Vienna. Dec. 21.—A great crush of
people attended the auction sale of the
wardrobe of Princess Louise of Bel-
glum, which was brought about by a
broker to whom she had pawned all
ber possessions. A fair sum 'was real-
Uei] on the entire collection, but the
amount fell miserably short of the sum
paid for it, which Is estimated at 1100,.
300.
With the sale went all the posses.
t i >ns of the princess at the time she
was placed In a sanitarium nine years
ag.i by her husband after she had
doped With Count Mattaohlch. After
spending si* years In captivity she
made her escape, aided by Count Mat-
laehlch, and she afterwards proved her
eanity.
Prince Philip then handed her
the wardrobe she had abandoned and
the princess promptly pawned It for
1)3.000. She could not pay the Interest,
which precipitated the auction sale. In
the collection were articles ranging
PRINCESS LOUISE.
from handkerchiefs worth 110 each to
sealskin jackets worth over 11,000,

FOR POLICE DEPT,
Commission Wants 32 More
Policemen, in
1908.
A BIG PRIZE MAY DROP INTO YOUR HAND
The.police department will ask the
finance committee, of the city council
for $246,000. with which to conduct
the department during the year 1908.
This was decided on at the special
meeting of the police commission Fri
day afternoon, at which time the
finances of the department for the
next year were under discussion. The
request of the commission will be pre
sented to the finance committee for
incorporation In the apportionment
sheet.
The main Improvement contemplated
in the police force during the next year
is the addition of* 32 new policemen.
Altho it Is believed crime will be great
ly decreased by prohibition, still the
commissioners and Chief Jennings
deem an Increased police force neces
sary, owing to the rapidly growing pop.
ulatlon of the city.
The commission asked for $275,000
for the department for the present year,
but the finance committee only appro
priated $220,000.

BUT SENDS MONEY
conscience fund has Just been
started by the- Georgia Railway and
Electric Company. At present It con
sists of 25 cents, the amount sent In by
the first conscience-stricken patron of
the road who has made himself known.
Now that the precedent has been es
tablished, It Is believed others will fol
low.
President Arkwright Is Just In re
ceipt of a letter from this patron In
closing a quarter and saying this rep
resents five fares which he owes the
company.
"I didn't get on the cars," the letter
said, “with the Intention of boating the
company. The conductor missed me.
and I wasn’t strong enough to give the
money to him. It has worried me con
siderably, and as I am trying to get
right with God, I felt compelled to send
you this money."
President Arkwright had the money
deposited as the beginning of a con
science fund, and wrote the patron a
cordial letter of thanks and compli
mented him highly on his action.

SELLEHJF LIQUOR
Judge Russell Hands Down
Opinion of Impor-
tance. ^
Interest in The Georgian’s grand prize contest has been redoubled by the ad
ditional extra prizes of $75, $50 and $25 for work up to .January 4.
These extra prizes have served to stimulate those in the race to renewed ac
tivity, and the way the votes are rolling into the office is a revelation.
The fact that 600 extra votes are allowed on each yearly paid in advance sub
scription and 300 for six months’ subscription lias also aroused greater interest.
Great crowds collect around the window of Eugene Haynes’jewelry store in
Whitehall street to gaze upon the great pile <Tf shining $20 gold pieces, $1,000 in all.
This gold represents the grand prize in The Georgian’s contest.

As a sporting event It wasn't much, for not

Any Individual haa tlje rifirht to ar
rest a person violating tho prohibition
law, without the necessity of securing
a warrant.
This Is In substance the opinion of
the court of appeals In a decision writ
ten by Judge Russell in tho case, of
Leon Smith vs. the State. The con
viction of Smith In the city court of
Waycross for Illegally selling whisky
la affirmed by the higher court.
In view of the fact that prohibition
goes into effect In less than two week*.
Judge Russell’s opinion Is of much
Importance Just now*. He says:
Any One Can -Arrest.
"If a private person secs a. violation
of the law against tho selling of Intoxi
cating liquor*, he has the right to ar
rest the Heller who committed tho of-
Guihc In his presence, and he has the
right to seize tho Intoxicants being sold
and produce them as evidence.
"Granting that the sheriff had seized
the whisky Illegally, Its production In
evidence would not be compelling the
defendant to give evidence tending to
Incriminate himself, even though tbe
seizure of the whisky might have been
Illegal. It Is only when by an unlaw
ful search and seizure under an illegal
arrest and tho person 1s compelled to
furnish Incriminating evidence ugainst
himself that such evidence Is not ad-
inlHsIble. No decision of our courts i
prohibits tho admission of evidence In '
pursuance of a legal arrest."

NO PROBATION
BEFORE CHRISTMAS seventh annual reception and banquet
The drunkard’s for.d hopes of proba
tion and liberty during the holidays
were blasted by Recorder Broyles Fri
day when he Informed a long list of
applicants that no more chances to re
form will be extended until after the
hristma* holidays.
“It's too near Christmas," was the
reply of the recorder when the drink
fiends prayed for probation and another
chance. "I fear I would be doing you
an Injustice, for the temptation to
drink is always stronger at Christmas
