L. OF c. BOY DIES FROM INJU-

Is First Death at Institution Since
the American Game Was
Adopted.
lEy Associated Pressl

San Francisco, Oct. George
Blewett Of Los Angeles, freshman
at the University Of California, died
today of injuries received in a foot
ball game, and following an opera
tion for blood clot on the brain. He
was injured a month ago at football
and his leg was fractured in Satur-
days game.
His brother James suffered a dis
located shoulder in the same game.
This is the first death since the re-
vival of the American game at Berk-
eley.
The operating physicians said that
Biewett succumbed from a hemorr.
hage of the brain as result of q
heavy fall.
There have been no deaths from
accidents in nine years of Rugby foot
bali at Berkeley, but the universit,
officials said that it is improbabl,
that they will attempt to abolish tn

Hired nauffman.

Slane told the officers that he and
another young man, the last name OF
whom he never learned, hired Bauff-
man, the auto dealer, to drive them
TO San Diego in his new Chandler.
When they were about two miles north
Of Oceanside, they concocted the
scheme Of death.
Slane says Harry" his compan-
ion, drew jack out from beneath the
seat and struck Bauffman several
times over the head with it. Both
tumbled the body out of the auto over
the cliff and covered it with the auto
robe, and with sand and brush.
They then proceeded to drive the
car to San Diego, and then, Sunday,
drove it to Imperial Valley, as they
suspected the San Diego officers. The
killing occurred late Friday afternoon,
Slane said.
Although Slane denied he struck
Kaufman with the jack, his story is
contradicted by note he left at the
drug store in Brawiey.
This note was addressed to sister
in Colorado Springs. In it Slane
assumed entire responsibility for the
murder, saying no one was to blame
for himself. He asked the forgive
ness of his sister for the deed.
Slane claimed TO be a discharged
soldier from one of the forts in Colo

CHIEF OF POLICE
OUT WITH FACTS
Popular Official Was Confined to Bed
Three Months. Now Hale and
Hearty Since Taking Tanalac

If there is a man in Macon who is
universally known and liked, that mar
is Geo Samuel Riley, the popular and
efficient Chief of Police of that city.
Chief Riley has been prominently
identified with Macon's public affairs
for a number of years, and is highly
esteemed and respected for his high
character and integrity by all who
know him. In an interesting inter-
view recently, Chief Riley said:
81 came to Macon when l was only
a 16-year old-boy from Houston coun-
ty, and have been living here for 3S
years. I nave always enjoyed very
good health, and have been what you
would consider a strong, healthy man..
Last June l was taken very sick, and
was confined to my bed for three
months with a trouble that developed
into pleurisy with serious complica-
tions, and l had to undergo several
| operations. For a while l was en-
tirely helpless.
"After getting out my right side
| continued to pain me. My breath
would get short, and l had terrible
pains and swellings in my legs and
feet and catching pains in my hips
and the small of my back. This
trouble made me very nervous and
l lost sleep. To tell you the truth
I was in mighty bad shape, and moth
ing in the way of medicine seemed
to do me much good.
"My kidneys bothered me a great
deal and my whole system seemed to
be filled with Uric Acid poison. For
a while l had little control over my
kidneys and this bothered me a great
deal. Like everybody else, l got to
reading about Tanalac and decided ia
give it a trial. l a understand now
why everybody, is praising this medi.

start. The pains in my side have

(From Thursdays Daily


After being in session for three days
the Board of Supervisors of Lef1ore
County late yesterday afternoon
awarded contracts for one hundred
and thirty four miles of roads to be
built of gravel, and took action viz
tually spending five hundred and sixty
four thousand dollars. The average
cost of the roads to be built will be
over four thousand two hundred dol
lars a mile and the road will be either
nine or fifteen feet wide, according to
specifications. The gravel will be six
inches deep on the roads when COM
pact.
The roads are to be constructed with
gravel to be gotten from several u
ces. The county furnishes all mater
ials, including gravel and culverts.
Some of the gravel will be Tishomingo
and a good deal will be secured from
Carroll County. It may be that some
of the Batesville gravel will also be
used. The County will place the grav-
ell in cars at sidings nearest where the
work is to be done and the contractors
are to do the rest.
The contracts for the roads let yes
| terday were awarded TO two concerns,
| The Kane-Kelley Construction Co., of
| New Orleans, and the McTighe-Hewey
| Co., of Hazlehurst, Miss. The amount
| of the contract given the New Orleans
concern totalled for the work $311,-
| 2S1.25 and to the latter named 1884,
466.62. The gravel for the former
will lost the county $175,2S1.25 and
| for the latter $4,000. Both compan-
| les were put under heavy bond, the
Kane-Kelley Co., for $4,000 900 and
| the McTighe-H ewey Co., for $4,000.
While the records show that only
1874 miles were contracted for yester-
day the Board virtually let contracts
for $50 miles, the line of one or two
roads having to be changed which
necessitated their being readvertised.
The Board and the contractors agreed
however to make the same rate on
those stretches as On the remainder
Of the work.
The roads which F to be built by
the Kane-Keliey Construction Co, and
the distances are as follows:
Shell Mound to SchlateF, 7.12 miles.
Schlater to Sunny Side, 1856 miles
Sunny Side to Minter City, 4.5e
miles.
Minter City north to Tallahatchie
line, 4.85 miles.
Schlater to Sunflower county line
6.75 miles.

Work on those roads will begin in
the near future and they will be rush
ed to completion as quickly as posi-
BILE. The work will be done under the
supervision of the County Engineer
who has the authority to see that the
contracts are abided by.
The contracting firms who are to
| build the roads are recognized as
| among the largest and most respon-
sible in the South. They entered bids
! in competition with firms from all
| over United States, most of whom
| they beat on prices by a wide margin.
| Some few were within sight of the
| prices quoted in the bids of the firms
to: whom the contracts were awarded
but none were as low.
The. road question has given the
Board of Supervisors and the people
of the county much worry for several
months. Following the election at
which a majority of the voters said
they were in favor of issuing the
bonds the Legislature by a special act
authorized their being issued. Then
came the question of what class OF
road to build, some favored concrete
some asphalt and others gravel. After
! thoroughly thrashing the matter out
the Board decided that gravel would
suit the greater number of the people
of the county and voted to use only
gravel in the construction of the high
ways.
The decision as to the type Of roae
to build hung fire for several month:
and was a cause of much trouble botf
to the members Of the Board, and AID
visory Committee and the people o.
the county. The Board members were
eager to do the right thing and tx
spend the money in a way that i
would do the most good for the great
er number Of people Of the county ant
while they have been censured a goo'
deal there is no question as to thei
sincerely of purpose and the major
ity of the people Of the county ar
satisfied with the manner in whicl
they have conducted the matter.
