one of them.

AUTOMOBILE WRECK

There was a collision between the
automobiles driven by Russell Thom-
son and R. E. Cox in front of the
residence of Mr.. T. C. Seal last night,
in which both cars were considerably
damaged. Mr.. Thomson with a party
of young ladies and gentlemen was
driving North along Main street,
while Mr.. Cox and several young
men in his car were coming towards
the public square. AS the two cars
approached each other, each driver
thought the other was about to make
a turn, and each undertaking to avoid
the other turned his car out of his
course. The result was the collision.
The damages to the cars were about
$250.O0 each.

GENEROUS DONATION THIS
John B. Cleveland Buys Home For
Aged Women and Makes
Gift OF 1t.

Spartanburg, Oct. 14.-John B.
Cleveland of this city has purchased
the building known as the Spartan
burg City hospital, together with the
nurses home adjoining, and has pre-
sented both pieces of property, valued
at about $65,000,\ to the Georgia
Cleveland Home for Aged Women
here. The property purchased by Mr..
Cleveland is situated on North Dean
Street in one of the most attrac-
tive residential sections of the city.
The Geogia Cleveland Home for Aged
Women is at present located on South
Dean Street in a building that has
proven inadequate to accommodate
the aged women applying for admis-
sion. The present of Mr.. Cleveland
will provide an ideal home for the
ladies now dependent upon the home
and will also enable the authorities of
the Georgia Cleveland home to ad-
nit a large number of other appli-
cants who have recently been turned
away because of lack of space.

BRITISH FACE AN
INDUSTRIAL CRISIS
Coal Miners Have Ordered A Strike
Saturday Night, Throwing Over
100000 Workers Out OF
Employment.

London, Oct. 14.-The United
Kingdom today was faced with per-
maps the most ominous industrial cri-
sis in it's history, due to the decision
of the coal miners to allow the strike
notices to become effective Saturday
night following their rejection of the
compromise offered to their demand
for a two shilling per shift increase
in wages.
1t seemed certain that unless the
government or the mine owners con-
ceded the demands of the men or
made fresh attractive offers, more
than SOO,O miners would not return
to the pits Monday, thereby throwing
hundreds of thousands of workers in
other industries out of work and
causing a critical situation in the
economic life of the country.
Official returns from the national
miners ballot concerning the. datum
line proposal of the owners showed
an overwhelming majority in favor Of
rejection. At this mornings crucial
conference of the miners delegates,
who met to consider the deadlock, a
small minority held out for submis-
sion of the claims of the men to ar
bitration, but this was brushed aside.
1t was stated that the miners execu-
tives expected to be summoned to the
board of trade this afternoon, but
whether this would occur, or if so,
what it presaged, was matter of
speculation.
No sooner had news of the decision
of the miners been received in the
giant steel district of Cleveland,
Yorkshire, that the iron and steel
manufacturers there began prepara-
tions for closing the works. 1t is ex-
pected that if the strike materializes
most of the blast and steel furnaces
will become idle Immediately.
The government, while saying lit
tie for weeks, has been actively pre-
pairing to handle the situation in the
event of the strike being called.

NEGROES RETURNING
FROM NORTH AND EAST
Many Families Flocking Back to Gen.
trail and South Georgia, And
Appeals Come From
Others.

Macon, Ga, Oct. 14.-Thousands
of Georgia negroes who migrated to
the north and east soon after the out
break of the war, lured by high wag-
es offered in industrial plants are re-
turning to Georgia and hundreds of
others unable to make the homeward
trip because of lack of funds, are
sending appeals to their former en-
ployers for tickets on which to travel
back to Dixie.
Stories appearing in the Macon
News, of this city, from a number of
counties in central and south Georgia
chronicle the return of many families
and appeals from even larger num-
bers for funds with which to return
to their native homes.
Virtually all of those who return
and those who are writing for funds
state that they have been thrown
out of employment and now find
themselves faced with the prospect
of a hard winter in a strange land.
Returning negroes all tell the
same story. The high wages received
counted for little with them as they
were more than offset by the high
cost of living in the industrial GEN.
ters to which they went. Practically
all of them return to their old homes
penniless, glad to have saved enough
from their high wages to purchase
the precious pasteboard which mean
transportation back to the land of
cotton, sweet potatoes, free quarters
and free firewood.
