ing that he woa to go into the tvholo
question, which Included an examination of
the pumpn; that such Investigation should
ho completed before a satisfactory and true
report could ho mnde. Mr. Maury has ad
mitted that ha believes the centrifugal punm
will sliperacdo the reciprocal pump for inch
service, aud rot he baa declined to examine
the pumps Mr. Hurt has Invited him to sec.
"The object In appointing n snlccominlt-
teo of threo to exnmloe the pumps Is lu
lino with the original Instruction* of tho

NO GHEAT HUGH
FOH REGISTRATION
Although the voters of Fulton coun
ty are not falling over each other In
the effort to get to the registration
hooka In the office of Tax Collector
Stewart, the Indications are that when
the books are colsed on Saturday, July
27, about the usual number will have
registered.
Mr. Stewart stated Thursday that
the registration, while not so large as
It was last year, Is about otfia par with
the registration In 1905.
"This seems to be an off year,” said
Mr. Stewart, "but whlio the number of
those who have registered Is Dot no
ticeably large, I am of the opinion that
when tho books are cloaed the usual
number of voters will have registered.
There Is yet one week from next Sat
urday In which to register, and It is
very probable that the list will be
greatly swelled next week.”

this report Is considered to be one of
his usual maneuvers to enlist the sym
pathy of his people.

ATLANTA'S ELK HERD
Philadelphia, July 18.—Never was
there such a parade In Philadelphia or
any other city as that which took place
today In thla cltg.
Elks, 25,000 of them, and then many
thousands more, for counting was Im
possible, swung along the line of march
for hours. Elks dignified. Elks jolly,
Elks shouting, dancing, leaping, acting,
singing followed the bands through a
human-walled canyon.
The people from the South received
a welcome that made their heartB glad.
There was nothing lacking In the en
thuslasm with which they were greet
ed. Atlanta, Ga., made a fine showing,
the members being literally covered
with badges. The Atlanta itdople are
great badge collectors, and should have
enough emblems' of the Philadelphia
convention to decorate their clubs when
they return home.
The Philadelphia lodge had 1,500 men
In line, all dressed In neat blue suits,
white shirts and white shoes. Of
course the reception they received was
a wonderful one, and they deserved It.
Then followed New York city, with 500
men wearing red and blue uniforms and
carrying purple megaphones.
