TOOK HER FOR A BURGLAR.
And the SON Fired, Corset steel Saw
ing His Mothers Life.


Americas, Ga, Oct. 11-Mrs. John Ferg-
uson, wife of former Representative Ferg-
uson. of Lee county, residing near Ameri-
Gus, had a narrow escape from death at
the hands of he- son one night recently.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ferguson had been visit
ing neighbors, and returned home at
late hour at night. Mrs. Ferguson pro-
ceeded TO the house and raped loudly for
admittance, her husband in the meanwhile
putting away the horses. Their young son
Alph in the house, was aroused by the
knocking, and thinking il was burglars
trying to effect an entrance, fired a pistol
shot through the closed door, the bullet
striking his mother in the side.
Fortunately the course of the bullet was
DETECTED by corset steel, else the wound
might have proved serious. Burglars had
robbed Mr.. Ferguson the night previous,
and young Ferguson, forgetting his par
ents were absent, doubtless thought an at
tack was being made upon the dwelling.
The recruiting station here for the For
ty-eighth Regiment colOred, is doing eX-
cellent work. Already twenty volunteers
have been accepted by the officer in
charge, and sent TO Fort Thomas, where
the regiment is stationed Negroes here
are most enthusiastic az the idea of get
ting into the army, and several apply
daily. More than half the applicants are
rejected OH account of diseases.

city council committee appointed by

the charges made against Mayor James

pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist church,
made a report this afternoon to the eff

Mayor Woodward's frank acknowledge
