ATLANTA, Ga., July 24.-—A petition was filed in the penitentiary office this morning for Dollie Pritchett. The pe tition Is signed by Shepard Bryan ahd W. A. Bachelor of Atlanta and W. A. Teasley pf Canton, representing the Georgia Federation of Women's Clubs, with headquarters In this city. The petitioners claim that when a hearing is had in the ca3e they will present pe titions signed by every member of tho coroner’s Jury and coroner, every mem ber of the grand Jury that found the indictment, every member of the Jury that tried the case and the solicitor general who prosecuted the woman. The petition also sets forth that If Dollie Pritchett Is given a pardon that the Federation of Women's Clubs will send her to a reformatory where an effort will be made to reclaim her. The woman, Dollie Pritchett is now about 20 years of age. Two years ago she convicted of the crlm** of infanticide In the superior court of Cherokee coun tV and given a sentence for life In tho penitentiary. Since conviction she has been confined at the state farm. Whllo all of these efforts are being made in .behalf of the womhn It Is said that she does not appreciate- what her friends are doing for her as she docs not desire to be sent to a reformatory nnd her relatives are also opposed to this disposition being mnde of her. One of the objectors, her father, died a few weeks ago. reducing the opposi tion this much, but Dollie and the oth or members of the family are still opposed to the reformatory scheme. With this condition of affairs, it hardly probable that a pnrdon will be granted her by the board. It Is argued that as soon as a pardon is granted, control over her actions by the boarjl ceases, and that there Is no good rea son for granting clemency In her case unless It be to send her to a roforma tory.

The returns made by tho Southern Railway system of its property Georgia ns amended by the comptrol ler-general, with the exception of the terminal property of tho company lo cated In Brunswick, have been agreed upon by tho comptrollor-genero.1 and the officials of the system. The agree ment was reached today which was the last day allowed by law. Some months ago tho officials of the ny tem submitted a schedule of the taxa bio value of the property to Comptrol ler-General Wright. The comptroller, after weighing the figures of the rev eral Items, accepted some of them as given in and increased others. These Increases have been acceed*d to by tho company with the exception of the item with reference to the tnxablo value of the terminal property of tho company in Brunswick. The difference here is about $100,000, the company holding that the authorities of Br^ns wick wero right in the valuation, of the property, which was $100,000 more than the same Was returned for taxes by the officials of the system. These differences will be arbitrated later on at the suggestion of the Southern rail way. This morning this -"uggestlon was made to the comptroller-general, knd he agreed to let the matter take that course. Judge' Spencer It. Atkin son of the board «of railroad commi slonere will represent the state. Tho Southern will In a few days name It* man and tho work of placing a value upon the property of the company will then be commenced. Comptroller- General Wright says that he feels sat isfied that the whole matter will be settled amicably in a few days, elusive of the value of the terminals of the company at Brunswick, the en tire value of the property of the *yr- tem in this state foots up $10,400,000.

In addition to this large quantities of this marbie are now being used for other purposes. Ive immense quarries are now being orkecl on the lino of the Atlanta. Knoxville and Northern rnllroad, the freights given the road from this source contribute largely to tho revo nues of the line. As an evidence of the magnitude of this business a con tract was closed a few days ago with of these quarries for 1,500 car loads of marble to be shipped north for a public building. At ten cars to to the train, which would be a safe estimate, owing to tho dead weight of tho product, it will take 150 trains to handlo this single shipment. Confederate Veteran Near Death. It looks very much as If the passim away of Wendel Levy will record the first death to occur at the Soldiers' Home since It was opened. The veteran, now 6'J years of nge, is on the brink of tho grave and has been there for several days. Old man Levy one of the first Inmates to enter tho home. He entored tho eervlco of tho Confederacy ns a member of C'orr H, commanded by Capt. T. B. Cabanlns of Forsyth, of the First Georgia, com manded by Col. Ramsey, which com mand saw service in West Virginia. Here he remained twelve months nnd was then transferred to the Fifty-ninth Georgia, commanded by Col. Jack Brown of Amerlcus. He enlisted from Marlon county and made a gallant sol dier. Since tbe war he has been living near Buena Vista, first keeping a small store and then engaged In peddling spectacles. Convict Farm Prosper*. ^ Gen. Clement A. Evans hns returned from a visit to the state farm near MH- ledgevlllo. He reports that the farm Is In a most prosperous condition and that all of the crops look well, thinks that the farm will make about 200 bales of cotton this year, and ap proxlmately 10.000 buehela of corn, be sides large quantities of oats, potatoes and everything else. The live stock at the farm, he says, is Increasing very rapidly and thnt there are now there over a hundred head of cattle. i*Ion of certain land, together with a rltlng entered thereon by apparently Private person, being In'en-'- t m t or- fle.ite from such person identifying as certain land described in a 1. without proof of the correctness of the t. As,-however, such a plat i* im- te.rlal to the issues in an action to over rent of land where title is« not question, such error does not au- horlze at verdict in favor of the plain tiff to be B?t aside and a new trial to be granted. 5.

The prohibitory terms of the statute (Civil Code, sec. 4998) apply only to those persons who have ns plaintiffs in a prior ejectment suit, recovered possession. Hence amendment to a plen, setting up djudlcation of title under such a pro ceeding as It first nbove Indicated, w properly overruled. * 7. When to an action instituted against him an executor has filed a plea of plene udmlnlstravlt praele»*, and a Judgment following tho verdict against him does not authorize tho seizure of the personal goods of the executor to satisfy the Judmont, a versal of such Judgment will not had for tho fnllure of the trial Judge to properly churge the Jury In rela tion to tho effect of their verdict, nor the refuml to admit specified dence going to show that there are other debts of higher dignity than that of tho plaintiff, sufficient to absorb tho entire estate In his hands. 8. There was no error In refusing to admit in evidence the will of the tes tator, as there was no question of tho fact that tho plntntiff was tho owner of tho land to recover tho rent which the notion wna Instituted. 9. A verdict finding a given sum against the executor, “to be paid ou of any assets In tho hands or that como Into the hands of the executor to be administered on,“ and a Judgment that the sums named in the verdict bo levied of the goods nnd chattels lands and tenements of the deceased in the hands of the executor, nnd of the goods and chattels, lands and ten ements that may como Into the hands of the executor, belonging to the es tate of tho deceased, are not Incon sistent.

To have a smooth, soft skin, free from all eruptions, tbe blood must be kept pure and healthy. The many preparations of arsenic and potash and the large number of face powders and lotions generally used in this class of diseases cover up for a short time, but cannot remove per manently the ugly blotches aud the red, disfiguring pimples.
