Macon Man Of Many Wives

Macon, Ga, June 20.-Reports from
the doctors at the hospital attending
l.. NJ. Simpson, who shot himself
through the left breast early yesterday
morning at his home on Anderson
street, South Macon, because warrants
charging hi mwith bigamy had been
sworn out against him, is resting very
we'll today, and if he continues to inn
prove it will be only matter of time
before he will be we'll again.
The bullet that passed through his
body failed to penetrate any large
blood vessels or break any bones, but
had it been fired few inches lower, it
would have passed directly through
his heart and killed him instantly
The warrants sworn out against
him have been dismissed.
Mrs. Simpson, No. 8, with whom he
was living at the time of the shooting
and by whom one of the warrants was
sworn out, was formerly Miss Ruby
Barwick, of Cordele.

Many important bills and amend

An effort will be made, for which

Before the day of railroads, ST. Ma
RVS was an Important point and large
cotton shipments were made through
that port. The St. Mary's bank was
one of the first banks chartered in
Georgia. and the old brick building IS
still standing, though used now for a
church.
The old cemetery has many noun
ments, some of which date back as far
as 100, having engraved on them the
names of some of Georgia's most dis
tinguished citizens of the past, whose
families are now almost extinct, have
moved away, or are widely scattered.
Some of these monuments were badly
shattered when the Federals shelled
the town during the civil war. Adorn-
ed with its long avenues of stately
live oaks, this cemetery is grand
gloomy and peculiar.
A railroad is now being projected
that the good people of st. Mary's
trust and hope will bring this historic
old city back to it's former greatness.
May their anticipations be realized.
The good people of st. Mary's gave
the convention a warm and cordial re-
ception. The ladies of the city gave
the convention a trip down the bay
and delightful luncheon. They car

gardens and building for employees,
stables, dairy, cow house, barns for

and boat houses. Her three sons also
have handsome residences on the is
land, all connected by beautiful shell
roads through groves of magnificent
live oak trees, and here is the grave of
Light Horse Harry Lee. Cumberland
is truly princely possession, beauti-
fully kept up.
We were then taken on the boat out
to see some of the famous Greene and

We were then taken to Fernandina

CENTRAL TO BEGIN
Big IMPROVEMENTS
Southwestern Division To
Have New SidiRgs.

Work on the construction OF num-
Der of long sidetracks by the Central
of Georgia on the Southwestern divis-
ion will start at once, and they will
all be finished by time the heavy fall
traffic begins. Most of these new sid
ings will be installed between Fort
Valley and Macon.
The Central is also improving a
great deal of it's track along other
portions of it's system, but the side
tracks between Macon and Fort VAL
ley are especially in demand, owing
to the fact that two divisions are OPP
Grated over one track between Fort
Valley and Macon, and consequently
the large number of trains on the sin
gle track make their operation rather
awkward unless there are sufficient
side or passing tracks.

ALL night PARTY
IN BATHING TOGS
Society Sensation StirS Up
Macon Folks

macon, Ia, June AO.-l nc smart SCI
of Macon is agog because OF the fact
that 20 young men and 20 young We
men, all prominent socially, passed q
night recently in swimming pool, at
tired only in bathing costumes.
The costumes were of the daintiesi
and also of the scantiest, and the
temperature of the swimming pool
was pleasant, but the 20 couples did
not enjoy themselves. They passed
the night in abbreviated costumes IN
the pool, not because they wanted to-
but because they had to.
w. d. Billingslea, millionaire, with
magnificent home to which spa
cious swimming pool is attached, has
been giving swimming parties during
the present hot weather, which have
been attended by the young men and
women of the smart set.
Last night Billingslea invited 2C
men and 20 women of the most eXclu-
sive set to a swimming party All
came, bringing the latest creations in
the way of bathing costumes, and soon
they were disporting in the large pool
The couples splashed about in the
water, flirted bit and then splashed
some more until after midnight, Then
some one noticed the lateness of the
hour and a rush was made for the
dressing rooms.
Then it was discovered that the
clothes of the forty bathers had beer
taken, and that the swimming poo
had been locked Billingslea himseli
was one of the victims.
Efforts to make themselves heard
were in vain, and the 20 men and q
girls were forced to spend the night
in the swimming pool clad in their
scanty costumes.
The hours from midnight to dawn
were not cheerful. The girls were
cold, for they had little covering, and
the men were cold, for the same rea
son. The girls We're also sad, for they
were fearful about what their parents
would say,
Fortunately, Billingslea had some
refreshments in locker that were
available, and these dispelled the
gloom somewhat
FINALLY, about 5 o'clock Billings
lea made some of his servants hear
and the doors of the pool were forced
and the party of men and girls re-
leased. 1t was not a merry crowd that
emerged.
Taxicabs and autos were summoned
The girls, wrapped in sheets, were sent
to their homes. The men were wrap,
ped in any old thing and also hurried
away
Strenuous efforts were made to keep
the matter secret, but it leaked out,
and social circles have been all agog
since, as the girls and young men in
volved are society leaders. The church
folks are holding up their hands in
horror and wondering what the world
is coming to.
Thehost thinks some on played his
guests a practical joke, but he is mad
clear through, and has offered large
reward for discovery 'of the person
who stole the clothes and locked the
pool At any rate, there will be no
more swimming parties in Macon for
the present
