AFFECTS GEORGIA
Nomination of New Jersey Man
Means Smith Faction Will
Renew Activities.
It is being accepted generally by poli
ticians well Informed in Georgia affairs
that either Thomas W. Hardwick, of
Washington, or Thomas S. Felder, of
Bibb certainly will be a candidate for
the governorship against Joe Hill Hall
end John M. Slaton.
As a matter of fact, the hitch in the
Felder announcement Is due, more than
anything else, to the not quite clear at
titude of Hardwick, and a desire by
frfends of both Felder and Hardwick
that there be no cross firing between
them.
Hardwick and Felder both will not
run. They would draw largely from the
same faction in Georgia, and render the
election of Mr, Slaton a practical cer
tainty, so the wise ones say. The an
nouncement of neither will be made
positively until there Is an understand
ing among mutual friends as to which
should make the race this time.
H Is quite well understood that the
nomination of Woodrow Wilson for the
presidency has Infused new life in the
fimtton that will get behind Hardwick
or Felder, as the case may be, in the
governorship fight.
Smithites Get "New Life."
The so-called Hoke Smith faction in
Georgia did Its best to carry the state
in the late presidential primary for
Wilson, and failed. Senator Smith
came down from Washington and took
the stump for Wilson, and Hardwick
did the same thing. For a time, fol
lowing the primary, the feathers of
the Smith faction fell, but now that its
msn has won the Mg Baltimore plum, it
once more Is feeling full of fight and
ready to dispute with Its ancient ene
mies again.
Ts Wilson is elected, and Georgians
generally believe he will be, be|ng loyal
Democrats and all that, it is accepted
as a foregone conclusion that Senator
Smith will be the power in the white
hours, so far as Georgia Is concerned.
If the Smith faction should make a
fight no>w fbr the control of state poli
tics and lose, there yet would be the
white house of the presidential patron
age and friendship to fall back upon.
That’s the way a lot of Smithites are
“doping it out" to themselves nowadays,
astyway.
Georgfans have a heartier and health
ier appetite for politics than a..y other
pecpie in the Union, It seems, and thej
mrelv let a new situation grow cold
before they have looked it over exhaus
tively and speculated upon Its possibili
ties. Already they have coupled up the
Wilson nomination with state politics,
and the smswer they get is a candidate
ftw the governorship, to be backed to a
finished by the Smith faction.
And that candidate will be either
Felder or Hardwick, so the speculation
runs. The next day or so will tell.

Here sleep the remains of one who
dared to tell the people that they were
wrong when he believed so. and who
never intentionally deceived a friend or
betrayed even an enemy.

This inscription is graven into the north
side of the monument:

“Throughout life a sufferer in body,

emplar of wisdom, courage and forti
tude and patient and unwearying
charity. In the decrepitude of age,

work of his office and it seemed fit
that, having survived parents, broth

One of the main points of interest to the
visitni’s at the celebration today was the
“tramp room’ at Liberty hall and men
who had been friends of Mr. Stephens re
lated the story’ of that famous compart
ment The.y recalled how Mr. Stephens'
great heart never permitted him to turn
away’ from his door any one who came to
him for aid. and in consequence this
“tramp room” In his home has probably
sheltered more beggars than any other
private apartment in the country. Such a
tramp was Mr. Stephens’ guest at Übertv
hall when George M. Pullman sent his
private car to Crawfordville to take Mr
Stephens to Atlanta for his Inauguration
as governor. In company with Mr Steph

Friends of Dr. Robert S. MacArthur are

New York to induce him to return to his
old charge.
Dr. MacArthur now is in the North and

with the avowed intent of pressing the in

church here with the determination not

many innovations be has in mind. They
say that ambition will keep him in Atlanta

Denies Rumor of Trouble.
Dispatches from New York deciare that
Dr MacArthur has told hi-s friends there
that he may not return to Atlanta, though
his present plans call for his return to
the Tabernacle here after he shall have
finished his preaching engagements at the
Tremont temple in Boston during July
and August. From then until April he is
scheduled to re-enter upon his pastorate
of the Tabernacle here, leaving Atlanta
for a trip to St. Petersburg for the dedica

month. While away he will preside over
the European section of the alliance which
meets in Stockholm, Sweden.
In New York Dr. MacArthur denied that
there bad been any trouble in his Atlanta
pastorate. He said h*» had never “known
of any trouble there until he read the re

ihai he was seeking to change the form
of service in the Atlanta tabernacle.

members of Calvary church have de

getting other churches to consent to give

they decided that It would be better all

George Wight, who lives in the Pick
wick, lost his automobile. Somebody
drove it away while. Mr. Wight was in
side a building. Mr. Wight was discon
solate.
He went to the police and he went to
the detectives. They took a description
of the car. from make and number to the
scratch on the left rear mud guard, and
promised to rake Fulton county with a
fine tooth comb. But they didn’t find it.
Three days later Mr. Wight told tlie
newspapers of his hard luck and they pub
lished the fact that Overland No. 14893
was missing. That night a resident of
West Fourteenth street called up Mr.
Wight.
"Your machine is standing at West
Peachtree and Fourteenth street,” he
said. ‘lt has been there four days and
everybody has been wondering who owned
It. Its nubiber tag is right in plain view,
and a dozen policemen have passed it.
I wish you'd come out and drive It out of
the way."
Mr. Wight went out and got his car.
He learned that the thief had been mere
ly a borrower and had left the machine
in the street soon after driving it from
the Pickwick. But it seemed queer to
him that the police had not been able
to read the number.
"Better put a burglar alarm on It," sug
gested a friend to whom he told his story.
CHICAGO NOT GUILTY!
WOMEN’S FEET ONLY
AS LARGE AS AVERAGE
CHICAGO, July 4.—Chicago has been
exonerated. Chicago feet are no larger
than other feet. The old joke about rec
ofnizing Chicago women around the cor
ner is based on a false premise. Chiropo
ei.is from all over the country, coming
into Chicago to participate in the organ
ization of a national association of "corn
doctors, " testified earnestly to the fact
that Chicago need not be ashamed of its
pedals.
Dr. Ignace J. Reis, of Chicago, who Is
vice president of the Illinois Association
of Chiropodists, was severe in his denun
ciation of the age-worn joke at the ex
pense of itis fellow townswomen
"Il’s false!’ he cried, bringing one fist
down with a smack into the palm of his
other hand, while his mustache quivered
with rage. “Those who tell you so are
false. The feet of Chicago's fair ones
compare most favorably with those of
Naples. Berlin or Vienna. I have seen
and I know.
“Chicago women also have beautiful feet
and ankles. I have seen and 1 know. It's
an outrage the way New York and the
world libels the feet of Chicago women.
Our women have prettier feet than their
sisters in' New York. 1 have seen and I
know."

ONE GENTLEMAN
HERE.SAYSCOUNT
Invasion of Northerners Has
Made Southern Gentleman
Thing of Past, He Says.
PHILADELPHIA, July 4.—Count Au
gust Schaffelsky DeMukkadel DeCas
tellane Seymour arrived In Philadel
phia announcing that there was but
one real gentleman in the United
States. This one, he added, was A. C.
Cunningham, a real estate broker of
Buffalo.
The visitor Is a real count; at least,
he says so himself. Also he asserts he
Is a cousin of Count Boni DeCastellane.
Count August Schaffelsky, etc., trav
els to the accompaniment of two large
crocodiles, two fox terriers, a valet and
a trained flea. He learned after he
arrived that the best hotels do not have
accommodations for a menagerie. They
told him so and he had to go elsewhere.
He eventually landed in an apartment
house.
His Idea of a Wife,
The count is here to find a wife. Ha
is nearly six feet t;t!l, heavy from sole
to crown: also hea '■ fowled, with
heavy eyes and a heavy tnuoiache. Os
his mustache he is particularly proud.
The count began his lamentations by
declaring he was in the market for a
second wife. He is a widower.
“The marriage must not be one of
those silly love variety affairs." he said.
"My wife and I must be chums, friends,
neighbors, united in mental work. I
prefer a woman whose temples are
tinged with gray (he is about 50 years
old). The gray hairs show reason, ex
perience, knowledge and patience. I
want a marriage of health. My wife
should be self-supporting. She would
have no special rights.
"There must be no kissing, no holding
of hands, no low gas—none of that kind
of foolishness. These are my ideas upon
my wife. T know 1 will be jeered at,
but jeers are for all thinking men.
"In the words of Ella Wheeler Wil
eox, your countrymen are a barbarous
race. I have Investigated them all,
down and outs, low brows and high
brows. Take your alleged New York
society members, for instance. They
just talk, think and dream money.
A Nation of “Hot Air."
“They are not gentlemen. In all my
travels and Investigations, I have met
but one gentleman in the. United
States. He is a real estate broker In
Buffalo and a most charming gentle
man. I spent five hours in his home
and during that time he never spoke
about his business affairs or the affairs
of other persons.
"Here I called upon some of the busi
ness men—husbands of the society
women. I trlqd to converse with them.
It was Impossible. The moment the
conversation got going a third Individ
ual would Invariably appear. 'Hello,
Bill!' is his greeting, and Immediately
your host starts a different conversa
tion. You are a nation of ’hot air.’
“Yes, that is it—hot air. I know
what it means. One of my ancestors
was the Baron Munchausen, who used
to lie so beautifully. Every one knew
he told lies; so they didn’t hurt any
body. He bragged aoout his wonderful
achievements. Here you Americans
brag about things you never did, and
people believe you. That is the hot
air.'
’’All Cast in the Same Mold."
You American men and women are
all cast in the same mold. You do not.
travel and you do not observe. Why.
our working classes abroad are supe
rior ro your society. You know but one
language, and when you travel you ex
pect people in other countries to speak
your language. You are ignorant.
"Go to the theater or your best res
taurants and see how the patrons act.
Tn the theaters they talk and talk.
They know n > better. In the restau
rants they eat with their knives and
use the tumblers as finger bowls, oh,
yes. It’s lovely.
"And you are a nation of gum chew
ers. When your jaws are not going
bragging about wonderful deeds, they
are chewing gum.
"No Southern Gentlemen Now."
"And youi wonderful Southern gen
tlemen. Well, I have traveled the South
United States also. There are not any
Southern gentlemen now. Twenty years
ago there were lots of them. You
money-grabbing Northerners have gone
South, and you have ruined them. The
young women still are beautiful, but
that is all.”
The count ended his tirade by ex
plaining that he never fougttt duels, as
does the Count Boni, and that if he
does not find a suitable woman for a
wife he is willing to open a school.*
with numerous brandies, to teach the
people of the United States deportment.
