100 MEET DEATH
IN PARIS TUNNEL
Underground Train, Loaded
With People Burst Into
Flames.

Paris, Aug. 11.-Eight-four
bodies have been recovered and
the death list probably will ex-
coed one hundred in the under
ground railway disaster which
occurred here last night.
The accident which occurred
on the Metropolitan Electric rail
way assumed the proportions of
an awful catastrophe during the
early hours today when more
than four score of bodies of the
burned and suffocated victims
were removed from the sub
teranean passage.
Crowds of weeping men, wom-
nm and children we're struggling
around the tunnel entrance in an
effort to recognize their missing
relatives and friends. Most of
the victims are from the middle
and working classes, as the trains
were carrying them home from
their work.
Although the accident occurred
at s O'Clock last evening, the
officials and firemen were unable,
until early this morning, to des-
cend into the tunnel, owing to the
binding clouds of smoke from
the burning train. Frequent at
tempts we're made by heroic
volunteers whom it was neces-
sary to rescue, half suffocated
and carry to the hospitals.

Summer Outings.

Have you been to the seashore
or to the mountains or to the
springs?
If you haven't, certainly you
realize that you are not in it, for
nearly everybody else has.
More peop1e-a larger per
cent of people-have gone on
the annual fro1ic or vacation
this year perhaps than ever be-
fore in the history of the country.
Many people seem to do bust
ness and make money with the
paramount objectof of taking an
annual summer outing.
So many business men are
away from their business during
the months of July and August
that the man who stays at home
is greatly handicapped by the
absence of those with whom he
deals.

Experiences as a Convict at

State Farm, Ga, August IL
Miss Mamie DeCris, no longer
at the mercy Of Allagood, boldly
declared today, under the pro-
lection of the official investigation
that it was not because she had
been impertinent to the wife of
the warden that she was whipped,
but because Convict Warden All.
agood made indecent proposals
and because she refused to obey
him that she was beaten more
cruelty than any female convict
has ever been whipped in the his
tory of the convict camps.

Della VS.. Fitzgerald.

One of the best played ball
games we have seen this year
was between Oci1la and Fitzger-
aid on the Fitzgerald diamond
Tuesday evening.
Aside from some unpopular
rulings of Umpire O. Y. Elder
and a little friction that came
near ending the game in the
eighth inning. The game was q
great one from beginning to end,
and the sides very evenly
matched.
Ocilla made two runs in the
ninth inning that put the score
even, and 4. An extra inning
was played in the hope of break
ing the tie but neither side could
score.
The grand stand was pretty
we'll filled, and among the mum.
Der we're many of the enthusias.
