FORMER SHARON MAN A SUICIDE

A. M. Haddon, formerly cashier Of

and at the time of his demise cashier
of the First National Bank Of Corne-
liza, Georgia, shot himself to death In
his bed Tuesday night, his lifeless
body being found when members of
his family went to wake him Wednes-
day morning. The reason for Mr..
Haddon's rash act Is not known. The
first news Of the suicide was received
by Mr.. ]. S. Hartness, cashier Of the
Bank of Sharon Wednesday afternoon
in telegram which read, "Mr. Had
don shot himself some time last
night" No further particulars have
been received.
1t is said that there are no irregulari-
ties at the First National Bank of
Cornelia with which he was connect
ed, the bank opening at the usual
hour Wednesday morning. In addition
to his work as cashier Of the bank in
Georgia Mr. Haddon was in the in
surance business and was interested

1909 and severing his connection with
that institution in October, 1911. Be-
fore coming to Sharon he was employ

AUTOS HURT RAILROADS

THE automobiles are certainly play
ing havoc with the passenger business
Of the railroads in this country" said
a railroad man a few days ago. "a
great many Of the travelling men are
now doing their work with automo-
biles and the number Is increasing
steadily. You see, for instance, q
drummer in Yorkville this morning. He
wants to work this town and by II
o'clock he is through here. Then he
has business at Tirzah and Newport,
and perhaps Rock Hill and Fort Mill.
He leaves here in his car and does his
work at TirZah and Newport and is in
Rock Hill by l or 2 o'clock. He gets
dinner there, does his work in an hour
and proceeds to Fort Mill, works there,
and perhaps goes on to Pineville and
after finishing In that place, spends
the night in Charlotte. after visiting
his trade at six different points. Well,
of course the railroads can't supply
such convenient schedules and there
fore loses the business, and at the same
time the hotels are also losing busi-
ness through the use Of the automo-
bile, and the wholesale houses are the
gamers, because one man can cover
more territory in less time.
Yes, sir; the motor cars are GER
tainly taking passenger business
from the railroads. And, besides, the
individual owning car frequently
picks up one or two other travelling
men going his way, and this helps to
reduce expenses of the car owner"

DR.. Allen Freeman Of the United States

Dr. Freeman pointed out that 1t was
almost the identical diet Of every per-

appealed to the physicians to accept
for their own use and experiment the
treatment Dr. Goldberger has demon
strated. DR.. S. l.. Roberts OF Atlanta,
said that as pellagra is a wasting dis
ease, a diet including such foods as
peas, beans and fresh meats, which
were among the articles recommended
by Dr. Goldberger would tend toward
relief for the reason that they are
rich in the elements necessary to re-
store wasteage. However" he said
we should have much more evidence
