Special to The Herald.
Atlanta, Ga., April 16.—“What’s hap
pened to me?” was the first remark
made by W. H. Sprayberry, an aged
citizen of DeKalb county, who was
thrown from his buggy In a collision
with a trolley car at the corner of
Oakland and Woodward avenues. He
was picked up unconscious. He was
not seriously Injured. He never knew
what hit him, and wore a puzzled ex

self lying pn the ground In a yacant
lot and surrounded by a gaping crowd
of curious persons, all of whom
thought the old man was dead.

THIS EVENING
Dr. Alfred Hallam Will Or
ganize Musical Depart
ment at 8 O’clock at the
Auditorium.
The chorus of the Eighteenth An
nual Assembly of the Georgia Chau
tauqua will be organized this evening
at the auditorium.
Dr. Alfred Hallam, musical director
of the New York Chautauqua, who
will be In charge of the musical de
partment of the approaching assembly,
arrived last night, and will meet mem
bers of the chorus this evening at the
hour announced.
During the day Dr. Hallam has been
busy making the acquaintance of as
many Albanians who are as musically
inclined as he has been able to see,
but has bad so many other matters to
look after that he will not be able to
meet the greater number of singers
until this evening.
It is sincerely hoped that the chorus
will be organized this evening with
the largest membership in the history
of the Chautauqua. Dr. Hallam Is one
of the foremost men of his profession
In the country, and the opportunity
afforded members of the chorus for
valuable Instruction- should not be neg
lected.
But on the ground of public spirit
and community pride, the management
of the Chautauqua appeals to all Al
banians who can slngjto join the cho
rus at once. A cordial Invitation Is
also extended visitors to Identify
themselves with the organization. It
is desired to break all records In the
number of voices heard In chorus, and
there Is reason to believe that this
will be done.
The chorus will meet nightly during
the week, and will he heard by the
public for the first time on next Sun
day morning.
If you sing, join the chorus.
There is no possible danger of too
many male or female voices being of
fered, and there will be' seats in the
chorus terrace for all singers.
Go out this evening and "begin at
the beginning." If Impossible to join
tonight, be on hand at 8 o’clock to
morrow evening. All are needed, and
all should respond.
