the railroad Is being delayed on account

Maddox and Councilmen Aldine Chambers
and J. C. Harrison then Introduced a
resolution for a charter amendment which
would make It absolutely illegal for any

WARREN MAY SETTLE
PROBLEM OF STOCKADE
Alderman James E. Warren, chair
man of the council stockade commtt-
mlttee, has a deflnlte proposition for a
ventral location for- tho stockade. Ho
says he can not announce the offer yet;
bat he will call a meeting of hla com
mlttee early next week and pretent It,
and he adda that he believes the other
members of the committee will approve
It
It Is not the project of securing the
county jail for a stockade and building
a new Jail, tho this has been generally
'liscussed, and Is still probable. But
the proposition offered him Is a loca
tion near tho center of the city, to be
purchased. Should It be accepted by
council the stockade property In the
Third ward will bo sold, and the build
ing will be converted Into a technolog

KILLED EDMONDSON
Positively Identified by an eye-witness,
James Glenn, a negro ordercly in Grady
hospital, occupies a cell In the police sta
tion, accused, of the murder ‘of .Henry C.
Edmondson, of 97 Park-ave., who was
shot and mortally wounded by a negro
In College-at, near the hospital, on the
night of November 17.
Tho identifying witness is a negro por
ter In a Decatur-st. establishment, who
says he saw the slayer fire the fatal shot
and run away, and that'Glenn is tlie mur
derer.
C. T. Yarbrough, the young man who
was with Edmondson at the time of the
shooting, will be sent for by Chief of De
tectives Lanford Saturday afternoon and
will have a look at tho negro to see if
he can also Identify him. The officers
are anxiously awaiting the decision of
Yarbrough.
Glenn denies he Is the murderer, or
that he knows anything concerning the
murder. He protests that he was in his
room In the hospital at the time of the
■hooting.

The Ural sight that greeted them as
they left the elevator was a beautiful

children's faces haS never been por
trayed In pictures. , They looked ns tho
they were In a veritable fairy land.
There were large, beautifully dressed
dolls, baby dolls, young lady dolls and
the rag baby was there, too. And then
there were-the women of the store
ready to give the kitchen sets. Eagerly
the children presented their coupons
and tightly clutching their gifts, were
pushed on toward the elevator by the
new arrivals; and every little head was
turned- back for one last glance at the
beautiful toyland.

The
Evening
"Newspaper
A canvass of 135 depart-
ment stores in cities of more
than 75,000 population elic
ited from 102 the unequivo
cal opinion that tho evening
newspaper is a better adver
tising medium than the news
paper published in the morn
ing. The reason is plain to
Bee.
Six days of every week
the morning paper is read
by people on their way to
their offices, and either left
in the street car or tossed
to one side in the office.
The evening paper is car
ried home. The family reads
it. Its contents are likely
to be the subect of dinner-
table discussion. When her
day's household labor is
ended, the. wife sits down
with the evening paper to
read the news and search
the advertisements for bar
gains.
The morning paper is s
sort of casual caller. The
evening paper is a visitor, a
friend,counselor and com
panion. Its influence is far
stronger .with its reader*
than the influence of the has
tily-scanned morning paper.
That is why it produces so
much better results for the
advertiser.
