aud asked him to get bill through

anne ended by him. This bill is the
same as find printed in the Acts of

few days before Mr.. Earle went to
Columbia to attend the session of
1906, l asked him to insert a point
on Keowee and point on White

few days after the General Assembly
convened Mr.. Earle sent me copy
of the bill amended as | had re-
quested, to wit: Mentioning two

in the bill as printed in the Acts of

Good job..for Brave Sheriff.

Washington, December 27.--The
following letter of the President to
Attorney General Bonaparte was
given out at the White House last
week:
"Wasbmgton, Dec. 17.-Dear Mr..
Bonaparte Some three years ago,
Sheriff j. L. Merrill, of Carroll
county, Georgia, lost his chance for
reelection by his action in beating
off mob of several hundred white
people who were trying to take
negro out of Jail and put him to
death. Sheriff Merrill and his depu-
ties fired on the mob, killing and
wounding several men and beating
the others off. Because of this he
was defeated for reelection. Con-
gressman Adamson brought the mat
ter to my attention, saying that he
hated to see man who had done
such a service as public official
defeated because of the very faS2
that he had rendered the servicey
He told me that Governor Terrell
had offered the man a place, the best
he had to give, which carried sal
ary of $50 per month. l told the
Congressman l thought could beat
that, and got him place ak 81, 200 a
year as custodian of the grounds of
the Federal prison at Atlaptap. I
hear he has done well. If h, hs
done well, can't we give him pfo-

MRS. FRED ". AULD BADLY HURT
THROWN FROM SOUTHERN TRAIN NEAR
MADISON CHRISTMAS EVENING.

The Atlanta Georgian of Decem-
Der 27 contained the following arti-
Gle, which will be read with deep
regret my the many Oconee friends
of Mrs. Fred w. Auld, of Elberton,
Ca, who, before marriage, was Miss
Lizzie Werner, of Retreat:
"After being thrown from South
ern railway train two miles beyond
Madison, S. c., and lying for over
two hours in the freezing weather in
an unconscious condition, Mrs. Fred
w. Auld, of Elberton, is now lyi
in the Presbyterian Hospital in AT.
lanta, suffering from cuts, bruises and
fractured arm, and at present the
surgeons cannot say whether or not
she will live.
"Mrs. Auld and her husband were
returning to their home Tuesday,
after visiting friends in Westminster,
and when near Madison Mrs. Aud
started from the coach in which she
and her husband were riding for an
other coach to see her brother.
"Whiie on the platform between
the two cars, lurch of the train
threw her off, and it was not for
some time that she was missed. When
her husband discovered that she was
not on the train he got off at the
next station, when, securing horse
and buggy, he went back along theA
railroad track, and two hours after
wards he found his wife prostrate
and bleeding on the ground.
"She was brought into Atlanta on
Wednesday afternoon and was taken
to the hospital in an ambulance. Her
condition is dangerous and she may
not recover. In addition to her in
ternal injuries Mrs. Auld is suffering
from the exposure"

Impoverished Soil

impoverished soil, like impov-

you need to fertilize it and give
it the rich, red corpuscles that
