GEORGIA FRUITS
GONE; PRICES OP
California Pears. Grapes, and
Plums Reach Local Market.
No Change in Meats.
Other produce than that familiar to
frequenters of Atlanta’s market section
is now being spread on display counters
and is causing housekeepers” to draw
more heavily on their grocery sums.
California fruits have appeared, tak
ing the place of the Georgia product,
and the prices are materially advanced.
But few cars of the Western fruits
have reached Atlanta. The dealers,
finding the demand good, are selling
a dozen pears for 4Q cents, a basket of
grapes for 80 cents or a dozen Jap
anese plums for 20 cents.
Since the Georgia fruits began to dis
appear from city markets a few days
ago the demand for that of the West
has grown, and today, with little of the
home grown produce on hand, the deal
ers are rapidly stocking with the high
er priced kind.
The varieties of vegetables
handled by local produce merchants
s have remained generally at the figures
of a week ago. Though the supply In
some eases has decreased, the demand
also has fallen.
This has been probably the first week
of the year that some change in the
retail prices of meats has not been felt.
• Cuts, steaks and chops today are at the
same figure is they were Monday morn

TELEPHONE AIDS HEARING.
ACCORDING TO SPECIALIST
BOSTON, MASS., Aug 17. Dr. Hu
bert D Hamilton, of Montreal, delegate
to the Ninth International Congress of
the Ear Specialists at Harvard uni
versity, declares the telephone is a great
help to the ear.
"Too many old-fashioned remedies
like hot onions," says Dr. Hamilton,
"have made people deaf. Trust science
to give her best. Stick nothing in your
ear except your elbow. The telephone
vibrations help rather than hinder the
ear."

ALEXANDER RALLY
IN CABLE HALL NOT
LARGELY ATTENDED
Tin re was an Alexander rally In Ca-
I file hall last night, which was attended
I by more than three score persons.
The gathering was addressed by C. A.
1 Brannon. M. F. Buchanan, Charles D.
McKinney and Thomas B. Goodwin.
All of the speeches were along the
ti mil line of Mr Alexander's campaign
addresses, cards and promulgations.
Georgia was declared to be in a state
of anarchy; the “bosses" were alleged
to be ruling while the people weep; the
newspapers were viewed with alarm
ami resolved to be In a diabolical league
against Mr. Alexander, and Slaton's
ampaign was declared to be tn the
hands of the "big interests."
Nothing much, one way or the other,
seemed to be thought of Joe Hill Hall,
and his campaign was scarcely men
tioned at all.

In the state.
. In his capacity of party leader In
Georgia, Jackson has opposed the re
appointment of Postmaster McKee.
Postmaster McKee and Postmastei
io neral Hitchcock arc warm friends
and largely because of Mr. McKee's ex
cellent administration, as Hitchcock
sees It, of the Atlanta postoffice.
Hitchcock is reported to have said
that McKee shall be reappointed, de
spite all the Jacksons in Georgia.
Not only that, but C. D. Hilles, na- J

apparently has taken a sideswipe at
