ONE PERSON KILLED, 12 INJURED
IN SOUTHERN RAILWAY
COLLISION
STATE NEWSJF INTEREST
Brief News Items Gathered From
All Sections Of
The State.
Tallapoosa.—One person was killed
and twelve injured when Southern
railway passenger train No. 30, Bir
mingham special, due at the Brook-
wood station at Atlanta, at 3:15 p. m.,
collided head-on with work train No.
291 of the Southern system, near Tal
lapoosa.
The one fatality was in the case of
H. Hogan, a laborer of Edwardsville,
Ala. The injured are W. F. Austeth
of Piedmont, Ala., and a negro named
Smlu Richardson of Philadelphia, Pa.,
both of whom were passengers; H. L.
Cox, trainmaster of Birmingham; W.
E. Harden, fireman. Birmingham; Jes
se York, white, railroad laborer, Mus
cadine, Ala.; J. T. Walton, flagman,
Atlanta; O. T. Ward, laborer, Edwards-
ville, Ala,; K. L. Kilgore, laborer, Mus
cadine, Ala.; A. E. Shaw, laborer, Aus
tell. Ga.; L. J. Cain, baggage master,
Atlanta, and W. A. Spinks, engineer,
Atlanta.
According to official statement by
the Southern railroad, the wreck oc
curred when the passenger train, east-
hound, crashed into the work train,
which was westbound, and which had
a car containing the work crew ahead
of the engine.
The crash occurred one mile east
of Tallapoosa at West’s Crossing as
the flyer swung around a curve aud
plunged into the tail end of the work
train, which was moving into Talla
poosa. The members of the work crew
were able to jump before their cars
were telescoped, with the exception
\ Hogan, whose death resulted instant*
iy. The other three workmen were in
jured in jumping from the train.
All of the passengers of No. 30
are said to have been shaken and
thrown from their seats when the
two trains went together.
A group of Georgia Tech students
and athletes, including Judy Harlan,
George Griffith, Ivlass, Cotton and
Granger, were on the limited, but es
caped being injured.
No. 30 was In charge of Engineer
W. A. Spinks of 73 Jones avenue, At
lanta, and Conductor Baxter, also of
Atlanta. The latter was hurt.
Road Material Famine Serious
Atlanta.—Inability to secure cement
and other necessary road-building ma-
teiiurat any price Is seriously ham-'
perlng the projects which the -state
now has under construction. Dr. C.
N. Strahan, chairman of the highway
commission, has reported this. Doctor
Strahan says that the board is ar
ranging to get cement in small quan-
tiittes by taking a few barrels each
from several manufacturers, but that
the makers are so jammed with orders
that they are able to command their
own prices and it seems likely that
this material will soon he off the mar
ket at any price. The highway com
mission has bids out for a million gal
lons of asphalt to he used in road
surfacing, but this material also is get
ting so scarce that there is a grave
possibility of its early withdrawal from
the market entirely. Besides the
scarcity of material the commission Is
also greatly bumpered by the scarcity
of cars to haul it, and the uncertainty
of transportation, after the material
has been contracted for, adds greatly
to the dificulties encountered in
continuation of road work.
Dorsey Denies Slayer Irwin Clemency
Atlanta.—The petition for clemency
for Rush Irwin, who was convicted of
slaying J. G. Moody and sentenced to
serve one year at the prison farm byj
a jury In the criminal division of the
Fulton superior court last November,
was denied by Gov. Hugh M. Dorsey
in a formal order. Since the convict
tion of Irwin last fall repeated efforts
have been made by members of the
man’s family to have the sentence
shortened and Irwin freed. The state
prison commission twice has refused
to recommend that the governor act
favorably on the clemency petition
and several attempts have been made
to have the governor act. The last
attempt of Irwin’s family, friends and
counsel resulted in the order signed
by Governor Dorsey declining to
grant the clemency petition. The gov
ernor says the prison board declined
to recommend clemency, and he had
been through the papers submitted
very carefully and could not see his
way clear to grant clemency.
Expecting Son’s Body, Finds Stranger
Douglas.—Some day ago William M.
Smith of Douglas received a telegram
from Adjutant General Harris at
Washington advising that his son,
Private James M. Smith, Company D,
Fifty-third Telegraphic battalion, sig
nal corps, had died in a department
hospital at Manilla, P. I„ April 15.
1920, Mr. Smith immediately wired
W. C. Lankford and Adjutant General
Harris to have the body of his son
shipped to Douglas. The supposed
body of his son came in by express,
marked Janies Smith, and when his
father came to receive it the body
was taken to G. L. Sims’ undertaking
parlors, the seals broken and the body
examined. Mr. Smith’s son was only
19 years old was clean shaven and
left here only the first of this year.
The body in the casket was a larger
man, apparently 45 or 50 years old,
und with n heavy red moustache,
showing that the wrong body was
shipped here.
Convention A Day Atlanta’s Record
Atlanta. — Thirty-one conventions,
with an aggregate attendance of 5,00
people, were entertained in Atlanta

months in the history of the "Pinna
cle City.”. It was not a month of
large conventions, but a month filled
with a constant round of small con
ventions, representing many und di
vers lines of business. The largest in
attendance was the American Nurses’
Association, meeting here April 12-17,
with a total attendance of 3,000;
Doctor Takes Coin From Man’s Lung
Macon.—Old and battered coins en
gaged the attention of the Georgia
Medical society when Dr. Guy D. Ayer,
an Atlanta practitioner, read a paper
explaining how he and his associates
have removed from the oesophagus
and bronlchal tubes foreign substances
which for one reason and another
were lodged in these vital parts. By
way of illustrating his paper, Dr. Ayer
exhibited to the assembled medicos
a German coin which lie had extract
ed from the lung of a returned soldier.
The veteran swallowed the coin in a
fit of excitement and it lodged in his
lung, and there defied the most expe:
medical talent In Europe until Ills re.
turn to America.

For more than Forty Years
Cotton Growers have known that
KAINIT
More than 11,651,200 Tons of Potash Salts
had been imported and used in the United
States in the 20 years previous to January,
1915, when shipments ceased. Of this
6,460,700 Tons consisted of
which the cotton grower knew was both a
plant food and a preventive of blight and
rust,—with it came also 1,312,400 Tons of
20 per cent
MANURE SALT
which has the same effects on Cotton, but which
was used mainly in mixed fertilizers.
Shipments of both Kainit and Manure Salt have
been resumed but the shortage of coal and cars and
high freight rates make it more desirable to ship
Manure Salt, which contains 20 per cent of actual
Potash, instead of Kainit, which contains less than
13 per cent actual Potash.
MANURE SALT can be used as a side dressing
on Cotton in just the same way as Kainit and wifi
give the same results. Where you used 100 pounds
of Kainit, you need to use but 62 pounds of Manure
Salt, or 100 pounds of Manure Salt go as far as 161
pounds of Kainit.
MANURE SALT has been coming forward in
considerable amounts and cotton growers, who can
not secure Kainit^ should make an effort to get
Manure Salt for side dressing to aid in making a
big Cotton Crop.
Muriate of Potash
50 per cent actual Potash, has been coming forward
also,—100 pounds of Muriate are equivalent to 400
pounds of Kainit or 250 pounds of Manure Salt
These are the three
Standard GERMAN Potash Salts
that were always used in making cotton fertilizers
and have been used for all these years with great
profit and without any damage to the crop.
The supply is not at present as large as in former
years, but there is enough to greatly increase the
Cotton Crop if you insist on your dealer making
the necessary effort to get it for you.
