Sultan of Turkey Violently Insane;
Murdered Two Wives; Now in Irons
Salonleft, Feb. 3.—Abdul Hamid,
former sultan of Turkey, has gone
violently Insane, has killed two of his
wives and is today confined In Irons.
The murder of the two women,
who were among those who accom
panied Abdul Hamid from Constanti
nople when he was exiled by the
Young Turks, was particularly brutal.
He choken one of them to death with
his own hands and dashed the other
so violently against the wall that she
died a few ours later, according to
one of tbe men who have been guard
ing the deposed ruler at the villa
where he Is spending his lsst days.
The ex-sultan was aubdued only
after a fierce struggle in which he
hlmselt was severely injured.
Abdul Hamid is confined In a dun
geon beneath the villa AUattni, which
while set apart for him as a resi
dence. is In reality his prison. He
was sent there on April 27, 1909,
when the Turkish revolution brought
about by the Young Turk party was
Anally completed and Sultan Mehmid
V. ascended the throne.
•Abdul Hamid had reigned for 30
years up to that time, had deluged
his empire in blood and kept 200,.
000 spies to betray their fellow cltl
zens. He was noted for baring trick,
ed the diplomats of all Europe, and
from time to time shocked the world
by his sensuality and crimes.
When Abdul was sent to the villa
Lore his suite which was allowed to
accompany him was composed of
three sultanas, or full wives; four
cadines, or inferior wives, five halfas,
or lady housekeepers, privileged to
go out of the harem; two princes, his
daughter, and nine servants. This
really gave him the allowance of
twelve wives.
Tbe villa in which the ex-sultan is
housed Is g lone spot overlooking the
sea and can be approached only by
one road, which leads to the resi
dence of the governor of Salonica.
It is said that a man supposed to
be the sultan is seen working daily
a* a carpenter. This man is said to
be a guard disguised as the royal pris
oner, to conceal the fact that tbe ex-
sultan Is not allowed to leave bis
cell.

Mr. A. B. Herndon was In the city
yesterday on business.
That paragroph might be put in a

tew know Mr. Herndon it would oc
casion no special Interest. Mr. Hern
don comes to Athens however, on a
mission of business which will re
suit In a revolution of building meth
ods and construction work in this
section of the state.
He comes to Install one of the new
Shaw kllnft at the Georgia Brick com
panys* plant near this city. The new
process about which tbe Banner has
had something to say before, practi
cally revolutionized the making of
building brick. It turns out finished
brick in a day when the old method
required fifteen or twenty days. In
saving of time and expense it enables
a brick manufacturing company
make brick, burn them, load them and
ship them before the old process
could hardly have the clay mixed.
Athens is the first city In the state
to contract for the new kiln—the on- pfauklill COUOtV iS PlAO*
ly other city being Atlanta, where J
Capt. J. W. English has also made
a contract for the Installation of
big plant.

frsyth County Veteran Orders Suit
Of Grey in Which To Be Buried
/ Cummins, Ga., Feb. 3.—At advanc
ed age, having almost reached the
summit of life, Hon. A. J. Julian, one
of the most prominent cltlxens of this
section of Georgia, expresses the
wish that when the sumomns of the
Reaper comes to him, and friends car
ry his remains to the last resting
place, that ho be burled In the uni
form of the Confederate soldier. With
this end in'view, while in Gainesville
this week, be received an elegant new
spit from a tailoring establishment,
tbe grey suit worn by tbe boys of the
sixties and In this uniform be sat for
the photographer. In the war between
the states Mr. Julian was one of the
bravest of the brave soldiers of the
Confederacy. Many are acquainted
with the record he made on the field
of battle. Now, at bis advanced age.
be goes back In memory over the old
days when be shouldered the musket
and with his comrades left his north
east Georgia home on the march.
While those dayB were filled with
hardships and privations and pain
they were happy days to Mr. Julian
and 1>is fellow-comrades, for he was
fiFbtlng for the "Just but lost cause."
After the close of the war he went
to work In earnest to aid in rebuild
ing the devastated land of his nativi
ty and right successful he has been
in his labors. He has accumulated
quite an Income, has met success in
his business, and has taken a leading
stand in the politics and the progress
of this section of the state. He now
owns a large estate in Forsyth coun
ty, where Is bis home, and has the
fairest name, numbering his friends
by the scores.
ONE GEORGIA ORDINARY IS
AFRAID TO MARRY COUPLES
Lula, Ga.. Feb. 3.—He has been or
dinary of Hall county quite awhile,
and has been called on dozens of
times to perform the marriage cere
mony, but Judge W. E. Bolding baa
never officiated at the wedding of any
party. He states that he has not the
least desire to try a hand at marrying
people and does not want to take the
Initial step In the tying of nuptial
knots. "The thought of pronouncing
the words that, as the officiating offi
cer, shall make a man and woman
husband and wife," said Ordinary
Bolding, "makes me nervous and
trembly, and to atand before a cou
ple I believe verily I would shake all
over and might not be able to make
my tongue perform its function. IT
the words would come at all I know
they would come slow and seem weak
and I am afraid my voice would qulv-
er so that a minister who was accus
tomed to such ceremonies would have
to be called in to complete the cere
mony. I can't understand why I feel
that way about It, either," continued
the Judge. "I am not afraid, though
the wedding of loves is a most ser
ious thing and many matches are
mistakes.”
