District Attorney Albert F. Barker is in charge of the prosecution, and Mrs. Eaton’s chief counsel is Wil liam A. Morse, of Boston. While Mrs. Eaton has been confined in the Plymouth jail she has written a complete history of her life since her marriage ot the admiral in 1906.

Government to Decide “What Is Chocolate?” Dr. Biosser’s Catarrh Remedy W. J. Harris Has Been Acting ^4s' Secretary Of Dept, of Commerce WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—Director ris, director of the bureau of census, left this morning at 3 o’clock for Louis ville with Messrs. A. L.

HARRIS WANTS 0FTENER REPORTS ON COTTON SEED WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—Director Harris, of the bureau of the census, finds that there is a great demand for the publication at more frequent inter vals of statistics concerning the con sumption of cotton seed. It has been the practice of the bureau of census to compile statistics for this important part of the cotton crop only twice dur ing the ginning season. The first re- port for the crop of 1912 related to the quantity of cotton seed crushed prior to January . 1, 1913. The second report showed the quantity crushed prior to March 1, 1913, with an estimate of the quantity remaining to be crushed from the crop. The statistics of cotton seed are col lected oin connection with those for the production of cottpn as reported by the ginners. This is necessary because the quantity of linters is constantly in creasing and forms a much larger per centage of the total crop than hereto fore. Mr. Harris believes that an addition al report showing the quantity of seed crushed and linters obtained should re late to some date between October 31, and January 1. He is not certain as to the most desirable date, and is accord ingly corresponding with the farmers and cotton seed oil mills in order to es tablish it. It is hoped that all will agree upon a fixed date, so that the werk can be inaugurated during the present season. This additional report will be of great value .Jo the farmers, as well as to the oil mills aad the public generally. (By Associated Press.'

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—Over 500*ap- plications have been sent to the Geor gia senators and congressmen for the places of the six deputy Collectors who will have charge of the income tax in Georgia. It is thought here that this large number of applicants was caused part ly by the fact that the salary was pub lished as being about twice as large as it really will be, having been published as being $2,500, when really the $2,500 assignment to each was to cover trav eling expenses and subsistence as well as salary, the act of congress itself lim iting the salary to the same pay that other deputy collectors receive, which is $1,400. The congressmen say that the secre tary of the treasury has told them that no selections will be made until the first of January. DEALERS PLEAD TO GET BIRD PLUMAGE ADMITTED (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—Both frantic and tearful appeals reached the treas ury department today regarding the en forcement of the tariff inhibition re garding bird plumage. One man, whose dozen cases of grouse were held up at the New York customs house, tele graphed that if he took the plumage off this game, as required by the law, his customers would refuse to recognize the birds as grouse. The law, however, is explicit that grouse and partridges, hearing their plumage, cannot be brought into the country. Regarding aigrettes, worn on hats by women returning from abroad, treasury officials pointed out that if aigrettes could come in on women’s hats the way would be made clear for a wholesale importation of them in evasion of the law.

Then the one who sent the next best answer would be entitled to the third. This rule will apply generally. While the winning of a prize does not depend upon the time solu- ONDITIONS tion was registered, the puzzle is more or less elusive and the best thing to do is to begin counting at one©. Send In your solution and if you find later you have made a mistake send in a her. There is no limit to the number of different solutions that may be registered. All those entering the contest will, as a condition and consideration, be required to abide by the ruling of the Contest Manager. In the event of any question arising, the Puzzle Manager, if he deems It wise, may appoint a committee to assist him in deciding them, and those entering the contest do so with the understanding that such decision will be final. £ >* 2 S o m cJ p S3 CD TJ a cS a P P a Q> V © s c« T3 <5 73 p p o •s g * 3 S3 2 o P O 33 Ck co H sg 1 < £ P rl O -3 S3 > —4 ^ H H 4J ctf < a 3 © © CO fc o d a a a o a «s a © co 3 o 39- €©• <& rs C 4 I © .o u I § a S3 © CONTEST CLOSES SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1913 Address Solutions to Puzzle Manager, The Atlanta Journal, Atlanta, Ga. _
