out fpr meeting to be held on No.
Yember 10, and number OF prom!-
nent cotton growers throughout the

that the meeting was intended for

III G. Hughes, an engineer on tiasAu-.
gusta Southern railroad, met instant
death at PeDnille one day last week.

Augusta bound passenger train. He
was talking to Engineer Edmund B.
Thomas, who was in charge Of the en-
gine. AS tie train moved, it Is
Thought, a pistol fell from the signal

and was discharged. The bali entered
the left side Of Mr.. Hughes body
about midway passing upwards, and
either cutting important blood vessels
or entering tho heart. Mr.. Hughes
fell from the engine to the ground,
and in falling his left hand aud arm
were thrown beneath the wheels and
were crashed. Death was practically
instantaneous. The revolver was the
property Of Engineer Thomas.
