Capital City Case Women Find
Two Pioneers. Snapbean and
Cowpea. Forsaken.
Despite the combined efforts of res-!
tauranfs, Southern cooking- is not on
the wane in Atlanta. The Importation
of less succulent but more expensive!
| foods, foisted in place of the old-sash- I
| ioned grub, has failed utterly to deaden
I Atlanta's tooth for Dixie dishes.
No less authority than the proprie
tresses of the Capital City Case, mem
bers of Habersham Chapter, D. A. R„
have given sanction to this view so
strongly that further speculation on the
vagaries of the public palate is un
necessary.
But th* young women who are tempt
ing masculine Atlanta within the por
| tals of the old Capital City club build
. ng have discovered something quite a.'
profound.
Atlanta men eat far more than At
lanta women. Atlanta men Insist upon
m at, and barbecued meat at that;
while women run to salads and various
things gent t ally known as “sweets.''
Atlanta men like highly seasoned food;
Ailtnta women the reverse.
There you have a recipe for a suc
cessful Atlanta restaurant, ail hut one
thing - chicken pie
Atlanta Is mad on the subject of
chicken pie. This the proprietresses of
I the Capital city Case have discovered.
| and Janie, the "black mammy" who
generally superinb nds, bosses, oversees
and runs the cuisine of the case, has
abandoned the higher arts of cooking
and spends her time concocting chick
j en pie.
"They all like chicken pie." said the
h chief proprietress. "We can't seem to
i give them enough ot it. 1 am not just
sure where its vogue originated, but 1
l know now that you have to have it if
! you are to run a successful restau
| rant.
Even the women who go In for sal
ads and the more ephemeral foods will
! desert the best Waldorf manufactured
I for our chicken pie. It i« really staple
lin Atlanta."
However, one old tradition has gone
by the boards. Atlanta has shaken the
suapbean and the widely advertised
turnip green—shaken them cold.
There was a time, according to an
cients. when the cowpea was relish that
never failed to evoke enthusiasm but
Atlanta lias gone through and beyond
• that day Its more aristocratic kins
, man. the French pen has superseded it
The Capital City Case authorities say
that Atlanta likes French peas and as
■ | paragus
But Southern cooking is still appre
ciated In Atlanta. " continued the wom
,j an wtm was authorized to talk "The
■ nun especially like it They want their
i meats barbecued and highly seasoned.
J | and they demand biscuit.’ "

Path Leads to Resort. Says
Leader in Men and Religion
Movement.
_ (
"These cheap theatrical companies
are just one of the recognized feeders
for the 'system.' The advertisements
for chorus girls, like some of the ad
vertisements for stenographers and
other girl workers, are often designed
simpl* to ge. the gir's. The paths all
lead to the same end —the resort."
That is the opinion of Marion M.
Jackson, whose work in the present
campaign of the Men and Religion For
ward Movement is attracting so much
attention. Air. Jackson was discussing
the case of Vessie Bostwick, Estelle
Reed and "Buster" Reed, three girls
found in the employment of the Em
pire Comedy Company, a five-cent
show In n Whitehall street motion pic
ture theater. While he had made no
investigation of these particular cases,
Mr. Jackson did not hesitate to declare
the theatrical company’ dodges a part
of the "game."
“The records of the Federal prison
in th<* suburbs of Atlanta will show one
case in point," continued Mr. Jackson.
"There is a man serving a term there
now for working this theatrical agency
game. He lured an Atlanta girl to
Tampa, Fla., under pretext of giving
her employment as a chorus girl. She
landed where most ot them land, but it
happened that a man with a heart met
her and saved her. She was brought
home and the "theatrical agent' con
victed of "white slavery." "
Recorder Broyles heard the case ’
against W. F. Swaringen. manager of '
the Empire Comedy Company, and dis. !
missed 1;. as Swaringen was merely
charged with conducting an agency
without a license. The manager showed
that he was operating a company anti
not conducting an agency, and upon
statements that the two Reed girls
were not under sixteen years old the
recorder was forced to dismiss the case
and set the manager and girls free.
The Reed girls were summoned as
witnesses to the charge tiiat Swarin
gen was employing girls under sixteen.
Officer H B Posey, of the children's
court, swore that the girls' mother had
asked him to look after her daughters,
and had shown him records to prove
that the girls were but fourteen and
fifteen years old. Notwithstanding this, j
Mrs Reed stated before the recorder
tl-.a" the gills were aged sixteen and
si venteen. respectively, and denied
that she had ever talked with Officer:
Posey.
The Bostwick girl, who is only four
teen yea s old. was no given actual
employment, although she had been
promised a place In the chorus by

Strikebreakers Operate Lines
in City—Aiken Interurban Is
Still Tied Up.
Al Gt STA. GA., Sept. 24.—The Au
gusta-Aiken Railway and Electric Cor
poration is running cars on its city di
vision this afternoon tinder heavy
guard. From three to five policemen
are placed on each car. and, although
large crowds of strike sympathizers
gather at street corners and hoot and
jeer the strike-breaking motormen and
conductors, no attempt lias been made
to harm the men or take them off the
ears.
Trouble is expected tonight if an at
tempt is made to operate cars, for
strikers and sympathizers have threat
ened lo take off any “scab” motormen
and conductors operating after dark.
Mayor Thomas Barrett lias promised
the company ample protection.
No Cars Before Noon.
Up to noon today not a wheel had
turned on the city lines or the Aiken
interurban division since 11 o'clock yes
terday morning, when conductors and
moto: men went on strike.
There is absolutely chance for
any of the Aiken c irs to run, for Gov
ernor Cole L. Blease will give no pro
tection and the line passes through a
South Carolina cotton mill district be
tween here and Aiken, where all of the
sympathy is with the men.
Sentiment here is divided, but all
agree that it will be a duel to the finish
between the strikers and the company.

Georgia Senator Defends Bill
as Upholding Our Honor.
Hits Roosevelt.
Senator Hoke Smith declared trnJav
that the Panama canal bill requ
all vessels in foreign trade to pa , ',.. *
for passing through the canal, does no
conflict with the treaty with Great Bru
ain. and he does not see how am su
rious complications with other coun
tries can arise from the recent passa--.
of the bill. The senator pays iL
praise to .Congressman Adamson. .'
Georgia, who was one of the writers of
the canal bill.
Senator Smith gave special attention
to the Panama bill when it was bi for
the senate, as he had been requested bv
Congressman Adamson, chairman ofthL
commerce committee of the house to
take charge of the bill in the senate
and protect the valuable measure
which the house had placed in the bill
from the effort made by the -enate
committee to defeat the Demot ■ itic
bill by senate amendments
Senator Smith leaves today for the
West, where he will engage In a speak
ing tour for Woodrow Wilson. In <i|=.
cussing the Panama canal measur. he
said:
Can't See Serious Clash.
”1 do not see how any serious com
plications with Great Britain can gtor
out of the Panama canal bill as it final
ly passed. The original bill as it rain
from the house was largely the crea
tion of Congressman Adamson of our
own state, and he is entitled to great
credit for his admirable work upon this
measure.
"The bill requires all vessels engaged
in foreign trade, whether American
owned or owned by citizens of other
countries, to pay tolls for passing
through the canal. It only permits
■United States coastwise vessels to pass
through the canal free. Conceding that
our treaty with Great BritaJn and with
other countries required the same treat
ment to citizens of other countries
which is accorded to citizens of th-
United States owning vessels passing
through the canal. I consider that the
bill meets the requirements of our
t reaties.
"The coastwise trade of the United
States is limited to vessels made in the
United States and owned by citizens of
the United States. In this respect the
policy of the United States does not
differ from that of nearly all other
countries. Coastwise trade is usual.'
regarded as a domestic proposition
from which citizens of foreign coun
tries owning vessels are excluded."
Scores Taft and T. R
Tn discussing the national campaign
Senator Smith scored both Taft and
Roosevelt for what lie termed their
alignment with the special Interests. He
said:
"My confidence in the election of
Wilson is due to the strength of his
cause. One-half of the Republican pal -
ly is thoroughly tired of a rule which a
combination of machine politicians and
tlie agents of special interests hate
been giving the county.
, "President Taft. aft°r promising re
lief against the present excessive ta-iff
taxation, approved ilie Payne-Aldrich
bill, which was worse than the Dingley
bill that preceded it. He put above the
interstate commerce commission a
court whose action lias been on- con
tinuous effort to suppress work by the
interstate commission in behalf of t: ”
people.
“I don't believe President Taft van
poll over one-half of the rfornial Re
publican vote.
Sees Failure For Teddy.
“Colonel Roosevelt, on the oth“
hand, has not only sought to appeal f

In this last effort he is doomed to
