First Class Illustrations Will

The Times-Recorder has added an
other feature that the management is
!sure will please the readers of the pa

Iby which the local paper will be able

Nothing adds to a good paper as
much as good, clear cuts of subjects
in the public eye. The service as used
by The Times-Recorder is far-reaching
in its scope. It is usually carried by
only the larger papers of the country,
such papers as the Birmingham Led
ger, the Houston Post, and the Atlanta
Journal using it. The Times-Record
er is fortunate in being able to secure
the service for its readers.
During the coming world's series,
special feature pictures of the hap
penings of the big games will be il
lustrated. The Times-Recorder read
ers will be able to gaze upon the fea
tures of Muggsy McGraw and of Con
nie Mack, together with their aggre
gation of stars.
‘CUPID SPECIAL’ MAKES
RECORD RUN TO CAPITAL
Washington, D. C., Sept. 19. —The
“Cupid Special’’ from Richmond, Va..
under the direction of Mrs. J. R. Gill,
made a record run to the national
capital yesterday with twelve passen
gers. By nightfall, five of the coupl-33
had secured licenses and had been
married.
Mrs. Gill has personally conducted
over 500 marriages in the last ten
years, and points with pride to the
fact that not one of her couples has
sought release in the divorce courts.

New Haven, Conn., Sept. 19. —The

No official statement was made at
Yale university today as to the suc

President William H. Taft, now Kent
professor of law in Yale college, s
mentioned on all sides. Professor
Taft and his family returned from

An Editor's Savings.
Did any one ever hear of a country
editor that ever had any money? They
I are as hard to find as it is to find the
J aurora borealis at the equator. They
just keep pegging, giving free notices
of the happenings, giving their space
for all the charitable enterprises, mak
. g donations to whatever comes along,
doing what little good they can to
' • ards the uplifting of theif sections
and the uplift of their people, saying,
saying good things of the people wl.o
die and get married, but money is a
commodity unknown to them. But a
wealthy one has been discovered. Says
the Editor and Publisher:
An editor who started about twenty
years ago with only fifty-five cents, is
now worth SIOO,OOO.
His accumulation of wealth is owing
to his frugality, good habits, strict at
tention to business, and the fact that
an uncle died and left him $99,999.
Catarrh Cannot Be Cured
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh a blood
or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it
you must take Internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, and acts directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is not a quack medicine. It was pre
scribed by one of the best physicians in this
country for years and is a regular prescription.
It is composed of the best tonics known, com
bined with the bt'st blood purifiers, acting di
rectly on the mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of the two ingredients is what pro
duces such wonderful results in curing catarrh,
t nd for testimonials, free.

NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY
FUTURE AGREEMENTS
WILL BE KEPT SECRET
Washington, Sept. 19.—Democratic
members of the tariff conference com- j
mittee now engaged in adjusting dis- \
ferences between the two houses on
the tariff bill, decided today not to I
i
make public any further agreements \
i ntil the conference work is comple- j
ted. Publication of agreements during !
the past few days has brought many
demands upon the conferees for the
re-opening of certain schedules, and
they have determined hereafter to
maintain silence.
Chairman Simmons, of the senate
conferees, said tonight the work was
progressing more rapidly than he had
expected, and he thought a report
might be completed by the end of th.s
week.
The conferees have finished with
the free list and began on the remain
ing items in the dutiable schedules.

PHILO H. SMITH, N. P., S. Co., Ga.
When they adjourned they had gone
over the bill for the second time as far
as the third schedule, that covering
metal and metal products. There was
a long debate over the wheat and flour
provisions of the bill, house members
objecting to the senate amendment im
posing a duty of 10 cents a bushel o;>
! wheat coming from a country that lev
ies a duty against wheat from the Unit
ed States. This question was not set
tled.
The conferees agreed to leave pig
iron on the free list where the senate
put it, but did not determine whether
ferro manganese ore should also be
free. A compromise was effected on the
automobile schedule by which the low
rates fixed by the senate were in
creased slightly, and an agreement was
reached on the glove schedule, reduc
ing somewhat the increases in rates
made by the senate.
WE’LL HAVE FRAUDS
WITH US UNTIL
CHRISTMAS TIME
Atlanta, Sept. 19.—1 n conformity
with the statements ventured at the
time by the papers that there has never
been the slightest possibility of hanging
Frank on the date originally set for
the execution, it is announced today
that the motion for a new trial will not
be heard in the lower court until De
cember and that in the meantime, there
will be a respite to carry the time o”
execution over into the next year.
An interesting complication is the
fact that the motion will not be
heard by Judge L. S. Roan, who pre
sided at the trial, but by Judge Ben Hill
who steps down from the state court of
appeals to the superior court bench
under from Governor
Slaton.
SAYS DOCTOR IS GUILTY
AND SHOULD BE HANGED
Such the Opinion of Solicitor
General
Savannah, Ga., Sept. 19. —“Dr. Mc-
Naughton is as guilty as a dog and
ought to be hanged,’’ said R Lee Moore
solicitor general of the circuit in which
Emanuel county is located, today. Mr
Moore is in Savannah today and .will
go to Atlanta Monday to protest
against any commutation of the doc
tor’s sentence, or the granting of a
pardon to him. Mr. Moore is the solic
itor general who convicted Mrs. God
bee at Millen last week. He says he
has no idea that Mrs. Godbee will get
a new trial, and if she does she can be
readily convicted again.
Two can sometimes live as cheaply
as one—if one has dyspepsia.
SNEAK THIEF GETS ODDS
AND ENDS FROM OFFICE
LINOTYPE OPERATOR WHO LOST
HIS PAMS IN A SORROW
PLIGHT.
A rather persistent sneak thief seems
to be operating in the office of The
Times-Recorder recently, and his lat
est visit was on Thursday night c r
early Friday morning, when a pair of
old trousers used by a linotype opera
tor was stolen, together with a small
key to a tool box. The trousers are of
small value, and the operator in ques
tion does not mind the loss of them,
but would like to have the key return
ed. A number of small tools and parts
of machinery have been missed during
the past few weeks, as well, and the
police have been asked to apprehend
the thief, but as yet have been unsuc
cessful. There is no clew as to his
identity.
Isn’t it a pity some people will ste l l
such small things?
ATLANTA POLICE
JUST CAN’T BEHAVE
Atlanta, Sept. 19. —The Atlanta city
police force, or, to be more just, indi
vidual members of it, are getting “in
tad,’’ in a dozen different ways re
cently by alleged defections from the
straight and narrow path. Some have
been accused of drunkness, some of
shielding vice, some of kissing ladies
in the park, and now Detective John
Black has got himself arrested for en
gaging in a fist-fight in Birmingham.
The man Black is alleged to have
fought with is J. F. Hargrove, also of
Atlanta. Since the affair occurred
while Black was off duty, and in an
other city, there seems to be some
question as to whether charges will
be preferred against him here, or
what jurisdiction the local police
board would have in the affair.
SURGEONS DEFEND
HIGH-HEELED SHOES
Denver, Col., Sept. 19. —The milituy
surgeons’ convention here decided tin'.*
women should wear high heels, because
low r ones break the arch of the fo?t
and cause shock to the nervous sys
tem. Short and narrow slit skirts,
they said, should be worn for the sake
of health and comfort.
