VISITING AMERICA
New York, Ang. 5,—Senator R. KI. Jack-

convinced that the tfitljr hope of the Ameri-

parents were among the first to go from
America to Africa. They were once slaves
and emigrated from New Orleans to Monro
via.
•*I see no hope for the negro In America, ’
he said. "I agree with Bishop Turner that
all who have the means should seek a honi*>
fu Liberia. If I saw him comblulng with
the white* la baslneoi and being treated
w!»h Impartiality I would say nothing, but
he is to lie found In no Urge enterprise to

DEATH - IIS CLAIMED
POPULAR YOUNG MAN
Death came to Robert Bruce, son of
A. C. Bruce, the architect, Sunday
morning at 1 o'clock in Norpross, where
he had gone for rest and recreation.'
The body was brought to Atlanta
Sunday afternoon and carried to the
home of the parents, 327 North Boule
vard. The funeral will be held from
the home Monday afternoon at 4
o’clock, with members of the Atlanta
Rifles as pallbearers. Interment will
be In Oakland.
Few young men were better known
or more generally liked In Atlanta than
Bob Bruce. Though afflicted from
childhood with an Incurable spinal af
fection, he was always cheery and pop
ular with everyone. Though he has
been in ill health for a long while, his
death came unexpectedly. He had gone
to Norcross to rest, and wag seemingly
in better health than usual.
His wide acquaintance and great per
sonal popularity was honest tribute to
his genial disposition and cheerlncss
under great personal affliction. For
several years he lived In Washington,
where he was employed by the South
ern railway. For the past year or so he
was employed In the comptroller gen
eral’s office at the capital, where he
enjoyed the friendship, not onty of cap
ital officials but prominent men from
all over the state.

HOME FOR FEEBLE-MINDED
SORELY NEEDED 51 STATE
No bill now pending in the Georgia leg
islature is so fraught with humanity, mo Im
portant to the welfare of hundreds of chil
dren In Georfa, as the llardmnn measure
to, establish a home for epileptic and fee
ble-minded children.
It means that hundreds of children In
the stdte, suffering from epileptic troubles
or “stunted mental development, will be
taken under the care of specialists and by
treatment and proper training developed
Into good and useful dtisens. Upder exist
ing conditions, tho only way such a child
can be cared for is to commit a crime and
Ik* committml to one of the state institu
tion *, where no special care Is or can be
given them.
This measure hns tbe hearty indorsement
of the Associated Charities of Atlanta; in
fact, that organisation baa Instituted a vig
orous campaign to secure the passage of the
bill nt this sesstun.
i Tbe bill provides for tbe acquiring of a
root) tract of land, either by purchase or
R ift, upon which substantial buildings shall
e erected. There are to l»e five trustee*,
one to be a physician and one a teacher.
Segregation of ttfo race* l« to be provided
for.
Under certain condition*, adults may be
admitted to the Institution. While prl*
martly an eleemosynary Institution, patient*
who are able will be required to pay for
treatment.
This measure has the backing of some
of the best known and most prominent
people in the jtute.
