FRANK GOULD AND WIFE, „ „ „
The former Edyth Kelly, an actress, whoso entry into tho Gould family
by lha marriapo two years ago has caused disruptions between tho Gould
brothers that has resulted in the present flght botween them for control of
tho 8t. Louio Southwestern roilrond. 'Edwin Gould has managed the rood
for years, but Frank fs now bonding every energy to secure enough proxies
to gain control of it during tho coming election of the road. The tiattlo ba-
tween the brothara, It is said, has caused a depreciation of the valuo of the
holding, to scarcely half of what they ware worth Un years ago.
United States District Judge W. T.
Newman announced Friday the ap
pointment of O. C. Fuller, clerk of the
United States circuit court, to be clerk
of the district court, vice W. Colquitt
Carter, who retires Saturday to enter
the real estate business.
Mr. Fuller will be sworn In Satur
day afternoon by Judge Newman. A
signed order will alto be entered re
appointing .tho deputy clerks, Jon D.
Steward Fred Beers and R. T. Fuller.
Mr. Fuller will hold both tho offices
of United States circuit and district
clerks at a salary of $7,000 per year
until January 1, when the consollda-
n of the two ofTIces Into that of the
district clerk occurs, at a salary of
$0,000 per annum. He will execute a
bond of $90,000. "
It la believed that on January 1 an
additional deputy will be appointed as
necessary for the work of the office.
Mr. Fuller has been In the govern
ment service for 29 years, and In point
of actual official experience Is the third
oldest circuit clerk In the United States.
His record, as attested by official ex
aminations, has been most exemplary.
On Monday Judge W. T. Newman
will celebrate tho twenty-fifth anni
versary of his first chsrge as a Federal
Judge to a grand Jury, having originally
performed this In October, 1880, tho he
was appointed by President Cleveland
In August preceding. It will nlso be
tho ntty-nrst term of court he has
opened.
Judge Newman said that moonshln-
g had decreased greatly In Georgia
since he first ascended the bench. In
those early days there were as many as
1,400 mirtt distilling cases a year In
north Georgia. Last year there were
only 708 cases.
The first two weeks of the October
term will be given over to the trial of
some 200 of these cases. At Athens In
i November about 100 such cases will ba
tried.

NEW CHARTER CONVENTION
IS SUGGESTED BY SUTTLER
From Bernard Buttler, one of the
eanteat opponent* of th<* compromlae
charter In the recent election, cornea a
aunreatlon that a charter convention,
composed of many citizen®, hold fre
quent meeting* until they have drafted
- - J - —— charter which
Sow that the battle 1® over*and we
can again dlacusa matters calmly, 1
have a suggestion to offer that I think
Is for the public good. Atlanta 1* a
growing and progressive city. We
want for Atlanta everything that le
and approved a new charter which warn ror auuus everyuung mm $•
■hall be as nearly perfect as possible, | good. if 0 ur present charter is In need
and that this be submitted to the fceo
pie. Mr. guttler’s suggestion came in
the form of the following letter:
Editor The Georgian:
The recent charter election, while re
sulting In defeat for the supporters of
the hybrid charter, f® not necessarily
to be understood as an Indorsement of
all our present governmental methods.
I do not question, however, that It
was a hearty Indorsement of the char
acter of our present much-maligned
officials.

of Improvement, we want that Improve
ment. I would* suggest, therefore,
charter convention composed of five
delegates from each ward, to meet at
the city hall two event
from 7:20 to'lO o'cloc"
to be selected In ward meetings and to
receive no pay; every line of the old
charter to be scanned, to be discussed,
to be amended, to be rewritten, to be
eliminated If n*ed be; everything to
come before the full body and to be
trashed out In the open; no committees
to he appointed.
It would probably take three months,
but would result In a document which
would meet with the approval of the
city council, of the voters and of th*
general assembly, because such a char
ter would necessarily be fair to every
Interest.
It would stand SO years. Bring to
gether 50 good citizens Intent ubon giv
ing to Atlanta th, best possible gov
ernment, and we need not fear, the re-
SUlL
I fear committees—1 fear closed
doors—but I do not fear a convention 1
of representative Atlanta citizens.
The fact Chat ouch a convention Is
extra-judicial, that It would have no
legal standing, need not deter any
body. Its findings would be approved
and validated by the people.

HUNGRY BOYS STOLE
JUST THINGS TO EAT
order to get something to
hungry."
Thte was the explanation made Friday
morning by two boys, MUton Sykas, 18
yean of eg*, halting from Missouri, and
Will Batty, 11 yean old, of Chattanooga,
when thay frankly confeaaed to Reoorder
Broyles that they committed two burgla
ries. Thursday night.
And their assertion that they stole t«
aatlafy hunger would seem to be borne
out uy the nature of their booty. This
consisted or two baskets. Ailed with
crackers, canned goods and other edibles
-tdcnlc-llke basket..
These things were taken from tbs store
but was cs._,
placed In the aute patrol,
turned to Patrol Guard Cason ar
marked;
"It I was as big as you, rd knock you
out of thla thing and whip you until you
couldn't stand up.”
An old pistol was found on Sykes.
Both boy. were bound over to the stats
courts on the charge of burglary. In de
fault af 11.000 Ikind each, they were re-
mended to the Tower.
Tho boys were shabbily dressed, thalr
hair waa unkempt, and both bora the ap
pearance of real hoboes.
