According to tho figures South Caro lina will have 1,250 men at Chlckamau- ga, while Georgia will send In men and officers some 7,650, which ought to be ■.ip-i—» evidence that this state will lend In the number of national guard at the big eneampmenL Committee of Lawyers Ap pears Before Spccinl Ju diciary Committee. The etat# needs a rearrangement of Its Judicial circuits, said Judge Joel A. Sweat, of Waycrots, Thursday af ternoon before the epectal Judiciary committee of the house, of which lion. Bob Rlackbum Is chairman. Further more, he contended that there should be an Increase of Judges. Judge Sweat, Attorney Miller, of Weycross, and Judge T. A. Parker, of the Brunswick circuit, were before the committee to urge the passage of the bill to divide the ten counties of that circuit Into two. five or which were to remain and constitute the Brunswick circuit, the other five to be designated the Waycrof* circuit. This bill was prepared by a commit tee of lawyers of the circuit, who held a convention In Brunswick to devise some plan whereby the congested dock eta In that circuit might be relieved and the burden of He overworked Judge lightened. Judge Parker nt the earned solicita tion of this committee of lawyer! ad dressed the houso committee and urged a division of tho circuit, ns under the growing pressure of litigation he could not give that etudy and consideration to the questions brought before him that their Importance desorved. It was rotated before tho commttteo that one Caeo alone from that circuit. Involving 170 land lota, valued at over 2160,000, the record of which could scarcely be carted In n wheelbarrow, was now before tho supreme court, and that Judge Pnrker had only a few hours In which to consider tho caee, whereas It would take him at least two weeks to read the record alone. Bald one attorney: ‘IVe Just pushed It up to him, to be knocked back to us, to be shoved on to the supreme rourt.” The striking feature of the discus ■Ion, however, was Judge flweat'e dec. ■oration that a rearrangement of all the circuits and more Judgee were sad ly needed In Georgia.

After thl* fashion th* young gentle man continued to prattle on—and meantime Jurgls was trembling with excitement. He might grab that wad of bills and be out of right In the dark ness before the other could collect his wfl*. Should he do It? What better had he to hope for, If he waited longer? But Jurgls had never committed a crime In his life, and now he hesitated half a second too long. “Freddie" got one bill loose abd then stuffed the rest back Into his trousers pockst. "Here, ole man,” he said, "you take It." H* held It out fluttering. They were In front of a saloon; and by the light of the window Jurgls saw that It was a hundred dollar bill! You take It," the other repeated. "Pay the cabbie and keep the change— I've got—Me—no head for business! Guv'ner says so htsself, in' the guv'ner knows—the guv'ner'* got a head for business, you bet!

Jurgls hesitated, and waa halt obey ing; but his companion broko out: "Whuxzat? Whuzamatter with you, hey?" And the cabbie subsided, and Jurgle climbed In. Then Freddie gave a num ber on the Lake Shore Drive, and the carriage started away. The youngster leansd back and snuggled up to Jurgls, murmuring contentedly; In half a min ute he was sound asleep. Jurgls sat shlviring, speculating as to whether he might not still be able to get hold of the roll of bills. He was afraid to try to go through hi* companion's pock ets, however; and, besides, the cabbie might be on the watch. He had the hundred safe, and he would have to do with that At the end of half on hour or so the cab stopped. They were out on the water front, and from the east a freez ing gale waa blowing off the Ice.bound lake. "Her* we are,” called the cab bie. and Jurgls awakened hla com- panton. Master Freddie sat up with a atari. "Hello!" he laid. "Where are we? Whusxls? Who ere you, hey? Oh, yea, sure nuff! Mos' forgot you—hlc— ole chappie. Home, ere weT Leaeeet Br-r-r—lt'e cold! Yes—*'ome long— we're home—be It ever eo—hlc—hum ble!" Before them there loomed an enorm ous granite pile, eet far back from the street, and occupying a whole block. By the light of ths driveway lamps Jurgls could see that It had towers and huge gables, like a medieval caatle. He thought that the young fellow must have made a mistake—It waa Incon ceivable to him that any person could have a home like a hotel or the city hall. But he followed In alienee, and then went up th* long flight of atepa arm In arm. “There’s a button here, ole sport,” ■aid Matter Freddie. "Hols my arm while 1 find her! Steady, now—oh, ye*, here she is. Saved!" A bell hrag and In a few seconds the door was opened. A man in blue liv ery stood holding It and gazing before him. silent, as a statue. They stood for a moment blinking In the light. Then Jurgls felt hls com panion pulling, and he stepped In, and the blue automaton doted the door. Jurgls' heart was beating wildly; It was a bold thing for him to do—Ipto what strange unearthly place he was ventur ing he had no Idea. Aladdin entering hls car* could not have been mo: i ex cited. Th* place where he stood waa dimly lighted; but he could ae« a vast hall, with pillars fading Into tbe end of darkness above, and a great staircase opening at the far end of it. The floor was tessellated marble, smooth as gloss, and from th* walls strange shapes loomed out, woven Into hugo portieres In rich, harmonious colors, or gleaming from paintings, wonderful and mysterious looking In the half-light, purple and red and golden. Ilk* sunset glimmers In a shadowy forest. ,. The man In livery had moved silent ly toward them; Master Freddie took off hls hat and handed It to him, nnd then, letting go of Jurgls* nnn, tried to get out of hls overcoat. Aftor two or three attempt! he accomplish.-,i this, with a lackey's help; and innuruim. a second man had approached, a tall and portly personage, solemn as an execu tioner. He bore straight down upon Jurgls, who shrank away nervously; he seized him by the arm without a word, and started toward the door with him. Then suddenly came Master Freddie's voice, "Hamilton! My fren' will r* main wls me." ■ The man paused and half released Jurgls. “Come 'long, ole chaplpe,” said the other, and Jurgls started toward him. "Master Freddie,” exclaimed the man. "See.that the cabbie—hlc—Is paid," wai th*other's response; and he linked hla arm In Jurgls'. Jurgls was about to say. “I have the money fpr him,” but he restrained himself. Ths stout man In uniform signaled to the other, who went out to the cab, while he fol lowed Jurgls and hls young master. They went down the great hall, and then turned. Before them were two huge door*. "Hamilton," said blaster Freddie. "Well, sir?” said the other. "Whuxsarastler wtxae dinin’ room doors7" "Nothing Is th* matter, air." "Then why dontcha openumT" Ths man rolled them back; another vista lost Itself In the darkness. 'Lights," commanded Master Freddie, and the butler preseed a button and a flood of brilliant Incandescence stream ed from above, half blinding Jurgls. Ha stared, and little by little he made out the great apartment, with a domed celling from which the light poured, and walla that were one enormous painting—nymphs and dryads dancing In a flower atrewn glade, Diana, with Willi III U liunri nurnii fliaur, assisting w mi her hounds and horses, dashing head long through a mountain streamlet; a group of maidens bathing In a forest pool, all life-six* and so real that Jurats thought that It waa soma work of en chantment, that he waa In a dream R lace. Then bis eye passed to th* ig table In th* center of the hall, a table Mack as ebony and gleaming with wrought ellver and gold. In the cen ter of It waa a hug* carven bowl, with the glistening gleam of ferns and th* red and purple of rare orchids, glowing from a light bidden somewhere In their midst. "This’s the dinin’ room,” observed Mrfster Fredlde. "How you like It, hey, ole sport?" He always Insisted on having an an swer to hls remarks, lennlng over Jur gls and emlllng Into hie face.

They went up the great staircase one step at a time; at th* top of It there gleamed at them out of the shadows th* figure of a nymph crouching by a fountain, a figure ravlshlngly beautiful, tha flesh warm and glowing with tbe hue* of life. Above waa a huge court, with domed roof, th* various apart ment* opening Into It. Th* butler had paused below but a few minutes to give orders, and then followed them! now he pressed a button, and th* hall biased with light. Ha opened a door before them, end then pressed another button, as they staggered Into the apartment. It was fitted up a* a study. In the center waa a mahogany table, covered with hooka and smokers' Implements: tbs walls were decorated with college trophies and colors, flags, posters, pho tographs and knlcktmaclu, tennis rac quets, esnoo paddles, golf clubs and polo stick*. An enormous moos* head, with horns six feet across, faced a buf falo bead ore tha opposlts wall, while bear and tiger skins covered the pol ished floor. There were lounging chairs and sofas, window seat* covered with soft cushions of fantastic designs; there was one corner fitted In Persian fashion, with a huge canopy and a Jewelled lamp beneath. Beyond a door opened upon a bedroom and beyond that was a swimming pool of the pur est marble, that had cost about forty thousand dollars.

The butler had closed the door, and he stood by It, watching Jurgls «*vory second. Now there came footsteps out side, and, as he opened the door a man In livery entered, carrying h folding table, and behind him two men with covered trays.
