ATHENS, GA., June 20.—Frank Edwards, a seventeen-year-old sopho more in Emory college, and Miss Hunt, er Barnett, who is only fifteen, decided that a fleeing automobile was the only proper solution of the parental edict which put a cloud over their love af fair. and they eloped from Oxford in the machine that the lad's father had given him only a few weeks ago The secret marriage that followed has just been divulged here, where the bride returned with no word of the ro mance or the marriage certificate. The families of both boy and girl today an nounced their forgiveness Young Edwards, who is a son of a prominent Tpccoa merchant, met Miss Barnett a year ago when he was a fieshman in the University of Georgia. They were known to take long walks together and appeared at all functions together. Neither parents nor friends dreamed that they contemplated mar riage. At the end of the last year Edwards.’ parents decided that he should not re turn to the university this year. He took it very much to heart, but when Captain J. VV. Barnett, father of the young woman and Athens' city engi neer, told her that Edwards would not return she said it made no difference to her whatever and she returned quite unperturbed to her studies in the Lucy Cobb institute. Nevertheless, she was not long in learning that young Ed wards was continuing his studies at 'Emory college, and a secret corre spondence between the two followed, in which they planned the elopement. Just before the Emory commence ment Mias Barnett suddenly went on a visit to relatives in Oxford. She met Edwards the next day and accepted his invitation to an auto ride. They told friends that they were just going for a little spin. Instead they sped to Monroe, where they obtained a marriage license and the wedding followed at the nearest minister's house. Just afterward young Mrs. Edwards appeared at her "home quite as though nothing had happened. She saiil no word of the marriage, and, since Edwards kept mum also, it would probably still remain a secret but for the fact that university students living in Monroe told of having seen the mar riage license. Then Mrs. Edwards, confessed ano her parents scolded her and forgave her. The. same situation came' to pass in the Edwards home, and then the young couple, with full parental con sent, at last entered the automobile again and hurried to Atlanta, where, as the bride expressed it, they went to purchase another auto "for us."

Vigorous war against the illegal sale of cocaine in Atlanta has been declared by the police and Recorder Broyles to rescue scores of boys, victims of the deadly drug. The first move came today in the conviction in police court of Dr. Wil liam D. Roper, proprietor of Roper’s pharmacy, at Pryor and Wall streets, against whom three young men, one of them a member of a prominent family, gave positive testimony. Judge Broyles Imposed a fine of $500.75 or 30 days on Dr. Roper on the charge of violating the city cocaine law and also, bound him over to the state courts in bond of SI,OOO. Victim Pleads for Breaking Up of Traffic. The city charge is based on evidence that the druggist sold cocaine without inclosing it In a scarlet wrapper, while the state offense consists of the selling of the drug without a physician's pre scription. In explaining his evidence against Dr. Roper, one of the victims pleaded that the traffic in cocaine be broken up. in order that others as well as himself might be saved. The police say that the "coke" habit has made startling inroads in Atlanta, not only among negroes but among young white men. Large numbers of boys, they say, are fast being ruined by the drug. t In the hope of remedying this condi tion, Police Chief Beavers has Insti tuted a searching investigation, and any druggist found selling cocaine in violation of law will be haled to police court and vigorously prosecuted. Judge Broyles declares he will back the police in this fight to the limit of his power. That he means just what he says is evidenced by the penalty meted to Druggist Roper. ' A LIBERAL OFFER.
