MULES AND MUD
ATTRACT CROWD
Entertainment fog several hundred
people standing on the Broad street
and Whitehall street viaduct* Friday
morning was furnished by the efforts
of a flock of teamsters to remove from
shin-deep mud a wagon of the Morrow
Transfer Company, which had stalled
In the railroad yards below.
For three hours the negroes labored.
G. H. Morrow', president of the compa
ny, was called and came upon the scene
to superintend, but his presence aided
little. The two mules hitched to, the
wagon gave up the Job after an Hour,
and two more were added, but with
small results, for each muJe seemed to
have his own time and method of do
ing things. Teams coming from the
depots were blocked up all the way-
back to the Forsyth street underpass.
The crowd standing high and dry
on the viaduct laughed at the men la
boring in the inud below. It was
queer, but no ono on the ground could
move the wagon, while there were a
hundred or more on the viaducts who
said they could do It In ten minutes,
easy.
“Why, when I was a boy,” asserted
a prosperous middle-aged man, “and
worked on a farm, I could get a wood
wagon out of a mud hole six feet deep.
I can go right down there now and get
that team out In Just three minutes."
“Twist that off mule's tall!” ven
tured a countryman. a
“Get a freight engine,” urged anoth
er member of tho crowd.
Just what those below were saying
could not be heard. Finally by lifting
the wagon and concerted action on the
part of the mules the vehicle rolled
away.

about 7 o’clock Thursday night. She
was 70 years of age.
Mrs. Davis had been In her usual
health during the day, and had taken
dinner with her daughter, Mrs. M. B.
Hutchins, and the attack which bore
her away was only of about fifteen
minutes’ duration.

Caroline Matilda Clarke, and she was
a native of Darien, Ga., where she was
married to Rev. Mr. Davis in 1856r
They celebrated their golden wedding
at the residence where shf/bas juft died

childreri, one of whom, Arthur, dle,d In
early childhood many years ago, and
another. Captain Austin Rockwell Da
vis, who was with the allied army In
Its march on Pekin, was killed at the
battle of Teln-tsln. Captain Davis

Pacific, and he participated In the
Spanlsh-Amerlcan war. His body was
burled at Arlington. The surviving

Atlanta prior to the war. He has oc~
cupied pastorates at Blackshear, Way-
cross, Mount Vernon and the Barnett
church, near Atlanta, and Mrs. Davis
has always been the shepherdess, os
he was the pastor, of his flock.
The affect(onata devotion between
Rev. Mr. Davis and his wife was par
ticularly touching. They were togeth
er at all times, and the shock to him
has been great. The funeral will take
place Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock,
from the Moore Memorial Presbyterian
church, of which he was a member.

RACING FOR OFFICE
IN RELIEF ASSO.
For J he first time In years the Police
Relief Association fa being given a taste
of politics.
The association Is now In the throes
of a campaign that would do credit to
a race for mayor. Although the cam
paign Is not ns extensive, embracing
only the members of the association,
still It Is being waged almost as vig
orously.
Heretofore the offices have been fill
ed without any opposition and without
the least suggestion of a political rip
ple. At present, however, there are
already three candidates In the field for
the presidency and three for the office
of secretary and treasurer.
Captain “Jim” Shepatd, the Incum
bent, Is out again for president, nnd he
Is being opposed by Station Sergeant
W. M. Mayo and Patrolman Tom Ivy.
Each of the three watches of the po
lice force has a candidate, and each
watch Is pulling hard for Its favorite.
Captain Shepard Is In command of
tho morning watch. Sergeant Mayo is
on the evening watch, and Patrolman
Ivy Is a member of the day watch.
Custodian J. C. Carlisle, the secretary
and treasurer, Is being opposed by Po- i
llcemnn A. J. Holcombe nnd Secretary*
Mortis, night secretary to the chief.
The .whole police force Is watching
the two races with great Interest.
After being on a spree for more tnan
tw6 weeks, J. E. McNamara, aged 50.
died at the Salvation Army hall, 73
Marietta street, Thursday afternoon
late. The body was found Thursday
night at 7 o’clock and it Is presumed
that he died about 5 o'clock that aft
ernoon.
McNamara had been on a spree for
more than two weeks and about ten
days ago he registered’ at the army
hall. He was seen often around the
hall from the time he registered until
he was found dead.
McNamara leaves two children, a
hoy nnd a girl. Hfs wife died abou(
fIx months ago. It was brought out at
tho coroner’s Inquest, which was held
at Barclay & Brandon's uncle'tn’.;!np
establishment Friday morning at »
o'clock, that McNamara was addicted
to chronic alcoholism.
Until about six months ago McNa
mara held a responsible position with
the Marietta Marble Company as fore

Because of the necessity of curtail"
Ing expenses, older* have been Issued
abolishing the Southern office-In At
lanta of the land and Industrial de
partment of the Southern railway, to
tuke effect on January 1.
With the closing of the office here. It
Is further understood that W. L. Hen
derson, Southern ngent of this depart
ment, it ordered to Washington . and
thnt the ten men employed In the At
lanta office will he dispensed with.
This means thnt Atlanta will lose one
of the Important factors for several
years past In building up the Industrial
South and that a payroll of between
11.500 nnd 12,000 a month will be cut
off.
Some time ago the Southern was
compelled to nbolish the' offices Mr.
Henderson had established In Mobile,
Montgomery. New Orleans and Chat
tanooga. This left only tho main
Southern office open. Now this will be
abolished.
The Southern office In Atlanta hns
had ten men employed In various po
sitions, all of them paying over 5100 a
month. Among these were traveling
industrial representatives, who brought
parties Interested In Industrial develop
ment In contact with property owners,
and In the past ten years the office has
been the means of many targe manu
facturing plants being located In this
section.
