The Atlanta Taxicab Company will

necessary for Incorporation. '
These cabs are'automobiles with
taximeter showing exactly how far a
passenger rides and what Is due' for the
ride. They will be rented for a dollar
an hour and will carry four passengers
This price will tako one passenger or
four, so that It Is possible for four
people to ride tor 25 cents an hour each
by dividing the expense.
For trip rides the price Is SO cents for
the first half mile and 10 cents for each
quarter of a mile thereafter. The taxi,
meters are connected with the front
wheels, so that there Is no chance of a
passenger paying for more distance
than he le carried by reason of the back
wheels slipping.
Mr. Levi has figures showing that the
company will pay close to 100 per cent
dividends. To ascertain exactly what
a taxicab can earn, Mr. Levi drove one
In New York and his commission of the
profits was as high as J28 a day. The
company does not Intend to bid for the
trade from the railway stations, as
there le enough without It. Those In

freely, to the extent of six glasses, and
that he went away “full." The doctor
will probably take the stand Wednes
day.
The prosecutors In the case are At
torney George Gordon, of the Anti-
Saloon League, and Officers Dorsett
and Harper, who bought the beer. Brld-
well is represented by Attorneys P.
Thomas Felder, of Anderson. Felder,
Rountree & Wilson, and Attorney Van
Astor Batehellor.
The first witness called by the state
was Officer J. D. Dorsett. He stated he
bought three .<egs of beer from the
place of Mr BrtdweU on Marletta-st.,
paying $12 for the three kegs. The
kegs, he said, were labeled "Chatta
nooga Brewing Company.”
The officer then told about bringing
the beer to the court house, where the
test was made.
"Who was present at this beer-drlnk-
Ing—this beer feast?" asked Attorney
Felder.
1 don't remember all who were
there.’ 'he replied.
'Who Issued the Invitations? Who
acted us host—master of ceremonies?
“Well, I don't know."
“Did you have any music on this
festive occasion?"
"I never heard any."
“Did It occur to you to Invite Mr.
BrldwclJ, the man who supplied the
beer?"
"I never invited anyone."
Officer W. F. Hnrper, who assisted
Mr. Dorsett In buying the beer, was
the next witness. His testimony was
substantially the same aa that of his
brother officer.
"Were you at this beer party?” asked
Mr. Felder.
"I only stayed a minute or two." said
the officer. “I might have been there,
but I didn't know when they were going
tc open it.”
“Did you Invite Mr. Brldwell to be
present at the obsequies?"
"I didn't Invite anybody."
Had 4 1-10 Per Cant Alcohol.
Dr. Claude Smith, city chemist, was
next called by the state. He said he
was present at the “beer fest," and car
ried away a quart of the fluid for
dialysis. He found it contained 4 1-10
per cent of alcohol. His opinion was
that if taken to excess It would pro
duce Intoxication.
In answer to questions from Mr. Fel
der he went into a detailed scientific
explanation of the effect of alcohol upon
the human system.
Two Pints to a Drunk.
The witness calculated that a pint of
beer with 4 1-10 per cent of alcohol
would contain 65-100 of an ounce of al
eohol. He said two pints would pro
duce Intoxication on a normal man.
In reference to Dr. Cart ledge’s con
nectlon with the beer test the witness
said:
I saw Dr. Cartledge before he drank
any beer and he appeared to be nor
mal."
"How much did you see him drink?
asked Mr. Felder.
Dr. Cartledgs's Symptoms.
T saw him drink two or three
glasses."
"Was he intoxicated?"
"Well, his face was flushed—his eyes
and face were red. He began singing
and dancing and Joking and he acted
like a man who was tipsy. He would
try to see If he could walk straight and
I saw him stumble. He would not ad
mit that he was drunk, and when he
stumbled he said he did It for fun and
denied that he was drunk. I had him
to close his eyew and try to put his
Angers together and he missed It the
first few times. I judged from that
that his nervous system had been at
tec ted.”
Dr. Smith stated his belief that

Felder. "And do you also know that
Dr. Metz, a famous chemist, has said
that beer with 6 per cent of alcohol
will not Intoxicate a normal man?"

"Well, what are you? A chemist or a

I am a chemist

The Georgia State Fair Is booming.
Exhibitors and privilege people are
clamoring for space, and Manager
Frank Weldon has found It necessary
to move his office out to the Admin
istration building at the fair ground*
Wednesday. Almost all of the space
for exhibits has been sold and loca
tions for midway shows are so few
that Manager Weldon must be on tht
ground In order to designate the re
maining plota.
The county exhibits and those of th*
Farmers' Union at the state fair this
year will be far ahead of anything at
tempted In this line In the South.
Cobb county will have a fine exhibit
and also one for the Farmers' Union.
Applications are In and space will be
allotted to the following counties:
Spalding. Habersham, Campbell, Worth,
Haralson, Wilkinson, Crisp nnd Ben

Agricultural building may keep them
out.
The biggest demand has been In the
Manufactures building, and the space
for agricultural machinery. Large ex
hibits will be made by the International
Harveater Company. John Deers Com
pany, Falrbanks-Morse Company. Foot
Engine Company, Carmichael Manufac:
turlng Company. There will be a big
exhibit of gasoline engines for farm
work, and the applications for space
are coming In so fast Manager Wel
don Is having trouble finding space.
Some Reel Races.
The races will be greater than ever.
Horses will be here from nearly every
portion of the country. Horses from
stables wintering In N^w Orleans and
many from Montreal have secured
quarters. Entries are coming from
Kentucky and the Carolines In such
numbers as to Insure thla feature one of
the most conspicuous at the fair.
Applications for space In the Live
Stock building Indicate that this exhibit
will far surpass anything seen at a
fair In this state. One exhibitor has
entered a sow weighing 1.700 pounds,
and many others with blooded breede
have been allotted pene In the big
building.

One of the novelty days at the state
fair and one that It creating talk In
view of the campaign against the con
vict lease system will be the chase by
bloodhounds. Prison officials, county
officers and sheriffs are Interested- In
this event, which will show the value
of bloodhounds In the capture of es

enough alcohol to warrant tax under
the revenue laws.
Mr. Felder examined the witness at
great length upon the effect alcohol has
upon the system; how much the aver
age man can Imbibe without being
drunk, and the signs and signals by
which a man can tell that another man
Is drunk.
Dr. Stewart Roberts, who assisted In
conducting the beer test, was the next
witness.
Dr. Cartledge’* Pulss.
He told of seeing Dr. Cartledge drink
the beer at the test and of keeping the
record of hi* pulse and temperature.
"When he began drinking," aald the
witness, "his pulse was 8$ and his tem
perature was 88 8-10; he took hls.slxih
glass at 10:55 o'clock and, at 11:30 his
pulse had dropped to 80 and his tem
perature to 98."
’’What did that mean to you?" asked
Solicitor Arnold.
it meant to me that he was Intoxi
cated.” replied the witness.
The witness slated that the six
glasses of beer drunk by Dr. Cartledge
was equal to 1 3-4 ounces of alcohol,
or 3 1-2 ounces of the best whisky.
Mr. Felder asked the witness If he
could tell by looking at a man whether
he was drunk or feigning drunkenness.
He replied that he could If he stayed
with him long enough.
Measures Off s "Nip."
Following the statement of the wit
ness that Dr. Cartledge drank about
1 3-4 per cent of pure alcohol, Mr. Fel
der handed him a drinking glass and
told him to Indicate about how much
alcohol that would be measured In the
glass. He Indicated about one-half
an Inch from th* bottom.
Th* witness was ssked how he came
to he a member of the beer-drinking
party.
"I was Invited to come down by Mr.
George Gordon and Dr. Cartledge.”
"What for?”
"Why, to watch Dr. Cartledge and
to take hi# pulse and temperature."
Did you come with any hope of re
ward?”
"I did not.”
’’It was a sort of pro bono publico
affair, then?"
■Yes, elr; that's very good."
’You doh’t know whether Dr. Cart
ledge had any of the ’O. Be Joyful,’ or
not before he made the test, do you?"
"Yes, sir; I know he had not."
"How did you know It."
"Smelt His Bresth."
•Well, I examined him. I felt his
pulse, took hie temperature, smelt his
ireath and looked at him.”
Do you think that smelling the
breath was a very good test?”
"Well, yee. elr: for my nose.”
"Have you an unusual nose, then?”
"Yes, sir: I think' I have when It
comes to detecting whisky on the
breath."
The witness then told of taking the
doctor’s temperature after each glass of
beer.
