North Carolina woman," for the raur'
<ler of her husband. Conductor C. W.

FOR THREE ASSAULTS
HE GETS 55 YEARS
MeadvIUe, Pa., Sept. 13.—Henry Lehnn,
who confeaaed to robbery and three nmmulta
on 14-year-old Anna Whitehead nt Turners-
vllle, Pa., near here, about a month go, hna

•olitary confinement In the western peniten

Atlanta Man Backs His
Boat Against That of Mil
lionaire Miller.
New York, Sept. 13.—Even the driv
ing of a tandem zebra team down
Broadway has now been eclipsed by
Russel Hopkins, young Atlanta mil'
llonalre, who has an estate at Irving'
ton-on-the-Hudson. The latest thing
which brings the young Southerner In
the limelight la a friendly wager he
has Just mado with Major J. S. C. Mil
ler, another millionaire who does things
other millionaires do not do.
In order to see who pays for a little
dinner at the St. Regis, the Atlanta man
and Major Miller will spend a mere
trifle of something like 140,000 or 350,-
000 In a yacht race to Panama and
back. Each owns a fast, sea-going
yacht, but It necessary, each will buy a
new vessel, and-that brings on more
talk and the blowing In of another
fortune.
Panama was decided upon as tho end
of the Journey because Mr. Hopkins Is
consul fo rthe republic of Panama In
his home city of Atlanta. He knows
President Aamdor -well and when he
gets there he will be President Ama
dor’s guest.
Major Miller owns the fast yacht
Ethelsa. Mr. Hopkins owns another,
the Atlanta. The Atlanta can turn off
the knots at the rate of 28 per hour
and then some. Major Miller saya the
Ethelsa Is Just as fast.
The two are friends and there has
been no little rivalry between them In
auto racing and In trials of speed on
the waters of the Hudson. But there
has never been a real test.
"The Atlanta can make tho Ethelsa
look like a canal boat," laughingly re
marked Mr. Hopkins to Major Miller.
"Not In a thousand years,” replied
Major Miller. "The Ethelsa can run
rings around that ro wboat of your,
and then some.”
“Not for a dinner at tho St Regis,'
came back the Atlanta man, "and
you're on for a race that wll bo a
race.”
Then he made his proposition to race
to Panama and back and Major Miller
was game.
"It's done," he said, and November 1
was agreed upon a, the date of start
ing.
Since coming to New York Mr. Hop-
kins has been almost constantly In the
limelight. He owns a magnificent es
tate on the Hudson and one of his fads
there >is a menagerie of wild animals.
SAYS GAS COMPANY
REFUSED SERVICE
Because a man, meeting adversity, was
forced Into bankruptcy, owing the Atlanta
Gas Light Company a bill, the company ab
solutely declines to furnish him with gns,
even through a slot meter, which demands
cash in advance for all service glveu, ac
cording to this man’s complaint.
A few days ago this roan came to tho of
fice of the railroad* commission and told his
story. His frankness and his evident earn
estness made an Impression on Chairman
McLendon. The gentleman stated that he
was forced to go Into bankruptcy recently
through adversities that had overtaken him.
One of bis creditors was tho Atlanta Gas
Light Company. Though all debts listed
by him In the bankruptcy court ore barred
bv law, be Is nevertheless paying them as
fast ns possible. He asked the gas company
to put a slot meter In his house, hut he anvs
the company refused on tho ground that ho
owed it h debt.
He asked the commission to Investigate
such discrimination, and It will be tnkeu
up at the next formal meeting of tho body.
Body of Man Believed To Be
Sam White Is Found
Near City:
Mystery shrouds the cause of the death
of a man whose name is supposed to be
Bam White, and whose body was found
early Friday morning lying beneath an oak
tree near the River car line, with a half-
empty whisky bottle close by.
The coroner's Jnry. after an Inquest at
Barclay & Brandon's undertaking establish
ment at noon, brought In a verdict of death
from au unknown cause. There were no
marka of violence, no evldenco of anything
like poison, no symptoms of heart disease,
and County rhylslclan Hurt stated that the
amount of whisky he believed the dead man
drank was not sufficient to cause death. ‘
That it was not murder for robbery was
evidenced by $11.45 found In the man’s
pockets. Charles Prance and L. J. Cash,
who reside tn Bellewood avenue, testified
that they talked with tbs man at 12 o'clock
Thursday and that he was, then a stranger
to them. They gathered from his conversa
tion that he was a carpenter moving to
Atlanta from somewhere near Marietta. He
said bis name was Sam White and that his
family would come to Atlanta later on.
When County Officers Pope and Whitfield
arrived oti tho scene Friday morning nt 6
o’clock the body lay beneath the tree In a
natural position, as though be were sleep
ing. Tbs dead man was about 45 years old
and wore a brown felt hat, a bluo shirt, s
pair dark striped trousers and no coat.
There were no papers or other means of
Identlflcstlon on hta person. The first two
fingers of bis right hsnd bad apparently
been Injured. Bo far no relatives have been
found. The body will be held for several
days.
TO PROVIDE RELIEF
Says Louisville and Nash
ville Has Declared
Embargo.
ATLANTA COLLEGE OF PBARM4CY
Up tn date. We teach men to be flrst-rlass pharmacists and tlrst-class
chemists also. We have a greater demand for our graduates than we can
supply. The Pure Food and Drugs act is making the demand greater than
ever. Addreas /
GEORGE F. PAYNE, Ph 8. Dean, 501-2 Armstrong St, Atlanta, 6a.
Declaring that the Louisville and
Nashville railroad has placed an em
bargo against It on cars, the Georgia
Manufacturing and Public Service Com.
pany brings complaint to the railroad
commission and asks for relief. Unless
It Is given, the company declares that
It faces bankruptcy.
Last December the Public Service
Company, of Marietta, which furnlshee
the city with Ilghte, power and water.
Buffered heavily by fire. Preparations
were made at once for rebuilding, and
this work waa progressing most satis
factorily when the alleged embargo
was placed on It.
Owing to the peculiar situation ex
isting In the work of rebuilding, the
public service company had to take
cars of material delivered to their
tracks not In the order of receipt, .but
as certain material was needed. That
car might arrive a day or so after
another already on the tracks.
This often held cars much longer
than the free time of 48 hours. The
company, however, did not decline pay
ment of demurrage chargee for over
time.
However, the Louisville and Nash
ville complained that this system of
unloading seriously obstructed busi
ness, and Anally declined t’o deliver
any r.mro cars until all on the tracks
wore unloaded. The public service com
pany etates that this practically means
bankruptcy to It, unless cars with nec
essary material are delivered prompt
ly. Rellof through the commission Is
sought.
The case Is set for a hearing by the
commission on next Wednesday, and
will be taken up then, unless litiga
tion, beginning In courta Monday, pre
vents.

tomorrow morning look out for the big Her

COTTONPICKERS
HARD TO FIND
Special to The Georgian.
Columbus, Go., Sept. 13.—The fields
are white with cotton all around Co
lumbus, and every farmer has his
whole family In the fleld every day
gathering In the fleecy staple. It la
hard to get pickers and a good price Is !.
being offered, but none but negro worn- '
en and children will work at picking
cotton, the men refusing to work at '
this kind of labor.
Cotton Is beginning to come In fast j
and tho prices realized are causing the *
farmers to use every effort to get their i
cotton to market.
BROKER WIRE MEN
QUIT THEIR KEYS
IN NEW ORLEANS
New Orleans, Sept. 18.—A strike of
telegraph operators has been called on '
tho wires of Hayward. Vick & Clark at
13:16 p. m. The operators claim that
the Ann repudiated their contract with
the union In that they asked for delay
In arbitrating some differences. •
Heyward, Vick & Clark have a re
lay ofllce In Atlanta, but the three op
erators employed by them here did not
quit work.
The dispatch from New Orleans
seems to Indicate that tho strlko on
the lines of this Arm Is general, but
this Is denied by the Atlanta operators
working for the Arm. President T. J.
Bishop, of the local Commercial Teleg
raphers' Union, Is employed by this
Arm.
It Is said to be the view of the Arm's
operators here that the difference be- 1
tween the New Orleans operators and
the Arm Is purely local and that thev
can not call out other operators. It is
said that the New Orleans operators ;
signed an unfavorable contract and are
