And when the night was far spent with men haggard and wnn from that Jong parliamentary duel, with body and mind worn and harrassed by heat of atmosphere and heat of feeling, culmi nation came at 11 o'clock Wednesday night In the most remarkable scene ever witnessed In legislative halls of the state. Prone nnd helpless before this mnr.e of difficulty, made possible by the rules of the house, the giant majority fought to end the struggle. But the handtp' of striplings, unafraid of heat of tn< overwhelming sentiment In house and galleries, worried them like terriers throughout' the long day of Titan com bat. The duel opened early In the tiny. It became apparent that the opposition was compactly formed, had planned the line of action carefully and that it was to be purely, palpably nnd unmis takably a game of open filibustering to defeat the crushing majority. Fourteen In Open Fight. Fourteen men, out pf 185, stood ns the leaders of the. opposition. Thir teen were young men, some of them stilt with the bloom of sophomorlc ora tory strong upon them. The fourteenth was a veteran, a man whoeo hairs arc whitened with years and upon whose face ars the lines of advanced life— Captain John J. Slade, of Muscogee. Heading the roll call Is A. Pratt Adams, of Chatham. Slender, beard less, Adams looked and spoke as If the college doors hurt lust loosed him, with the pent-up graduation oration still In hie system. During some dozens of op. « :>rtunltle* In threo-mlnute oxptnna- nns of his vote In the endless chain, Mr. Adams managed to work most of It off on house and galleries. He did ft with utmesf good nature, hut with the Insolence «»f youth In his hearing. Then there was R. R. Allen and C. K. Dunbar, of Richmond; It. B. Blackburn, of Fulton: K. I*, f’hamloe, of Floyd; K. M. Donalnon. of Decatur; Ren Fowler, of Bibb; J. P. Heard, of Dooly; K. R. Hines, of Baldwin; W. R. Huff. Lump kin; R. M. Afoorc. Cherokee; Charles It. Russell, of Muscogee; John .T. Blade, Of Muscogee; Samuel II. Tift, of Dougherty. That practically made up the men who stood back of R. B. Blackburn, of Fulton. In the filibustering game. To these fell the duty of following his leadership with threo-mlnute speeches, so-called, on the endless process of roll calls It. H. Blackburn was the accredited leader of the opposition, and he apparently gloried In his work. The Real Leader. But behind there young men loomed a more potent and forceful tlgure. A man who has been In legislative halls for many years, who has been one of the accredited leader.*- In reform legis lation In Georgia, whose huge bulk and voice has dominated more or less the house for yeurs—Joe Hill Hall, of Bibb. Apparently with the majority In the filibuster on n local bill beginning at 0 o'clock in the morning nnd ending at 6 In the evening, it became unmistak able that the man from Macon was covertly directing the line of action for the obstructionist*. No move was made MEAT OR CEREALS Arguments on food are Interesting. Many persons adopt a vegetarian diet on the ground that they do not like to feel that life hos been taken to feed them, nor do they fancy the thought of eating dead meat. On the other hand, too great con sumption of partly cooked, starchy oats and shear or white bread, pastry, etc., produces serious bowel troubles, be cause the bowel digestive organs (where starch is digested), are over taxed and the food ferments, producing gas. and microbes generate In the de cayed food, frequently bringing on peritonitis and appendicitis. Starchy food Is absolutely essential to the human body# Its best form Is Shown In the food "Orape Nuts," where the starch Is changed Into a form of Sugar during the process of its manu facture. In this way the required food Is presented to the system In a pre- tiigested form and Is Immediately made Into blood and tissue, without taxing the digestive organs. A remarkable result In nourishment Is obtained; the person using Grape- Nuts gains quickly In physical and mental strength. Why In mental? Be cause ths food contains delicate par ticles of Phosphate of Potash obtained from the grains, and this unites with ths albumen of all food and the com bination Is what nature uses to rebuild worn-out cells In the brain. This Is a scientific fact that can be easily proven by ten days' use of Grape-Nuts. "There's a Reason." Read "The Road to Well- vrtp," in pkgs. without consulting him, no step wns taken In that tremendous duel without Ills advice. Time and time again Adams and Dunbar and Blackburn sought out the looming figure and held hurried whis pers. And the light went on. t?p to the late hour when passion suddenly flamed on the floor nnd gal leries, both sfdoH had displayed an even temper. The stripling obstructionists were cool. Insolent, relentless as a Juggernaut. The majority cool, alert, watching every possible break In ths ranks of the opposition or a false move. One Chance To Win. Once during that long and eventful clash the prohibition bill wns before the house. And then only for a twin kle «>r an eye, when by a tnctful move tho obstructionists blocked the way. It came as the burning disk of Old Sol slipped near the western skyline. At 6 o’clock the fight on one local bill crumbled. For I* hours there had been n fight on the motion of R. R Hines at the opening of the session to reconsider the notion of the house in abolishing tho city court of Harris •unty. Throughout tho heat-laden day tho duel on this trivial matter aiged. Move after move Was made to force roll culls. And with debonair bearing Mr. Adams, of Chatham, launched his sophomorlc shafts, ami all tho school of flowery oratory followed tho lead. At 6 o'clock came tho break. Final action was reached on that paramount issue—the question of whether the house should reconsider Its action In abolishing the city court of Harris— and It failed by a vote of 1*»3 to 2. A Shout for Recognition. Instantly a hundred men were on their feet shouting for recognition. Speaker Slaton* his faos stem and wearied by the day'u grueling work, stood hammering with his gavel. Then he stated that ho would recognise no ic. Again scores leaped to their feet and clamored and stormed for recognition. Mr. Whitley, of Bought*, received It, nnd moved that senate bill No. 1 be taken up for consideration, nnd that tho rules of the house be suspended to do so. Then the mulled hand under tho vel vet glove wfts shown. Joe Htll Hall, of Bibb, lumbered to Ills feet and In hts rumbling voice made the point of or der that the motion of tho member front Douglas must be put In writing and submitted to the committee on rules. Tho point of order was sustained by tlie speaker, and the rotund figure of Charles Russell, of Muscogee, struggled to tin upright position and opined that moderation of house bill No. 443 would be In order. 1 appeal from the decision of the chair," shouted Seaborn Wright. Speaker Slaton stated that he based hi* ruling upon rule 40, which pro vides that every motion to suspend the rules for taking up bills, except by unanimous consent, must be submitted In writing and bo reported back by the >s committee. l.’pon this rule I made my ruling, nnd It is absolutely Immaterial to the hair whether the appeal la sustained or not,” declared the speaker. Appeal From ths Chair, Wright then iqnde hn Impas sioned appeal to the members to stand by him In tho appeal from the decision of the chair. Ills speech moved his hearers profoundly, hut before action could be had on the appeal a flood of motions nnd amendments to motions to adjourn came. One fixed the hour of ndjoi until 10:30, another to 11:38, a third to lock and a fourth to 1:05. And the duel opened ngaln. It became ap parent that the majority was becoming restless. Signs of growing Impatience I tit the obstruction methods became pirn rent. Throughout the long day and even ing the crowded galleries had preserved decorum, absorbed In that wonderful struggle going on below. All attempts heer or any character of demon strations were Instantly checked by the speaker, who ruled with an Iron rod. As the shadows of night came on there was no abatement of the crowds In galleries or those packed about halls and corridors. Night brought lit tle relief from the Insufferable heat of the day. Yet the lines of combat were till taut, and only grim determination was apparent on all faces. Once, In filling up his three minutes' time on the roll call for adjournment. Hines, of Baldwin, said In Impassioned language: "Mr. Speaker, apparently no one has pondered the profound Issues wrapped up In my motion to adjourn at 1:05 o'clock. It Is my burning ambition to tell this body the exact relation my mo tion to adjourn bears to the 400 bills Introduced in this house.” This was u fair example of the kind of stuff emptied on the house by the fourteen obstructionists. Most of the talk* were so adroitly phrased that It would have defied the ability of the most profound scholar to have extract, ed an Idea therefrom. As a con*f>*t in Idea-less language It Btands alone in the history of the state. Crisis of the Night. At 10:30 o'clock came the crisis In Us eventful day. up feelings broke the bounds, and there followed one of the most remark able scenes ever enacted in Georgia. Htung by the accusation of Joe Hill Hall that he was responsible for the outbreak In the galleries. Seaborn Wright leaped to his feet with flaming eyes and ringing voice and hurled the Ho across at the towering bulk of the man from Bibb. Pandemonium was unloosed. Messrs. Wright and Hnll rushed upon each oth er, but members Interfered, nnd the trouble was quelled. In the meanwhile the galleries had been cleared, while from outside came n storm of cries, hisses and catcalls. At 11 O’clock the end of the long day came, when Murphy Candler asked for unanimous consent to adjourn. There was no objection. And so ended a memorable day.

The origin of the fire I* un known, but fs thought to be the work| The galleries' pent- of an Incendiary. The consistency with which certain mem ber* dodged going on the record when tho was railed on all motions In the house of representatives Wednesday wns a source of nmneement to tho lenders of tho prohi bition movement. Early In the dny It became evident that there were members of the house who were ting with tho minority on all questions to lay bringing up the prohibition bill when .v wns merely n question of holding up bunds, but there wn* it noticeable switching to tho prohlhfloln side when the roll was colled on questions and a record kept of the proceedings. This condition of affairs wns clearly seen When tho minority would roll up a vote of 35 or 40 or more when there wns a vlvs voce vote, and then when the roll was nailed their following would slump to auy number from 19 * 35. Ono of those who In this tvny sought to Veep his record straight, explained hh by saying that his *'*—*“ “ prohibition, but that he personally wns Sgnlnst the bill. Ho therefore voted to stave off action on the measure ns long ns possible, but would bo compelled to vote for It when It ennio up for passage. This "flopping" of professed prohibition ists materially assisted the minority In suc cessfully filibustering through Wednesday's session, for without their aid nnd with their votes recorded with the prohibition lsts on every question It would have been nn Impossibility for tho minority to muster a one-fifth vote of tho house nt nuy stnge of tho proceedings.
