FITZGERALD UNDER MARTIAL LAW

State militia has been sent to Fitzgerald as a
precautionary measure against outbreaks Of vo-
lence and Fitzgerald is for the time being under
martial law. The condition should be no cause
for worry alarm on the part of the good pco-
pie Of the city nor Of the least Inconvenience to
Fitzgerald people the people of the section
who custOmarily come here to trade.
The city and county for three miles around
the town is under the control of Colonel r. D.
Russell OF Macon veteran OF the world and
who won distinction provost officer. He was
for atme provost officer for the Paris area and
thoroughly understands the kind of work he has
been sent here to direct. Fitzgerald people need
have fear OF unnecessary restrictions or i'm
positions by the military forces.
The young men in the militia companies that
have been sent from Cordele and Macon are clean
gentemany fellows from whom the citizens OF
the city expect the same sort OF courtesy that
they observe in civilian clothing. There is ahso-
lutely no reason to fear unpleasantncss OF any
sort to chafe under the technical condition OF
martial law.
The experience will be a unique one for Ftz-
gerald but everything should continue to run in
the same and peaceful channel it has al
ways and with added peace OF mind in the
knowledge that to the strength of our good city
and county authorities has been added that OF
the great state OF Georgia in preserving order
and amcable relations among our people

AN OPTIMISTIC NOTE II THE BIG FIGHT
Literally tons Of white paper and hundreds of
pounds OF ink have been consumed in telling about
the Carpenter Dempsey prize fight last Satur-
day. Quite enough has been said, and yet, there
Is one thing more that might be said and that has
not been said yet about the fight One high light
has not been commented on and that is the fact
that the drab barbarity OF the contest was relieved
by flash, big flash, that shows that civilizations
even If only veneer, is substantial veneer.
Two men entered the ring at Jersey City. One
OF them was an American and was foredoomed to
win from the time the fight was first arranged
The other was foreigner and was foredoomed to
lose Yet, American though he was, the conquer
or was not the popular favorite. OF the ninety
thousand who watched that fight at least seventy
thouSandhoped against hope that the foreigner,
the weaker man, would VIM That is not a senti-
ment OF barbarity 1t was another sort of senti-
ment, of higher type that the call of the clan, than
the prlmordial hero worship of brute strength. Of
the conqueror.
Sentiment is a mental growth of civilization.
Barbarlans do not have it. Still in the most frank
lybarbarous event of the year real sentiment was
felt and expressed. More homage was done to
Carpenter, the soldier and patriot, in defeat than
to Dempsey, the victor and who, by all the laws of
fistiana, should have won not only the spoils but
also the palms of victory.
Dempsey is the unquestioned fistic champion of
the world. He is the most perfect fighting ami
NAL the human race has produced in MANY wears.
In his line he is MONARCHY Yet, he is not popu-

Burned Nine Days.

The Caddo Central has been burning nine days. It blew in q wild gasser March .. while the crew was preparing to set casing. and on March II was set on fire by a bolt of lightning during a rain storm. It is situated near the Payne No. 1, said to be the best well in the field, and work on two or three wells near by was held up because of the fire. Love Bros. had drilled the plug on their well few hundred feet south, but ceased operations. It is like ly now that they will bring in their we'll at once.
 All that is necessary now for the Cad do-Central to cap their well. This likely will not take long. Although the equipment for this purpose was burned when the we'll caught fire, new equip ment has been made, meanwhile, and the crew will go to work immediately on stopping the gas flow. Reports have credited the Caddo Central we'll as be- ing a gasser. It was not a gasser be- as he intended in the sand. Even at cause it was not completed when 1t blew in and the driller had not gone as far that. it is said the well is making con- siderable oil.

That Camp Pike will be reteained as permanent United States army post, is stated by H. l.. Remmel in letter received yesterday by members of his family. MT. Remmel is now in Wash ington. He said that he had been in conference with the secretary of war and had received the assurance of the secretary that the local camp will not be abandoned. MT.

 Congressman D. R. Anthony of Kan sas. a member of the House Committee on Military Affairs, is leading thee del egation from his state in an effort to have ereversed the recent order junk ing Camp Funston, which order trans ferred considerable amount of troops and material to Camp Pike.
 Both General Wood and General March have approved the retention of Camp Pike, because of it's stategic po- sition with rela tion to the Mexican bor- der.-GaZette.

BURNING GASSER
 EXTINGUISHED
CREW CONQUERS CApDO-CEN. TRIAL FIRE WITH STEAM
 PRESSURE.
tBy Fletcher Chenault, in Arkansas
 Gazette.)

Gazette.)
 Fl Dorado. March 20.-The Caddo- Central's burning gas we'll, the great menace of the Fl Dorado field. is cue. The flame was extinguished at 5 this afternoon, and all that remains TOW is to cap thc wild gasser, which may re- quire two or three days.
 Credit for conquering the fire is due c. r. Clayton, vice-president of the Caddo Central, and Red" Chessiere, field superintendent, who ar eexperts in this line. After several futile at tempts their original steam line plan finally was successful, but not until part of the gas flow was diverted, thus lessening the flame. Part of the gas flow was drawn away through an eight inch casing. This reduced the pressure and made the flame smaller, which en- abled the eight steam lines to overcome the resistance and cut the flame in two.
 The attack yesterday failed because the water tank collapsed just as the steam pressure was applied. Red" Chessiere was ready for another attack at ? 30 this afternoon. A head of steam was maintained for about 20 minutes before the flame was severed.

SIX ARE KILLED :
 IN ELEVATOR
GRAIN LOST AS RESULT OF CHI- CAGO EXPLOSION WORTH
 MILLION.

Chicago, March 20.-Six men are known to have perished in the Satur- day night explosion of the Armour Grain company's big Northwestern ele. vator. The bodies of two victims have ben found and identified Four more are believed to have been buried under the tons of debris, concrete and twisted half melted steel which may take weeks to clar away.
 The known dead are two watchmen, Paul Baia, and Henry Osterman.. Ba- la's body was blown from an upper section of the giant structure far into the railroad yards to the south where it was picked up, headless and with only tatters of clothing and one shoe remaining on it. Osterman's body was taken from among mass of steel and wreckage in what had been a lower section of the structure at o'clock this morning.
 After searching all day in the ruins, officials of the grain company, on ad- vice Of firemen, said it would be i'm possible to go on with the search until most of the wreckage has been cleared away. This will require powerful wrecking and hoisting machinery, and the use of acetylene torches for the de- molished sections are mass of beut and twisted steel.
 The four men unaccounted for and believed to lie in the ruins are Louis Reich, 30 years old, Arthur Boumann, 30 years old, NJ. J. Wiltz. 2S years old, and Amill Marsell, 30 years old.
 The fact that the books and payroll were destroyed in the explosion made 1t | impossible for the officials of the com pany to check accurately on the miss ing.
 The grain loss was placed at border ing on S1,OOO,00O by officials of the grain company. There were about $4,' OO0, 900 worth of grain in the elevators. E. A. James, scretary of the company said this consisted of 5,O0O,00O bushels of oats, $1,5OO,OOO bushels of corn and about 100000 bushels of wheat. It is not expected that the grain loss will affect the markets Monday.
 Two theories were advanced in con- nection with what may have caused the explosion These came from John K. Thompson, who was superintendent of construction during the building of the leevator. One of his theories was that the explosions was spontaneous combustion. The other was that high ly explosive mixture of humid air and grain dust was ignited by spark, pos sibly from watchmans cigarette Gazette.
