"27” Bill.
Talk about a cinch. Her* Is i
who had a real cinch.
It was a case of easy money with
James Chiles every time he posted a
bet that he could flip a coin In the air
and turn talle at every flip. Jamea la
not a magician, but he knew what he
wo* talking about, and he always won.
He couldn't lose.
But Jamee' smooth little game came
to grief when he won $1.25 from James
Hamilton, another negro. He bet Ham
ilton that he could flip a quarter flv#
time* and turn talle every time. Ham
ilton Just knew this couldn't be done,
and hie money wee up In a Jiffy- Chile*
flipped a quarter In the air live times
and he won.
This angered Hamilton and he made
a grab for the coin. To hie astonish
ment he dt,covered that the coin con
tained no heed at all. It had been spe
cially prepared to win. Hamilton then
eelied Chile, and held-him until the
arrival of Call Officer Fain. Chile,
later put up 115.75 and wo* released,
falling to show up In police court Tues
day morning.

held'Tuesday morning. At 12 o’clock
the members were called to order and
eight minutes afterward the house ad
journed.
Before adjournment Mr. Holder, of
Jackson, asked that the members of
the penitentiary committee meet Tues
day afternoon at 5 o'clock. During the
morning before the house convened and
after adjournment, many member*
spent thetr time in the senate observ
ing how the “twenty-eeven" substitute
went thru In steam-roller fashion.
Both faction. In the house were rep- 1
resented among the,* spectators. Some
were elated at the action of the senate
and believed that the house would take
up the bill and pasa It, In this manner
ending an extraordinary session which
has proved expensive, and eo far profit
less, to the people of Georgia.
Others there were who looked on un
Interested and who said It would avail
the senate little for the' reason tbat the
house would turn down the bill In
eteam-roller fashion equal to.that em
ployed by the senate In passing It.
- The house will convene again at I
o'clock and It U probable that a mes
sage will Immediately be received from
the senate announcing the pastage of
the "twenty-seVen" substitute.

•Wlfey. dear, we’ll Ju»t have to sat
isfy ourselves with quail on toast for
breakfast hereafter. Bacon, pork and
beef are Juat elmply too expensive. My
pocket-book can't stand It."
If the doleful prediction* of local
butchers end packer* end the gloomy
forecasts of The Georgian', correspond
ent 'at Chicago are realised In Atlanta.
Jocal husbands will be, delivering Just
such ultimatums to-their wives before
many week* have passed.'
For be It said that for soaring the
price of. bacon, beef and pork has the
beet of the airships ecreamlng for help.
Breakfast bacon la retailing over the
counter at local butchering emporiums
at from 25 to 30 cents a pound, and
porterhouse steak Is selling only at 26
cent*.
Dry salt bacon has run up from 12 1-2
to 16 cent* a pound, round steak hoe
climbed from 12 1-2 to 16 cents, al
most In the twinkling of tn eye. and
beef loins have reached the' lofty pin
node of 20 cents, almost without i
struggle.
"And they continue to go up." com
plained a local butcher, “and, I expect,
will continue for some time. The pack
ers charge ue more. We have to charge
consumers more."
The packers were seen by a repre
sentative of The Georgian.
“We can’t helo It, one of them said.

heavy. Cere are acorce. Thar, all

CHICAGO, 8ept. 15—For the first
time In year* cattle and hog* sold yes

yards, and It le the highest price In a
decade. Seven cents and a half a pound
was paid by the packer* for the pork..
Cattle of the beet grade sold from 7 1-2
to 3 cents a pound. This means high
meet prices for the next six months, at
least, and perhaps for a year. Scarcity
of hogs and eattle and the high price of
com are given os the cause*. The farm
ers are getting 30 cents a bushel for
corn, end It doe* not pay to feed It.
Bacon I* now selling at retail her* for
