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. AJ.

That paragroph might be put in a personal column somewhere and as 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. T. HUGGINS & SON MARKCT'S ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ snr v ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ » GRIFFITH A WELCH COTTON ♦ REPORT.

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.” Phone your Sunday orders to Cafe Royal for disque and vanilla cream. FOR SALE AT COST.
