In ihat event Governor Smith will have tne appointing power, as he will have assumed the reins of ofllce. Inasmuch as the comptroller has In dicated his purpose to Increase heavily the returns of the railroads, it is ex pected there will be many arbitrations this year.

GETS A NEW SPRING SUIT IN EXCHANGE LOR RAGS 200 DELEGATES AT THE MEETING An unknown burglar with a penchant for style, but minus the necessary coin, did a stunt Tuesday night that has brought grief and Indignation to A. Morrison, of 220 Form wait street, well-known attache of the Ueck & Gregg Hardware Company. The burglnr got the style all right, and as a result Mr. Aforrleon. Is the loser of a handsome spring suit and hat. The marauder was not totally In considerate, however, as he changed clothes In the Morrison home and left Mr. Morrison an ofd dilapidated, fraz zled, worn-out suit of winter plothes of the vintage of *96. He also left Ills old hat, which, with the discarded clothes, looks as though It had ridden the rods for many a mile. The fact that the burglar possesses n larger foot than Mr. Morrison alone saved the latter's new spring shoes. The burglar tried his best to squeeze his feet Into the shoes, but without suc cess. and he pitched these out Into the yard, where they were found Wednes day morning.*. In addition to swapping clothes, the Intruder put on another little act that was equally as audacious. Strolling Into the dining room, he discovered luscious cantaloupe. With his mouth watering for the delicious melon. Mr. Burglar promptly . obtained a knife, sliced It, and proceeded to enjoy him self. He ate the whole of the melon and then threw’ the rinds on the floor. With this performance concluded, he made his exit, a changed man—In per sonal attire. The burglars* occurred about *10 o'clock Tuesday night while Mr. Morri son, ills family and several callers were seated on the front porch laughing and talking. The burglar entered the house through a rear window, and coolly changed clpthes In Mr. Morrison's bed room, to the tune of merry peals of laughter that came floating through the house from the gay party on the porch. The burglary was discovered when the family entered the house to retire, Mr. Morrison finding the strange hat and old clothes lying on the floor of his room. Bicycle Policeman John Peyton made an Investigation, but failed to And any trace of the marauder. I III IUI Waycross Entertaining Vis itors to Convention in Grand Stvle. Special to The Georgian.
