J. H. James, Recent Candidate
for Railway Board, Wants
Prisoner to Confess.
John H. James, recent candidate for
railroad commissioner, acting in the
role of superior court juror inadver
tently gave Putsy Garey, a negro,
charged with burglarizing, a temporary
spite from trial in criminal division
today.
"This prisoner not only pawned the
matched involved in this ease, but he
was in the pawning business by the
o holesale.” shouted Solicitor Dorsey to
the jurymen holding aloft a handful of
pawn tickets.
'That’s right." agreed James, inter
rupting the trial and talking from the
jury box. “Why doesn't he plead guil
ty?”
For a minute the courtroom was si
lent and the judge astounded by the
unusual proceeding The prisoner’s
lawyer, quick to take advantage of the
point, moved that Judge Ellis declare
a mistrial. .
After several minutes of parley be
tween lawyers, the judge recognized the
technicality.

Congressman Gordon Lee talking to
a group of friends in Atlanta today,
discussed the subject of good roads,
from the national standpoint, most in
terestingly.
Among other things, Mr. Lee said:
“It is my opinion that congress, with
in a few years, will pass annually a
good roads appropriation bill, relatively
as heavy as the rivers and harbors bill,
and that the money under its pro
visions will be of far more benefit to
the masses of the people than the ap
propriations carried by the rivers and
harbors bill, as meritorious as many of
those appropriations are.
“I have the very great honor of be
ing a member of the special house com.
mission having under consideration the
entire subject of good roads. We will
meet in November, and enter exhaust
ively into the subject, particularly with
an eye to lending Federal aid in the
matter of road construction and their
indirect maintenance. The plan to have
the government lease, for rural mall
delivery purposes, such roads as are
kept to a high standard by local au
thorities, will enter into the Federal
scheme of things after some sort of
fashion, eventually. I think.
"The question of good roads is one of
the most pressing that congress has to
consider. The demand for good roads
is confined to no one section. It spreads
evenly from one end of the nation to
the other.
“Personally, I know of no finer way
to spend the people’s money—no surer,
safer, or saner wav to rivs them back
their own—than through the encour
agement of good roads construction.”
Barry Wright, of Floyd, former mem
ber of the house of representatives and
Democratic nominee for membership in
the next, is an Atlanta visitor today.
Mr. Wright is at present engaged in
the practice of law in Rome, with his
distinguished father. Seaborn Wright.
The younger Wright is an ardent sup
porter of Woodrow Wilson and has
made several speeches in his behalf.
The senior member of the firm is also
a Wilson man, but he is possessed of
many repressed Bull Moose sentiments
that threaten to break loose now and
then, regardless.
j Young Mr. Wright ways he hopes,
however, to keep his father perfectly
regular and shouting for Wilson, be
sternly frowning down any suspected
inclination upon his part to come to At
lanta tomorrow night and hear the
colonel orate to the multitude.
Governor Joseph M. Brown is fond
of young people, and lends usually i
most willing ear to their petitions.
He does not suspect that all the wis
dom of the ages is tucked snugly be
neath either bald heads or heads hoar}
with age.
Particularly is the governor inclined
to view with satisfaction the ancient
and honorable institution of matrimony,
fashioned in the days of man’s inno
cency. and perfected for the uplift and
betterment of the world.
The governor, as a man. doubtless
would be only too glad to further love's
young dream, now being indulged in b\
i a suitor for the hand of Thomas Edgar
I Stripling’s daughter. But he likely will
I not be able to help it along, if the only
I way he can do it is by pardoning Strip
ling.
The governor thinks that by and by,
perhaps, a further petrtion for Strip
ling’s pardon might be in order. Now,
however, he can see no reason to change
the opinion he formed when the case
came before him originally—ana opin
ion reached after long, careful, dis
criminating and exhaustive investiga
tion and consideration
The letter from Youngblood to the
governor, in which Stripling’s pardon
was sought, precipitated a deluge of
mall in the executive office—largely
from people of a sentimental turn of
mind, who saw in Youngblood’s letter a
note of pathos and genuine human in
terest that appealed tremendously.

FLATLAND AFLOAT
NEWEST LUXURY
Rich May Live as at Home
While Crossing Atlantic on
New Liner.
LIVERPOOL, Sept 27. Floating fiats
for millionaires are the latest luxury in
transatlantic travel, and the vessel on
which, it is understood, the provision
will be made is the new Cunarder Aqui
tania, which will be launched on the Clyde
about December and put in commission
in the spring or early summer of next
year.
The Aquitanfa will be the largest ves
sel flying the British flag, and probably
the largest in the world. "Probably"
because the Hamburg-American line has
another leviathan on the stocks which
is safd to be even bigger than the Im
perator. which rniw heads the list of the
world’s big ships.
Fashion in ocean travel changes pe
riodically, and the decision to build flats
on the Aquita'nia is said to be the out
come of a growing tendency among fam
ilies. especially English families, to live
on board exactly as they would at home.
Already there are in some of the Cu
narders a series of walled-off recesses
where it is possible for families to take
their meals by themselves. "Flatland
afloat" is simply an elaboration of this
system of private suites
Liverpool at present has no dock that
will be able comfortably to hold the
Aquitania, and the Mersey dock and
harbor board is hastening on the con
struction of the new Gladstone dock at
Seaforth, which is to be opened by the
king in July of next year. There will
be ample accommodation for the new
Cunarder in this dock, and the sugges
tion has been made that on the occa
sion of the royal visit the king should
enter it on one of the largest and latest
Atlantic liners.
In the absence of official confirmation,
it Is not unreasonable to suppose that the
vessel selected for this honor will be the
Aquitania.

SA6E TEA WIIC

Restore Faded and Gray
Hair to Natural C.OIOI
Dandruff Quickly
Removed.
There is nothing new about tin idea
of using Sage for restoring the color
of the hair. Our grandmothers kept
their hair dark, glossy and abundant
by the use of a simpb "Sage Tea.”
Whenever their hair fell out or took
on a dull, faded or streaked appearance,
they made a brew of Sage leaves, and
applied it to their hair with wonderful
ly beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort to
the old-time tiresome method of gath
ering the herbs and making the tea.
This is done by skillful chemists better
than we could do it ourselves; and all
we have to do is to call for the ready
made product, Wyeth's Sage and Sul
phur Hair Remedy, containing Sage In
the proper strength, with the addition
of Sulphur, another old-time scalp rem
ed v.
This preparation gives youthful col
or and beauty to the hair, and is one
of the best remedies you can use for
dandruff, dry. feverish, itching scalp,
and falling hair. Get a fifty cent bot
tle from your druggist today, and you
will be surprised at .the quick results
All druggists sell it, under guarantee
that the money will be refunded if the

Col. Perry’s New Uniform Arrives in Nine Boxes
10 POUNDS OF GOLD LACE
Lieutenant Colonel Jesse Perry, pri
vate and military secretary to the gov
ernor, is a happy man today!
His new uniform has arrived,
both full dress and fatigue, along with
his sword, and his pistol, and about ten
pounds of gold Jaee.
Leonard, the capltol porter of colored
persuasion, grabbed the various pack
ages away from the expressman before
that party was well inside the building
and bore them in triumph to the gov
ernor’s reception room, where Colonel
Perry was dispensing hospitality, pend
ing the executive’s arrival from his
home in Marietta.
Colonel Perry s uniform baffles de

lish and puts all form of rhetorical
grandeur strictly on the blink!

It came in nine boxes, the one con
taining the sword being five feet in
length.
"I don’t see how you is ter wear this
sword, cunnel." said Leonard, after the
power of articulation had returned to
his lips, "unless you hangs it round yer
neck! Hit will drag the ground sho.
es you fastens hit to that gold belly
band ! ”
After the colonel had donned his re
galia, the display was so loud that a
