He says he isn’t going to do anything of the kind. “There is a mighty remote possibili ty of anything like that,” said the gov ernar, “since the only condition under which T would fetire is for my race to reach that point where I know I am go ing to get only one vote—my own— and then it would be different.” ! Governor Harris says he is “in it now and it will have to go through 'to the end. It has been customary to give a governor a second term, and 1 want it. I believe I'm going to get it, but if they don’t give it to me I am go ing to stay right in to the end and take my medicine.” : ¢ From a number of his friends out in the state the governor has had some interesting and encouraging letters gince the middle of the week. He is, naturally, interested in the contemplated political developments of the next few days, and was not sur prised at the entry of Solicitor Gen eral Hugh Dorsey in the race, but he dees not believe that Hon. Joseph E. Potlle, of Milledgeville, will oppose him. 4 SOUTHERN LADIES DO NOT SMOKE—OF COURSE i tanta a 5 iy 955 A o en do not smoke cigarettes, Most em phatically not. Leastways, that is the information furnished the. Néw York World by Mrs. John K. Ottley of At ’ lanta, wife of the viue president of the Fourth National Bank and hergelf one of Atlanta’s most prominent women in club and social life. It 'seems that the World was getting up a sort of census on woman smokers throughout the. country, and the final conclugion based yipon reports from, all the prin cipal gities sgmn@a*up the nbn-sniok ing; zones as thé gouth, the west 'and‘ the northeast; the twilight zone, where women sometintés smoke, being con doned but not encouraged as Boston, Philadelphia® and- Kansas Cily; ' and the wothen's nicotine paradise as New oßimp -t g 4P ?&ﬂ’t"mwje woman in Atlan ta who”smokes, not even in lier own home,”” ig' Mrs. Otley’s’ information to the World, which she reiterated yes terday -in interview in Atlanta papers. This goes for women of all classes, from the rich women of fashionable society to the working women who live on small salaries. : 42 MEXICANS SLAIN ? IN RUNNING FIGHT Field Headquarters, Near Namiqui pa, by Wireless to Columbus, N, M., May B.—a full squadron of two hun dred and thirty men of the Eleventh cavalry surprised and routed a much larger force of Villa’s bandits at Ojo- Azules, 17 miles south of Cosihuira chic, early Thursday morning. Forty two Mexicans were killed and a fum ber wounded. There were no Ameri can casualites. v ‘The American command, under; Ma: jor Bobert L. Howze, had been ‘pur suing the bandits under General Cruz Dominguez and Julio Acosta, for sev eral days when they encountered them encamped in the huddle adobe huts of Ojo-Azules. : The Mexicans were completely sur prised and sprang from their pallets half clothed. After firing a few wild shots they began a flight, each man ghifting for his own safety. Some of them were able to seize their horses already jaded from a hard day’s ride, but others fled into the hills afoot. In a billiard room in Paris is a table made of glass. It is much more diffi cult to make a shot on it than on the ordinary taize-covered table. & TRADE BAROMETER REGISTERS HIGH New York, May 6.—A week ago the United States Steel corporation pub lished its earnings for the 2 months ended March 31, showing net at $60,- 7132,0006. Those figures were $9,500,- 000, or 18 per cent above the new high quarterly record established on De cember 31, 1915, and $17,000,000, or 40 per cent above the previous high ’water mark which was made in the 'March quarter of IYO7. This week a ;number of large railroad systems pub lished their earnings for the month of March. Those statements, even more’ than the figures published by the steel corporation, show plainly that ~the whole country is experiencing a vigor ous trade revival, For more than a generation ‘the ups and downs of the steel business have been accepted as indicating the trend of general trade; in recent years however, closer attén tion has been paid by students of in dustrial conditions ‘to the detailed statements of monthly earnings pub lished by the railroads. All but a very few of the steel mills are east of the Misdissippi; the monthly earnings re ports of railroads published by the government cover every section of the country from Canada to the gulf and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. ARSENIC NO POISON : ‘ FOR ORDINARY DOG Atlanta, Ga., May 9.—Taking his cue from tl_le‘ experiment conducted by Dr. W, Jay Bell, an Atlanta physi cian, under the observation of the Geor gia state veterinarian and the Geor gia state prison commission members, another Georgia physician has admin istered large doses of arsenic to a dog and proven at least to His own person al and prefessional satisfaction that arsenic is not a poison so far as the canine. tribe is concerned. . The latest to try the experiment is Dr. C. A. Harris, of the Rock, Ga. who gave a dog daily doses in increasing quantity without any harmful effect whatever to the dog. The first day he gave the dog one fourth of a grain of arsenic; the sec ond day one-half of a grain; the third day, one grain; the fourth day, two grains; the fifty day, four grains; the sixth day, eight grains. “I am convinced,” declared Dr. Har ris after finishing the experiment,“that the only way to kill a dog with arsenic is to give him so much that you choke him to death.” NEW PCLICE RECORD 2 ! FOR ATLANTA DRUNKS Atlanta, Ga. May 9.--Siict enfe. & ment oy the Atlanta police autliori tics of Georgia’s new proLibition laws resulted yesterday in 'the establish ment of an unparalled police court record, when for the first time in fifty vears not a single defendant faced the recorder for drunkeness. sy At the Monday morning session of the week previous, no less than twen ty-five men and women, black and white, were tried for drunkeness, and that number was rather below the us ual average for Monday morning, which is the session at which the Sat urday night haul of drunks and disor derly cases are arraigned for trial. Police court records of Atlanta go back fifty years, and in that period not a single Monday morning has pass ed, except the one yesterday, with an absolutely clear docket so far as the ‘drunks are concerned.
