Populous District the Eleventh I*
Decreased to Next to the Smolleiit,
While the Fourth Become® the
Moat Populoui.
Atlanta. Nov. 22.—The plan of con
gressional reapportionment, as pro
posed by the sub-committee by unan
imous vote, involves the changing of
only nine counties out of the 137. These
are the counties of Dodge, Emaunel,
Laurens, Johnson. Lincoln. Berrien,
Stewart, Webster and Douglas.
Judging from the discussion heard
among members of the House yester
day the plan, while satisfactory to
some members, will meet with oppo
sition from certain quarters.
Notwithstanding this, members of
the sub-committee assert, with a strik
ing positiveness, that the plan which
they have adopted unanimously, will
go through without material opposi
tion.
The plan brings the population of
the districts closer together, but still
leaves a striking disparity in some
cases. It increases the. population of
the Fourth, as will be seen from the
figures, from the next to the smallest
to the largest district in the state, while
it relegates the Eleventh from its pres
ent position as the most populous
district in the state to the next to the
smallest district.
Following are the changes in the dis
tricts as they are proposed by the sub
committee, with present population,
and the population which the change
will give:
First —Emanuel is taken out and
nothing- added. Present population,
217,817: population of proposed district,
196,538.
Second—Berrien Is taken out and
nothing added. Present population,
226,980: population of proposed district,
207,540.
Third—Stewart and Webster are
taken out and Laurens and Dodge add
ed. Present population, 186,346: popu
lation of proposed district, 203,755.
Fourth—Stewart and Webster are
added and nothing taken out. Present
population, 185,986; population of pro
posed district. 208,460.
Fifth—Douglas is taken out and
nothing added. Present population,
211.257; population of proposed district,
202,512.
Sixth —No change is made. Popula
tion. 193,852.
Seventh —Douglas Is added and noth
ing taken out. Present population. 197,-
612: population of proposed district,
206,357.
Eighth—Lincoln is added and nothing
taken out. President population, 191,-
026; population of proposed district,
198,182.
Ninth—No change is made. Popula
tion, 196,435.
Tenth—Lincoln is taken out and
Johnson and Emanuel are added. Pres
ent population, 181,395: population of
proposed district, 206,927.
Eleventh —Johnson. Dodge and Lau
rens are taken out and Berrien is add
ed. Present population, 227,169; popu
lation of proposed district, 195.207.
The Senate and House members of
the sub-committee will submit the
foregoing rearrangement of the dis
tricts to their committees separately as
provided in the resolution, after which
a meeting of the Joint committee will
be held, probably on Monday night. If
the Joint committee can agree at that
time, the reapportionment bill will no
doubt be introduced in the House on
Tuesday.

UNIVERSITY BOYS FINED.
Tried to Faint Lucy Cobb Goats In
Midday—Four Members of Foot
ball Team Dropped.
Athens. Ga.. Nov. 22.—From a time
when the memory of man runneth not
to the contrary, it has been a custom
among the freshman at the university
to treat the famous “Lucy Cobb”
goats to a coat of paint whenever uni
versity athletes won a victory on the
gridiron or diamond. However, the
goats have, of late, been badly in need
of a smearing, and the class of 1!H)5
have been waiting in vain for Geor
gia to defeat her opponents on the
gridiron So yesterday a band of five,
armed with paint and brushes, paid
a visit to the institute—not at mid
night as they have always done—but,
In broad daylight—at midday. The
police were summoned by telephone
and succeeded In catching the culprits,
who were fined $lO each and made to
apologize to the principal at the Insti
tute. The young men all belong to
prominent families in the state, and
the affair has occasioned much com
ment here.
A serious shake up in university ath
letics has resulted from the expulsion
of several of the members of the foot
ball team. The charge against them
!s "breaking training." The students
uphold the coach of the team In his
action, though they know that the loss
of the four players will be sorely felt
in the contest with Auburn on Thanks
giving Day, for the men were a tower
of strength to the team.
The Thalians, the Dramatic Club of
the university, will shortly present
their farce, “Shylock,” for the benefit
of the Athletic Association. Promi
nent in the cast, are Mr. Neyle Col
quitt and Mr. Paul Jette. both of Sa
vannah, who interpret the lines of
Shylock and Tubal, respectively. The
Thalian performance is always one of
Interest, and Is the occasion for the
gathering of many alumni.
The alumni catalogue of the uni
versity is out. It presents & neat ap
pearance, the colors of the university
being represented on its binding. Three
thousand have been sent out by Sec
retary Hull to the friends and alumni
of the Institution throughout the state.
STRIP MAKING.
It Is in Full Sway In Thomns and
Fair Prices Are Realised.
Thomasville, Ga., Nov. 22. —Sylup-
making throughout this section is in
full swing, and fair prices are being
realized for the product. Among the
most successful producers of this ar
ticle, which is so rapidly coming into
general favor, is C. H. Eubanks, who
has a farm near this city. Mr. Eu
banks makes a very superior quality
of syrup, in fact, about as fine as can
be made, both in color, consistency and
flavor. He not only “makes up" his
own crop, but also gfiinds for many
of his neighbors.
A number of people living In the city
and raising patches of cane on their
lots, have had him make It up for
them, paying toll after the fashion of
the old corn mills, and thus getting
their domestic supply of syrup of the
finest grade. Mr. Eubanks Is pecu
liarly fortunate in having a very thor
ough going and thrifty wife who takes
a prominent and intelligent part In all
bis farming. trucking and
dairying operations, for he is interested
in all these, she doing most of the sell
ing and financiering. Mrs.Eubanks said
to the Morning News correspondent to
day: “I can sell every gallon of the
syrup we are making at 50 cents a gal
lon. lam getting orders faster than
we can fill them; In fact, I am selling
it as fast as we make tt. We are bot
tling most of it. but the buyers furnish
the bottles. Mr. Ball, the grocer, has
.hint given me an order for 500 bottles.
This pays better than cotton and, al
though we have always planted some
coton. another year we shall drop cot
ton and go more into cane than ever.
I could get 80 cents and possibly $1 a
gallon for my syrup next summer, but
we have considerable expense and
must have ready cash, so I am selling
it now at 50 cents. Lots of people,
though, are selling at 28 cents, which is
about the ruling price. We believe In
taking more pains, producing the
highest quality and getting the best
prices, as the difference in cost of
making is much more than offset by
the difference in price. Besides, Instead
Of having to hunt for buyers, the buy
ers hunt for me. and there is some
compensation in that.”

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23,1901;
SAD CASE AT COLUMBIA.
Cliurlehton Woman Driven In Shop
lifting for Sake of Her Children.
Columbia, S. C., Nov. 22. —One of the
saddest cases that the police here have
had to handle in some time has been
worrying the officers for several days.
It seems that there was no doubt that
a neatly-dressed woman, apparently
about 34 years of age, who came from
Charleston, had been guilty of shop
lifting at several dry goods houses
here. On Thursday the police depart
ment decided to send Special Officers
Thackham and Strickland to Charles
ton to arrest the woman and bring her
here. These officers did arrest the wo
man at her home in Charleston and
yesterday they brought her here, hav
ing found articles in her house, show
ing that it was she who was wanted.
She gave her name as Mrs. Julia E.
Riggs. She was neatly dressed and
showed in her manner that she was
not what conditions indicated. Soon
after her arrest she told the
officers a sad story. Mrs. Riggs'
husband is confined in the state hos
pital here. She has young children at
home, two being almost invalids. She
had been supporting herself and the
children by taking In sewing. Finally
work failed and starvation seemed to
be staring her in the face. In her des
peration she came here with a lady
friend, and while her friend was shop
ping she was seized with the idea that
she might help her children by taking
some articles from the stores visited.
When the facts became known to the
merchants yesterday they agreed not
to prosecute the unfortunate mother,
provided she could return the articles
or their equivalent. The police inter
ested themselves in her behalf and
communicated with those in Charles
ton who knew her and before evening
all the losers had been satisfied.
A HOT TIME WITH GAMBLERS.
A Georgia Southern Camp Cor Raid
ed ly Deputy Sheriff.
Valdosta, Ga., Nov. 22.—Deputy Sher
iff Barfield and a posse of five depu
ties had a hot time raiding negro gam
blers at an early hour this morning.
They went to a camp car on the Geor
gia Southern road, where a gang of
negroes were engaged in a game. The
deputies ordered the negroes to sur
render, but Instead of doing so, they
pulled their guns and a lively war en
sued for a few minutes. About a dozen
shots were fired in the dark, and,
strange to say, no one was hurt, un
less It was one of the negroes. Deputy
Barfield had a bullet pass through his
coat, but no injury was done to him.
Three of the ,negroes were arrested,
brought to the city and lodged in jail.
Three others escaped and it was
thought that one of them was badly
hurt, but is being cared for by friends.
It was understood this afternoon that
the sheriff has a clue to the balance of
the negroes, and they will be arrested
later.
Deputy Barfield and the posse had
been to Mineola to raid a gang of ne
gro gamblers there and one of these
told the deputies about the game that
was in progress in the camp car. The
negroes arrested at Mineola were Rob
ert Moore, William Smith and Jack
Williams. All of them were lodged In
jail and will be tried at this term of
the court.
In the Superior Court this morning
the case against Bunk Lloyd, charged
with assault with intent to mut dor,
was tried, and Lloyd was found not
guilty. He has been in jail for some
time, having been arrested In Florida,
where he had moved with nis family.
Lloyd is a white man, and the case
against him was based upon a beating
which he gave another white man
named Sad Adkins. Adkins was beat
en almost to death, the trouble between
them being the result of a family row.
After the case became fully known to
the people Lloyd had a good deal of
swmpathy and the acquittal to-day
was rather expected.

Has Been Around the Globe.
Gainesville, Ga., Nov. 22.—Frank
M. Bell, who was robbed In New York
yesterday by confidence men of $1,190,
is well known here, and is a brother
of the several Bell boys of this city,
all of whom are prominent citizens of
Gainesville. He left here about six
years ago. and for some time his
whereabouts were unknown. Finally
his relatives received a letter from him
from Philippine Islands, where he had
gone as a reghlar in the United States
Army. After his term of enlistment
was out he went with a railway con
struction company to Ecuador and has
since resided there. He wrote his
mother here about two weeks ago that
he was coming home for Christmas
via New York, and the Associated
Press dispatch from New York about
his being robbed was the first intima
tion his people had that he was in this
country. He is expected here to-mor
row.

harsh one by the depot filibusters who

posed its adoption. Fully an hour was
spent in discussing this resolution, and
the rest of the report of the Commit
tee on Rules. The resolution was
finally adopted, and hereafter to the
end of the session, nothing but ten
minute speeches will be allowed in the
House. The House showed that it
was averse to fixing any more special
orders, and resolutions reported fav
orably by the Committee on Ruies. fix
ing the Soldiers’ Home bill, the Bla
lock resolution to pay interest from the
public property fund, the child labor
bill and others as special orders were
promptly voted down.

resolutions was followed by a large
number of requests for unanimous con
sent to introduce bills or to have local
bills passed. All of them were refused
and motions to adjourn, made on an
average of every five minutes, were
voted down.
The bill by Senator Hardaway, pro
viding emasculation as a punishment
for attempted criminal assault, which
was passed by the Senate, was killed
by the House.
The following new bills were intro
duced in the House:
By Mr. Miller of Muscogee—To re
quire fire Insurance companies doing
business in the state of Georgia to
write Insurance through licensed

Atlanta’s Charter BUI.
The Senate this morning, after an
explanation from Senator Howell of
the Thirty-fifth, passed a substitute
fop the Atlanta charter bill, omitting
all the provisions relating to taxation

the present, and a bill providing some
additional method of taxing corporate
franchises will be passed as soon as
