All the prices are not mentioned—but you may judge that this movement means hundreds of dollars saved to the housekeepers of Atlanta. It is a putting-in-order of stocks—odd pieces, pieces that for one reason or another we can not or will not reorder, have had their prices rather recklessly reduced. Because it is a time when most people have to buy an odd piece or so, has not deterred us. It has rather spurred us on so as to making com ing here the only sensible and economic thing to do. And, what kind of furniture is it? It is the only kind that this store will sell— good furniture— the kind that is worth every penny of its former price. W hat an opportunity this is now!

BOTH CONFIDENT IN MAYOR BATTLE Chambers Promises to Raise Veil on Woodward’s Cam paigners Tonight. Confining their campaigns almost solely to vigorous attacks on each other through newspaper advertisements, botlt candidates for the mayoralty nom ination, James G. Woodward and Aldine t'bambers. sat in their campaign head quarters today and claimed that they would be victorious at the polls next Tuesday. James G. Woodward said that the contest was a landslide. Many callers were in evidence around his head quarters, and he declared that he had seen more men who said that they voted for Chambers in the first pri mary but would vote for him now than he had seen Chambers supporters. Mr. Woodward said this election was too serious a matter for him to enter any mudslinging contest. "The issue is honest, popular gov ernment against incompetent, ring poli ties," he said. Aldine Chambers said this morning that he would raise the veil that ob scures Woodward’s campaigners at a mass meeting at 201 Peters street to night. in the First ward. He said that he was going to show where Mr. Wood ward’s campaign funds were coming from. “Atlanta's moral reputation is at stake.” he asserted.

CONFESSED TAKER OF BRIBES TO “TELL ALL;” ACCUSED TREMBLING COLUMBUS, OHIO, Oct. 10—Con sternation reigned today in the ranks of the legislators and lobbyists under In dictment in connection with the legis lature bribery eases. This came, with the announcement by the state’s attor neys that a special session of the grand Jury will be called next week to hear the confession of Dr. George B. Nye. Pike county representative, who has Pleaded guilty to one of the six in dictments charging him with solicit ing bribes while a member of the leg islature. Nye, who has been promised im munity if he tells all he knows on the stand, is charged with having placed information in the hands of the state’s attorneys putting them in a position to make sure work of the prosecution of many of the legislators against whom charges are pending. He brings many more persons, both officials and others, into the legislative bribery dragnet thrown out two years ago. The new turn in the bribery probe is in the direction of men and big inter ests high up, who created the condi tions in the legislature to which the members fell victims. It is said these men will be hauled before the crim inal courts as well as the legislators whom they used as their tools. There is to be a general accusation of the methods of big business to secure and prevent legislation at pleasure. A number of indictments are also be ing contemplated charging perjury against a numbefr of witnesses who tes tified in the graft cases. Are you searching for a position?
