To Vote Out Oiipenearlea. The bill by Mr. Buchanan, of Early, to allow those dry counties In which dispensaries have been created by spe cial acts of the general assembly the right to vole out such dispensaries, was passed by the vole of 94 to 0. This does not permit a dispensary to be voted Into a dry county. Mr. Covington, of Colquitt, explained its provlslbns. The supreme court held that dispensaries could be opened In dry counties by legislative enactment, ami could only be abolished In the same manner. They wished to give these counties the right to vote out these dispensaries, It desired, and to revent any subsequsnt election for lour years. Mr. Hush, of Miller, offered no objec tlon, but said he wanted to fee the time when whisky wes driven entirely out of the state. As the vote showed; no opposition was given to the tjjHkn- ure. ' The last few minutes were utilised In the second reudlng of (dlls. Many Bills Tabled.

Peter, bolldlo-. nnd new Termlsal •tattoo. m,i,; 4 *‘ w '- Tho clgarotta question stirred up con slderabla commotion among tho mem bers, and after about an hour was consumed In fervid oratory upon the part of several members, It all “went up In smoke," and the bill was tabled, upon the motion of Mr. Fleder, of Bibb. The bill wni by Mr. l’ortor, of Floyd, and Mr. Corn, of Towns. Mr. Porter explained that the present law now forbids anyone from selling or furnishing to any minor any ciga rette or clg«rette papers or tobacco, but bo had observed that It did not prevent young boys from oniuklng ci garette* on the etreete. This bill sought to procure Information ns to the source from which they were furnished. It makes It a misdemeanor for any minor to be caught smoking a cigarette or to be caught with any In his possession or any cigarette papers or tobacco, but the minor can relieve himself by fur nishing the Information aa to who gave or mild hint the article* That was the only way In which violations of the law could be prosecuted. Mr. Anderson objected to the provi sion to convict, as the boy might fur nish the Informtalon aa to where he got the articles, but It would not be sur- fletent to convict, and yet under the bill It would not relieve the boy. Mr. i’orter offered an amendment to over come this objection. Mr. Williams elicited applause when he said he would prosecute the low est, measliest, dirtiest negro In the state who would furnish these things to his boy. He was tired of these "hounds of heil, the cigarette Bend, damning our boya.” Mr. Felder was against the measure, because It prevented boys from selling these things to adults, whlrh waa quite frequently done now. Even If a boy should pick up tobacco—“a swipe”—on the street the boy would be liable. Would Make Criminals of Boy*. Mr. Wright, of Richmond, opposed auch stringent legislation. He recalled how he had taken tobacco from his father’s pouch and gone behind the barn or In the woods to smoke. Boys are the same yet, and we will but make falsifiers out of them, as they will not tell where they get them. They will not "pearh" on those furnishing them, he an Id, and this statement was ap plauded. • • Judge I.ongley, of Troup, likewise thought the effect of the measure would simply be to muke criminals out of our boys. Mr. Mann, of Catoosa, also coincided with this view. Mr. I^lgh, of Coweta, favored the bill. Cigarette smoking, he said, en dangered property, such as barns and similar houses where there was stored Inllummnble material. on motion of Mr. Felder toe bill,was then tabled. Wanted Pension Laws Changed. Mr. Hall, of Bibb, took Issue with Mr. Whitley, of Douglas, upon the bill of the letter gentleman to flx a property qual ification In the payment of .pensions to Confederate soldiers. Mr. Whitley's measure provided for payment of pay- menta to those entitled to them only when they owned less than ftl.200 of property. Mr. Hall thought It waa sought to enact Into law by a mere bill what It would require an amendment to the constitution tn accomplish—and to sub stantiate this position read from tha constitution for what purposes taxes might be levied. "Poverty," and what was meant by the word, was the keynote around which the battle of words raged. Air. Whitley contended that the poverty contemplated In the constitution was, In a sense, equivalent to that contained In his measure. The purpose of the bill was to pre vent the payment of pensions to those who were worth 91.21)6 or more In prop erty, thus giving more money to the really impoverished soldiers of the 7EN-YEAR-OLD BOY SA YS FATHER MADE HIM GET BE A SI LY INTOXIC A TED Taken to the Orady hospital Thurs. day night In a beastly state of lntoxl cation nnd In a serious condition, Ab bert Taylor, 10 years of age, a bright little fellow with an abundance of pretty curly brown hair, Friday morn ing declared to the hospital physicians that his father made him drunk, threatening him with the lash If he did not drink. As a result of the little boy’s story, hie father, Quincy Taylor, of It Corput street, an employee of Schmidt's bak ery. Is being sought by police and de tectives. When the child was first taken to the hospital Friday night about 10; It o’olock. It was thought he had been mysteriously drugged. At that fftne the father told Bicycle Policemen Arro- wood and Wylie a remarkable story. He said he was going to hla home and found hts boy lying unconacloua In the yard of the Tabernacle Infirmary In -urkla street. He picked up the child he seld, slung hlm~arro*s hts .back, and took him home. Shortly afterwards, the lad waa sent to the hospital In an ambulance. Father Told Straight Tale. The father le said to hava been In a drunken condition at the time, but told auch a straightforward story, the police never suspected he had made the boy drunk. The boy waa In a deep stupor and had the appearance of being under the Influence of some powerful drug. On his arrival at the hospital, and ne soon as the physicians had made an examination, however, ft was discover ed he was In a terrible elate of Intoxi cation. It was seen he waa in a serious condition and steps were promptly taken in an efr..rt t>, save him. The unconscious little fellow waa taken Into the operating room, where the doctors had to work with him fuily an hour and a hnlf before he revived. Ho powerful was tl.e coma that It waa found nere.-Hary to apply a strong elec trie current to tht little ’fellow ‘ arouse him. He was later nlaced In the mala ward, and, after ebreful attention, re covered sufficiently by Friday morn Ing tA leave the hospital. Homs Is Deserted. Where the boy went Is not known. Inquiry at his home developed the (act that no one was there. Neither the child nor his parents could found and no one In the neighborhood could give any Information concerning them. On learning of the affair. Police Chief Jpnnlnnr Instructed the detective department to make an Investigation, and Detectives .Simpson nnd Campbell were detnlled. They visited the hos, Mini, but found the little patient gone They talked with the doctors, however, and obtained from them the story of the boy. Dr. .Mangrt. the house surgeon, and Drs. Ilalrd, Cline nnd Yarbrough had all talked with the boy, and to them he related the eame story. "My father took me up town with him last night," said tip little fellow, “and made me drunk. I don't know whRt all he gave me. He was drink ing and told me If I did not drink w hat he told me to, he would whip me. waa afraid not to do as he said -and I Just had to keep on drinking until lost my senses."

None of these owners knew hla auto bad been taken out for the little auto mobile party. The crowd of negrws Is said to have had a plentiful supply at liquor on hand and were having a general good time when the police Interrupted. Several of the negroes are said to have been Intoylcatd. One Machine Wrecked, The police officers were furnished with two machines and a driver for each, starting on the chase about midnight. The first auto found waa the wrecked machine at the Brookwood bridge.' The negroes who were In machine made tnelr escape. .» Another machine was sighted Peachtree road, proceeding in the di rection of the city, and the police start ed after It. On seeing the police, the negroes opened up the auto and began a run for liberty. The police machine Increased Its speed and there waa an auto race the like of which has never been seen In Peachtree. One of the men estimated that the machines made a record of nt least 80 miles an hour. The chase led to Fourteenth street, down to Piedmont perk, nnd thence along Piedmont avenue to Tenth street, where the fugitives were run to earth and token Into custody. The third machine was sighted In Peachtree street, at Baker, and another chase ensued.
