DASTARDLY ATTACK
ON R. c. MATHWIG
Attacked IN His Office Yesterday by
Charles Hamilton and Unmerci-
fully Beaten

a dastardly and malicious attack
with threat to kill was made upon
r. G. Mathwig in his Office at 4 30
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. Two
young men, Charles Hamilton and a
young son of Frank Heller entered
the Office of Mr. Mathwig in the
Taralseth block as he sat all alone
in tilted chair behind his desk. Ham
sblOn walked up to Mr.. Mathwig and
demanded $500 coupled with the
threat that il he did not pay him the
$500 Immediately he would kill him
and throw his body out Of the win
dow. Then he jerked the spectacles
from Mr.. MathWig's forehead and pro
ceeded to beat and pummel him on
the head and face with his fists most
numerically and threw him down and
proceeded to kick him. Young Heller
stood in the door way and barred Mr..
Mathwig's escape. Although dazed
Mr.. A1arhwig remained conscious and
called loudly for help. Some persons
lie store below heard his outcry
and rushed up the stairs As soon as
the assailant and his partner heard
steps on the stairs they left quietly,
sneaked down the stairs and made
their escape. The city marshall and
a deputy sheriff were at the scene al:
most immediately after the attack
but thus far the assailant Hamilton
has not been found The authorities
are on the lookout for him, and feel
confident they will get him before
long. The Heller boy was apprehend

MARSHALL COUNTY GAINS
IN BUTTER PRODUCTION
Comparative Statistics Show Gain in
1921 Nearly One Fourth Over
Production in 1920

A statement made by Chris Heen,
state commissioner of the dairy and

made by the dairymen of Marshall
county during the year 1921 in COM
parison with 1920. particularly with
reference to creamery butter manufac-
ture. E 3 "a - - T..
The comparative statistics for the
two years are as follows:

The butter production in Minnesota
in 1920 was. 1929. S43 pounds and in
1921 was 169.574.s72 pounds, showing
gain of 2279 per cent in the state.
The gain for Marshall county for the
corresponding period was 34.49 per

While the. total amount paid pa

cash account, shows considerable of a
change in 1921 as compared with
1920 which change may not appear
TO be particularly in favor of the pa,
irons. We should bear in mind that
the cost of practically all items that
enter into the production Of cream has
been materially reduced since 1920
that is the cost of care and feed was
less, during 1921 than during the

Billy Whiskers
By Frances Trego Montgomery.

You see," said Bettina, after she had told -tubby and Button that she wanted to accompany them. "I mot Mamie, his wife, and Billy Junior and also Billy's daughter, Day, years ago when we were in the circus and should like nothing better than to renew the acquaintance and accept their longstanding invitation to visit them whenever I could, wherever they were. Mamie used to be a beautiful goat-the most bea uSffu1 I have ever seen, and l have seen many. My masteriS away for a couple of weeks, and we are supposed to be turned loose In the pasture, so the hired man will never miss me. When do you start?''
 Now! This very minute if you are ready said Stubby.
 Isn't it fun not to have to carry satchels, look after baggage and buy tickets?" said Button.
 "Ye answered Bettina 'and get all tired out dressmaking, packing a..:3 fussing befoEe one starts.

 tI.isten!" said Stubby "I thought heard someone whistlihg. If so, We must be off, for I don't want MT. Blackburn or his man to see us go. Button and I have just come from the 15TIo Mrs. Blackburn goodbye, but they did not know it.''
 Here comes the hired man. Let's run!'' proposed Button, and away through the field ran the three in the direction of the woods that Billy was seen to enter by moonlight the night before.
 We will leave the three friends fol- lowing Billy's trail to see if anything happened to Billy after he disappear ed from sight in the woods. For a wonder, nothing did. Neither did he lose his way nor get into any mis- chief but he pressed on in a straight line just as the crow had said, until he came out on the road that led to the village. Once on this, he made good time, and as it was still bright moonlight he trotted along just as fast as he could go, never stopping to nibble grass or steal turnips or let tuce from any truck patch he passed The few scattered, f1uttering lights of the village lamp-posts had just come in sight when Billy heard the fierce barking of dogs as if In chase or something. They came toward him for. q, while, then turned suddenly and seemed to go in the opposite direc- tion when Bang! Bang! Bang! rang out three shots on the still night air (You will have to wait until tomor- row to see what the excitement was about.)

The smile on the young mans face increased as he took possession of a seat and appropriated another for his luggage.
 '.Ah," he murmured, its grand thing to be born clever, Now I wish they'd start"
 By and by the stationmaster put his head in the door: Are your the smart young man who said this car wasn't going?"
 +Yes." said the clever one, smiling

CONSIDER WILLIE

Lightweight as Champion Benny spring for himself as soon as his hand, injured in his last bout, mends. And Willie Jackson is one of the lightweights clamoring for crack at l him. Jackson has never met the | champ.
 l Willie deserves said chance. His 1 defeat at the hands of the clever Charles White recently hasn't hurt his stock noticeably. Jackson has been taking on all the stars in his class outside Benny. He has been stopped but once in his career, as we mentioned in a recent discussion con- corning White.
 Jackson began fighting as a ban- tamweight back in 1912. It was five years before he entered the light weight division and Johnny Kilbane was the only man to halt him in that time, Kilbane dropping him in the fifth round at Phi11y in 1916. Jack son hasn't been put to sleep since.
 Jackson opened his lightweight campaign by knocking out Johnny Dundee. A fair sized job. His rec ord since then shows that he has more than held his own in his class Why he has never faced Leonard is a mystery. Perhaps he has hesifated to date. Perhaps Benny hasn't warm lie over.

The curb market has not a roof to
cover its head. 1t is as yet a child
and if it is to live must be support
cd by all who have the county's in
terest at heart. 1t is at present
healthy and strong, but the hot
weather is upon it, and unless every
person in our county gives it special
attention it may suffer backset.
Have you ever given the curb mar
ket one moments honest thought?
Do you know why it was started?
Have you once thought how much it
has already helped our county and
in your quieter hours tried to grasp
its future possibilities?
Citizens of Sumter county, this is
our market and it is our duty and
privilege to help it.
Producers bring your finest pro-

will grow as it should and we may

TECH ADVISES EARLY
ENROLMENT FOR FALL

ATLANTA, June 16.-Because of
the limited facilities at Georgia
School of Technology and the inabih-
ty to make needed expansions with
the present state appropriation, it has
been necessary to limit the number
of students to the capacity of the
institution, and high school graduates
planning to enter Tech next! fall are
urged to make application at once.
In statement issued by H. H. Cald
well, registrar, he said that it had
been necessaryato refuse admission
for this reason to more than 100
students who made applications last
September: 1880 49, Ne
This condition is 'regrettable,"
Mr. Caldwell stated, "but il is, one
which We. cannot help. The, institu-
tion with its. present facilities can
handle only "a definite number of
students and We have. beeIr filled to
capacity during the past several
years. A large proportion of the
present undergraduates have already
indicated their intention to. return
next year, and others. who plan to
enter would do wcllJto make applica-
ton now to prevent being crowded
out later on when the capacity num-
Der has been reached"
The past year at Tech has been
a very successful one. The enroll
ment of dayostudents, was 1873, and
special students including those at
the night school of commerce and the
ex-service rehabilitation students,
brought the total to 1880. The en-
rollment includes students from 125
counties of Georgia, from 28 other
states and from seven foreign coun-
tries, Students whose homes are not
IN Georgia are required to pay fees
considerably higher than those whose
parents live in this state.
