The Hague, July 12.—Tedlna dellberatlou
of all matters submitted to the peace con
ference has become ao much an order of
program that tb» delegate* have abandoned
nil effort to secure quick action. Till* fiuug
policy resulted yesterday in tue usual re
ferring to eummlttcea of the linvnt prize

ropositlons.
Ultimately Joseph II. Choate moved the

Regarding denting mines, Grent Itritnlu,
which originally favored the abolition of
mines, now agrees to the Italian and Jap-
npeso modifications permitting the use of
mines which become Innocuous after a

The Joke la going nround that whatever

pan. Russia culled the hist conference and
afterward she was fighting with rite .liman-
esc. The United States through President

SCHOOL COMMISSIONER
CHOSEN FOR PAULDING.
Special to The Georgian.
Dallas, Go., July 12.—The examina
tion for applicants for county school
commissioner of Paulding county was
held at the school houao last week,
conducted by Professor H. H. Ezzard.
There were five applicants, as follows:
Steve Turner, H. H. Kemp, H. C. Scog.
gins, W. G. Grogan and Lewis Pearson.
The board met and elected Steve Tur
ner. who, In point of service, Is ons of
the oldest teachers In the county. Col
onel R. E. L. Whitworth, the retiring
commissioner, has been untiring In his
work for the betterment of the schools.
Senator J. W. Taylor, representing!
the "Thirty-sixth district, has the dis
tinction of being the oldest member of
the board of trustees of the Georgia
8chool for the Deaf.
He was appointed by Governor
Northen and has served continuously
sines. Senator Taylor hoa never missed
a meeting of the board, and as he Is
usually named on the board of visitors,
has always discharged that obligation.
He has the old-fashioned Idea that a
duty Imposed Is a duty to be faithfully
discharged.
His Interest In the School for the
Deaf Is a very genuine and sincere one.
Senator Taylor Is rather a stickler for
the proprieties, too.' The other day he
noticed that tt\p senate committee was
headed "Academy for the Deaf and
Dumb.” He Immediately arose and
asked that it be changed to its correct
name—The School for the Deaf.
“Georgia has 309 deaf boys and girls
knocking at our doors tor admittance,"
he said recently. “And I can conceive
of no higher duty than that we should
provide accommodations and facilities
for educating every such unfortunate.”
A bill to give this Institution $50,000
has been Introduced In the house by
the Floyd representatives. This appro
priation is for Increased dormitory fa.
cHItles and needed repairs.
Wednesday Secretary of State Phil
Cook began supplying the legislature
with mineral water under a resolution
passed by that body. Wednesday was
frightfully hot and the big ten-gallon
carboys disappeared rapidly. Wednes
day afternoon for four hours the hall
was packed with people to hear the dls-
cueston on the temperance bill. When
a count of the empty carboys was com
pleted Wednesday night it was found
that the thirsty law-makers, prohibi
tionists and antis, had absorbed exactly
155 gallons of mineral water In the one
day.
Flow From Artoslan Woll.
Special to The Georgian.
Broxton. Ga.. July 12.—A flow obtained
for Broxton’s first artesian well reached
100 gallons per minute and the water
is first-class. A committee of citi
zens of this city will meet the lost of
this week to consult with Engineer J.
B. McCrary, of Atlanta, with regard
to putting In a system ot waterworks
In this city.
Split Yachts-~$1.50
And these are really remarkable values at
I the price—good smooth, fine straw-correct shapes
•all-silk bands—best leather sweatbands.
You can see them ill the window; come in
side and get fitted.
New Hosiery
Fine lisle half hose in black,
trown, tan and other good
shades—25c pair, 6 for $1.40;
12 for $2.75.
New Neckwear
Great line of new silk four-
in-hands at 50 cents—smartest
patterns to choose from—wide
variety.
More than one poll In the senate
chamber Is shy on hirsute adornment,
but to Senator E. P. Dobbs, of Marietta,
belongs the glory of the only caput
unadorned by even a single hair. His
finely shaped head gleams a shining
beacon In the second row to the right of
and facing the president’s stand. It Is
polished, smooth, offering a tantalis
ing surface to lu**e the fancy of the
foraging fly. But for all that, it Is a
mighty well-poised head, crowded with
good gray matter and set firmly upon a
sturdy pair of shoulders.
Governor Smith rides to and from
the cap!to! dally In a light single bug
gy. driven by a colored groomsman. He
will probably provide himself with an
official carriage and team later. When
Governor Terrell retired he sold his
victoria and handsome bays to
wealthy Jacksonville (Fla.) man.
In advancing his reasons for making
the prohibition law effective In 1909,
instead of 1908, Senator Brock, of the
Forty-fourth district, said:
"In every political ambition I have
had for years 1 have been fought bit
terly by a man who has recently built a
splendid distillery In the district which
I represent. He has fought me with all
the power In him. But I would not
seek revenge by confiscating his prop
erty without giving him an opportunity
to meet conditions (he best he might, i
don't fight that way."
The belief Is growiug in legislntlve linlls
that. Instead of sn lucreast In the pension
and school funds. It will become necessary
to reduce both.
Just at this time the general assembly
SENATOR J. W. TAYLOR.
He is the oldest member of the
trustees of the Georgia School for
the Deaf.
It Is understood that a movement Is under
way In ttie legislature to reiuovo disabili
ties for military service In the state from
former Captain Robert M. flitch. It will be
remembered that growing out ot the States-
Hitch was tried by courtmnrtlal and fc
Uen re-«*nterlng the state service. This
lug was approved by Governor Terrell. Ills
friends will now seek to have the disabili
ties removed by legislative euactraent.
It comes from authoritative sources that
Solicitor-General W. II. Rnnls of the Romo
circuit will have two strong opponents
the Held against him next year. One .
these will lie John W, Bale, a well known
and rising attorney of LsFnyette, In Walker
county. Mr. Bale Is a former resident of
Home, and hns ninny friends In Floyd
county. Hollcltor Ennis' other opponent will
be former City Judge George A. U. Harris,
of Home.
In the prevlons race Solicitor Ennis was
- — Solicitor Euuls hns made on excellent
record, nml his friends say be will ho
mighty hard man to defeat.
William n. Slndo, president of the Nn
ttounl Bank of Columbus, Is incensed o'
what he calls unfair treatment accorded
him Thursday by the senate committee on
temperance. Mr. Slade soys ho attended the
hearing from 9 o’clock until 10:80 o’clock
when ho went to the Terminal Station tc
meet the balance of the Columbus dclcga
tlon opposed to the prohibition bill.
Ho says ho returned ot uoon, asked for _
few minutes' lienrlug and was denied, Ben-
ntor llnrdman stutlug that the hcurlng was

When the time arrived for Columbus tc
Ikj heard Chairman Knight of the commit
tee called several times for those opposed
to the bill, and at th*?re was no response
John T. h letcher was heard In favor of
the bill. It had been agreed that the hear
