LOU CASTRO WANTED BY THE MACON CLUB The New Orleans Tlmes-Democrat of recent date has the following to say of Castro, who played last soason with the Atlanta base ball team; "Count Lou Castro, the clown of the Southern League, probably regrets the day he again signed with Atlanta.after once getting his release from the Crack ers.

AFTER LAWSON Brokor on Trial Today—At tacks Lawson for Bring ing His Downfall BOSTON. Dec. «—Cardenlo F. King, the broker and newspaper publisher who waged and lost * four years' bat tle with Thomas W. Lawson and who has Just written, a sensational book attacking his enemy, will bo placed on trfcu tomorrow. King is charged with the larceny of $39,000 on thirty-one counts. King's failure, after his long battle with Lawson, ’and his subse quent dlsappaaranud. his return to Boston and his arrest on a charge of grand larceny, created a sensation In tho financial circles of the Hub. Be sides his business as a broker and promoter, King published a daily newspaper, and was for many years himself actively engaged in newspa per work. King's Book. King's book, "The Light of Four Candles." is a history of the author’s long war with Thomas W. Lawson, and It Is as sensational as Mr. King's announcement, mado when ho re turned from abroad several months ago to face the various proceedings that had been brought against him, led the public to expect. When King made an assignment, last spring, and went to Ceylon a ner vous wreck, ho was petitioned Into Involuntary bankruptcy and Indicted on thirty-one counts for alleged lar ceny. This, he claims, was all Inci dental to the Lawson campaign against him, and as those with whom he had had business dealings—except his clients—did not stand up for him while ho was sway, he does not sec, ho says, the necessity for protecting them now that he Is back and has re sumed business. Therefore, he has told his story without finding it neces sary to suppress any names. Story of Long Fight. There are fifty chapters and 61 pages In "The Light of Four Candles" nnd through them all, with the con tinuity of history and the absorbing Interest of a novel, runs the story of King's four years' fight with Lawson. It is n story of strong fighting, story of modern finance ns the gamp la played In "the street." without mercy for the weak and with no quar ter to the losers. Lawson Ib characterized, throughout the book, as "the hlgh-prlcst of Thuggee," "the groat charlatan." "the leader of the wolf-pack," "Calaphaa,” and other similar names to fit the par ticular Incident In which he roppeirs. In a chapter entitled "The Wolf-paok and Its Leader," King writes: Knows Lawson. ‘I feel that I know Thomas W. Law- son—none better. I have watched him for an aggregate of many hours, with the trained eye of tho newspaper man. accustomed to measure -men. I linve heard his voice, have seen his manner, have analyzed bis hnblt. I am compe tent to paint something of a picture of the man who possesses the distinction of having conducted the most extensive nnd successful confldonco games tho world has seen since the days of Law and the South Ses Bubble. Does Jackal Work. . "You have read of Lawaon that ho Is the most brilliant, the most able, the most resourceful, tho most energetic and the most forceful mnn that ever. In America, chose to win a fortune by preying upon others. Much of this Is true, although Justice compels tho Ion that this brilliancy and i .. o notable when it is iAWion against tho Ignorant army of speculators, are lessened and dimmed to the point of near-extlnellon when It is Lawson against tho truly big men In the fl Id of finance. Lnwson has never won t battle against the Morgans, the Rogercs the Gateses and the Ryans of the finan cial world. He has made millions from m. it Is true, but It has been by do- thefr Jackal work—by acting as •cap- |ames.

Lawson Is a successful opemtor In his own particular game—but only when he confines his energies to what his pro totypes in lesser fields of similar finance would call 'shaking down the comeons.’ ‘ There are many able hits of description the book, for Mr, King was formerly a newspaper man and wields n not loss virile pen ths - *“ Is an example: "In the country of flnnnce nre many animals that prey.

At the Grand Opera House yesterday afternoon the annual memorial vices of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks were held by Macon Lodge No. '230. These exercises sro known as the "Lodge of Borrow" and are held annually by every Elk lodge in the country to P«y a public tribute of rcspec$ to the memory of the broth ers who departed life during tho pre ceding twelve-month. The big auditorium, both parquet and balcony, was crowded to Its os pa city, and many had to stand. The large audience was all attention throughout the program, however, end were not only much impressed with what was seen and heard but equally an well entertained. Boated on the stage wer ea consid erable number of the members of Ma con lodge, tho stage Itself, being pret tily arranged with huge vases of flow ers und an attractive setting. Sus pended overhead with an elks' head bo- noatah, jvaa an Illuminated clock whoso hands pointed to tho hour of eleven. Besides these devises* wan an Illumi nated tablet upon whlc.h tho names of the fobr members who passed away during the year, were arranged with electric globes. As tho roll was sol emnly called by Secretary Wright, those names flashed u pin order, and remained lighted, during the r^mglnder of the ceremonies. The names of Ju lius Fleischer, Morris Ilnpp, C. H. Peete and C. Q. Hunt were thus shown. Following an Introductory number by the Elks" orchestra, the exercises were commenced with prayer by Rev. Rutherford EW Douglas, tho audience standing. The ritual work of the Lodge of Sorrow was then exemplified, this including the calling of the roll of the dead and tho singing of an ode by the members. The first musical number of the program was the (rendition ot tho sacred piece. "Festival Te Deum," by an octette composed of Misses Good- all, Wagner, Singleton und Mrs, C. R- Wright, Messrs. Dun woody, Orr, Ogden and McCardel. The eulogy was pronounced by Brother E. R. Hines, of Mtlledgovlllo, whose theme was that of brotherly love nnd charity, and who In ft simple, unaffected manner delivered one of tho most eloquent an^ touching addresses ever hoard In Macon bn n. similar oc casion. He paid a glowing tribute to the purposes and accomplishments of the, order of Elks nrd eulogised the deceased members In sincere, comfort ing words. Shelley's beautiful "Hark, Hark, My Soul." wus splendidly sung by ft male quartette consisting of Messrs. Boone. Orr. Ogden and McCardel, augmented with tenor obligato by Mr. W. E. Dunwoody. A solo, "The Good Hhppherd." by Miss Idel Wagner, was one df the features of the program. This num- bor was followed hy "Safe In The Fold" bv tho male quartette. The closing ceremonies were con ducted by the lodge, benediction being spoke nby Rev. ML Douglas. The exercises were presided over by Exalted Ruler »8ruc» C. Jones, of the Mncon lodge.

Greatest Georgia Surprise. The political year began with the state primary. It proved the greatest surprise In the history of Georgia politics. When the state committee met fa Atlanta early met spring, nil was quiet and aerene in the political hnrison. There wax nothing more than whispered hints of opposition. Governor Hoke Smith had announced that ho. would not bo a candidate for the I’nlted States senate against Benator A. 8. Clay, and Seaborn Wright, of Floyd, was reported as "figuring" on doing what the chief executive decided not to do. It may be remarked In paaelng that the senatorial contest was the onlv ex pected early In the year, nnd It failed to develop at all. Mr. Clay returning to the upper national house without opposition. ‘ When the state committee met here in tiie spring all was so harmonious and the political sea was so bereft of even the ■uKgertlnn of storm that the shaping of rules for the state prlmnry seemed more or less of a toke. In fact, the work was done In spiritless fashion, few of the - rnimlttees paying any attention to the icumenta thev were called on to endorse.

The council held but one ssMlon to day. Among the mattors disposed of was a request of the Antl-Haloon Le*' gue of America to InveMtlgate Its man Hgomcnt, charges having been made that the loagun Is not being (properly conducted. The council decided that It had no Jurisdiction in the matter.
