Council Monday afternoon adopted a reso- lution by Councilman Martin, Inviting the wblaky men of the city to remain In At lanta after the prohibition law goea Into effect and to abire in the future growth and prosperity of the city. The resolution was Adopted by a unani mous vote.

He had been arrested the night be fore for bilng drunk on the etreet. The police say that he has been on a spree for several weeks.

A few minutes later the turnkey heard a gurgling sound that took 7.1m back to Horner’s cell. He found Hor ner lying on the floor.' except for his head, which was held from the floor by a cord which circled hln neck. He cut It quickly Bird liberal appli cations of cold water brought Horner back to consciousneaa. He had twisted his necktie Into a cord and slipped one end of a noose Into the chain which held his bunk. Then he had put the larger end of the noose about his neck and rolled off the bunk.

MAD DOG SCARE AMONG NEGROES A mad dog scare has been thrown Into the negro community of South Atlanta, and so far no legal method of abating the alarm of the residents has been discovered. As a result there le •ome excitement In the settlement. A dog belonging to a negro named Sparks went mad Sunday a week ago and before he was killed the animal hit his master And several dogs In the neighborhood. Sparks Is taking treat ment at the Pasteur Institute, with lit. tie danger of serious results. The bitten dogs are the so-iroo of alarm. It Is stated that their owners will neither kill them nor keep them tied up. The county police were ap peal to by the frightened mothers, but while they are doing what they can. It Is said that there Is no law requu Ing an owner to kill his dog unless the animal Is mad. The present outlook Is that the pop ulace will merely have to wait and ace whether the dogs are mad. taking, the risk of Infection In the mean time. DEATHS.

Far beyond any of the vaudeville bills of previous weeks was that which pleased a large audience at the Casino Monday night. Possibly It was the pleasing contrast with these other bills, none of which has been exceptionally strong, thnt made the performance shine so bright ly—but shine It did. The bill has three high-class fea tures—Golden and Hughes, black face comedians; Armeta, the dancer, and Iris a and Lorrclla, grotesque acrobats. Probably their comparatlv.o merit Is In the order named. Golden and Hughes, especially the balloon-shaped one, are about as clever In hundllng the negro dialect aa they get to be. They got off any number of funny stunts nnd got away with several clev. erly executed songs. Armeta wns the headliner for the week previous and she proved plenty good enough to keep for another. As graceful as the . butterfly which she represents In one of her dances, and as pretty as the snow-white Illy In the Illy dance—turn on the hose!—well, that's Armeta. Inaa and Lorrella, grotesque acro bats, closed tho performance with a splendid act, some of their acrobatic feats being entirely new In Atlanta. The little fellow of the Burrows- Travls Compuny Is an unusually good dancer and managed by his nimble feet to dance through an otherwise dull sketch without serious casualties. The Misses Bruce started the ball a-rolllng with "songs and dances”— dances every now and then, mostly then. Both are good to look at and thev Imd a huppy selection of songs. Barring a slight lack of confidence In themselves, the act was well worth while. Special to The Georgian. Augusta, Ga., Aug. 8.—It Is reported that arrangements are being made to establish a dispensary In North Au gusta, Just across the river, In South Carolina, from the city of Augusta, which will be "dry" when prohibition goes Into effect on January 1.

BROKER SENDS BULLET INTO BRAIN New York, An*. 6.—After having bidden hi* friend* ft cheerful good night, W. 8. Alley, n prominent member of the New York stock exchange, walked Into hi* room recovered consciousness. GRESS FURNITURE BOUGHT BY WIFE Pastime Theater. Every net a hit. That Is the verdict of the audience which attended the Pastime Theater performances Monday afternoon and evening, when the new vaudeville bill of the week was put on. Harrison, West und Harrison, featur ing Master Petit In his wooden shoe dance, are a hit from the start. Dar- row and Mitchell, In piano Imitations, songs and dances, followed with a line of entertainment different from any ever seen on this stage. Ed Morley, In his eccentric dances, created a rip ple of amusement that grew Into ap plause before the act was concluded. As a Hebrew monologulst, Earl Snow, the comedian, has a Une of Jokes that put hint Into a class by himself. Miss Annette Stlnburne, with her Illustrated songs, brings a strong bill to a happy close. Baldwin's Military band gives a splendid concert each evening at 7 o'clock, and this Is always a pleasing feature. Matinees are held dally. Night performances are continuous. Through scents, Mrs. O. V. Cress, who recently sued for dlvorco from her bue- Isinit, a prominent Georgia lumberman, Tuesday morning bought ber household property for 11,400 st public auction, la front of the court house. The property consist-d of furniture. bric-a-brac, chins- wnro and other household streets.
