MARIETTA, GA. THURSDAY MORNING, MAR. Il 1904,

Frank James, a we'll known colored
man who has worked for the Marietta
Chair Company for many years as one
of their trustworthy and best hands, a
few weeks ago was trimming the nail
on his big toe and accidentally cut the
toe. In a few days blood poison set in
and his toe had to be amputated This
did not seem to climate the virus and
other symptoms began to manifest
themselves. Drs. Nolan, Malone and
Manget, on last Thursday night, found
it necessary to cut his foot off. He is
still suffering great deal, but it is
hoped he will recover.
Although there has been some slight
apprehension that the recent cold snap
would damage the peach crop, this has
been dissipated and the outlook for a
fine crop this year is very promising.
The fruit gives promise of being I'M
usually fine this season owing to the
fact that the trees bore very little last
year, thus preserving their strength for
this crop. The buds are fine, healthy
ones that will produce an excellent
specimen o. fruit if there is no backset
before maturity. The local fruit men
talk very encouragingly of the pros
poets and feel highly pleased. The
peach business amounts to a thing of
much Importance in this locality.

Labor is scarce and often times work
has to be delayed on that account.
Farm labor especially Is scarce. The
S. A. J.. Railroad grade. the electric
car line grade and the Bull Sluce dam
have largely drawn off the labor. These
public works will be completed this
year, but not soon enough to supply
the labor needed. In Marietta the
hands are few and far between, but
vagrancy is practiced by some worth
less negroes who refuse work when it is
rendered them.
