Lumber Plant Wrecked.
Night Watchman Is
Killed.
Special to The Georgian.
Montgomery. Ala., July It.—James
Jones, night watchman for the Bent
ley, Lumber Company, near Brantley,
wus blown to pieces thli morning by
the explosion of a boiler.
The plant waa wrecked.
There was a scene of tumult at Pied
mont.
Four thousand people had paid out
good coin to see Atlanta wallop th«
Memphll, and they didn't see It. They
didn't even see the finish of a hard-
fought game, for In the ninth Inning
Umpire Campau, acting under Instruo
tlons from the management of both
clubs, stopped the battle to allow Mem
phis to catch the train.
The tact that the game waa to be
called early had not been extensively
advertised. In fact, felv but dyed-ln-
the-wool fans knew It.
And so when his umps, who had been
having the very deuce of a time of It,
signaled that all was off, a swarm of
angry men bussed out onto the field,
after his umps* scalp.
Atlanta players and -Chief Joyner
quickly ran out, surrounded the trem
bling Campau and escorted him to the
dressing room, protecting him from
harm.
The crowd still hung around, grow
ing more and more angry with the
passage of each minute.
Little knots of boiler-makers, shop
hands and other hefty specimens of
humanity were clustered about. Inside
and outslds the park, waiting for the
appearance of the unlucky Campau.
"Here he comes!'* they shouted.
A man In a blue suit of clothes, i
little hand satchel, came out from no.
body knew where. He had a heavy
black mustache.
“It's Campau,' they muttered. Then
they rloeed in on him.
The man In the blue clothes looked
up Inquiringly, then waa startled.
A threatening mob was right on lilm.
“Hit him,” shouted one fellow on the
outside.
'Smash the robber In the face;
hlssad another.
"He used to play. In New Orleans,'
grunted a third.
> Then they came right In on the man
In blue clothes, and trouble waa about
to occur. One of the hoodlums bran
dished hla arms In air, all that was
neded to set the bunch of men In a
frenxy of anger—
When the man ln*blue said:
"Back up, you thugs, I'm not the um

They scattered, for It really wasn’t
the umps.
