GEORGIA PRISON
MODEL FOR lOi
Officials of Northern State
Visit Convict Camps Here
for Regulation Ideas.
Governor B. T. Carroll, of lowa, ac
companied by former Supreme Court
Justice G. S. Robinson and Dr, M. Ban.
nister, of the same state, called upon
Governor Brown and the prison com
mission of Georgia today.
The lowa party is touring the South
studying prison conditions, .with a view
to recommending various changes and
reforms in lowa.
All are members of the state board of
control of lowa The governor is ex
officio chairman. This body has the
direction of all prison affairs within
the commonwealth.
Discussing their visit to the South,
Governor Carroll said:
"We have visited a number of South
ern states, generally to study a partic
ular phase of prison life and control
in each.
"Here in Georgia, for instance, we are
looking into the matter of roads con
structed by convicts: We have heard
good reports of Georgia in that connec
tion.
To See Road Camps.
“We shall not visit the prison farm,
perhaps, as we wish to visit as many
road camps as we can. We desire
to be able when we return to lowa
to render an intelligent report, and we
expect the legislature to provide a
model system of handling convicts,
made up of the best we can gather
from the states we visit.
"Georgia has had its convicts on its
roads long enough, we feel, for us to
find out how the scheme works."
The visitors spent a short time with
the governor, who welcomed them
most cordially to Georgia.
The prison commission entered into
considerable detail, explaining Georgia's
method of handling its convicts.
This afternoon the lowa party will be
taken to visit the Donaldson road camp,
near Atlanta.

FEIN CARS GO ORT
FOLLOWING RIOTS
Augusta City Council Appeals
to Company to Arbitrate
Street Railway Strike.
AUGUSTA, GA., Oct. B.—Very few
cars are being operated today on the
Augusta lines of the Augusta-Aiken
Railway and Electric Corporation, fol
lowing rioting last night, when con
ductors and motormen on two belt line
cars were attacked and driven from the
cars after being beaten and shot at.
City council has passed a second res
olution calling on the company to arbi
trate the street railway strike.
About 8:30 o'clock last night a Monte
Sano line car, returning to the city,
was waved down by two men at Gwin
nett. near Fifteenth street. As the car
stopped a signal was given and 30 or
40 men rushed up. The conductor and
motorman were dragged from the car
and whipped. Many shots were fired
toward the fleeing carmen, who ran as
soon ns released by the mob. A few
minutes later a second car was held up
at the same place. The attacks were
reported to the police and Lieutenant
Hatcher, with a squad of men, hurried
to the scene. 1. G. Hartley and R. M.
Strickland were arrested on suspicion,
but later released.
Inhabitants of that section of the city
stated to the police that they had heard
the explosion of torpedoes all afternoon
and supposed the shots to be a contin
uation of the torpedo explosions. A
stray shot entered the home of Pa
trolman Newman. The officer was on
duty at the time.

"The world never saw the equal of

It on the hairs, let remain for a few min

"Plain pyroxin applied to eyebrows with
