square a telephone post and its cross
arm offered a convenient gallows. The
end of the rope was tossed over the
arm. a dozen hands grasped it and the
negro, perhaps already dead, was
drawn high into rhe air. Pistols and
rifles cracked and the corpse was man

a human form. Then the mob, its

Parole at Last in Sight
For Convict 31 Years ,
As Slayer of Woman
Governor Joseph M. Brown has prac
tically dele mined to parole James Jol
ly. a white man convicted of the murder
of a woman in DeKalb "county more
than 31 years ago. and who has served
the state as a convict ever since in a
most exemplary manner.
Jolly was sent up for life for murder
ing Victoria Norris, under most pecu
liar circumstances, and his petition for
clemency has been passed upon ad
versely by no less than six governors
preceding Brown, and once by Blown
hiriseif.
The governor today made up his
mind to parole Jolly, if it can be done
witli an understanding that the parole
is not to be used as a stepping stone to
a pardon. The present governor will not
pardon Jolly.
Jolly is now over 62 years of age.
He began his term of service in April.
1881. four years after the crime for
which he was sent up was committed. (
The murder took place in 1877, so ,
long ago that there are now no rec- .
ords of it to be found.

AIDSBROTHER
WHO KILLED
FOR SLUR
ON WIFE
Dr. A, Lee Curtis Goes to Mis
sissippi Town to Help His
Relative at Trial.
Dr. A. Lee Curtis, proprietor of sev
eral drug stores, and a former council
man left today for Jackson. Miss., to
aid his brother. W. H. Curtis, who is
held in jail there- for killing .1. H Hel
ion last Sunday. Young Curtis shot
Helton dead with an automatic pistol,
and then surrendered to the police. The
killing was the aftermath of a fight be
tween the two men. and the trouble
grew out of alleged remarks by Helton
reflecting on Curti-' wife.
W. H. Curtis was well known in At
lanta. where h ■ lived until a f**v ■.•or
ago. Two brothers restd6 here —A. L.
and H. C. Curti;- both drug -'-; '*•
two years W H. Curtis nas been living
in Jackson
Dispatches from Jackson say that
Helton was sitting in the office of Dr.
A.< S. Applewhite when Curtis came in.
The doctor heard Helton make am ex
clatnation. and turned to see him facing
the door, with a pistol In Ills hand.
Then a shot was heard’ but. by this
time the physician had taken to his
heels. Turning back al the foot of the
stairs, he saw t'vrtis oming dow» with
a revolver in his hand.
Helton Is Struck
By Six Bullets.
The place was soon filled with men
drawn by the shots, and it was found
that Helton had been struck by six bul
lets. Curtis had used a rapid-fire au
tomatic pistol, and had emptied it into
Helton's body. The slayer went to the
police station ami gave himself up aft
er the tragedy
Curtis will enter a plea of self-de
fense. it is reported, but he steadily has
refused to discuss the case with news
paper mtn or officials. His relatives
say that when he entered the physi
cian's office, he saw Helton draw his
pistol, and fired first.
The dispatches state that the shoot
ing fallowed an encounter of several
weeks ago, when Helton was badly
beaten by Curtis and L V. Sykes, the
father of Mrs. Curtis. It was asserted
then that Helton had made remarks
reflecting *>n Mrs. Curtis' character.
Some time previous Helton had sued
Curtis and Sykes for SIO,OOO damages,
alleging defamation of character, and
it is alleged that be wrote Mrs. Curtis ■*
letter agreeing to withdraw the suit,
provided she would meet him for an
interview, if is allege*) that she gave
this letter to her husband, and the beat,
ing followed.
Mrs. Curtis and her father have vis
ited Curtis in jail, and thei; meetings
were iffeetionate. but all refuse to dis
cuss the ease further than to say every
thing will com A out at tr.e trial.
Curtis and Sykes are engaged in
building and contracting work, while
Helton was in the book business. He
was a young man. and went to Missls
sjnoi from Kentucky several years ago.
COUNTY TAX LEVY
IS INCREASED FOR
NEW COURT HOUSE
The board of county commissioners
this afternoon agreed to increase the
tax levy for the county for next year
one-half mill, making it 6 1-2 mills on

The purpose of the increased levy is
to provide needed money for the com
pletion of the new court house, now
under construction. The commission
ers expect the increase realized to be
between SBO,OOO and SIOO,OOO. The
total income for next year is estimated
at approximately $900,000.
