STORM RACED
IN NORTH CRISP
ONE NEGRO FATALLY INJURED
AND DAMAGE DONE ON SEVER
ERAL FARMS. TORE DOWN WA
TER TANK.

A hurricane or "baby" cyclone which
left destruction in its wake swept over
the southwestern part Of Dooly and
northwestern part of Crisp county late
Saturday. A negro farm hand was
fatally injured as a result, barns and
other houses were demolished, trees
uprooted by the score. Heavy damage
was done to the corn and other crops
and other injury was done.
The hurricane was narrow in its path,
though the wind was travelling at a
great velocity, and at points every
thing in it's path was leveled. The
wind displayed it's powerful strength
when it picked a steel tank, contain
ing a thousand gallons OF water, off its
posts ard carried it a distance of
about two hundred feet before it
lighted This occurred on the farm of
W. T. Napier The tank was standing
twenty feet high. Damage was also
done to Mr. Napier's dwelling and
barn and in spots his corn crop was
levelad to the ground.
A tree was blown down on the dwell
ling of Jim Goodrum, who lives near
Drayton, and badly damaged it. On
the farm of j. T. Hall in the same
community, tree fell across the home
of Ben jackson, a negro, crushing him
beneath it The negr2>died the follow
ing day.
On the farm of j. B. Adkins, in Crisp
county, a buggy shed was blown down,
badly damaging a new buggy which
Mr. Adkins had purchased only few
days before.
The hurricane was going in a north
easterly direction and was several
hundred feet in its path. In places the
corn, which crop was especially dam
aged by the wind, was not only blown
down but was torn to shreds.

Big BARBECUE
"CA2'N" cox MADE JULY FOURTH
ONE OF REAL PLEASURE FOR
CRISP COUNTY PRISONERS.

Forty convicts at the Crisp county
camp Tuesday were as happy and care
free apparently as most mortals get
to be-. notwithstanding the restrictions
thrown around such a life. But rules
were not rigidly enforced Tuesday as
they usually are at the camp. 1t was
the Fourth and the inmates of the
camp were given holiday and provid-
ed with barbecue dinner and other
features of entertainment calculated
to make them enjoy the day with as
much pleasure as anybody else making
special effort to celebrate it.
"Cap'n' Cox on Monday afternoon
brought all of the convicts from the
camp, which has been located in the
Hatley settlement, back to the coun-
ty farm in order that they might min
gle with those left on The farm to make
the crops and enjoy for the day the
ease and comfort that the county farm,
with its buildings, tents and stockade
for the mules, affords
Two fine porkers, quarter Of beef
and other meats were barbecued for
the occasion. Fifty of the seasons fin
est melons, grown on the farm, were
served with the dinner. and lemonade
in abundance was provided. There
was plenty of other good edibles and
the convicts enjoyed the dinner to the
fullest.
After resting until the cooler hours
of the afternoon they entertained them
selves i'll various ways. There are one
or two good quartettes in the camp
and they enjoyed themselves in sing
ing and entertaining the others in this
way. Others INDUCED in 'pickin' dc
banjo" and "shuffiin' dem feet" and
the shades of night fell on forty happy
souls, even if they were convicts.
Wednesday morning Warden Coz
had removed the men, teams and sup
plies back to the CAMP in the Hatley
settlement, continuing work on the
roads OF that section Splendid i'm
provements are being made on these
highways, and as soon as they become
settled and packed by travel they viii
be equal to the very best roads of the
county.

June bug CHASER
GRABS live WIRE
LITTLE NEGRO BOY HEARD SOME
THING "ZUNE" THAT WAS NOT
A JUNE BUG.

For Johnnie Jones, 12-year-old ne
gro The pastime of hur ting and flying
June bugs has lost some of its pleas
ure and the next sycamore tree that
he climbs he is going to be certain
that there are no electric wires
near.
Monday afternoon the little negro
gave, chase to June bug. AS is the
custom of children he wanted to tie
string to its leg and hear the bug
"zune" 1t lighted in q sycamore
tree near the mills of the Expire Cot
ton Oil company, and the little negro
climbed the tree after it. In getting
out on the end of limb to catch the
bug ne unthoughtedly caught hold
with one hand to an electric, wire run
ming near. His screams attracted a
large number of spectators, and an
employee in the office of the Cotton
Oil company 'phoned the lectric plant
of the accident. The plant closed
down for a few minutes and the lit
tie negro removed from the wire.
Had he caught firm hold on the
Yire. it is believed he would almost
certainly have been killed. AS it is,
he was not seriously injured.

ONE DRUNK WAS ALL.
Shrinkage in Cases Before Mayor
Since New Law Went Into Effect.

One drunk on docket was the record
Of Mondays police matinee. The Mon
day before not single drunk was re-
corded. With the exception of few
fights, the number OF cases for all
offenses have been decreased since
the first Of May.
According to statement from Chief
Sheppard the average for DRINKS since
the new prohibition law went into eff
feet on May l has been two per month.
Prior to the advent of the new law
the number of DRINKS was greater.
The announced purpose of Mayor
Jones to put every blind tiger on the
