PLANTS DRUGGING
One at Proctor Creek Nearly
Completed—Two Others Are
Far Behind Schedule. .
OnP of Atlanta’s sewage disposal
that at Proctor creek, is virtu
■i’iv completed, but the other two, the
p ( !( htree and Intrenchment creek, will
i„ finished in anything like the
originally expected. The inspec
\ , . ir ty, under the direction of Cap
r M. Clayton, chief of construc
" . obtained definite information as
J', thr . progress of these plants on an
~b.,rvation tour of work in the’city
aEI ; county being done under the di
rection of Captain Clayton.
Chester A. Dady, of New York, has
the contract for the building of the
p, ichtrce and Intrenchment creek
plants and he has been warned again
', n j again that the work was not pro
gressing rapidly enough. What is to
|,e finally done will be decided by coun
cil.
. sewage from all the southwest
er,, section of the city will be turned
)l; . ~ the Proctor creek plant within the
rew few days, giving far better sani
advantages to all that section.
Tl nigh it will be more than a year
bcibre th, other plants are completed,
tli intercepting sewttfs are being con
necter! up and the city's waste matter
carried several miles further away be
fnr, i: is turned into open streams.
Several miles of Peachtree creek has
already boon purified by this means and
the department will soon be able to
handl' Intrenchment creek in the same
way.
Two of the most interesting pieces of
woik now under way are two tremend
ous sewers, a fourteen foot sewer which
extends for about 2,500 feet on the
Pidor line to the Proctor creek plant
and a fifteen foot sewer which extends
from the junction of the Butler street
and Highland avenue sewers to Pied
mont park. These huge sewers are
being built by the county convicts.

NOW ONLY HOPE LEFT
DR. W. J. M’NAUGHTON
SWAINSBORO, GA., July 24. —With
the prison commission and the gov
ernor will soon rest the fate of Dr. W.
J. McNaughton, the physician now un
der sentence of death for the alleged
poisoning of Fred Flanders, a prom
inent farmer of Emanuel county. F.
H. Stafford, McNaughton's attorney,
has announced that he will not take
the case to the United States supreme
court, as was reported a few days ago.
Mr. Safford has posted notice at the
court house that he will appeal to the
prison board. Mr. Safford says that
he has exhausted every means to get a
rehearing and that lie does not care
to carry the case up unless he him
self felt that he had sufficient grounds,
all the courts having denied the many
attempts to have the verdict set aside.
It is probable that Judge B. T. Raw
lings will resentence Dr. McNaughton
on July 30, though he has not made
the definite announcement.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. WEDNESDAY, JULY 24, 1912.
ISN'T HOT! ONLY
FEELS THAT W
Atlanta’s Temperature Far Be
low That of Many Cities of
the ‘"Cool” North.
Do you want to feel cool, even today
when the mercury Is boiling and siz
zling around 95 degrees on the streets,
the record heat for Atlanta this sum
mer?
All you have to do Is to visit the local
weather bureau and look over a table
of temperatures which the weather man
has "doped” out for about fifteen of the
principal cities of the United States.
The local weather man is an optimist
If nothing else. When all Atlanta
fumed and fretted yesterday and when
several horses and mules fell prostrate
from the heat, Forecaster VonHerr
mann was preparing a table that
showed that since July. 1 Atlanta has
had almost continually a temperature
of from 10 to 15 degrees below that of
other cities. The list Includes Boston,
New York. Washington, Memphis, St.
Louis, Charleston and even Montreal,
Canada.
The record temperature of the local
season was reached yesterday when the
official thermometer registered 91 de
grees about 3 o'clock In the afternoon.
The thermometer is on top of a four
teen-story building. Down on the
streets jhe mercury sailed up as high
as 94 degrees. Today bids fair to break
that record.
For at least two days longer this
weather will continue, and even the
nights will be Just as hot as the last
two, when the maximum temperature
between sunset and sunrise was 74 de
grees.
"Atlanta people are lucky to get as
cool weather as they have had," says
Mr. VonHerrmann, "and they feel the
heat more because they have had ,such
remarkably cool temperatures this
summer.”
FREE LUNCHES OUTLAWED.
LOS ANGELES, July 24.—Free
lunches in all saloons have been out
lawed here by an ordinance just passed
by the city council.
Heat Prostrates
Man in Columbus
COLUMBUS. GA., July 24.—The first

lumbus in several years occurred yes
terday afternoon, when John T. Nor
man, one of the best known business
men In the city, was overcome while in
the Fourth National Bank building. Mr.
Norman was taken to his home, where
he is resting quietly. The physicians
say he will recover.
AMERICAN BEEF TRUST
INVADES AUSTRALIA
MELBOURNE, AJjSTRALIA, July
24.—Attorney General Hughes, of Aus
tralia, today announced that the Ameri
can beef trust had purchased land in
Australia and had negotiated for all
the supplies necessary to the estab
lishment of a big packing industry.
The attorney general declared that
however much the government might
deplore this Industrial Invasion, it was
powerless to act in the matter under
the present status of the laws.
CABLE BREAKS; ONE KILLED.
ENLEDGE HILL, PA.. July 24.—One
man was killed and three others fatally
Injured today when they fell from a
cable being used In the construction of
a water tower here.
I Lillian Russell’s Warning.
Sore Feet; Bad Health
Lillian Russell is a physical wonder.
Now. In mature years, but having pre
served the fresh beauty of youth. In
the Chicago Tribune she says: "Care of
the feet, hardest worked members of
the body, is abso
lutely essential to
health. Irritation
from sore feet oft
en causes serious
nervous disorders,
and nothing brings
face wrinkles
quicker.” Here is
the best treatment
known to science
for all foot ail-
H
ments. It works through the pores and
removes the cause. ‘‘Dissolve two table
spoonfuls of Calocide compound in a basin
of warm water. Soak the feet in this
for full fifteen minutes, gently rubbing
the sore parts.” The effect is magical.
All soreness disappears Instantly. Corns
and callouses can be peeled right off It
gives instant relief for bunions, aching
and sweaty, smelly feet. Any druggist
has Calocide in stock or will quickly get
it from his wholesale house. A twenty
five cent box usually cures the worst
feet. Calocide is not a patent medicine.
Don’t waste money on uncertain remedies.
Insist on getting what you want from the
druggist.
