SENA TE PASSES THE PROHIBITION BILL;
FIRST VICTORY WON BEFORE ASSEMBLY
WHEN RESULT
Vote of 34 to 7 For
the Hardman
Law.
HON. SEABORN WRIGHT
SOUNDS TIMELY WARNING
TO FRIENDS OF PROHIBITION
I think it well at this time to state that a poll of the house of represen
tatives discloses the fact that at least two-thirds of the members of the
house favor the prohibition bill.
In view of the efforts that I am reliably informed are Being made to in-
duoe certain members of the house who favor the bill to pair with its oppo
nents or refrain from voting, I desire to state:
1. It takes 92 votes to pass the bill in the house.
2. For any member of the house to refrain from voting is in effect a
vote against the blit.
3. For any member of the house to pair with an opponent of the bill is
in effect a vote against the bill.
A word in conclusion: The enemies of the bill are at work, and every
friend of the measure within and without the house should double their ef
forts to secure its overwhelming passage. SEABORN WRIGHT.
SOUNDS WARNING.
FELDER FAILS IN
ATTEMPT TO DELAY
Seven Senators Only Stick
to Anti-Prohibition
Standard.
By a vote of 34 to 7 the Georgia sen
ate Saturday at 11:25 o’clock passed
the Hardman prohibition bill.
Before a gallery packed to lta ca
pacity with' ministers and men and
women who had worked and prayed for
years, the senate placed Itself on record
as favoring complete and sweeping
prohibition for Georgia after January
1, 1903.
Action came upon the heel of an ef
fort of Senator Felder to postpone pas-
oHfie measure imhlncxt Tuesday.
In that test vote the strength of the
advocates of prohibition was clearly
shown, as his motion was defeated by
a vote of 30 to 11.
Senator Felder Immediately moved
the previous question, which would
* ave placed the bill on Its pasage with-
ut an opportunity for amendments to
"me up. He was again defeated, and
everal amendments were read.
An amendment by Senator Dobbs to
strike that part of the bill which pro
hibited the manufacture of Intoxicants
In Georgia was lost.
An amendment by Senator Martin
revert to the local option law In the
ent the prohibition measure should
•ver be repealed, was also lost.
Amendments requiring that a patient
tmm actually be under the care of the
physician who furnishes the prescrip
tion for alcohol, to allow the sale of
pare alcohol to bacteriologists for sci
entific purposes and to abolish dispen
saries and forbidding agents or officers
"f the state from purchasing liquors
"ere passed.
Then the bill as amended In com'
rr.lttee and open senate was passed.
How They Voted.
Of those who voted against the bill
Senator Felder represented the district
In which Macon Is the leading city.
Senator Gordy Is from Columbus; Sen-
ntor Stephens Is from Savannah. It Is
rather remarkable that a group of sen-
al °r* from one section voted against
Mil. They were:
H. B. Griffin, of the Twenty-first; T.
” Felder, of the Twenty-second; A. J.
Johnson, of the Twenty-third, and
crank Gordy, of the Twenty-fourth.
Senator Stephens represents the First
district; Senator Mattox, the Fourth;
Senator Brock, the Forty-fourth.
An atmosphere of tense expectancy
Pervaded the senate chamber at 10

NIGHT OF ALARM A T GRADY;
BURGLAR AND LIVE CORPSE
The Grady Hospital was turnsd top
sy-turvy, the nurses were thrown lnt>
a consternation of thrror, and the doc
tors and porters were transformed Into
wild men by the attempt of a burglar
to enter the nurses’ home early Sat
urday morning, followed by au event
even more Interesting and much more
horrifying.
All was peaceful in the nurses home.
The snores of the pretty experts of
the bandage floated out In harmony
and unison. Suddenly, simultaneously,
a wild shriek, beside which an Indian
war whoop would resemble a funeral
hymn, was heard. It was the clear
contralto of Miss Bernice Mears. Re
inforcements shortly came from the
tenor of Miss Belle Barren. Both are
pretty nurses. . ..
The form of a man *was seen In the
Indow. He was trying to climb In
side. As It happened, the nurses had
been troubled considerably here of late
bv neeplng Toms and burglars, and tho
sight of this man climbing In was Just
enough to transform the smoldering
embers of scare Into a biasing bonfire.
The man quickly made his depart-
•re The hurses fled in disarray and
dishabille, shortly being Joined by fif
teen others who were sleeping there.
A search followed, but without re
sults. About 3 o’clock In the morning
a negro filed. He was taken to the
morgue by two of the negro porters.
An elevator runs to the basement of the
nnnex, where the morgue Is. When th
elevator came up. the negroes were
thrown Into Indescribable alarm by tho
prostrate form of a man coming up on
the car.
They could not understand how
corpse could have got on th* elevator.
But, brave ns Hons, they pulled the ele-
vuter up. When It reached the top, the
supposed corpse turned over and sold,
"ugh."
That waa enough. The porters an
expected to return In time for .work
Saturday night. It was learned that
the man was not dead, but dtad drunk.
At the police station, he said hla
name was A. W. Prince, and he Is a
tool sharpener at the marble works at
Ball around. He fell through, the open
door of *he morgue and lay on the ele
vetor, thinking It was a bsd.
Physicians nt the Grady aay that
Miss Mears and Mias Oarren will not
feel like themselves for several days.

Washington. July 18—By the ejection
of two Japanese spies In the navy yard
In this city, the 'government of the
United States has shown conclusively
that It has no Intention of allowing
Japanese to get any more Information
than la necessary about the military
strength and equipment of this coun
try.
The two Japanese who were ejected
from the navy yard on the order of
Commandant E. H. C. Leutse
making sketches and notes of the works
In the yards. They had been In the
yard for several hours when their
movements aroused the suspicions of a
navy officer.
He' Immediately notified the com
mandant of the presence of the Japa
nese and their occupation. This notl-
flratlon was followed by the command,
ant’s command that' the Japanese be
expelled from the yard. This was done.
The commandant then Issued an or
der, which Is now posted In every
building In the yard, and with which
every man In the navy yard has been
made familiar, saying that no person
shall be allowed to make sketches of
any of the works or buildings unlels
that person has a permit so to do.

In an editorial In The World today.
Mataukata Is here with Admiral Yam

“The Japanese are puesled at all this
war talk," he continues. "There is
no war party In Japun. Perhaps 10,000
of 50,000,001) people are excited. Here
these wou|d be termed 'Jingoes.'

With an empty shotgun across her
lap and her bulldog, Dan, by her side,
Mrs. Lixsle Sumlin Friday morning
seated herself on a cracker box In
the center of a piece of property at
Holderness and Luclle avenue, the own
ershlp of which the disputes'with R.
F. O'Shields, and guarded what she
termed her rights, threatening to shoot
the first man who stepped over tha
line.
Early In the morning she put to
flight W. B. Saunders, a young man In
the employ of Mr. O'Shlelds, and two
negroes, John Pltterd and John Phil
lips, who were preparing to build a
fence along what Mr. O'Shlelds claims
Is the real line of the property.
The strategy of Deputy Sheriff Park,
er, of Judge Orr's court, and Mrs. Sum-
lln.s- belief that she could right the
matter In the courts, resulted at about
11 o'clock In her coml/ig to town with
a view to substituting legal methods
for those of a shotgun and bulldog.
Mrs. 8umlin Explains.
"It was this way," explained Mrs.
Sumlin to a Georgian reporter Friday
morning aa she shifted the gun on her
knees and glanced with a keen eye to
where Mr. Saunders was working
across the street. "This Is my proper
ty—40 feet of It. I put that strand
of barb wire around It to let them
know where the line was. They rnmo
over this morning and starred to build
a fence. I got my shotgun and dog
and came out and told them to got off.
If I had let them build that fence then
I would have to sue In .-..in’., hot now
tlley-ve-got to sue me., \viilch lx bet
ter.”
For some time there has been trouble
about the 40 feet of land. Mr. O’Shlelds
states that he has deeds to It and pro
posed to build two houses. One on
disputed property is already In the
course of construction, and Mr. Saun
ders was told to start a fence which
would Include the contended property.
However, when armed with hoes and
shovel, Mr. Saunders and the two ne
groes went out at 7 o'clock Saturday
morning to begin work, Mrs. Sumlin
Issued from the house with a gun In
one hand and leading the white bulldog
by the other.
’’Get Outl” She Said.
'Get out of here. This Is my prop
erty! ” she cried.
The next Instant the three men were
standing In the middle of the road. Mrs.
Sumlin Informed them that they were
not to return, under penalty of being
shat. ,
"Reckon we had better knock off
for a day,” called John Day. a third
negro, from a safe distance down the
road. Mr. Saunders communicated with
his employers In the city and set about
other business at an unoffending dis
tance from Mrs. Sumlin, who had one
of her children bringing out the crack
er box.
It was a picturesque situation. Mrs.
Sumlin with a determined expression
on her face remained In the middle of
the piece of property. The neighbors
came by and offered suggestions about
getting u lawyer and other things, but
Mrs. Sumlin stayed right where she
was for six hours.
She talked pleasantly to a Georgian
reporter, Informing him of the vicious
nature of the hcalthy-looking bull dog.
Every now and then she stroked the
barrel of the gun. H. M. Sumlin, her
husband, walked about the place scout
ing, while his wife sat guard.
Bailiff Uses Strategy.
This lasted until the arrival of Dep
uty Sheriff Parker, who, In cltlsena’
clothes and wearing a conciliatory smile,
came ddwn (he road, paused and said
cheerily:
They tell me you are keeping them
off.”
"Yes,” replied Mrs. Sumlin, some
what grimly.
Mr. Parker advanced, making a kind
of detour and bringing himself up be
side Mrs. Sumlin after the manner of a
ship. Then the smile faded from his
face and he put a strong band on the
barrel of the gun. There was a little
pulling back and forth, both partlcl
pants keeping silence. At length Mrs.
Sumlin relinquished the weapon and
Immediately Mr. Parker produced a pa
per. Then It was found that the gun
was empty.
While Mrs. Sumlin read the warrant,
Mr. Parker kept a sharp eye on the
dog, which seemed perfectly peaceful.
Mrs. Sumlin consented to go to court,
but requested her ion, Joe. to keep
trespassers off the lot until her return.
Mrs. sumlin appeared before Judge
Orr, who put her under bond and set
the case for Monday at 10 o'clock. In
the meantime all trespassers must
keep off her property until the court
settles the question of ownership.

The two young officer# came ahead

courtesy.
In going over the battlefields of
Sherman’s march, the army officers had
to seek the assistance of old Con
federate veterans to complete their
studies of the situations of tha troops
during the cnmpalgn. Everywhere they
received the best of treatment and met
none of the opposition which greeted
Father Sherman last year when he

This Is the positive statement of
Park Woodward, general manager of
the waterworks department.
"If council will otnploy a disinter
ested expert hydraulic engineer who
knows his business," continued the
general manager, "and the engineer,
after careful Investigation, says I am
wrong In what I did or what I recom
mended, I will 'tender my resignation.”
The general manager then places one

"I will agree to this If the members

Investigation will consent to n-elgn if

think. Now, let the Investigators como

In view of the repeated domande by
eome for the employment of an expert
hydraulic engineer and the etatement
by W. C. Shearer, a cltlien-memi r of
the committee, that the general man
ager should be requested to resign, this
declaration by Colonel Woodward Is of j
peculiar Interest and significance.
“Let Them Reeign."

Woodward, "went out to tho water

The committee then camo bock and the
