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.
Captain "Tip" Harrison, a member of
this camp, agrees with the general view
of the camp that the articles are unfair,
Inaccurate and should not be printed In
any Southern newspaper.

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.

NEEDED TOO MUCH COIN
Alleging cruel treatment as tha

This, ha declares In his petition,
