BRONWOOD SOLDIER
WOUNDS A COMRADE
ACCIDENTALLY DISCHARGED
GUN WHILE UNBREECHING.
RESULT PROBABLY FATAL.

Private Lynn Dozier, while walk
ing his post at the reservoir hill in
South Macon about shutdown Satur-
day night, accidentally shot and Sc
riously wounded his comrade on
duty, Private Harvey Thompson, of
the same company, the Jackson Ri
fies. The shooting was purely an ac-
cident, according to those who wit
messed it, and it is so reported by
Lieut.. Pope, of the Jackson Rifles,
who is in charge of the guard detail
at the reservoir.
According to Lieut.. Pope, Private
Dozier, who is known among the sol
diers of the Second Georgia as
Bud" the guard was breeching his
gun when the bolt was released and
the gun fired and shot his compan-
ion. The bullet struck Private
Thompson below the left shoulder.
penetrating the lung and it was
thought by the hospital authorities
that little hope for the recovery of
the wounded soldier could be enter
tanned.
Private Dozier went from Bron-
wood to Macon a few weeks after
the troops modified at Camp Harris
last June to join the Second Georgia
with members of the band, but not
being musician had to join some
other company. He has been one of
the best soldiers in the company, ac-
cording to his officers, and the men of
the regiment think him one of the
best sort of fellows. Not a mark of
discredit has ever been against his
record as a soldier.
Private Thompson was a resident
of Jackson and had been member
of the Jackson Rifles since mobiliza-
ton. He was good soldier and pop
ular among the men of his company.

church continue with increasing inter-
est, the morning services at 10 o'clock

trained to sing number of new
songs as well as the old hymns in a
way that puts. the congregation in

The crowd was swelled Sunday

cry Yards. Was News Messenger
on Atlantic Coast Line.
Glenn Minis, the 18-year old son of
Mr.. Justin Minis of the Dover COM
munity, was run over by switch en-
CINE in the Montgomery yards Friday
night, and his limbs and chest were
so badly crushed that death follow
ed in very short while.
Glenn Minis was young man who
was well-known throughout the coun-
ty, and his death was severe shock
to his many friends.
He was employed as news mes
senger on the Atlantic Coast Line,
and worked from Montgomery to
Waycross. AS he stepped from his
train in the railroad yard he was
struck by switch engine of the
Louisville and Nashville road, and
his body mangled from the waist
down.
The remains were brought to Daw-
son Saturday and inferred in Cedar
Hill cemetery Sunday afternoon at
three o'clock, Revs. j. S. Johnson and
j. F. Smell officiating at the last sad
rites.
A large gathering of sympathizing
friends were present to pay a last
tribute, and followed the remains to
the cemetery. There were many
beautiful flowers placed on the casket
by loving hands.
The young man whose tragic death
is so deeply deplored was the only
son of his devoted parents, younger
sister being the only remaining
child. He had been promoted in rec
ognition of his faithfulness and eff
cheney and would have entered upon
his new duties in a few days.

The Heart of q Friend.

There is golden binding chain that
links the hearts Of friends. This chain
is mystic welded by the Masters hand
It is sometimes as fragile as rose
leaves, sometimes as strong as steel,
sometimes as frivolous as laughter,
sometimes as, solemn as prayers; sure
us the return of seasons, constant as
the drift of the stars. Distance nor
time, silence nor waiting, nor the choice
of circumstances antarnish the chain
made bright by some happy hours Of
close companionship. Nothing can
make us forget the sweet comfort of a
friend.-Ada NJ. Kassimer.

MACHINE CREATED A STIR
Continuance Which Alaskan lie Conf
dent viii Work Must Be
Wonder.

A. A. Allen, better known to fame
as "Scotty," who was recently elect
ed a member Of the Alaskan terri
torial legislature, proposes to attempt
the ], 500-mile trip from his home to
Juneau, the capital, in a new me-
chanical contrivance which is a COM
bination Of the airplane, automobile
and Yukon bobsled. Allen sold 430
malamute dogs to the French gov
eminent while back and spent some
time in the Vosges mountains teach
ing French soldiers how to drive.
While thus engaged he observed the
maneuvers of airplanes making OBJ
servations and conceived the idea Of
his new continuance, which a Cali
fornia manufacturer built for him.
On election day Allen and Nate
'Coombs, his colleague in the legisla-
ture, tried out the new machine at
Nome, where it created such amaze
ment among the residents that many
of them, after seeing the thing skit-
tering about through the atmos-
phere, changed their minds and
voted for prohibition. 1t is said
that Aliens chief difficulty will be
in obtaining gasoline for his engine,
a fuel which can be had in Alaska
only along well-traveled routes.

CROWDS STILL
TEARING BANNERS
Pickets at White House Gates
Having Strenuous Times
While on Duty.

Washington, Aug. 15.-Tearing of BAN
ners from the suffrage pickets Of the wom-
ans party at the White House gates, and
attacks on the party headquarters at La
fayette Park, across the way, continued
to-day. Good natured but determined
crowds tore down the banners as fast as
they appeared.
All afternoon the activities continued,
women losing their banners either as they
emerged from their headquarters or as
soon as they appeared before the White
House. The police paid little attention to
the crowd or to the suffragists until near
dusk, when reserves cleared the street in
front of the headquarters and formed a
Gordon about the "pickets" at the east
White House gate.
There was one fight among several
men that promised for few minutes
to become serious, but when the ban
ner that caused 1t all had been torn
into fragments, the participants
seemed satisfied.
One woman who carried banner
lost most of her clothes and she had
to wrap herself in the banner itself
before she started through the crowd
for suffragist headquarters. Another
delighted the spectators by calmly
reaching down into a white stocking
pulling out a banner and unfurling IT.
Officers Of the womans party said
to- night one banner addressed to
Kaiser wilson and forty-nine others
had been destroyed during the day.
Secretary Daniels issued a statement
to- day warning persons connected with
the navy not to take patr in demon.

YOUNG BOY KICKED
BY HORSE, DIES

Barre, Aug. 15.-Cumberto Saldi ten
year-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred Saldi,
died at the City hospital this morning as
the result of being kicked in the stomach
by a horse yesterday afternoon.
In accordance with quarantine regula-
tions all children under 16 years old are
supposed to stay on their home premises.
Soon after dinner yesterday afternoon
the Saldi boy, with several other boys, left
home to pick cherries in a pasture near
the city. There was horse in the pas
ture and according to the boys story the
Saldi boy was stroking the animal when
it kicked him.
The little fellow would not allow his
companions to take him home, fearing
his parents would reproach him for going
away. For three hours the boys remained
in the pasture, but all that could be done
to relieve the sufferings Of the injured
child was to give him water 20 drink. At
last he lost consciousness and then the
other boys improvised a stretcher on
which they placed the injured child and
started for home Some one on the road
saw the party and took the boy into a
house. A physician was summoned and
he took the child to the hospital where an
operation was performed at once.

FRED NASH, MIDDLEBURY
MAN, SHOOTS HIMSELF
Was 3S Years Old-Hnd Been in Fall
ing Health.

Middlebury, Aug. 15.-Fred Nash, 3s
years old. lifelong resident of this viii
lage. and formerly barber, committed
suicide about seven O'Clock last evening by
shooting himself through the heart. with
a high calibre Winchester carbine. Nash
has been in falling health for the past two
years and this is believed to be the cause
of his rash act. He is survived by his
wife, one son, four years old, his mother,
Mrs. Joseph E. Nash, and a sister, Mrs.
Fred Hayden, both of this village.
Mr.. Nash drove to the village this morn
ling from the farm of his mother-in-law
Mrs. H. Kelsey, of Salisbury, where he
and his family had been living for the
past six weeks. He made some purchases
and appeared to be in normal mind. 1t
was noticed however that he had both a
shotgun and the Winchester rife in his
team.
1t was about seven O'Clock when he
reached home. Driving by the house on
the way to the barn he called to his wife
to pack his grip, he would return to
the village. He unhitched his horse and
placed 1t in the stall, then taking the
rifle. walked out of the barn and shot
himself through the heart. Death was in
Simultaneous.
