WIFE SEARCHES
FOR HER HUSBAND
A SPLENDID COMBINATION ENTRY.
Nym McCullough’s Anna Bain, entered for the coming show.
What will probably prove one of (he
most attractive and moat Interesting
features of the Atlanta Horse Show Is
now being planned by the officials.
This feature Is the “gybrnkana” races
that will be participated In by young
men and women, and which will fur
nish more amusement to the audience
than a comic opera.
One of the proper things to have In a
"gyhmkana" race Is for several young
women to drive pigs, geese, calves,
roosters or something else as hard to
drive around the ring. Instead of har
ness these animals and fowls will be
driven with the aid of pretty blue and
pink ribbons, and suitable prizes wlJJ
be awarded the winners. Already great
interest has been manifested In this
feature, and the Indications are that
the entries will be many.
Other races will be the egg and pota
to races and the watermelon race. In
the egg race a rider must hold an egg
In & spoon and ride around the ring
without dropping It. The .one complet
ing the circuit first without dropping
the egg is the winner. The same will
be done with watermelons under the
arms of the riders. In the potato race
the riders must use long spears to
gather the potatoes from a box, and
then deposit them In another box.
Woman Whips st Show.
Mrs. W. L. Peel and* Mr. and Mrs.
Tom Lumpkin have charge of another
feature that will prove Interesting.
They are arranging for ladles’ classes
where horses will be entered, ridden
and driven by women. Already there
are a large number of entries In these
classes. A meeting will be held at the
residence of Colonel Peel Thursday
night to perfect these plans.
A telegram was received from Au
gusta Thursday aakihg that fifteen
stalls be reserved for Augusta horses.
Equally as many are expected from
several other cities. President Peel an£
the other officials are enthusiastic over
the prospects for the show and believe
It will be the best and most successful
in the history of the state.
The following Is a list of those who
have reserved boxes up to the* present:
J. W. Grant. J. H. Nunnaily. H. M.
Atkinson, Clark Howell, J. R. Gray, W.
L. Peel, R. J. Lowry, W. H. Kiser,

DAZZLING METEORICDISPLA Y
STARTLES OHIO VALLEY FOLK
Harrisburg, Pa., Oct. 8.—With a roar
like that of a cannon, a big meteor
fell In the mountains back of the
Elizabeth river last night, setting Are
to the forest and frightening hundreds
of people. The roar and following re-
R ort as the meteor struck the earth was

ORPHANS’ WORK DAY
ON NEXT SATURDAY
Orphans' Work Day, which was to
have been celebrated last Saturday,
was a disappointment on account of the
rain which prevented outside work, and
the proceeds which were to have been
devoted to the orphans In the homes of
Georgia. The day haa been postponed a
week, and on Saturday of thla week It
Is hoped that those who can afford It
will give a share of their day’s wage or
profits to the orphans' home of their
choice. Rev. H. L. Crumley, of the
home at Decatur, ha* made the follow
ing appeal:
"The hearts of the orphans almost
sank last Saturday as Ihe rain fell and
they knew that their many little friends
could not pick cotton or do outside work
and that the money was so sorely need,
ed for their care.
"Tho cost of living In the United
States has Increased so much, being
nearly double that of ten year* ago,
that most of these homes are In debt
for the food already eaten, and the cold
winter ts staring them In the face. They
will have to receive many this winter.
Four came In to one of these homes this
week. Enlargements and repalrn must
be made.
"These homes hare taken as their
motto: ‘No child must suffer.’ Let all
help them carry It out."

Under the present law there are only
two grades of cotton seed meal allowed

grade and must contain 8 per cent of
ammonia and thoae which fall below
this high standard are known as low
grade meals. The suggested measure
gives to the consumer three grades to
be known as "high grade" and to con
lain the required 8 per cent of ammo
nla, another and new grade to be
known as "standard.” to contain 7 1-2
per cent of ammonia, and those which
fall below this second classification to
be known os ’low grade" and branded
as such. The association voted S. J

elation. In the absence of Secretary J,

Special to The Georgian.
Montgomery, Ala., Oct, 3.—President
Milton H. Smith, of the Louisville and

Governor Comer, In which he announced
that he would coll an extra session of
the legislature, accuses the governor of
Intimidating the members of the legis
lature to make them support tho meaa
ure.
To the governor, Mr. Smith says:
"It doe* not seem to have occurred to
you In teaching the people to take from
the ownere of railways their property
without regard to their property rights,
that some one else may teach them to
bring about a distribution of the prop-
ihly of other than railway corpora
tions; that they may In time fail to
distinguish between capital Invested In
railways (which Is the aggregation of
property by Individuals) and ths aggre
gation of property by Individuals."

this week, es there Is a rule providing
that no matter shall receive considera
tion on the day It Is presented. Friday
Is missionary day.
Of all the questions pending In the
convention, that of creating negro bish
ops Is causing the most heated adx|nce
discussion. There Is a large faction In
the convention which will ndvocate Un
closing of negro missions and schools,
and allow the negro communicants to
scatter to other religious bodies. An
other faction openly advocates the cre
ation of negro bishop* to serve negro
hurehes.
The reopening of the discussion on
the remarrying of divorced persons Is
an Important feature of the program.
Many of the delegates will urge the
passage of a more drastic canon and
pos dbiy the prohibition entirely to re
marriage of a divorced person by any
clergyman of the Episcopal church.

NEW GOLD BADGES
FOR COUNTY COPS
The appearance of the county police
men's badges Is to be changed. Here
after the malefactors must be sensi
tive to the gleam of a gold plated
badge coming down the road If they
would escape the clutches of the law.
Eyes trained to watch for the glint of
a nickel plated shield will be out of
date In modern crime methods, as prac.
ttqed In Fulton county outside the city.
Chief Turner collected the badges
Thuraday morning to have them plat
ed. In giving the reasons for the change
he said:
•There are a number of special rail
road officers who wear badges exactly
like the ones nty men have. They pose
a* county police and cause trouble for
which we get the blame. We are going
to put a coat of yellow on our badges
and If the special officers chose to do
that, too, we will make still another
change:"
