But SHOT THREE TIMES rlH-LAW Poole Says Bishop Insulted His Wife and He Stmck Him for That. Special' to The Gmrglan. Rome. aa.,.Dec. I.—At S o'clock yes terday afternoon, at tha Wooten livery stable, ori' Broad street, W. S. Bishop, ovsrseer on the plantation of Hamilton Yancey, at Cedar BliKf, Ala., was shot and seriously wounded by resile Poole, a half-brother of Bishop's wife. Leslie Poole and 8. C. Lindsay, both of Kast Rome, went Into the livery sta ble to/take a drink, where they met Bishop. Poole and Bishop “walked olf to the rear of * the stable together. Shortly afterwards the reports of a pistol was heard, and Bishop came back to the street with blood streaming from him. Ho walked up the street to the nfllce of Dr. C. Hamilton, two blocks away, where his wounds were dressed and he was afterwards sent to the hos pita! of Dr. Hamilton. Three serious wounds were Inflicted, the bullets lodging in Bishop's body. Poole said: "fllehop Insulted my wife seven or eight months ago and thW is the first time 1 had seen him since the time. We had a difficulty, but there were no shots fired. The place on Bishop’s cheek la where I struck him with my fist. I heard a report, but thought It waa a mule kicking In stall." • The trial of Lester Poole, which was to have come up before Recorder Spul- lock this morning, has been postponed until Monday, on account of tho ah sence of one of the witnesses. The wounded man Is thought this morning to be out of danger, unless some unforeseen complication arises.

LIEUT. PRITCHETT’ VISITING ATLANTA First Lieutenant W. M. Pritchett, of the United States marine corps, Is In Atlanta spending u few days with rela tives. He has recently been visiting his old home at Cartersvllle, On., and upon leaving this city he goes to Buffalo, N. Y., to take charge of tho marine corps recruiting office. Mr. Pritchett was one of the officers recently sent to Cuba with one of the expeditionary battalions of marines, but previous to that time he was on boanl the United States steamship Yankee. BLOOMING OUTLAW HAS CAREER NIPPED Special to The Georgian. Decatur, Ala., Dec. 8.—Tom Williams, colored, known its "Pepper Dick,” stole IJftO from-un open safe In W. W. Gar nett's store today.

A graduate of Colum bia College, he entered tile general the- ollgieal seminary and In ISS3 was or dained. Hlahop Seymour-was a pro lific writer on religious subjects. TECH CALLS FOR HELP IN THE TIME OF NEED Continued from Page One. uates is greater than tho supply, HAS REACHED LIMIT. But the institution has reached its limit of growth on the present campus. Dr. Matheson states that it cannot remain on its present campus if it continues to grow as in the-past. It needs more buildings and there is not room on the pres ent campus for them. On ac count of this lack of room, it was necessary to £lacc the Carnegie library of tho school nyich too close to other buildings. This li brary, which is just being com pleted, has taken up'all the availa ble room for buildings left on tho campus! Dr. Matheson’s request is for aid of a very small nature and the citizqps of Atlanta should be will ing to subscribe ten times tho aniouut without a moment’s hesi tation. Tiiere should not be tho least trouble in getting the $5,- 500 asked by Dr. Matheson. Money subscribed for the pur pose of enlargiug the campus of tho Qeorgia School of Technology would he an investment of the best kind. Business men are constant ly looking for places to put their money so ns to reap a profit. But hero is an opportunity right at their doors to reap big profits from a small amount of motley. The profits are reaped in this wav: WILL FIGURE PROFIT, Qeorgia Tech has 545 students. These students live in Atlanta during the school period and pur chase most all their clothing in this city. Money for incidentals to a large amount is also expended here. Over >100,000 worth of goods are annually bought from firms of Atlanta by students of the institution. Statistics which are in the hands of Dr. Matheson show the names of two hundred linns with wlqch these students trade. If the campus is not enlarged, the school will bo forced to remain at a stand-still, and no more stu dents can be admitted. The school has beeu- iucreasing at a tremendous pace and the probabil ity is that it will continue to do so. If the small space of three acres which it js wished to secure is pprehased for the school, there will bo sufficient room to erect buildings to accommodate nil of the students who want to enter. This large number of new stu dents will bring a largo amount of additional money to Atlanta, which will be spent with the firms of this city. In a little while, the increase in money in circulation in this city will more than make up. the amount of tho subscription contributed. CIVIC PRIDE INVOLVED. But Atlanta should subscribe this amount not only as an invest ment, but it should be done as a matter of civic pride. One hundred and twenty-five of the young men of Atlanta are students at Georgia Tech and arc enjoying the benefits of this edu cational institution. Graduates of the institution are leading in the development of At lanta's resources. The institution, as the best en gineering institution in the South, is adding greatly to the prestige of the city and is making it known throughout the country and even in other countries as an educational centor. Applications for catalogues come from China, South Africa and other places where the exis tence of the institution has made Atlanta known. ATLANTA BENEFICIARY, Atlanta is the chief beneficiary of the school’s advancement and should willingly aid in keeping it from decay. For if the campus is not enlarg ed, the school will be stagnated and stagnation generally is fol lowed by decay. Presidents of four or five of the greutest universities in the noun- try have stated that they consid er Georgia Tech the leading engin eering institution in the South. Shall it be said of Atlanta that for the want of a few thousand dollars, .she let such an institu tion, the greatest in her borders, go to decay? Atlanta 1 * Plain Outy. Educational Institutions are Junrely dependent on the cities In which they are located. At Philadelphia the clt- IxetiM of that city eubsertbed 91.000.000 for the erection of a single building, an engineering building, for the Uni bled by an appeal for aid for Jifcr ed ucational institutions Compare the figures of the laat cen sus in respect to Atlanta and Phila delphia, as to their respective ability to The Sidway Bsdstead Atlanta had at tho time of the cen tals 390 estaliilclimeiUs, with a total capital of *16,046,166. There were 8,866 wage-earner* and the total wage* of the** men were *8,103,989, Philadelphia'* establishment* num bered 15,887, with a capital of 3476.- 639,407. The nverage number of wage- earners wa* 346,445. The total atqpunt of wage* canto to 3111.847.076. The average capital to on establish ment In AUnnta waa *41,141. while the average capital -to an e*tabll»htnent In Philadelphia wax only *38.994. The average wage per man In Atlanta wa* *382, while that In, Philadelphia waa 1463. Interfiling Comparison. Tho men who generally contribute toward matters of great importance to city are It* buxine** men: lienee the contributing capacity of a city m*y be reckoned by the nmoont of It* capital. The amount of capital to each establishment in Atlanta ta larger than the amount of capital per establishment In Philadelphia. Hence it appears that the . average business man of Atlanta should better be able to contribute than the average busi ness man of Philadelphia. Of course Philadelphia having a larger number of — —trlb men can naturally contribute Jl.OOO,- 060 more easlly-than Atlanta, but At lanta, even allowing Philadelphia her larger number of men, can certainly contribute *6.600 * hundred times easier than Philadelphia can aubscrjbe for 11,000,000. The average wage per man In Philadelphia Is slightly greater than In'Atlantg, but ar has been said, the larger number of men there ex plains the cause. Th* Only Way to Do It. Geotgla has larger mineral resources ln her soil, Including gold, silver, coal, iron, marble and many others. These und her many other Industrie* demand men skilled in technological subjects. The best way to this skill Is at a tech nological Institution. Atlanta has the Institution. It Is lielng rapidly Ailed with student*. Number* of skilled technologist* are annually turned nut for the benefit of the city and the state. The»o go to work to develop the re sources of the city and state. The de mand for these inen I* much greater than the supply. The school Is over crowded. Tho only way to supply the Increasing demand I* to have more students.

Th* citlsens of Atlanta must realise the efforts of the Institution to help It and tho state, and must reciprocate with this little financial aid which Is asked. REVENUE OFFICERS CATCH MOONSHINERS Table. as its name implies, is primarily intended for sick room nsc, but it is so handsome in design and so finely finish ed, that no matter where it is used it will lend attrac tion to, its surroundings; and aside from its use for serving a meal, it is admirably adapted in the library or sick room as a reading table, in the dining room as a serving table, in the den ns a card table, as a sewing table, or for writing purposes. It is instantly adjusted, and no matter how or where used it is perfectly adapt ed to the purpose, and is absolutely rigid in every posi tion.

The largest subscription was one for *36.000. The Special to 'I'be Georgina. McRae, Ga., Dec. 8.—A deal has been consummated between F. R. Mann and others of this county nnd a northern company for several thousand acres of valuable hardwood forests, which Is in great abundance In the creeks and river valleys In this section. This is the first effort to place on the market sny of the many kinds of hard 'woods in this section. These woods have long been considered of little value, ust as the vast areas of yellow pine* were only a few years ago, but the quality of the wood Is all that a manufacturer could wish. Most men who shave themselves have oue or more good razors, a good strop, use good soap, and tlien are compelled to go from pillar to post, as it were, to secure a plaee where a mirror can be hung so as to give even a fair reflection for shaving, and if a location is found that is fairly satisfactory for shaving by daylight, the yery opposite condition usually exists if occasion requires its use by artificial light. This mirror am bo instantly raised or lowered to ad mit of use standing or sitting, and whether the man is tall or short, it’ean be adjusted to the exact height desired. If sick or injured, and still able to use a razor, the stand can be carried wherever desired; but whether raised or lowered, whether the light is natural or artificial, a per fect reflection is always obtained, and no part of the face can ever be in shadow, for the mirror swivels to ev ery conceivable angle, at the will of the user. The same reasons that make it desirable for shaving purposes ap ply to its use as an adjunct in the preparation of d wo man’s toilet. They are made of gray iron castings and seamless steel tubing, artistic in design, strongly constructed, and fitted with best French plate mirrors.* They arc finished in black enamel, oxidized copper,nickel and brass plated.
