People of County TO Vote on It's
Adoption Feb. II.
Waycross. Ga, Jan. 1.-Feb. 81 has
been decided upon as the date for hold
ing the election for the purpose of rat
flying the new school law for Ware
as passed by the last Legislature.
1t is proposed in this one that a
levy of not more than one-fourth of
one per cent, be made upon all prop
erty in Ware county for the improve
ment of the schools in the county out
side of Waycross. This is equal to
% cents on each 500 of property. There
are 2.44O children in Ware county out
side of Waycross of school age, 2,03i
whites and 400 colored. The number
that have entered school is 229 whites
and 259 colored, making a total of
LASS, leaving 1853 out of the schools
Hon. Lem Johnson is heartily in
favor of the measure. He saws if It
is ratified by the people it will mean
an increase of about 81, 1000 to the school
fund, which at present is only $4,000.
The object in getting this bill through
is to improve the educational faclli-
ties in the county, and provide for a
nine months school instead of four as
as present. In this matter the country
people will have II all to themselves.
The law does not affect the city, or the
present splendid school system in
vogue here. The tax is to be levied
on all property outside of Waycross.
two-thirds vote will be required to
ratify the law.

THE L. & n. TAX CASE.
Petition Against Controller Wright
TO he Heard To-day.

Atlanta, Jan. There will come up
in the United States Court tomorrow
the case of the Louisville and Nash
Vile Railroad Company. against Con-
troller General William A. Wright, pc
tition for injunction to prevent him
from taking steps to collect taxes on
$1,500,O00 of the stock of the Western
of Alabama Railroad, owned by the
Georgia Railroad. The interest of the
Louisville and Nashville is due to the
fact that under the lease it has to pay
all Of the Georgia Railroads taxes.
The case will be argued by the Attor-
ney General for the state and by King
and Spalding for the road. The Cen
trail of Georgia owns a like amount
of stock of the Western of Alabama,
but its case is somewhat different as
the stock is held to secure an issue of
bonds for which the Central Trust
Company of New York is trustee. The
Controller General has been endeavor-
ing to collect taxes on this stock for
the last thirteen years.

suage Grief over Fathers Death.
Eatonton. Ga, Jan. News has just
been received here that NJ. r. Hudson,
recent traffic agent of the Georgia Rail
road. committed suicide this morning
at his home about four miles from
town. 1t is said he arose from his
bed. wrapped himself i'm a blanket be-
fore dressing. and standing before the
fire, while his wife slept, stuck the
muzzle of a shotgun in his mouth and
blew out his brains. No explanation
for the terrible deed was left by him,
and the numberless reports flying
around assigning reasons for the trag-
edy are, no doubt, speculations. He
was the only son OF Hon. John r. Hud-
son, who a few days ago fell in the
fire and was burned to death, an ac-
count of which appeared in the Morn
ings News. At the death of an aunt,
Mrs. Augusta Moseley, more than
year ago, he inherited her property,
consisting of some cash and 1900 or
800 acres of land. At the death of
his father, a few days ago. he fell heir
TO his property, some $500 acres of land.
Fortune seemed to be playing into his
hands, from the standpoint of the
world, but with all this happiness and
peace of mind and heart were wanting,
and hence the tragic end Hudson

at his home in Eatonton. The old gen

Marshall Hudson had gone to Eaton

which was left to him. Instead of
doing this. however, it is said he spent
most of his time in grieving over his

brought on by his dependency, he
was dead. Mr.. Hudson is survived
by his wife and two sons. The body
