J-ALffitifl CfflSMNY. J<MMY. The Annual June Clearance Sale SENT TO JAIL BECAUSE HE SLEPT OUT OF DOORS A zealous disposition on the part of County Policeman Pope In the dis charge of his duty, and the lack of fa miliarity with the English language on the part of John Curboy have conspired to Involve the latter In a peck of trou ble at the hands of the law. Curboy was arrested by Pope on the charge of vagrancy. When arraigned In court he was unable to explain his situation, and after the officer-had testlAed the pris oner was sentenced to eight months Imprisonment and sent to Jail, where ho Is now conAned. This took placo on Monday of tills week. Curboy, however; Is not a vagrant, and his employers say he cun show a clean record for employment for the past three months. He Is an Italian, and for that period has worked regu larly for the Exposition Cotton mills. When ho applied for a Job some time since ho sought work as a common laborer. Ha could speak very little English, but did his work satisfac torily. Curboy's troubles had their beginning one night last week. Ho was living In a small stuffy room, and when It be came uncomfortably hot he moved out Into the open and went to sleep on the ground. The officer found him there and arrested him. He knew, or thought he knew, that the same fellow had been loaAng for several months, and ac cordingly, when Curboy was arraigned In court, the officer told tho Judge that such had been the case. The prisoner could not speak English well enough to tell where he worked and what he did, so In the absence of contrary evl dence ho was sentenced to eight months Imprisonment. After he was Carried back to jail he was found crying In his coll. He suc ceeded In explaining to the officers at the Jail that he was employed at the cotton mills and that hd had been work ing regularly. His case reached the cars of the mill people and an effort Is now being made to get him out A pardon will doubtless be asked, and Judge Calhoun has given assurance that he will do anything he can to re lease the unfortunate man.

ARTICLES ON CIVIL WAR UNFAIR, MM Atlanta Camp Condemns Se ries of Stories Published in Local Newspaper. Condemning aa Inaccurate, mislead ing and unfair tha series of articles now running daily In The Atlanta Jour nal on the Civil war, Atlanta camp No. 159, Confederate Veterans, passed res olutions at a meeting Monday nlgf)t embodying the feelings of the veterans on the subject. A paper was read by Professor B. M. Zettler, a member of the camp, In'whlch he charged that the article! were un fair and Inaccurate to the Confederate aide. Thla paper was received with enthusiasm and frequent applause. Immediately after Professor Zettler finished hie paper, a resolution wae In troduced and adapted without a dis senting voice thanking Professor Zet tler for his clear and ■ patriotic itate- ment of the caae. The resolution also recited that the history eo far In Its course had. colored everything In favor of the Union side, hod damned tha Confederate* by slight praise of cer tain ofllcera and battles. It was ex pressed as the belief of the veterans that the recital would give the children and young people of the South false Impressions of the Confederate cause.

WIGLESS WILLIE’S WOE LED HER NEAR DEATH When Willie Bentley, a 17-yeor-old negro girl, briefly described as "gin ger-cake," attended a very classy soiree given by several members of her set Tuesday night, aha clapped eyes upon Bob Hancock, a very nifty dresser, far the first time. WlIHe fell for Hancock's guile with, out ado and listened to his patter the greater part of the evening. Now Hancock was somewhat of a de. celver. Later In the evening he was reproached quite boisterously by a former flame, who described Willie as "that glnger-caks girl without any hair." Willie overheard tho conversation, and she overheard Bob rap her lack of hair In no uncertain terms. In fact, ho laughed% at her In a hearse and heartless manner. WlIHe went home in a wretched frame of mind, her dejection Increas ing as she neared the place where she resides, 411 Haynes-st. On a shelf staring her In the face as she opened the door was a bottle ef tincture of Iodine. Life with short hair wasn't. worth living, so Willie swal lowed a draught of tho drug. The Grady hospital and a stomach pump placed her out of danger. ■PI ■ 51111-Ends Chambrays 81-2e 40-Inch White Lawns 71-2c 40-Inch Sea Island So Remnants Soleaettss 15c SILK TISSUES.
