Vice President P. 8. Arkwright, nt
the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic
railroad, Friday morning gave emphatic
denial to n published report to the ef
fect thnt the syndicate which owna and
operates the railroad would likely pur
chase the Southern Steel Company, of
Birmingham, Ala., which Is now In the
hands of n receiver.
Mr. Arkwright added thnt the rail
road o(Bclala were earnestly engaged
In the building of a property which
woultl be n great factor In supplying
adequate facilities and greater con
veniences to the shipping and traveling
public, nnd that they would hardly be
diverted from thla purpose to operate

STOLE FRIEND 7 S~WIFE,
HORSE AND BUGGY
Hprclol to The Georgian.
Montgomery, Ala., Dec. 13.—Because
Fred Ollmer, a young farmer, stole the
buggy and horse and wife of a neigh
bor In Covington county, he will have
to serve four years In .the penitentiary.
Gilmer was brought to Montgomery
from Andnlusla. where he was con
victed. being on hie way to the mines
to nerve out his sentence. After get
ting the wife of his neighbor to agree
to run away from him, Gilmer stole
the husband’s horse and buggy so they

CLUBS HAVE NOT
AGREED ON LOCKERS
"The Capltal^Olly C'iub will provide
lockers after January 1, and will com
ply with the; strict letter of the proht
b'tlon law. Thera haa been no meeting
of the representatives of the different
clubs In the city such as has been re
ported.”
This Is the statement of Albert How
ell, Jr., president of the Capital City
Club,
A representative of The Georgian
was unable to verify the report that
there had been such a meeting, and
that the Elks, the Standard Club, the
Transportation Club, the Turn-Yereln,
the Capital City' Club, the Atlanta
Athletic Club and the Piedmont Driv
ing Club had all agreed to provide
lockers, anti not to handle whisky In
any way, or derive any profit there
from.
The fact that representatives of sev
eral clubs would give out no statement
relative to the proposed meeting would
lead to the conclusion that there bad
been one, but It Is extremely doubtful
that all agreed on the same locker
plan.
Social clubs using lockers must pay
yearly license of $500 each to the
state.

what Clerk Fuller, of the United States

moonshine whisky and was sentenced
by Judge Newman to pay a fine and
serve three months In the Fulton coun

His sentence expired Friday nnd he
was brought before Clerk Fuller to take
an oath an to his Inability to pay his
line. Among the questions asked Gen
try were whether or not he had sold
any property during the past twelve
months. After all the questions had
been asked. Gentry took the oath and
was discharged.
Mr. Fuller torgot about the released
prisoner and was surprised to find him
return In several hours, soaked to the
skin and dripping. He had taken the
trolley to Marietta, where he was to
take a train for home. When half way
to Marietta he began thinking of the
oath he took and as he wan a trifle
deaf, he did not know nil lie had sworn
to.
“I was obM»ed to come bock," he said,
“and have you road me that again. I
am a little deaf, and I want to know
exactly what I am swearing to. I
wouldn't swear to a He for anything In
the world."
Again Mr. Fuller asked /he Question*
and when he clime to the question of
selling property. Gentry declared he
