’the terms expire, a new Judge Is to be
chosen by the people for a full term of
six yeurs. Two will constitute a quo
rum In deciding cases. •
C The new court will have Jurisdiction
.over crises which do not involve the

JUDGE RICHARD B. RUSSELL
!
f
Judge H. B. Bussell, of Winder, led the ticket In the' raco for ap
pellate Judgeahlfar, which la In the nature at a very distinct compliment to
the Jackson county man. ‘
Judge Russell was not a voluntary candidate; In fact, had no In
tention of entering the race. But on the Anal day for candidates to pay
the entrance fee, a friend paid the money. When Judge Russell found
tjmt ho was a candidate—whether or no—he hot-footed It to Atlanta
and entered a protest to his friend.
Mrs. Russell, too, vetoed the plan, hut the people did not. They went
to the. polls and heartily supixirtcd the Judge for the place. He won
hands down, and never solicited a man to vote for hltn, which Is In the
way of being something unique In elections. 1
Judge Russell—really It seems premimptlous to try to tell the public
about him. At any rate, he was born In t’obb county In 1861. When only
if yeurs of age he graduated from the University of Georgia and a year
or ho luter from the law department. They didn't wait until he waa 21
before sending him to the legislature. But they made no mistake, be
cause he showed great uptltude for” the game.
Then he was elected solicitor general of the western circuit, after
wards becoming Judge of the name circuit, und from which he re
signed to enter the gubernatorial campaign. He Is said to have prodig
ious capacity for work.
JUDGE REN H. HILL JUDGE A. G. POWELL
Benjamin . Harvey Hill Is the
worthy sun of one of Georgia's
greatest men. the lamented Sen
ator Benjamin Harvey Hill. He la
an able lawyer, u quiet and dlgnl-
ned gentleman and in every way
eminently quHlIfled for the new
responsibilities Georgian* have be
stowed-upon him.
Judge Hill la the eldest son of
Senator Hill, and waa born In the
historic old homestead at LaGrange
in Troup county July l, HH(. lie
attended the common school* of
Troup county until he was 17,
when he entered the University of
Georgia, from which he graduated
In lata with the degree of A. B. and
B. L. He wua selected by hla
classmates os commencement or
ator.
Arter graduation he went abroad,
spending a year In Europe travel
ing and studying. He waa admit
ted to the bar In 1871, and formed
a partnership with his distinguish
ed father, which tontlnued until
Senator Hlirdted In 1881.
In 1887 Governor Colquitt named
him as general of the At
lanta circuit, and he was re-electsd
by the legislature for a term of
four years. He declined a third
term and was succeeded by hi*
brother, Charles Hill, now solicitor.
During Cleveland's first term Mr.
Hill was appointed United 8tates
district attorney for the northern
district of Georgia. He has since
been associated with hla brother In
the practice of law.
Arthur Gray Powell, of Ulhkely,
la reckoned one of the ablest
young law yers In Georgia. That la
the verdict of the supreme court of
Georgia, which Is about as expert
teatlmony along that line as Is
obtainable. 4
He la young, having been born
September !. 1S7S, but nobody who
knows hlin has uny apprehension
ns to his ability and fltncaa for hla
new poaltton. It la said that he has
the beat law practice In hi* entire
section of the state, which he has
built up by sheer merit.
Self-made Is applicable to him.
•for lie began hustling for himself
early In Ilfs. When only 14 he was
an apprentice In a printing ofllce,
and not very much older when he
taught school. Mercer Is hla alma
mater, and before he was IS ht
was admitted to the bar. In 1901
he attended the law department of
the University of Virginia.
When only 11 Governor Atkin
son appointed him Judge of the
county of Blakely, which place ho
fllled with ability for four years.
He was then tendered the position
of solicitor of the Pataula circuit,
but was not old enough to accept
the profer.
Judge Powell was married In
18(8 to Miss Annie Wilkins, of
Miller county, and they have two
charming children. He Is promi
nently Identified with several busi
ness enterprises In Blakely, where
he was born and raised.
NECHO WOMAN USES
HAT PIN AS WEAPON
The hat pin as a weapon Is not so
much of a Joke as It has been consid
ered. That a woman can do things
with one Is not a pure product of the
funmaker's mind.
Rosa Whits, a black woman, got Into
a squabble with Conductor H. O. Hart
on an East Point car Monday evening
and drawing the pin which held her hat
to her head, she Inflicted a very pain
ful wound by sticking It obliquely Into
the street car official's side and tear
ing It out.
Hart got her weapon from her and
then she tried to cut him up with a
case knlf*. The conductor held the
woman until he got to East Point,
where he turned her over to County
Policeman Peacock.
MRS. MARYA. GOSSETT
T
Mrs. Mary A. Gossett, of 153 Wheeler
street, died Monday morning at the
age of 98 years. Sirs. Gossett was born
In Dooly county and had lived In At-
lama for many years. Her body was
sent to Courtney for Interment Tues
day.
Mr*. Gossett was born a year before
the war of 1817. She watched the
growth of the young nation, lived
througjt the war with Mexico, watched
the four years of civil war and the pe
riod that followed It and In her old
age saw her descendants march away
to fight In the war with Spain. She
was Known for her fund of anecdote
and her recollections of th* customs of

. TO CAPT REDDING
Augusta Man May Be New
Director of Experiment
Station.
After 17 years at th* head of the
Georgia experiment station at Griffin,
It seems more than probable that Cap
tain R. J. Redding will be retired at
the meeting of tha directors In Griffin
on Wednesday, and Martin V. Calvin,
of Augusta, put Ini his place. .
The directors, 14 In number, will
meet at the experiment station on
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock to
elect officers for the experiment work
In Georgia for the ensuing year. Sent!
ment among the directors seems to be
crystallised Into the belief that Captain
Redding should novir retire from active
service because of his advanced years.
All of them recognlxe his long and
faithful service''to the state and the
splendid work he has accomplished In
advancing the agricultural and horti
cultural Interests of Georgia. To him
belongs the credit of Georgia's great
strides along thla line In recent years.
Hon. Martin V. Calvin, of Augusta,
who will, In all probability, succeed
Captain Redding, Is well equipped for
thla work. He has represented Rich
mond county In the legislature many
years, and has always been deeply In
terested in agricultural mutters. If
elected to the position he will give
Georgln splendid service. The position
pays J2.000, a year.
This will probably be the only change
In the personnel "of the officials con
nected with the station. Horticulturist
Starnes and Professor Willoughby, In
charge of the dairy work, will be re
elected.
Thirty-one million feet of lumber is
said to be tied up In the territory ton-
tilled by* loom lumber ' fnt*rfsHr ( 'Be-
cause of one. of-the fltost serious
freight car shortages within the. past
several years. Saw-mills have • been
closed down and quite a number are
running on half time because of the
Inability HT tnt maftafftt'ttifeftt'M , tffijve

Railroad men refuse 1 to discuss the
situation further than to say thaythey
arc doing their best to supply the de
mand. The call for cars Is by far -the
heaviest In years and the shortage Is
affecting all the shipping Interests
whose movements are heavier In <he
fall than other seasons.
Conference Called,
meeting of the lumber manufac
turers of this section Is.expected Lo. be
called within the next two week* to
decide upon some mutual plan for re
lief. The matter will ho thoroughly
discussed at th* convention of lumber
and saw-mill people now In session at
the Piedmont.
George K. Smith, of Atlanta, made
a short talk to the delegates Tuesday
morning and reviewed the conditions
as reported from this section. He men
tioned the car shortage and said that
the lumber people were more seriously
affected than any of tha other shipping
Interests.
“The railroad* are doing all they can
possibly do," said Mr. Smith, "but there
Is a great quantity of lumber In this
section awaiting shipment. Many of
the manufacturers are cutting down
their output because of lack of cars to
ship their stocks. Prices nre good, but
the demand I* not as brisk as Is usual
at thla time of th* year.
‘it Is estimated," ha continued, "that
at least 81,000,000 fset of lumber Is tied
up.

Carpenters and all other branches of
the building trad* or* busy and there
la plenty of room for other laborers.
How much damage the recent storm did
Is unknown, unless men have been sent
out t<g make an estimate. I do know a
great deal of damage was done along
the Oulf and Ship Island road and
south of Hattiesburg. Miss. Stacks
have been blown down and mills un
roofed. It Is possible that portable mills
will b* sent out to save the fallen tim
ber."
