Mr. Hill, of Monroe, then spoke In favor of the amendment offered by himself and the gentleman from John son. Mr. Perry, of Hall, spoke In favor of the original bill. Mr. Slater, of Bryan, opposed the measure upon the ground that It re flected upon the Integrity of the mem bers of the house. When Mr. Slater referred to the statement that the house had beep compared to a jury, and If that were true, an officer should be appointed as a guard, there was much applause. 8pssker Calls Order. “The chair would Inform those mem bers who applauded that this Is no crossroads political meeting,” said Speaker Slaton. “Other questions will arise In the house when the same gen tlemen will claim that applause Is Influencing the house against their side of the question.* Mr. Dunbar, of Richmond, spoke In favor of his amendment and In oppo sition to the original bill. During Mr. Dunbar's speech Mr. Burwell, of Fannin, read an excerpt from the Macon platform calling for just such legislation tbe gentleman from Richmond was opposing. Following the coinage of the word "ear-wig” in the house, meaning to “speak to one In secret,” Mr. Nowell, of Walton, offered an amendment the bill, substituting the word "ear wig" In the bill for the word “speak." Mr. Boyd, of Spalding, spoke In fa- vor of Mr. Dunbar's amendment Mr. Dooly, of Heard, spoke In oppo sttlon to the bill. Mr. Butt, of Fannin, moved the pre vlous question, which was sustained. The author of the bill, Mr. Wright, was allowed twenty minutes In which to conclude the argument In favor of the bill. The time was divided be tween Mr. Hardeman, of Jefferson; Mr. Adams, of Chatham, and Mr. Wright, of Floyd. / Upon the vote for the amendment of Mr. Dunbar, Mr. Hall, of Bibb, called for the ayes and Does. The call .was sustained. The amendmdbt was defeated by a vote of 22 to 143. The bill was passed by a vote of 139 to 0.

Mrs. Armor Is known os the finest temperance speaker In the South to day. Her remarkable eloquence and striking logio have been responsible for great crowds when she lectured. Her position gives her a thorough know! edge of the entire question as great ai It Is. In many ways she will be the finest speaker to bo beard In Atlanta this year.

The city council met at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon for the purpose of further considering the report of the committee of forty-two on city ex tension. It Is hardly probable that any defi nite action will be taken, as the com mittee seems to be In a hopeless tan gle, hardly any two agreeing on the proper terms and extent of extension. Among the many resolutions that have been Introduced and will be con sidered la one by Alderman Qutlllan, providing for tho annexation of all the territory recommended, with the exception of Decatur, East Point and Kirkwood, and one by Councilman pic. the peo- Packers Fight; Prices Soaring JUNE ENROLLMENT AT BAGWELL BUSINESS COLLEGE LARGEST OF ANY SCHOOL IN ATLANTA Success of Popular Institu tion Due to Superiority of Modern Methods and Systems Em ployed. In the march of progress the old must give way to the new. Bagwell Busi ness College meets the demand of the times by adopting modern methods and systems which, without sacrificing thoroughness and efficiency, save the student one-half the time and the expense previously required to secure a business education. It,has been conclusively demonslrat- systems.

There were present almost 200 of tbe feathery tribe. Chief James E.

Many of tbe most prominent and profes sional men of the city are members of the youngest of secret orders and It Is predicted that the order will become one of the most ilnent of the country. E.

Advocates of Old 8ystems Challenged to Contest, So long as competitors fall to enter conteat with every advantage In their favor, the public will attach little lm portance to their misleading statements and deceptive comparisons. During the past Bagwell Business College has had a standing challenge to contest n three months student of the Chartler system against six months students of any old system. Deceptive Comparisons of Shorthand Notes. In the shorthand notes published a few days ago, comparing the Chnrtler and Graham systems, wo have another Illustration of the methods by which our competitor attempts to deceive the public. In order to make a favorable showing, the Graham notes were writ ten In the shortest reporting style and so highly phrased that even an expert court reporter could not write it at a rate of forty words per minute, while the Chartler was written In the longest correspondence style. Such shorthand notes are utterly useless for any prac tical purpose whatever. A Fair Comparison. Below Is given the Chartler and Gra ham notes for the same matter both written to the same scale. The Gra ham notes nre taken from "The Pho nographic World" for August, 1908. pages 177 and 178, and were written by an expert shorthand writer who la among the leading advocates of this system, so no one can say that the comparison Is not a fair one. BRUISE8 ON BODY FOUND INDICATE FOUL PLAY. Charlotte, N. C., July II.—Since the body of Charles T. Oakley, agent for the Singer Sewing Machine Company at Roxboro, N. C., was found floating In an upright position In the Lakewood Mitatorlum at Durham, N. C„ on Tues day evening, much suspicion has been aroused but so far no one has been Im plicated. On closer Investigation, bruises were found on the body which indicate foul play. It will be seen from the above that the,gain In Chartler over Graham la 68 motions, making Graham 43 per cent longer than Chartler. The following transcripts show the actual letters and words represented by the above notes. See If you can read the Graham; Chiriier Transcript.

It will be seen from the transcripts of the systems that the Chnrtler botes can be read like print, while the read ing of the Graham la simply a matter of guess work. Does it Stand to Reason that over two hundred of the biggest, best, oldest and moat conservative buil- mas colleges of America, Including tho great Boatman Colltge at Poughkeep sie. N. Y„ would adopt this system, and efter thoroughly testing If. would make the same claims that Bagwell Business College makes for tt. If these claims were not true?

Do you know of any sensible mason why you should do It? According to post records ninety out of one hundred who take up‘tho old systems of shorthand will havr-to remain In college six to twelve months or return home to suffer the chagrin of failure and disappointment.

About Blue Serge No wonder the major part of Muse’s business is the conservative in clothing. A man buys a summer suit here, and he knows that his appearance is as good as bonded until the end of summer. Take it in blue serge—you hear much about “true blue,” and “blue that don’t change color,” but how little it means unless the tailoring and the style are there to back it. The part that insures the “life.” It’s not only “true blue,” but true tailoring, too. Here’s a warning: Without confidence buy blue Serge carefully. Better still, don’t buy it at all unless you are sure of it. Blue Serge in Two Piece Suits, $15 to $35 MUSE'S 3-5-7 Whitehall, _
