DOBBIN ASCANNON FOOD
FIFTY HORSES AND MULES SOLD
IN DAWSON FOR FOREIGN WAR.
Two Buyers Pay From $40 to $3.50
For Two Car Loads of Animals.
Thousands Being Shipped.

Within few months many Terrell
county horses and mules, some OF
them family pets, will be galloping
into the shrapnel and bayonets OF
German soldiers, tugging and strain
ing at the traces as they drag heavy
artillery over frozen roads or lying
wounded, helpless and dying on some
French, Belgian or German battle
field. For despite the peace talk, de-
spite the humane sentiment of our
people agents of the British and
French governments are securing the
country for mules and horses for use
in the great conflict that is now rag
ing in Europe.
Two men were in Dawson Friday
and Saturday buying mules and
horses for this purpose, and got two
car loads for which they paid from
SIS to $3.50 a head. Their total
purchases amounted to something
over $1,000
Train load after train load of
American horses and mules are leav-
ing Chicago every day for Canada to
be shipped to England. Other trains
leave daily for New Orleans, whence
the horses are shipped to France.
Many a family pet will be bullet
shattered and will die a lingering
death in the cold of the coming win
ter, for there are no Red Cross socie-
ties to care for wounded horses.

PISTOL WOUND IN HEAD
"DOCK" CULPEPPER FOUND IN
SHOP IN THROES OF DEATH.
COrOner's Jury Returned Verdict
That Death Was Accidental. Some
Hold to Suicide Theory.

HOI0 TO SUICIDE lneOfy.
News rapidly spread throughout
the city Saturday afternoon that Mr..
u A. Culpepper, a well known citi-
zen of the Twelfth district, had COM
mitted suicide as result of depres-
sion due to the present situation in
business matters.
Sheriff Hill and Coroner Marshall
went to the Culpepper home and held
an inquest, and the verdict of the
jury was to the effect that his death
was due to the accidental discharge
of pistol.
Mr. Culpepper was at home alone
at the time, his wife and mother
having gone to a church some dis
lance away, and none of the several
witnesses could throw any light IN
the way in which he received his
wound.
Mr.. Culpepper did gun and black
smith work, and was busy Saturday
morning in his shop, which is across
the road from his residence, About
1880 a negro tenant went there 20
see him about going to the gin and
found him lying on the ground in the
last struggles of death and unable
to speak. Near by were the parts of
pistol he had taken to pieces to re-
pair and lying at his feet was his own
pistol with one ball discharged. AL
most in the exact center of his fore
head was a pistol ball wound, and
so close was the weapon when it fired
that it burned the skin.
1t was the theory of the coroner's
jury that the pistol was discharged
accidentally while Mr. Culpepper was
attempting to take a cartridge from
it to try in the one he was repair
ing.
Mr.. Culpepper had been a citizen
of Terrell county for many years,
and being of jovial disposition and
big-hearted had many friends who
were shocked at his tragic end. He
was about fifty-five years of age, and
is survived by his wife and step
mother
The interment occurred Sunday af-
ternoon in Sardis cemetery, Rev. NJ.
B. L. Binion conducting the last
rites.

Referee Will Return.

Hon w. w Wright, referee in
bankruptcy, came up from Blakely
Friday to take evidence and pass up
on orders in four or five cases that
are pending in his court, but some
of the attorneys claimed that they
had not received notice that he would
be here and were therefore not pre-
pared to proceed. Mr.. Wright con-
tinued the hearings, and gave notice
that he would return to Dawson on
November 18th, and dispose of all
matters that are now unfinished.

COTTON CAUGHT fire IN STREET
Is Believed to Have Been Caused by
Carelessness of Some Smoker.

Is Believed to Have Been Caused by
Carelessness of Some Smoker.
The fire department made a quick
run to Hill & PAGES warehouse late
Wednesday afternoon, being called
out to extinguish three bales of cot
ton that were burning in the street.
The damage was small, the loss
being estimated at $40. 1t was Gov
cred by insurance.
The fire is thought to have origi-
mated by some thoughtless person
striking a match on a cotton bale tie
or cigarette or the stump of cigar
carelessly tossed by a smoker falling
on a bale of cotton.
With the warehouses overhowing
and the streets full of cotton smokers
cannot be too careful. A little care
| Iessness could easily cause loss OF
many thousands of dollars.

NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS TODAY
A Comparatively Small Vote Will Be
POlIed in the County.

HOIIcu III UllS 0OuA&bNs
The national and state elections
are being held today, and the indi-
cations are that a small vote will be
polled throughout the county.
Only two of the democratic nomi-
nees have opposition, Messrs. Smith
and Hardwick being opposed for the
United States senate by c. w. Me-
Clure and G. r. Hutchens, candidates
of the progressive or bull moose
party.
At the court house at noon only
81 votes had been cast, and practi-
cally all of these are for senator
Smith and Mr.. Hardwick. If you
have not voted you should do so and
make the vote for the democratic
candidates large and decisive.
The polls will remain open until
six o'clock. t.l..

INCENDTARTEs AT WORK.
Mr.. J. c. Hills Residence, With Its
Contents, Burned Sunday Night.

Contents, Burned Sunday Night.
Sunday night about II o'clock the
residence of Mr.. J. c. Hill, who lives
northwest of the city, and all of his
household effects were destroyed by
fire
1t is the believed that the fire was
the work of incendiaries. The flames,
which were discovered before they
had gained much Roadway, original
ed on the outside of an unoccupied
room. and efforts were made to ex-
tinguish them, but the fire burned
so rapidly it could not be done. The
odor of kerosene was plainly smelled,
and the rapidity with which the ire
spread lends to the theory that 1t
was of incendiary origin.
Mr.. Hill carried only a small
amount of insurance, and the loss
falls heavily on him.

The LEAST LITIGATION EVER KNOWN
Fewer Lawsuits in the Superior Court
Than in Twenty-Five Years.

When Terrell superior court con-
venes next Monday morning week
Judge Worrill will be confronted by
perhaps the lightest civil docket in
the history of the county; at least,
Clerk Dozier says that is true as to
the twenty-five years he has held the
office.
There are only twenty cases on the
docket for trial, and the fact that
only sixteen suits, filed since the last
term of court are on the appearance
docket shows that there is remarka-
bly, little litigation in the county.
The outlook now is that the Grim
inaI business will aslo be compare
lively light, and short term Of court
may be expected.

LOOKS A BIT BRIGHTER
PROSPECTS FOR IMPROVEMENT
IN THE COTTON SITUATION.
Some Inquiry For the Staple Is Made
Here. Receipts of the Dawson
Warehouses Are Large.


Here. Receipts of the Dawson
Warehouses Are Large.
In local cotton circles there is a
better feeling than at any time in the
past two or three weeks, and Dawson
warehousemen are inclined to be
more optimistic regarding an early
improvement in the situation. There
has been some inquiry for cotton,
and those who have it to sell are
hopeful that the market will get out
of the six cents rut it has been in so
long.
The recent killing frost, general
over the cotton belt, will help values,
while expected early shipments to
Europe are going to send prices up
considerably.
What is now wanted is less COM
planning and talk of poor mouth and
more eye to business. 1t is not the
first time that cotton has sold at sew
en- cents or lower, and may not be
the last time.
1t is altogether absurd to allow
the impression to go abroad that the
South is an object of charity. Re-
suits from the present cotton crop
are far from being as remuneratiye
as had been anticipated, in fact, are
not remunerative at all, but the coun-
try is not entirely impoverished by
one unfavorable season.
The question at issue is how tc
handle the existing situation, not on.
ly for the present, but also for the
future. 1t is not expected that al
of this crop will be marketed this
year. But the more that can be sold
into consumption the nearer the
problem will approach solution. Fol
this reason indications of a revivinG
export demand are most welcome.
The Dawson warehouses have re
ceived by wagon up to date 1885
|, bales.
