the robber gang that looted the branch
Bank of Montreal at New Westminster,
B. ('.. of $272,000, are unde' arrest here
today. They are kept surrounded by
ponderous mystery. Who they are,
where they were arrested, what leads
the police to think they have the right
mon. and whether they are the same
persons who chastised Lieutenant
Bm ns when he tried to arrest them
“single handl'd," are matters on which
the police win throw no light.
In an official police automobile that
broke all the speed regulations in Chi
cago the two men were whirled away
through the downtown some time be
fore daylight. They are said to be in
in outlying station, where Inter in the
day the heads of the department will
apply th. "third degree." But until
the questioning i- over, the police say,
they will make no statement.

Miss Florence Webber Declares
Game Will Add Many Years
to Life of Person.
If you have a good singing voice and
want to keep it—play golf. That's the
advice of Miss Florence Webber, expert
in the game and star in "Naughty Ma
rietta,” at the Atlanta theater.
Moreover, Miss Webber believes—or
I almost believes that golf is the cure
for all the ills to which man and wom
an are heirs Her own experiences led
her to form that opinion.
This morning Miss Webber,was on
the golf links again at East Ixike pre
paring for her heavy work of two per
formances of the Victor Herbert opera
today. Yesterday Miss Webber played
for three hours on the East Lake course
and turned in a good score. She made
the first nine in 50 yesterday, though
she was not used to the course. Miss
Webber is from Indianapolis and on
August IS she won the Indiana wom
an's championship. She holds several
trophies wou at golfing and hopes tc
add to her list. She likes the game im
mensely. but it is medicine and a
strength-make- to her. which holds her
to It so strenuously.
"1 find that 1 am frequently on the
verge of hr, akdowns from the heavy
Work which my part necessitates," said
Miss Webber "It is then 1 hike to a
golf course and put in several hours at
hard play. The open air. of course, has
much to do with the curative and pre
-ervatlvb powers of the game, but 1 find
it does me a world of good tn many
ways to play. When it is possible I
spend two to six afternoons each week
on tile course and as a result I am able
to withstand the hardships of travel
and work in an astonishing manner.
"For instance, last Sunday 1 reached
Charleston after a week of hard travel
and work. Immediately I had a doctor,
whose prescriptions I followed tl it
day. Hat \londny morning 1 hied to a
golf course and played for three hours
with vim and enthusiasm. The result
almost complete recovery of my
strength and really a new lease of life
tor the week. Yesterday when 1
■cached Atlanta 1 was completely tired
mt. but tht afternoon on the golf links
s m. to feeling tine, and last night I
l was aid - to -ing and dance with ac-
I -ustomed ardor My part requires con
- ■let-aide physical strength, as well as
iv-.cal powers and in golfing I get what
1 need to conserve my natural gifts in
that aspect
"If 1 were asked to give advice to all
women 1 would say play golf by all
means no matter what your duties in
ev, i-y-day life may be. Even if you
■'la'. no duties which require strength,
;<df will add to your general healthful
■million and giv-- wars of lite to
everybody."
NNDEBBILT CUP
RACE POSTPONED
Rain Puts Track in Bad Condi
tion-Event to Take. Place
Next Week.
MILWAUKEE. Sept. 21.—Rain that
fell all night left the Wauwatosa course
over which the Vanderbilt cup race was
to have been run today a sea of mud
interspersed with pools of water. The
track was in such condition that ex
perts who went over jt shortly after
daylight said it would be impossible to
run the race.
The officials were loath to call off the
event. They planned to inspect the
track officially before they took final
action. Late yesterday they had issued
a statement that they- would run the
race today, even should it be raining, if
the course was passable. The drivers
returned disgustedly to their hotels to
day. It was secretly agreed yesterday
that if the races could not be run today
an attempt would be made to hold them
early next week.
Although official postponement of the
race has not yet been announced and
probably will not be until 11 o’clock,
the time the ears were to start, plans
to run the race Tuesday have tentative
ly been made. According to the plans,
the Wisconsin cup and Pabst trophy
race would be made morning features
for Tuesday, with the Vanderbilt cup
the afternoon card and the grand prize
Wednesday. Some of the officials fa
vor g postponement of ten days, to give
weather conditions time to settle and
get the course in better shape.
The Vanderbilt cup rules provide that
the cars must be at scratch on the day
and hour set for the event. Eor this
reason it is possible that the men will
line up today and no announcement of
the postponement be forthcoming until
the cars are ready for a start.
SCHOOL FIGHT ON
FRATS LEADS TO
DOUBLE WEDDING
< HK'AGO, Sept. 21.—“ Four Hearts
I hat Beat as Two,” or “A Romance of
the Fraternity War of 1904,” would be
a fitting title to the double wedding to
be performed at. the Holy Angels'
church. Mabel Thorpe is to wed Jo
seph J. Grindell, mining engineer. At
the same time Miss Thorpe’s brother,
William J. Thorpe, is to wed Miss Elva
Putman, who lives at the Thorpe home.
The wedding is the culmination of
the fraternity fight waged by the Chi
cago school authorities against frater
nities and sororities in 1904. Miss
; Thorpe and Miss Putman were mem
: bers of the same, sorority and Thorpe
1 and Grindell were members of the
same fraternity. Both societies were
i placed under the ban of the faculty of
■ the Wandell Phillips school.
Both girls and boys were members St
committees appointed to meet and con
fer on ways and means to combat the
school edict. At the meeting Thorpe
met Miss Putman and Grindell met
Miss Thorpe. A friendship sprang up
and last year the couples became en
gaged.
TEN BABIES IN COURT

SOUTH BEND, IND., Sept. 21
Judge G. A. Farabaugh, much to hfs
embarrassment, had to try eases in the
county court today in the presence of
ten crying infants, after he had wel
comed the first visit of the stork to his
home. A half dozen Hungarian women
sat before him with the babies on their
laps, unaware that the little bundles
they had were responsible for a rather
odd situation.

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Governor Joseph M. Brown is method
personified.
He is system run riot!
k .
He can go any
where about the
executive offices,
at any hour of the
day or night, with
or without a light,
and place his hand
instantly and pre
cisely upon such
document or thing
as he may be
seeking.
The governor
believes in having
a place for every
thing, and in hav
ing everything in
its place.
He makes most
cf his official
notes, outlines his
public utterances, orders, and so forth,
on the back of envelopes from which
the mail has been withdrawn.
He can get more words on the back
of one envelope than anybody else in
the world.
They say put seventeen hun
dred words on one ordinary postal card,
and he wasn’t trying, particularly, at
that!
Having outlined a message to the leg
islature, an executive order, or some
thing of the sort, on the back of an en
velope, he dictates it to a stenographer
in such exact form as he wishes it to go
out to the public, and then he care
fully stores away the original docu
ment.
It is a fact that the governor can, by
referring to his file of envelope-backs,
inform himself instantly of the sum and
substance of each and every promulga
tion during either of his administra
tions.
It is all there —nothing whatever is
missing!
The governor is a student—a stu
dent in the broadest and most compre
hensive sense of the word. He digs for
things until he gets them—sometimes
the digging is easy, sometimes it is
hard. It makes no difference to the
governor. He keeps right on digging
until he uncovers the thing he is after.
The governor has quite a literary
turn of mind, and his state papers—
even as his campaign cards—are mod
els of English, and unquestionably car
ry the "punch!”
To see him walking along the street—
he always hurries—one never would
suspect him of having concealed some
where about his person an executive
document of some thousand or two
words. And yet he may have just that
—in his vest pocket, on the back of an
envelope!
Clayton Robson, of Milledgeville, is
weighted down once more with grave
responsibilities of state!
He has been re-elected chairman of
the senatorial executive committee for
the Twentieth district!
Robson undertook to duck this honor
and distinction, and begged that he be
permitted to retire, and rest upon his
already well earned laurels. There was

normal condition of

nothing doing, however, in the begging,
off business.
There was an uprising of the people
in Baldwin (composed of Carl Vinson,
Joe Pottle and two other persons) and
Robson had to take that job again,
whether he would or no.
It is going to rest heavy on Robson’s
mind for the next two years—that job—
but he finally agreed to accept again,
anyway!
The Macon Telegraph, keeping a
clear head in the conning tower always,
warns Democrats that, whil,e Wilson
likely will be elected, they will make
a possibly fatal mistake by indulging
in overconfidence.
The Telegraph quotesTdr. Jacob Col
lins, a prominent Savannah man, just
returned from a trip North, to the
effect that Roosevelt is making rapid
gains in the North, and that he is the
man Wilson must defeat for the presi
dency—and Collins things that under
taking is destined to be no sort of May
picnic.
The Telegraph particularly laments
the woeful lack of interest in the as
sembling of Wilson’s campaign fund,
and evidently thinks that' a sign of
danger to the party in November.
Seeing in Roosevelt’s prospective vote
a grave menace to Wilson, The Tele
graph discusses that vote more or less
disgustedly, but none the less pointed
ly, saying:
Roosevelt is drawing heavily
from the “progressives” in both
old parties. He gets them, bag and
baggage, from the Republican
ranks —that goes without the say
ing. In addition, he gets the Re
publican “outs,” the disappointed
and disgruntled. He gets such a
proportion of the rich as will make
his campaign fund all-sufficient. He
gets the hero worshipers, the men,
who are many, that like to follow
the brass band and the man on
horseback with spurs and lariat.
He gets the men who are habitual
ly led by a will-o’-the-wisp into a
forbidding marsh, failing to she the
pole star of fixedness. He gets the
men who are trapped by the “di
vine call” profanation.
And, whatever one may think of it,
if he gets all those elements into the
ballot box in his favor, he may—likely
will—win the presidency!
In the meantime, Georgia Bull
Mooses are preparing to give dolonel
Roosevelt the reception of his life in
this city next Saturday!
The former president is sure to have
a fetching word to say in "my mother’s
state.”
He knows how to play on that par
ticular string most engagingly—and
those who doubt it will change their
minds if they come to Atlanta to hear
him speak.
W hen it comes to taking the audience
up into the mountain tops and showing
it the kingdoms of earth. T. Roosevelt
is the most successful little taker-up
that ever played the game of politics!
The safest way to keep right along
viewing Mr. Roosevelt with alarm and
rejecting his brand of gospel is to keep
your distance from him!
The man has "away with him’’—no
mistake about that!
