rfOTEO CHEMISTS
HERE TALK ONLY
OF ROOSEVELT
Shooting Astounds the Famous
Scientists—Marvel at Prog
ress of South and Atlanta.
A big man with bushy black windows
and thick eyeglasses, held up an extra
Just off the press, while round him in
the lobby of the Piedmont hotel today
a score or more men in odd attire jos
tled each other and shouted in guttural
tones. The extra announced the shoot
ing of Theodore Roosevelt in Milwau
kee, and the gesticulating throng were
Germans, shocked beyond measure that
such a thing could occur. They talked
of nothing else for the first half-hour
at breakfast.
"Think what that in Germany would
mean,” said one. picking his English
words carefully. It I can not con
ceive."
They were visitors, were a part of a
trainload of 50 tourists who left New
York a month ago and have swung
clear round the continent from the Pa
cific coast to the gulf and up through
Birmingham to Atlanta. They are the
tourist party of the International Con
gress of Applied Chemistry, which met
in New York early in September.
There were a hundred who began the
tour, hut half of them have dropped
off And returned to their homes, or pur.
sued special journeys to some field In
which they were especially interested.
Foremost Chemists Here.
Such a flood of gutturals and con
sonants was never heard before when
the visitors found the service a bit
slow, for they were hungry. The man
agement of the Piedmont had not been
told of their coming, and it is no easy
matter to serve 50 extra breakfasts on
a moment's notice. But all were fed at
last and everybody was in much better
humor after that.
The scene in the rotunda was notable
for clothes and whiskers. There were
tourist outfits ranging from black som
breros to dinky little caps, from big
plaids and field glasses to frock coats
and high hats. And the German sen
tences that began at the dining room
door, wrapped twice around the lobby
and emptied the verb on the sidewalk,
made one fearful of tripping up and be
ing choked in a verbal labyrinth.
Dr. S. F. Stollberg. secretary of the
German consulate in Atlanta, was ear
ly on the ground to greet his com
patriots. Such a taking off of hats and
a bowing! The German is not satis
fied with a handshake. He places his
hand squarely on ton of his alpine lid.
raises it at least a foot, puts his heels
together after the military fashion and
bends his body from the waist like the
•first motion in the setting up exercises.
cAfter that he may shake hands, but not
before.
South Astounds Them.
Among the group of visitors are the
foremost minds in the whole chemlra.',
world. Germany excels in no science
more than In chemistry and the dele
gates to the congress are world-fa
mous authorities on various special
ties. In the South they are particular
ly interested In vegetable oils and the
principal object of their visit was to
see the plant of the Southern cotton oil
mills.
Dr. David P. Day, of Washington, Is
in charge of the party He is head of’
the department of petroleum and natu
ral gas of the mineral resources divi
sion of the geological survey of the
United States government, but ho
doesn't put all that on the hotel regis
ter. He Is remembered by Atlantans
ns the expert in charge of a govern
ment exhibit at the Atlanta exposition
of 1895.
"The visitors are astounded with the
resources of the South, said Dr. Day.]
"They believe it the richest field for
chemical manufacture in the world.
They are amazed at the resources loft
undeveloped. You have climate, min
erals. everything."
To See Big Plants.
The visitors are guests in Atlanta
of the Georgia section of the Ameri
can Chemical society and the Cham
ber of Commerce. President H M
Dumas and Secretary J. S. Brogdon
met the partv at breakfast, and Mr.
Brogdon's colie,ge German sounded al
most as fizzy as the real thing and got
over the plate with marked success.
Other members of the society, some of
them expert chemists from the various
manufactories and laboratories, were
in the reception comtnittet Dr. S. VV.
McCallie. state geologist, helped to
greet the tourists, and his handbook
on the mineral resources of Georgia
was distributed in the same envelope
with the chamber's monograph on At
lanta. a program booklet and cards to
the various clubs.
"Ein trink," explained the giver.
That must have meant a drink, for the
visitor bowed and smiled broadly and
immediately asked "where?"
Colonel W. L. Peel acted as chair
man of the entertainment committee,
and with Secretary Walter G. Cooper,
of the Chamber of Comtneiee, helped
make the tourists feel at home. An

diarrhoea, sore throat, or is full of cold,
give a teaspoonful of Syrup of Figs,
and in a few hours all the foul, consti
pated waste, undigested food and smr
bile will gently move on and out of its
little bowels without nausea, griping or
weakness, and yotf surely will have a
well, happy and smiling child again
shortly.
With Syrup of Figs you are not drug
ging your children, being composed en
tirely of luscious figs, senna and aro

they dearly love its delicious taste.
Mothers should always keep Syrup of
Figs handy. It is the only' stomach,
liver and bowel cleanser and regulator
needed. A little-given today will save
a sick child tomorrow.
Full directions for children of afl ages
and for grown-ups plainly printed on
the package.
Ask your druggist for the full name,
"Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna,”
prepared by the California Fig Syrup
Co. This is the delicious tasting, gen

JUDGE CROSSLAND TO
BE BURIED TOMORROW
IN ALBANY CEMETERY
ALBANY, GA., Oct. 15.—Thomas H.
Milner and Clayton Jones, both promi
nent members of<the Albany bar, are
among those mentioned today as the
probable successor of Judge David F.
I Crossland, of the Albany city court, who
died here yesterday' afternoon. Neither
of these men has made any statement as
to whether or not he will be a candidate
for the office. They will not discuss the
matter until after the funeral of Judge
Crossland, which takes place with inter
ment here tomorrow afternoon.
Judge Crossland died suddenly late in
the afternoon. In the morning he was
apparently as well as usual. Early in the
afternoon he complained of feeling ill,
but no alarming symptoms developed until
just a few moments before he expired.
Heart failure was the cause of his death.
Judge Crossland had been on the bench
of the city court of Albany for about ten
years, and was regarded as one of the
ablest jurists in south Georgia. He was
elected at the recent general election for
another term. He had served in the
legislature as representative from Dough
erty county, and was for a long time city
attorney of Albany-. He leaves a wife and
two children.
