'If any one should as much as even
ask you on the quiet if I am going to
Atlanta, Just bend over a little and
whUper In their eager ear, nay, nav,
Pauline. There Is nothing to IL Ma
con suits me. and although I would
like to see Manager Powell and his
husky crew land the pennant In the
Southern League, my services will
continue with the Highlanders until
the parting salute of the Macon club
Is fired down In Jaytown."
“Why, we all understood that you
fully Intended making the trip."
"Sure thing," Alvin replied, "but
times have changed since then and I
intend to stick it through with the
local club. They seem to be In a rather
close place here at present and I am
going to stay and have a hand In the
wind-up. I have been pitching for
Macon all season and can’t reconcile
the idea of Jumping to foreign parts
Just as the pennant sweepstakes of the
league are about due."
So the situation lies and the fair-*
haired twlrler of the local outfit will
continue until the end of things this
season to work with the local troupe.
Then perhaps he may be Induced to
Join the tribe of Ab and do what he is
able to bolster the waning hopes of
Atlanta. That Atlanta is in need of a
few Jam-up slabmen Is known
throughout Southern balldom, but that
hardly warrants Macon’s best pitcher
making the trip to help land the pen
nant in another town when Macon has
not yet entirely cinched the rag.

Primaries in Greater New York Today,
NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—Primaries
throughout Greater Now York will be
held tomorrow and the Interest cen
ters In the borough of Brooklyn. Thero
the leadership of State Senator Me*
Carren is In the balance and the fight
promises to bo a bitter one from tho
opening of tho pqlls, The labor lead
ers of Brooklyn today served notice
on State Chairman Cord Meyer that
Senator McCnrren would have to re
sign as chairman of tho state execu
tive committee. If he Is not promptly
dropped from Democratic councils the
labor men say that 100,000 Democrats
Identified with, the building trades will
vote against Parker and Davis. They
had previously written to Chairman
Meyer, and today they called upon him
as a committee to emphasize their de
mands. He gave them no definite re
ply. The only district In which the
Issue Is at all In doubt on the Repub

will not be more than one Democratic

Lizzie Banks and Mary Malcom, two
negro women, are today confined at the
city hospital ns a result of Injuries re
ceived late yesterday afternoon at the
corner of Third and Poplar streets,
Together with two other negroes, the
women were riding In a wagon drawn
by a mule along Third street In the
vicinity of Poplar. Just before Poplar
was reached the mule, becoming
startled, began a mad rush up the
street. Just as Poplar street was
reached the wagon was struck by an
Indian Spring trolley car. Hhc vehicle
was turned completely over and Its
occupants scattered over the street,
Two of the negroes picked themselves
up but the women remained in the po
sitions In which they fell from the
wagon.
An ambulance was summoned and
both were removed to the city hospi
tnl, where their wounds were dressed.
The Banks woman sustained severe
scalp wounds, a broken shoulder blade
and a broken collar bone. The extent
of the injuries of the other negro Is
yet unknown. It Is thought by the
attending physicians that she was hurt
Internally.

The most valuable catch In a long
time at police headquarters occurred
some time Sunday night as develop
ments proved yesterday when a negro
told his story and implicated others.
Elijah Jones who is well known In both
Macon and Atlanta as a professional
crook, was placed In the barracks by
the city detectives after a negro wo
man had been seen wearing some sto
len goods. The officers arrested her
and she told them that she had been
presented with a white hat by the ne
gro. Elijah Jones, now under the charge
of burglary. She gave the description
so that the officers located their man
and awaited his return from Atlanta,
where he had gone to dispose of his
goods. It was not long before he was
seen on Fourth street and when Recor
der Nottingham appeared at court yes
terday morning he found Jones on the
prisoners’ bench.
Jones had been In Atlanta after he
committed a burglary in McRea’s pawn
shop in South Macon. The goods from
this shop helped to effect the arrest
When he was captured Jones implicate
Spencer Brown, another negro. He
claimed that the two had burglarized
the store. The other negro was prompt
ly arrested.
Not long ago the pawn shop of L.
Goldman was broken open In the ren'
these negroes and they would have
committed a robbery there, but for the
noise made by the hands working at
Newman’s bakery. Jones and Brown
had secured a crow bar from the
Southern railroad yards and made the
attempt to rob Goldman’s establish
ment with this Instrument. The offi
cers secured the crow bar and it was
Identified at the railroad yards. It
again stolen and the pawn shop In
South Macon was burglarized. A white
hat worn by the negro woman had been
stolen from the shop and this caused
the negroes to be arrested. When taken
into custody by the officers they found
an unmatched pair of cuff buttons
orn by Jones which corresponded
with the pair left In the South Macon
pawn shop, and Jones wns forced to
admit his guilt. When he say that he
was caught he told the officers he had
been Implicated In both Instances and
told where to secure a large amount of
stolen goods.
The officers were busy yesterday
gathering up some Jewelry, clothes and
other goods stolen by the negroes.

Jones and It Is thought thnt he has
been engaged In working hls robberies
upon residents of Atlanta and Macon
for a long time. A nice pair of shoes
mnrked "Kiser King. 18.50," were taken
from Jones after hls arrest. A number
of other articles found In hls pocket
ill ennble th officers to trace out a
series of burglaries.
Lee Rlngwood, n third negro, was Im
plicated later In the day and will likely
be unable to extricate himself when he
Is tried. A bond of $150 for carrying
concealed weapons, one of $300 on a
charge of burglary and one for $500 on
a second charge of burglary were fixed
for Jones at recorders' court yesterday,
and he went to Jail.
Lee Rlngwood went to Jnil under a
bond of $200 on a charge of burglary,
and Rpencer Brown also went under
bond of $200 on a like charge. The three
negroes went over to superior court and
will have a hearing before Judge Fel

Macon Young Lady Accomplishes
Remarkable Feat at Virginia Beach
NORFOLK. Va., Aug. 29.—Miss Mar
garet Calloway, qf Macon, Ga., one of
the attractive girls at Virginia Beach
this summer, performed a daring feat
that has made a heroine of her at the
populnr spQsido resort.
The great hulk of the stranded bark
Henry R. Hyde has been tied hard nnd
fast In the sand a quarter of a mile or
so off shore, seven miles below the
Prlness Ann hotel. The wreck has
been the principal objective point for
long tramps along the coast and nil-
da y outings among the young people nt
Vlrginln Beach. The men have made
repeated trips nt low tide to the ship
nnd scaled n high rope swung over the
port bow. but the representatives of the
weaker but fairer sex could never be
persuaded to nttompt the dangerous
nscent. It fell to tho lot of Miss Callo
way to mnke herself the envied of girls
and the ndmlrnd of men. She walked
out to the bark one morning with Dr.
Brown, a young physician of Washing
ton, D. C., nnd climbed up the steep nnd
slippery Incline ns easily and gracefully
as an acrobat In a circus while the
crowd back ashore waved their hand
kerchiefs and cheered nnd cheered
again. Tho climb down again was per
formed with the same grace as the ns
cent.
"I don’t know why, but I had an
overmastering desire to get aboard thnt
old wreck before I went homo nnd I
was determined to do it nnd I did It.
That's all," suid MJss Calloway yester
day.
Ethel, the 11 year old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. A. Paleveda died at 7
o'clock yesterday evening nt their resi
dence In Vlnevllle. Death resulted from
tetanua enused by the child’s having
Injured her foot In stepping on a null
about two week ago.
The wound healed when It wns first
made nnd the parents thought that
there would be no further trouble, but
two days ago Inflamatlon sot In nnd
lockjaw developed within a short
while. Tho physician was unable to
relive the severe attack and yesterdny
the child died. She was the oldest
daughter of Mr. nnd Mrs. Paleveda.
The funeral services will be conduct

3:30 o'clock. Father McDonnell
will conduct the services.
ATLANTA. Ga., Aug. 29.—Mrs.
Frank Reynolds, wife of the late Dr.
Frank Reynolds of Marietta, learned
for the first time yesterday of the
killing of her husband In nn automo
bile accident some weeks ago, In which
Mrs. Reynolds received serious In*
juries for which she Is now being
treated at St. Joseph's Inllrmery In
Atlanta. Although Informed of her
husband's death, it Is quite doubtful
If she fully understood what was said ’ woods
nt. the time as her mind seems to he ‘
effected. When told of her husband's
death she seemed to pay little atten
tion to what was being said, nnd never
asked for any details. Her physicians
think there Is a clot of blond on her
brain, and are of the opinion that an
operation Will have to be performed
ns soon os tho patient recovers her
strpngth sufficiently for this to bu numb*
done.
