CANDY CH0kED
DEPUTY SHERIFF
LODGED IN TOM JENNINGS
WINDPIPE, AND RENDERED
HIM UNCONSCIOUS.

Deputy Sheriff Tom Jennings had
narrow escape from death at his
home when he swallowed a piece of
candy and some of the substance
lodged in his windpipe, causing him
to lose consciousness.
1t seems that Mr. Jennings was in
the kitchen of his home aiding in the
preparation of the MONDAY meal
when he spied some candy on table.
He began to eat a piece and some
of it lodged in his windpipe He at
tempted to call but his family were
out in the yard and did not hear him.
Mr.. Jennings says the last thing he
remembers is pitching forward face
downward on the floor. When he re-
gained consciousness some minutes
later he had severe pains in his throat
and even yet is suffering from hoarse-
ness. 1t is supposed that the fall loos-
ened the lodged object and allowed
his breathing organs to function again.

SOME SALARIES CUT
AND OTHERS RAISED
STEAM BOILER AT CONVICT
CAMP USEFUL. POTATOES
AND SYRUP FOR SALE.

Many improvements have been
made at the Terrell county convict
quarters recently by the commission
ers, who plan to make them among
the most sanitary and modern in the
state.
The steam boiler Of the Dawson
Canning Co. was bought and housed
in a building at the camp, and its uses
have proved to be many. It is being
used to creosote the lumber which is
used in the construction OF bridges,
and the boiler furnished the power to
grind the sugar cane and heat to make
the syrup from the juice. One of its
most important uses IS to furnish hot
water for the prisoners. This is very
beneficial feature, as cleanliness of the
camp tends to make general health
conditions better and in this way rails
es the efficiency of the men.
This year forty barrels of syrup
were made, which will reduce the eX-
pense Of feeding the convicts. More
than $500 bushels of sweet potatoes
were raised and are now in the pro-
cess of curing. 1t is estimated that this
is surplus of both products and the
county is selling some of both.
In an effort TO economic the com
missioners have reduced the salary
of the deputy warden from SIPS to
500 a month. and of the carpenter
from SIS to 500 a month. The salary
of the guards have been raised from
$50 to 500 a month. The net result OF
these changes will be a saving to the
county of about SIS a month.
A Kelly-Springfeld truck was pur-
chased by the commissioners at sale
recently held in Augusta for $3.50.
