■-Shows That Third Party's
Strength Hasn't Come From
Democrats,” He Says.
SEAGIRT. N j.. Sept 4. -Governor
'Vilson expressed himself as delighted
today over the substantial gains made
by the Democrats in the Vermont elec
tion.
"Tiie returns are highly gratifying,''
he said. "You know when the Demo
crats me 'ely held their own in Ver
mont it was cm ouraging, but when
they make a gain of between 20 and
30 per cent, as they did yesterday, you
can he sure it means business.
"It Is encouraging also to note that
! the third party ticket did not draw
| any votes from the Democrats. Tiie
third party strength lias evidently come
'from the Republicans."
Smith Candidacy Amusing.
The governor seemed to be amused
over the candidacy of James Smith,
Jr., for I'nited States senator from
New Jersey, but confined iiis comment
on the Smith candidacy to a broad
grin. Win n Smith’s declaration of be
lief in progressiveness was read to
the governor, he actually laughed.
\t hen asked to say what he and his
friends purposed doing about Smith's
candidacy, he said:
"That situation will take care of it
self."
The governor will have something to
say on this subject when he considers
the time opportune. Smith, of course,
will be vigorously opposi d. The tight
against him undoubtedly w ill be led by
the governor himself.

Hotel Clerks Discuss Dead Beats and Kickers
GLAD-HAND BOYS IN TOWN
The Southeastern Greeters, otherwise
known as the “Glad Hand Boys," are
m Atlanta today to talk of hours and
salaries, of tips and dead beats, of
rooms with baths and best ways to
make a man happy at $3 a day when
he wanted a 12 room. The Greeters
are the hotel clerks of seven Southeast
ern states. There are 75 in the or
ganization, but only 30 could leave
their registers for the second annual
convention.
They bad breakfast at the Imperial
hotel, with Fred Houser, general sec
retary of everything in the hotel busi
ness. as guide, entertainer and general
“ask. me" man They held a business
meeting at the Piedmont, took motors
to Kimballville farm at noon,, sur
rounded a barbecue th re and returned
for a special matinee at the Forsjth.
’1 hey will be given a banquet at the
Piedmont tonight with E. P. Dutton
as the host.
I h"y re a rather live and knowing
bunch o.” fellows, these men behind the
registers ever, if they do have away
of looking at you as though wonder-
Ing whe.c house you travel for and how
much your expense account will stand.
But there are few old-timers among
ihem. I :tere wasn’t in the whole bunch
one of tho-e nineteen-car.it diamonds
which used to be the badge of the
hotel clerk and the principal output of
the plate-glass factories.
Old-Time Clerk Passing.
'V. G. Poole, mam greeter of the old
Blow n house, at Macon, and first presi
dent of the organization, discussed
travelers and hotels while waiting for
the Kimballville motor cars.
The old-time clerk is passing." tie
said. "You don’t see so many of the
eld fellows who know cveiy guest who
ever came to the desk, called him by
his first name and gave him the same
room year after year. The personal
element still Is -trong in the hotel busi
ness, but travelers demand more serv ■
Ice now and less jollying.
■’The hardest man to please? Why,
the fellow who hasn’t been ten miles
away from home before. The old trav
elers are no trouble. They’ll a«k for
.what they want and if you haven’t
got it they’ll take the next best. But
tKe gink from Slabtown off to gee the
sights raises a kick before lip’s dipped
the pen in the ink. makes a holler if
the wall paper is the wrong shade of
pink, and causes a clerk more gray
hairs than all the drummers from Bos
ton to Seattle.
"Sure, it’s easy to size up a man. A
good clerk—and I mean a real born
FLEES Will)
AND IS PINCHED
Mrs. Nora Medley Declares Her
Father Sanctioned Beating
Given Her by Spouse.
“My father had me arrested because
I refused to live with my husband. 1
left my husband Sunday after he beat
me Saturday night. My father said my
husband ought to have beat me, and
said he would whip me himself if I
didn’t go back.”
Mrs. Nora Medley, who lives in El
liott street near North avenue, today
gave this explanation as to why she
is held prisoner in the matron's ward
at the police station. She was taken
into custody last night at the home of
a friend, near her own home, where
I she had been.stopping since the separa
tion Sunday.
Mrs. Medley has two small girls, who
are now in possession of their father,
she says.
"But I’m going to court and take
them away from him," she exclaimed.
"He shall not keep them. And I don't
intend to live with him any more,
either.”
Mrs. Medley has been married four
years. Her husband is Ed L. Medley.
GIRL. MASQUERADING
AS MAN. IS ARRESTED
BY SAVANNAH POLICE
SAVANNAH, GA.. Sept. 4.—Mas
querading as a man, a young woman,
giving her name as Leia Dean, of Cin
cinnati, Ohio, has been placed under
arrest here. The girl is evidently an
incorrigible. She says she ran away ;
j from her home in Cincinnati two years j
ago. She traveled ten months with al
circus, which was her only opportunity I
for developing her theatrical aspira- j
tions.
The girl s mother then found her
and sent her to an institution for way- I
ward girls. She escaped from tiie home •
and made her way to Columbia, S. C., !
where her behavior was such that she I
was given a few hours in which to I
leave town. Here she fell in with a I
crowd of sailors, who fitted her out ;
i with men’s clothing and turned her i
loose on the streets, after she had her !
long hair cut off.
STORM OVERTURNS AUTO:
FOUR OCCUPANTS HURT'
GENEVA. N. V.. Sept. 4.—Thousands I
of dollars damage waa done by a storm
of tornado-like violence which passed
over this section. Apple trees were
torn out by the roots, a school house
was demolished, roofs wore torn from
building? and telephone and telegraph
lines put out of commission.
An automobile was caught in thei
storm and turned turtle. The fourl
occupants were hurried to the city hos- I
hotel clerk, not an imitation—can take
a look at a man as he comes in the
door, size v his roll and his disposi
tion and know’ whether he wants a
$1.50 on the air shafts or a suite with
bath overlooking the lawn. No, it isn't
his clothes. I couldn’t say just what
it is. But it’s there. We don't often
make mistakes.
Tipping Hurts the Hotel.
“Tips? Now’, why do you reporters
always start the tip question? But IT
tell you something you didn’t know,
perhaps. The hotel men wish there
wasn't any such thing as a tip. \v,
pay our help, at least we do in the
South, and there’s no real reason for
tipping.
’Til tell you why hotel men don’t
like it. Suppose you go into lunch and
order a 75-cent steak and slip the w a
-a quarter tip. He's likely to bring
you a SI or $1.25 steak for 75 cent
and the hotel loses tiie difference and
you get more than you pay for. And.
besides that, if a waiter or a bell bo.\
gives you more service titan you’re en
titled to it means some other guest
who didn’t tip gets less than is com
ing’ to him and he goes away with a
grouch on the hotel.
"Yes, the spring crop of brides and
grooms has been about up to the
average—perhaps a little better. And.
say, they’re the easy folk to plea:-.
They never kick on anything, forth -
don’t see anything but each other. I
can spot them at a glance, and I a’-
ways give them the best in the house
and tell the bell hop-- net so bother
them. The man-just-married wdi
usually take the best and pay for
whether lie can afford it or not. atrl
you can’t blame him. Natu’-jll-, a m..
wants to make a good showing, even
if ii can’t last. No. I'm not a. mar
ried man but I can sympathize with
them."
One of the principal objects of tiie
American Greeters, of which (lie Soutu.
eastern association is a part, is to co
operate in catching and getting rid
hotel dead beats, those wel -dress,
travelers who leave a t.c.il of bad
checks and bum drafts behind them
They swap descriptions of such gen
try, send out photographs of forged
signatures anti help the hotel propiic
tors in improving conditions in ettrv
way they can.
