The Wesley Memorial church has
established a lecture course which will
be one of the features of the Instltu
tlonal church It Is preparing to erect.

Ing winter.
. The course for this winter was care
fully selected and Includes some of the
best drawing cards on the lyceum plat
form, among them being Mr. Lorado
Taft, of Chicago; Dr. John M. Driver,
of Chicago; Hon. Arthur K. Peck and
Mrs. General Pickett.

SLIGHT WOUND ON ARM'
PROVES FATAL TO MAN.
Special to The Georgian.
Brunswick, Ga., Oct. 9.—Delph Pyles,
negro butcher, has been arrested
on the charge of murdering R. E. Moye,
man from Blackshear. Moye went
to the Brunswick Hospital last week
for treatment for a wound on his arm,
and died about fifteen hours later. He
stated that he had received the wound
accidentally while engaged In i
fiiendly scuffle with a man In Black'
shear. After Moye’s death a warrant

From the letters that Imre been received
by the bfflclals of the fair. It Is evident
thnt as large a crowd will hear William
Jennings Bryan on Saturday, October 19, as
hean! President Roosevelt Just exactly two
years ago to the day. The visit of Lieuten
ant-Governor Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, of
New York, Is also expected to draw one of
the biggest crowds that has visited Atlanta
tor a long time.
Mr. Clmnler’s mention as one of the can
didates for the Democratic nomination for
the presidency In 190& has added Interest to
his visit to the South, and many will come
at that time to learn bis principles and
compare him with William Jeunlngs Bryan.
Many Fine Amusements.
While every care has lteen taken with the
special occasions, and every d/»y will be
filled with them, the fair officials have
done everything In their power to secure
the best amusement features for the vis
I tors.
Where there were only nine amusement
features lust year, there will be fifteen
this year, led by the biggest attraction of
the conntry, the “101 Ranch." with Its ran!

Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 9.—Vander
bilt's defeat of Kentucky 40 to 0 Sat
urday created annslderable surprise.
While Vanderbilt played a good game
and the new men showed up well, yet
Kentucky was surprisingly weak on
defense.
The formations Kentucky used on
defense were adapted to the old stifle
of the game, and Vanderbilt's quarter
back soon took advantage of It.
What luck there was In the game
broke In favor of Vanderbilt.
Of the new men, the work of Morton
was conspicuous. He gives promise of
coming nearer to filling Manler’s shoes
than It was nt first thought possible.
He runs strong and hard, though lacks
the speed and power of Manler.
Hasslock and McLain both showed
up well at tackle. They didn't play
resourcefully on the defense, but were
stubborn nnd hard to gain over. Sher
rill and King, guards, both charged too
high.
It It yet hard to tell Just how these
men will acquit themselves against
strong opposition.

In the first half, by a series of back
and end runs the High School carried
the ball within four yards of their op
ponents' goal, but on a trial kick for a
goal, which failed to work, they lost one
of their best chances to score. In the
second half, while trying for a goal,
they lost on a fumble, while failure to
make the required gain on tho third
trial loit them the ball.
High School this year, has one of the
finest lines the school ha* ever devel
oped, and G. M. A.'s failure to get

much punting.
Captain Whitley was the man called
on to do this, and he nobly responded,

At Ponce DeLeon
Through tha courtesy of the Georgia
Railway and Electric Company tha
Vanderbilt team, which arrtvee here
Thursday morning on Ita way to An
napolis, will get the use of Ponce De
Leon park for football practice.
The Commodores reach the city about
7;30. They will take breaktaat and
after a short rest will go to the park
and get a brisk workout, their only one
of the day. About noon they catch the
train for Washington.
PLAY GAME IN ATHENSs
PASS UP KNOXVILLE.
Hone from the coach. A new charging
machine has been constructed, which Is
pretty roughly handled. It Is a heavy
platform upon wheels, against which
the men charge, nnd Is Intended to de
velop the use of the hands on defense.
The team leaves Nashville Wednes
day night at 9:30 o’clock, and will
nrrlvo In Atlanta early Thursday morn
ing. During the lay-over there of sev
eral hotrs the men will be given a
workout. The team later In the day
takes the Seaboard Air Line for Wash
ington. nnd will arrive In Washington
at 10; 15 a. m. Friday. They lay over
In the capital dty a few hours, and
then will proceed to Annapolis for prac
tice. An attempt will be made to have
the game called early, so that the squad
may -leave - Annapolis-on the 6r3‘> train
for Baltimore, where n boat will take
the hoys to Norfolk Sunday morning.
At it la contrary to the rules of the •
university to travel on church hours '
Sunday morning, the boys will stay In .
Norfolk until Sundny night, returning
by the same route by which they went,
arriving In Nashville Tuesday morning.
During the trip there will be much
talk over all of tho plays and much
lecturing from the roach. A black
board will be carried along, so that
diagrams may be used, showing the po
sition nnd duty of each man In every
play. At station* the men will fre
quently pile out for a little limbering
up.
Knelt man on the Vanderbilt team is
confident of making a good showing
against tho Navy, nnd each has hopes
of a favorable outcome. Upon dope, of
courae Vanderbilt can hardly expect
to win. Tho Navy has the hulk of her
team back, which defeated the Army
Inst year/ and which was regarded ns
the best team she hae had In years.
In addition, the Navy will have had
three games, while Vanderbilt has had
but one. Vanderbilt will further be
handicapped by tho long, hard trip,
which breaks up the hours of training
and also the hours of rest, as two
nights will he spent on n sleeping car.
There will be no opportunity for Van
derbilt to take the Navy by aurprlse.
for the Navy will be In fop form. In
asmuch ns Harvard ploys them a week
after Vanderbilt, nnd the Midshipmen
have, therefore, been trying for some
time to get Into best form, llut dope
sometimes goes wrong, nnd the feeling
le growing that the Navy Is going to
have a hard time humbling Vanderbilt.
The newspapers of the East have
paid Illlle attention to the Vnnderbllt-
Annnpoll* game, and should Vanderbilt
lose by 16 points, they will doubtless
run a brief Item saying that Vander
bilt wna about the equal of Dickinson
College. It will be remembered thnt
the Navy defeated Dickinson College
15 to 0 last Saturday. It should ho
borne In mind, however, that the
Navy'n llnc-up was. composed almost
entirely of substitutes during that en
tire game. Captain Douglass being In
but a very few minutes In the last
half. The Navy will undoubtedly use
Its strongest line-up throughout the
game with the Commodores.
TECH TEAM PREPARING
FOR DAHLONEGA BATTLE
Two games will be on tho bill at Tech
park Saturday afternoon. In addition
to the Tech-Dahlonega contest, there
will be a game between the scrubs and
some local prep team.
Coach Helsman continues to put his
men through a severe course of sprouts
In preparation for Saturday's game.
After the stinging defeat that Georgia
handed the North Georgians, the team
Is not greatly feared here, but the Yel
low Jackets will try to make a good
showing against the up-state people.

Chicago Oct. 9.—Ty Cobb, the wonder of the year In baseball, was

The greatest batter In tha American League did not get n hit
Neither did he steal a base nor get a put-out nor an assist.

He got a medal before the game started and a lot of applause every
time he came to bat, all of which he accepted gracefully.

Paris, France, Oct. 9.—A sensation
has been caused by the remarkable con
fession of Antone Thomas, of Cler-
mont-Ferand. arrested, with hla mother
and brother, charged with complicity
In the theft of the famous cope of Orth,
which belonged to the state, and waa
valued at 3120,000, from the Church of
Ambasac, near Limoges.
For months precious relics have been
disappearing from churches, creating
the Impression that a gang of thieves
was systematically at work. Thomas,
who gave himself up to clear his mother
and slater, now assert* that this theory
Is correct. He declares that after tha
passage of the church and state separa
tion law and the taking of the chutvlt
Inventories began, antiquaries of Paris,
some of whom ere millionaires, hired
him and others to go through the
country and bribe the parish priests to
surrender the relies and substitute
counterfeits, which could be turned over
to tha state.
