MORE AID IS TENDERED
TO MR. AND MRS. LANIER
Few stories In Atlanta reoently have
awakened the sympathy of a generous
public'as did ths recital of the eviction
of Mrs. A. R. Lanier and her sick hus
band. Although neither mads any
appeal for funds and no appeal was
made by The Georgian, many who read
of the troubles which have been heaped
” n this patient little woman and her
husband have responded liberally.
Again Saturday aeveral amounts
were sent to The Georgian office to be
turned over to Mrs. Lanier. Colonel
Harry L. 8chleslnger, who Is always
showing his great heart, sent $6; A. C.
Lampkln, of 105 West Peachtree street,
sent 36, and so did W. E. Whitehead, of
College Park. R. w. Geiger responded
with a dollar, and the employees of
Matthews A Lively, the well known
furniture dealers, of 154 Decatur street,
■ent In $18.60.
Dr. C. L. Lewkowltr, of the Globe
Optical Company, of 29 West Mitchell
street, saw In The Georgian that 51 re.
Lanier'* only pair of eye-glasses were
smashed, and hs was quick to act. Hi
wrote to The Georgian and sent an or
der on his firm .for a new pair of
glasses that she may select. This order
was turned over to the Associated
Charities, and that Institution will tee
that Mrs. Lanier gets ths glasses she
so badly needs.
Mrs. Lanier leaves Saturday for the
country, and will remain there until
her husband recovers sufficiently to be
moved.

bers of some of Portugal's moat noted

The scenes enacted claimed to do

HE THINKS IRELAND
John Redmond Believes
Election in 1909 Will Re
move Obstacle.
New York, Aug. 24.—John Redmond,
the Irish parliamentary leader, I,’
quoted In an Interview printed here
today as certain that Ireland will get
home rule In the near future. After
pointing out the defects In the Blrrel
bill, 5Ir. Redmond Is quoted as say.
Ing:
"I think the government will intro,
duce a measure following the spirit of
the resolution which was passed by t
great majority a little while ago—that
the house of lords should be abolished.
The government will, I believe, tran,.
late the resolution Into a bill. Thla will
be rejected by the house of lords.
"There will be a general election by
the beginning of 1909 at the latest. If
the Liberals win that election by a
substantial majority, the veto of th,
house of lords will, I believe, be limited
or abrogated altogether, and In that
way the real obstacle to the pasug,
of the full measure will disappear.
Meanwhile we are going to prea,
for and expect a bill amending the land
purchaae act of 1903, giving compulsory
purchase powers and breaking up th,
great grating tracts. We Introduced a
bill to this effect and carried It by lit
majority last May. We are awaiting
the action of Lord Durley'e commission,
