WRECKERS FRUSTRATED
 BY ENGINEER HAYNES

A serious wreck on the Central of Geor- gia railway Monday night was probably averted by the presence of mind of En- gineer James Hawes of the Southern rall- way. He discovered seven crossties on the Central tracks near Weems where tho two roads parallel each other-a very dangerous place for serious wreck.
 Engineer Hawes was on Southern irain No. S6 which left Birmingham at G.50 o'clock. When lis train reached Weens the headlight showed a number of cross ties on the Central tracks. He stopped his train and went back with the other members of the crew and removed the crossties.
 telegram was sent to Birmingham notifying the Southern railway officials of the crossties in order to warn them

and give an opportunity of watching for any other attempts to wreck trains. It Is believed that the intention of the wreck- CTS was to place the ties on the Southl ern tracks and wreck Southern passenger train S6 but that the wreekers made a mistake in which tracks belonged to tho Southern.
 Engineer Hawes ssd other members of the train crew stated that they thought 'hey heard some one running through the underbrush as they approached the place where the tbs were across the rails
 The place chosen by the wouid-be wreckers was exceptionally dangerous It !s on grade and as Il usual thing trains are movlpg under great headwdy speed. \ wreck on either road in all probabl- itS would have bio 'ked the other track, for the two tracks are like double t1ack

Not for Politics.

To the Editor of the Age-Herald
 An impression has gone forth that the Commercial Club rooms are being used for political meetings. This impression is erroneous and doubtless grows out of the fact that a hall directly over the Com mercial Club rooms is used for such pur- poses.
 There will be no political meetings of any character held in the Commercial Club rooms. Yours very truly,
