BRAINS FOR SANITY

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Dec. 22.-Por-
tions of the brains of George Rhodius,
a millionaire who died a few days ago
in a sanitarium for the treatment Of
nervous diseases, today were taken to
the laboratory of a pathologist by au-
hority of the probate court and mis-

position of Rhodius' fortune.
Alienists have been divided as to
whether or not Rhodius was insane
since his alleged abduction to louis
vile three years ago and his mar
riage there to a woman of this city
known Elmer Dare. The woman's
appeal to the Indiana supreme court
from a lower courts annulment of the
marriage on the ground that Rhodius
was insane is now pending.
The contents of Rhodius' will are not
to be made known until after mis- fu-
neral late today, but one of the dead
mans relatives already has filed in
court a complaint that he was de-
mented from paresis and in the con-
troll of conspirators when he made the
will.

RIVERSIDE ACADEMY
CLOSES FIRST TERM

GAINESVILLE, Ga, Dec. 22.-On Sat
urday the Riverside Military academy
closed for the Christmas holidays after
a most prosperous term. This marked the
end of the first term of the second annual
session of the school, and all of the stu
dents left after an evening of unusual
pleasure afforded by the student band,
which has been under the direction of
Capt NJ. M. Coles, former musical d.
rector in the United States army.
On the evening of December 1, the Pi
Delta Pi fraternity gave an informal
dance to some of the young ladies of the
city, and it was an event of great pleas
ure.
Another dance occurred at the same
time in the armory of the Gambler Horse
Guards, and it was attended by good
many cadets. Haugney's orchestra, of
Athens, furnished music for this occa-
sion, and it was perhaps the best of the
season.
The new barracks has been crowded
throughout the fall term, and since
Company l Gardner has added the War
ner home to the school property, there
will be enough available space to receive
about ten additional students.

QUIET REIGNS IN
DEVALL'S BLUFF, ARK

DEvALLs BLUFF. Ark. Dec. A.-After
4 night of apprehension and unrest
among both whites and blacks, better
feeling prevails here today, and, 1t Is
believed, no serious clash between the
races will occur. Excitement was os-
casioned by the killing in the city jail
of George Bailey, a negro who shot and
dangerously wounded Matt Todd, white
man, Saturday night.
The Jail was attacked by mob of &c
men, who emptied their revolvers into
the negro's body. Yesterday the blacks
held a mass meeting, and denounced the
lynching. Fearful of an outbreak, many
white citizens armed themselves and pa
troled the town last night. No untoward
incident happened, however, and the bet
ter class of negroes have returned to
their homes and farms.
Sheriff Streeton and several deputies are
here,

WILL BUILD SHOP
AT STATE FARM
Prison Commission Will Make
Wet weather Provision for
ConViCtS' Work

The state prison board has decided to
erect at the state farm in Milledgeville
a combination blacksmith and carpenter
shop as the beginning of it's policy to
ultimately have the farm convicts pro-
ducing all that they themselves need.
This shop is moreover intended to pro-
vide employment all the time for the
weaker convicts, and to give employment
in bad weather to all the convicts avail
able
Chairman Hutchens says the board es-
Inmates the cost of the shop at about ST.
500, including building and equipment. The
building will be rough, but serviceable,
lie says. The farm has sufficient proceeds
from it's recent cotton crop to defray the
expense Work on the building will be
started soon after the first of the year.
