The following clipping will hoof
interest to Fitzgeraldites, as it was
thesteamship City of Montgomery,
on which Mr. and Mrs. G. M.
Mumford sailed last week for their
summer home in Massachusetts,
The ship had delivered its cargo
of cotton and was returning to the
northern port.
“The New York Times says that
for the first time in the memory of
steamship freightmen a strange re¬
versal of ordinary conditions has
come about— cotton being shipped
from North to the South. The new
Savannah liner. City of Montgom¬
ery, which sailed yesterday for Sa¬
vannah, took out 5,000 bales of
cotton destined for mills in the cot-
ton belt. The cotton shipped back
over the route it arrived by some
months ago was pu rehased abroad.
Speculation^ said to have had some¬
thing to do with the conditions, but
according to James C. Horton,
passenger traffic manager of the
Savannah line, the shipment was
wanted to fill orders, as the mills
in the South are short of the raw
material. Se timentai business
men o ♦T ontgomery have supplied
he rest of the new vessel’s
u lionor ol tl.o fact that the
v r nih liner has named its latest
vessel alter their city, the business
men of Montgomery determined
that she should go out on her first
voyage*with her hole filled.”
Good Vaudeville Bill
At £ amity 1 Recxtre
The Family Theatre is present¬
ing this week, Miss Marie Dame,
singing and dancing soubrette
and a skillful contortionist.
Danie, being quite small of stature,
makes up very cunningly as
child, and her rendition of some
of the latest songs this week lias
been an enjoyable feature of the
act. Her contortionist act, how¬
ever, has won for her more ap¬
plause than any other, and the re¬
markable manner in which she
twists her body is indeed astound¬
ing.
Besides Miss Danie, is the mys¬
terious Freeman, who each night
gives demonstrations in mentel
telepathy. His part of the per¬
formance is interesting and bath¬
ing in every sense.
The bill this week is extraordi¬
narily good, which accounts for
the large crowds who have at¬
tended each show.

Severe Storm In
Smith County, Tex.
Tyler, Texas, .June, 12.— The
most severe and damaging storm in
the history of Smith county struck
here yesterday between 7 and 8
o’clock, causing heavy property
damage and a number of persona!
injuries, though no deaths have re¬
sulted.
The hurricane struck first at a
point on the Green briar road, about
five miles west of Tyler, coming
toward the town until it reached a
point two,'miles out. when it turned
southeast and circled southwest and
south of Tyler. Practically all
buidings, fences, trees, etc., in the
path of the storm were torn up and
scattered by the winds, leaving the
damaged area as though it had been
dragged.
The fierce wind was preceded by
a t» rr fic electric storm.
The Redmond farm house five
miles west of Tyler, was almost
entirely demolished, but two rooms
being left standing, while the fur¬
niture was wrecked and scattered
broadcast. A young son of Red¬
mond was seriously injured by fly¬
ing timbers.
The Denton farm house was
blown from its foundations. The
Fairview farm house was destroyed
and Mr. and Mrs. B. G. Beckman,
who occupied the building, escaped
by leaving it just before the cyclone
struck.
The house, outhouses, farm u-
tensils and fences of a Mrs. Star
were demolshed. Mrs. Jamieson,
the former’s daughter,and two boys
were seriously hurt, one of them
probably fatally.
The Brewster farm house was
practically destroyed.
One of the buildings of the East
Texas Academy was blown down,
hca y oss -
At baker s dairy the roof was
torn oil' and every occupant of the
building was injured, one child be¬
ing fatally hurt.
Richard Donaldson’s house was
blown to pieces and Donaldson was
painfully injured -
Bate’s orchard suffered heavily
at the hands of the storm and two
houses were demolished.
Among the other houses de-
Uroyed were tiiose belonging to J.
W. Taylor, J. M. Knight, C. C.
. 4 Jackson, C. O. Bu-
forth ac ! is0 “’ house ' the Wa'ter Con-
a on
nolly farm, Robert liamsour and
G. M, Alsop.
In several instances the houses
were blown completely away the
sites being swept as clean as a base
ball diamond.
Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Knight were
severely hurt by being struck bv
flying timbers.
Heavy damage was done to crops
and orchards, tire property damage
however, not having been estima-
as yet.
Family Cats Contract
T vberculosis
The Atlanta Anti-Tuberulosis
Association is now directing its at¬
tention to a very novel and unpre¬
cedented case, in which several
cats have become victims of
tuberculosis, having contracted
the disease from the tamily to
whom they belong.
The neighbors, who are con¬
siderably alarmed over the ravages
wrought by the disease in the
doomed family, were the first to
note the startling development in
the cats, and reported same to the
Anti-Tuberculosis Association. It
is said that the cats have become
thin and emaciated ana are subject
to fits of coughing, as well as
showing other unmistakable symp¬
toms of the dread disease.
The father of the family died of
Tuberculosis thirteen years ago,
leaving a widow and seven chil¬
dren, five of whom have since
suceumbed, and the mother said
now to be in the second stage and
the other two children also suffer¬
ing from it.
It is indeed that the cats strange
shouldcontract the disease from the
family and the Anti-Tuberculosis
Association are going to make a
cjose study of the case.
Whact I Did Not See
The writer has just returned
from a tour of several hundred
miles of farming country in Illi¬
nois and Wisconsin among some
of the riche t and most progres-
sive farmers in the world, I am
going to tell what I saw that ex¬
plains the almost unparalled pros¬
perity of these farmers, but pet
lntps a better explanation may be
found m what 1 did NOT sec.
For example, take this li-t:
No mules.
No cabins.
No gullies.
No old fields.
No forest fires.
No big plantations.
No one-horse plows.
No loafers at depots.
No sheep-killing dogs.
No small work horses.
No stumps in the field.
No commercial fertilizers.
No factory-slave children.
No farm homes unpainted.
No one-room school houses.
No farms without live stock.
No anaemic-looking children.
No land without cover crops.
No cows or mules with ribs
showing.
No burning of vegetable matter.
N o parasite store at every cross¬
roads.
No farms cut up into piddling
patches.
No surface-scratching miscalled
plowing.
No farm home without sanitary
conveniences.
No farmer “bossing” hands
without working himself.
And it might be said in conclu¬
sion, that there were no negroes
and consequently no white men
and women either waiting for
negroes to do work they might do
themselves, or abstaining from
what their bands found to do from
any absurd idea that it was “be¬
neath them.”—Clarence Poe, in
Raleigh(N. C ) Progressive Farmer
and Gazette.
Consolidated
Co. Building Store
Work on the new Consolidated
Grocery Company’s building is
progressing at a lively clip, and at
the present rate it will onh, be a
short time before the structure is
completed and ready for occiqan-
cy.
The new building, which
brick, is being erected at the
ner ot Ocmulgee avenue and North
Main street 011 the old A. B. & A.
depot site, and the foundation is
120 feet by 190.
Besides being a serviceable
building and a great improvement
over the one the Company now
occupies, it will also be quite an ad-
dition to that section of the city.
Telephone Girls
The telephone girl sits still in
her chair and listens to voices
from everywhere; she hears all the
gossip, she hears all the news,
she knows who is happy and who
has the blues; she knows all our
sorrows, she knows all our joys,
she knows every girl who is chas¬
ing the boys; she knows of strife,
she knows every man that is mean
to his wife; she knows every time
we are out with the boys, she
hears the excuses each fellow em-
ploys, she knows every man who’s
inclined to be fast.
If the telephone girl would tell
all she knows, it would turn half
our friends into bitterest foes;
would sow a small wind that would
soon he a gale, engulf our troubles
and land us in jail; she would let
go a story which, growing iu force,
would cause half our wives to sue
for divorce; she would get aii the
churches mixed up in a fight, and
turn our days into sorrowing
night; in fact she would keep all
the town in a stew, if she’d tell
the tenth part of the things she
knew: now, doesn't it make
head whirl, when you think what
you owe to the telephone girl f
Moral—Be good to the telephone
girl.—Lumpkin Independent.
