Youth Attempts to Scare Brother and

Near Tifton, Ca, Thursday after
noon, three sons of J. R. Owens were
returning from a neighbor's, where
they had been picking. cotton, when
the two smaller ones, Barney, aged
about Is, and a younger brother, ran
on ahead of the older boy, Jack, aged
about II.
It was near dark, and when, within
about two hundreds yards of the
house, Barney told his brother to go
on and he would hide and give Jack
a scare. He concealed himself be-
hind fallen tree near the road, and
as Jack came along, he made slight
noise. The older boy could just catch
a glimpse of sleeve and part Of his
hat below the log, and thought in the
dusk it was a polecat. He supposed
both his brothers were at the house
long before, indeed, took no thought
of them at all. He always carried
gun, and raising the weapon fired at

portant increases were 11,423,446 in
commerce and labor, s6O,7sS,5SO in

Unusual expenditures were $00,000,-

INSUL1ER SHOT DEAD.
lrate Husband Goes Cunning for Citi
zen Who Called at His Home
During His Absence.

Henry A. videtto, we'll known and
popular citizen Of Augusta" Ca, is
dead in the city hospital from wound
in the spine, and H. D. Chapman, as
sistant ticket agent at the unicn de-
pot, is in Jail, charged with the shoot
ing, all of whicn is the result OF an
insult offered by Videtto to Mrs. Chap
man Friday morning.
Videtto went to the Chapman home
while the head of the family was al
work and made improper advances to
the pretty young matron Of not more
than twenty-one years of age.
She told her husband of the episode
AMI in an alteration that followed in
the store OF the dead man Friday
night the shooting took place.
In an ante-mortem statement made
at the hospital, Videtto admitted hav'
ing gone to the home of Mrs. Chap
man and made the proposals alleged.
He said, however, that he did it on
account of loving messages brought
him by Mrs. Chapman's servant and
which the servant said were sent Dy
Mrs. Chapman.
He said the appointment for him to
call was made by this servant. He
admits that when he called Mrs. Chap
man repelled him Indignantly and de-
MED that she had ever sent any mes.
sages. He. then apologized and ueg-
ged her to say nothing to her husband.
Chapman says that he was sum-
moned to his father in laws house
from his work Friday morning and
found his wife there very hysterical.
! She to- him what had occurred and
her statement comedies with that OF
Videtto, except that Mrs. Chapman
claims that she faced Videtto and the
servant and that the servant denied
absolutely ever having given Videtto
any message.
Chapman says he consulted with his
relatives and went to Videtto's store
to horsewhip him. Videtto admitted
what he had done and offered full and
complete apolciy, but Chapman insist
ed on the horsswhip.
Videtto says he started to telephone
the police and was shot in the back.
Chapman says he thought that Videtto
was going to his desk for gun. vi
! detto requested in his ante-mortem
statement that Chapman not be prose
cuted and Chapman regrets the trou.
ole.
Videtto leaves a family with chill
dren almost as old as Mrs. Chapman.
Both parties to the shooting are well
known and popular. .

VOTERS "scRATcRED' JUDGES.
Peculiar Variation in Figures Cast For
Georgia judiciary.

Consolidation was completed Thurs
day by the secretary Of state Of the
returns for superior court judges, vot-
ed for in the recent Georgia state
election.
Judge J. H. Martin, of the Oconee
circuit, led the ticket with 61,O4l
votes, the lowest vote given was for
Judge L. S. Roam, Of the Stone Noun
tain circuit, 60,432.
Returns from all of the 137 counties
had been received during the day, and
these gave the total vote for Secretary
of Stare Philip Cook, who led the tick,
ct, as 1896.
Attorney General John c. Hart re-
ceived 6S,024 votes; Comptroller Gen.
eral William A. Wright, 6S,0S0; State
Treasurer R. E. Park, 67,9S3; Commits
sioner Of Agriculture o. 3. Stevens,
67,926; State School Commissioner w.
B. Merritt, 67,93O; Prison Commission
er Joseph S. Turner, e7,9S7; Chief
Justice Thomas J. Simmons, 65,962;
Associate Justice William H. Fisl, 65,.
939; Associate Justice Joseph R. La
mar, e5,sO3; Associate Justice Beverly
D. Evans, 65,906.
Secretary Cook does not consolidate
the vote for governor, as that is done
by the state legislature. 1t is under
stood, however, that the governor re.
ceived about $4,000 or $1,000 votes.
The total vote for the state ticket
will amount to about 10000.
It will be noticed that the vote for
the superior court judges is nearly
10000 behind the ticket, which is rath-
er a remarkable detection in view Of
the fact that none of them had any op-
position. It can be accounted for only
on the theory that many voters
thought they were expected to vote
only for the judge Of their own cir
,t1it and scratched all the others. This
becomes more evident when it is con-
sidered that each superior court judge
led the ticket in his own circuit, but
fell behind in the others. In Irwin
county, for instance, Judge Martin re-
ceived 679 votes, while none Of the
other Judge were voted for at all.
Another interesting fact is that in
Gilmer county, which went for Hon.
N. A. Morris in the primary, Judge
Gober led the ticket among the judges
by 444 votes,
The total vote on the constitutional
amendment regarding local taxation
for school purposes in the 1877 coun-
ties was 3O,555 for ratification and
20,411 against ratification, 6, majority
Of 1914 in favor Of the amendment.
An Interesting fact in this connection
is that Whitfield is the only county in
the state in which there was not an
adverse vote to any Of the four consti-
tutional amendments. They were CIV
en- in that county total Of 9S7 votes.

Liao-Yang have been appToxlmateo'
