CHURCHWELL STORES
ARE CONSOLIDATED
Six Retail Stores In, Albany, Cor dele,
Waycross, Fitzgerald, Tilton and
Sylvester—Big wholesale bus-
ness being established in
Cordele.
Rather Than Live As Cripple;
Boy Puts Bullet In His Brain
An IntcrestlnK announcement in
the bunlne«» world ha» been made by
llcasra A. F. Churchwell, of Albany,
and J. H. Churchwell, of Cordele, who
ooo, an.l the brothera are couCu<
that It will reach the half million
dollar mark this year. Thia In Itself
ia n splendid entcrprlae, but to this
have formed n co-partnership nnd ! Is being added a big wholesale bua
will conduct their *ix retail stores
under the firm name of Churchwell's.
In addition to the six retail stores
which will be operated by these two
bt others, a largo wholesale dry goods
business will be established at Cor
dele. This will give the new firm
thriving retail stores at Albany, Cor
dele, Waycross, Fitzgerald. Tlfton and
8yWester and a big wholesale house
at Cordele.
ine*H, now being established, will be
gin with two traveling men and a
largely stocked and efficiently equip*
ped business.
It is interesting in considering this
big business Interprise, which Is rep
resented in six of the leading South
Georgia towns, to take a peep in the
business history of the men who
have developed this big Churchwell
business. Mr. A. F. Churchwell be-
For *ev?ral years past the Messrs ! Kan business in Abbeville In 1897
Churchwell have been Jointly Interest- j with a capital ot only 8250. By care-
in several of these Churchwell ful management and hard work, the
stores, but Mr. A. F. Churchwell was
the proprietor of the Albany
store and Mr. NJ. H. Churchwell was
the sole owner of the Cordele store.
As the business of all the stores
grew and developed it was found that
a complete merging of the large la>
forests of the two brothers was de
sirable. The details of the partner
ship were worked out during Ithe
Tall and the partnership *<$■ W.;un
or January first. The first announce
ment of the details are Just now
being made.
This chain of Churchwell stores,
becked by a big wholesale butdnesa
In Cordele, Is one of the finest tvf-
•knees of the success that will crown
judicious management and bard
work to business. The combined re
tail business of these als atorea am*
continuous advertising, he made his
business s success fro mtbe very day
hr opened hit doors. In three years
he felt that he could improve hit
prospects by going to a larger field.
After looking around he picked Al
bany out as a cotnng town and set
tled here in 1900, opening his store
on Broad street on February 7, 1900.
Mr. Churchwell had not been In bus
iness two weeks before customers
were flocking to hi* store, where they
found that hit business slogan,
“Churchwell Sells It For Less*** was
more than and advertising catch line.
The success which began In Abbe
ville continued In larger measure In
Albany, and ta a tew years' Mr.
Churchwell moved hie business into

where he now operates one of the
Chicago, March 13.—’Thrown from
one train and struck by another
which severed his left leg and arm,
Kdward Wolf, 17 years old, last night
made the inatant choice of death ns
the alternative to life as a hopeless
cripple. Fighting off the faintness in
duced by bin Injuries, he managed to
reach into his pocket with hi* remain
tig band, draw a revolver and put a
mullet through his brain.
The bullet which made a suicide
of Wolf almost claimed a second life,
for It pussed completely through the
head of the self-slain boy and* hit
hit; traveling companion, William
Haines, IS years old. Haines was
■truck In the neck and physicians wh#
removed the bullet found that It had
just grazed the juular vein.
Wolf and Haines ran away from
home in New York City a month or
more ago. They were consumed with
an ambition to see the west, and trav
eled on freight and passenger trains
as far as Denver. Then they became
homesick and turned back.
At nighty-second street and 'the
Illinois Central Railroad tracks, Wolf
attempted to hoard a freight train
when he fell with his left arm and
left leg across the next track. A
train came along and crushed the
arm and leg that lay across the rail.
Haines, weeping, dragged Wolf from
the track and attempted to aid him.
“Don't cry Bill,*' Wolf said. “My
agony will soon be over. My arm
and leg are both gone, I guess, but
this will fik mo all right.”
Before Haines realized that “this”
was Wolfs revolver, the wounded
boy had placed the weapon to hit
head and fired. The bullet went
through Wolfs head and struck
Haines in the neck Haines is not
seriously wounded.
