HOTEL LOBBIES
BUZZING WITH
LIWMAKEBS
Legislators Intend to" Get Right
. Down to Business,” Despite
Baltimore “Circus.”
The sleepiest bell hop in the Kimball
house lobby had to wake up today and
chase iec water and other things up and
down the stairs. The chairs were all
filled and the lobby began to look like
another convention was about to break
loose. It was the annual dav-before
the-legislature crowd, coining in to
boost pet bills, get things lined up for
putting something over or putting
something eise in the pigeonhole, pick
ing out a boarding house or landing a
small job left vacant since last session.
The assembly begins tomorrow —to last
50 days, not including Sundays, holi
days or dies non, which means a day
which "doesn’t count."
The report that the legislature would
convene, call the roll and adjourn over
until next week on account of the Bal
timore convention is discredited by of
ficials of the two houses and those
early arrivals who came prepared to
start business.
"There are not half a dozen legisla
tors in Baltimore, anyway, even in
cluding .1. Randolph Anderson." said
one of the house officers. “There’s no
reason why we should adjourn. We
all admit that Baltimore has a three
ring circus compared to our sideshow,
but we’re going to keep open all the
week if we don’t take in a cent, as the
country storekeeper remarked the day
everybody left for the footwashing. We
likely will pass some dozen bills before
Baltimore turns out."
Speaker Holder Is Here.
Speaker John N. Holder is here and
likely to stick right at bis desk, in spije
of the fact that he’s running for con
gress from his home district and would
like to be tn the fray. But it would
make pretty good argument to say the
speaker had deserted his post to run for
office, and John Holder is wise. Be
sides, he can see most of the big guns
in his district right here, for they'll all
be coming to Atlanta during the legis
lature.
Beyond the prospect of a fight over
the Tippins ants-near-beer bill, sched
. tiled for the first place on the calendar
and likely to come up for passage soon
in the session, there isn’t much excite
ment ahead. There are no officers to
f elect, for the president of the senate,
the speaker of the, house and all other
officials were elected last year and hold
over through this summer. There may
be a few vacancies to be filled on ac
count of deaths or resignations, and a
few new members to be sworn in for
the same cause. There will be the
usual Hood of new bills on the first dav.
ranging from an act to amend an act
regulating a foot bridge across Goose
creek to an act to prohibit running trol
ley cars on Sundays. But all the mem
bers have been seasoned by a year’s
experience and fewer “freak” bills are
expected than are the rule at first ses
sions.
Capital Bill Still Sleeps.
Nearly every big question brought up
last year lias been left over for consid
eration at this session, but they are not
arousing the enthusiasm which followed
their introduction. Bibb county still has
Its bill to move the capital from Atlan
ta to Macon, and the selection of a new
site for the governor’s mansion and the
sale of the old property still is pend-
< Ing. There are several bills providing
new ; counties, which means more coun
ty seats and more county jobs.
Among the bills on the calendar since
last, session are:
To increase the membership of the
bouse of representatives; to increase
the number of members of the senate’
to change the arrangement of senato
rial districts, making each of the big
counties a single district; to make the
county unit plan a part of the primary
law; to tax automobiles upon their
horsepower: to provide a ten-day gov

lature In February of every second
year; to require railroads to honor
mileage books on trains; to provide

date of the assembly's meeting: to
regulate the houYs of labor and to reg

As “Brother,” Jennings Adams
Courts Miss Gladys O’Neal.
To Wed July 3.
The approaching union of the two
richest families of Macon by the mar
riage of Miss Gladys O’Neal, daughter
of B. P. O’Neal, to Jennings Adams,
son of B. T. Adams, will be the sequel
of a romantic boarding school court
ship.
It was by Mr. Adams frequent visits
to Winston-Salem. N. C. to see her
secretly at a sclecl girls college that
Miss O'Neal was wooed and won
The school regulations prohibited the
young women from receiving the com
pany of boys and men other than close
relatives. But the determined suitor
evaded this rule by registering at a Sa
lem hotel as "Jennings O’Neai" and by
representing himself to be the brother
of one of the school’s brightest attend
ants
So regular were his visits to Win
ston-Salem and so persistent his at
tentions to Miss O'Neal that the col
lege officials came to the conclusion
that he was a most exceptionally de
voted brother.
Then Came the
Awakening of O'Neal.
Whether the imposition practiced
upon them by the sweethearts was
disclosed by envious school mates, or
whether they ’just naturally came to
the conclusion that the weekly caller
at the institution was too assiduous
In his attentions to be a b 1 other.’is not
known.
However, there was an investiga
tion, resulting in the disclosure that
Miss O’Neal did not have a "big broth
er." so she was punished by having to
do extra lessons and Mr. Adams was
barred from seeing he’. But school
closed for the year just about that
time, and Miss O'Neal graduated with
highest honot s. taking several prizes
for excellence in special studies.
Papa O’Neai was so delighted that he
promised to give his apt daughter any
thing she wanted, but he hesitated
when site blushingly suggested that she
would like to have a husband.
“He’ll c.ome later," said the father,
"and when he does if he suits your
fancy and Is an ag eeable young fel
low. you may have him."
Tells Sweetheart
Os Father’s Promise.
The rematk was made in the pres
ence of Mrs. O’Neal, "ho concurred in
tlie sentiment.
Immediately Miss O'Neal communi
cated this to her Intended husband, for
| they had long since sworn eternal and
undying love. He went to Mother
O’Neal, choosing a day when Mw O'Neal
was out of the city attending to mat
ins connected with his extensive lum
ber Interests In south Geo’gda.
Mrs. O’Neal demurred when she re
covered from her amazement, and said
that her husband should be consulted.
"Well, we’re going Io marry." de
clared the determined young man. “and
that’s all there Is to it; in fact, we are
going to announce our engagement this
afternoon.”
"No you don’t." admonished the pros
pective mother-in-law. but son-in-law
to-be heeded her not, and rushed down
to the office of The Macon News, where
he gave a formal engagement notice to
Miss Winchester, the society editor,
signing Mr. and Mrs. B. P. O’Neal’s
name to it. ♦
About the time that the engagement
reached the hands of a printer Mrs.
O'Neal called up, and demanded that
the notice be disregarded and kept out
of the paper.
But the Announcement .
Appeared in the Paper.
The society editor obliged, by send
ing up a note to the foreman to send
her the "copy" of the engagement. The
“copy" was sent down, but only after it
lia'd been put in type.
As the foreman, not altogether un
derstanding the purport of the request
for the "copy.” thought that the notice
was intended for publication, he, in
consideration of the prominence of the
parties, put it at the top of the society
page. And thus it appeared in print
that afternoon.
Mr. Adams was casually reading his
afternoon paper in the library when Ids
eye was attracted by the announce
ment. He gasped, and sent for his son,
congratulated him, and iold him to
draw on him for enough to cover the
expense of a European tour for a
honeymoon.
Mrs. O’Neal read the notice in almost
as casual a manner, not suspecting that
it would be tn the paper. She locked
her daughter In the dining room and
telephoned the newspaper office, wheie
eventually due explanations were made
Her wrath was still at boiling heat
when Mr. O'Neal arrived home. He
Irnard the whole story, sympathized
with the young sweetheart, and said
that while the affair was somewhat
premature and hasty, everything was
satisfactory and would be all right in
the end.
Consequently. Mr. Adams and Miss
O’Neal sat side by side on the immense
front porch of the palatial O'Neal resi
dence that night; and this residence,
by the way, Is the most sumptuous In
Macon. It is located on the crest of
Coleman’s Hill, overlilng the busi
ness portion of the city, and re
sembles in Its architectural features
the design of the Atheneum Acropolis.
Plans for the w r edding a.re fast ma
turing. It will be one of the most elab
orate that Macon has seen in many
years, and will take place at the O'Neal
iiome on July 3. More than 2,000 in
vitations will be issued.
Mr. Jennings Adams was recently set
up in the wholesale grocery business
and is looked upon as a coming busi
ness man of Macon. His father is a
banker, cptton factor, wholesale mer
chant and Investor, and has a fortune
that is way above a million. Mr. O’Neal
made several millions out of deals*in
timber and turpentine lands In south
Georgia, and Is easily the wealthiest
citizen of Macon

Rain Washes Streets, Saving
City Lot of Work—Down
pour Causes Damage,
Atlanta’s face is washed and she is
all ready for the legislature or what
ever company may happen to call. The
streets are cleaner today than they
have been, in several weeks, and the
sanitary department didn't have to
work overtime, either. It was just
rain.
But such a rain! It began early yes
terday afternoon and for a while it
looked as though the sky had turned
upside down. Trolley cars were stop
ped by lightning., which burned out
circuits, and delayed by rivers of rain
water across the streets. Terraces and
lawns were washed away in several
sections of the city, and thousands of
dollars worth of new earthwork van
ished like a lump of sugar in a cup of
tea. Shoppers caught uptown hud
dled in doorways and waited impa
tiently for the cars to start, while some
unfortunates without umbrellas dashed
through the downpour.
The total rainfall of the afternoon
and night was about 2 inches, far from
being a record for the 24 hours. The
worst damage was found in DeKalb
avenue, between Spruce street and Del
ta place, Inman Park. Water over
flowed in several homes there and resi
dents took to the upper floors or fled
to higher grofind. An automobile, de
serted in the street, was covered with
water higher than its wheels.
Williams street, near Pine, was flood
ed two inches above the doorsteps, and
several women had to be helped from
their homes. Several washouts, dan
gerous to passers-by, were guarded all
night by the police. -

CHIEFSOFG. 0. P. FEAR
NOMINATION OFCLARK;
HOPE DEMOCRATS ERR
By JUSTIN McGRATH.
BALTIMORE, MD„ June 25.—1 tis
interesting and important that the
perspective of the Baltimore situation,
taken by the most astute politicians In
charge of the Taft and Roosevelt
forces in Chicago, is not In the least
bit altered by the Information ob
tained here from leaders who will be
th.- chief figures in the convention
which opened today.
The Republican leaders in Chicago
had their minds filled with the grave
political condition which confronted
them. But absorbed as they were by
the political drama in which they were
playing a prominent part, whenever the
tension was in the slightest degree re
laxed they evinced an interest in the
outcome of the Baltimore convention.
They realized that their own politi
cal fate was bound up almost as much
in the decisions with respect to can
didates and the platform which the
Democrats will make here, as it was
in the result of their own convention
labors. Freely they confessed that
they, saw only two chances of Re
publican success in the approaching
campaign—both of them admittedly
slight
Thought Taft Might Retire.
The fijst chance which they consid
ered was the possibility that they
might be able to persuade President
Taft that, having accomplished the de
feat of Roosevelt, he should retire from
the race of his own volition and aid
them in persuading Justice Hughes to
accept the nomination. They appeared
to have a strong belief that with
Hughes as the candidate they would be
able to win.
vVith Taft a® the nominee most of
them looked for a’Roosevelt bolt, and
conceded defeat, unless the Democrats
should make a stupendous blunder In
the selection of their candidate. This
was their second chance, and they at
tached more importance to It than they
believe that there was any strong like
lihood that President Taft would be
able to see the situation in the light
in which they intended to present it to
him. and because they were inclined
to .think that the number of aspirants
Democratic nomination would
lefifl to such rivalry as to create a
jtorm of ill feeling, which would end
in party havoc.
The one great overshadowing fear
in the minds of the Republican leaders
was of Democratic harmony. As they
sized up the Baltimore situation, the
chances of Democratic dissension were
more than even. In fact, they figured
it out that the only Democratic can
didate to whose nomination all ele
ments of the party could be com
pletely reconciled was Champ Clark.
Clark Could Unite Leaders.
Mr. Hearst having ardently advo
cated the candidacy of Speaker Clark
and Mr. Bryan having stated that
Mr. Clark would be entirely acceptable
to him. the selection of Mr. Clark
would bind the two most conspicuous
Democratic leaders to the enthusiastic
support of the convention's selection.
Moreover. Clark being a progressive.
He would fall heir politically to a
great deal of the independent pro
gressive force which is now such a
potent political factor in the politics
of the country.
Deep down in their innermost hearts
the most cherished hope of the Re
publican leaders in Chicago was that
the Democratic convention would
nominate a reactionary. With a re
actionary at the bead of the Demo
cratic ticket and with Roosevelt out
as an independent candidate the Taft
leaders thought that Mr. Taft would
have a very good chance to win.
Their expectation, or at least their
hope, was that If the Democrats
should select a reactionary* to head
the ticket there might be a bolt of the
progressive element of the Democratic
party or such a feeling of resentment
on the part of this element as would
detract from Democratic solidarity.
Even the Roosevelt leaders calcu
lated upon the possibility of a Situa
tion of this kind arising, and If It
should arise they have plans to con
solidate as far as possible the pro
gressive element In both parties in

Wilson as Colonel’s Mate.
If such a situation shall come about,
it can be stated on reliable authority
that the Roosevelt forces will make
overtures to Woodrow Wilson tq take
second place on the Roosevelt ticket.
This is interesting as indicating the
Rooseveltlan view of Wilson’s Democ
racy. Roosevelt, of course, is thorough
ly familiar with Professor Wilson’s
. writings and knows that up to the time
. the New Jersey governor got a chance ®
I to capture the Democratic presidential
nomination he was a firm believer in
the political principles advocated by
’ Alexander Hamilton.
■ Another strong objection to Governor
Wilson’s candidacy which is being
• heard here on all sides, and seems to
carry considerable weight with the
leaders who will exercise a great (if
not a determining) Influence in the
convention, is that Governor Wilson, if
■ he should be nominated and elected, in.
i stead of strengthening the Democratic
i party in the various states where It will
have much at stake during the next
four years, in all probability would
; weaken it by acting upon independent
counsel more than upon sound Demo
cratic advice.
Governor Wilson Is recognized to be
a somewhat uncertain political quanti
ty. He is likely to fly off In a political
tangent any moment, and for reasons
which Democratic leaders would think
i highly inadvisable from a party stand-
I point. They are fearful that he will be
, a disrupter rather than a harmonfaer.
I Map Shows Clark Strength.
1 On the other hand, they point to the
. splendid and unexampled work of
Speaker Clark in bringing order out of
> party chaos in the house of representa
[ tlves. While an independent man al
, ways where principle is concerned,
, Speaker Clark, they say, Is a reliable
, Democrat. VVith him lu the office of
president, they believe that the Demo
. cratic organization in some of the great
Northern states, whose vote is so nec
, essary for Democratic success, will be
strengthened by wise appointments
, which will commend themselves to the
I people, as well as be pleasing to the
. party rank and file, rather than weak-
I ened by the selection of men who will
have no interest in the party organiza-
I tion, and may prove Inefficient admin
istrators.
There is on exhibition at all the ho
tels here a map of the United States
’ which shows in colors the strength of
* each of the respective candidates for
' the Democratic nomination. The states
which have declared for Speaker Clark
—most of them in primary elections—
are shown in red.
"Why not make it all red?" is the
suggestion in big black type across the
top of the map. It would not take very
much red paint to do that.
THE LAX FOS WAY.
. If you had a medicine that would
L strengthen the liver, the stomach, the
■ kidneys and the bowels and at the same
. time make you strong with a systemic
tonic, don’t you believe you would soon
! be well?
That’s "The Lax-Fos Way.”

When everything goes
wrong and the future look*
black, instead of moping
around go right to your
