Y., Oct. 2.—Con gressman William Sulzer loomed on the political horizon today as the almost certain selection as gubernatorial nom inee of the Democratic delegates to the convention in session here. The Sulzer sentiment, heretofore con fined mostly to Sulver’s personal fol lowing and to th'- anti-Tammany fac tions. began to sweep everything before it late yesterday, and when county leaders who had been wavering be tw c n one candidate and another agreed to throw their support to Sulzer, it seemed from a count of delegates prom ised to Sulzer that he would go through a winner on the second or third bal lot. Sulzer early today gave out the fol lowing statement: "1 believe I shall win. 1 am still fighting for an open convention, a fail field and no favors. If the delegates v ite in favor of the sentiment prevail ing in their districts. I have no fear and sb di have no fault to find." It was reported that Charles F. Mur phy; Tammany leader, after a night spent in a fruitless effort to swing the big delegations into line for Dix, an nounced that he would remain loyal to the governor and vote the New York delegation for him. Murphy feels that he owes Dix .his support, and further more he js nourishing the seemingly barren hope that by repeatedly ballot ing" for lb-- governor he might cause a deadlock, -d.irli .might la- finally broken in favor?of Dix. 1 sipiti reinahi loyal to Dix," is the statement vlm phy is said io have made to one of the big party leaders, who udged him to forsake the governor. "1 do ibis because I feel Dix is a good man for the place, and. secondly be i tiise he looks to Tammany for sup port. and he won’t find Tammany want ing.

Y., Proprietors Dead Auto Racer Won His Fame on Dixie Tracks BRUCE-BROWN FEARLESS “I'm not afraid," said David Bruce- Brown before the last Grand Prize race at Savannah. "1 never was timid. What is there to be afraid of? Driving fast is just like driving slow, after you get the knack and providing yon are strong. Os course there always is the other-fellow, and then there are tires. But 1 don’t mind tires if I have a little room to handle the ear." So spoke Biuce-Brown before the start of the race that gave him his second consecutive victory in the Grand Prize. Less than a year later he was killed while taking a practice turn around the Grand Prize course at Milwaukee. • The fatal accident occurred yesterday afternoon. Bruce-Brown had just reached Milwaukee and had taken out the Fiat, in which lie raced at Savan nah so successfully last fall, for a trial spin. He had just set a new record for the track when on the so-called "grave yard turn," a rear tire blew out, and the car, going at tremendous speed, swerved. The course is narrow at this point and there was scant room to straighten out the plunging machine. In the merest fraction of a second It had spun over, throwing Bruce-Brown and his mechanician. Tony Scudalari, into a nearby field, fatally injuring both. Bruce-Brown was well known over the entire South. All of his famous vic tories were won in Dixie. He first came into prominence when he smashed the amateur mark for a mile straightaway, covering the distance in 33 3-5 seconds COMPELLED TO SHARE HONEYMOON JOURNEY EXPENSES.

Then Finds There Is No Place for Her. Judge Andrew Calhoun has an ele phant on his hands. He found the weight so hard to car ry comfort;; bit today that he appealed to Governor Brown to help him get rid of it. A white woman, of middle age, was convicted of a misdemeanor In the judge’s court recently, and lie sentenced her to twelve months in the eountj chaingang. Not long after she was sentenced, the chaingang authorities informed the judge that it would work a great hard ship and humiliation upon the woman to keep her in the gang, because she was the only white woman under sen tence to it. and to keep her at all it would be necessary to associate het with negro women, and the authorities felt sure his honor would not like to see that done. Judge Calhoun then called up the county jail, to see if she might be kept there during the remainder of het term, but the jail authorities informed him that such a disposition of the matter was quite impossible, as they had no room for her. I oday the judge called on the gov ernor, and asked him to pardon the woman, as the only way out of the awk ward situation. "1 never had such an elephant on my hands before.' said Judge Calhoun. "Unless the governor will come to my rescue I declare I do not know what I shall do. The only ray of light 1 see is through executive clemency I” I he judge placed the case squarely before the governor, hut the governor would not say. right off the reel, what disposition he would make of it. ’PARISIAN BUTTERFLY IS COMING WITH RINGLING BROS. SHOW ' 'I he Human Butterfly Act." the won- | derful I- renvb aerial spectacle which originated in Paris last winter is to be (seen in this city with Ringling Brothers’ I circus It is the most beautiful and the most daring high-air performance ever I s s e P, 11 America, tl cost the management of the circus more money than was ever paid for a single act. I lie I y-Bell sisters, the three most j beautiful women before the public, are the originators of th*- act. The* are the ones who are presenting it in this country. It i s in evert* way different from the aerial acts seen in the past. The three girls ar*- suspended from th** dome of the tent i ~-f means of thread-like cords of steel. I'o these they cling merely bv their teeth Through the medium of invisible mechan ism above them they ar t.ir-de to circle, | dart and fly through spare with the i grace and skill of birds, while a balterj of I calcium and electric spot lights play upon ( their long silken robes and wings of spun glass with streams of fantastic colors. The trained animal features are one of the wonders of this year’s program. There is a new elephant act in which three herds are seen at one time in three rings There are pigs that skip the rope and plav on musical instruments* zebras, llamas'and camels that do remarkable things in one I big act: dogs that originate acts for themselves, and a donkey that rides a velocipede. Another big act of this kind is pre sented by Captain Hurley and his troupes of trained seals, the very latest and j grandest achievement of ail the animal trainers that ever lived. It is wholly un like tlie seal and sealion acts of the past. As jugglers, acrobats, gymnasts and bal ancers these strange creatures from the Northern seas are vastly more skillful than any human circus performer that ever breathed. They play tennis, using their fins for racquets: tl>e> juggle flaming brands with superhuman skill; thev toss balls high in the air and catch them on their noses: they walk tight ropes, dis charge firearms and ride horses. There is an entirely new parade and a I milion-dollar menagerie to excite the won wer of visitors. The big circus will be seen in Atlanta on Monday. October 7.

BOARD MAI GET PAVING PROBLEM Public Works Committee Not Expected to Let Peachtree Road Asphalt Bids Alone. Unless a special meeting of the public works committee of the Fulton county commission is called before Thursday th? full board will be called upon to let th? bld for the material forth? proposed Peachtree road paving from Buckhead to the county line. Especial interest Is attached to the board’s action since charges have been made that the Barber Asphalt Company, of Philadelphia, the asphalt trust, said to be the favored bidder, has quoted Fulton county double prices on Bermuda asphalt. Tull <’. Waters, chairman of the sub committee. is on rec ord-as opposed to let ting the bid to the Barber Company at th? price quoted. S3B per ton. as against $25.50 per ton quoted by the International As phalt Company and $21.50 quoted by the Standard Oil Company for artificial as phalt. It is understood that members of the committee practically entered into a verbal contract with the Barber Company for asphalt at the price quoted and this will have to be taken into consideration by the members of th? commission when the subject is under discussion. Th? regular monthly board meeting, scheduled for today, was postponed on ac count of the election. The commissioners will meet Thursday. It Is not believed that the public works committeemen will get together before the regular meeting NEGRO OWES HIS LIFE TO STRIKE; HE SLEEPS ON TRAINLESS TRACK There is one person today who is thankful for the Georgia railroad strike. He is John Wise, a negro, who was found at an early hour lying asleep across a track in the Georgia road yards. He vidently had been there for several hours.

COURT ATTENDANTS FUMING; FORCED TO CLIMB STEEP STAIRS Fat lawyeiJ!, prosperous business men, protesting witnesses and unlucky attendants connected with the civil branches of the Fulton superior court and city court of Atlanta were -forced to return to the habits of childhood when the elevator in the old city hall, which is now being used for a court building, was put out of commis sion by order of the elevator insurance com pany. The building is four stories high, and on each floor a judge is sitting. In consequence, n steady stream of per spiring and angry humanity is passing up and down the steep stairs. Many of the lawyers who never take any other exercise than climbing in and out of automobiles w* re forced to ascend the equivalent of a little mountain. Clients and cases suffered, for by the time the attorneys had reached the floor to which they were aspiring, tem per and prudence had been thrown to the winds. Women with little children would get half-way to the top floor, where city court is in session, and stop there ex hausted. unable to go further. Even the august Judges were forced to climb.
