 On last Tuesday evening a the Victor mine on Lynx creek Hugh Mathison was drowned while taking a bath in a large tank He was a native of Michigan and was about 8 years of age, was a graduated chemist and mining engineer, having received his education in both the United States and England. He has been q resident of this territory for several years, and was an expert in saving values by the cyanide process. MT. Carrigan informs the writer that MT. Mathison informed him just previous to his death that this method of treating Victor ores was an unqualified success. In his death the community loses a valuable man, and the mining industry valuable informa- tion as well.
 On the date mentioned MT. Mathi- son, in company with Joe Freeier and John Asher, decided to take a bath in the newly constructed cyanide tank which was filled with warm water pumped from the stump of the mine. Upon the three entering the tank MT. Mathisons friends soon noticed his disappearance and quickly recognized that he had sunk. Mr. Freeler quick ly clambered onto the edge of the tank when MT. Mathison came to the sur face and quickly went down again. MT. Asher dove after him and his left arm was clu5ched at the wrist by Matnison. and upon coming to the surfece Asher caught Freeler by the leg and strug- gle for life and death for several sec Onds resulted. Asher could not bring Mathison to the surface and his own life depended on his grip. At last MT. Mathison released bis hold on Asher and sank to the bottom. Messrs. Asher and Freeler hurriediy proceeded to chop a hole in the tank. and were soon joined by others. by by the time the remains were rescued life had been ex- tinct for some time.

DYSENTERY CU3;HC WITHOUT
 THE AID OF A DOCTOR

"I am just up from a hard spell of the Aux" (dysentery) says MT. T. A. Primer, well known merchant of Drummond, Tenn. "I used one small bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and was cured without having a doctor. I consider it the best cholera medicine in the world. There is no need of employing a doctor when this remedy is used, for no doc tor can prescribe better medicine for bowel complaint in any form either for children or adults. It never fails and is pleasant to take. For sale by Elvey & Hulett, druggists.

THE cL1FToN-DURANGo ROAD.

THE LIFTON-DURANGO ROAD.
 Chief Engineer Wiggleworth, of the Clifton Durango railroad, and party of engineers, arrived in Clifton last week, having finished going over and check ing up the former survey of the entire line from Clifton to Durango. MT. Wiggleworth assures the public that the road will be built, and that in the near future, but cannot now set date for the commencement of the work. It is a pretty big enterprise, and one which requires little time for ar ranging preliminaries and finances. Coming as it does from the best coal and coke fields in the United States, this road means much to the mining sections of Arizona, as it will give them a superior class of coke and coal tC that which they are now using, at perhaps one half the present cost. It will also give them the very best of mining timbers and lumber at very greatly reduced rates. With the pres ent low price of copper cheaper mining supplies are most essential. With the completion of this new road, Clifton will at once come to the front as the great smelting and mining center of the southwest.

That of the First Regiment Is Hav-
Ing Money Troubles.
The First Regiment Band has al
most reached point where it is con-
fronted by the necessity of disband-
ing. 1t has proven a valuable adjunct
to the military of the city, and, lat
terly, has been managed and conduct
ed in a way to win the admiration of
all who have heard it play. 1t is Ylav-
ing financial difficulties, however, and
unless aid is secured from some
source, there VIII be no alternative.
and DISARMAMENT will be necessary.
Only $40 a week is earned by the
band by its regular work, yet the sal
airy list is $3.50. The extra engagements
are not frequent enough to make up
the difference. Manager E. A. Massart
declares that there will be no other
course than the disruption of the band
unless some means can be hit upon
to improve its financial condition.
The band was organized nearlyYa
year ago 1t has made an excellent
appearance upon public occasions, and
its work has been often highly CONT
mended. For a brief period it's must
cal efforts were not up to the high
STANDARD mat they nave laCterfy main
tanned, but the management corrected
the fault as soon as it was apparent.
Aid from the city is looked for, and
efforts have beer made to secure a
weekly approximation on the score of
the concerts that the band
has given and will give in the Park
Extension. From the merchants, too.
assistance will be solicited. and a COM
mittee will begin visiting them to-
morrow in the hope that they may
subscribe to a fund that will mean the
retention Of the band.

Scholarships in the Georgia School
of Technology.

There have been established at the
Georgia School of Technology three
scholarships by the late Aaron French
of Pittsburg, Pa, which amounts to
a loan to the students enjoying them
and yet gives the student the benefit
of limited amount of money during
his four years course in the institution.
The conditions are as follows:
First. The applicant must be at
least Is years of age.
Second. No one is eligible whose
family pays taxes on more than So,
900 worth of property.
Third. Scholarships are to be award
ed by competitive eXamination in the
following subjects:
Algebra; through quadratics and
radicals.
Geometry; through Plane.
English, including grammatical con-
structions of sentences, composition or
letter showing proficiency in spelling,
punctuation and division into para
graphs and parsing.
Fourth The winner of the scholar
ship is to be paid $125.00 per annum
for four years, giving his notes for
small amounts, payable after gradua-
ton without interest.
II Will Oe SSSfI That lIlS pan eIld-
bles the scholarships to be self-per-
petuating, and it will not lapse at any
time unless the beneficiary or his fam
lily should become unable to meet the
obligations. AS the successful appli-
cant is chosen by competition, his sue
cessful accomplishment of the course of
study may be considered an assured
fact.
The first scholarship was one in the
fall of 1898, and the beneficiary, Mr. E.
w. Klein of Atlanta. has just gradu-
ated with credit to himself and the in
stitution. His notes for money drawn
out in 1898 are beginning to mature,
and their payment will offer another
young man the scholarship tnis fall.
A new scholarship will also be con-
tested for Sept "a under the same
condition. The competition is limited
to no state or section of the country,
and deserving young men who have
become rather proficient in the ele-
mentary subjects named, are given
two opportunities. which may result
in securing a high-grade technical ed
ucation in the leading mechanical
school of the Southern States.

BOLTS DEADLY DEED.
Continued from Eighth Page.
The Curious Crowds Gather.


Under the direction of Sergeant Pow
ell. Patrolman Knox took possession of
the premises and kept back the curious
crowd of spectators that Immediately
began. TO gather. Even in the rain
that continued for three hours after
the death of the man and girl, colored
men, women and children from the
surrounding country tramped across
the sodden fields and wet wharves to
gaze in the fascination of horror upon
the scene of death.
1t was some hours before the-coroner
could be notified of the deaths and
reach the spot, and during these hours
the crowds continued to ply uninter-
ruptedly between the little office on
the wharves ana the homes of their
members.
AS soon as Coroner Keller arrived he
turned over the body of the girl to
her parents and directed the removal
of Roe's body to the undertaking es-
Enlistment of Fox & Weeks, where
it was prepared for burial.
The man has been a Waterman for
the Ocean Steamship Company for the
past five or six years and bore an ex-
cellent reputation with his. employers
and all who knew him. He was steady,
Industrious and reliable.
Roe was about 3S or. 40 years old and
came to Savannah from Bryan. county.
There he was, for a time in business
for himself and afterwards, experien-
cling business reverses, was overseer
for one of the rice planters along the
Ogeechee river.
Relatives Live in BuIIOch.
He was born in Bulloch county,
where two brothers, James and Will
liam Roe, and several sisters are now
living. The coroner will communicate
at once with these relatives in regard
to the disposition of the body. Since
living in Savannah Roe had had
room at the home of Henry K. Glenn
ems, at SIG Bolton street, west.
peculiar feature of the death of
Roe and the little girl is that it was
inflicted by the last thunderbolt that
fell from the clouds.

West Pointer carried himself more

future home of Gen. Wheaton. He is
now in that city. He will be succeeded
