Henry Clay was bafora ths recorder
yesterday, and the ease of disorderly con
duct against him waa dismissed as soor
as the evidence was heard.
Henry's wife solemnly averred that he
had not only tried to cut her with his
knife, but tnat he tried to break open
wife, the mother-in-law and a neighbor.
Henry waa one of tho worst men that
walk the streets unhung.
Then Henry gave tits side of the stqry.
He told of the frequent abaence* from
home of the wife, her fighting proclivi
ties and her general furslncrs. and the
mother-ln-law'a upholding her In all her
devilment Henry waa followed by.De
tect! vo Jones, who evidently thought
Henry was being Imposed on, and h~
stated that while be knew nothing o

During tho past week the repub

enriched by contributions of several
hundred thousand dollars, and James
J. Hill U the man who raised tha
money. Mr. Hill has thua taken the
pine* In the Taft campaign which “My
dear Mr. Harr!man” held In the Roose
velt campaign four years ago. For the
flrat time since tbe opening of this
year’s battle the republican national
committee feels comfortable financial
ly, and able to push the work with
vigor during th* last fortnight of the
campaign. President Roosevelt's In-
fluent was enough to get a hundred
thousand dollars from Andrew Carne
gie, and some one stirred up Mr. Hill
It was Jainss J. HIU who came tc

dark days of the flrst *Bryan-McKlnley
fight, when It looked as If the west
was going' for sliver and the notion
In danger of being plunged down to
the monetary basis of Mexico and Gua

Influence among the rich men of New
York and procured for Mr. Hanna a
considerable part of tho 26,000.000 fund
thst was used in that campaign. Now
he haa coma to tho rescuo of Mr.
Hitchcock in a similar way. Ho has
spoken the words In the right eara In
New York. #hlch have resulted In a
surprising Increase of the funds Jn the
war chest. That this accretion "was
welcome may be imagined from tha
fact that the chest was nearly empty,
that various states were appealing to
the national chairman for financial aid.
and that poor Mr. Hitchcock did not
know where the monay waa coming
from to pay his ordinary running ex
penses. let alone sending snug sums
to the fighting states.

The*-Incoming ' trains on both the
Central and Southern road* last night
brought In many of the veterans, re
turning from attendance on the re
union in Atlanta.
Some of them were bedecked with
badges and buttons, some were tired
and sleepy, and some came off the
trains as chipper aa young men, and
all seemed happy. 'All report the re
union a most enjoyable occ&sign, and
that Atlanta certainly did do the
handsome by fhem.
In addition to having a place where
those inclined could go and got some
thing to eat, coupon tickets were Is
sued and with these the old veterans
were privileged to eat where they
wanted and as much as they wanted.
This was a privilege they baa^tilY
enjoyed. Lieut. - Mosely, In speaking
of this feature, said last night that
It was one of the best arranged things
he ever aaw at a reunion. He was
particularly well pleased with Atlan
ta's way of doing, and says he la free
to confess that ln‘ viaw of other re
unions in Atlanta he did not expert
anything, but this time that he was
very, agreeably. dI*appo|h£d.
The parade yesterday* was another
pleaalng feature that the veta enjoyed.
It was well formed - and tho program
well carried out. - *
As for the attendance. It wa* re
markably good, tyhen one remembers
that death Is busy with the thin gray
line, busier now than ever because.ap
many havo, reached the three-scoro
years and ten. There ware many in
line who will not be In It’ next year,
and from this on the ranks will grow
lesa In numbers more than before.
The weather was Just the right
thing. No one suffered, no one had
cause to complain.
There are many to rejoice that Ath-
is will get the reunion next year.
The fame of the hospitality of this
little city has grown to the extant
that the mention of the fact that Ath
ens gets the reunion next year almost
causea a rebel yell to rise.
In addition to the members of Camp
Smith and Macon who returned last
