JUSTICE COURTS
ILL BE PROBED!
Grand Jury Appoints Commit
tee to Investigate Procedure
of Minor Tribunals.
Fulton county’s grand jury is going to
make a careful investigation of the jus
tice of the peace courts. A committge
for this purpose has been appointed by
Foreman G. S. Prior. Harry G. Poole,
L o. Watson, J. H. Elliott and L. J.
Daniel, the committee named, will have
charge of the work.
The selection of men for the investiga
tion came after a long discussion of re
ports from persons dissatisfied with re
cent decisions in the courts, and the com
mittee was warned to give close attention
to the proceedings of the justices.
Several other committees were named
by the inquisitors. The session today
was confined to arrangements to keep in
touch with the county’s affairs and men
were selected to watch the almshouse, the
county jail, public works of various kinds
and other business affairs of the county.
.Justice J. B. Ridley was re-elected to
that office by the jury. Mr. Ridley holds
one of the offices the grand jury fills, and
received the place without opposition.
PSYCHOLOGIST TRIES
TO EVOLVE MISSING
LINK FROM BABY APE
BALTIMORE, MD„ Sept. 13,—1n an
effort to evolve a baby monkey into
the missing link between the ape tribe
and the human race. Dr. John B. Wat
son. director of the psychological lab
oratory of Johns Hopkins university,
is the moving spirit, and it is under his
direction that all the experiments are
being made.
Before the baby ape drew his first
breath of life in the laboratory nearly
two months ago his parents had been
watched for months. They were intel,
ligent apes, and were naturally pre
sumed to be the proper parents of a
probably more intelligent offspring. But
the baby is being trained in human
ways and soon, when it is feasible
to take him from the care of his moth,
er. it is planned to make his schooling
still more elaborate.
It it is found that the Jjabe can be
:aught to do things humanlike, every
effort will be put forth to develop his
mind along lines that will fairly test
iiis mental capacity to assimilate hu
man knowledge.

Military Ball October 10 To Be a Gala Event
OLDGUARDTO ENTERTAIN
A brilliant reception which will bring
together many of the most promipent
military men in the country is being
arranged by the Old Guard of Atlanta
for the evening of October 10, at the
Aud itori um - Armory.
The occasion will be the first anniver
sary of the unveiling of the peace monu
ment at Piedmont park, and the gather
ing in Atalnta of hundreds of prominent
men tn the crack military companies of
the North and East.
More than ft.OOO invitations will be sent
out and the names of those who are to
receive them are being worked out from
lists sent in by members of the Old
Guard to Dr. E. .1. Spratling. captain
adjutant. About 1,000 of these invita
tions. which will be handsome and in
the nature of a souvenir, will be sent to
Atlantans, and the remainder will go to
prominent military men and their wives
who last year came to Atlanta to take
part in the unveiling exercises.
Invited to act as chaperones at the
dance which will follow the reception will
be sixteen of Atlanta’s leading women
I heir names have not been announced.
A Unique Organization.
The organization of the Old Guard is
unique in itself, composed as it is of 100
of the most prominent men in Atlanta
who have been identified with military
affairs, and commanded by Major John
I'. Burke, who in the early seventies led
the old Gate City Guard on its reconcil
iation trip through tiie principal cities
of the East. A number of the present
membership is made up of survivors of
that famous company, which made itself
the most famous military company in
America, and which has been given credit
for accomplishing more toward renewing
a fraternal spirit between North and
South than any other organization.
The program for the occasion is for a
reception early in the evening, which is
to be followed by a parade of the Old
Guard in their splendid full dress uni
form. which will he worn for the first
time before the public. At the reception
they will appear in their fatigue uni
forms, and. these will be discarded for
the parade.
Following the parade will come the
dance of the evening, when the most bril
liant and gorgeous military and social
spectacle ever witnessed in Atlanta will
be seen.
The occasion will be a mingling of the
old Atlanta and the new, and the sight
of the city’s handsomest matrons and
most winsome debutantes gliding over the
floor on the arms of the brilliantly
garbed soldiers will be gorgeous and
beaut iful.
Students to do Guard Duty.
For the dance and to play at intervals
during the reception a band of thirty
pieces has been engaged and the ample
floor of Taft hall will be prepared espe
cially.
Students of the Georgia Military acad
emy at College Park feel that they have
been placed several ranks above any mili
tary school in this section by being chosen
to do guard duty on that night. They will
