FEED MILLS WILL
Be BUILT In DAWSON
MATERIAL NOW BEING PLACED
ON GROUND FOR THE EREC-
TON OF BUILDINGS.

The revolution of agriculture
throughout this section will not leave
the farmers without market for
their field products.
Any who may have felt uneasiness
on that score will find reinsurance in
the fact that material is being placed
on the ground for the erection of
two mills to convert the hundreds of
thousands of bushels of corn, velvet
beans, peanuts, oats and other like
crops into understandable form in the
shape of feedstuffs.
Mr.. r. E. Mcdowell has placed ma
terial on the ground where the grist
mill was burned some time ago at
the corner of Vine street and Fourth
avenue for the erection of one of the
largest and most modern feed, flour
and grist mills in Southwest Georgia,
and the work of construction will be
begun at once. Fourth avenue will
be extended west from Vine street
and fronting Vine street and adjoin-
ing the mill building Mr.. Mcdowell
will erect a large blacksmith shop
which will make a speciality of the
work of farmers.
In addition to these buildings Mr..
Mcdowell will erect at the corner of
Vine and Lee streets, directly oppo-
site his large sale and feed stables, a
concrete building for a large and
modern garage and a smaller build
ing in which to keep the handsome
hearse he recently bought.
These improvements will represent
an expenditure of more than SIS, 1000.
Another Feed Mill.
Mr.. A. j. Baldwin is having ma
terial placed on the vacant lot west
of his gin and fronting Lee street for
the erection of feed and grist mill.
This feed mill will have a capacity of
fifteen tons per day and will be in
operation about June LIST.

L. C. BRANNON WILL BE
TRIED IN TERRELL COUNTY.
Following a Mistrial at Georgetown
Court Orders Change of Venue.

Following a mistrial in Quitman
Superior Court Judge Worrill an
nounced that he would order a change
of venue in the case of L. G. Bran
non, under indictment for alleged
irregularities while cashier of the
bank of Georgetown, but objection
was interposed by counsel for the de-
PENDANT and hearing on that point
was set for Saturday.
At that time Judge Worrill adhered
to his original intention, and ordered
the case to Terrell county for trial,
which will probably occur at the May
term of Superior Court.
A strong array of counsel is on
both sides of the case. Solicitor
General Castellew is disqualified, and
the state is represented by M. j..
Yeomans as acting solicitor, assisted
by H. A. Wilkinson of Dawson. Pot
tie and Hofmayer of Albany, M. c..
Edwards of Dawson and j. B. Query
of Montezuma represent the defend
ant.

THIRSTY DAWSONIANS
SORELY DISAPPOINTED
MANY DAWSONIANS ARE GREW
ING OVER SIGNING
OF DRY LAW.

CONSERVATION was rampant in
Dawson Thursday morning when it
became known that Governor Har-
ris had affixed his official signature to
the bone dry prohibition bill at IL
O'Clock Wednesday night
The officers of the Southern Elk
press Company flashed orders all
over the state holding up the deliv-
cry of all beverages in the offices
with the additional directions that all
packages be returned to the con
signOrs.
A number of disappointed believ-
ers in preparedness were refused de-
livery at the express office in Dawson,
despite the fact that their goods were
in full view with their names at
tached thereto.
The Dawson office had 1876 pack
ages on hand containing approxim-
ately 800 quarts, valued at nearly
five hundred dollars, which were re-
turned Immediately upon orders from
state headquarters.
OF course the conSignorS may re-
turn the money sent them by the con
signees for the eleventh-hour ship
ment, but the money was in their
possession last week before the or
ders at issue had been sent.
Governor Harris had promised the
Southern Express Company that he
would not sign the bill until FIVE days
after its passage, which is the time al
lowed by law for the Governors sig
nature, but he suddenly changed his
mind and withdrew his promise after
the booze had been shipped out of the
warehouses by the dealers.

BIG MULLET SUPPER ENDS
IN BAD SHOOTING SCRAPE
Carrie Nichols Shot at Parrott Col.
Ored Festival. Razors and Knives
We're Much in Evidence.

We're Much in Evidence.
The termination of an evening of
pleasure for the colored population
of Parrot was a shot fired by Fish
Perry at Carrie Nichols, which passed
through her hair with no other dam
age than several small powder burns
about the face.
The occasion of the gathering was
the proverbial mullet supper, which
menu was combined with other re-
freshments, even though now con-
trary to the statute book of this
state.
AS the evening progressed razors,
knives and pistols came into prom
inence and finally the usual quar-
rel arise, which resulted in Per-
rvs firing the shot. He is now in
Jail awaiting trial.

LITTLE DOROTHY DEAN DIES
VERY SUDDENLY IN MACON
Daughter of Former Dawsonian Fails
to Recover From an Attack
of indigestion.

The Macon Telegraph says the
whole Second Georgia infantry was
saddened Friday when they heard of
the death of the young daughter of
Bandmaster w. c. Dean, who enlisted
from Dawson. Many of them knew
little Dorothy Elizabeth and all had
heard the popular leader of "The Old
Gray Bennett" band talk of his g.
year-old child so much that they knew
his loss was untold and that any
thing they could do would be too
little for the man who has done so
much to make the regiment one of
the best in the service.
The band received the news after
they had played several pieces in
preparation for the good roads par
ade and Immediately packed up their
instruments and left for the camp
grounds, although the committee had
prepared dinner for them at the Ho-
tel Dempsey. They excused them
selves and left for the park.
On Visit to Camp.
Mrs. Dean and her two children
were spending few days with the
band leader since his arrival from
the border and had intended to leave
for home Thursday morning. The
child had an attack of acute indi-
gestion early Friday morning, but
was not considered seriously i'll. On
removal to Williams sanatorium
everything was done to save the little
girl. Death came at noon. Besides
the mother and father a young sister
survives.
The members of the band were
mustered Saturday for pay roll sew
eral hours before the rest of the regi-
ment in order that they might escort
the body to the train. Their accom-
panying the body with a military fu-
neral dirge was probably the first
time such was ever done for a body
not that of a member or ex-member
of the regiment.
Six members of the Second Reg
iment band acted as pallbearers.
