DOG DAYS ALL STUFF
SAYS MR. MARBORY
"What about dog days, Mr. Mar
bury'.’" was the query with which i
Georgian reporter greeted the weather
man Saturday morning.
Oh, why don't you folks stop that
old superstition?" was the reply. "Why,
year or two ago I went over the
records for the i>a*t thirty years und
found, s» often as not, that we have
good weather for the next forty days
after July 28, even If It rained, or bad
weather If It were clear that day. I
don't believe there I* anything In It
but just Idle superstition, and no one
else would If It were not repeated so
often that after a while they get to
believing It. In spite of themselves.”
That's the way the scientific weather
man talks about It, so If you are going
to lie up-to-date and not old-fogy, you
will just have to think of July 28 the
same us you do of any other day, with
tlie wish added that tt won't be as hot
u* It usually Is at that season of the
year.' Mr. Marbury says there's noth
ing tn It snd that ends tlie discussion.

on th* jury that tried him. Judge Bpeer
denied.the writ of habeas corpus, but
signed an appeal from hi* decision to
the, United States court of appeals,
which does not convene until next Oc
tober.
This will delay the execution of tho
old man until that time anyhow and
Cooper Intends to fight the case right
on up to tha United States supreme
court again.
Mr. Cooper will take the cases of
-the Rawlins boys before the prison
commission next week and endeavor
to have their sentence* commuted to
life Imprisonment.
Since th* supreme court’s affirm*
tlon of Judge Mitchell’* denial of a new
trial to the Rawlins, nothing has been
heard from Attorney Jofin H. Cooper,
relative to a hearing before the prlsoh
commission.
Two petitions, both containing about
150 names, and several tetters hare
been on file for some time with the
commlsslatn. These petitions and let
ters ask for commutation of sentence
&V. life Imprisonment for Milton and
Jesse Rawlins. One or two letters
make pleas for tlie negro, A If Moore,
on the ground that be ii-jj the dupe
of the elder Rawlins.
But in none ot .them Is any voice
lifted for J. G. Rawlins. Whether or
not Attorney Cooper proposes to make
a fight for the old man does not ap
pear.
As the hangings are fixed for next
Friday Mr. Cooper will have to move
early next week for his clients If he
hopes to stay tha execution*.'
COURT OF APPEALS
.11 SENATE .
Monday at 11:30, Immediately after
the senate journal Is read, the court of
appeals bill will be taken up and made
the continuing order until disposed of.
It It Is found that not enough mem
bers are present to Insure Its passage
by the constitutional majority of thir
ty, debate will continue on It until
Tuesday. The amendment put on the
bill by the senate constitutional come
ralttee will be adopted and. It la un
derstood, wllj, he acceptable to the
house.
The amendment provides (hat the
three Judges of the court shall be elect
ed by the people In November, their
term* to run for two, four aod six
years. After election the Judges will
draw lots for the terms.
When the court of appeals bill Is
disposed of the child labor measure will
be taken up and given attention until
passed. The senate amendment does
not materially affect the measure as
IHUised by the house. That the bill will
pass tha senate now Is a foregone con
elusion.
Wednesday the McHenry Western
and Atlantic lease bill will be the spe
cial order.' Though Senator McHenry's’
proposition has met with some strong
opposition, he feels confident that the
upper house will pass It.
It Is possible that Senator Candler
will try to get up his substitute to the
Hall tax assessor bill during the-week.
There Is much opposition to Senator
Candler's substitute, and It Is doubtful
If It will pass.
These are the more Important meas
ures to be considered In the senate the
coming week. Unless the members
kick over the traces, as some Intimate
they will do, and hold up house busi
ness, a big lot of local measures will
ba put through.

CITY WINS IN ITS CASE
AGAINST SOU, EXPRESS
The Southern Express Company will
have to pay' the city of Atlanta 3350
occupation tax for IMS, so decided by a
decision of the supreme court Saturday

A fl. fa. was Issued against the com
pany In December. 1803. by the comp
troller to require the express people to
pay $2,81)8.85, taxes due Atlanta for the
year 1853.
The company claimed that they paid
all but 9280, which should have been
deducted under the act of August 17,
1903. But as this occupation tax was
due prior to the time the act became
or effect the court held that Its object
was not retroactive, and would not

ARCHITECT TAYLOR
COMES NEXT WEEK
"I Expect to See Sub-Treas
ury Established by. Next
Congress,” Says
Uncle Lon.
"According to the plans of the new
government building to be constructed
in Atlanta soon, accommodations will
be provided forsthe sub-treasury which
expect to see established here by
congress at Its next session,” said Con
gressman. Leonidas F. Livingston to a
Georgian reporter Saturday morning.
Congressman Livingston had juat re
calved a telegram from Supervising
Architect J. Knox Taylor, of the treas
ury department, stating that he would
be tn Atlanta on August 6, and will
over' with Mr. Livingston and
Postmaster Blodgett the detans of the
building which has been badly needed
for so long.
Plans Alrtady Drawn,
Congressman Livingston stated that
the supervising architect had already
drawn plans for a building for Atlanta,
but that It was probable It woukl be
necessary to make some changes In or
der to meet local conditions and needs.
The fact that Mr. Taylor, who ha*
charge ot all buildings constructed by
the government, Is making a personal
visit to Atlanta Instead of sending one
of his assistants, shows how Important
ths department considers the matter ot
having a suitable building erected.
Congressman Livingston has been
working for the establishment of
sub-treasury In Atlanta for a number
of years, and when it does come It will
be a monument to hla unflagging In
terest and zeal for the welfare of hla
constituents. The fact that the de
partment has gone ao far as to.lncor
porato In the plans of the new building
room and accommodations for Its e*
tabltshment shows that there la little
or no doubt of Its being placed here In
th* very near future. There Is no such
branch of the government at the pres
ent time In the South, except at New
Orleans, and no one has questioned
but that It was only a matter of time
until ona waa placed here, and with Its
central position' nnd other natural ad
vantages, Congressman Livingston la
certain that the plum will come hla
way.
Abscess of the Eye.
Congressman Livingston has been
suffering for some time from an ab
scess of hi* eye, and has been In At
lanta for about two weeks having It
treated by a' specialist. His friends
will be glad to know that he Is about
