Special to-The Georgian.
Valdosta, Ga., Nov, 2.—The session
of the Valdosta Baptist Association,
which has just closed at Lake Park,
was by far the best meeting the asso
ciation has had since Its formation.
The representation from the various
churches was very satisfactory, and
large auma were raised for the various
church purposes. Nearly $2,400 was
pledged for association purposes, and
It Is expected that the First Baptist
church of this city will add to that
amount at least 21,000. A subscription
was taken for the Baptist school a
Mllltown, amounting to 2450.
Reports for the past year showed col
lections to the amount of 22.000 for
state and assoctatlonal missions, and
for home and foreign fields a much
larger amount.
By a unanimous vote the members
of the association pledged themselves
to do all In their power to enforce tb*
prohibition law recently enacted by
the Georgia legislature.
According to Information that has
Just come to light, a sensational Inci
dent occurred a few days ago at the
home of Mrs. Hattie Barnett, 26 Luckle
street, the well-known woman detect
ive, when Cecelia Clark, a New York
chorus girl. Is alleged to have entered
the house and attempted to shoot Mrs.
Barnett, who, with a display of nerve,
thwarted the attempt, slapped the face
of the actress, and shoved her out of
the house.
Mrs. Barnett reported the matter to
the police and asked for the arrest of
the chorus girl, but so far no case has
been made. It Is understood Miss
Clark has left the city.
Mrs. Barnett, when seen by a Geor-
glan reporter, though reticent, admit
ted the affair had occurred. Miss Clark
was formerly a member of the cho
rus In the "Rogers Brothers In Ire
land" musical comedy company, and a
short time ago was bound over by Re
corder Broyles on the charge of va
grancy. According to Mrs. Barnett,
the chorus girl thought the female
sleuth was responsible for her arrest
and this caused the trouble.
After the chorus girl was released
from the Tower on an order from Judge
Calhoun, of the city court, she is said
to Jiave gone to the home of Mrs. Bar
nett In 'Luckle street and to have en
tered the house without knocking on
the door. She approached Mrs, Bfir-
nett and accused her of working up
the case of vagrancy. Mrs. Barnett
says the girl started to pull a pistol
from the bosom of her dress. The de
tective, suspicious of her visitor and
alert, quickly selxcd the weapon, she
says, and then violently slapped the
face of the actress, Incidentally break
ing to bits a pair of nose glasses.
Following this rapid-fire action, the
nervy female detective seized the cho
rus girl, pushed her out of the hallway
to the porch, and slammed the door In
her face. Mrs. Barnett then went to
the telephone and notified the police.
"I suspected that something was
wrong when the woman entered my
house without knocking," said the de
tective, "and I kept my eye on her.
When she made a movement I saw
the revolver and lost no time In pro
tecting myself. She thought I had
caused her arrest, and I am satisfied
would have shot me had not I seized
her arm. After preventing her from
drawing her pistol, I slapped her face
good and then shoved her out of the
house.”
Miss Clark had been In Atlanta about
three weeks at the time of her arrest,
She was taken Into custody by detect
ives In a boarding house near the bust,
ness district, and was held by Judge
Broyles for vagrancy. Before going
on the stage, she said, she worked for
nine years as a telephone girl In New
York city.

GETTING THE CRAVAT INTO THE
COLLAR.
What Collar Buttons
to Use.*
Hrre'e a piece of Information worth the
price of e dozen collars to any man. To
properly tie a cravat In n fold nr torn down
collar, tin* cravat should be placed In the
collar—Just far enough up to allow the cm-
vat to allow below, tbe collar liend. The
cravat will then easily slip Into plnce with
very little pulling. Placing the crnvst far
up Into the fold of the collar la like putting
It Into a vise—making It Impossible for the
cravat to wild.*.
For the above Information we are In-
Reports from the West to the con
trary notwithstanding, there are no In
dications at present that the price of
meat will be reduced in Atlanta.
At least, the representatives In At
lanta of the big packing houses say
they have received no notice to cut the
price of meat. In fact, some of them
are Inclined to believe there will be a
slight Increase.
News was received In Atlanta a short
time ago Urn the Omaha packing
houses had reduced the prices of meats
10 per cent, and It was said that a
still greater reduction wan contem
plated. A ong with these reports came
a statement said to come from Edward
E. Cudany, head of the Cudahy packing
concern, to the effect that Ills compa
ny had been buying cheaper, and for
that reason meat should be sold cheap
er. He was further quoted to the ef
fect that ns there had been reductions
In other lines, it was time the price of
meat should be lower.
Alt this, however, was news to the
local representatives of the meat trust.
None of them had received advices
that the price of meat would be low
ered and all were of the belief that the
market was on the name basis as here
tofore. One representative gave It as
his opinion that. If anything, there
would be a slight Increase.
So If other folks get cheaper meat,
the Indications are that Atlanta people
will have to continue digging deep In
their pockets for clearing house certitl.

rail In eluding arrest. Both negroes
were confined In the prison stockade
at Vinegar Bend. During the night
a crowd visited the prison, and forc
ing an entrance, took the negroes out
and hanged them to telegraph poles
alongside the tracks of the Mobile and
