Woman Risks Life
To Save Husband

Atlanta, Dec. g. When j. B.
Crowley, of so LOOMS street,
stepped in front of a locomotive
at the Moreland Avenue grade
crossing yesterday, his wife, who
was walking with him, rushed
onto the track herself, and risked
her life to save him. She saved
all of him but his foot, which
W a S caught beneath tn e
engine wheels and later had to
be amputated at local hospital.
Mrs. Crowley was seriously
bruised. but escaped without any
broken bones or internal injur-
les.
It is said that the noise of the
approaching train was drowned
by the sound of a nearby trolley
whizzing by and other traffic
noises. Mrs. Crowley jerked her
husband back just in time to pre-
vent him from being crushed to
death.

From the Daily Bulletin :
Taft Stands by
LOngStreet' Widow
President Announces She
Will Not Lose Gainesville
POstOffice Job

Atlanta, Georgia Dec. 5.-Mrs.
Helen d. Longstreet, postmaster
OF Gainesville, will not he remo~-
ed from office by President Taft,
Notwithstanding the fight made on
her and the fact that her present
commission expires on Saturday
of this week.
President Taft authorized the
statement IN Washington, after a
cabinet meeting late yesterday af-
ternoon, that he will not disturb
Mrs. Longstreet, and she has been
so informed.
The president, speaking through
his postmaster general, does net
say that he will reappoint Mrs.
Longstreet to new term of four
years. He merely says he will not
emove her for another.
1t may be that she will be per-
mitted to serve under her present
commission until the new admins
tration takes hold in Washington.
In that event, the question of her
continuance in Office will be square
ly up to President Woodrow WI
son.
Henry S. jackson. of Atlanta,
has denied TINT he ever took active
steps to have Mrs. Longstreet re-
moved, or that he requested the
president to appoint some one else
in her stead. He has expressed
the opinion, however, that she has
no righteous claim on the Office,
and that, in view of her open hos
tility to Taft, and severe criticism
of his nomination, she could ask
for reappointment with very poor
grace, if at all.
Since the fight was started
against her in Gainesville, Mrs.
Longstreet has expressed the great
est confidence that President Taft
would not remove her.
1t is now reported in Gainesville
that Mrs. Longstreet will ask for
a nominating primary, in which
she may be a candidate for reap
pointment to a full term under
President Wilson.

RESERVOIR At
CISCO ALMOST
FINISHED NOW

George w. Middleton, vice presi-
dent of the Grand Valley Fruit &
Land company, is local visitor to-
day. He makes the announcement
that the big reservoir project at Cis-
co, Utah, which is being constructed
by his company. has practically been
completed or will be finished within
10 days.
Mr.. Middleton expects about $50
acres of land under his project to be
cultivated this year. and. since the
water is now on the land. the ESQ
tracts which have been sold will be
titled within a short time.
Our proposition was a simple
one said Mr.. Middleton. in speaking
of the project. I'VE bought outright
from the state of Utah II 900 acres
of land, all of which is arid and till
able. We have constructed a reser-
voir on Cottonwood creek which will
hold $500 acre feet of water
enough so that when once filled it
will not need another drop of water
in four years to furnish irrigation to
the entire tract
We have spent 100000 in
bitches and the reservoir, and are
now ready to produce some real
crops. Most of our land has been
sold In l0-acre tracts, and we will
have a big population there some of
these days"
Mr.. Middleton is now laying plans
for the irrigation of $1,000 acres
more in the same vicinity, but is not
yet ready to announce his plans.
Mr.. Middleton is an uncle of
George o. Marrs and William n.
Marrs. The latter gentleman is the
son-in-law of |. |. Boak, head consul
of the w. o. w, who is himself a
director in the company.

general chairman to see to the settle
ment of all disputes between the road

ing the salaries of their grand lodge
