Dr. David T. Day, chief of the

is the official designated by the gov
ernment to investigate the character
of the Georgia stone. lie is well
known in south having been the rep
resentative of tln "goveminent in the
mineral and forestry budding at the
Cotton States and International expo
sition. Dr. Day was one of| the most
popular officials connected with the
exposition and his assistance not only
in his own department, but in various
other ways was of graeat value to the
exposition It was bis work brought
the Gridiron Club here, and through
hisjinfluences several other prominent
organization came.
Some t-ime ago lie was selected by
the government as.the man to investi
gate and report on the characiei of
of the Georgia granite as building
purposes and as to durability. This
war. done immediately after the con
tract made bv the Venables for erect
ing large w/sS at Tybee and St. Au

Dr. Day was sent to Atlanta and
remained here two or three days.
Later on he came again and made a
thorough inspection of Stone moun

examination of the quarries at Lith -

Arthur Cole a Free man.
Arthur E. Cole, the young man
who has been locked in Falton county
jail for several clays suspected of hav
ing murdered an infant, was released
yesterday morning ou an order from
Judge Bio. dworth, who heard the
testimony, and decided there was
nothing to warrant Cole being he'd.
The facts brought out were sub
stant.inti.illy the same as before the
coroner’s jury The evidence was
purely circumstantial and not strong.
Since liis arrest, Cole lias obstinately
refused to t.dk, except that he always
asserted his ivinoicnce.
It will be remembered that one
night several weeks ago he went into
Papp iL bar with a box containing
the body of a dead infant. He left
bis burden in tlie bar, and was later
arrested surpeotod of being a mmler
er. He was locked in the station
house and take before the coroner’s
iury, but obstinately refused to testify
He was then committed .to jail,
where he has been ever since. He
claimed he was entirely innocent ot
having killed the child, and that he
found the box containing the body on
the Georgia railroad tracks. Now
that he ha? been given Ins liberty it is
probable he will never be prosecuted
