An industrial journal suggests that Kan,

able improvement on the architecture OF
their 'cyclone pits" by studying and adopt
ing the principles on which an American
building company is constructing houses In
parts Of South America specially subject
to earthquake disturbance. Broad iron
girders encircle the building near the mid
die Of each story, and vertical bars join the
roof to the basement in way that will

GEANES ASSAULTED !
John Lee Slashes Him with a Dull
HatChet,
and Cuts Scalp Wound About Three
Inches Deep.
IS THOUGHT HE WILL NOT RECOVER
People who Come and Go-Brief Brevi-
ties Of Interest to All Readers
of The Globe.


Another tragedy has been enacted at
Smoky Hollow.
&. NJ. Geans was yesterday assaulted
by man named John w. Lee, and al
most killed The doctor says that he
may die yet from the wound. Lee
struck Geans with a hatchet inf1icting a
fearful scalp wound. Lee escaped.
Geans, at 3 o'clock this afternoon at the
home of Essie Erwin, a prostitute, is
resting easy.
AS is usual in such cases dozen sto.
rics are atlOat as to how the row took
place. AS nearly as we can catch on,
thi, is what Geans claims.
He says that he was cutting wood 1t
is generally known that he lives with
Missouri Smith, alias Essie Erwin, alias
the Lord knows who, and if there is no
wood cut he cuts it. The fellow Lee,
about half drunk in company with a
man Of this place named Pickard, went
to the Erwin mansion between and 6
o'clock last evening, and wanted to enter
the house.
Miss Essie" was up town, and the
door was locked Another divine crea
turc was in the house, bat being in a del
icate condition would not open the door.
Geans told the fellows to go away. Lee
cursed him and row followed. Geans
turned around to go in the house, and
Lee struck him, what may prove fatal
blow, in the head with hatchct. Then
it is said that Lee threw the axe and
hatChet into field, pulled his revolver,
and threatened to kill anyone who inter
fered, and struck out on a run for the
woods.
Another story is, told by Pickard' s
brother, coming to him from the Pickard
who accompanied Lee, that Geans started
to Lee with an axe and Lee tomahawked
him-throwing the hatChet several feet.
A negro woman saw it alias did also
Pickard.
The authorities have telegraphed all
over the country, giving description of
Lee, and are hopeful of catching him.
Lee has brother, Tom, living in this
city--a tirst-rate young man.
John Lee, they say, was run out of
Reidsville few months ago for some
row he had there-and in liquor is said
to be a bad man.
Geanes has sent for his mother and
step father, who live in Chatham. He
will remain at the home of his 'lady love-
for several days. The opinion of DR.
Johnson is that he is dangerously hurt
At this rate, Smoke will soon be cleaned,
