TO ExTEND TO NASHVILLE.
Citizens of Tint Place Soon Raised
800 Bonus.

Sparks, Ga, April ia conference
of the citizens of Nashville with Mr..
b. B. Gray of the Gray Lumber Com
pany was held Tuesday for the pur-
pose of having an understanding with
reference to the building of Mr.. Gray's
road into Nashville. Mr.. Gray sub
mitted a written proposition in which
he agreed to build his road into Nash
vile by Nov l of this year and oper-
ate a double daily passenger service
from Nashville to Lelaton, If the
citizens of Nashville would give
his company a bonus of $4,000. This
amount was raised in about fifteen
minutes. The agreements were all
signed up and work on the road will
be commenced at once.
The distance from Leliaton to Nash
willie is eighteen miles, and with thir-
teen miles of the road already built
the remaining five miles necessary to
put the road into Nashville can be built
easily within the time agreed upon.
The distance from Leliaton to Della
is twenty miles and Mr.. Gray's road
is already completed to within three
miles of the latter place, and he pro-
poses to extend his line to Ocilla this
fall. At Ocilla the new road will con-
meet with the Brunswick and Birning
ham; at Leliaton a connection will be
had with the Atlantic Coast Line; and
at Nashville with the Nashville and
Sparks RAILROAD, which will give
Sparks and this section a direct out
let to Savannah and Brunswick
Quite a great deal of travel and freight
goes from this section to these cities.
The consummation of this deal also
settles the question of the South Geor-
gia Company. making Sparks the
northern terminus of its line. 1t has
recently f1oated about $250,000 worth
of bonds for extending and i'm
proving It's road. Its line already
runs to within five or six miles of
Sparks Thus Sparks will become
a railroad center of considerable i'm
nortance.

DYING IN THE WOODS.
w. A. Brown Was Found Near
Brunswfck-OtherN News.

BrunHWlck-ONneT news
Brunswick, Ga, April lev. A.
Brown. a cancer doctor, who has been
in Brunswick about seven months,
was found in the woods this after
noon. a few miles from the city. in an
unconscious condition. He was
brought to the city, but, without ever
regaining his senses, he died at 6
o'clock
The exact cause of his death is not
known. The physicians differ in their
opinion, some thinking that he was
poisoned while others think that he
died OF apopleXy.
Negroes living in the neighborhood
Of where he was found report that
they had heard grooming for two or
three days; and this is what attract
ed the two boys to the scene where
the man was found. From all appear
ances he had been there since Mon
day, as his clothes were wet and muddy
from the heavy rain on that day 1t
is the general opinion that he was
foully dealt with. The police depart
ment is investigating the case.
Bailey Chance, a white man, VINO
has been in the Glynn county Jail for
several days for insanity, is starving
himself to death, and it is thought
that the man will not live many more
days.
Saturday Sheriff Berrie thought it
might be better to place him some
where else and he was taken out of
JAIL but he at once grew violent and
it took two men to control him. 1t
was necessary to again place him in
Jail and now he seems to entertain the
idea that his enemies are trying to
poison him and refuses to eat any
thing The sheriff has endeavored to
get the man to eat and has offered him
many delicacies, but he absolutely re-
fused to swallow a mouthful.
