"If I hM my way," said a man yes
terday, "J would make a law to have
Individual drinking cup* wherever a
crowd drinks. Every man. woman and
child should be compelled to carry a
cup, and as they are made collapsible,
they could be easily carried In the
pocket. Take the water cooler In a
passenger car. You drink out of a
glass that everybody, consumptives
and atl, drink out of. and you put your
lips right down on the rim that other
Ups, no matter how diseased, have
Just presxed. Look at the school* chil
dren drinking out of the same dipper
with all sorts of children! Even in
the communion service, all lips press
the same cup. Not long ago I saw
persons I knew to be consumptives alp
from the same cup that was passed
around the entire congregation. How
are we to get rid of the great white
plague u long as all drink from the
same dipper, or the same glass, or the
same cup? If we go to a hotel and
ait down to a table to eat, and the
waiter should bring us a glass that
had been Just used, by some one else,
we rise up and smite him; but we go
to communion and we sip from thst
same cup with hundreds. We go Into
a school where there are hundreds of
children, and wo see them all drink
ing out of the same dipper"
"All thst you say Is true, too true."
said another man. "hut there Is an
other cause of disease that Is Just .aa

spreads as It does. **■—*
holding tuberculosis
convent long and passing a lot of
wheresses and resolutions, and all that
sort of thing, but It atrlkes me that
If there Is any one thing in this world
to scatter diseases broadcast worse
than the promiscuous drinking out of
public glasses and cups and dippers,
It Is the dust that la allowed to blow
and fill our lungs. Just take any street
In Macon (or in any city for Jhat
matter) and take notice of the num
ber of people who pass on It. to say
nothing of the animals. Now, seventy-
five per cent of men chew tobacco, and
If they chey they must surely spit.
They spit on the street, not necessar
ily on the sidewalks, but on tha street
any how. Tha wheels of the vehi
cles grind that spittle or snuta Into
the fine dust, and the wind blows the
dust right Into your nostrils, or your
mouth, and right Into your lungs.
Then, outside of the tobacco chewers.
look at the diseased men and women
who spit on the street. We spend
lots of money sending delegates to
these boards of health and health con
ventions and congresses and In other
ways to talk and resolute; wo spend
thousand of dollars for doctors' bills
and for medicine, nnd I believe If we
could gather all this up and heap It
In n pile we would have enough to
pave every street In Macon. We
would then reduce the dust area to a
minimum, and If It didn't savo our
lives It would surely aave the lives of
many of those to come after us. And
if your law Is passed and enforced to
prevent tho Indiscriminate drinking out
of common drinking vessels, we would
he the healthiest race of people on
tho earth. Just think about that,
when you have time."

PAPER THIEF ABROAD
YESTERDAY MORN!
AND THERE WERE SUBSCRIBERS
MAD ENOUGH TO SWEAR—
AND SWEAR LOUD.
The paper thief was abroad In the
city yesterday. Down on Second
street a number of Telegraph subscrib
ers were made mad when they went
out In the early morning to get their
paper to llnd that It was not there.
At first there was a possibility that
the carrier was late. Then aa time
wore on there was a possibility that
the carrier had thrown tha paper In
such a way as to !oa* It among the
roe# bushes sad the shrubbery. A
diligent search failed to reveal its hid
ing place, and then came back the
thought that the carrier was late. But
this was dispelled by the sight of the
man serosa the street reading his pa
per with evident satisfaction.
It la strange how much one misses
the visits of the paper. The coek
may fall to put In appearance to cook
breakfast, and If she does the good
wife will get up and manage to scuf
fle around and get up something to
eat. ami the Joke goes merrily-about
the wife having to cook breakfast; but
If the paper falls to tum up. there
are but two things to do—to buy one
from the newsboys or go down town
and get one from tha office, but either
of these means delay.
In* some states the punishment for
horse stealing is hinging. There I* a
five dollar fine for dropping a banana
peeling on the sidewalk. These pun
ishments are mttd compared with the
stealing of a morning paper from a
doorstep, especially on a Sunday morn
ing. when aa a general thing one hat
more time than on any other day in
which to read the paper.

OranU
BLACK PATTI.
The Black Patti show has made A
ashlngton. Boston. Philadelphia and
Baltlmor*. Tho smart set In these so
cial centers were completely captivat
ed by recant performance* by these
merry troubadours who are now on
their twelfth American tour, and It
has given them the stamp of fashion.
The swell specialties, whirlwind sen
sational dances, Weber and Gieldonian
ebony tinted choristers, comic charac
ters and sweet-voiced soloists, so com
pletely fascinated society that Its
leaders have ordained that the cor
rect thing for the theater la a Black
Patti Troubadours* young peopl«’i
matinee, or a Black Patti Trouba
dours' evening b*<x party. This edict
has been so extensively promulgated
that even the high society white folks
south of the Mason and Dixon lines
are almost a* cordial In their greet
Inga for their troubadours as those of
the north. In the southland the trou
badours seem to give more pleasure
and create more enthusiasm among Its
patrons, especially when singing south
ern refrains.
The troubadours will appear at the
Grand today for matinee and night.
“THE GREAT DIVIDE.**
"The Great Divide," which will be
•een in this city st the Grand Opera
House tomorrow night. Is both a ro
mantic and a problem play. It has
proved one of the greatest successes
the New York stare has known, hav
ing taxed the seating capacity of the
Princess and paly's theaters and Acad
emy of Music, for nearly two seasons.
Previous bookings that could not be
cancelled compelled Henry-Miller and
hla company to leave New York at
the aenlth of their popularity^ or it
would no doubt have become a perma
nent attraction In the metropolis.
“THE THIEF.'
"Tha Thief," which Charles Froh-
man will bring to the Grand on Wed
nesday, November 4. Is a fine example
of the 4>eat In dramatic art—a’ p ay
that conveys an Idea to the apccta
tor not through any bald treatmen: of
a set thesis, but through the emo
tions. In ingenuity of plot, cumula
tive Interest of development and log!
cal denouement, It ranks with the half
dogen or se masterplces of the mod
ern theater. Its author, Henri Bern
stein, haa lu this his most sensational
yet finished production, displayed
power of observation, a freshness and
directness of expression, a knowledge
of humanity and a skilfulness in reach
ing and arousing the emotions that
fully Justify the distinction that his
play has earned for him as the fo.v-
most dramatic composer of the pres
ent day. “The Thief is unique In
many way*, hut In none more so than
in tne breadth of Its appeal. Ifhas
been translated from the French into
English. Russian, German, Swedlah
and Spanish and in all these different
tongues has been a source of absorb
Ing Interest to all classes. The story
of "The Thief 1s as follows:
The Voyslns. husband and wife, are
visiting M. and Madame La garde* at
their country home. The Lagardes
have a son, Fernand, who is smitten
with Madame Voysln. and writes her
the most-.ardent love letters. Madame
Voyaln. who is young and charming,
and who loves her husband with an
unswerving devotion, treats the young
man's amatory attitude tightly, as a
sort of romantlo flutter that will soon
pass away. Sho is good natured and
humored towards him, but hla atten
tions have made no Impression upon
her other than they are the outbrenk
of * silly sentimentality on his part.
Ho writes her love letters which he
R laces under the pillow of the bed in
or boudoir and leaves them around
In other places where he knows she
will And them. 1 This letter writing
leads him Into serious difficulty,
upon which he has not at all reckoned.
For Madame Lagardes has had some
money ntoleh from her bureau drawer,
and aa a detective named Zambault,
who la in the house masquerading as
friend of M. Lagardes, hasHmam
Fernand quietly slipping up the stairs
to the bed room and has also seen
him take something from the drawer
In question, he openly accuses him of
being the thlef.'s It Is known that
Fernand haa had an affair with
pretty Actress to whom he has made
presents, and It looks as If he has
stolen the money to meet the financial
requirements In this Hason. The La-
gardes are astonished at the revela
tion. They refuse to believe the de-
teotlve. He unfolds bit by bit. how
ever, his evidence and the father Is
at last convinced. He sends for his
son. Fernand has gone into the
grounds to recover the letters hr wrote
Madame Voyaln. she having told him
where he would And them, unopened
and unread. Madame Voysln volun
teers to go after Fernand, when the
father demands his presence. She
return* in a moment with him. To
the amasement of everybody hut the
detectlT*. Fernand confesses his guilt.
Hla father, furloua at the young man's
disgrace, decides to send him away
for a period to a distant country, where
he can earn and repay this stolen
money. Of course, Fernand le not the
thief. The dlseprery of the real cul
prit and the boy's exculpation comes
Inter on. Meanwhile the preparations
for Fernand's departure proceed.
Madame Voysln'a hlce kindly talk. In
which »he told him how futile hla pas
sion for her was. as she loved her
husband too dearly to care for any
body else, hks not had the effect of
quenching or In any way subduing hla
lov# for her. The relations between
husband and wife become painfully
•trained, and continue to until the
moment set for Pernand'a departure.
Here disclosures are made that put
an astonishing but satisfactory com
plexion upon all tho circumstances,
and the dramatist Is permitted to carry
hi* story to a happy conclusion. The
cast of 'Th» Thler* Include* such fa
vorite players aa Charles Dalton. Her
bert Kelcey and Effte Shannon. These
will be seen In the three great prin

WIRELE88 MESSAGES TO FLASH J
THE NEWS TO INTERESTED
PASSENGERS.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.—From a pole
that Is to go up on the roof of tho
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel the news'of the
election will be flashed through the air
by wireless Tuesday night to ships on
the Atlantic and Pacific that are with
in one thousand miles of land.
The steamships of twenty-two lines
on tho Atlantic and of eight on the
Pacific will get the result* almost as
quick as will the crowds In front of
the bulletin boards In New York. Far
out over the dark waters of the ocean,
the Gulf of Mexico and the Great
Lakes the messages will go flying fn
every direction.
Seated In their cabins the passen
gers on the trans-Atlantic greyhounds
and the officer* on Uncle Sam's war
ships in many distant sias will re
ceive bulletins as frequently a* those
sent out on the land telegraph lines.
The arrangement# are In charge of
F. W. Hance and M. A. Kopperi. of
the United Wireless Telegraph Com
pany.
The station on top of the Waldorf,
nineteen stories above the ground, will
use a current of 110 high tension volts
which has been transformed into a low
tension one of 25,000 volts. The mes
sages will be'transmitted to the nearest
shore stations of the wireles* and then i
shot out to sea and up and down the
coasts and thence to sea and across
the continent and out over the Pa
cific.
