SHOWED GUN TO THE COURT.
Pulled Tt From Pocket and Was
Bound Over For Trial,

Clayton Aron, well-known negro
character of the city, was on trial
before the mayor for disorderly con-
duct, the charge being that he had
whipped his wife.
In his statement in defense of his
conduct Aron set up the plea that
he had only defended himself when
his wife had tried to shoot, and to
impress this view of the fracas on
the court reached in his pocket,
brought forth from it's inner depth
a 38 pearl handle revolver and laid
it on the table with the remark:
Here's de very pistol she tried to
do it with"
When the mayor recovered from
his amazement he amazed the pris-
oner by binding him over to the city
court on a charge of carrying con-
eealed weapon.
Moral: If you go to court with a
pistol in your pocket keep it there
and do not offer it in evidence.

A $500, 100000 ENTERPRISE
Dawson Citizen Becomes Secretary
and Treasurer of Piedmont Port
land Cement Company.

Idnu cement company.
1t will be of interest to his many
friends both in this city and else
where to know that Mr.. w. H. Da-
Wis, one of Dawson's best known and
most successful business men, has be-
come interested in a big industrial
concern that will necessitate his re-
moVal to Atlanta.
The enterprise in question is the
Piedmont Portland Cement Co. of
Rockmart, Ca, which will soon be-
gin business with capital stock of
100000 and capacity of 500 bar
rels a day, and in a short while in
crease it's output to 1000 barrels a
day.
Mr.. Davis has been elected secre-
tary and treasurer and general man
ager OF the company, and will have
the executive management of the bus
mess, together with the selling of
the product. He will have offices in
Atlanta, to which city he will remove
with him family in the next few
weeks.
There is a big field and a bright
outlook for the enterprise, as the de-
mand for cement is something i'm
mense and very small per cent of
the quantity used is manufactured
in the south. There are but five
mills in the south, and they produce
only one-tenth of the cement the
south uses. Georgia does not pro-
duce one-tenth of the cement used
! in the state In the United States
there are only Sc plants, having an
output in 1909 of 56,000,000 bar
rels. In the same year 100000
BARRELS were imported into the Unit
ed States.
Cement is made Of slate shale as q
filler with the fine grain blue lime
stone forming the basis, the percent
age being rs of shale and IS Of lime
stone. Experts say these two ma
terials produce the greatest tensile
strength.
The Rockmart Portland Cement
Co. owns IS acres of mountain land
that is estimated to have eleven and
half million tons of raw material
above the level of the ground. A
ton will produce three and a half
barrels of cement weighing 400
pounds. The material will be put
into the plant by gravity and han
died automatically until it reaches
the storage house.
