Roosevelt was s< neduied to ar rive during the morning on the Twen tieth Century Limited on the New York Central railroad, it was arranged that she should go directly to Mercy hos pital. Doctors To Decide About Operation. Whether the bullet will be removed from Colonel Roosevelts breast wil. probably be decided by the physicians today. Dr. .Jameson, the Milwaukee X-ray expert, who made the first plates of the colonel s wound, arrived in Chi cago last night. With the physicians who have been attending the colonel he made a careful comparison of the plates made yesterday morning after the pa tient had been taken to Mercy hos pital. It was discovered that the bul let had not shitted Its position since the first plates were made and this was considered a very fi»vorable sign by the doctor® Unleas the bullet causes irritation, operation for the time at least will be abandoned, and it is possible that Colo nel Rooeevelt may carry the bit of lead for the rest of his life. A« soon as the colonel was fully awake this morning he was given a sponge bath. After that he said he was hungry. The sleep and the bath, he said, both helped hie appetite "That last sleep I had and this hath have given me a craving for something more than I can get here." he told the nurse. "Rut If you'll Juel hurry some breakfast it will do for the time be ing.” Miss Fitzgerald ordered eggs, bacon tea and buttered toast for the colonel. At his direction, she increased the al lowance from two to three eggs. Prepares Ward For Wife's Coming. After liis breakfast Colonel Roosevelt dlt 'cted preparations that wei ■ mule fm the coming ol Mrs. Roosevelt. At 730 o’clock Blanche Welter, the nay nurse, came on The colonel asked liei to give most of her time to Mi- Roose velt's room, which adjoins his own. He sent 1. .J. Kumbalek, the male nursi who Is helping to care lor tiie colonel, out for certain articles that he thought would add to Mrs. Roose velts comfort. Dr John F. Golden arrived at the hospital shortly before X o'clock. lie was informed by I lie colonel that Mrs. Roosevelt must in no way be allowed to think that the wound was othei than slight. He wanted the physician lo in form her that the colonel was submit ting to quiet in his rooms only as a . matter of precaution and to satisfy his friends Dr. Terrell was already at the Ims ptlal. Dr. John R Murphy and Dr. Arthur Dean Bevan were late in ar riving. Dr. Murphy arrived at the hospital shortly aftei 8 o'clock and prepared for the consultation with the other doctors. Wants to Plunge Back Into Campaign. Already the confinement has begun to chafe the ex-president. As the doc tors took jiis temperature and pulse this morning lie chatted about the possibil ity of leaving the hospital tomorrow. The colonel wants to plunge into the campaign aagin. As his temperature was taken, the colonel chatted pleasantly with the in ternes who weie in the room. "His pulse is better than mine right now," said one of the internes after he left the room. The colonel, however, even in his anxiety lo leave th" hospital and re sume the campaign. did not long forget the coming of his wife "Ask the newspapei hoys to find out where Mrs. Rooscveit is." he requested. He was told that the train had just - reached Englewood and that Mrs. Roosevelt would be there in a few min utes.

He then underwent a clinical ex amination and returned to McCauley. After another hour's reading - , he again sought sleep. Dr John-B. Murphy, Dr Arthur Dean Bevan and Dr. Scurry L. Terrell ,seemed eminently satisfied with the patient's condition. When ho was examined at 10:30 o'clock his pulse was S 6, or 14 counts above normal, but it was strong I and steady. His temperature was 99.2. but three-fifths of a degree above nor mal. and his respiration was good. The indications were that the wound would heal normally, though antitoxin was administered to pretent possibility of lockjaw. It was this, It is believed, that caused the slight rise in temper ature. Colonel Proves Ideal Patient. All the surgeons, with the exception of Dr, Terrell, Colonel Roosevelt's per sonal physician, left the hospital early. They indicated strongly that there would i'e no necessity to probe for the bullet. With the single exception of a nerv ousness natural to ■■ man of Mr. Roosevelt's activity on being bedrid- | den. he proved a perfect patient 1 throughout the day. He submitted readily to all treatments and his onl.v i complaint ngainst the confinement of tlte hospital was by innuendo, wocu hi I suggested to Dr. Terrell that he thought an hour's drive in th, fresh ait would not be dangerous to his physical con dlition.

Woodward's ' day was done, but "Uncle Jim” launch- • ed forth with his old-time in . a race against Courtland S. Winn. Mayor Winn beat him by a big ma- I jo ity. Wi.en this campaign began things looked brighter for Mr. Woodward than they had for years. In his announce ment statement he asserted that a po litical ring was getting control of the vity and county governments and that one o‘‘ his opponents. Aldine Chambers, 'vvas the boss of it. He was the aggressor ail through the 1 campaign and although his opponents * made one of the most vigorous fights - Atlanta has ever seen. Woodward was picked the winner by the political , "douesters" from the beginning. "Uncle Jim" Woodward always has stood as the leader of the common peo ple. He probably is the most interest ing character in Atlanta. Without so cial prestige o-r money, he is powerful in polities. Though he has not run for every term of the mayoralty since his first race, lie has been actively Identi fied with politics in Atlanta for 25 y ea rs. Always Sees Voters Personally. Not an unusually strong speaker, "Uncle Jim" has campaigned for years by seeing the voters man to man. He has a. magnetic personality, a rugged character and an outspoken manner tpat ’is a nightmare to every other asiiiapt u> the mayoralty.

The president of the. ra-ilioad had been insisting on ' certain terms for many weeks. One ! day lie went, io the mayor's office to t".v and close up the matter. ilayor Woodward had grown impa tient at the delays. He listened to the railroad president's, stop once mo:e. Then stiikitig his disk witii his list and •isii’g from his seat, he declared: "This city is not a Nashville nor a Memphis. You don't nv n this town nor this council. You v>. id buiul this bridge according to Atlanta's terms." And right on the 'p.,t the ailroad president agreed to the terms. Victor Is 68 Years Old.

Hour Unit, Representing Actual Work. Would Take the Place of the Dollar. ■ Eugene V. Debs. Socialist candidate for president, declared last night, in his speech at the Auditorium, that when the Socialists represent the majority in the United Stites there will be no banks, stock brokers nor merchants. "The medium of exchange will be the hour unit,” he declared, "and no man will try to corner the supply of hour units, because more are constant ly made each day. Each hour unit will repn ent one hour of actual work, and can be exchanged for anything. "There will be no banks, for no money will be in circulation: no stock brok ers will be in existence, because no stocks will be sold: there will be no stores and merchants, because tiie dif ferent trades will deal directly with one another. "A man may obtain iii'»ro personai comfort than his neighbor by'working harder and getting enough hour units to purchase luxuries, but by - work only will lie be allowed to live in plenty. No man will try to corner any great staple, because, in the fir-t place, lie would not have enough hour units, and in Hie second place, the people, edu cated to Socialist standards, would not allow him. "No trusts, no monopolies—every thing sold for just what it is worth. That is wliat we offer Hie people; and the day is surely coming when they will accept it. "Even we do not know how many So cialists there are in the United States, because many of them vote for other candidates for president, because of I some present need.

(Advt.) ■——_______ , Don’t Be Fussy J About Eating Your Stomach Will Digest Any Kind of Food When Given the Proper Assistance. We are prone to fall into the error of singling out some article of food and soundly berating the fiend who first invented the dish. The habit grows with some people till almost all food is put on the blacklist. This is all wrong. What is required is a little assistance with those agencies upon which scien tific students for many years have set their seal of approval because they have become absolute facts. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets for all 'stomach dis orders are recognized: they have a fine record; they are rated reliable, de pendable and worthy of confidence just as t-be president of a big bank puts his O. K. on a depositor’s check. And so you can eat what you want, whateve you like, knowing welt that should in digestion. sour risings, gas formations, fermentations or any other stomach distress arise. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab lets in a few moments will put you ' ight. Coated tongue, bad breath, heart burn. belching, flatulency, bloat —all the symptoms of digestive troubles disap pear quickly when these tablets are used. They are not a cure for anything but dyspepsia and kindred complaints. But they have brought relief to more sufferers from digestive diseases than all the patent medicines and doctors' prescriptions put together. The stomach does the heaviest work of any of the bodily organs, yet it's the one we treat with the least regard. We eat too much of the wrong kind of food at any time. The patient stomach stands such treatment as long as it can and then it rebels. You get notice of the rebellion in the shape of the gases and pains caused by undigested, fe menting food. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold and recommended by all druggists at 50c a box. (Adv: I - I. The ATLANTA Tonight 8:15 TONIGHT 8:15 r Prices: Lower Floor. $1 and $1.50; Others 25c. 50c. 75c.
