decided discrepancy between the count

that Of Arthur McGovern, the officially

ancy amounted to one second and it
locked to the writer as though Norfolk,
dazed, confused and unsteady, stag
gcred to his feet when Mcfarland had
counted nine. The referees count of
nine rang with McGovern' count or
ten, and the latter's timing was taken
as official, which was quite correct

white mans remark few yaers ago
when he saw a great building going
up on the lot at Whitehall and Ala

Bile corners in the city.
The story behind the trade is that
of the affection of the old-time south
erner for the slave boy who was his
especial playmate. Seventy years
ago before Lewis Peacock died, in
apportioninS out his property, ne
left Ran to his daughter, Mrs. Thomas
Connolly. Young Thomas Peacock, a

fourth interest in the Alabama.
Whitehall corner for Ran, who, as a
likely young negro, was worth around
$500. Mrs. Connolly's son now
owns the lot and the Connolly build

men say the lot itself is worth $780,,
600 or more.
Peacock said it was the best bar

MACON, August 28. - Getting

because she was only II and her par

MARSHFIELD, Ore, August %.
Through the long years Sailor
jack" the mystery man Of Oregon,
has waited in his lonely cabin in the
hills near here for the coming of
bride.
Forty years of seclusion, hidden
from his fellow men in a pine shack,
high up in the hills surrounding
Marshfield, with his sole com
panions an old rooster and three
scrawny cows, has not shattered his
dreams of romance and marriage.
Sailor jack" now more than 80
years old, will have to offer cher"
a bridal chamber kept in readiness
for nearly a half century. The
boudoir lacks the feminine touch,
however, for the hermit sacrificed
vanity to necessity.
A chest Of drawers, hewed from
the majestic frs of his hills, a bed
from the same frs and a redwood
washstand compose the furniture,
except for one clumsy cedar chair.
The bacl, yard is filled with frs
and redwoods, rising more than 200
feet straight from the back door.
