Well Dressed White Man Takes
Mrs. T. W. McArthur’s
Diamonds by Force.
Smothering her crle* with one hand,
a daring burglar, a well-dressed white
man, Wednesday morning at 3 o'clock
tore two handeome diamond rlnge from
the Angers of Mrs. T. W. McArthur, In
her home, 197 South Foroyth-st.
Mrs. McArthur fought the burglar
with all of her strength, and struggled
desperately for several moments to
•arc her gems, but was unable to cope
with the superior strength of tho brutal
burglar. A* he leaped from a window,
however, Mrs. McArthur, seising her
revolver, Ared one ehot at him, which
she lssstlsned took effect. *
The Aght between the woman and the
burglar took place In the dark and was
a most spectacular and thrilling affair.
Mrs. McArthur wa* unable to get a
good description of the marauder, fur
ther than that he la a white man and
appeared to be neatly attired.
Mrs. McArthur's hand was bruised by
the burglar In hie effort to get the rings
off, but outside of this she was unln-
Assistant Chief Jett, of the police de
portment, and captain Mayo, of the
morning watch, were quickly on the
seeps and at once began a search for
the daring Intruder. He left no clew,
however, and despite the efforts of the
police, no trace so for has been found
of him.

To meet the demands of Atlanta’s
ever-increasing transient population

o'clock Wednesday night. The Hotel
Dakota, located at North Pryor and
Houston-ats., la the city’s newest hotel
and-will be run under the direction of
Dabney Scovllle In connection with hie
string of hotels In the city. The down

popular with the traveling population.
The hotel, which, will be run on tho
European plan, Is a beautiful pressed
brick structure of four stories, Anlahed
up Inside wtlh marble and hardwood.
Tile Aoors, steam heat and an excellent
elevator service add to Its facilities.
The hotel may be enlarged later, ai
the building was so constructed as to
make possible the addition of several
stories.
This Is convention week In Atlanta, and
Wednesday In particular Is convention
day. There are four conventions In ses
sion here and as a consequence the ho
tel lobbies are crowded with visitors.
The big meeting, of course, Is the
American Federation of Labor• annual
convention at tho Auditorium, with head
quarters at the Kimball house. ,
Next In order, numerically, Is the Geor-
S s Association of Presidential Postmas-
rs, meeting In the convention hall of
"io Piedmont hotel.
At the Georgian Terrace hotel, with
to 80 delegates present. Is the semi-an

The Smile That Gave $25,000,000
A GAIN 0FS222.130.46
This Is Exclusive of the Bond
Money—Ten Months’ State
ment Is Issued.
Showing a total of $3,741,270.45, or
8543,525.46 over $3,197,744.99 of last
year year. Tax Collector Williams has
compiled a statement of the money re
ceived at his office during the Arst ten
months o 1*1911 with comparison for.tlie
same period of 1910. It Is a most inter
esting statement, showing growth In
every department of the city.
Included In his statement, however. Is
the money received for bonds. In 1910
this amounted to $820,000, and In 1911,
$1,141,295, an increase of $321,295. The
total Increase In money received is
$543,525.46. Deducting the Increase
from from bond sales. It Is seen that
the increase from natural sources is
$222,130.46.
November and December will be big
months for some of the departments,
and the Anal report on the year’s flnan-
ces will, of course, make changes In the
Agures. However, the tax office has
completed Its work of collecting, show
ing an Increase of $137,408-80, the Ag
ures for 1910 being $1,302,394.60. and
for 1911. $1,439,803.40.
When the annual budget was made
up in January an. Increase of $100,000
was anticipated and appropriated. The
tax office alone exceeds,this amount.
As the annual budget Is made up with
the revenues for the year as a basis, tha
Agures of the tax collector are most en.
couraglng. While council will appro
priate all money In sight and let many
needs go begging, tbe expectations of
next year being an exceptionally hard
year are somewhat relieved, and, tho
the demand upon the city will be unus
ually heavy, the Increase In revenues
helps greatly to meet the emergney.
The returns from the police court are
$74,995.40, an Increase of $6,745.02.
Marshal Fuller pus collected $85,-
531.90, an Increase of'$64.764.49. This Is
one of the most remarkable Items In
the statement.
City Clerk Walter Taylor has col.
lected $279,625.05, an Jnqfease of $34,
126.22. This money Is from business
licenses and shows a most healthy
growth of numerous businesses In the
city. In his department Is also vested
the duty rff collecting near-beer 11
censes, which amount to $54,450, an In
crease of $18,075.
W. D. Green, street Improvement col.
lector, has collected $248,127.06, an In
crease of $65,451.90.
The Grady hospital has received $2,

has received $4,890.03,
