LARGEST FUN ERALS SEEN IN MACON IN MANY YEARS. i The funeral of the late Emanuel Isaac* yesterday afternoon was the most largely attended of any that has been held In Macon In many years. It was attended by all classes of peo ple, all gathered to pay the last tribute of respect to Macon's oldest citizen, one loved and honored by the people of the city. The Macon Volunteers, of which he was the oldest member, and by whom he desired to be buried, assumed full chargo of the funeral, and In the morn ing a specially detailed squad, act ing as escort, accompanied the re- •nalrfs from the residence to the ar mory, over which the flap floated at half mast. In the armory, the bier, draped with the Confederate flag of Camp Macon of United Confederate Veterans, and covered with many floral offerings, re mained in Btate until the funeral hour, guarded by the honorary guard*. Among the floral tributes was one from tho Volunteers, a large wreath of white roses and lilies, the letters M. V. monogrammed in purple Immor telles forcing the center. Another was a wreath of~illl<fs from the children of the city, to whom Mr. Isaacs was a great friend. From 11 o'clock In the morning* to 3:10 in the afternoon there were visi tors to the armory to be In the pres ence of the honored dead. At the funeral hour, the brief ser- i vices were conducted by Rev. Harry ^ Weiss, of Congregation Beth-Israel whose eulogy of the dead soldier and cltisen. was beautiful and appropriate. Tho pallbearers, taken from the Vol unteers, were Sergeant Gantt, Corporal Balkcom, Privates Chambers, Taylor, Domingos, Pohnstone.

Tho party SAVANNAH, Oct. 18.—Boxes, park ing spaces for automobiles and re served seats aggregating a tonal cost of $8,000 were sold during the first twenty-four hours the tickets were on sale Friday and Saturday for the automobile faces of Thanksgiving week. This Is unprecedented and seems to indicate that every available seat and box will be occupied during the speed events. Joslah Thaw, half brother of Harry Thaw, r nas engaged a suite of rooms for a week, including tho race days, at tho Dt Soto for himself "and one," and a friend of the family who Is here Intimates that Harry will be Che "one," provided tho -United States succeeds In getting tho asylum prls? oner out of New York. Once In Pitts burg, he will probably be freed and will then very probably make the Grand Prize race the first sporting event of his new freedom. Judge Gary, head of t'he steel trust, W. K. Vanderbilt, Jr., and a long list of New York rich men and sporting men are to be here for four or five days. They have reserved boxes at tho start and finish line of tho race course. Mr. T. T.

These drivers have never before had tho same op portunities |to pit themselves against each other. It la confidently expected by experienced automobile drivers that a speed of 112 miles an hour can bo mado on some of the stretches of tho course. Any of tho turns can bo taken at above sixty miles an hour. Somo of tho racing machines aro ex pected to make their appearance the course next week. GOLD WEATHER RE HERE TODAY j MACON 18 TO RECEIVE A SAMPLE OF THE FROSTY SPELL NOW IN EFFECT IN THE WEST- YESTERDAY A PER- *!&.„. FECT DAY. , .1. Late advices of the weather bureau foreoast a heavy touch qf the snow- ftormV and cold weather now rampant on the western prairies for Macon and vicinity, and It Is quite likely that the change In the weather will become manifest today. Even last night there were Indications of an early dissipa tion of the hot spell which has been prevalent In this section of tho country for the last week. A drop of at least thirty-live degrees In tue temperature, down to well-night freezing point Is forecasted. Not at all perturbed by the reporta from the cold-enthralled west, Macon yesterday enjoyed a perfect Indian summer day. It was autumn In all of Its glorious youth—warm caressing winds from a more southerly clime, balmy sunshine, and hazy blue skies, with no chill whatevor In tho atmos phere. Peek-a-boo waists and white skirts, somewhat rumpled but sum mery nevertheless, wero dragged forth from the top of the trunks, and low- quartor shoes for tho time resumed their former apod standing; while a fow straw hats supplanted derbies on the heads of venturesome and senti mental owners. The ice man hurried ly consulted the latest weather fore cast and. his coat thrown back to ex pose a nobby vest and hands thhist down deep In trouser pockets, assum ed tho appearance of those bloated beings who clip coupons. The coal 5*ard man rubbed his eyes and looked again at the calendar to make sure that It waa October, his Eyebrows low ering at the thought of the small num ber of orders received during the week. The new engineer in the federal'build ing comfortably seated himself In a chair and soundly slept, a smile of happy contentment o'erspreadlng his features. He had only recontly been employed to operate.the furnance and steam-heating apparatus! Deceived by the ardor of Old Sol's rays, tho bees at the fair grounds, briskly hustled out of their hive In the big oak tree and began 'a search for springtime blos soms. The shades of evening found them still on tlie go. disappointed anl buzzing their perplexity. Tho bird that pecked the ripe persimmons of an almost leafless tree chirped his satis faction, thinking with regret of tho fun missed by his relatives who had fie I Incontinently with tho first tinge of tho leaves. Even the alligators at Crump's Park sluggishly crept forth from their placo of concealment beneath tho big water-lily leave? and blinked at tho dazzling Sunshine. They -could not understand It at all, this rejuvenation of October, with the red and yellow leaves of the sweet-gum, unfailing evi dences of autumn, even then Idly float ing on tho pond’s bosom. But tho reporter understood, after he had consulted Observer Mitchell, who explained the whys and where-, fores. He said that the temperature was Just a/little high and unusual for this late In October and the weather entirely too good to continue. He then added that a severe cold spell was on Its way from tho Pacific coast and that Its advance agents would reach Macon today. It Is likely that the cold wavn will be In effect, with more or less severity, for a week. and may not lire through the night GREAT RECORDS BY NIIGHTYJYRUS COBB DEMONSTRATED HIS FLEETNESS IN EXHIBITION GAME AT CHI CAGO YESTERDAY.

II.— 1 '7 expect to be elected to the presidency," said Judge Taft, standing In the eaat room of the white house this evening facing thirty or forty newspaper men who had congre gated to meet him after he had spent the day as President Roosevelt’s guest. The answer was In response to a ques tion after a brief dlse.usaion of Mr. Taft's recent tour through the southern states, of which he had spoken as a pleasing experience. -With reference to that tour he would only say that he thought it would open the way for Im proved republican conditions in future campaigns. Judge Taft expressed a delicacy In revealing the topics which d the president had discussed, and pressed for a statement as to the president’s view of the situation he would only say that "the proaident Is not a pessimist nor am I,” he added. while not especially arranged for that purpose, the secretary found In the stop here a convenient opportunity for con versation with, the president and they spent practically the entire day In the company of each other.
