The developments of the last few days would Indicate that council la go ing to make effort* to acquire some, if not practlrnlly all, of the authority now belonging to the executive committee In the regulating of city primaries. Several members of council are now advising with City Attorney Mayson looking to the adoption of a resolution asking the legislature to give council authority to govern and regulate pri maries In the cltjs of Atlanta. The regulation of city-primarle* tt now In the hand* of the city executive committee. City Attorney Mayson ha* already drawn up n resolution request ing the legislature to provide for the election of aldermen by wurds. a» coun cil are now ejected, another authority which has belonged to the executive committee. The men'iWrx of tne general council who wish to take this authority from the committee. It Is stated, are not sat isfied with this resolution—It Is not sweeping enough. They want the legislature to give council the authority to make any and all regulations It sees (tt to govern primaries. Then council can order that aldermen be elected by wards If tt Is thought best, and other changes o' the present rules governing the hold Ing of primaries In Atlanta may be made. "8uch an ordinance," stated Council man Terrell, chairman of the ordinance committee, "was to have come up ba, fore the ordinance committee Tuesday, but It hud not been drawn up In the shape we wanted It. The committee will consider It at a later session. "This does not contemplate taking from the city executive committee a'l the power ll now has. It merely al lows council to make whatever regula tions It wishes, without havlr.-j to beg the committee to do anything." SECOND HUSBAND FINDS FORMER WAS NEVER DIVORCED Uniform KnighU Danet.

Miller Oo. 1 Special to The Georgian. Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 13.—Joseph E. Bowman, a negro of Jacksonville, was arraigned before Justice of the Peace E. K. Willard yesterday to an swer the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses by producing an allered bogus decree of divorce to Mr*. J. J. Lrk-khnrt, of Atlanta. Oa. The arrest of Bowman has disclosed a very mtxed-up matrimonial affair. In that Mrs. Lockhart ha:, married ihnrlea H. Wolfram, of Jacksonville, and through the alleged fraud of Bowman, ahe has unknowingly committed blgniny and her marriage to Wolfram Is Illegal. Bowman wtlved examination and gave bond In the sum of 11,000. Mr*. Lockhart and Wolfram are white people, but state that they were united In marriage In Jacksonville by Bav. L. B.

STOCK NOW SELLING At 40 CENTS. The block of stock offered at 25 cents was over-subscribed to the exteift of over 17,000 ahares on February I. and ut the meeting nf the Board of Directors held that day It wax decided to offer another small block at 40 cents per share, pending th* completion of our first well, when alt stock will be taken off th* market and no more said to any one until the stockholders of record on that date shall have had an opportunity to purchaa*. In view of the fact that the former Issue was so largely over-subscribed, therefore, we do not expect this pr block to last many days. If It continues to go at the rate It has bean purchased by the old stockholders those who could not get what they wanted at the old figure, we know the present small block of 40-cent stock wilt hot last beyond the present week. $8 * , THE OPPORTUNITY OP A LIFETIME. Even If you were not fortunate enough to secure some of this stock at 25 esnta. you now have th* opportuni ty nr your lifetime to get It at 40 rents and make all the money from your luveatment that you could , wish to make. From 40 It Is going to 76. then to 11.00, and then when oil Is struck skyward* 15,00. 210. 850; there la no telling where the limit will be. With over 12,000 acres nf oil Isases behind us; with th* control of 100,000 acre* additional; with the assurance from eminent chemists that our oil la the bast to be found In this country; with but 20 miles between our properties and Savannah—th* market of the world—this company certainly seems destined to become the greatest independent nil producing company In tha country. With th* view of such enormous returns before you, why ran you not afford to speculate along with us and several hundreds of conservative Georgians for the betterment of the state and Atlanta and your pocket-book? We assure you It la a speculation: we assure you also that It Is a speculation only so far aa the presence of oil In commercial quantities Is concerned, and not In reference to the manner In which your money will be used. That will go Into the development of the properties. Tou will get a square deal and a chance at Immense profflx. We have every reasonable aaxurane* that the oil I* there—a half hundred or more people have told ns that—geologists, chemists, oil men and Georgians It you want to Join us In this great enterprise, let us have your application for stock at once. Many were left on the 2S-cent stock because they put off sending In their order*. . EXPENDING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. This stock la worth more today than It has ever been worth. The deeper this flrat well of ours goes the more valuable does the stock become. With tht well one-fourth completed and with many thousands of dollars' worth of material, machinery, etex on our properties with the element of risk of our never becoming strong enough to go ahead with our work removed, we have assumed a definite shape In the eyas of tha community ana are now Jn form to go ahead aggressively and get the oil from our vast properties. We have tha capital and the energy. We believe there ean be-no reasonable question that the oil 4s thsre. so that all that la between us and the won- derful profits which we all expect Is time. This ws are eliminating aa rapidly aa possible, and within the next la a "Real Gusher;" then you will regret th* fact that ten days we hope to announce to the public that this well block of stock the company Is now offering at 40 cents per share will all be taken Inside of the next seven days; HENCE YOUR BEST INTERESTS DEMAND THAT YOU IMMEDIATELY SEND YOUR APPLICATION FM STOCK TO s. , R. 0.
