Brothers. Ranchmen, Have Not
Been Seen Since July 30th.
Father Reported Missing,
DOUGLAS, ARIZ., Aug. S.—That two
Americans have been added to the list
of foreigners supposedly murdered in
Mexico was the belief here today of
friends of Gordio Boyd and K. Boyd.
Friends of the Boyd brothers reached
Douglas today from the Can-etas ranch,
near Colonia. Oaxaca. They reported
that the brothers, who had been living
on the ranch with their father, ,1. .1.
Boyd, had not been seen since July 30.
Their house was found wide open and
deserted. Lying about it and inside
were nearly 400 empty cartridges.
. The matter was reported to General
Sanjines, who sent one of his officers to
investigate. The officer confirmed the
report received here of the brothers,
their father and their Chinese cook also
being missing.
Rebels Ready to
Move Southward
«
EL PASO, TEXAS. Aug. X.—General
Orozco, the rebel commander-in-chief,
may abandon his plan for a campaign
in west Mexico and move southward
from Juarez. There are already 2,000
insurgent soldiers at Huamada, while
others are being, concentrated along
the Mexican Central railway lines. The
bulk of General Huerta's federal force
is stationed at Chihuahua, wheie they
have thrown up intr »nchim tits Itnd
planted cannon to defend the city
against attack.
The rebels at Juarez are executing
prisoners by the wholesale, according
to the story of a deserting artilleryman
who crossed the Rio Grande. This
Mexican said that men arrested as fed
eral spies are being shot dally behind
the adobe Cuartel. He also said the
provisions and ammunition of the in
surrectos are running very low.
DEAD MAN SIGNS WILL
LEAVING HIS WIDOW ALL
DENVER. COLO., Aug. B.—That G.
A. Westerdahl was dead when he sign
ed his will is admitted by his widow',
who filed the document for probate.
Supported by Mrs. Westerdahl, her hus
band wrote an eight-word will, giving
to her his entire estate. He had com
pleted the signature all but the crossing
of the "t" when he sank back in het
arms dead. But a moment after life
had departed a muscular contraction
caused the hand holding the pen to draw
it in an irregular, wavering line across
the stem of the letter, crossing it and
completing the signature. Not until
this was done was the will completed.

.Miss Georgia Mell Reinhardt Brown, the only youngster in
the Cnited tSates named after a state by a state legislature. She
was christened by the Georgia house of representatives.
Little Georgia Meli Brown Will
Give the Legislature an Ice
Cream Party.
Once upon a time a grim, gruff be
whiskered old legislature was touch
ed by the sunshine that turns Georgia’s
red clay into shimmering gold and
transformed itself —just for a wee
while—-Into a fairy godfather. That
was days and days ago.
And today to make this a real good
fairy story the dimpling little miss for
whom the old legislature turned god
father will reward it with a big re
ception.
Miss Georgia Mell Reinhardt Brown,
the only youngster in the United
States ever thus christened, will now
THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, AUGUST 8. 1912.
take her place as the youngest
Little Miss Brown—a terribly dignified
way to talk of such a precious bunch
of mischief as she is—will be presented
to the house tonight at five by Repre
sentative Nesbit, father of the original
christening resolution.
Little Miss Brown in celebrating her
birthday will give an ice cream parly
to the whole legislature. Her invita
tion, read to the house today, was ac
cepted by a unanimous vote. It fol
lows:
"Hon. John Holder, Speaker:
“Dear Sir—l wish to extend through
you an invitation to the members of
the house of representatives who so
kindly named me at my birth one year
ago, to be my guests at a luncheon of
ice cream and cake to be served In the
corridors of the capitol Thursday after
noon at 5 o’clock. This invitation I
wish to extend to the employees of the
house and senate and members of the
senate, representatives of the press and
other capitol attaches—especially all
the pages. Respectfully,
"GEORGIA BROWN.”
It will be the first time the house has
officially seen its goddaughter, who
was just a year old the other day, and
if they think the same as her mother—
Mrs. George Brown, wife of the physi
cian and legislator—they sure will be
proud of her.
FISH STRANDED IN RIVER:
WARDEN TO THE RESCUE
BLOOMINGTON, ILL., Aug. B.
Hannes Lawson, deputy fish warden,
has been actively engaged for the past
month in rescuing fish stranded by the
receding water in the sloughs along the
Pecatonica river. These sloughs were
filled when the water was high several
months ago, but with the evaporation
and other causes the water is disap
pearing, leaving the fish to die unless
removed to the stream below. Deputy
Lawson ijas saved many thousand bass
pike and pickerel, and will keep up the
work until all are rescued.
Indian Killed On Track.
Near Rochelle, 111., an Indian went to
•sleep on a railroad track and was killed
by the fast express. He paid for his
carelessness with his life. Often it’s
that way when people neglect coughs
and colds. Don’t risk your life when

Clubwomen Begin Move to Im
prove Yards by Filling Dan
gerous Pits.
Mrs. Charles J. Haden, president of
the City Federation of Women s Clubs,
began a movement today for the im
provement of school yards.
"Why not take advantage of all the
waste dirt from the various street ex
cavations the city is making and use
this to till up the school yards?"
This question will be asked the city
council by the club women,
"There are holes in our school house
playgrounds big enough -for a child to
fall in," said Mrs. Haden. “I under
stand that much of the earth which is
being removed from along Peachtree
and Baker streets and nt various other
places in the city is being actually
given away to those who will haul it,
and in many cases is being hauled by
the city wagons and dumped gratis on
some one’s lot which needs filling.
"Now, why not let the city haul this
dirt to the school yards and throw it
there? Practically every yard in town
needs some filling and, as I said, many
of them are In a deplorable state.
"In many cases the dirt could be
dumped in the yard and scraped over
with a few shovels and that would be
all the labor required. At the Forrest,
Davis and Tenth street schools a re
taining wall would have to be built, but
this ought to be done anyway."
Mrs. Haden is going to bring the
matter up before the next meeting of
the federation and numbers of At
lanta’s most prominent club women are
backing her in the movement.
