Dispatches from Europe state the
Grand Duke Nicholas has been captur
ed by the Teutons, together with the
former dowager empress of Russia.
Following the downfall of the Roman
off dynasty the Grand Duke Nicholas,
with other members of the former
rcyal family who were not sent into
exile, retired to their estates on the
Chimean peninsula, where they were
when that country fell into the hands
of the invader. The Grand Duke Nich
olas is considered by many military ex
perts the greatest leader produced on
the side of the Allies during the war.
Preventive of Tarnish.
To keep brass beds and other kinds
of brass work from tarnishing, and
also to avoid frequent polishing, the
brass should be lacquered with gum
shellac dissolved tn alcohol. The lac
quer should be applied with a small
paint brush. Ten cents worth of it
will lacquer a bedstead.

IN CONTROVERSY
ATLANTA, Ga., May 14. —The con
troversy between the Georgia Railway
& Power Company of this city and the
so-called people's committee, which is
making war on the company's peti
tion for increased rates has taken a
sensational turn which threatens to
prove embarrassing to the committee.
In defending its petition against the
attacks being made upon it by the
committee, the power company shows
that several of the leading members of
the committee were closely associated
with agitation conducted by the street
car strikers in 1916, when the city was.
almost thrown into a reign of terror
by the dynamiting of trolley cars and
other acts of violence from which in
nocent passengers were the principal
sufferers.
John S. McClelland, one of the aider
men on the people’s committee, is the
lawyer who defended William Pollard,
the strike leader tried for inciting
the strikers to the use of dynamite
and circulating incendiary and riotous
(literature.
I John J.. Fagan, the vice-chairman
iof the commttee, was a member of
the strikers’ committee composed of
himself, Marion Jackson, Thomas B.
Felder and others, who launched an
attack on the power company before
I the railroad commission in connection
i with the strke. The power company
claims that the strikers’ committee
procured a report by Ballard & Com
pany attacking the company’s rates,
' service and capitalization, and threat
, ened to publish this report unless the
company recognized the Amalgamated
Association of Street and Electric
Emloyees of America.
Earl E. Riggs, secretary of the peo
ple’s committee, is a prominent figure
in the Atlanta Federation of Trades,
which offically encouraged the street
car strike and attempted to enfore
a recognition of the car men's union.
•Claude L. Ashley, another member of
the people’s committee, is also a prom
inent labor leader in the federation
George F. King has been closely as
sociated with John J. Fagan in the
latter’s ventures with Marion M. Jack-
