SOUTH SIDERS IN
STREETCHUSfIOE
Delay in Starting Improvement
of Moreland and Georgia
Avenues Vexes Citizens.
The south side mass meeting last
night in the old city hall, called in the
interest of the boulevard from West
End to Grant park project, took on a
decided political color.
Alderman John E. McClelland, can
didate for mayor, charged that the
boulevard work bad been postponed by
the city and county officials In order
that Moreland avenue, the street on
which Councilman Aldine Chambers,
also a candidate for mayor, Ilves, and
Ivy street might be improved first. Ai
derman McClelland was much agitated
during his speech.
Councilman Chambers and County
fommissioners S. B. Turman and Shel.
by Smith were earnest in their denials
of the charge. Councilman Chambers
declared that the improvement of More
land avenue, a street in very bad con
dition, had been decided upon in an
open meeting of council. All the offi
cials said that the south side boulevard
work would be done as soon as prac
tical.
Only a fair-sized crowd was present.
All other subjects but the south side
boulevard were barred from discussion.
It was shown that the greater part of
the 59.000 appropriated to begin the
boulevard work had been spent in
building underpasses at the junction of
Glenn street and the Southern and Cen
tral railroads. The regrading and re
paving of Georgia avenue is included in
the project. The improvement was de
cided upon by council in 1910.
The property owners expressed their
dissatisfaction at the slow progress of
the work, however, and appointed a
committee of ten members from each
of the Second. Third. Seventh and
Tenth wards to go before the streets
committee of council this afternoon and
urge more dispatch in the work. R. R
Otis was made chairman of the com
mittee.

“History” Tells Court Roosevelt Will Win
T. R. SEER SENT TO JAIL
"History" says that Theodore Roose
velt will be the next president of the
United States.
This is neither ancient nor modem
history, as found in the libraries and
current literature, but just plain old
every-day human history. In other
words, "History” Is the familiar term
by which Zachary T. Hall, a remark
able negro character, for years has
been known to students of the Univer
sity of Georgia.
"History’’ worked about the universi
ty until about three years ago, and
gained his soubriquet from the fact
that he can reel off the history of
prominent men and events by the hour,
giving names, dates and all important
data.
"History" made his Roosevelt pre
diction as he faced Recorder Pro Teni
Preston In police court. He had fallen
into the toils by reason.of the fact that
he has been without a job during the
past few weeks and has been seen too
frequently by the police in the streets.
He was up for idling and loitering.
Judge Preston had heard of the ne-
MILLER HEED
FDR CONSPIRACY
Woolen Manufacturer Surren
ders to Charge of “Planting”
Dynamite in Strike.
BOSTON. Aug. 30.—William M.
Wood, president of the American Wool
en Company, one of the largest woolen
millers in the United States and the
most prominent figure in the recent
textile strike in Lawrence, who had
been indicted, surrendered today to an
swer a charge of conspiracy to plant
the dynamite that was found in Law
rence at the time of the strike for the
purpose of discrediting the cause of
the strikers. Detectives had been
seatching for Wood for two days. His
attorney arranged for his appearance
at the district attorney s office.
The indictment of Wood caused a
tremendous sensation in textile and;
other business circles.
Wood was the most prominent of the |
four men indicted by a special Suffolk I
county grand jury for the planting of
dynamite in Lawrence. Wood lives
with his wife and three children at
Andover His Boston offices are at 82
Devonshire street.
The indictment of Wood and the
other three men, two of whom are
prominent in the textile world, fol
lowed the suicide of E. W. Pitman, a
big mill builder and an Andover neigh
bor of Wood, who was also in the dy.ia- I
mite conspiracy, it is declared, and |
whose admissions to District Attorney’
Pellethier led to the grand jury investi- I
gation. i
Rather than appear before the grand
jury in response to a summons and tell
what he knew about Wood and his
other friends in the conspiracy Pitman
ended his life by filing a bullet into his
brain.
Mr. Pellethier got the information I
fco* the indictments-of the "men higlp--.’,
up" from Pitman and from John J. i
Breene. the Lawrence undertaker, who)
was fined s.>oo in the Salem court sot I
placing the dynamite where it was I
found. ‘ ‘
ANNUAL LOSS THROUGH .
HEN FRUIT IS $45,000,000
WASHINGTON. Aug. 30,—Improper
handling of eggs is responsible so» an
annual loss of the huge sum of $45,000,000,
according to department of agriculture
experts, who have been investigating the
egg-smashing business.
This enormous loss is due to small eggs,
cracked and broken eggs, dirty, stale
and rotten eggs. The improper handling
is a loss to farmers, middlemen and con
sumers alike, say the experts ,and they
urge everybody to get busy and institute
reforms which will do away with it.

gro and his wonderful memory, and en
tertained the police court audience by
asking the negro numerous questions
concerning men and events in the
United States and even other nations.
"History” had a ready response for
every question, and so far as those in
the court room could tell answered
every- one correctly.
"I suppose you can also foretell fu
ture events.” suggested the recorder. "I
would be glad if you will tell us who
will be the next president of the United
States."
“Teddy Roosevelt," came the quick
reply.
Judge Preston then sentenced the ne
gro to serve eleven days in the stock

Whether "History" will repeat him
self is a question.

NEW YORkTaut 30.—When the

herself into the arms of a stalwart
young man, while the passengers
cheered.
Noel Deerr, a young English sugar

standing in a London crowd when a
scaffolding behind him began to give

He heard a scream, and seeing a girl in
the crush lose her footing, caught her
up and. exerting all his strength, swung
her to a place of safety. The young
woman thanked her rescuer and asked
his name. A few days later Mr. Deerr
received an invitation to a reception,
