1 FORTY WHITEHALL
OIL TRUST ATTORNEY
BARRED FROM COURT
FOR ACCUSING JUDGE
NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—A squabble be
tween opposing counsel, during which
charges were made against Commissioner
A. L Jacobs, caused a postponement to
day until October 3 in the controversy
between Standard Oil and the Waters-
Pierce Company.
The trouble ended in Commissioner Ja
cobs barring Colonel Robert W. Stewart,
counsel for the Standard Oil Company,
from further participation, saying he
would forcibly eject him from the room
unless he left at once.
The wrangle began when Samuel Un
termyer, the Waters-Pierce counsel, re
called Richard C. Veit, secretary of the
Standard Oil Company, of New York, to
the stand. Stewart objected to certain
questions, and Vntermyer said he should
not be allowed to appear as counsel, as
he was financially interested in the
Standard Oil Company, and was there
fore a party to the suit.
Stewart retorted htat H. N. Fordyce,
of the counsel for the Waters-Pierce Com
pany, was also interested in that com
pany. He then exclaimed:
"I understand Commissioner Jacobs is
unable to make any ruling in this case
that would prove unsatisfactory to Mr.
Untermyer.”
The commissioner then ordered Colonel
Stewart to leave.
RENO JUDGE SOUNDLY

should be criminally prosecuted.”

BERNHARDT RAPS
MILITANT WOMEN
j
Believes There Are Better Pur-'
suits Than Politics for Wield
ing “Divine Influence.”
LONDON. Sept. 26.—Women and poli
tics formed the subject of an interview
with Sarah Bernhardt upon her arrival
in London. The actress makes an inter
esting comparison of the temper of men
and women, and discourages the suf
fragists on the ground that there is a
nobler opening for feminine activity in
art. music and literature. She said:
“The temper of men differs much from
that of women. The latter are charm
ing, but they do not create any com
pact enthusiasm in an audience. Men are
chiefly responsible for enthusiastic au
diences and it is the same thing in poli
tics. Voting does not mean real poli
tics and cabinets and ' parliaments are
better without women.
“Art, literature and drama are living
and passionate, and that is where women
are needed at their finest. The modern
woman is an increasing power all over
the world and there are many openings
where she might wield a divine influence.
At one time men confined that influence
too much to the home; It is a glory often,
but was frequently an unmeaning sub
jugation. Women were too restricted in
the past century, but now they are hap
pily emancipating
“1 am prejudiced for art. it is true,
because politics offers nothing worth
W’hile to the nature of woman. The vote,
yes; that might well be allowed women,
for it is really ridiculous to see a great
artiste debarred ftom voting, while a
man W’ho knows nothing above sweeping
a staircase is allowed the franchise.”
CITIZENS OF CONYERS, GA.,
GIVE $25 TO WILSON FUND
A $25 contribution to the Wilson
campaign fund in Georgia was received
by The Georgian today. It came in
the form of a check drawn on the Bank
of Rockdale, at Conyers, Ga.. and with
out any accompanying .note. At the
bottom of the check was this simple
statement: “Contributed by a few’ citi
zens of Conyers, Ga.”
The check will be forw’arded to the
Wilson committee in Atlanta.
USE OF CALOMEL
PRACTICALLY STOPPED
Dangerous Drug Giving Way For Safer,
More Reliable Remedy.
Hundreds of people in this vicinity
alone have stopped the use of danger
ous calomel when their liver is acting
slowly, and take Dodson’s Liver Tone
instead.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is always safe
and has none of the bad after-effects
which so often follow’ the use of calo
mel. It Is a pieasant-tasting vegetable
liquid that starts the liver gently and
surely, and relieves constipation and
biliousness and causes no restriction
of habit or diet.
Many preparations have sprung up
that imitate the claims made for Dod
son’s Liver Tone, but remember Dod
son's Liver Tone is the tried and tested
remedy that has proven such a good
medicine and is so satisfactory to every
user—is the reason these imitations are
on the market.
Dodson’s Liver Tone can not hurt
any one and if it fails to do all that is
claimed for it all Atlanta druggists who
sell it, will give your money back with
a smile.

“MUTT AND JEFF” ARRIVE
AT THE ATLANTA TOMORROW
Looking down the line of past produc
tions of cartoon plays, there is one name
that looms up as the producer of practi
cally all the successful ones. It's no se
cret. Gus Hill has picked ail of the win
ners in that particular class of plays.
“Mutt and Jeff.” although still young, has
the record of them all. This has been a
season of a great number of successful
productions—New’ York has a dozen hits
—unfortunately there are so many that
the patronage is not sufficient to make
all of the deserving ones pay. This did
not prove the case when "Mutt and Jeff"
was at the Grand opera house or the Man
hattan opera house. New York, where it
walked away with the record business of
the year. Among so many, “Mutt and
Jeff" just simply loomed up as the one
conspicuous success and caught the pop
ular fancy along with most of the loose
change. “Mutt and Jeff” with their en
tire family of singers, dancers and fun
makers come to the Atlanta for two
nights and matinee, commencing tomor
row.
“ROSE MAID” WILL BE
BIG EVENT NEXT WEEK
"The Rose Maid,” Worba and Lues
cher's latest operatic success which broke
all records for large audiences at the
Globe theater. New York city, is described
as an Immense spectacle as W’ell as a ro
mantic light opera of the modern school.
One of the most heartily applauded scenes
of this Vienesse work is the brilliant re
view of the cavalry of all nations in the
second act. Unmounted horsemen and
horsewomen of the various countries ap
pear in native costumes and perform a
lively drill to a tuneful galop that is one
of the opera’s whistling hits. Werba and
Luescher send "The Rose Maid” to the
Atlanta Monday, Tuesday and Wednes
day, while it is still at the height of its
popularity and while the tuneful music is
still freeh. Seats were put on sale today
and Monday night is sure to be the big
society night.
LYRIC AUDIENCES ARE
INTERESTED IN "GOOSE GIRL”
That the day of the romantic drama is
not yet passed is evidenced by the suc
cess this week at the Lyric of The Goose
Girl.” The play is pure romance of the
kind, associated with the days of chivalry
and Its principal characters are kings and
queens and princesses.
THE GRAND IS PLAYING
TO CROWDED HOUSES DAILY
Interest In the Grand is growing in evi
dence every day. The famous thea
ter has come back with one mighty leap.
Under the skillful direction of Jake Wells,
piloted by Hugh Cardoza, wonders have
been worked and the Grand Is back in
the running
The bill this week has served to crowd
the big theater at all performances. It
would be utterly impossible to accommo
date all w’ho have been seated in any
other theater in Atlanta during the week.
"More Sinned Against Than Usual" is
the headliner and the local theater goers
have seen It ahead of some of the larger
cities. It is a clever affair, a satire on the
old fashioned melodrama. It has a cast
of type characters and all are excellently
handled. The stage is set on the stage
and the effect Is original and decidedly in
teresting.
The great Frosini, accordionist unusual,
is another big hit and Elida Morris, the
pretty comedienne, has won a personal hit
with her new’ songs and dances.
The biggest act that has been brought
to Atlanta, Joseph Hart's "An Opening
Night,” with 25 people in the cast and
three complete sets of scenery, will be
next week’s headline attraction. Because
of the time taken up by the playlet, there
will be five other selected numbers to
complete the program. There has not
been in all vaudeville's history a greater
success’ than this number. It is full of
surprises and interest, and w’ill probably
fill the Grand as never the house has been
crowded since Maude Adams played
"Peter Pan” there some years ago.
"THE LITTLE TENDERFOOT" WILL
VISIT THE LYRIC NEXT WEEK
Wltat is said to be an exceedingly w’ell
written and constructed play, "The Little
Tenderfoot,” will be the attraction at the
Lyric next week. It holds the attention
of the spectators in a tight grip and never
lets go from the first rise of the curtain
to its final fall. The story is intensely
human, with a sidelight that is bright
and obtrusive.
UNCLE SAM IS IN NEED
OF A MESSENGER BOY
FOR WEATHER OFFICE
' The weather man needs a messenger
boy, and as Uncle Sam allows him
S3O a month for the pay of one, the job
should be attractive to some Atlanta
lad between sixteen and eighteen y ears
of age.
The weather man can not do like the
ordinary office manager and put an ad
vertisement in the want columns of the
papers or hang out a “Boy Wanted”
sign and then take the most likely look,
ing lad that shows up. Uncle Sam re
quires a certain amount of red tape, so,
on October 23, the district secretary of
the civil service commission will hold
an examination which will Include
tests on spelling, letter writing, pen
manship and arithmetic. All applica
tions for the examination must be filed
by October 10.

HEJECTEDSUITDR
SHOOTS HIMSELF
Athens Young Man Tries to
End Life at Girl’s Door—She
Loved Another.
ATHENS, GA.. Sept. 26.—Preston
Arthur, a well known young man of
Athens, today is at the point of death
as the result of a self-inflicted pistol
wound. He shot himself in front of the
door of the girl who an hour before
had refused to marry him. Before he
was jilted he told friends that If she
did not accept him he would commit
suicide. The girl—-Miss Grace McKin
non—rejected Arthur's proposal because
sue loved another —Gerdlne Phelps.
Both Arthur and Phelps had pro
posed to Miss McKinnon. Each knew
that the other loved her and had asked
her to be his wife. She had told both
that she would give them her answer
last night. The two young men went
to the McKinnon home to learn her
decision. She accepted Phelps. He
remained at the house, while Arthur
went down-town. He played pool for
an hour. Then he returned to the Mc-
Kinnon home, where he shot him
self. He was carried into the house,
where the girl who had rejected him
assisted in dressing his wound.
Girl's Story of Affair.
Miss McKinnon's, version of the af
fair follows:
“Preston and Gerdine came to my
home last night and. as had formerly
been agreed between them, requested
that I make decision between them.
My father had often objected to the
constant attention of both, and lie, too,
thought that I should decide. When 1
chose Gerdine, Preston at once left my
home and went to town. He later re
turned and told me good-bye. I did not
for a minute think that he was contem
plating such a rash deed, but merely
thought that he meant he would not
call again. He had been gone just a
short time when some one told me that
a man was lying near my home, either
drunk or dead. My uncle went out and
picked him up and brought him in the
house, and I at once recognized him
as Preston.”
On reaching the house, Arthur ex
claimed to Miss McKinnon:
"Do you love me?”
When Miss McKinnon replied in the
affirmative, Arthur said:
"Why didn’t you tell me this before,
and this thing would never have hap
pened 7”
