Colonel Obediah Stevens, former commissioner of agricultural and rail road commissioner, now retired upon ■ ’j® ww? * Jami-5 E> TTEXCkr his well earned political laurels, visits the capitol now and then and flits hither and yon as of yore. In this end of the state the peo ple refer to Colo nel Obediah as "Uncle Obe,” but down in south Georgia, where he came from origin ally, and where he first began to sit up and take no- , tice of offices that might be vacated to his behoof and benefit, they can him "Uncle Tobe." "Uncle Obe" Is a statesman of re pression He moves in most mysterious ways his wonders to perform. When ever silence in the capitol assumes the aspect of a tangible thing, and nothing whatever may be heard—no sound, no ghostly echo, no—er—nothing—it Is the unfailing and unmistakable sign that “Uncle Obe” is coming, coming, com- I ing. and is very near at hand! Before "Uncle Obe" was in his teens, he had learned to walk on eggshell, and never crack either a shell or a smile. He enters the north wing of the cap itol as gently as a summer zephyr, and lie departs via the south wing, and no man knoweth whence he cometh or whither he goeth.' "Uncle Obe" is a human encyclope dia of Georgia political records and af filiations. Whatever you may have done, or whatever you may have left undone, as a politician active for the past twenty-odd years in the Georgia vineyard, flatter not yourself that any fraction of your gyrations has escaped the eagle eye of “Unde ohe" Stevens! He knows—it may be that only he, and you, and the Lord knows, to be sure; and that neither you nor the Lord is going to tell this side of Judg ment day! T'ncle Obe" is getting well along in years, but he still plays the game—not so strenuously as in the braver and younger days. as In secs it, hut—well, he continues to keep tab on persons and events, nevertheless! He never flits through the capitol— LAT THE THEATERS AL G.

The Bonita is a high-class. popular priced house, no coarse jokes are ever permftte.l. no suggestive performances I are tolerated, ami never have been Mr. B F Glenn, the manager, is an Atlanta man. and is well and favorably known He is always in attendance, and ladies and children attending this I hou.-e are assured of his special care 1 Advt. i flits is the only word that fits—without leaving the impression on reprirtorial minds that he has put something, somehow, somewhere, over during the flitting—sort of "slipped something to” somebody, as it were! But they never can tell exactly and precisely when, where, to whom, and how it was done. In the sleeves of his coat may be twenty-four packs—and his smile, it is child-like and bland! .Judge Edward Hines, of Milledgeville, the “eloquentest man in middle Geor bed him, had a run-in with the tax receiver of Baldwin county the other day. Judge Hines is a very conscientious man—particularly in some things—-and in returning his property, his house hold goods and chattels, he listed his pipe, the friend of his youth and the consolation of his maturing years, at 50 cents. The ad valorem tax collectible on a piece of property returned at 50 cents is about five mills, or one-half cent, but the judge didn’t care a hoot about that. He knew the state needed the money, and he was determined to be game! Tlie tax receiver was so impressed with Hines' patriotic act —nobody ever before had returned a pipe for taxation in Baldwin —that he made the mistake of suspecting that Hines might be the original Mr. Ezy Mark (such as tax re ceivers constantly are rushing around seeking whom they may devour), and he accordingly raised the pipe return to $1.50 and added SSOO to the value of the residence the judge also returned for taxation! Judge Hines, the "eloquentest man," etc., aforesaid, promptly went before that tax receiver, and made him a grand speech! He didn't kick on the SSOO addition to the house, particularly, but he wax ed sarcastic, satirical, argumentative, and scornful in respect of the pipe! He pictured the depravity and utter meanness of a tax receiver who would so outrageously abuse a tax payer’s pa tience as to tamper with his pipe dreams. He went at the offending offi cial hammer and tongs—at one point he grew pathetic and almost made the tax receiver weep! Eventually the hurricane of oratory ceased, and all again was calm around and about the tax receiver's office— for Hines had hied him hence! Then the tax receiver—he seems to be a wise man in his generation, after all. and despite his mistaking Judge Hines for Mr. Ezy Mark —shamefaced- ly got that old tax book out, and he chopped that SSOO off Hines’ residence, and left the oid pipe at $1.50! When Hines heard the news, he smiled, and said that was like throw ing old Br er Rabbit in the briar patch! Hats generally will be off to Neyle Colquitt, of Savannah, for rushing mad ly to the front, at the psychological moment, with those long lost Demo cratic presidential electors. They are needed immediately in the governor’s office, in ordeb that the ex ecutive may comply with the law in the matter of getting out the blanks with the names of the winners-to-be attached in due and ancient form! Around and about the state capitol they have been playing for days and days the merry—more or less—old game of "Electors. Electors, Who’s Got Them Electors!” The game was ceasing to he wildly hilarious however, as the last days for filing drew nigh, or. as John T. Boi feuillet would say. came on apace! Colquitt has saved the day. He will file the electors. I Im said. "1 won't." and Harris said, "I won’t," but Colquitt said. "I will” —and he will! Colquitt certainly has eased a mighty pain in many palpitating and distress ingly agitated hearts! One of the most common ailments that hard working people are afflicted with is lame back.

FINEST DENTAL WORK AT LOWEST PRICES There is no finer dental work done any when than by the Atlanta Dental Parlors, vet prices here are so low as to astonish those who have been pay ing the usual dentist's charges. This is due partly to an immense volume of practice that makes possi ble a very small profit on each indi vidual case, partly to the very fine, modern equipment and partly to the fact that this establishment wishes to make lasting friends of Its patients. Thousands of pleased patients are walking, talking advertisements for the Atlanta Dental Parlors. They would not send their friends here if they had been overcharged or had been given inferior service.

Sept. 25.—To daj M illiam H. Bell, a 19-year-old bank bookkeeper, Is held a prisoner follow ing his confession last' night to the theft of the $55,000 express package ’ that mysteriously disappeared from the First National bank a week ago and was as mysteriously returned on Mon day. Bell said he confessed for fear officers would suspect his brother and cause his arrest. ’ Bell confessed in the presence of Chief of Police Sanders, two Burns detectives and newspaper men that he conceived and carried through the theft. While talking. Bell showed plainly that he had been under a severe strain j and his eyes were red and swollen, although it had not been half an hour since he had made his first voluntary statement. In telling of the robbery, he stated that he made up a bogus package similar in appearance to the original and substituted it for the orig inal while in the bank. He carried the $55,000 in a suit case to his home in .a suburb of the city and kept it there from Tuesday night until Saturday night, when, conscious stricken, he re turned to the city and placed the valu able package on the rear steps of the bank building The package remained on the steps of the bank until discov ered by the bank janitor Monday morn ing. Detectives and the local chief of po lice continued working on the case aft. er the return of the money and were contemplating an early arrest when young Bel) went to the bank and con fessed to President F. C. Brent. He was immediately taken into cus tody and made the confession in de tail. The young man is of excellent family and bears a good reputation personally. He has no bad habits and did not owe a cent to any one. Why he took the money is explained even by him. u — '— LLL^J u- 1 Clogged-Up Liver Causes Headache It’s a foolish proceeding to suffer from con stipation, sick headache, biliousness, dizziness, indigestion ar ' kindred ail mentswhen( *.(TER’S LITTLE LIVER « PILLS will end all sa 1 : - JSBagrß vegetable.
