William Gibbs JJcAdoo, who showed he was still yery much in ‘•he race for the Democratic presi dential nomination. Ay % an over whelming defeat of Swiator Under wood in the Geor#i*j preferential Jiimgry. Washington.—No matter to what his opponents attribute the causes, the sweeping victory'-, of William Gibbs McAdoo over Senator Oscar Underwobd in the Georgia primaries has greatly revived hopes of his sup porters and added a perceptable im petus to his campaign;for the Demo cratic Presidential nomnaton. Until mentioned in eonection with the oil investigation, it was freely admitted by all of the party that the candidate who, beat the for mer Secretary of Treasury would unquestionably receive the nomina tion. This sentiment was pronounced even among his avowed enemies, at the meeting of the Democratic Na tional Committeemen here in Janu ary, and while there were those who openly boasted he would never mus ter the necessary two-thirds majori ty, the candidate himself and all of his associates seemed sublimely con fident of ultimate success. Then came announcement hy E. L. Doheny that Mr. McAdoo w «* one of his counsel, the, hutried trip of the canddate to Washington to dis claim any knpwlsdge of the alleged oil irregularities, liis .severing of con nections with Defeeny and the hur ried gathering of all McAileo leaders at Chicago, where a “clean bill of health” was given, the candidate and he was importuned to continue in the race. While in no way curtailing their campaign plans, from the time of Mr. McAdoo’s appearance before the Senate Committee until the re sults of the Georgia primaries were announced, the candidate and his managers “rested on their oars’ as were, but now that they feel a thor ough vindication has been attained a spirited fight in all sections of the country may be looked for from now until the conventioh in June. Many McAdoo admirers, especial ly in the South, feel that the death of President Wilson, his father-in law, has helped his candidacy im measurably, and in all recent speech es the candidate himself has referred to the dead executive at every avail able opportunity. HEIRLESS ESTATE WILL GO TO CHATHAM COUNTY Savvannah, —A search for heirs having proven unsuccessful after months of efforts, arrangements are being made to escheat the estate of Mrs. Adelaide B. Chaplin, who died several years ago. Under the law the estate, which consists of $9,129.- 17 cash, will go to the school fund of Chatham county. Judge Alex R. Mac Donnell, who was appointed as administrator by the ordinary in 1919, presented an order to Judge Meldrim in the superi or court for signature as- the first step necessary for the escheatment proceedings. It is the first case of its kind in Chatham in many years. GO WEST, YOUNG MAN! AND JUST TAKE A ROPE IN PLACE OF A MOTOR Los Angles, Cal.—Half way across the continent, from Fort Scott, Kansas, to Los Angles, in an auto without an engine—that’s the unique record of Alex Packakrd. Packard wanted to come west but the worst way. Jle bad- a 1907 Ford, but the motor was missing. He brought a stout tow line and shoved his flivver out into the. road. A passing motorist kindly ordered to tow him to the first garage. Reach ing a repair shop, .Packard thanked his benefactor, unhooked the rope— .and shoved the Ford down' the road a ways, past the garage. Another tourist came along, towed him to the next shop—and so on, to Los Angeles. “Wonderful scenery, fine trip and not a bit of engine trouble,” Pack ard reported. OFFICER DIES FROM WOUND: SLAYER RIDDLED Atlanta, Ga.—Albert S. Wells, chief of police of Woodbury, Ga. died early Friday morning at l)avis- Fischer sanitorium from a bullet wound inflicted Thursday afternoon by a negro boy named “Bootsy” Thrash, whom he had caught lifling a cash drawer in the Poope’s Bank, of Woodbury. Mr. Wells was brought to the hos pital late Thursday and surgeons immediately operated to remove the bullet from his head ,but his condi tion was desperate, and he lapsed into unconsciousness, and death re sulted soon after daybreak. Chief Wells was shot with his own pistol. Officers of the bank for some days had been missing small sums of money from cash drawers and suspicion fell on the negro, Thrash, who did odd jobs about the bank. Thursday noon the chief secreted himslef in the bank when the place closed while the employes were out at lunch. He said he saw Thrash enter by a rear door, using a pass key, and him while he took money from a cash drawer. The chief then arrested the boy and said he was preparing to take him to jail when he put down his pistol to answer the telephone. The negro snatched the wepon and fired at the officer, the bullete entering his head. Citizens, hearing the shot, sur rounded the bank and captured Thrash, placing him in the local jail, but when Sheriff J. P. Jarrell arrived from Greenville soon after, the jail door had been forced open and the negro was missing. His bullet-rid dled body was found afterward on the outskirts of Woodbury. Sheriff Jarrell on Friday was reported in dispatches from Woodbury as con. ducting an investigation. Mr. Well’s body was taken to Woodbury Friday afternoon for fu neral and interment. *, OZORA.

Dr. Soule launched at once into the discussion of agricultural 'and rural problems, treating it from different angles. He told of what the agricul tural college is doing for the young men and women of Georgia, 12,000 having gone through the institution as evangels, with a present enrollment of 2,0C0. He said 10,000 should be there. The college was started seventeen years ago and in all that length of time only one pupil has been asked to leave. This is a remarkable record. Dr. Soule spoke for one hour and a half and held his hearers throughout, frequenly punctuating his remarks with appropriate anecdotes. He spoke on the program outlined for Gwinnett county, and when he would strike such items as dairying, chickens, hogs, legumes, he would tell what Georgia produced under each head and what was imported, telling us that we had sold our birthright for a mess of pottage, at least in par:. He spoke of lha vast potentialities of the state and the need d# education to develop our resources. Ry devel oping our agricultural interests the industrial end will largely take care of itself. He believed in better roads, better schools and more manufac tories, but these cannot flourish un less the soil is made to produce the feed and raw material needed to fos ter such enterprises. Dr. Soule said he was glad of the opportunity to serve his fellow man and his chief joy was in the knowl edge that he was helping the yeusg,. on whom the future depends, to carry forward this stupendous task. Mr. J. W. Morton, of Athens, spoke briefly on tne co-operative marketing plan, and Mr. J. O.
