53si.:45;5ss Atlanta Constitution.
Fourteen grains of morphine put 8
tragic and sudden end to Remus Jones's
life yesterday afternoon.
The drug was swallowed with suicidal
intent. !.
~ Remus Jones was q young man we'll
known about town, and the intelligence
.of; his self: destruction created quite q
sensation throug ghout the city last night.
He and his twin brother, Rufus ] Jones,
were born and reared in Atlanta, and ere
known sby. nearly every one of their age
who: claim Atlanta as; their place OF na-
stiYity. The two boys were alike-so
much so that only their most intimate
friends could tell one. from the other.
Their family, though bearing q common
name, is one Iof the largest and most
respected in the city. The two boys,
however, have not entertained the most
iscrupulous respect fol; their family name,
and since attaining at hold among men
have been rather wild and reckless.
Time and time again their names have
.praced the police records, but upon each
entry almost, whiskey has been assigned
Eas the cause. Remus j ones appears TO
have been more eckless than his brother,
and upon many occasl onss Il, mas given ,tae
police department consider erableS trouble.
The trouble, though appears to have
been due to whisk key:
