Suicide Prevented.

The startling announcement that a
preventive of suicide had been found
will interest many. A run down sys-

cedes suicide and something has been
found that will prevent that condition
which makes suicide likely. At the

j. @. Trefzer Crushed To Death
In the Freight Yards In Atlanta

| The sad rews of the death of Mr..
}. u. Trefzer, was wired to Mr.. f. G..
FREEZER, bis brother, the j.weler here in
Union, Monday early in the afternoon.
MIR. +. q. TrefZer and wife left on the
fitst train for Atlanta to bring the re-
mains OF the deceased to Union for in
terment. The following account of the
tragedy is from the Atlanta Journal:
j. q. Trefzer, a fireman on the W.
and A. road, who boarded at 30 Chapel
street, was this afternoon shortly after
IL O'Clock crushed to death between
Engine No. 154 and coal car. The
accident occurred about so yards north
of the w. and A shops.
Engine No. 1G4 had just taken on
load OF coal and was moving north pre-
paratory to hitching on to 1890 freight
for chattanooga when Trefzer met his
death. He was standing in the gang
way between the tender and the engine
proper, leaning out, it seems, TO see if
tho engine could pass the coal cars
ahead. The space between the engns
ana the coal cars was very small at this
point and in some way Trefzer was
caught by projecting post on a coal
car and pulled in between the boiler
tank and the car. With cry of pain
he was crushed to almost instant death
and hurled to the ground before Engineer
w. A. Woolbright could realize what
was happening.
Trefzsr was barely alive when
reached and died before he could be re
moved TO the round house, He never
regained consciousness. His head was
badly 'crushed and fatal Injuries
were received in the chest. The body
was this afternoon removed to 30 CHAPEL
street, where the funeral services will
probably occur.
Trefzer was about 30 years old and a
German by birth. lie had no relatives
here but left one brother who resides in
Union, 5. g. Trefz,r was a NJ ,son and
belonged also to the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotlve Firemen. He had been in the
employ of the Western and Atlantic
road for about two years. Previous to
this time he was fireman on the Sea.
board Air Line.
The brother of the dead man has been
notified OF his death aud the funeral ar.
engagements will not be made until he is
heard from.

In glancing through an exchange last

probably be shock to many people to
learn of her death. She taught in our

with loneliness, hunger and
threadbare clothing. Homeless
people are merely unwise people
(some OF them). The owner of
a beautiful home may be homeless
tomorrow and all because OF his
own fault-neglect of insuring.
A man is never left homeless

the flames consume his entire

ROYAL Italian Band.

Many musicians and music lovers heard
Ellery's Royal Italian band at the Jeffef-
son last night and those who did not at
tend the concert missed rare treat in
deed.
Creatores band was at the Jefferson q
few weeks ago and Banda Rosa followed.
Both of these organizations won great
applause. but the band last night sur
passes in many respects, all similar or
CARNATIONS that have visited this city in
recent years.
It rendered a rich and varied programme
IN a style that was almost faultless.
The band is composed of first class
artists and they play IN perfect tune.
The ensemble work could not be improy-
cd upon. while in tone color and in spirit
there was little to be desired.
The overture to Mignon was one of the
finest numbers on the programme anc
judging from the applause It was one OF
the most highly appreciated. Cav. Emilio
Rivela, the director. is full of fire. and
is wonderfully magnetic.
The band will give matinee today
and will conclude its engagement with =
concert tonight.

Prospect for New City Building Is
Very Bright.

pect for new city building for Selma

years ago plans drawn by Chamberlain
& Co. of Birmingham were accepted BY
the city council and the legislature gave
authority for the issuance of bonds TO

the building. There has been a hitch in
floating the bonds because 1t could not be
satisfactorily demonstrated that the
building could be erected for $4,000. r.
T. Manley. a well knswn contractor of
Atlanta, accompanied Mr.. Chamberlain
to the city today and negotiations are
pending which will likely be completed
by Monday which will ensure the erec-
tion of the city hall.
The proposed building is three stories
high with building for the fire depart
ment two stories high In the rear. 1t
contains market house on the first floor.
the city officers rooms and the lookup
on the second floor and large city hall
to be used as an armory by the military
companies on the third floor
