BIG COTTON MILL. The Clark Thread Company May Move Their Plant From New Jersey to Gwinnett County. The Clark Thread Co., of New Jersey, may move their extensive manufacturing plant from that state to Gwinnett county. Duriug the past week agents of that company have been at Bu ford looking up the advantages of that thriving little city as the point for locating their mills. Options on Barker shoals on the Chattahoochee River have been taken by the company, and the plan is to harness the river and convey the power by electric cur rent to the mills. At the lowest stage of the river, the shoals will afford 1,000 horse power, while by constructing a 10-foot dam 15,000 horse power can be developed. It is said that the represeuta tive of the Clark Co. is highly pleased with the water power, aud will recommend the removal of the mills from New Jersey to or near Buford. One plan is to establish a man ufacturing town at Sugar Hill, 2$ miles this side of Buford, where a body of about 400 acres of com paratively level land is available for the purpose, and to connect Buford with the same by electric road. The plan embraces the building of tho electric road from Buford to Cunnning, also to Law reuceville. Some of Buford’s enterprising citizens are interested in the pro ject, and while nothing definite has yet been done, great enterprises may evolve from negotiations now j in progress. The mills will give employment I to 1000 hands, and, if they are 3o- I cated here, will mean much for j Gwinnett. Miss Georgia Kuauf, after a pleasant visit to her parents, left Monday on her return to lowa, where she holds a position as teacher in the public schools of that state. M. E. Ewing and son, Jonah, came near meeting with a serious accident Monday morning. They had started out in a buggy to look at a farm in the country, and in going down a steep hill the breech ing broke and the mule ran away. Both were thrown out, receiving slight bruises, but nothing serious. The Lawrenceville News-Herald gives some interesting extracts in its last issue from the tax books of Gwinnett. The News-Herald is always on the lookout for inter esting matter to place in its col umns and hence is fully up with the procession in newspaperdom. —Walton News. Thanks, Bro. Upshaw, for this compliment. Guess you can keep Loganville ir. Walton, now. NOTICE. Teachers must make their book returns to this office at once, as the time is up for me to make a consolidated report to the state. W. T. Tanner, C. S. C. Death of Mr. D. P. Williams. This community was shocked last Friday by the announcement of the sudden death of Mr. D. P. Williams, one of the oldest aud most highly esteemed citizens of Lawrenceville district. Mr. Williams had been ailing for some time, but on the fateful morning had attended to his ac customed duties about the house, little aware that death was nigh. Just as he had finished his break fast and was seated on the front veranda, death came to him sud denly and without a moment’s warning. He fell to the floor, ut tering a cry of pain, and when his sou Fred reached him he gasped for breath aud expired. Heart trouble is supposed to have been the immediate cause of death. Some two mouths ago Mr. Wil liams had a stroke of paralysis,and from that he had not fully recov ered. Deceased was about 65 years of age, and was a native of Gwinnett county. He leaves four sons to mourn his loss—T. L. Williams, C. C. Williams, Fred Williams and John Williams. The interment took place Saturday morning in the new cemetery, at this place, Revs. J. W. Pogue and H. A. Hodges con ducting the funeral exercises at the grave. Did John Ewing Take His Own Life. Or Was He Murdered ? Late Saturday afternoou John H. Ewing was found dead by his wife on his bed at his borne in the upper part of Walton county. Ewing and his wife had spent the day at a celearation near their home, aud he had preceded her in returning for some time. His wife’s statement to tho Cor oner’s jurv was that she entered the ht use and found him lying up on his face, and discovered that he had been shot. His gun was found leaning against the bed railing discharged. He was evidently sitting on the side of the bed. as one foot was found resting on the floor. Seem ingly the blow turned him suf ficiently for him to fall on his face, grasping his nose, where the load of shot entered. It is the presumption of some that the murderer took the gun from the rack and fired it, stand ing near the door, as the bed was directly opposite the door. In support of the murder theory, several shot were noticed to have passed his face, and if he had have used the gun the range would have been too close to scatter. Ewing is reported to have been of a drinking disposition, aud had ■ trouble in his family Several say that he had consid lerable money on his person at j Winder Friday night, and possibly j he was murdered for his money. Edwards- Meadow. Married, in the city of Athens, Wednesday, at 1:20 o’clock, Mr. H E. Edwards tp Mre. Bessie Meadow. The groom is the popular agent of the S. A. L. at this place, while ! the bride is a most amiable and i accomplished young lady of the Classic City. ( The happy couple arrived here i Wednesday on the afternoou train and are stopping temporarily at 1 the Ambrose House. In a week or two Mr. Edwards will go to housekeeping, having leased the Suggs house, near the depot. We join in congratulations to tho happy couple, wishing them all manner of happiness iu their wedded life. Frstwsll At rested. J. A. Fretwell of Buford was ar rested in Oklahoma Territory last week on warrants issued from Jackson county which charged him with having sold territory and taken notes which did not specify their consideration in the face of the note. Mr, Fretwell is a well known patent-right man, who makes his money out of patents by selling “blue sky.” In December 1897 a law was passed which made it a criminal offense to take a note rs this character without stating the consideration in the face of the note. About a month later, and before a great many knew that such a law had been passed, Mr. Fretwell, or some one for him, took these notes iu the old formal way. The good people of Jackson county are victims, and as a result there are several true bills against Mr. Fretwell. The prisoner was arrested iu Oklahoma just as he was selling one hold of a territory for a livery stable valued at $2,500. He reached Gainesville in charge of an Oklahoma officer last Satur day and was carried to Jefferson. It cost something over S2OO to bring him back for trial, and as could not give bond he was lodged in jail to await trial this week. It, is said that he missed making a $2,500 deal by reason of having been arrested and that he wili make it warm for his prosecutors. It is rumored that a heavy dam age suit will follow his trial. It is also claimed that if he has vio lated the law iu question that it is unconstitutional and void. Let this be as it may, the case will be watched with a considerable de gree of interest. This is a law that materially affects commercial paper and the outcome is more than important.—Gainesville Ea gle. Paper For Farmers. A paper for farmers is what the Twice-a-Week Macon Telegraph proposes to be. The daily Tele graph has proven itself an earnest friend of agriculture, and its spe cial issue will be more direct on that line. The Twice-a-Week Tel egraph will be sent to any address one year for $1 00. Has Not Resigned. Demorest, Ga., Aug., 13, 1899. Editor News-Herald: Please aid me in denying the report that I have resigned the presidency of J. S. Green College. I have had no such thought, and the report is altogether false. C. C. Spence. To the Teaohcrs: As I have been unable to secure the “two prominent educators” to carry out the program as arranged for our meeting at Level Creek, I have, after consulting some of the teachers, decided it best to post pone the meeting, as we could ac complish nothing by meeting with out a program. Wade H. Maxwell, Pres’t. G. C. T. A. DeKalh’s Big Melon. From all accounts, the melon growers this year think a speci men less than a hundred pounds is hardly worth pulling. Sheriff Austin of DeKalb couuty says that while the papers are report ing the production of big melous first iu one section of the state and then iu another, he wants it understood that his county desires to share in Georgia’s reputation as a melon growing state, aud, iu support of this claim, he says that a farmer iu DeKalb county pulled last year the largest melon ever grown in Georgia. The melon was not pulled until fully ripe, aud when ready for the knife was brought into Decater aud eaten. The specimen was not dissected in the usual way,as the grower want ed to illustrate the real size of it in a new way, original to himself. Securing a hand-saw he cut off both ends of the, melon, and then tunneling out the contents with a spade, the grower crawled through his product with the same ease he would go through a flour barrel, being received with cheers as he came out of the opening All of this, he says, occurred in DeKalb county and no other section of the state furnished any part of the program. The farmer who grew the melon was a DeKalb country man, the melon was raised aud eaten in that county, and that the two or three score of people that the mammoth produc tion fed were all residents of that couuty.—Macon Telegraph.

Bum, Cl’k Bd Co Louis. ; WAS IT MURDER ? Strong Circumstances Show That the Skeleton Found Near Braden Was That of a Murdered Man. Tucker, Ga., August 18.—The skeleton found in a swamp on the plantation of J. L. Brand, three miles from here, is supposed to be j the remains of Harry A. Maston, j of Macon. A stranger came to this place on February 11th of this year, during the blizzard, and gave his name as | Harrj’ A. Maston. He stated that | he was master machinist in a rail road shop in Macon and had a difficulty with a man on January 28th and shot him ; that he board ed a traiu that night, went to Sa vannah, then to Charleston, then to Augusta, and from there came to Stone Mouutain, where he got off the train and walked across the country to Tucker. While here he stopped with Mr. Chew ning, to whom he related the above story. The stranger was drinking heav ily. On February 14th he left Mr. Chewning’s house, stating that he was going to Danville, Va., to visit an old college mate, and that he would write Mr Chewuing when he arrived'ut Dan ville. No letter came. Maston, as he called himsGl', was about forty-five or fifty years of age; about five feet ten inches in height and weighed about one hundred and sixty pounds; had light hair, a little gray; fair skin, blue or gray eyes, very prominent cheek bones and had a moustache. He was well dressed. Articles found near the skeleton prove beyond doubt that the bones were the remains of the stranger. Sixty-five cents iu silver was also found. Near the bones was a pis tol, and carved on the stock of it was the name “John Dickerson.” Who the stranger was no one knows. The name on the pistol and the name given by the man do not agree, and cause the people to doubt the story told by him. The remains were buried bv the citizens at Harmony Grove church, in Gwinnett couuty. In addition to the above facts, which was clipped from the Con stitution of last Saturday, other circumstances have come to light which indicate that Maston was muidered The stranger was seen the day he left Chewning’s house, so it is stated, in the company of a ne gro who is reported to be a “blind tiger,” walking along the railroad near the canebrake where the skel eton was found. The stranger had a large roll of greenbacks on his person when he left Chewning’s house, and the fact that no money except 65 cents in silver was found with the skeleton is regarded as suspicious. The shoes worn by Maston and the pistol he had with him have been identified as those found with the skeleton. The negro under suspicion as having killed the straoger has been spending money freely of late, without any visible means of acquiring it honestly. These circumstances clearly in dicate that tbe man was foully murdered aud robbed, and if they are true, the officers whose duty it is to ferret out the murderer should place this negro under arrest md let the next grand jury thoroughly investigate the matter. WILL LUCAS CONVICTED, Murderer of Robert F. Davis Sets a Life Sentence. Atlanta, Aug. 19. —Will Lucas was found guilty in the superior court of DeKalb county of the crime of murder with a recommen dation of mercy, and immediately upon the verdict being rendered Judge Candler sentenced Lucas to the peniteutiary for life. The crime for which he was convicted was the killing of Robert F. Da vis, a prominent citizen of De- Kalb county, The murder was committed on the morning of March 12 last, just before daylight. Mr. Davis was awakened from sleep by hearing some one on the front porch of his house, aud while endeavoring to ascertain who was there was fired upon and killed. The evidence was to a large extent circumstantial. The trial of the case was commenced yesterday and concluded at 8:30 this afternoon, at which hour the verdict was returned. SUWANEE Special to THE NEWS. Protracted meeting commenced at the Baptist church Sunday and will be continued through the week. The pastor is being assisted by Revs. T. T. Twitty and J. H. Fields. A large number of our young people attended the Lawrenceville campmeeting Sunday. N. T. Anderson, of Atlanta, spent Sunday here, the guest of friends and relatives. Miss Clio LaHatte, of Atlanta, has been the guest of friends the past few days. She returned home Tuesday morning. Col. B. F. Abbott, was the guest of Col. Alex. W. Smith Suuday at Shallow Brook. The political pot continues to simmer in this neck of the woods, and now comes Morgan S. Brown, who says he will be m the race for sheriff, and will have Hiram Whit worth associated with him as dep uty. Morg. says he and Hiram are the most popular men in the couuty today, and their election is already assured. Their an nouncement will appear in The News-Herald soon, and their many friendß are requested to tak6 due notice. Sketch of One :f Lawrenceville’s Sons i While the Athens train was wait | ing the other day to exchange her passengers a man stepped from one of the coaches, and for a min ute or two closely scanned the part of the city as seen from the Sea board depot. His eyes seemed to be searching for some familiar spot; and so they were, but the hills and green trees stood between him and the object of his glance, and he turned once more into the train with some disappointment. This man was Lieutenant Basil Lenoir of the United States Signal Service, who was then on his way to spend a few days with his moth er in Oconee county before sailing under special orders for the Phil ippines. Lieutenant Lenoir was born for ty years ago in the house now oc cupied by the Honorable Judge of our City Court, Judge Sam J. Winn. His mother, after the death of his father, married a Col. Evans, but is now a Mrs. Middle brooks, of Farmington, Oconee county. A few of the older citi zens remember her well. She was a special friend of the family of Mr. G. W. Ambrose. The Lieutenant is a remarkable mau in many ways; perhaps es pecially in the wonderful success he has achieved in his chosen pro fession. By hard study and prac tical sense ho has gained the ap proval of the War Department, aud has filled many difficult and dangerous appointments. He is just back from duty in Porto Rico, where he filled a Major’s place in superintending the erection of a long line of government telegraph. In his line of service he has trav eled in nearly every country iu the world, and has sailed into every port where the American flag can enter. Lieutenant Lenoir is a type of healthy Americanism, which knows no failure and shirks no task. He successfully passed once a very difficult competitive exami nation over the head of President Garfield’s son, aud several other young men, the sous of men of na tional fame. Socially, he is somewhat reserv ed, and except to his immediate family, says very little about his life. He is a widower with two very beautiful little daughters,one of whom is now in Montana. He is now in mid ocean, sailing to take the place of a Captain who was killed by the natives of the Philippines. What a pity he could not have gtayed iu town long enough to have become more familiar with his native place 1 How he would have enjoyed standing once more on the grounds his feet first pressed and viewing the scenes of child hood days. But duty called him on, perhaps to death for his coun try, and to add his name to the roster of heroes who have gone out from Lawrenceville to return no more. Let me add : By careful invest ment of his money he has amassed a snug fortune, estimated at two hundred thousand dollars. He owns several lots in the heart of Helena, Montana, which are worth from seventy-five to one hundred thousand dollars. The life of this inau should be an incentive to every boy in Gwin nett county to secure an education at any cost, to push forward for better things, to aim high and struggle on persistently. Lieutenant Lenoir might have been satisfied with twenty-five dol lars a month, but he has patiently worked up to a position which pays him two hundred and twen ty-five dollars a month, aside from his clothing, doctor bills, travel ing expenses and many other extras This but shows what grit and application can do. Rev. L. T. Reed, Pastor First Baptist Church, Law renceville, Ga. BY order of the court of Ordinary of Gwin nett county, will be sold before the court house door, in the town of Lawrenceville, Ga., on the first Tuesday in .September, next, the following described property, to-wit: One 12- horse power Erie engine: one saw-mill and fixtures. 48-inch saw, with carriage and run ners, 65 feet 8-inch belting; one corn mill, 48- inch rocks, one set of crane; one 40-saw Pratt gin, with feeder and condenser of Vanwinkle make, 30 feet of 5-inch belting; one 35-saw gin, Van Winkle make, with feeder and condenser 80 feet 5-inch belting, und one Brooks press, levied on as the property of tne defendant, J.

Protracted meeting dosed at the Baptist church last Thursday, with 18 accessions—2 by letter and 16 by baptism. It was by far the best meeting ever held at Snellville. The celebration passed off quiet ly with an extra large crowd and good behavior. Among the most prominent vis itors during the W6ek and at the celebrntion were: Asa G. Candler of Atlanta, A. M. Baxter of Su wanee, Mr. Lige Anderson and wife and daughter of near Litho uia, Misses Lelah Hopkins aud Lelah Henderson of Norcross, Uncle Wash Weems of Clarkston, Miss Watson of Loganville, Misses Ruby and Daisy McKinney, Floy Carroll, Sallie McDaniel and oth ers of Luxonmi, James and John McDaniel and sister of Braden, John Garner aud wife of Possum Corner, F. M. Moore and lady of Centreville, together with Mrs. Gid Hannah and Miss Della Han nah and others Trip was well represented aud a few from Law renceville. I cannot recall all at present, therefore no one need feel slighted. The singing school, after being in session 20 days, closed last Thursday. A A. Grizzard took iu the fam ily reunion in Atlanta Sunday. The Second Georgia Baptist As sociation will he held with Suell ville church, commencing on Fri duy before the 3rd Sunday in September. During the protracted meeting some furniture dealer appropriated two chairs belonging to Elias Crow and one belonging to R. L. Shell. This way of taking little things at public gatherings, such as chairs, buggy whips, lap robes, etc., should be stopped. Silas Gresham is taking pictures of any and everything aud every where. B. H. Moore returned to Macon last Sunday. Our ville was very well repre sented at campmeeting last Sun day. BUFORD. Special to THE NEWS. Will Mehaffey is very low with typhoid fever. Guy Prater, who has been quite sick for some time, is improving. Attorney Latner, of Cumming, was in Buford Saturday on legal business. Marion Hamilton, of Augusta, is on a visit to friends and rela tives in and near Buford. We are glad to report that Wilse Martin is recovering from a spell of fever of several weeks duration. Pattillo Bros, have just added another building to their plant, which gives them room to double their working capacity. A great many Bufordites at tended protracted meeting last week at Sugar Hill. The meeting closed Sunday, and resulted in the addition of eight members by bap tism. Prof. Wright and family moved to Buford last week. He has been teaching at Dawson, Ga., and comes here to take charge of the Buford school. He comes highly recommended as an educator. A large crowd utteuded Luw renceville campmeeting Sunday from our city, und it is reported by some who returned late Sun day night that there was seme very ungeutlemauly behavior along the road from the camp ground to Buford. Such conduct as that mentioned above is caused directly by the promiscuous sale of liquor through out the county, and especially iu Buford. We truly hope our next grand jury will do its whole duty on the liquor question in Buford. Our town authorities seem to be totally incompetent to cope with this greatest of all evils. It is gratifying to r the people of Buford and Sugar Hill district to see from figures published iu last week’s News-Herald that Sugar Hill has the largest individual tax payer iu the county. It is also gratifying to see that Sugar Hill returns 66 more polls than any other district iu the county. We also iearu from the same table of figures that the four districts along the Southern ruilruad re turn one-third the taxable prop erty of the county. OABTORIA.
