Drive Outposts Into City and Prepare to At tack Place—Government Rushes Troops From Havana. By MANUEL CALVO. Ily Prlrnto Leased Wire. Havana, Aug. 22.—The rebel forces are reported to have scored their first victory shortly before daylight tills morning, when a force under Pino Guerra attacked the rurales’ outposts nt Plnar del Rio and drove them back toward the city. The Insurgents did not follow up their advantage, as they are reported to he awaiting reinforcements, concentrated attack on tho small force of loyal troops nt Plnar del Rio Is ex pected nt any hour. Aid Is being rushed the government forces from Havana. Special Cable—Copyright. Havana, Aug. 22.—With General Jose Miguel Gomes, believed to be the head of the revolutionary movement, under arrest and General Quenten Banderas defeated at Hoye Colorado after a hard fight and reported to be surrounded, the government takes a rosier view of the situation, and Is confident of Its ability to stamp nut the revolution. In the meantime, however, the revolt la spreading, and fighting la reported In widely separated districts. The town of Catalina, near Quines. 40 ...lies from Havana, has been captured by the rebels and alarm la felt In, the capital. Rural Guards Deserting. An attack was made In Qulneas by a smalt force of revolutionists, but they were repulsed, losing two prisoners and a number of wounded. In some sections the rural guards are deserting and going over to the rebels. The hardest fighting occurred at Hoye Colorado, where Banderas made a desperate attempt to capture the place, only to meet with as desperate resistance by the small force of rurales stationed there, reinforced by the In habitants of the town. Bnnderaa’ force was repulsed with considerable loss, and the report now Is that he is In a trap, from which he can not escape. It Is the best opinion that should Banderas be captured the revolution will collapse. With him and Juan Gbalberto Gomes In the hands of the J iovernment, there will be no recognized eaders of the negroes In the field. 6,000 Man Arreatad. Up to the present more ,than 6,000 men have been arrested for complicity In the plot to overthrow the govern ment, Including most of the leaders of the discontented element. Deprived of their leader. It Is not believed the rebels can long remain In the field. The revolt under Pino Guerra Is the most threatening movement against the government at present. The rep resentatives of his strength place the number of men at his command as high ns 2,000. He marched across the province of Plnar del Rio and camped In-front of the city. It Is his avowed le to capture the city and make center of the revolution. Active measures are being taken to foil the attempt. Rebels Have Dynamite. Troqps are being sent as rapidly as possible to reinforce Colonel Avalos, In command at Plnar del Rio. Rush orders have been sent to the United 8tates for horses and munitions of war for the new troops. Troop trains have arrived here from the east and have transferred 100 men and horses to the Western railroad, and these were rushed to the city of Plnnr del Rio. Eleven cats were drop, ped at various points In Santa Clara Matanzas and Havana provinces. The Insurgents are well armed, hav ing much dynamite. Ex-Governor Louis Perez, of Plnur del Rio province, Is with tho Insurgents. A Catholic priest, San Juan Martlnes, Is out with the force, having great Influence among Guerras’ followers, other * Insurgents surrounding Plnar del.Rio are gradu ally coming closer, expecting a Junc tion today from Guanajay. Colonel Avalos already has had smart brush with Guerras’ men which several men w*re killed and wounded on either side. The report fighting In Matanzas province Is given credit.

Sullivan out of the convention, the Democratic state convention yesterday Indorsed William Jennings Bryan for the Demo cratlc nomination for the presidency of the United States and laid on the table Mr. Bryan's request for the ousting of Sullivan. •In a letter to Judge Owen Thompson, of Jacksonville, Sir. Bryan had stated he did not care for the convention's Indorsement If Sullivan was to remain as committeeman. There was a spirit ed debate over the question of follow ing Mr. Bryan's request to fire Sulli van. Judge Thompson, white with passion. i trouble would result. Personalities were Indulged In to a great extent. Mr. Sullivan, In a speech, defended himself, saying Mr. Bryan had been poisoned against him, and that the real demand for his resignation came from his (Sullivan's) .personal enemies. By a vote of 1,028 to 670 ttf conven tlon tabled the request to oust Sulll van. During the voting a delegate from Warren county declared that thi vote from his county had been dellbcr. ately garbled.

HOKE SMITH MAN PARADES STREET ASTRIDE HUGE OX Astride a huge brlndle ox, with black rag dolls dangling from saddle bows and tied to the caudal appendage of the meek-eypd bovine, J. C. Cox, a Hoke Smith supporter, paraded the principal thoroughfares of the city Wednesday morning. As the saddled ox swung slow-galted through Whitehall, East Hunter to South Pryor, about 9 oclock, a yelling bunch of small boys, Caucasian and African, streamed to the rearward, giv ing voice to various advice and Irrele vant remarks. Cox didn't mind. With his spread ing sugar-loaf straw hat, farmer's garb and spurred boots, he urged the patient steed along the sun-baked streets. Now and then he pointed to the da rag doll fastened to the steer's ta. shouted to the crowds lining his t'rl. umphal way: "Put the 'hope of the state' where belongs. Vote for Hoke Smith." "Ferglt It, Reuben. Dat steer’s like yer, man for gov'ner.

Dey's mo' fool doln's 'bout dea yeah white fo’ks 'lections dan' evah seed," said a very black and very fat mammy as she gazed'pop-eyed Cox and his steed.

The lingerie of an ardent campaigner preserved, anti peace broodeth where was once gloom and strife. Hooper Alexander's suitcase came hack Wednesday morning without garment missing. When that "wiry south Georgia steed, borrowed from a friend down In Sparks last Saturday by the eloquent DeKalh county man, while he was away spell binding for Hoke Smith, tore loose front his anchorage and lied with buggy, lin gerie et ill., shadowy rumors of an Estlll plot started. Some overzealous partisan started the whisper that Estlll ndherents had deliberately swiped Mr. Alexander a campaigning lingerie for the sole pur pose of embarrassing him.

GHARTIER GARRIES THE STATE BY OVERWHELMING MAJORITY As a Candidate for the Favor and Patronage of the Peo- pie and the Business Public, the New and Won- 4 derful System of Shorthand, Taught at Bag well’s Business College, is an Easy Win ner Over 'All Competitors. Endorsed by Leading Court Reporters of Georgia, l.FFMT', COt'lIT HOUSE. Augusta, Ga, March 27, 1915 llaea repeat frau, Wto more ^dtur^rl'tMrtflR. .6 5 rules In the system. It should be learned In one-fourth the time. 11 ' ’ We take pleasure In recommending Chanter Shorthand to the careful eon.l.i,, a tlon of all prutpeetlre students. Very reap,rtf nlly, 1 ““"'"t- (Signed) BARROW St TARVER. Expert Stenograph.- Young men and women from every section of the state and the South are headed for Bagwell's Business College and School of Shorthand to avail them selves of the splendid opportunities, never before offered to young people of this section, to prepare for remunera tive positions In a few weeks or months and at a comparatively trifling cost. Is It True? The proof Is conclusive that Chartler shorthand Is superior In every respect to any of the old systems, and that It can be learned In ond-half to one- third the time. Every Intelligent and unbiased person who has honestly In vestigated Its merits has been con vinced. If you belong to that class and are willing to make an honest In vestigation, we have no doubt of the result. When you know the facts, and have been Informed as to the marvelous re sults obtained In Bagwell's Business, _ — College, you would no more purchaSf ■shorthand. a scholarship for a course In Graham, Rspsnting of Their Mistakes. Gregg, Munson or any of the Pltmanlc ” , J ‘ '* *' ‘ systems than you would ride op an ox cart when you could take an electric car for less money. Does it Stand to Rsason that over one hundred of the biggest, beat, oldest and moat conservative bus iness colleges of America, Including the great Eastman College at Poughkeep sie, N. Y„ would adopt this system, and after thoroughly testing It, would make the same claims that we make for It, If these claims were not true? Mr. Gaines, president of Eastman College, perhaps the .largest business college In the United States, says: “It It so slmpje that a child can learn ; so comprehensive that every word in the English language can be writ ten; and its spttd powsr Is as great as that of any othsr system." E. R. Seldllts, president Rubicon Shorthand College, at St. Louis, Mo, the leading shorthand school of the West, says: "During September, 1806. we placed twenty-five Chartler shorthand stu dents In positions paying from 360 tn 876 per month. The greatest number of days required to master the system s sixty-five and the best record was thirty-two days. The young lady ho mastered it In thirty-two days as Immediately placed In a 866 posl- ..on. In one of the leading dry goods houses of St. Louis, and she still holds the position.” Additional Proof. A number of pupils who entered Bag- ell's Business College on June 4 and studied only six to eight weeks are now holding positions paying from |40 to 366 per month ana giving perfect satisfaction. Nothing like this has ever before been accomplished In the city of Atlanta. The same results could not be obtained with any other recog. nlzed system of shorthand In less than five to eight months. What’s the Use spend from six to ten months in studying any of the old Pltmanlc sys tems If you can learn Chartler Short hand in half the time at half the ex- nse, and at the same time make a letter stenographer? | Do you know of any sensible reason why you should do it? According to past records ninety out of one hundred who take in, the old systems of shorthand will have to remain In college six to twelve months or return home to suffer the chagrin of failure and disappointment. Why Take Any Risks? There are no failures In Chartler Shorthand for those of average Intel ligence who are willing to work. We guarantee results, because wo know that Chartler Shorthand Is all that we claim for It. We can save you from three to six months' time and from 8200 to $300. Thousands of boys and girls from every section of the South will enter business colleges during the r nnths of September and October. Any one who Intends to take a business course will do himself a great Injustice not to Investigate this wonderful system of Many students of other business col leges In the city have called to Inves tigate Chartler Shorthand In behalf of friends who are thinking of taking a eoursf. After seeing Its wonderful sim plicity and being convinced that both Us speed and reading power are greater than that of any of the old systems and seeing students who had been study ing only four to six weeks write or dinary unfamiliar matter at the rate of fifty to one hundred words per min ute and read their notes back without the slightest hesitation, have expressed themselves as being very sorry that they did not Investigate before paying their money for a course elsewhere. Do not watt- until It Is too late. Do not be governed entirely by statements of competitors. They do not have the right to teach It nnd cannot afford to recognise Its merits. An Unaccepted Challenge. Bagwell's Business College has pro posed a number of times and still tiro- poses ta contest a six weeks' student of tho Chartler system against three' months pupils of the Graham. The matter dictated to consist of ordinary unfamiliar matter which none of the contestants have ever seen before. It has offered Its competltqrs $loit In cash to accept the proposition. Why do they not accept? Evidently because they are afraid of the result. Goodyear-Marshall Bookkeeping, taught at Bagwell's Business College, la as far superior to most other system! as Chartler Shorthand Is to the old system of shorthand. The location "I the college Is more attractive than that of any other college In the city. All students are given Individual attention. The object Is to get results. Dormitory for Boys furnishes a wholesome discipline and board at actual cost. Special accom modations provided for young ladles. Positions are secured for all gradu ates Immediately. No school In the South has better facilities for secur ing positions. For full particulars address Bagwell's Business College, 1(8 Peachtree street, Atlanta, On.
