Two Five Story Brick Buildings
in Brooklyn Collapse.

New York, Aug. 80. Tons of
brick, mortar, beams and coffee
fell with crash into the street
and on to the elevated structure
and trolley tracks today when two
iivo-story brick buildings on Full
ton street, Brooklyn, collapsed.
twenty-five thousand bags of cof-
fee, owned by j. H. Taylor and
Smith & Walbridge of Manhattan,
were stored in the building and
proved too great burden.
BY maj velous good fortune,
not a man was in the building at
the time. No one was on the
sidewalk, nor were any trolley
cars or elevated trains nearby.
The loss is estimated at about
100000.

Sad Tragedy in Georgia.
Young Ed Mcconnell, Formerly
of Anderson, Cuts His Throat
the Day After His Marriage.

Special TO The State.
Anderson, Aug. 29.-News has
just reached here of the attempt
at suicide at his home in Har,
county, Ga, of Mr.. James Nc.
ConnelI, son of Mr.. Ed G. Nc
Connell of this city. 1t is thought
that the attempt will result fatal.
ly, and the occurrence is made
more tragic by the fact that Mr..
Mcconnell was married just the
day previous.
Mr.. Mcconnell, who is young
man about 20 years old, has been
living in Hart County, Ga, for
several years. Recently be mott
fed relatives here that he was to
be married last Sunday to Miss
Teasley, who lives IN the lower
part OF that county, and his faith
ell went there to be present at the
wedding.
Mr.. Mcconnell returned to An
derson on Monday after having
seen his son Married on Sunday,
having left there Sunday after
noon. Late Monday afternoon
he received telegram that the
young man had attempted suicide
that morning. by cutting his throat
with razor and was not expected
to live. The elder Mr.. McCon-
nell started for bis sons home i'm
mediately on receipt of the teIe-
gram and has not yet returned.
The young man lives in an isolat-
ed section, far removed from tels-
phoue connection, and nothing has
been heard DIS to his condition
since the receipt of the telegram
Monday night.
Young Mcconnell was reared
in the Starr section Of this county
and is quite popular where he is
known. He Is said to have been
a quiet, steady young man, and
no reason can be assigned for his
rash act. He was one of the yerv
last persons one would have ex-
pected to take his life.

Opinion From Headquarters.

Mr.. T. NJ Robertson, formerly of
Randolph county and now employed in
the United States Department of Labor
at Washington, is in the city. Mr.
Robertson is here to place his son in the
A. and M. College. 1t seems a little
strange that a gentleman living ill
Washington, with such fine schools
should go elsewhere to educate his boys.
When asked what particular induce
ment led him to place his son here, he
said that there were several induce
ments. Chief among them is the fact
that the A. and NJ College offers the
very best instruction and it's graduates
are all doing Well. Most of the best
opportunities for young men are in the
industrial world and the richest field in
all this country for industrial develop
ment is the South. No part of the
South is more inviting than North
Carolina We are just beginning to
realize what our opportunities are, and
the young men who prepare themselves
for industrial work will not only render
their State a great service but they viii
also reap rich financial rewards for
themselves
Speaking of the value of technical
education, Mr. Robertson said all the
great industrial centers long ago real
lied that men must be specially trained
for their work. And so New England
established technical and trade schools
years ago. The men trained in these
schools have made that section the
acknowledged industrial center Of
America. 1t is his belief that when the
manufacturers of North Carolina realize
the value to themselves of technically
trained men the A. and M. College will
have all the room and all the money it
needs and when it gets it the State Will
feel the effects of the college as it has
those OF no other school within its Dor
