FIRE ACCOMPANIED
BY AN EXPLOSION
ENGINEERS OFFICE At ROLLING
MILL BURNED-BESsEME WILL
ENTER CITY BASEBALL LEAGUE.
UPsHAw TO LECTURE

Bessemer February 24.-(Special. 1.-The
engineers office at the rolling mill was
totally destroyed by fire at late hour last
night. 1t is not known how the fire was
STARTED. Practically all the blue prints
and important papers of the office were
saved. Some dynamite stored near the fire
exploded, slightly injuring two white
men and a negro. These are not serious
ly wounded and went to their homes after
having their wounds dressed. It is con-
sidered remarkable that no one was seri-
ously injured as the explosion was a
heavy one and was felt throughout Besse-
mer.
IL has been decided that Bessemer will
enter the City league and extensive plans
have been made for the season. The park
will probably be on Twelfth avenue be-
tween Twenty-sixth and Twenty eighth
streets. One thousand dollars will be
raised by the club to build a grandstand
and inclose the park with a fence. About
$500 was raised last night and a commit
lee composed of D. H. Fulton, Gray Huff
nan and G. H. Baumgardner was ap-
lcinted to raise the remainder of the
amount.

SMOOTH BURGLARS
WORK IN MERIDIAN

Meridian, Miss, Feb. 24-(spe-
cial.) Entering at the back door
of the one-story building occupied
by the Rubush- Dabbs company.
and thence out through the skylight to
the top of the building burglars last
night, with the aid of tall ladder, made
their way across the tops of intervening
buildings to the three-story structure on

outer walls of that building broke out a
window at the top OF the elevator shaft,
secured an entrance to the building and
succeeded In making way with merchsn-
disc to the value of several hundred dol
lars, the exact loss not being known at
the present time.
The burglars took their time in doing
the work and they accomplished their
task well, choosing only the articles of
most value and packing them in suit cases
which thek took from the large stock
found on the shelves in the middle of
the store.
+ 1t is supposed that one of the burglars
remained on top of the building where he
was able to reach down through a hole
in the skylight and receive the we'll
packed suit cases as they were handed
UP to him by his confederates. There Is
no clue to the identify of the burglars.

generally. make that prediction and
they are supporteds by conditions.
Following panic the tendency is al
ways upward and business grows bet
ter and better. We are now far enough
away from 1857 to be ON solid :ground
and there is buoyancy that is most
gratifying. Our own farmers, here in
Cobb, have sold fine crop OF cotton at
3Ood prices and they are in better shape
than at any time probably since 1.-THE
war.
Atlanta iss:ss Booming and this whole
section feels and will feel the reflected
prosperity.
Now, what are we going to do with
the opportunities: of Nineteen Ten?
Are we goinggto be alert, united 'snd
out for our share, or, are we going to
be grouchy, indifferent, divided, fall
out over politics, and let our oppor-
tanities slip away?
We must, in the firstEplace, sustain
the city officials in their fight to give
us water, sewerl.andl fire protection.
We must encouragesthel .manufactur-
ing plants we have, andNendeavor tc
get others ave must talk for our town
and county. We.must cultivate, good
feeling between neighbors. we must
bury the animosities of old political
rows and not dig up any new Tones
We must put business above spolitics
and go after something worth while
II we do, Nineteen Ten swill mark q
great advance III ourJmaterial affairs
If we do not we will be the loser.
Let us form our good ss.resolutions
along these lines and stick to them
1t is going to be year rich with CD
pCrtunities. Let us not throw them

II we could name a man in the sec
ond district to succeed the late Con-
gresham Griggs, we would name Hon,
Henry Mcintosh, editor of the Albany
Herald. In the first place Mr.. Nc
lntosh would reflect honor on the state
He has led all the forces and infiu-
ences that have contributed to the
marvellous growth of South Georgia.
In the second place ne was a close
personal friend and ardent supporter
OF Judge Griggs in the last campaign.
We believe that if Judge Grigs 5
could name his own successor he would
name Henry Mcintosh, and it would
be most lifting il he could be the sue
cessor OF the deceased congressman
especially when he is so eminently
qualified to fill the office.
