J. PA'* BROWN PROMOTED.
A Newberry Boy Made General Man
ager Soutern Bell Telephone
Oompany.
Tie foll6wing is from the Atlanta
Journal of Saturday:
Announcmenht is miiade that J. Epps
Brown, of Atlanta, has been elected
general manager of the Southern Hell
Teleph9no and Telegraph company,
the offices of vice president and gen
eral manager, both of which were hel4
by Colonel W. T. Gentry having been
i4eparated. The rapid growth and de
velopment of tho company made it
iedessary to enlarge the organization
and Colonel Gentry's recommendation
that a general manager be elected was
acted uipon favorably last week by
the board of directors and Mr. Brown
was selected as general manager. The
change is effective April 10 and offl
cial annoncement will be made by
Colon6l Gentry April 9. '
Colonel Gentry will remain in did
rect charge of the affairs of the com
pany with headquart6rs in Atlanta,
but will devote his time largely to the
exceutive duties of vice president,
which have increased during the past
few years. He will be thg personal
representative of the presideut in all
matters of policy. The growth of the
Southern Bell Telephone and Tele
graph during the next five years is
expected to be greater than during
any similar period. The conseqent
increase in the detail work in the
offlee of vice president and. general
manager made a division of the two
111laets not only desirable. but neces
sa ry.
J. Epps Birown. the new manager,
is a naitive ot' Newberry, S. C., and is
a youn~ man only thirty-eight years
of age. 11e heganl his career in the
telephone ield March. 1899, when he
beame manag11-er of the'8outhern Bell
exchiange at Ameriens, Georgia. Since
iat thie he has won rapid promo
tion and his career has been success
ftul and brilliant to a marked degree.
While in Americus he attracted the
attention of Colonel Gentry. who
brought Mr. 1Brown to Atlanta as his
ehief elerk. lie retained this position
when Colonel Gentry was made gen
tril manager. ie' displayed Snebi
ability that he was s0011 made special
agent and with the increase of bust
ness he became special to tMe general
manager. All energetic iorker and
constant student, he grasped eveiy
detail of the business and developed
unusual executive ability. He has
been closely associated with Colonel
0entry for many years and through
this intimate relationship has the ad
vantage of Colonel Gentry's fund of
knowledge receiving a training that
won him rapid advancement.
When Colonel Gentry went to En
rope in 1904 Mr. Borwn was appoint
ed acting general manager and eon
ucted the affairs of the company inl
a satisfactory manner. Since that
time he has handled a large part of
the work in the ofile of vice presi
dent and general manager and has
been in the full confldence of the otm
eers of thle company. His election as
genleral manager is a recognition of
his ability and fitness and is a descrv-I
ed prtmotionl for a tirvless worker.
Mr, Brown is regarded as one of thle|
eominlg men ini thle telephone field.
Remains In Atlanta.
It wvill be a matter of pleasure to
Coir nel Gentry 's friends to know that
his headquarters and residence wvill
remain ill Atlanta. lie will have gen
mri eharge of the affairs of the comn
ipany but will devote his time to the
particnlar duties of vice president
wrhicht have grown to large polpor.
bions by reason of the rapid growth
af the business aind tile investment of
ao many millions of dollars.
Colonel Gentry is well know and
piopular tlhrughout the s01nth and is
osned as one of the ablest tele
pIhone ofiails ill thle coun1try, lHe has
p~erhaps done mMre thanm any one man
to dev-elop the moiephoe inte'rests of
the south1 and has been instrumental
in bringing larme sums of capital into
this section. lHe had faith in the fu

of 62,800 Gallons Per Day,
h'lie work on the new well at the

the vein was struck at a depth of 150

struck was at a depth of 150 feet, and
this is probably' the same vein as in
the old well. Tlie second vein in the
new well was struck at a depth of 270

was 200,000 gallons in 24 hours be
fore the digging of the niw well.
The old well was tested. again on

he two wells have not yet been
tested together, and therefore, it can
not be stated what the additional sup
ply of water will be by the digging
of the new well, but even if there
should be nothing more than the in
creased eflciency of the old well, as
shown by the test on Friday, it would
be a great advantage, and give a suffi
