{. / NAvY HAS
NARROW ESCAPE

E |. Seayy and little son, Jay, had
a very narrow escape from death
last Friday evening when lone en-
gine going east on the Burlington
ran him down at crossing on the
Seavy farm east Of town.
The morning train west was pull
ed by two engines, and as usual one
returned In the afternoon.
Seavy was going to the field to
get his tractor In readiness for work
on the following morning. lie was
driving the Kissel truck with gaso-
line and with him was his little boy,
lad Of about 8 years.
The railroad cuts the Seavy farm
in two, but there was crossing on
the place: that Ii the fence had been
cut and Seavy had scraped in some
dirt for a crossing, but the company
had not yet provided the planks for
placing the crossing in proper shape
However. Mr.. Seavy had been using
the crossing, and the opening in the
fence had been made by the employ
ees Of the railroad.
When Mr.. Seavy approached the
crossing he neither saw nor heard
the approaching engine until about
ten feet from the approaching mon
ster.
The truck was going south, the
engine east. A snow fence and a
slight cut come nearly to the cross
ing from the west and probably cut
of the view OF the train from Mr..
Seavy. and also prevented the en-
gineer from seeing Mr.. Seayy until
too late for either to avoid the collis-
ion.
The truck was about two-thirds
across the track when the engine
caught 1t and carried 1t about half
the length Of the truck and then
pushed II on to one side. The heavy
front part OF the truck containing
the engine kept the truck upright.
but the blow demolished the cab,
bent the heavy main frame, smashed
the rear wheels, and hurled the baby
from his seat about twenty feet down
the track and he was picked up be-
tween the rear end of the truck,
which had been thrown clear of the
track and the end OF the ties. Mr..
Seayy found himself still at the
steering wheel when the thing was
over.
The engineer and fireman brought
the engine to stop and went back
to care for the injured.
DR.. Miller being absent from town
DR.. Olson was summoned from Keota.
First reports had 1t that the baby
was the worst hurt OF the two. The
lower limbs were badly bruised and
swollen, and it was feared that he
might be crippled for life; but we
are glad to say that the indications
now are that he will hardly know
that he was in an accident In two
or three weeks. He sustained deep
cut on the head, but that will hardly
show when the hair grows out about
the place.
Mr.. Seavy had four ribs broken
and the ligaments torn near the
backbone. He had several days of
intense pain and Sunday II was fear
ed that there might be serious inter-
nal injuries. but it is believed now
that with rest and quiet he will be
well again be able to get around as
well as ever with no permanent dis
ability.
These lone engines going east are
source of danger that has nearly
caught others during the summer,
so We are told They are going
down grade In that direction, and
run very queitly. and as they are
usually returning In the afternoon.
people are not expecting them.

FARMERS NOW RICH WERE
ONCE DROUTH VICTIMS
Returning to Automobiles to Homes
Which They Deserted

DALLAS, Tex.-Some of the west
Texas farmers who deserted THEN
homes last summer in pitiful white
lines of old prairie wagons are now
going back in automobiles. Driven out
by three year drouth, they are going
back as oil men.
Stretches of land where the drought
had virtually withered every leaf of
vegetation and from which the dis
heartened farmers departed for the
cotton fields and other more prosper
Gus sections are within the new oil
district.
Some of the farmers who stray
gled, almost penniless, from the
"parched zone" a few months ago
can qualify as oil magnates, it be-
ing the heart of the new oil district.
Leases are being sold for a few
acres at vastly larger sums than en-
tire farms would have brought wear
ago and enormous investments have
been made.

PEOPLE UNABLE TO
BURY THEIR DEAD
BODIES LAID IN STREETS AND
PICKED UP BY PUSH CARTS
AND DUMPED IN RIVER

L. A. Cooper, southern divisional di-
rector of the American Committee for
relief in the Near East, who has Just
returned from a trip in the southern
states, said:
"If the people of America could
picture to themselves a community
suffering from the worst known cpl
demic of influenza with thousands of
people dying of that disease and from
starvation with very little food and
less medical aid in the whole country,
they would have some idea of condi-
lions in the Near East.
I'm some of the cities, the people are
so desolate and weakened from con-
tinued want that they are unable to
bury their dead and as many die each
night from starvation they are car
ried out and their bodies laid on the
street to be picked up and loaded on
push carts and dumped into the near
est river.
Or. Henry Riggs, just as he was
preparing to sail from New York on
relief ship for Armenia and Syria,
received a cable from that country
urging immediate help and telling of
conditions that are unprintable. These
people have suffered, during the pc
riod of the war, agonies that were
unknown before to human beings and
are still suffering and being persecut-
ed on account of their unshakable
faith in Christianity. The Christian
people of America have a wonderful
opportunity to m ak themselves
Chrlst's agents to answer the prayers
of these people for help"

RANDOLPH COUNTY IS
RETURNING TO PEACH RAISING
Hundred Thousand Trees Have Been
Planted in Shellman SectiOn-AlsO
Big Orchards Near Cuthbert.

little over twenty years ago Ran
dolph county, like the tree mentioned
IN Holy Writ, was known by its fruits,
and Cuthbert ranked among the big
peach shipping points of the state.
The advent of the San Jose scale,
however, caused the orchards to be
cut down when it was discovered that
the scale and peaches would not long
thrive on the same tree, and lime
sulphur solution was unknown.
1t is beginning to look as though
this section will soon be in the peach
belt again. Within the past three or
four years hundreds of acres in this
county have been set out in peach
trees, and, barring a late freeze, a
good many of them are expected to
bear this year.
The largest orchards in the county
are in the vicinity of Shellman. Sew
eral of the Crittendens, Prothro &
Son, Oliver & Evans and two or three
other parties have extensive orchards,
the aggregate being in the neighbor-
hood Of 100000 trees. Some of these
will come into bearing this year and
it is expected that a number of cars
Of peaches viii be shipped from Shell
man this season.
Recently three or four parties from
the vicinity of Fort Valley have pur-
chased land near Cuthbert for peach
growing. They realize that fruit ma
lures here several days earlier than at
Fort Valley and hope to get a fancy
price for early peaches. We hear
that one of these newcomers plans to
set out 10000 peach trees this year.

PROTESTS OVER HIGH COST
OF FOOD REACH CONGRESS
Packers Profits, Especially, Are Held
to Be Made Possible by Federal
= Price Regulations

Protests, according to Washington
reports, are reaching Congress from
all sections of the country against
the policy of the Government in main
tanning high prices of foodstuffs, and
the consequent high cost of living.
The administration already is under
fire in connection with the continued
maintenance of high price for hogs.
The Attorney General has been petit
toned by the members of the Chicago
Board of Trade and the New York
Produce exchange to take steps. to end
the fixing of pork prices, which at
IN cents pound, are pronounced to
be so per cent. higher than would
normally obtain, but the Attorney
General has replied that he can do
nothing so long as this control of
prices is exercised by the Food Ad-
ministration.

AWOMAN'S BACK
The Advice of This Dawson Woman
Is of Certain Value.

Many woman's back has many
aches and pains.
Ofttimes It's the kidneys fault.
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills are
so effective.
Many Dawson women know this.
Read what one has to say about it:
Mrs. L. E. WEIGH, $40 E. Eleventh
street, gave the following statement
May 5, 1911: "For about a year l
suffered with rheumatic trouble which
undermined my health so l became
helpless. Ny back bothered me lot,
too. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills ad-
vertised for just such cases as mine
I began using them. Doan's soon
strengthened my back, removed the
rheumatic trouble and made me feel
fine in every way"
On April Is, 1918, Mrs. WEIGH
said: 81 cannot praise Doan's Kid
ney Pills too highly for what they
have done for me. l know they are
worthy of trial by anyone having
kidney trouble"

and emphatic approval given by
Judge W. T. Newman, of the United
States District Court for the northern
district of Georgia, to Senator Hoke
Smith in connection with the federal
judgeshop bill now pending before a
conference committee of Congess, has
eliminated all possibility for the
senator's antagonists to make politi-
cal capital out of the matter by charg-
ing that the bill is designed to GUST
Judge Newman from the bench.
The publication of this statement in
one of the newspapers antagonistic
TO Senator Smith was followed very
quickly by an interview from Judge
Newman in which he stated that he
thoroughly approved the bill, and that
he has written to Senator Smith to
urge the passage of the bill.
The bill provides that the salaries
of district judges shall be increased
to $500 year, and allows a judge
to retire on full pay when he has
reached the age of 20 years. Judge
Newman has already signified his in
tention to retire as soon as the bill

GREAT DAY AT CROSS ROADS
Large Crowd Hears Fine Addresses
On Baptist 75sMillion Campaign.

Sunday was day long to be re-
membered at Old Cross Roads church.
The Baptist clans gathered there from
far and near, the meeting being IN
the nature Of campaign rally for
Mt. Zion, Cross Roads and Saiuda
churches, though there were visitors
also from. Newberry and elsewhere.
There were morning and afternoon
services with dinner in between. A
dinner that made one happily uncon-
scious Of the sugar shortage, till ne
got back home.
The speakers Of the day were; Rev.
Hasford B. Jones Of Columbia, Rev.
r. v. Babb and DR.. w. n. Hunt, and
each Of them laid the great campaign
upon the hearts Of the people with
power. There was also a separate
meeting for the women, addressed
by Mrs. Hunt in her heart-to-heart
style.
The day itself was fine, the address
ses were fine, the dinner was fne,
the responsiveness was fine, insomuch
that one felt compelled to echo the
words of Tiny Tim, Good bless us
every one" When those who were
resolved to do their part in the cam
paign were asked to stand, it pre-
sented the appearance of congrega
tion rising for the benedictlon-and
it was a benediction. Surely, the
Baptist who remains aloof from tnis
mighty movement that is southwlde
in it's origin and worldwide in its
scope and purpose will be as a man
without a country-an alien and an
exile among his own brethren.
Cross Roads church is the Second
oldest" church in the Reedy River
association. Just one hundred years
before the Kaiser drew his sword and
declared war on civilization, IN the
wear 1914, when another war was
drawing to close, this historic old
church was planted. For half a cen
tury the negro slaves were shipped IN
its spacious galleries while their mas
ters occupied the pews below unth
the war between the states put an
end to this fraternal custom. b But
the rugged and dignifed old edlflce'
still stands like a memorial OF the
past and a promise for the future.
A fitting place this for meeting
so meaningful and so inspiring, and
should the three churches represent
ed vie with one another Victory Week
for the honor of being "hrst ana
furthest over," who shall say wplch
will win the prize?
