SOUTH SIDERS IN STBEETMDE 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. Aiderman John E. McClelland, can didate for mayor, charged that the boulevard work had 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, lives, and Ivy street might bt> improved first. Ai derman McClelland was much agitated during his speech. Councilman Chambers and County Commissioners 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. AU other subjects but the south side boulevard were barred from discussion. It was shown that the greater part of the $9,000 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 mote dispatch in the work. R. R Otis was made chairman of the com mittee. RESCUED FROM CAISSON. DIES FROM GAS FUMES CHICAGO, Aug. 30.—Thomas Burke, a caisson worker, died from the effects of gas fumes after he had been rescued in a spectacular manner from the bottom of an 80-foot well in the excavation of the New Continental and Commercial &ink building here. Lieutenant John T. Monahan, of the Chicago tire department, donned an oxy gen helmet, descended into the caisson, and, while more than a thousand persons looked on, rescued the unconscious man. Healtte®6 Women who bear children and re main healthy are those who prepare their systems in advance of baby's coming. Unless the mother aids nature in its pre-natal work the crisis finds her system unequal to the de mands made upon it, and she is often left with weakened health or chronic ailments. No remedy is so truly a help to nature as Mother’s Friend, and no expectant mother should fail to use it. It relieves the pain and discomfort caused by the strain on the ligaments, makes pliant and elas tic those fibres and muscles which nature is expanding, prevents numb ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam mation of breast glands. The system being thus prepared by Mother's Friend dispels the fear that the crisis may not be safely met. Mother’s Friend assures a speedy and complete recovery for the mother, and she is left a healthy woman to enjoy the rearing of her SSL < “ om « drug stores.

This is neither ancient nor modern 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, givfhg names, dates and all important data. “History” made his Roosevelt pre diction as he faced Recorder Pro Tem 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- BIG MILLER HELD FOR OONSPIHAGY 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 searching fir 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 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 S 3 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 dyna mite conspiracy, it is declared, and whose admissions to District Attorney Pellethier led to the grand jury investi gation. 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 for the indictments of the "men higher up” from Pitman and from John J. Breene. the Lawrence undertaker, who was fined SSOO in the Salem court for placing the dynamite where it was found. ANNUAL LOSS THROUGH HEN FRUIT IS $45,000,000 WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.—Improper handling of eggs is responsible for 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 anti 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. TIED UP BY WIFE AND PUT INTO DUMB WAITER NEW YORK, Aug. 30.—Frederick Bo land’s wife couldn’t get a policeman to stop her husband breaking the china, so she tied him up and shoved him in the dumb waiter, where his cries brought the guardian of the peace.

"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 ade. Whether "History” will repeat him self is a question. ’ MANI ARE ENROLLING AT THE SOUTHERN BUSINESS COLLEGE FOR THE FALL SESSION More Popular Than Ever,, the Big School Is Receiv ing Pupils From All Parts of the Country.

Aug. 30.—When the Minnehaha, of the Atlantic Transport line, arrived at her pier, a young wom an ran down the gang-plank and threw herself into the arms of a stalwart young man, while the passengers cheered. Noel Deerr, a young English sugar planter living in Hawaii, went home for the coronation of King George. He was standing in a London crowd when a scatfolding behind him began to give way. The people swayed and pushed. He heard a scream, and seeing a girl in the cru“h lose her footing, caught her up and. exerting all his strength, swung iter 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, where he was formally introduced to Miss Rhoda Wilson. When Deerr re turned to Honolulu the couple kept up a correspondence Miss Wilson and Mr. Deerr will be married at once and will then leave for Honolulu. . TTAiJOc , ~~~~x WWWW II 1 & Oi A. C.
