Death While on Board a Train
Saturday Night.

MIR. G.. II. Russell, the popular agent
of the Sea board Air Line railroad at
Dawson, had narrow escape from
death Saturday night. While en- route
over the Central road to Columbus a
bullet came crashing into the car,
SCATTERING the window adjacent to that
by which Mr.. RUSSELL was sitting and
missing him by aoout two feet. An
other gentlema1 was leaning on the
seat over which the ball passed, and
his reclining position was all that
saved him from being shot. 1t the pls-
toll had been fired half second sooner
Mr.. RUSSELL would doubtless have been
fatally wounded, if not instantly killed.
The occurrence took place about two
miles this side of Andersonville, in
Sumter county. The train was brought
to standstill as soon as possible alter
the shooting, but no trace
could be found of the cowardly mis-
creant who fred the pistol.

Tied up in small, dirty sack dla-

value was found Thursday in Mr.. F.

been stolen the previous day, and dill

Thu HEROIC DEAD.
IMMENSE CROWD PAYS TRIBUTE II
MEN WHO WORE THE GREY.

Throughout.

With uncovered head and reVer'
ence that beftted the occasion Dawson
paused again last Friday to pay tribute
10 the brave confederates who fought,
lost and died.
The weather was delightful. 1t was
one of the south 8 perfect spring days
and the glorious sunshine kissed the
.yarlands of roses that covered the
graves where rest the brave men who
wore the grey.
The failure of Judge S. A. Rodden-
berry, who had been chosen to make
the address, to be present was the only
disappointment of the day. He was
providentialIy detained at his home IN
brownsville, being confined to his oed
with fever.
The exercises, which were unusual
Nv appropriate and enjoyable, were
held in the court house in the presence
eff an audience of six hundred people.
Mr.. M. !. Yeomans acted as master of
ceremonies, and the program was open
ed with an earnest and eloquent pray er
by Rev. H. L. Crumbley, followed by
the singing of america
The telegram stating that Judge
Roddenberry could not be present was
received, through no fault of his, after
the exercises were scheduled to begin,
and in the absence of that gentleman
Judge J. G. Parks was pressed into
service and delivered a short address,
which, though extempofe, was both
annropriate and eloquent. He dWelt
particularly upon reconstruction days
and the return of the confederate sol
der from fields of carnage to scenes or
desolation; how the brave spirit OF
these defeated men was truly manifest
ed in their ability to overcome dlfhcul-
ties and inspire the people OF the
southland to renewed efforts, and In
the short space of thirty-fve years re-
store a land from the ruin and ravages
of war to unbounded prosperity. Judge
Parks lofty sentiments and eloquent
periods were frequently applauded,
and his address was greatly enjoyed.

OF the Ladies Memorial Association

plete with tender sentiment, and paid
glowing tribute to the valor OF the
men who experienced the privatlons
and hardehips of the struggle from '6l

Mr.. Parry and his family was residing
temporarily in the second story.
AT 9 80 the storm reached its height
and blew in the west side of the south
end of the building half way down.
Tons of brick crashed into the dining
room where Mr.. Parry and Mrs. Parry
and their three children were sitting.
When this avalanche of brick, mortar,
