tain telegrams could not be produced •
in court because they have been de-j
atroyed
Judge Anderson asked the defense to
waive this protracted examination be-
< ause it simply w is preliminary evi
dence to form the basis of direct evi
dence This the defense refused to do.
Senator Kern continued to make
lengthy cross-examinations. Judge An
derson repeatedly interrupted Senator
Kern and urged him to be brief. Final
ly In exasperation the court said:
This is preliminary evidence that
could just as well be dispensed with
and I am not going to have much more
time wasted on it."

LASHING IN COURT
Mrs Lillian Petit, the young woman
I who recently horsewhipped C. R
1 Reeves, who says he is a private de
| tective. appeared in city criminal court
I today and said that her defense would
> be that Reeves was acting In ko illegal
| capacity w hen he provoked her.
I According to the young woman’s
story. Reeves was employed iry her
husband to get evidence against her
upon which a divorce suit could be
hinged. Under Georgia laws such an
action is illegal.
Reeves, it is understood, told his at
torneys that he wanted an officer with
him the entire time he was in court
when the case is called tomorrow, be- :
cause he feared a second whipping.

D Ellis to Attorney Roy Dorsey in
second division of superior court tn
<:ay after Dorsey's client. Mrs. Masie
Watkins Let. had obtained a divorce
from Harry Joseph Lee, an automo
bile salesman.
"From the testimony given to this
jury,” continued the judge, "it looks
as though something ought to be done
to this man. I am not much in favor
of letting husbands go with mere free- j
dom from their wives. That is exactly
the thing they want "
Mrs. Lee. who was restored her
maiden name Watkins, had testified
that l.ee admitted spending $250 a
night in catousals. She asserted that
her remonstrances went for naught.

IDr 1.. G. Hmdman. of Commerce; F.
| R. Mann, of Jackson, and E 1.. Peek, of

quarterly meeting of the board here
yesterday. Announcement was made
by Mr. Calvin that he would not seek

by expert accountants under the direc
tion of a committee composed of J. H.

I Mr Calvin today said of the charges:
"On September 30 four members of
the station staff, Messis. Lykes.
Sttlikey, Temple and Kimbrough, wrote
me a letter that unless 1 at once sent
my resignation to the board of di
rectors, to lake effect January 1. 1913,
they would prefer charges against me.
To this I replied that, being sconscious
of duty faithfully performed. I did not
fear an investigation and invited thorn
to proceed to ctrry out their threatened
action. I heard nothing further of the
matter until two day- before the board
meeting, when I learned the nature of
the < barges that would be brought
against me.
"In the board milting yejterday, I
invited a full investigation into my
administration of the station. Incident
ally I mentioned that l ist February or
Ma’ch I wrote t'hancolloi Barrow that
I would not offer for re-election when
my present term expires. My deter
mination to retire next summer, there

ATLANTA AVE. GETS
CITY WATER MAIN
DESPITE PROTEST
When the property owners on At
lanta avenue, a street on which there
are but few houses, petitioned tiie wa
ter board yesterday afternoon for a
main, Mayor Winn adrfionished the
board that the city should not spend
its money in laying pipe on vacant
streets when many thickly settled
streets still were without water con
nections.
It was called to the attention of the
board that Atlanta avenue has sewers,
curbing and sidewalks. These were
buiit on the assessment plan. The bond
ordinance also provides that water
mains shall be laid in the street, so
the board ordered the main laid.
On the petition of the officers at
Fort McPherson, the board promised
to try to provide city water for the
fort.

A Furniture Sale
In Which You May Buy Odd Pieces of Hall, Bedroom
and Dining Room Furniture at Tremendous Reductions
>
I he list below tells but part of the good fortune that may be yours
tomorrow. 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.
What an opportunity this is now!
We have made no attempt at describing the manv pieces—we could
not. But here are the exact former prices and the prices 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 neyvspaper advertisements,
both candidates for the mayoralty nom
ination. James G. Woodward and Aldine
Chambers, 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
tics,” he said.
Aldine Chambers said this morning
that he would raise the veil that ob
scures Woodward’s campaigners at a
mass meeting at 291 Peters street to
night. in the First ward. He said that
he was going U» show where Mr. Wood
ward’s campaign funds were coming
from. |
"Atlanta’s moral reputation is at
stake,” he asserted.
CRYING OF CHILD IN
CHURCH AT MIDNIGHT
MYSTIFIES OFFICERS
—— \
The crying of a child in a church at 2
o’clock in the morning has furnished
the police with a mystery which has
them completely baffled.
A resident in the Francis apartments
at Peachtree and Ivy streets, saw a
horse and buggy hitched outside of the
Sacred Heart church shortly after mid
night and his curiosity was aroused.
Some time later lie heard a baby cry
ing in the church and called up the po
lice. Sergeant Luck and Patrolman
Peek entered the church, but found
nobody.
They left the horse and buggy where
it stood and two hours later it had dis
appeared. The police are wondering
what it was all about.
SAVES MOTHER BY
ATTACK WITH FORK
DEN\ ER, COLO., Oct. 10.—Stabbing
his mother's assailant in the leg with a
fork, four-year-old Marcy Marks saved
her from the attacks of a peddler. The
peddler, entering the kitchen and find
ing the mother alone with her baby in
arms and one small child, attempted to
embrace her. The boy, seeing his
mother attacked, rushed behind the
man and buried the tines of the fork
in the man's thigh, then ran, scream
ing, for help. The peddler escaped.

CONFESSED TAKER OF
BRIBES TO “TELL ALL;’’
ACCUSED TREMBLING
COLUMBUS, OHIO, Oct. 10—Con
sternation reigned today in tine ranks of
the legislators and lobbyists under in
dictment in connection with the legis
lature bribery cases. 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. Nve.
Pike county representative, wdio 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 al! 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 o£ the legislators against whom
charges are pending. He brings manv
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 perjure
against a number of witnesses who tes
tified in the graft cases.
