Georgian’s Story Causes In
quiry at Orphans’
/ Home.
Of the seven children whose pictures
were published In The Georgian Tues
day with the announcement that they
were for adoption, Willie Llghtfoot, a
sturdy 4-year-old boy. was the first
to be Inquired about.
Early Wednesday morning a man in
Atlanta colled up the Decatur Orphans'
Home nnd asked .about Willie. He
seemed "greatly Interested 'and said he
would take the matter up later.
Il Is thought probable that all seven
of the children will be adopted soon by
people who are willing to give them
sure enough homes. However, an the
little walfe continue to bo sent to the
Institutions, the eupply of babies to he
token es Christmas presents will hard
ly run short.

Washington, • Dec. 19.—During the
discussion yesterday of his resolution
directing the senate to Wveetlggte the
causes of the recent financial flurry
Mr. Culberson, the minority leader,
openly charged that the election of

best Interests of the people.
The administration's financial policy
vns severely criticised, and Chairman
Aldrich, of the finance committee, wlio

"The Jug trade" went to the bad at
the Interaaction of Forsyth and Ala-

day morning, and Incidentally tied up
street car service on that line for more
than an hour.
huge two-horse van, loaded with
empty two-gallon Jugs, started to cross
the tracks, headed toward! Whltehall-
st. A Magnollo-st. car buzzed up, crum
pled a rear wheel of the vnn and
smashed out a window In the front of
the car. Jugs tumbled onto the bel-
glan blocks and smashed, and the van
lay squarely across the Forsyth-st. car
track on the eastern side.
An advisory board assembled at once
from every direction. Advice was given
prodigally, also facetious remarks. No
body volunteered, however, to do any-
i thing to straighten things out. The
street car men stood around with hands
pin pocket and the negro driver, after a
• few futile effort* to make his team drag
;he wagon out of the line of traffic, un-
I hitched, led hla horses to one side and
! opened up a lively discussion about
1 things to a group of friends.
Presently a couple of mounted officers
I 1 rode up, probably stimulated to appear
on the scene by complaints of tbe car
men. From somewhere came a man
, "who does things." He made everv-
: body take hold. and. without much
effort, the big van was rolled to one
I side. ,
