THE DAWN OF THE NEW SOUTH


Old Dame Fortune tilted her we'll
known Horn of Plenty over the State
Capital Tuesday morning, and out of
it poured in golden rain the wealth
of the Young South.
The Corn Club Show was open.
The Golden Rain came down in
marveIously orderly fashion, too In
stead of delugiug the first floor of the
Capital in a cluttering and unseemly
fashion, the shower grouped itself in
$500 clustered pyramids, one pyramid
to the boy. ten ears to the pile,
ranged on acres Of long red-coyered
tables, representing rs Georgia coun-
ties,
Besides the rain of corn, Mrs For
tune showered down wonderful as
sortment of fruits and vegetables, all
: tastefully canned or dainty pre-
served i'll jars-the exhibits of %
county Girls Canning Clubs And
that exhibit was given well-deserv-
ed place of honor, just outside the
ante-room of the governors suite"
Boy Corn Growers Arriving
And while the early morning
: crowds of visitors were walking and
talking and measuring and praising
and wondering, 1000 exhibitors
1000 Georgia corn club boys-were
advancing on Atlanta. Some of them
arrived Tuesday morning.; others
say 200 in all-came in about noon.
But that was only the advance guard.
The main body will arrive Wednes-
day morning. And then the fireworks!
Acres of orderly corn, marshaled
ten ears to the pyramid, and repre-
senting stability expected to out
last the Cheops pyramid of Old Egypt
that was the browning glory of the
Young South.
In the advance guard celebrities
were not lacking.
There was Edward j. Welborn, the
champion, for example.
Edward is rising Il, and you can
see in his face that he was cut out by
nature to be a winner.

YOUTH FALLS 90
FEET TO HIS DEATH
Escaping From Blast in Old Dominion
Mine, Ernest Hooking Falls
From Ladder


Globe, Ariz. July 5.-Ernest Hooking.
q young EnglishJ1an fell 80 feet to Gaatn
in the Old Dominion mine. The youth
died an hour after he was taken to the
hospital.
John Jasper, a contractor, expected to
cut the gray shaft raise through to the
shaft. His partner laid off and Hook
ing was EMPLOYED to take his place.
Jasper and the youth pointed their shots
and set fire to the fuse.
Hooking was the first man down the
ladder, being about 10 feet ahead Of
Jasper. and was hurrying to escape from
the 200 foot raise before the shots were
fired.
1t was the theory at the mine office
that in making his descent the youth
kicked a rung out Of the ladder. between
S. and 90 feet from the bottom. Jas
per said Hooking did not utter a sound
as he fell.
The contractor hurried down the lad
der and ran 1900 feet to where other
men were working, after he had carried
HOcking's body where there was no dan
ger of falling rock from the blast.
DR.. c. T. Sturgeon, chief surgeon for
the mining company. was summoned and
had the youth rushed to the hospital
The fall broke both of bookings legs,
one Of them in three places. broke his
back and caused internal injuries which
in themselves were Of a fatal nature.

With a Temperature Of SO,
Ell PasOans Celebrate and
Enjoy Themselves.

Not all Of the noise Of the Fourth
was made by explosives. The weather
made a loud explosion when it smashed
the heat record for this year by going
to 90 degrees Friday afternoon This
is the hottest for the year, being two
degrees above the maximum for this

Much Noise and Enthusiasm
tt was a big Friday, the Fourth. IN
Fl PasO- After q day of little activity,
the old town woke up Friday night and
celebrated with all the noise making
devices known to man or Chinaman-
Long before dark the 1mpromptu fire
works were started in the residence
district and the booming of the tor
pedOes and fire cracker battalion down
town got busy soon aft,r supper, to
awaken the pOpulace from the half hoI-
idav Friday afternoon. The Chinese
restaurant keepers, led by Mar Chew,
celebrated with long strands of Chinese
fire crackers which were attached to
telegraph poles lighted and allowed TO
drive all Of the devils within mile
square away from the immediate VI
cinity- These Chinese fire crackers
were a novelty to many visitors and
new Corners in FL Paso who knew not
how much noise one Of them could
make. The street car tracks were
covered with a mixture OF sulphur and
potash which exploded with a noise
like the battle of JUarez and made the
sale Of nerve tonic brisk. The streets
Saturday morning were covered with
burned fire crackers.
Many at Band Concert.
The Reyes band gave its patriotic
concert in Cleveland square to large
crowd which filled the square and
CtrneEie square adjoining it, At the
Paso Del Norte roof garden the crowd
danced. listened to the music and
drank thirst quenching mixtures in the

a crowd at the Country club, and a
number of private parties were given
during the evening

Two Slight Casualties.
From a standpoint Of casualties the

stead of going out of the proper end,
came out of the side, and landed in the
palm of the girls hand The burns re-

sidered serious

How Paris Was Named.

Among the villages which Caesar
conquered was one built of reeds, rush
es and mud on swampy island In the
Seine. Mud predominated to such an
extent that the Roman name for the
place was I.utetia. or midtown"
The Celts, who inhabited the place.
were called ''Parisii," and they burned
their town of reeds and rushes and
mud on the approach Of an enemy
rather than surrender. Caesar was
not slow to see the advantages Of the
situation Of the village. and he ordered
n wall to be built around the island
and temple to Jupiter to be erected.
A town sprang up almost ut once about
the temple. and later this was called
after the ancient inhabitants. PARISH.
Thus we can fix the date Of the birth
Of Paris ut the time of Caesar. B. c. 80
Rich Romans took up their resi-
dences on this island, and Julian was
proclaimed emperor in 800. He built a
great palace for himself on the left
side OF the river, and soon about this.

ton swarmed. Later the two towns
were united. and the Paris of today
has grown from this beginning.
