GA., Aug. 29.—Hun dreds of Confederate veterans crowded around Miss Regina Rambo today when it was learned that she had been knocked down by a dray and after re covering from a fainting spell had re fused to be taken home for a longer time than to change her dress. Miss Rambo is known to nearly every veteran present, as she has attended many reunions, and last year invited i the vetejans to Marietta. Her spirit and dete’mination not to let the acci dent mar the day was commented upon by all of them, w ho termed her a true daughter of the South and with the pluck and endurance of the women of the Uonfederacy. Miss Rambo is ap parently unhurt after the accident, which was caused by unusual traffic conditions in the town. A larger crow d than was here on the opening day gathered for the final ex ercises in the court house. In the ar mory another gathering took place with the Sons of Veterans as leaders. To Gather Under the Old Flag. Larger crowds than ever took advan tage of tiie interurban car service and came up from Atlanta. Among them were several companies of Roy Scouts, w ho are here to take part in the parade this afternoon. After the business meeting of early today veterans are looking forward to the parade, which starts at 3 o’clock, and when they again will gather in martial assemblage under the familiar old banner. Bright, new, Confederate flags have been provided for the parade and in it also will be the tattered ban ners that went through four years of battling in Virginia, in the West, and in the battles around Kennesaw moun tain. when the spot where the reunion city now stands was the scene of strug gling armies. In the parade, besides the veterans, will be many auxiliary orders. The Sons of the Confederacy will take part in uniform and various maids and sponsors will take part. In addition to them there will be the Marietta Ri fles, a number of mounted police, the fire department and numbers of local orders. Boy Scouts from Atlanta will vie with those of Marietta in keeping time to the steps of the old soldiers. Ball To Be Gala Event.

ALABAMA DEMOCRATS TO RAISE CAMPAIGN FUNDS MOXTGOMERY. ALA. Aug. 29 Chairman Brook- Smith, of the central executive committee of the Wilson- Mai- .all Democratic Clubs Association of Alabama, has called a meeting of the committee for Saturday at the state capitol, to discuss the raising of funds f’i the national campaign. The members of the committee are Breaks Smith, chairman; H J Wil lingham of Montgomery; Frank I’ Gias-. Sr., of Birmingham; John H. Bankhead. Jr . of Jasper; James G < tak ley, of Ashby John . King, of Consul, and John H. Wallace, Jr., of Hunts ville SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS The state convention in Macon was not the great big show the Baltimore national thing was. to be sure, but the Macon convention was some nifty little old show, nevertheless! If ever a rapid-fire convention was pulled off in Georgia, that Macon con vention yesterday was one. Nash Broyles started the, fireworks when he withdrew from the court of appeals race, and threw the convention solidly to Pottle. It was all kept pretty well under cov er until the convention got it, “hot off the bat!” Every element of the dra matic was carefully preserved, and nothing went wrong with the stage settings. And the withdrawal made a pro nounced hit with the convention. The Broyles-Pottle deadlock was an embarrassment of the most positive kind. Both men were popular with the delegates—everybody admitted that each had made a fine race and that both were entitled to emphatic credit for the cleanliness of the methods of campaigning indulged in. Pottle simply had a shade the better of it in the popular vote—that’s all His victory was based upon that, for it was the compelling cause of Broyles’ eventual withdrawal. In getting out of Pottle’s way, grace fully and in manly fashion, Broyles won the Pottle men’s everlasting grati tude. And certainly his own splendid following approved the course he pur sued. Unquestionably, Broyles is very strong before the people of Georgia— stronger todav than he ever was. If the Broyles-Pottle fireworks were interesting, however, the Price-Brown- Blalock performance was melodramatic. Blalock kicked the lid off right from the word go. and went after Brown’s scalp pggressively and pugnaciously— almost savagely! The feeling between Blalock and Brown was very bitter. Then the de partment of agriculture had waded in, and undertaken to flood the tide to Brown with all the force of the patron age and influence at its command. Tom Watson, too. was vigorously hacking Brown —and that’s why Tom Hardwick got in behind that Price boom and helped push it along to mag nificent victory. And after it was all over, there was not a man in the entire state of Georgia one-half so happy as was "Oh! Jim" Price. "Old Jim" was there, with a big hunch furnished by himself, that he was to win. Price had scanned the hoiizon care fully in every direction, not only with ATTORNEYS CROOKED, SO SHE ACTS AS HER OWN COURT LAWYER NEW YORK. Aug. 29.—Mrs. Anna K. Daniel, of 12S West Eighty-second street, announced to Supreme Court Justice Ford that she wanted to argue her own case, because all the lawyers she had come in contact with were so "crooked" she could not trust them. Justice Ford told her to go ahead. She declared at once that in her opin ion the "universal criticism" of the ju diciary and the members of the legal profession is deserved and that the most she could say in favor of the judges is that they are better than the lawyers. Mrs. Daniel pleaded for a stay of pro ceedings in the action brought by the United States Trust Company to fore close a mortgage on her home. Unless the stay is granted, the property will be sold Friday. Justice Ford reserved decision. FINN’S HEAD CAUGHT FLIES BECAUSE HE USED VARNISH WINSTED, CONN.. Aug. 29.—Pat rick Finn. Os Lake street, being in formed that turpentine would remove paint from his hair, applied part of the contents of a bottle supposed to con tain that liquid. At church the flies made a bee line for his head, and stuck there so that he had no difficulty in swatting them When service was over Finn’s head was liberally dotted with dead flies. He discovered he had used floor varnish instead of turpentine.

Ik declares himself guilty who justifies himself before accusation naked eye, but with the strongest field glasses he could procure. Strain his eyes as he would, he could see nothing but rainbows. Price sim ply was written in the stars, and "Old Jim" couldn’t see it othewise, not in as many- trials as he cared to assign himself. And the anti-Brown line-up cer tainly made that guano odor stick to Brown! Guano to the right of Brown, guano to the left of Brown, guano in front of Brown, volleyed and thundered. The fertilizer trust was trotted out. and upon, it was tacked a big placard reading, "This is Brown's dearest friend —and boss!” Brown, whatever the merits of the case may have been, couldn't get away from that thing—and it swamped him. Early Wednesday morning it looked as if the Brown crowd were about t< put over the Elbert county man. Everybody suspected it—except Price. "Old Jim” never lost his belief in himself and the ultimate triumph of his cause. He was optimism personi fied, from start to finish. When it was al! over, and victory had perched high upon the Price banners to stay put, the crowd tried to get a speech out of "Old Jim." And that is' right where he made his getaway! He fled from that convention hall as if the Indians were after him. He plunged into a taxicab and told the driver to take him somewhere— anywhere, just so it was made a quick job. And the chauffeur threw the throttle —if that's what a chauffeur does—w’ide open, and he went away from there with "Old Jim!” "Old Jim” made it safe to the Lanier hiiuse and there he locked himself in a room and defied the mob to make him deliver the oratorical goods. The truth was, “Old Jim” was too full—of genuine joy—for utterance. He is no Demosthenese, anyway, and if hr ■ had been compelled to face that con vention crowd he likely would have broken down and wept salty tears. And. after all was said and done, the finish was the finest thing in the whole show, albeit the least spectacular. Jack Slaton’s nomination and speech had been wisely- postponed to the end. It was a good speech, received with enthusiasm; and-it served metaphori cally to bind up the bleeding wounds of all who had lost out. It was full of appreciation, hope and belief in Georgia and the Democracy. It was a fine benediction, after* a convention that was as th: filing as any "old-time religion" revival could hav been.

Aug. 29—After September 15 all Americans in Mexico w ill be put to death, according to a threat made by General Emilio Campa, who has an army of 400 insurgents in the Sonora district. News of this menacing statement was brought here today by Thomas Holland, a former Texas ranger who recently has been foreman of the San Geronimo mines in Mexico. It is thought Campa's threat was re sponsible for the message to General Steever from the war department asking if more troops were needed on the border.
