Another Ukely proposition Is that U
DeGlve A Son will offer quarters for
the United States court If they decide
to build the seven-story structure. Mr.
Home stated last night that nothing
had been done towards a proposition
of this kind, but did not know one
would not be made when the other
plans had been completed.

building which has been planned for
the theatre.
One of the matters discussed was
the proposition to rent to the Elks the
top floor of the building. The com
mittee from the Elks was In confer
ence with Mr. Horne and Mr. Horlne
and will make their report to the body
at the next meeting. A proposition
has been made to the Elks which will
cadi for consideration, but nothing can
be given out as to what will be done
when the proposition is submitted.
The success of the plans for the
seven-story building will depend on
the further action of both the owners
of the theatre and parties with whom
they are negotiating. It Is stated that
a plan has been submitted which will
give the Elks the entire top floor. An
other has been talked of which would
allow the Kika to occupy both the sixth
and seventh stories In the event that
they furnish some of the stock which
Is to be taken In the building. These
nee only reported offers and do pot
come from any of the parties con
cerned. The committee from the Elks
have only the power to confer with the
men who have the building under
of erection. The offers may be
entirety different when the final deal
Is made, but It Is known that it Is pos
sible to make an agreement with this
body so that tho rooma of the club
will occupy part of tho building.
the work now under way in Macon.
This la a certainty whatever else is
done. Tho announcement la made that
there will likely be no play on the
boards before November 15. but this is
done In order to allow time for the com
pletion of the building. No play will be
seen on the stage In the new play bouse
here until It is finished throughout.
But the work Is under way on all
sides for the speedy completion of the
theatre. The scenery Is already fin
ished and the chairs for the full seat
ing capacity have been ordered. Fancy
decorative work has also been finished
and other matters are having the at
tention of the contractors and the own
ers so that much will be done within
the next month.
This building has the same seating
capacity of the Grand In Atlanta. The
theatre is styled exactly like the Grand
but the finishing will be more expen
sive for the Macon play house and
when It Is completed it will be a far
more handsome theatre than any In
Atlanta or In the state.
Mr. Henry Horne, who has long been
Interested in the attractions coming to
Macon. Is not only highly pleased at
the prospects of having one of the fin
est theatres in the South, but thinks
that Macon will he able to begin the
season with nothing short of the very

General Manage! Martin Calvin and

turned from a trip to Havvkinsville, and
report that in that sesllon of the state
the people are looking with Interest t/>

Receiver Corbin Turned Over ihe Re

Witherspoon at Versailles, Ky.
16 fast hordes belonging to the es
tate of R, II. Plant which have been
In the charge of Receiver Corbin at
Idle Hour Farm were shipped yester
day to Versailles, Ky., where they go
to be handled by Lister Witherspoon,
who was recently appointed commis
sioner for their charge and sale by
Judge Emory Speer.
Receiver Corbin Was busy yesterday
arranging to ship the horses. He has
had some difficulty in getting a car
for the shipment, but with this ship
ment all the fast horses In Macon have
gone to Kentucky, save four or five,
which the court directed to be held
by Mr. Corbin In Macon.
Receiver Corbin has made several
sales of the fast horses since he has
had charge of them but there were
still about twenty th be shipped to
Kentucky. There are others number
ing 64 in all, which are consigned to
the care of Mr. Witherspoon. It is not
yet known whether he 'will have them
all at his home In Versailles or keep
them at the points where they are now.
This was left to the discretion of the
commissioner when he was appointed
and he has not acted. The horses in
Macori were ordered shipped.
Receiver Corbin believes this to be a
wise act of the court. He has handled
the stock at Idle Hour Farm in an
excellent manner, but feels that an ex
perienced stock man should have
charge of the horses and he believes
that the remaining horses will be well
disposed of. The sales made by the
receiver In Macon have brought large
returns for the horses and it is stated
that if the remaining sales result In
as good amounts as those managed by
the receiver here, a large amount will
be reulixed in the final settlement

Syracuse Deserved to Win.
Casper Whitney In August Outing.
There has been. 1 observe, much
casting about for satisfactory explana
tion of the results of the college boat
races on the Hudson and on the
Thames. Some people never will be
satisfied with the obvious simple rea
son; always there must be research
for the occult. Syracuse won the
Varsity and the Freshmen races en
tirely rfh the merit* of Its crews, which
except for lighter catch and shorter
reach, suggested English form rather
more than I have yet aeen In America;
there w«« the comparatively ragged
body work; but fine wntermanshlp,
i»n»l the long stroke In the water fln-
t*4-d with great force. But despite its
appenrunc* of power, I do not regard
the 1804 Syracuse a fast crew, nor the
stroke It rowed equal to making very
fast crews; It needs more power at the
lwglnntn*. Yet Syracuse rowed fast
enough to win nnd showed the ground
work of a stroke which. In It* further
development, will no doubt fceep the
others. Including Cornell, gtiewslng.
This year’s results may be accepted n*
suggestive rather than conclusive, for
the time. 20m., 23 3-5. was the slow
est since 1887. while In nine years of
Freshman eights on the Hudson, only
twice before has the time been so stow
as in 1804. With two exceptions, the
time of the ’Varsity four*, won by
Cornell Columbia second, was the
slowest since the race was Inaugurat
ed. It was a year of comparative slow
rowing on the Hudson, the time of the
winning 'Varsity In 1904 being slower
than that of the last finisher to be
timed in any year at **oughkeer*le
sine* 1882. when Columbia finished
last of four crews In 20 m. 20 sec.
Whether or no It was because two
of the oarsmen had previously sat in
the four. It is none the leas a fact
that the Cornell *Varoltv of 1904 was
the poorest In point of power and
speed of six veara. Ita form wa*
“pretty.” but lacked in force; It rowed
short after two and a half mile*, and
had no sprint In It. no steam, even
when the stroke was raised. It was
th* Cornell stroke of 1886.
Pennsylvania showed a little im
provement on tha catch, where they
needed it th.» moat Perhaps we shall

Cleopatra and Antony were having a

You’re all right,” the versatile queen
s saying, “but your face is against

"It'll be against you In a minute,” re

for which he was famous.
And history records that it was.
Lancelot had just refused a proposal
of marrlnge from Elaine, the Lily Maid
of A "tola t.
“Nope.” he said, "no leap year girls
In mine.”
Saying which, he went nnc\ whisper

And she exhibited a porterhouse

To Avoid Aeeldentx on the Water.
(Casper Whitney In August Outing)
Apropos of the Slocum disaster, a
little advice from such a well known
authority as Caspar Whitney, editor of
Outing, will be welcome. He writes In
August Outing:
So many lives are lost each season
on the water by criminal carelessness
and Ignorance, that, at the risk of be
ing trite. 1 am repeating a fbw timely
don’ta for those who number rowing
or sailing among their summer recre
ations.
First—Do not go out In a canoe row-
boat or snll-boet. small or large, un
less It carries enough life-saving buoys
or cushions to float all on board In case
or nn upeet or collision.
Second—Do not go out in a tall-boat
except with a skipper of experience.
Many a boatload Is upset through the
mistaken Idea, prevalent at summer re
sorts. that anyone can handle a small
sail-boat. In case .of fatal arldent the
guilty. Incompetent skipper should get
ten years* Imprisonment at hard labor.
Third—In case of a party in a row-
boat, be sure you are finally seated bq.
for* leaving shore, particularly if there
are girls. Permit no one to attempt
to exchange seats ufter leaving shore,
or to put a foot oh the edge or gun
wale of the boat to exchange seats, or
to rock the boat. Hocking boats ffir
fun by rollicking young people loses
many lives every year. Where the
waters become rough from a sudden
squall or a passing steamer, never rise
In the boat, but settle down ns close
to the bottom as possible, until the
water Is smooth again—and don't
scream or talk to the oarstnan.
Fourth—If overturned, a non-swim
mer by drawing the arms up to the
•ides and pushing down with widely
extended hands, while stall-climbing,
or treading water- with the feet, may
keep up several minutes, often when
single minute means life; cr throwing
out the arms, dog fashion, forward
overhand nnd pulling in. aa If reach
ing for something, may keep one st
least afloat until help comes, a wo
man's skirts, held out by her extended
arms, while Rhe uses her feet ns If
climbing stairs, will often keep
until
