Cows are Down Now
$50 Each at Auction

Mr.. w. M. Turnbough conducted
an auction sale for the owner OF a
carload Of fine dairy cows. at his sales
stables last Saturday, at which sale
the writer was present. The car
load was disposed Of, but 1t was .
self-eyident fact standing out conspi-
cuously before the big crowd present
that there were not going to be any
fancy prices paid. The finest cows
in the lot brought $3.50, and
they were about as wood cows as any
one would run across anywhere. The
COW that brought $3.50 was guar
anteed to give four gallons Of milk
day and was fine looking speci-
men OF the Holstein variety, num-
Der Of that type being sold. 1t was
noticeable that when the bids got a.
round $40 1t was quitting time with
the majority OF the bidders.
Q. n. Hartman and T. Hugh Smith
purchased the greatest number Of
cows offered at the sale.

BAD WRECK ON THE
M. c. - NONE HURT
Passenger Train Smash-Up al
CarlOs-COaches and Track
Damaged.

The worst wreck that has occurred
on the Mississippi Central Railroad
since the road was built took place
yesterday morning at Carlos, six
miles east of Brookhaven, the acci-
dent happening to the incoming west
bound passenger train. Strange as
it may seem, with the derailment of
the coaches with their load of hui
man freight, not single scratch was
received by any of the passengers or
the trainmen.
The smashup occurred half a mile
east of Carlos station while the train
was coming in at fast clip. The
trucks or wheels under the tender Of
the engine either broke or left the
track and as the train was pulled
on by the engine, tore each wheel
truck from every coach following
with the exception of the last one on
the train, letting all of them down
on the ground with suddenness and
smash that did not give the passen-
gers time to know what had
happened so quickly did 1t occur. One
coach was left careened over on its
side to such an extent that it all but
toppled over while the flooring un-
derneath the baggage car was torn
almost in shreds, as was also fifty
yards Of track, the cross ties being
smashed completely in two and dug
up by the dragging coaches and
trucks. The engine and tender be-
came detached from the coaches and
ran on about 80 feet before being
brought to a standstill by the en-
gineer.
Regular traffic was resumed again
in two hours by making transfers at
the scene Of the smash-up while the
cars and track were being cleared
and the road being gotten in readi-
Eess for through service again.

YOUNG MAN DROPS
DEAD IN HOTEL LOBBY
Cecil Boadwee Victim of Heart
TrOuble-Was World War
Veteran.

At about 1918 Monday morning
Cecil Rhodes Boadwee suddenly pass
ed from death into eternal life at
his place of business, the Hotel Inez.
He had gone to the telephone to call
his physician, but died before the
doctor reached his side. Since his
demise it has developed that he had
been under treatment for heart trou-
BILE for some time; but kept all know
ledge of his condition from the home
circle. disliking to cause them an
xiety.
Young Boadwee was born Novem-
ber, 10, 1896, in Brookhaven, where
he resided continuously at the home
of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. 0.
Boadwee, with the exception of the
time he served his country at Camp
Pike. 1t is with pride and pleasure
that his excellent service as book
keeper in the office of Camp Pike is
recalled at this time.
The deceased leaves to mourn be-
side his parents, ave sisters, Mrs.
Williamson, of Gulfport; Mrs.
Parker Cunningham, of McComb; !;
Mrs. Virgie Fuller of Ell Paso, Tex;
Misses Bessie, Lutte and Ruth Boad-
wee of Brookhaven, and two broth
ers, Messrs. Roy L., and Claude, the
latter being twin brother of the de-
parted member of the family circle.
Cecil was of a quiet, reserved temper-
ament and was young man Of true
integrity of character. He spoke no
i'll of anyone and deplored the fault
in others. He was home-lover and
his mother lovingly tells of how he
aided her in the selection of supplies
for the large family all of whom re-
garded him with undying devotion
because of his kindliness and the
pleasure his presence about the fam
lily hearthstone always brought. His
sudden and wholly unanticipated
death was great shock to the faith
er who first reached his side, only to
find his boy passed beyond his help,
to the mother whose fondness for her
children is ideal and to sisters and
brothers alike.
The funeral attended by large
coneourse of friends, took place from
the family home on South Church
street yesterday afternoon at $3.50.
Rev. j. A. Taylor officiated. Repre-
sentatives of the American Legion at
tended and an American flag covered
the handsome grey casket.
Beautiful flowers and floral en-
blems expressed loving interest and
tender commiseration.
At the grave the Masonic Order
took charge of the ceremonies, Chas,
E. Grafton, presiding. The deceas-
ed was not only a Mason but a
knight of Maccabees. The body
was laid away at Rosehill be-
side two brothers, sister, and other
loved ones gone before.
To the sorrowing home, Sympathy
goes out as the shadow of deatA
throws it's gloom over the snnsh
of mortal life. May peace and "a
abiding faith in an ever ruling Pro.
vidence come as the days pass with
out the touch of the vanished hand
or the sound Of the voice that Ii
stilled.

RAISE In STREET
LIGHT HEARING
City And Power Ofic-
ials Before Railroad
Commission

Mayor Sheppard, City Attorney
Lane and w. D. Tiedeman, city en-
gineer, representing the city, and
Manager W. E. Rogers and Attor-
ney W. A. Dodson, representing the
Americas Lighting Company, appear
ed before the Georgia Railroad com
mission this morning in the hearing
on the company's application for a
specified increased rate for the
street lighting for the toy iof Ameri-
Gus. All were expected to return
home tonight.
The hearing is the outcome of the
company demanding a greatly in
creased rate for street lighting for
this year just before the close of
1920, and the refusal of the city
council to sing a contract at any in
crease. Efforts of the two interests
to get together having failed the
company at one time proposed to let
the railroad commission fix the rate
for the service to which the city
agreed, but later, the company pub
lished a notice of application of a
specified rate and the fixing of a
date for the hearing. =
The new rate asked for by the
company is n cents per kilowat for
current, the city to maintain the sys-
tenn and furnish its own lamps, or 85
cents per kilowat, the company to
maintain the system and furnish not
to exceed renewal lamps per year.
The old rate was a flat rate for
lamps of certain sizes and not COM
parable.
The city is combating the appli-
cation as excessive and unwarranted
by conditions and costs.

THE products of the soil are our
primary wealth.
These products are not now being
freely moved, because of the cost of
transportation which must be reduced
to the end that business can be re-
vived and the cost of living reduced.
Construction work is at a standstill
because of the high cost of transpor-
tation, materials and labor, all of
which must be reduced in order to
improve traffic and bring matter to
a normal condition.
Unemployment and high costs oc-
casloned by exOrbitant freight rates
limits purchasing power.
The reduction of transportation
cost ultimately will reduce the cost
of living and that will enable re-
duction of wages, which in turn will
Increase employment.
