A COLLISION AT GRIFFIN.
Dixie Flyer Ran Into Open switch
and Smashed Freight Cars.

Dixie Flyer Ran Into Open switch
and Smashed Freight Cars.
Griffin, Ga, April 1.-THE Dixie Fly
er ran into an open switch in the Gen.
trail yard at this place tonight at
o'clock and collided with several
freight cars which were standing on
the side track. None of the passengers
were injured save few scratches, but
all were badly frightened and shaken
up. Engineer John Ramsay was badly
scalded on the right arm and bruised
on the right thigh. Fireman Jim Green
received severe sprain in the left arm
and several bad bruises on his body as
he jumped from the engine and rolled
down the steep embankment. The men
were carried to the office of DR.. M F.
Carson, where their wounds were
dressed and while not serious, We're
very painfully hurt 1t is not known
how the accident occurred, but it is
believed that some one tempered with
the switches. Engineer Ramsay says
that when he first saw the switch,
white light was showing but the dam
ger signal was displayed when his en-
CINE was too close to stop
it before running into the
open switch. Number one had
passed over it about thirty minutes be-
fore and the switch was properly set
at that time. The ponderous engine
first struck a car loaded with ferti-
lizers and the car was crushed like a
cockleshell and reduced to splinters.
The next car was empty and turned
over upon the main track. The engine
then Dlowed it's way half through an
other car before it was stopped. 1t
was badly demolished and almost hid
den from view by the debris, but for
the fact that the engineer had slowed
up while running through the yards
the loss of life would have been great,
as there were large number of pas
sengers on board. The track was
cleared by $50 and the train contin-
ued on to Atlanta.
The fireman will be sent to his
home in Atlanta tomorrow morning,
and the engineer went down to Ma
con at 10 o'clock.

EXPOSITION PROCLAMATION.
City of Savannah,

City of Savannah,
Mayors Office, April l, 1902.
Tc the People of Savannah:
Wednesday, April 16, has been set
aside by the managers of the South
Carolina and West India Exposition at
Charleston as Savannah Day. In
view Of the strong personal relations
that exist between the people of the
Two cities, their large business inter
couse, and the kindly sentiments that
have always prevailed between the
communities, it is desired that Savan-
nah give evidence of its appreciation of
the efforts of the exposition to adver-
tise the South and promote its trade
interests, through this exposition, by
making Savannah Day one of the
greatest if not the very greatest, of
the special occasions provided for by
the managers.
To this end arrangements have been
made with the Plant System for special
rates of 81 for the round trip, good for
three days, and ample facilities will
be afforded by that company for the
safe and speedy transportation of as
many thousands as may desire to visit
Charleston. 1t is hoped that the peo-
pie of Savannah will generally avail
themselves of this opportunity to en-
Joy the pleasures and benefits of the
exposition and at the same time give
practical form to their Endorsement of
the labors of its managers in behalf of
the South and of their brotherly love
for their sister city of South Carolina.

MAN IN A MASK.
Held Up Clerks and Robbed store Mt
Mystic, Ga.

MEStlcy OH.
Irwinville, Ca, April 11.-Last night
at Mystic, Ga, four miles from here,
a man with a mask on entered B. Z.
Wilcox's store. The clerks. Sam Will
cox. Senator Wilcox's brother, and
young Dismuke had just balanced
their books and counted the cash for
the days sales, when the man stepped
in at the door, threw his pistol on the
two young men and commenced shoot
ing. One bullet passed through the
crown of Dismuke's hat.
Both clerks ran for the back door,
and when. they did the bold robber ran
to the desk and got the bag of money
and broke for the door.
BY this time Mr. Dismuke had drawn
his pistol and opened fire upon the
would-be murderer and robber and
fired three times in rapid succession.
but unfortunately none took effect and
the man escaped unhurt, with his
booty.
The community is wild with excite
ment and men are trying to pursue the
person with blood hounds If he is
caught he will scarcely see the county
Jail. The frequency of these crimes at
Mystic are alarming. Not long since
Mrs. Russell and her brother were
knocked down and robbed. On last Sat-
urday night the Triton and Northeast
ern Railroad depot was burglarized
and then burned. The citizens are de-
termined to step these crimes. and if
they can catch the guilty party, il is
the impression that it will be some
time before they will be at liberty to
90 the like again.

SHIELDED ORANGE GROVES.
ted the Complete Success of His
Experiment.

Mr.. John b. StetsOn Has DemOnstra-
ted the Complete Success of His
Experiment.
DeLand, Fla. April 1.-THE Orange
Growers of Florida have been watching
the result of the large experiments
with sheds over orange groves at this
place. Many have believed that the
growth under sheds would be spindling,
and that should the trees ever bear it
would be fruit of the hot house kind,
light in color and insipid in flavor. 1t
has been claimed that the insects were
much worse, and that the sheds were
no protection, as trees had been killed
under them by cold, and would not
grow in summer because of too much
shade. Time and careful attention has
settled all of these inquiries, and it is
believed that the question as to the
success of shielded orange groves is
settled. Most of the interest has been
conferred on the John B. Stetson groves
at this place, not only because he has
more acres covered than any half dozen
people in Florida, but because of the
many forms of sheds that he has put
uP' DUi MS LIE past year ali VI MS
trees have done well. During the
summer they put on a good growth.
During the past winter, though the
weather was very severe and many
times the thermometer went down into
the tWenties. his trees have not suf-
fered, and now they are covered with
bloom. Many that bloomed some
weeks since have set the fruit we'll and
every indication points to a fine full
cropl
Last season his pet grove bore
very full. and the fruit is as perfect
in color and flavor as any ever grown
in the state. AT the last state fair
beautiful specimens of grape fruit
were shown by the most noted grow
ers in the state, but none of it was
better or finer than that now hanging
in the Stetson groves. They have the
silk-like appearance that is so attrac-
tive, and which brings the highest
price. The shed industry is new and
it has all to be learned, not only as to
the best forms of shed, but as to best
methods of heating, cultivating and
fertilization. In working this out Mr..
Stetson has been a great help to all
of the growers in the state. He has
demonstrated that he cannot only raise
the fruit, but can take his own time
for shipping. The difference in the
price between December and April or
May is often from 81 to SO per box,
which he can realize without danger
or trouble. Mr.. Stetson is so much
pleased with the results that he has
already arranged to put about thirty
acres more under sheds this summer,
which will make about 100 acres on
his place under cover. His pineapples
under sheds are a success and very
profitable. So extensive have his OPP
erations been in this matter that he
has erected his own saw mill to cut
the material for his sheds.

Since the completion of the Macon,

HEAVY LOSS AT COLUMBUS.

Columbus, Ga. April lit was not

last nights calamity by fire was real
lied. Two blocks recently Of the man
ufacturing district, now in ashes, tell
the grim story. The firemen fought
the fire the entire night, but the de-
partment was inadequate to cope with
the situation. Had the wind been
blowing at even a moderate rate, the
entire city south of Ninth street would
have been at the mercy of the flames.
The second fire, which broke out about
midnight, was in Friedlander's bagging
factory. Only a firewall separated this
from the Poe warehouse with $500
bales of cotton, which was saved al
most miraculously.
Almost a hopeless tumble of tele-
graph, electric light and telephone
wires throughout the fire district was
restored to something like order to-
day. Before Z o'clock this morning
the Central Railroad had timber on
the ground and a force of hands re-
building the approach to the Mobile

was burned. A force of hands is work
