THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. SAYS K GOT OFFER $3,000 TO VOTE KNOT HEARST Bennett Charges Pat McCar ren Vouched For the Payment. Buffalo, N. Y„ Sept. 25.—State Com mitteeman. James O. Bennett, of su rer Creek, Chautauqua oounty, sate he wai offered $1,000 yesterday to desert Hearst and to assist the Ryan-Bel- mont-Sheohan ring of corporation Democrats Jn organising the Demo cratic state convention. He says he was told to meet Joseph Fanning at Main and Eagle streets and discuss the subject further. Fanning came from Indiana two years ago. He was a partner there of Thomas Taggart, chairman of the Democratic national committee. Fan nlng was In the national headquarters In New Tork during the Parker cam palgn and August Belmont took a fan cy to him. Fanning Is now In Bel mont's office. Bennett went to William J. Conners' headquarters and reported the matter. Mr. Conners advised Bennett to see how fsr the element opposed te Mr. Hearst would go. Bennett left the Iroquois hotel, met Fanning and they entered Into earnest conversation. They talked fur five minutes and parted. Bennett, on reaching the hotel, went to the third floor, as per arrangement. Fannin* went to the room occupied by William F. Sheehan on the first floor. Pat McCarren was standing In the long corridor, and as soon as Bennett walk' ed out of the'elevator McCarren ad. vanned and the two men met. They talked for about ten minutes. When the talk was over Bennett said McCgrren’s Anal words were: SHOT BREAKS GLASS IN UNCLE REMUS’HOME "You deliver the goods; we’ll do our part. How can we know that you will vote with us?" "That plan works both ways,” Ben nett declared he answered. "How am I to know that you will make good of ter I have pjayed the game for you?" “You can'depend on me,” said Me. Carren. “My word Is good." Bennett refused to agree to that pro- position and there the matter ended. DEAD AT JELLICO 11 The Town Appeals for Help, Explosion Charged to Railroads.

CORPORAL WHITTEMORE THROWN FROM HI8 HOKSE. t'orporal Joe Whlttemore, of the gat- ling gun squad on duty at the scene of the Brownsville rioting Monday night, was thrown from his horse Tuesday morning about 9 o’clock and his foot severely hurt. Corporal Whlttemore had been relieved from duty and had started back to the city when the acci dent occurred. He came to town and his Injured foot was dressed. Forty cltlxens, armed with Winches ters, patrolled West End Monday night to preserve order. A meeting'of West End residents was held Monday evening at 7 o'clock at the corner of Lee and Gordon streets. One hundred and fifty of the leading cltl xens were present. Sheriff Nelms was chairman of the meeting, and Rev. M. L. Troutman, pastor of Park Street Methodist church, secretary. One hundred and fifty cltlxens were sworn In as officers of the law, and forty men were detailed for duty Mon day night. John Jentzen, chief of the sanitary department, was made chief of the night watch. Absolute order and quiet prevailed until 5 o'clock Tuesday morning, when a disreputable looking negro slouched down Gordon street. The patrol called upon him to halt, but Instead of doing so the negro began running. Instantly the patrol began firing. One shot entered the home of Joel Chandler Harris, but did no damage other than smashing a window glass, and arousing the sleeping household. None of the shots struck the negro and he quickly disappeared. The fusillade of shots, however, brought slumbering male West Enders to the streets, clad In various and often picturesque dishabille. Pajamas of %any cuts and color*, nightshirts that failed to hide bare shanks and shivering limbs, pattered down the street In the early dawn. And the weapons In evidence were of all de. scriptlons—Winchesters, revolvers, new and ancient, old shotguns, clubs and other things—were clasped In the hands of tha-alarmed cltlxens. Finding that the trouble was not se rious, the slightly clad male citizens returned to warm beds for another snooze before the business day began. The citizen patrol will be maintained nightly until all possibility of trouble has ended.

PARIS IS TERRORIZED BY GAM FOOTPADS Police Are Afraid of or Powerless to Cope with Criminals. UBLIC SCHOOLS NOTTOBE CLOSED Policemen, However, Warn Many Not to Go to Boulevard. Atlanta's night school was closed Monday night, and will not resume un til the excitement In the city has com pletely subsided. Superintendent W. F. Slaton deemed It Inadvisable to at tempt to have the pupils In the night school to come out on the streets as long as the slightest danger existed. Attendance was small at Boulevard public school Monday morning. This school Is located at the corner of Boule vard nnd Irwin streets near the negro settlements and not far from a large colored school. Parents were a little afraid to have their children go Into that vicinity at this time. Policemen stationed near the school warned many children not to attempt to go Tuesday morning. • The recent events have affected, more or less, the attendance at practically NO REAL TROUBLE OUT ATPITTSBURG Negro Undertaker’s Wagon Was Fired Upon by Crowd. At 3:30 o'clock Sergeant Lamar Poole, accompanied by Officers Loyd, Pate and Dunton, hurried to Pittsburg, a call having been sent 4n from Ran dall's coal yard, to the effect that the negroes had mobilised and were march ing on the whites. The report went on to say that several negroes were barri caded In a house at 381 McDaniel street and were firing at every white person that passed. When the officers reached the place everything was as quiet as a May day. except for a gang of about 20 white youths and young men standing In a group. Some of them had Win chester rifles. Others had pistols, while some had shotguns. The officers were directed to the alleged fort. They searched the house and the one next or lean, UIW ttliciiuuiuo *»«. trt i t hllt nn»Hln«r WO.

Paris, 8ept. 25.—A reign of terror once more holds sway over the French capital, but this time the terrorists are foot-pads and assassins, not revolu tionaries. Scarcely a day passes that some shocking crime does not take place In the very center of the city, among the crowded streets In full day light. The police are either powerless against these creatures or afraid of them. The other afternoon a couple of Apaches were sauntering down the boulevard when they saw a workman seated at a cafe table drinking cold "Just look at that cheek,”, sold one of the Apaches, "him sitting there having Iced drinks while we haven’t a cent to buy a drop of absinthe," and thereupon'he whipspd out a revolver and fihot the workman dead. It eufflees for the Apache to take a dislike to a man's face or his clothes for them to shoot or stab him on the spot. For several years no Parisian has dared stir out after nightfall un armed, but now peaceful dtlsens are obliged to carry weapons for self pro tection by day as well. The demoralisation of tlje French cha'uffeur Is due to the enormous wages paid by the American employer abroad. Is the theory advanced by M. Paul Meysn, who writes on this sub' ject In the France Automobile. He declares that Americans abroad high wages as do Europeans, and as an example of the extremes to which American automoblllsts will go In this direction cites the examples of the late Clarence Dlnsmore, who paid his chauffeur, Braun, 12,000 francs year. French automoblllsts are apt to be very bitter against American owners of motor cars In Europe. They say that not only do they spoil their chauffeum by allowing them enormous wages and almost unlimited license upon the road, but they are the most selfish and In considerate of the safety of the general public, and other motorists upon the road than any other people In the world. "No wonder we take to the airs," said a celebrated aeronaut, who used to be an expert motorist. ‘Lately the Americans have driven us off the earth with their devil-may-care driving." ilKING OF ENGLAND SETS A TIME FOR DINNERS He Disapproves of Tenden-, cy to Make Dining Hour Later and Later. THE WAY OUT. Change of Food Brought 8uccess end Happiness. An ambitious but delicate girl, after falling to go through school on account of nervousness and hysteria, foqnd In Grape Nuts the only thing that seemed to build her up and furnish her the peace of health. •From Infancy," she says, "I have not been strong. Being ambitious to learn at any cost I finally got to the high school, but soon had to abandon my studies on account of nervous pros tration and hysteria. My food did not agree with me, I grew thin and despondent. I could not enjoy the simplest social affair for I suffered constantly from nervousness In spite of all sorts of medicines. This wretched condition continued until I was 25, when I became Interest ed In the letters of those who had cases like mine and who were being cured by eating Grape-Nuts. “I had little faith but procured a I six and after the first dish I experienced a peculiar satisfied feeling that I had never gained from any ordinary food. I slept and rested better that night and In a few days began to grow stronger. "I had a new feeling of peace and restfulness. In a few weeks, to my great Joy, the headaches and nervous ness left me and life became bright and hopeful. I resumed my studies and later taught ten months with ease—of course using Grape-Nuts every day. It Is now four years since I began to use Grape-Nuts, I am the mistress of a happy home and the old weakness has never returned.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich. "There's a reasoq."

On account of the troublous times, there was a small audience present, but a more appreciative lot of theater goers could not have been found. While the supporting company was not as strong as It might have been, still with Little Chip and Mary Marble, tjiere was not a dull moment from the rise to the fall of- the curtain. “The Toast of the Town." It Is not saying too much that Miss Jane Kennark never appeared to better advantage than os Betty SJngleton; never satisfied her followers as 00m pletely. The role Is one which colls on the actress to portray very various emotions, from the comic to the tragic note, bliss Kennark appears In many fine scenes In "The Toast of the Town," some delightfully comic, some sweetly pathetic, while others are Intensely dramatic. In other words, Betty Is a great role and Miss Kennark has risen with great success to the opportunities presented. There Is a striking con trast between the first and last acts of the play. In the first, Betty Is discov ered In (he height of her success; su preme, happy In her love, and bub bling over with animation. Then Betty meets with the deepest of disappoint ments, an unrequited love, and In the last act we have her In as sweetly pathetic a scene as has been known to the Stage In years. This act, while one of the best In the play. Is the quietest, and yet It makes the deepest Impres sion of any of the four. We have had three acts of bustling comedy and stir ring drama, and then follows the al luringly pathetic. It Is rather curious that this last act, which leaves no dry eyes, should be considered one of the very best In the play. In this act Miss By RICHARD ABERCORN. (Copyright, 1906, by Hearst News S<r- , vice.) ! London, Sept. 25.—A momentous 1 change has taken place In habits of' London society. Initiated by the king. His majesty disapproved of the ten dency to make the dinner hours later and later, and has decreed that the fashionable dinner hour shall be 6:30 to 7:30 o'clock. Before this change was Instituted society dined from 8 to 9 o'clock. The dinner hour, which Is a return to ear lier manners. Is welcomed by every body. It will benefit the theaters, which lost many patrons through the late din ner hour, and It will also send more people to the restaurants for supper., People who dined at 8 o'clock were not always inclined for supper afterwards, and could not reach the theater before the middle of the performance. The distress In London through lack of employment will be greatly miti gated during the coming winter by a system which has just been Inaugu rated. A "labor exchange” has been opened in each of the twenty-seven metropolitan boroughs for the purpose of organizing the supply of labor to I meet the demand, nnd finding work! for the thousands of Idle workmen. The system of a provision of the un employed act of 1906, under which a small tax, levied for the purpose, pro duced nearly $150,000, of which about $64,000 has been spent In establishing these labor exchanges. Each exchange Is connected by tele-, phone with a central exchange, where-, by a demand for labor In any district may be communicated to all the other! exchanges, and men supplied from dls-l tricts where the demand Is small. A new club for "gentlemen’s gentle men" Is to be opened In Mayfair by! I sidy Hope, who for some years has been doing good work among the do-1 „ . 1 mestles of society.
