STOLE l WHEEL
From a Prominent Merchant
Bogart Sunday Night
at
IS 8TILL AT LARGE.
He Have His Name as J. W. Roberts When
He Sold the Wheel at the Russell
Cycle Company For Ten
~ Dollars.
A fine Rambler bicycle, a man greedy
for gain, a quiet Sunday night and a
good road to AthenB, were a few things
that figure very prominently in this
story.
On last Sunday night, when all was
quiet in the little town of Bogart on the
Seaboard Air Line, a fine bicycle was
stolen from the fro«t porch of a Mr
Daniel’s borne.
Mr. Daniels and the other members of
the family went to church and the
wheel was left on the piazza as nothing
was thought of it. When they returned
from services the bicycle was gone. Mr.
Daniels came to Athens early Monday
morning in search of his stolen property.
Upon investigation, the wheel was
found at the shop of the Russell Cycle
Co. Messrs. Garnet Saye and C. V.
Chandler, who are in the employment
of the company, told of the way the
wheel got into their hands.
Very soon Monday morning a country-
looking rnbe came into the shop with a
tine, new Rambler wheel. He was
anxious to sell it. Said he had
taught it from a party at Bogart and it
had been broken once or twice and he
was not able to keep it in repairs. All
the while he had an anxious look in his
eyes, hat his statements were perfect,
so no suspicions were aroused. He was
given a check to the amount of ten
dollars for the wheel and hurriedly went
away. He gave his name as J. W.
Roberta.
Soon another appeared on the scene.
It was Mr. Daniels, the loser. He took
the wheel after properly identifying it.
Saye and Chandler are still “holding the
bag.” They are the losers as it turned
out.
Roberts has not been canght, but a
close look out for him is being made,
and he will probably be canght before
many more hours. His home is near
Bogart.
Mr. Chandler has gone to Bogart to
catch bis man if possible.

Washington, July 11.—The quarter
master’s department will not engage
any more transports at present for the
Padflo service as it is believed there will
be enough ships available to take all the
regiments and recruits to Manila that
are ready to go or will be ready daring
. the month.
Preparations are making, however, to
have sufficient transports on hand to
carry the new regiments to the Philip
pines as soon as they are prepared.
Major Long, chief commissary at San
Francisco, has been instructed to keep
in view any vessels available for trans
portation service that can be procured
about the last of August, the earliest
date believed possible to have any of the
new organizations in shape to sail.
Lucy Echols is a dnsky colored dam
sel of atant fourteen years of age. Lu
cy's mother says that the child’s mind
is weak, hut as Mayor Smith remarked,
her temper certainly is not.
The trouble arose as to the question of
who should monopolize the sidewalk.
The two white boys who figured in this
raoe question declared that Lnoy wanted
it all. As the white boys were not dis
posed to he overly generous there was a
collision.
Lacy got the worst of it and, so wit
nesses state, used language unbecoming
her sex or the provocation. The sensi
tive white boys were properly shocked
and made a case against their abuser.
In the court room the above facts
were proved. Lucy was given the floor
and spoke with much enthusiasm. She
declared that she hadn’t used the lan
guage ascribed to her bnt that she did
start to “w’ar her par’sol out on dem
ar white hoys.
Mayor Smith, in consideration of the
girl’s “weak mind,” and of the fact,
stated by Chief Oalp, that the girl’s
father had been bed-ridden for many
months, let the fiery Amazon off with a
fine of $1.25.
Froney Cole Tried.
Another daughter of Africa wasnp
for disorderly conduct.
Froney Ode had raised a small-sized
disturbance on the streets Saturday but
her offense was mild and she escaped

A trip to Tallulah Falls! What
can give more pleasure and produce
more genuine happiness to old or young
than to take a pleasant sojourn for a few
days, a few weeks or a few months, into
nature’s grand paradise of scenery, cli
mate and pure, invigorating air? We
have in close reach one of the finest sum
mer resorts in the sontli. Grander
scenery cannot he found in the “Land
of the Sky.” With all the improve
ments in hotels and railroads, this bids
fair to be the grandest season ever had
in these beautiful, health-giving soul-
inspiring mountains of north Georgia.
' v ~N»ture has showered her richest bless-
upon os, if we go up and see her noblest
workings, we can share the joys that
are intended for all who have a love for
the wonderful, the beautiful, the sub
lime. That pure mountain air, that feel
ing of close communion with natare,
that freedom from the cares that follow
men iu the cities and plains below, that
rest which is so peculiarly beneficial,
and many other things too numerous to
mention are characteristic of those
mighty inward forces which have each
telling effects on unhappy mankind—all
can be had in the vicinity of glorious
Tallulah Falls.
To those who have been there before,
there are many conveniencies which
coaid not he bad before, there are ways
and paths opened up that lead to scenery
that has been all obscure before. Many
more discoveries among the caves
can now he made. Many more rippling
little streams are to be seen. The ever
wonderful “Grand Chasm" is still there
and the more one sees it, the smaller he
feels, what an insignificant being roan
The scenes in that chasm are indis
cribable. Words are inadequate to even
suggest a feeble description of its splen
dor, its magnitude, its power. No one
bat John Raskin, that true son of natare,
that lover of loveliness, could draw a
vivid, realistic picture of such a scene.
Those wonderful falls are still plnuging.
The furious waters leaping down and
over rooks, seeming to be in a mad rush
for their powerful existence. Every
thing seems to grow grander, more pow
erful, more splendid as each month
passes into the realms of time. To those
who have not been, there are beauties
and wonders yet to he realized.
Hotel Accommodation*.
Tallnlah Falls is now blessed with as
fine hotel service as can be found at any
summer resort.
. The Cliff House, the old reliable
hostelry is open for the season and is
put under entirely new management
this season. Many improvements have
been made for the comfort of the guests
and they will have a successful season.
Mr. W. H. Davis, of this city, is the
popular manager of the house. Many
cottages are already filled. Several
boarding booses are receiving guests.
The Tallulah Lodge, that beautiful
new hotel is a wonder. No description
of the place can do it justice. It is a
grand, model hotel, of the very latest
design and pattern. Its chief feature is
convenience far its guests in every
way. Verily a splendid palace has been
erected in the midst of those rough
mountains in easy reach of everybody.
The management are making every en
deavor to please their guests and they
certainly have the most beautifully fur
nished and well adopted hotel for sum
mer swallows in the state of Georgia.
They merit the wonderful success they
have achieved.
The Railroad Facilities.
There is no excuse for any one to kick
on the railroad service that is given to
the Falls. The Tallulah Falls Railroad
has been thoroughly reconstructed, all

Its remarkable emollient, cleansing, and

in preserving, purifying, and beautifying

the form of washes and solutions for ulcer-
mtive weaknesses, annoying irritations and
chafings, as well as for many sanative pur
poses which readily suggest themselves.
In many of the above conditions, gentle
anointings with Cuticura, the great skin
cure and purest of emollients, in addition,
will prove of astonishing benefit.
the trtstlds have been made new. No
more danger confronts a passenger on
that road than on any other. President
Lauraine has done all in his power to
give the traveling publio the best rail
road service to the mountains that can
be fonnd in the south and he has suc
ceeded^ Quick schedules have been put
into effect. No long unnecessary wai’s
are made. Close connections are made
at every point. Elaborate new cooohes
have been put on and they are solid
comfort.
Many Athenians leave every week
over the North-Eastern of Georgia and
they are landed m Lula just iu good
time to change for the Southern train.
A ride on the Southern for twelve miles
pnts yon at Cornelia where the Tallulah
Falls train is in waiting and a short, trip
into the mountains lands you safe at
great summer resort. The North-East
ern, the Southern and the Tallnlah
Falls railroads are doing all they can to
render the best service ever given.
Traveling with them is a pleasure.
Go to Tallulah Falls. People are
rushing there daily from the Carolinas,
and from Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta,
Macon, Brunswick, and many other
places all over this and other states.
Athens is represented by a big colony.
The whole town seems to he moving
that way. It is the best summer resort
in Georgia and Georgians as well as
others have found it out. This a great
season for the grand “Niagara of the
South.”

MR. CARL SATE,
Athens is soon to have a new concern
to do business in this city and it prom
lses to open up sharp competition in sev
eral lines of business.
Mr. Charlie N. Hodgson, a popular
young business man of oar city, and the
Messrs. Blocks, of Macon, have made
full arrangements for the erection of a
fifteen ton ice machine at once. Messrs.
Blocks are prominent business men of
Macon and they operate one of the larg
est ice factories in the sonth.
The new plant will be Bituated on the
belt line between Oconee and Mitchell
Btreets. Work has been started and in
a short while the new factory will be
completed, though they will not do any
business till next spring. The well for
the water supply is now being dug and
is a mammoth one. Now that all ar
rangements are made, no delays will be
necessary.
It will be a stock company and they
now propose to add a cotton seed oil
mill to the business and they will fatten
cattle for the market. This is an
pecially good place for such-a business
and it most he a very successful under
taking. They will also handle coal and
wood, beginning this fall. They will
get coal in schooner quantities delivered
direct from the mines to Port Royal, S.
C., where they have a large warehouse
Athens will soon sec one of the best
equipped coal and wood yards in this
country and as fine an ice plant as can
be built, both of which are much needed
at this point, for competition is the life
of trade.
Athens is always ready and glad to
welcome such new enterprises and they
are always received with open arms.

There is no use talking—a baby in the house is the link that binds
husband and wife together. Nothing is sadder than fruitless wedlock.
The prattling and cooing of the little ones offset a thousand times the
occasional worries and trials of life. When a wife is barren, there is a
derangement somewhere in the genital organs, caused by one or more of
those common disorders known as “ female trouble”. Wine of Cardui
is the remedy. It puts the organs of generation in a strong and healthy
condition, fitting the wife for the s.icred duty of reproducing her kind

University Bovs Are Canvassing the State For
Subscriptions.
W. R. Ritchie, captain of the ’99 foot
ball eleven, will begin at once a canvass
of the city for financial assistance to bis
team.
A movement is now on foot among
the University stndentB in each city of
the state to secure funds for the ’99
eleven. In Atlanta, Augusta, Savan
nah, Macon, Rome, Columbus and other
places committees have been appointed
to see the recent alumni of the Univer
sity and collect from them as much
money as possible.
In this way it is expected to raise
over $100, Then the boys will have a
big meeting in theAhapel, when col
lege opens, and will raise the remainder
of the amount to be collected.
The association owes about $700 at
present. Prof. Morris, physical director,
has notified the football authorities that
at least $550 of the amount mu9t he
raised before the team will be allowed
to play a game. So the hoys are hard
at work.
Captain Ritchie himself will conduct
the Athens canvass. He will be assist
ed by several others and will make a
systematic effort to raise $100 among
the Athens alumni. Mr. Ritchie is
giving his time and best efforts to the
movement and deserves enoouragement
from the alumni. It is the one chance
for football, which he is trying.
The committee will ask for only $2
from each aluminas. Of course, larger
contributions would be gratefully re
ceived and every dollar helps. Those
who cannot giv $2 can surely spare $1.
This is a good cause and the alumni
re urged to respond.

Washington, July 11.—Senator Bacon
and Representative Bartlett had a
lenethy interview with the president to
day regarding appointments in the pro
visional army. The president said there

Chicago, July 11.—Mrs. Anne Eliza

kidnapped little Gerald Lapiner, was
taken to the Joilet penitentiary today.
She fought like a tigress and it required
three men to take her from her cell to
the cab in the jail yard.
Handcuffs were placed upon the wo
man, but she twisted one hand free,
struck Jailer Whitman in the face and
tore her clothes half off. When the jail
office was reached the aged kidnapper
threw herself on the floor, tore hand-
foils of hair from her head, screaming
and kicking with frantic energy at the
jailer and his assistant. She was finally
carried out bodily and held by main
force on the ride to the depot.

Principal of High Schools Killed by Disap
pointed Janitor.
Dallas, Tex., Jnly 11.—At 9:30 o’clock
last night one of the most startling
tragedies Dallas has ever known occurred
in the First Christian church, Pearl and
Bryan streets. In the midst of protract
ed meeting services John T. Carlisle
arose from his seat at the rear of the
house and walked to where Professor
Willial Lipscomb, principal of the Cen
tral High school, the leading educa
tional institution of the public schools
of the city, was seated, on the first
seat in the front of the altar, and
shot him without a word of warn
ing, the weapon used being a 38-
caliber pistol. Professor Lipscomb sprang
np from his seat, grappled with his as
sailant and toppled over into the aisle.
Carlisle was seized and taken to the
county jail. He appeared to be almost
helplessly drunk and could not, or would
not talk of the tragedy. Professor Lips
comb was too badly hurt to he removed
from the church. He was laid on''the
altar, his head resting in his wife’s lap
and his feet in a chair. He was reported
dead at 10:45 o’clock.
Carlisle had for nearly a year been
chief janitor of the high school, bnt
failed to he reappointed hy the school
board about ten days ago.
The Gossip.
More attention should be paid to the
old fashioned saying, “He who brings
will carry.” If a man brings bad sto
ries abont others to you, he will carry
bad stories about you to others. This
is so true it is a wonder that people
are not more cautious iu their talk
when with gossips. Don’t let any one
carry anything from you.—Atchison
