0 Real Romances of Sunny Georgia 0 BOARDING SCHOOL NO BARRIERTO WOOING BY MACON’S RICHEST SON As ‘-Brother,” lennings Adams Courts Miss Gladys O'Neal. To Wed July 3. Tb = approaching union of th- * nn richest families of Macon by th° 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. to see her secretly at a select 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 clbs' relatives. Rut the determined suitor evaded this rule by registering at a Sa lem hotel as ’’Jennings O’Neal” ami by representing himself to he the brothel 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 Undoing of “Brother." Whether the Imposition practiced upon them by the sweethearts was disclosed by envious school mates, or whether thex just naturally came to the. conclusion that the weekly caller at the institution -was too assiduous in his attentions to he a brother, ht 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 her. Rut school closed for the year just about that time, and Miss O’Neal graduated with highest honors, taking several prizes for excellence in special studies. Papa O'Neal was so delighted that he promised to give his apt daughter any thing she wanted, but he hesitated when she blushingly suggested that she would like to have a husband ■'He'll come later," said the father, "and when he doe«. if he suits your fancy and is an agreeable young fel low. vou ma' have him.” Tells Sweetheart Os, Father's Promise The remark was made in th- pres ence of Mrs. O'Neal, v ho concurred in the sentiment. immediately Miss O’Neal communi rated this to her intended husband, for they had long since sworn eternal and undying love. He went tn Mother O'Neal, choosing a day wh°n Mr o N°al was out of the city attending to mat ters connected with his extensive lum ber interests irt south Georgia Mrs. O’Neal demurred, when she re covered from her amazement, and said that her husband should be consulted. ■‘Well, we’re going to marry. de clared the determined young man. "and that's all there is to it: in fad. 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 Pappr. The society editor obliged, by send ing tip a note to the foreman to send her the “copy" of the engagement The "copy” was sent down, but only after it had 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 w hen his eye was attracted by the announce ment. He gasped, and sent for bis son. congratulated him. and told 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 wmuW be In the paper. She locked her daughter In the dining room and telephoned the newspaper office, where eventually due explanations were made Her wrath was still at boiling heat when Mr. O’Neal arrived home He heard 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 afl right in the end. Consequently M 1 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 Ooleman's Hill, overlfing the busi ness portion of the city, and re sembles In its architectural features tbe design of the Atheneum ScropoH Plans for tbe wedding are fast ma turing. It will be one of tbe most elab orate that Macon bar seen in many years, and will take place at the O'Neal home on July .1. More titan 2,000 in vitations will be isstied. 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, cotton factor, wholesale met < ham and Invcsto , and has a fortune that is way above a million Mr. O’Neal made several millions -ml of deals In timber and turpentine lands in south Georgia, and Is easily the wealthiest ( itizen of Macon Miss O'Neal is being entertained lav phly by Macon society in honor of her approaching nuptials. 1 ' -JPh I W AM- W -. / -Jr > di H 1 ■ « wsiE'-r 1 Y / 111 'L r \ w - \ ~ \ ** . .. i I VI i T, .. / ■?

June That Prof. Herschel Parker, of Columbia uni versity, has reached the summit of Mt. McKinley, America's highest peak, and hitherto unsealed, and is now on his way to tell the world of his suc cess, Is the word received by Mrs. George Browne, of Tacoma, mother of Belmore Browne, Prof. Parker's com panion. in a letter today from her son. The letter, mailed April 13. said that at that time the party was on the summit and had but little difficulty, and would reach Cooks Inlet on its way out side before July 1. Browne wrote that the passes used by- the expedition were much easier than those used on previous occasions Two new glaciers had been found and would be reported when the party re turns to civilization Mount McKinley, besides being the highest mountain the United States, is associated with the name of Dr. Fred erick Cook. Cook claimed years ago that he had ascended to the top of the mountain and even brought back pho tographs, alleging that they proved his claim of being the first man who ever scaled the dangerous peak. Later, ex peditions to Mount McKinley have claimed that Cook never reached the summit of the mountain and that his alleged ascent of the mountain was a fake that paralleled his alleged discov ery of the north pole.

To enumerate the head line acts, it would he necessary to reprint the program; that statement alone showing the quality of the bill. Gur Edwards and his aggregation of stage beauties is a musical comedy show in itself. The. scenes are verj’ effective, the girls dance and sing well and look bet ter. and Edwards is at his best in his “Song Revue.’’ The act lasts forty min utes, and for once the audience remained to the last note, and then some- long enough to .give a last round of applause to Edwards, his kiddies and his pretty girls The “Song Revue” includes all the old favorites, each sung in an appropriate Retting. There are the sidewalks of New York for the song “When I Was a Kid Like You,” a scene in Florence, Italy, with flowered balconies and pretty girls, for the “Italian Romeo” song, a darkened vault for “luook Out for Jimmy Valentine.” and so on. This number alone is a good show 7 in Itself. But there are others. The bill opens with a new and striking novelty, called HILLYER’S HAT IN RING IS SOURCE OF WORRY TO TROX BANKSTON W. Trox Bankston, the West Point editor, who I* a candidate for railroad commissioner In the August primary, came into Atlanta today’ much per turbed over Judge Hillyer's determina tion to run for re-election. Bankston, like all of the other can didates for a commissionership, had taken Judge Hillyer’s statement, made months ago, to the effect that he would not be in the running, as final. Bank ston, like several others, had announced to his constituents that he was in the contest for Judge Hillyer’s seat. Now it develops that Judge Hillyer has changed his mind and will be In the race. He gave assurance of this In a statement made public Saturday, asserting that his friends over the state had Insisted that he abandon his idea of retirement. Mr. Bankston wants it distinctly un derstood that he really believed Judge Hillyer was not to run when he sent letters over the state announcing him self as a candidate for the place. He had no idea, he told The Georgian to day, that Judge Hillyer would an nounce. LOAN AGENT ACCUSED OF THREATENING MAN’S JOB Asserting that P. P. Jackson, a loan agent, has sought, by threatening his job with the Southern railroad, to col lect $79 for a loan of $26. Bud Favors, a switchman, has obtained a temporary order Pom Judge Pendleton restrain ing th- Southern railroad from paying his w ?ges to Jackson. Faves told the court that he already had paid Jackson $28'60 for the $26 borrowed. Jackson, he asserted, threat ened tn appear at the offices of the Southern with a fake assignment of hfs wages. CENTRAL TO ISSUE BONDS. SAVANNAH. GA., June 25. When the stockholders of the Central of Geor gia railway meet here July 8 a plan will be submitted to them authorizing a huge issue of five per cent refunding bonds, from which a considerable sum will be spent In improvements, and a portion held In reserve for refunding purposes. "In Laperche Equipoise." by Delmore and Oneida, which puts the audience in an eager attitude for more right at the start Then comes Carlin and Penn. In a humorous comedy diversion, called “Get ting a Divorce.” Following the clever German comedians are the Four Solis brothers, novelty musicians. The act Is far above the best of its kind ever seen here. The selections are classic and pop ular, and the mirambaphone, r.ew musi cal instrument, Invented by one. of the brothers, has a beautiful sound, and re sponds to the magic touch of the four fine musicians in splendid style This is an especially fine number on the program. A characteristic May Tully playlet comes next, admirably acted by Lida Mc- Millian and company, following which Jar row. tbe talkative Juggler, has lots of fun with his audience, and In the meantime does some clever stunts. Jarrow is very much out of the ordinary, and his act Is a big hit. Gus Edwards himself and his company close the bill, with their forty-minute act. The Forsyth does itself proud this week and so long as a bill of this quality la presented Atlantans will not have to go to New York for tip-top vaudeville. NOVELIST EDWARDS’ “WOODHAVEN GOAT” IN REALITY HIS COW MACON, GA., June 25.—Harry Still well Edwards, postmaster of Macon, and Southern novelist of considerable prominence, doesn’t tell anything In his most graphic fiction that beats the truth of what happened to him. In his well-known story, "The Woodha ven Goat," Mr. Edwards delineated a goat butting over a beehive. Yesterday Mr. Edwards' fine Jersey cow, while tethered to a tree in his yard, did exactly the same thing. The bees got after the cow with a sting in every one of them and Edwards was forced to go to the aid of his milk producer to cut the rope that prevented her es cape from the fiery Insects. He cut the rope and the cow ran off, where upon the bees promptly transferred their attack to Mr. Edwards. He rvas stung so badly that he is In bed today and his Jersey cow is somewhere threshing through the swamps wit half a hive of bees still clinging to her NEGLECT "OF PRIVATE PRECIPITATES TRIAL OF MAJ. WOODBERRY SAVANNAH, GA„ June 25.—Certain reports made to the surgeon general of the United States relative to a case that was under treatment at th* post hospital at Fort Screven are the foun dation for the proceedings which have be»n brought against Major Woodber ry, chief surgeon, which will be heard at the general courtmartial ordered to convene Thursday.
