the history of cotton cul ture, the spinners will begin to produce the staple. Two separate corporations were formed by a group of spinners, | who have associated with them Memphis ajid one Jackson capi talist. Most of the money in vested is from London, and the companies will engage two ex- I peril need men to conduct the j farming operations for them. It is said that another British group is considering the purchase of som ■ of the cut-over lands in | Southwest Mississippi for cot j ton purposes. Representatives of the English , | financiers have been in Mississip pi several ‘days looking into con ditions and it is these same capi talist or their associates who are j looking over the Mississippi Cen tral railroad and United States Lumber Company. It. is report 'd that options have been secured on these properties and that an effort was made to get an option >n the New Orleans Great North ern railroad but failed. The statement is made from a I reliable source, that foreign cap- j italists ar• looking to Mississippi | for investments, and that other ! syndicates may get into this J state in a short time. Some of j these corporations, it is said, may take over extensive agricultural interests, while others are look-j ing for investment in various lines. Foreign spinners are going in to the cotton producing business hey believe that, in a few years, the price of the staple will ad-j vance to a point where it will i he impossible to go into the open j market for the product and make j purchases at figures that will al- j low a fair margin of profit to th«.*' manufacturer. In other words' they believe it will he cheaper to raise their own cotton than to! buy it through the usual chan-; nels. and the cotton raised on; the Triumph and Lake Vista plan tations will be ginned, compress ed and shipped direct from these plantations to the cotton mills in England. RACING IS DEAD IN FLORIDA STATE. Jacksonville, Fla., May 5. Horse racing in this state re ceived a death blow this after-; noon when the anti-race track Belding bill was passed by the. lower house of the legislature by a vote of (>1 to 1. The solitary, vote against the bill was cast by !{. I*'. Rogers, of Marion County. It is claimed by many that the measure will probably be found unconstitutional in that it vio lates another statute specifying that each law enacted shall em brace but one subject. This, it is said, accounts for the practically unanimous vote in ; the house today. The measure already has passed the senate and now awaits the governor’s action. CRISP IN LINE FOR SENATORIAL PRIMARY- Cor dele, Ga., May. 6. As the time draws near for the conven ing of the legislature, at which time a selection for the United States Senate will be made by that body, comes many rumbling complaints from the voters of Crisp County against the state executive committee for not call ing a primary to let the voters of this state decide as to who they want to represent them in the Senate of the United States. Many prominent citizens express their sentiment favorable to a primary. Exprt ssions have been heard from many representatives from the surrounding counties favorable to the calling of this primary, and unless this is sub mitted to the people there will be much dissatisfaction through out South Georgia.

Had pains in my head and eyes. It felt as though there was a heavy weight on the top of my head, until it seemed that my brain would burst. I was so nervous that I could not rest or sleep. When I dozed oft I would awake with a sudden jerking of my whole body. Dr. Miles’ Nervine, Heart Remedy and Nerve and Liver Pills cured me. A number of friends have since realized the same benefits.” MRS. ALVIN H. LOCKS, Seabrook, N. H. The after effects of LaGrippe are often more serious than the disease, as it leaves the system in a weakened condition that invites more serious troubles, such as pneumonia, etc. Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine should be taken for some time to thoroughly restore nerve strength. Dr. Miles’ Nervine Is sold by all drug- \ gists. If the first bottle does not benefit, your druggist will return your money. MILES MEDICAL CO., Elkhart, Ind. Trespass Notice.
