Philippe's revolutionary government,
however, easily put an end to his am
bitten. The pretender was imprison-
ed. Later he escaped and, by a
strange turn of fortune after the Rev.
olution of 1913, became president and
then emperor of France.

torical parallel, even the failure of
the present revolution would not nee
eassarily wreck the future of the Diaz
name in Mexico.

Mr.. 5. H. McAllister, on last FRIDAY
about noon, got two fingers on his
left hand cut off in feed mill, with
which he was cutting corn. He was
attending to the MILL and when it failed
to feed properly, he put his hand into
the hopper to push the corn down.
His foot slipped and he thrust his
hand down to the revolving knives,
with the result that the two middle
fingers of his felt hand were cut off.
He sustained some other cuts on this
hand, but these wounds will heal.
Announcement has been made of the
Henderson Lumber Co., that their mill
which has been operated at Della for
many years past, will cease operations
at this point on the 10Th of this month.
after which time they will begin op-
erations of large saw mill at Leila
ton, Ga. The mill at this point is
one among the largest present mills
in the state, having cut on an average
of something like fifty to sixty thous-
and feet of lumber per day. The new
plant to be operated at Leilaton is es-
timated to cut from sixty to seventy
five thousand feet per day.
