FOR VICE BOARD
City Council Sidetracks Peti
tion and Plans to Ignore
Their Request.
The appeal of the Women'! Christian
Temperance union that five women he
added to the Atlanta vice commission
has been sidetracked by the city coun
cil. It is in a pigeonhole, where it will
probably remain, unless the women
bring unusual influence to hear 'on
members of Atlanta's ruling body.
Council yesterday afternoon referred
the petition to the police committee.
The appeal of the women war read by
the city clerk. No member made a
comment. None gave any reason why
it should not he granted. There was
merelv a motion that it be referred, and
this was quickly adopted. Council
Seemed relieved.
The opinion was freely expressed by
members that the peti’ion would never
be taken from its pigeonhole and
brought up for action, unless some un
expected champion of the women come?
to the front.
Signers of the petition said they be
lieved that the future of the unfortu
nate women coming under the superTi
ltion of the vice commission would be
more safely guarded if members of their
(<ox, with sympathy and an understand
ing. had a voice in the deliberations of
the commission. No member of the
newly created board has openly shown
any opposition to having the aid of
women In the work.
The vice commission was appointed
by Mayor Winn several weeks ago, aft
er a long delay. It has not yet reported
any definite steps toward dealing with
the evils it is designed .to abate.

FINE BILL AT FORSYTH
DRAWS USUAL BIG CROWDS
Some call It science, says Pauline, and
some call it a fake But whatever you
call It, that's just what It is.
Pauline is the feature at the Forsvth
this week and he is billed as the "world’s
famous and Hypnotic marvel." He
may be and'he may not be. ft's just how
you happen tn look at it But neverthe
less he made a hit with the. audience
which racked the Forsyth last night, and
did some seemingly marvelous stunts.
His subjects, recruited from the au
dience. did many peculiar things while
under the hypnotla spell of Pauline while
the exhibition he gave with a snhfect he
carries with him made Pauline solid with
his audience and seemed to banish skep
ticism.
Sharing honors with Pauline were the
Exposition Four, who are always favorites
and who always have something new.
Their r inging, playing and dancing made
up a show of their own and their re
markably quick change of costumes
caused the audience to marvel.
Another act which made a hit was that
Os Dane Claudius and Lillian Scarlet,
who presented a musical melange entitled
"The call of the Sixties."
Others on the bill which were pleasing
were the Swain and Ostman Trio, Dave
Ferguson. Jennings and Nelson, and
Fleurette. The latter presented her ’
"Visions d’Art." which consisted of va- i
rlous poses in the spotlight Most of thia
art consists of Fleurette’s shape.

Harper in a knife duel last Friday, will
be given a preliminary hearing before
Justice J. B. Ridley on Monday, May 20.
He Is charged wtth manslaughter.
His bond was fixed at SSOO by Justice

fair at the police station. He said that
the knife he used on Harrier was his
own. and that Harper used another,
weapon.
"Harper and Marie Donto began a
game of matching." said Potts “I had
nothing to do with the game. Harper
lost several times, and he suggested
that he match the girl. He lost and
tried to get out of paying by saying
that the girl was matching him. I de
cided in favor of the girl, and he cut
m* with his knife."
Potts said that Harper would have
killed him had hq not grabbed the hand
in which he held the knife and forced
him into the hall. Both slipped on the
waxed ball room floor, and w hile Har
per was on top Potts said he got out
his own knife and began cutting
“I acted In defense of my own life al!
the way through," Potts said.
