PROSPECTORS TO

iMMt GRAFTON AGENT OF A., 3. G.
A. EXPECTS MANY IN BRUINS
WICK DURING SUMMER,

That there is increasing sentiment
throughout the northwest and west
favorable to southeast Georgia and
south Georgia is the statement made
yesterday by H. R. Buckley, of the in
dustrial department of the Atlanta,
Birmingham and Atlantic, who was
IN brunswick yesterday on business.
Mr.. Buckley has just returned from
a trip through several western states
and is of the opinion that at no pc
rlod IN the history of this section
mas the outlook for new settlers been
brighter. He says that during the
summer and early fall Brunswick will
De visited by a number of prospec-
tors and thinks many of them will
come prepared to make deals for
farms and homes.
Speaking of the movement for an
other Glynn county exhibit in Chi
cago, Mr.. Buckley said that the citi-
zens were to be commended for this
as there was no better way OF call
ing attention to the wonderful oppor-
! tunities than by an actual exhibit O
accomplishments. He says the lant
shows held in Chicago are attended
by people looking for new locations
and he believes much greater result
will be obtained from the 1912 show

HE is FOR Mr.. TAFT.
Congressman Brantey's Little Son a
Taft Supporter.

The following story, sent out from
Washington to the Buffalo Evening
News, will be of interest to the
friends of Congressman Brantley and
his family:
This will be the last term in con-
gress for Representative William G.
Brantley of Georgia, who, during six
teen years of service has been one
of the ablest men on the democratic
side. In retiring Mr.. Brantley frank
ly has admitted that he goes be-
cause he is weary of being out Of
party, for there is nothing of the
progressivism as now taught in Mr..
Brantley's democracy. In his retire
ment he takes from Washington one
of the very delightful women in con-
gressional circles, for Mrs. Brantley
possesses unusual social gifts which
have made her wonderfully popular.
incidentally, the Brantleys are tell
ing with much enjoyment the politi-
cal preferences of their eldest son,
Linn, who is six years old. Presf-
dent Taft is the only president Linn
ever knew and Linn thinks he is ex-
actly what presidents should be, re-
gardless of the fact that he is OF
democratic stock as far back as the
family traditions can be traced.
Somebody gave the little fellow an
Underwood button which he wore
most gleefully until the youngster
from the next yard, after inspecting
the button, said disparingiy, "Aw, you
aren't for Underwood, are you? I'm
for Taft" WELL" replied the frank
Linn, 81 really am for Taft myself,
only he amt got no buttons The
story got tos.the Taft headquarters,
and with a button on his blouse Linn
can indulge his Taft preference prop
erly," -i44 .c

started before that time. The various
blocks to be paved are the following:

CONVICT'S BODY
FOUND in RIVER
WHITE MAN WHO ES-
CAPPED FROM AUGUSTA
STockADE DROWNED.

Augusta, Ga, May 27-Jeff Flynn,
young white man 23 years of age,
escaped from the city stockade sew
eral days ago, and his body was
found in the Savannah river here on
Sunday by some fishermen. Flynn
had been serving a sentence for dis
orderly conduct, and on the day he
escaped was with a gang of convicts
working at the stockade. He was not
guarded closely, as it was not thought
that he would attempt to escape.
Suddenly he disappeared, and the
search for him by the local autnorf-
ties proved fruitless. 1t was thought
that he had made good his escape
until his body was found floating in
the river.
Flynn had only few days more to
serve. He was convicted on the
charge of threatening to shoot a
neignbor and general disorder.

Wilson Strongest Man.

Raleigh, N c., May 27.-Returns
from the democratic county conven-
tions of Saturday, now practically
complete, indicate that while Lover-
nor Woodrow Wilson will have more
instructed delegates than Represen-
tative Oscar Underwood in the state
convention on June 6, by far the ma
jority of the delegates will come un-
instructed.
Only about forty of the one hun
dred counties instructed their dele
gates for presidential candidates.
Speaker Clark and Governor Harmon
also made a showing of strength, so
it seems certain an attempt will be
made to prevent any instructions for
any candidate The Wilson leaders
are expected to insist upon instruc-
tions.

Colonel Roosevelt started from Oys-
ter Bay early this morning for what
may be the last day of campaigning
before the national convention, unless
he decides to go to South Dakota.
1t was said that the colonel might
visit the latter state if President Taft
spoke there, but that the presidents
intentions were unknown. Colonel
Roo 'evelts itinerary included a num-
Der of large towns in the central part
of the state and tonight he ended at
Princeton and spoke from a ealcony

this rostrum, it was said, was due to
the refusal of President Hibben of

was said about President Taft, who
was the institutions guest recently

MINISTER REAUPRE INSTRUCTED
TO EXPLAIN NAVAL MOVE
: MENTS TO PRES. GOMEZ.
Admiral Osterhaus's Big Fleet Will
Await Developments in Harbor al
Key West This Week-WiII Protect
Americans.

Washington, May 27.-Feeling as
sured that President Gomez has mis-
understood the purpose of the Am
erican government in despatching the
large naval force now on its way to
Key West, the state department, after
having instructed American Minister
Bearpre at Havana to make plain to-
the Cuban government the purpose of
the movement, has now left to the
discretion of Colonel Karmany, COM
manding the marine force enroute to
the naval station at Guantanamo on
the cruiser Prairie, the extent to
which the marines shall be employed.
1t is believed that as soon as Pres
ldent Gomez is made aware of the
fact that there is no sinister purpose
behind the movement of the naval
vessels and their commanders will
do lothing more than use their forces
to prevent injury to American lives
and property, he no longer will OBJ
Ject. 1t is thoroughly appreciated
here that the Cuban president must
assume rather resentful attitude to-
ward what might appear to be an in
vasion of the island, lest the patrio-
t1sm of the Cubans might be stirred
to esistance. Should he persist in
his objection, the American naval
commanders will not remain indiffer-
ent 10 the demands of Americans for
protection where it is clear the Gu
ban government cannot afford it.
Osterhaus Will Wait.
Admiral Osterhaus' extraordinary
fieee which is due at Key West, We'd
-nesday, will not move at once into
Cuban waters unless something should
happen in the meantime to demand
its presence there. 1t is said by the
authorities here that the signal for
the disposition of the American ships
among the various Cuban ports will
await the decision of American Min
lister Beaupre at Havana unless he
should be so hampered by destroyed
telegraphic communication from OBJ
tanning information as to what is go
ing on in the distant eastern end of
the island, where the disturbances at
present aer focused as TO make IL
necessary for the state department
to act Independently of his sugges-
ton.
The only news which reached the
state department over night regard
ing the Cuban situation related to the
dock strike at Havana. Generally
speaking, the prospects of a temper
ary settlement at least were reported
to be brighter
1t is felt at the state department
now, however, that the men on strike
will remain in a more or less discon
tented state of mind for some time
and that they might be easily drawn
into the rebellion against the govern
ment if that movement should extend
much beyond lis present limits.

There was other evidence that he
had well prepared to end his life. In
a note to the jailer, he said:

1t is understood that Bradshaw has
been residing in Nichols for about
two years, and was married only a
short time ago. When he first ar
rived at that place he was popular
among the people, being a leader in
the choir of his church and taking a
general interest in the affairs of the
little place.
whether or not he IS really de-

The only statement that he ever made
in that connection is the one quoted
above.

notified yesterday, but up to late
hour last night no reply had been
received from her. The body was
turned over to Undertaken zellner,
