HURT BY DYNAMITE CAP
Two Small Boys Suffer Injury

On Tuesday afternoon, while
playing in a box-car near the
depot, several small boys de-
clded that they would expert

which they found in the car

was nevertheless, struck on the
face and hurt right painfully.
The others fortunately escaped
uninjured, but rallied to the re-.
lief of their unconscious play-
mate, Robert, who soon came to
himself. The boys agreed
among themselves to tell their
parents that a man had shot
them, but Sheriff Hunter. who
had been summoned, made an
examination and after close
questioning of the lads, elected
a confession of the whole affair.
Young Bowers was seriously in
jured but it is now thought ne
will soon recover, while the
Street boy, except for the cut on
his face, is little the worse for
the accident. 1t is almost a
miracle how any of the boys
came out of the escapade alive.

GREAT WELCOME
FORGOTTEN TAFT

Ex-President Well Received i'm
Augusta-ThOusand School
Children Joined in the Public
Ceremony.
Augusta, Ga, March 5.-A
welcome as demonstrative, if not
more so, as Hon. William How
ard Taft ever received in Au-
gusta while President-elect or
President of the United States,
was given him Wednesday
morning on his arrival at Au-
gusta. With 1000 school chill
dren gathered in and around
beautiful Barrett Place, imme-
dlately in front of the union
station, and with each waving
small American flag and
cheering at the top of his young
voice; with $50 Richmond acad-
emy cadets drawn up in mill
tary formation along Telfair
street, where the former Presi-
dent was driven out on his way
to his hotel, and with several
hundred citizens, including the
mayor, members of city coun-
Gil, prominent business and pro-
fessional men and many ladies.
Mr.. Taft's entry in Augusta
was indeed triumphal.
"Citizen" Taft showed his an
probation of the great honor
which the people of Augusta
were paying him.
Il am impatient to get to NV
golf sticks" said Mr.. Taft, "and
| am indeed glad of the chance
to come to Augusta for few
weeks"
The Taft private car, con-
tanning Mr.. and Mrs. Taft and
Miss Helen, Mrs. Thomas w.
Laughlin, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
ID. Hilles and Mr.. w. w. Mis-
chler, the stenographer who
has reported almost all of Mr..
Taft's public utterances from
the time he was President
elect until now, was attached to
the Atlantic Coast Line train
reaching here at 1855 o'clock
this morning.
In another car was party of
Augustans who went on to
Washington to escort Mr.. Taft
back home" to Augusta.

BATTLE MONUMENTS
DAMAGED BY VANDAL
Eight of Memorials at Gettys-
burg Scared by Unknown
Person.

Gettysburg, Pa, March s.
Eight monuments on the Get
tysburg battlefield were badly
damaged last night by a vandal,
who evidently used a heavy
hammer for his destructive
work. The monuments which
suffered were the Fifth corps
headquarters, Forty-ninth and
Ninety sixth Pennsylvania.
Fortieth New York, Grants s
Vermont brigade, Sixth Maine
Fifth Wisconsin and Thirty
seventh Massachusetts. Large
pieces of granite were clipped
OFT prominent parts of all the
memorials, while in several in
stances parts of the faces of
soldiers were knocked off, guns
smashed and parts of bodies
broken.
1t is believed the work was
done by some one disappointed
IN seeking employment in the
national park.

MARSHALL WANTS NEW
OFFICE AT CAPITOL

Senate Must Secure Special
Chair to Accommodate Sena-
tor Ollie James, the Biggest
Man in That Body.
Washington, March 5.-Hun-
dreds of inaugural visitors, who
thronged into Vice President
MarshalPs office today, so dis
turbed the equilibrium of the
Vice Presidents first day of
official duties that he has deter
mined to ask for new room
over in the senate office build
ing where "he can put his feet
Oh the desk and smoke a cigar
in peace"
The Vice Presidents single
office room adjoins one of the
main corridors near the senate
and through long custom it's
door remains open to the pub
lie. Mr.. Marshall, early at his
desk, found that he had to do
business in the full view of the
passing crowds, which fire.
quently surged in and demand
ed the visitors prerogative of
shaking hands.
81 don't see that this room
differs much from monkey
cage" said the Vice President
'ring a lull in the constant re-
ception, except that the visi-
tors do not offer me any pea
nuts"
Another change that will be
necessary in senate accommo-
dations to meet the demands of
the new senators, is the provid-
ing of special chair for Sena-
tor Ollie M. James of Kentucky,
who enjoys the distinction of
being the biggest man in the
senate.
