and Chambers will be a knife to knife
combat.
Woodward Must
Get 431 More Votes.
Al! the talk today is how the votes
of Johnston anti Brown will go in the
next primary.
The general opinion is that Brown
drew principally from Woodward's
strength and that Johnston drew prin
cipally from Chambers' strength.
Provided all tly supporters of Wood
ward and Chambers remain loyal in the
second primary, Woodu ird ' must get
431 votes out of the 1.3(13 combined
vott s of Brown and Johnston. Cham
bers must get 1.028 more votes to be
nominated.
Woodward carried his own ward, tin*
Third, by a good majority over all three
of his opponents He got yiti votes,
and -together the other three received
646.
Chambers Loses
His Own Precinct.
Chambers carried his home ward, the
Ninth, by a small majority, receiving
381 votes to 3,>4 for his three opponents
Chambers lost hi-- own voting precinct.
Woodward receiving 68 to his 51 votes.
The fight in the second primary will
continue OU the old lines, according to
leaders on both sides today, the Wood
ward faction denouncing Chambers as
the head of a political ring and the
Chambeis faction denouncing Wood
ward's personal conduct.
Practically every one of The Geor
gian’s early predictions yesterday were
proved. The wards in which it was
stated that Woodward was leading
Woodward led. Where it was stated
Chambeis was leading, Chambers led.

TURKISH PRIESTS
URGE HOLT W
Moslems Preaching Uprising
Against All Christendom.
Fanatics Busy.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 3. Through
| out Turkey priests of the Moslem faith
; arc preaching a holy war against all
■' Christendom. Fanatics are demanding of
the government that war be declared not
. onlj against the Balkan states, but
! against all Europe.
The Sheik I'l Islam, head of the Moham
medan priesthood, Is in dally consulta-
I tion with the Turkish ministry.
T he Turks are distributing inflammatory
■ circiflars throughout European Turkey,
urging all Turks who are old enough to
hear arms to rise up against the Chris
tians. Practically all the Christians
throughout the Balkans are members of
the Greek Catholic church.
Because of the danger from fanaticism
this is the most dangerous element yet In
| jected into the situation. There are fears
• of wholesale massacres of Christians In
• regions where the Turks are In control.
Russia Joins In
Peace Movement
LONDON. Oct. 3. FufllPi reports of
| hostilities in the Balkans reached Lon
| don today, but came without confirma
tion, as a strict (ensorship has been
established by Turkey and the other
governments involved.
<>ne of these reports stated that 60
armed Servians had crossed the front
ier into European Turkey, but were
chased back to their own soil by a
Turkish battalion after a sharp tight.
The Turks pursued the Servians to the
border and then retreated.
< >ne ray of hope, how ever, that was
cast upon the darkening clouds was
that Russia will join other Important
European powers In refusing to make a
war loan to any of the Balkan king
doms. This would leave Austria stand
ing alone .and the weight of pressure in
favor of peace and probably drive Aus
tria into the ranks of the countries who
are determined to avert war through
the medium of financial channels.
AH now depends upon Turkey’s an
swer to the joint ultimatum of the Bal
kan states demanding autonomy for
Macedonia, Albania, Old Servia and
Crete and other reforms in European
Turkey. Even should Turkey reply in
i the negative or refuse to reply at all to
this or a supplemental ultimatum to
follow later, no formal declaration of
war Is expected before the end of next
week.
There were further sharp declines on
the bourses today in consequence of
impending eventualities. Government
securities and industrial and railroad
slides were alike depressed.
Many Hurrying

CHICAGO, Oct. 3. — Many Servians

Lily Langtry, the ".Jersey Lily,’ - who is bnek in America
lor h vaudeville tour. She is preaching “picturesque and
cheerful” clothes for men.
Revival of Styles of Early 50’s
Embellished by Staggering
“Color Schemes.”
NEW YORK, Oct. 3. —Lily Langtry,
the Jersey Lily, is back in America,
after a lonely absence of six years, and
she is just as youthful as in the days
of yore. Perhaps she has discovered
the secret of eternal youth in her mot
to, "color and sunshine."
Mrs. Langtry says men are growing
wiser and will discard the old "conven
tional black” and somber browns and
grays for bright colors. Purples and
greens and yellows, even reds, she pre
dicts for fashions sartorial.
"I have gone so far as to organize a
club for the purpose of making men
wear picturesque and cheerful clothing.
The success of fancy dress balls is
proof that men are fond of bright col
ors and enjoy wearing them. Side
whiskers have returned, and the stock
and ruffled shirt are being worn," said
Mrs. Langtry.
Gotham “Beats Her to It,”
And lo! even as she spoke. Now York
has burst ifito a rainbow of tints. Hab
erdashers and tailors say the Jersey-
Lily was behind time with her advice,
that New York "beat her to it."
An expert strolled down the avenue
the other day and sauntered into Sher
ry's. the Waldorf, the Ritz, Plaza and
other spots of allurement to the ultra
fashionable male. What he saw in
some of those places, as afterward re
lated. certainly disputes the Jersey
Lily's vision of the somber gloom as
the American dresser. For instance,
nt Sherry's his attention was directed
to this:
Ihe man wore a shapely gray sack
suit, white waistcoat, white spats, gray
derby. There was a rolled collar of
broad lavender, crossed striped shirt,
again a great fold-over scarf of deep
purple, double barred with white
Vision in Black and White.
Quite fetching, what'.’
Nothing startled him very much at
the Waldorf. But when lie started
through the Ritz and entered the (Tarl
ton Hall there apepared a perfect vis
ion in black and white.
This study in contrasts was thusly
attired:
One-button cheviot saeque over a
single-breasted white knitted cloth
waistcoat: trousers of dark gray chev
iot, striped in black; black buttoned
calf shoes, topped with black high
crowned derby. Black scarf, with pear]
pin. black wangee stick, with flat ovai
sllve: head, bearing gold monogram.
The saeque was “cut to the figure,"
with slight drapety iti the back a re
vival of a style favored in the early
fifties and again fluting the seventies
An overcoat was of lightish blue mel
ton. with lighter l ine velvet collar and
turnback cuffs, double-breasted, short
to the knees, draped back and fiont.
with lapping cornets at the bottom
cured and displaying a blue and white
plaid lining
A Study in Brown.
The first high hat of autumn ap
pealed at tin Plaza during that satm
afternoon. With It was worn a dark
grey cheviot cutaway, two-button coal,
striped trousers, tan cloth top shoes,
smart coat with short waist line, curv
ed pockets well to the front, ova! but
tons of gray cheviot.
There was also a brown study, de
scribed like this:
Fine brown setge suit, i liampagne
silk shirt, silk tie. in a licit shade of
golden b:own. loos, cinnamon coat of
rough x'ool serge, raglan cut. with ki
mono sleeve, worn unbuttoned, topped
with a small, sniat i corded Soft ft It hat.
SEARCHINGSIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Despite the apparent enthusiasm with
which all Bull Mooses in Georgia joined
. in the welcome to Mr. Roosevelt when
recently by was [Un
“in our midst," it
may be stated as
a positive fact
that there still is *
•erious division jhjj
Inside the pro- Hr
gressive Republi-
can ranks in this a.
I Btate —a division |BF
that threatens to . r
lap well over lie- HF
(Olid election day, f
ami that must W
work to the for- ®
mer president’s
distinct disaiivan
tage in the ba 11 ..
loting.
There are, in-
deed, to all in- jamso e> tNTTxrrsr
tents and purposes, three separate Re
publican parties in Georgia—the Taft
ites and the two warring Bull Moose
. factions. For the-two so-called Roose
velt factions are as far apart as the
I poles.
Hither wing of the Roosevelt outfit
likely would prefer that Taft carry the
state—or poll the heaviest Republican
vote rather than see its immediate
, rival get away with the bacon.
The Woodrow Wilson people, need
less to add, view this distressing (?)
Roosevelt division of forces with satis
; faction.
It means that Republican chances in
’ Georgia have been reduced to a mini
mum, whereas a few weeks ago It
, looked as if Georgia might poll a heavy
Republican vote, and poll it more or
less solidly, at that!
The Roosevelt people have been
counting heavily in two congressional
districts the Seventh and the Ninth,
Compact and aggressively together,
they might have a chance in both. Di
vided against themselves, they will
have little or no chance to defeat the
Democrats.
And, from the Bull Moose stand
point. too, the pity of it is that there
seems no earthly probability that peace
may be patched up in such wise as to
insure a full Roosevelt vote on election
day.
Summing it all up. therefore, the
conclusion seems warranted that Wil
son stock has suffered no depression
because of Bull Moose activity in Geor
gia of late even including the visit of
the colonel!
William H. Bunveil, of Hancock
county, is an Atlanta visitor.
Mr. Burwell is engaged in an active
campaign for speaker of the next house
of representatives, and already' is en
tirely confident of victory—indeed Mr.
Burwell says he now has pledged more
than enough votes to elect.
Discussing the speakership race to
day. Mr. Burwell said:
“I have more than 100 votes that I
have been personally assured I may
depend upon. Os course, that is more
than enough to elect, but still not all I
shall get. There are twelve or fifteen
vot< s that are as yet non-committal,
and I am n asonably sure of my share
of them.
"I should like to be elected speaker
without opposition, if 1 might, it

Double Simultaneous Event on
Bill for Milwaukee Course
Today.
MILWAUKEE, WIS., Oct. 3.—After
working all night with steam rollers
and laborers with picks and shovels,
the course was in g*ood shape today,
except for the rain that fell this morn
ing, for the thirteen entrants who were
to compete for the Pabst trophy and
the Wisconsin challenge trophy. It was
estimated that 200,000 people, about the
same number that saw the Vanderbilt
cup race, lined the course.
The cars were lighter than those in
the Vanderbilt race, but the same speed
was expected. Spencer Wishart, in a
Mercer, was the favorite in the Pabst
event, and Endicott was expected to
win the Wisconsin trophy.
The races were to be run simultane
ously, starting at noon. There are five
entries in the cup race and eight con
tenders for the Pabst trophy.
Entries for the races are:

I number of my friends are confident

opposition to me will be withdrawn
before the house meets.
“It has been tny dearest ambition to

legislative career. I shall be deeply
grateful to those who help me achieve
that ambition.”
D. C. Matthews, known widely among
Georgia politicians and statesmen be
cause of his long connection with the
Kimball house in the capacity of room
clerk, has jumped the hotel game and
is now in the Southern dining car
service, running between Atlanta and
Birmingham.
Matthews' sweet and seraphic smile
will be missed behind the K. H. desk,
to be sure, but it doubtless will be
kept diligently at work in its new field
of endeavor. The owner has many
warm friends who wish him mighty
well, wherever he goes or whatever he
