The director OF works became responsible for
the purchase OF all the lumber to be used in build
ing. 1t bought wholesale, shipped from the
sawmllS and delivered to the sites So there was
a big saving here through the buying in bulk and
through reduced cost of handling and hauling. The
first contracts given out for the construction
OF the palaces. An estimate made of the
exact number OF feet available for exhibits and
charts prepared to keep a close record on
the progress OF the work. 1t determined that
this exposition should be not only on time, but
ahead OF time. incidentally, another means of
watching progress would be the amounts paid out
each month. During the earlier months the ex-
penditurcs went at the rate of $1,000, 900 a
month. Every three weeks contract for build
ing would be given out The same contractors
figured on each building. From the start it was
that the work should be done by union
men, The chief exceptions were the Chinese and
the Japanese. The exhibitors had the privilege
of bringing their men. In ALL about 5000
men were employed working either eight nine
hours day. During the progress OF the work
there practically no labor troubles.

START FIFTH ROUND

Forest Hills. n. Y. Sept. 4.-Cali-
foruia has three representatives among
the eight survivors in the national
lawn tennis championship who started
play today in the fifth round. 1t was
virtually certain that two Of them
would figure in the semi-fnals on Mon
day.
Probably the closest match OF the
day was that between William NJ.
Johnston and Clarence ]. Griffin, both
of san Francisco. On account Of his
brilliant victory yesterday over Karl
Behr, Johnston was the favorite in to-
days contest, and TO many he looked
like a formidable contender for a
championship.
Maurice e. Mclaughlin of San Fran
cisco, the third Californian, was eX-
pected to make short work Of Francis
T. Hunter Of New York in his advance
today toward the finals.
r. Norris Williams IL, Of Philadel-
phia, the champion, had IN William
Rand III Of Harvard, an opponent
whom hitherto he has outclassed.
Since Mclaughlin and Williams were
expected to come through with COM
parativeiy easy victories, interest cen
tered in the Johnston-Griflth match
and in the meeting Of Theodore Roose-
welt Pell Of New York and Giving c.

'POSSUM HUNT
RESULTS IN DEATH,
MR.. C.. O. BAXLEY'S GUN ACCI-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
CAUSES INSTANT DEATH.

RHEIMS, November 2::-Mr c 0
Baxley, a prosperous farmer of the
Choppee section, met with fatal ac-
cident Monday morning about nine
o'clock, at MIR W H Baxley's house,
near the store of Baxley Bros. Mr.
Baxley had just returned from his
traps on Mingo creek and was show
ing his fine catch of opossums and
'coons to some carpenters that were
working on the house. He had one
foot on board, with his gun stand
ing upright on the board beside him.
While he was talking to the carpen-
ters the gun slipped off the board,
striking the hammer, which caused
the gun to 90 off. The charge en-
tered his throat, almost severing his
neck and causing instant death.
The untimely death of Mr. Baxley
in this manner has shocked and sad
dened the entire community. He
was about 40 years old and an esti-
mable citizen. A devoted wife, six
small children and a host of relatives
and friends are left to mourn his ir-
reparable loss. The remains of the
deceased were laid to rest in the
Rose Hill Baptist church cemetery
Tuesday afternoon in the presence
of a large concourse of sorrowing
relatives and friends. B W M.
