that he is willing to furnish $1,000
himself. He is so confident that good
money can be made out of the prop

money and build the plant and get it
on a paying basis before he asks for
one cent of salary. This shows that
the gentleman. with his long expert

be profitable.
/ It is said that there is good profit
in tanning leather and that Hatties
burg is we'll located for such bus

Ter at a point eight miles south of
this city. The engineer reports that
he saw the man on the track ahead of
proper signal and that the man obeyed
the signal. The train proceeded at
full speed and when it was about to
pass the man he suddenly stepped
upon the track with the inevitable re-
suit named. The body was rolled be-
meath the ponderous wheels of the fly
ing locomotive and mashed into a
shapeless mass. One leg was severed
from his body and his head and face
crushed into an unrecognizable condi-
ton. The body of the unfortunate
man was later brought to Laurel
| where it was turned over to an I'M
dertaker to prepare for burial. Up to
present writing the officials have been
unable to ascertain the mans home
