CAh'DLER CLOSES CLUBSWM Acting Mayor Will Issue Order Despite Resistance of Locker Organization Members. With a number of councilmen and lawyers fighting to delay the closing of the four outlawed locker clubs. Acting Mayor John S. Candler has announced that he will approve the closing order pf council tomorrow and that the clubs will be immediately closed. The R. M. Rose Company, a whole sale whisky house of Chattanooga, has filed a suit against the Moose club, de claring it to be mismanaged, and ask ing for the appointment of a receiver. In view of this.new evidence, it is ex pected that the police committee will recommend that this club be closed also, for ft is one of a number of clubs the committee has not yet made a report on. All Report Not Followed. It lias developed that the police com mittee did not recommend that all the clubs be closed which Police Chief Beavers recommended be closed. Coun cilman Claude Mason, who fought the committee’s report, said he thought all the chief’s recommendations should have been followed or ail should have been ignored. Chief Beavers recommended that the Owls, the T. M. A., the Metropolitan, the Theatrical, the Bees. Knights «f thi Mystic Ark, the Georgia Athletic and the Southern clubs be closed. The po lice committee recommended and the council ordered closed only the Knights of the Mystic Ark. Bees, Southern and Georgia Athletic clubs. Aiderman J. B. Everett is secretary of the Metropoli tan club. The attorneys for these clubs ordered closed—Jackson fr Gober. Hill & Wright, and Morris. Mack and Lou Field —are preparing to file suits for injunc tions against the cltj' to prevent the closing of the clubs. More Authority Obtained All these clubs now have injunctions against the city because the council re fused to grant them permits to open. The supreme court has been asked to rule on these injunctions, but has not yet done so. Meanwhile the city has obtained additional authority from the legislature, which permits council to arbitrarily close any locker club. And with this authority, Acting Mayor Can dler ha” announced that council’s order be Immediately enforced. City Attorney Mayson has advised that the order be delayed until the court’s decision. There will be another fight in coun cil, however, If the police committee recommends the closing of any more clubs. Councilman Aldine Chambers in sists that the committee should make public the evidence upon which it rec ommends the closing of any club. He is backed by a strong minority in an effort to save the clubs. Besides a number of clubs which have not been investigated, the police committee has held up the applications of the Press and Central clubs. FROM COLUMBUS TO COLUMBIA. COLUMBUS.

M’NAUGHTON DOES NOT THINK HE WILL BE HANGED NOV. 22 SAVANNAH, k GA.. Oi l. 23.—Sen tenced to be hanged on November 22 for the murder of Fred Flanders three years ago. Dr. W. J. McNaughton has returned from Swainsboro, cheerful and confident, that he will not hang. Ac cording to Sheriff T. A. Fields, of Em anuel county, who accompanied the condemned man back to Savannah, where he will be confined in the Chat ham county jail until the date set for the execution, Dr. McNaughton laughed at the sentence pronounced by the judge of the superior court of Emanuel county at Swainsboro. Governor Brown is said to have prac tically announced that Dr. McNaughton shall not hang until Mrs. Mattie Flan ders. the wife of the man said to have been murdered, and jointly indicted with Dr. McNaughton, has also been given a trial. According to Sheriff Fields. Mrs. Flanders has been prom ised another postponement until the term of the court succeeding the one now in session. She is said, however, to desire an immediate trial. Her case is scheduled for hearing next week. MAN CONFESSES HE KILLED WIFE WHILE IN DRUNKEN RAGE BRIDGEPORT. CONN.. Oct. 28. Mystery surrounding the murder of a. young woman after she had been taken from her home in this city into the country near Stratford in an automo bile was partially cleared today when Joseph Bunonona, one of the four men arrested shortly afteh the woman had been shot to death, confessed that lie had killed her. Bunonona declared that the slain woman was his wife and that he killed her while in a drunken rage. The first theory of the police was that the young woman, who was known variously as Rost Bunnis and Rose White, had been killed to prevent her revealing the inner workings of a white slave system having headquarters in Chicago and New York and extending all over the country, and they are still working on this theory, despite the prisoner's confession. They say that she came here recently from Chicago and that there is a possibility that site was followed here for the purpose of assassination. MAIL CLERK ORATOR ROUTS PROSECUTORS WITH HIS ORATION The silver tongue and oratorical man ners of M hitfield R. Boyd, once a. mail clerk on the Atlanta. Birmingham and Atlantic railway, threaten to demoral ize the prosecuting attorneys in the United States court. For the third time the same negro is being tried for stealing from registered packages. Twice the government prosecutors have finished their case and rested, se cure in the knowledge that a perfect case had been made against the negro. Twice he has risen and caused an ac quittal with his eloquence. Boyd is unruffled today, apparently confident that no matter what the jury may do' beforehand his own limpid streams of touching words will change their hearts to putty and cause them to believe him innocent. TWO WOMEN FIGHT ROBBERS FIERCELY, BUT LOSE HANDBAGS CHICAGO, Oct. 23.—Attacked with in a few feet of their homes at almost the same moment, Mrs. Frances A. Winslow, whose husband is a Board of Trade operator, and Mrs. John R. Brice engaged in desperate hand-to hand conflicts with robbers to sav« their valuables. Both women were finally compelled to release their hand bags containing watches and money. Their screams attracted a large ,-iowcl. some in auto mobil's ho aided the police in a vain search lot the bandits. T. 8. TO GET INTO GIMM FINISH Colonel, at Home. Loses Fret fulness and Improves With Surprising Rapidity. OYSTER BAY. N. Y.. Oct. 23.—Coto nei Roosevelt show ed so great improve ment today that his personal physician. Dr. Scurry L. Terrell, expressed the opinion that the Progressive candidate would be able to take a leading part in the wind-up of the campaign. After a nine-hour sleep, the colonel awoke shortly after 7 o’clock this mot n ing and asked for a hearty breakfast. "I feel great” announced the ex president. "I know I’ll get along fine, now that I am home.” The fretfulness that characterized the colonel's stay in Metcy hospital fol lowing his being shot by John Schrank has not asserted itself during the con finement at home. The Progressive leader feels now that patience and absolute rest and quirt are what he needs. The morning papers were brought to him soon after breakfast and he pe rused them eagerly. Then ho read a little from his favorite book. “Hak lient’s Voyages." and summoned his secretary for the purpose of dictating part of the speech he is to deliver at Madison Square Garden on October 30. but this was broken into by doctors when they came to make their exami nation. No Visitors Permitted. Announcement was made at Saga more Hill today that no one other than the colonel’s doctors, his nurses ami the family would be admitted to the I sick room for at least a week. This decision came after the colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt talked the matter over. He was for receiving the reporters, or at least having bulletins as to his con dition issued from Ills home, but Mrs. Roosevelt overruled him. and all re ports as to tiie health of Roosevelt will ' be given out from the Progressive head i quarters. The colonel spent tile greater part of ; the morning sitting up in bed, and his • physicians will most likely permit him • to sit up in his big armchair on Fri- 1 ,iav ’ Neither Gets LaFollette’s Vote I.A CRUSSE. (5 18.. Oct. 3t>. Senator Robert M. LaFoliette in a speech here last night declared that he would not vote for Roosevelt, Taft or Wilson. He compared the suppression of competition through the growth of trusts to a huge cancer, the treatment of which requires great skill. "It is no Job for a 'Bull Moose.' ' said Senator LaFoliette. ‘ and, judging by what has hapijened in the last four years, it doesn’t seem to be a job for an amiable, easy-going man. A fellow over in New Jersey has been running a hospital with pretty good success, but has not treated cancer. "1 propose to pursue an independent course. I will not vote for any of these three men." Senator LaFoliette said that he still believed In a protective ]H»liey. bin be lieved it Should be gauged on th* Ixisls of the real difference between the cost of production here and abroad TRAMP STEAMER SINKS IN GULF: SIX DROWNED CORPUS CHRISTI. TEXAS. Oct. 23. The tramp steamship Nicaragua, which sailed from Tampico, Mexico. October 2 for Port Arthur. Texas, was caught In a storm October 16 and sunk off Padre Island. 60 miles south of Corpus Christi. Captain Echevctna and six of the crew were saved by the Po-t Aratfl. sas life-saving crew. Six of the < reA ' were drowned. / EGGS PROMISE TO GO TO 50 GENTS PER DOZEN Moulting Season Causes Hens to Stop Laying. Resulting in Noticeable Shortage. Unless Atlanta hens start lay ing more very- soon, the price of eggs promises i to go as high as 50 cents a dozen, where iit was for short, time during the past spring. Fresh country eggs are non bringing 2.5 and 2ri cents wholesale, ae. cording to grade, and 32 to 35 cents re tail. The situation is daily growing mote serious, inasmuch as most hens arc non in the moulting stale and are lay ing practically no eggs. "I have 50 hens and have trouble act ing one egg from them dally," de clared a local commission merchant this afternoon, and a retail grocer as j serted that he had 100 and averaged i two o' three eggs. Poultry Shortage. Too. The same short market exists in freed poultry. Dressed hens are scarce and the c< i-imisi'ion houses are getting 18 to 20 cents a pound, and the retail gro <■«•.- are getting 22 1-2 to 25 cents, the I- •■•!• price being so the larger fowls < '<’d storage eggs ate said to be sell ing for 23 to 25 cents a dozen, and 7,000 ;ascs to be stored in the only place of ■ it,.- kind in Atlanta, the Atlantic Ice Imd Coal Corporation cold storage p’ant. There are 360 eggs to a case, and the total in the above eases is therefore 2,520.0n0 eggs. A dealer de ! dared that rhould these eggs be thrust I suddenly upon the ma ke; the price of eggs would drop perceptibly, but that th-, drop would be only temporary. Scarcity of dens. Po duymen say there is a great jshor’age of lay ing hens throughout the ' entire country. The wet spring was I very bad fm the production of young cl lek ns. Pullets for winter layers are very >•.•arce. and poultrymen who have sought to buy them to stock their I plants have had to pay very high prices | for them. The crop of old hens retained for fur ther egg production has been disap pointing. Hens were late in moulting, and the scraggly feathered flocks have refused to resume their laying. Poul trymen are busily engaged tn feeding their hens and pullets ground bone and othe egg-producing nostrums. but their efforts have met with little suc cess. Eggs are selling in some of the East ern markets nt 55 and 60 cents a dozen and egg dealers predict that Eastern prices will soon go to 75 and 80 cents. Poultrymen Losing Money. That is about the limit expected by egg producers, as people will refuse to pay a higher ptice. Poultrymen declare they arc losing money, even at present high prices, for it takes now on an average of ten hens to produce one egg a day. With ail kinds of chicken feed selling at 2 cents to 2 1-2 cents a pound, to say nothing of the trouble of earing for the flocks, producers say there is little profit coining their way. A little later I in tlic season when the hens have re ' cov red from their moult, and the short | crop of pullets begin laying, the poul trymen expect a little better profits. ELECTRIC COMPETITION PROBABLE AT WAYCROSS WAYCROSS, GA.. Oct. 23.—J. H. and I*. A. Anderson, of Mississippi, and George W.

PRISON WARDENS GO UNARMED AMONG 900 PRISONERS Revolutionary changes in the meth ods of treating prisoners inaugurated at the Federal penitentiary are attract ing widespread attention today. They have been introduced to make the big prison a great reform institution in stead of a vast grave for blighted lives. IVarden W. H. Moyer and Deputy Warden W. C. Hawk, men whose, sym pathy with the 900 prisoners has ex tended far beyond the official capacity, have been quietly working on prison reform and following are some of the things that are seen in vogue today that were undreamed of a few years ago: Abandonment of the practice of shav ing heads of prisoners, giving the "si lence" at table, and the “face-to-the wall’’ treatment on the arrival of visi tors: abolition of stripes (after the present supply of suits is exhausted) and the humiliating "lock step,” In troduction of baseball and other games for full holiday Saturday, setting-up exercises Saturday mornings and an hour of exercise each day; smoking privilege extended and a neyyspaper started: bathing twice a week instead of once; separation of the races at meals: great improvement In the tuber culosis camp and more attention to the sick in general; more amusements for the prisoners, such as dramatic per formances by traveling talent; greater encouragement of invention, art. music, and other handiwork of the prisoners. New Clothing Provided. These are but a few- of the things that the government’s colony enjoy at the Federal prison. Every thing possi ble is done to make the men forget their past lives and to turn them out at the expiration of their sentences re formed citizens worthy of the privi leges of society. To this end the gov ernment does another thing. It pro vides each prisoner on leaving the in stitution with a new outfit of clothing, a railroad ticket home and a new flve dollar bill. If he doesn’t take up life anew and turn his face to the sunshine, then the government does not hold It self at fault. In fact, the life of the prisoners is so nearly ideal that he visitor Invariably comments that nine-tenths of the In mates are better off than they would ever have been outside. For Instance, the man of talent need only apply him self to have the most pleasant sort of time. If he is a musician, he can get a "life berth" in the orchestra, and be obliged to do no other service; or If he happens to be an artist and can make himself useful with brush or pen, he is given that opportunity: or If he Is of an inventive turn, he only has to ask for materials to work with that he may EARTHQUAKE SHOCK HALTS MARRIAGE OF MACON YOUNG FOLK MACON, GA., Oct. 23.—An earth quake shock at 8:14 o’clock last night was felt throughout Bibb county. It caused much uneasiness, but no alarm. In this city on North Highlands, the highest part of Macon, the tremor was most perceptible. Window panes were broken and clocks fell from the man tels. The court house clock was dam aged by the shaking and this morning was fifteen minutes behind time. The wedding of Miss Minnie Ham mock and Ray A. Stable was in prog ress at the home of Rev. T. F. Callaway, 1541 Second street, and much excite ment was caused among the guests, es pecially’ when a. large vase fell from a table and smashed on the floor. The minister was in the middle of the cere mony. w hich was begun over when the confusion was subsided. < 'ouncil meeting had just concluded when the shock was felt, and Bridges Smith, city clerk, facetiously wrote his minutes: “Upon the motion of the city hall, council adjourned.” Reports frotn this section of the state are that the shock was generally felt but that no damage was done. WHITE ROCK LAYS 260 EGGS IN ELEVEN MONTHS MOUNTAIN GROVE. MO.. Oct. 28.

All good Grocer* sell it or will get it for you. carry out the designs that he has planned in his mind. Each Man Has Work. Tlte Federal prison business works on the principle of the proverbial great wheel and its so many cogs. Each man has a niche to fill and the work of the officials is to see that he fills It and fits it. An Interesting principle of economics comes in here and the war den and his deputy take full advantage of it. Convict No. 2888 (they’ don’t go by names, by the way) was found good for nothing in particular until he start ed sketching. He had never tried it before, but his aptitude was such that he has now completed a aeries of six scenes after the Belasco theater, New York. He has had his handiwork placed prominently in the prison’s auditorium, where its plays are presented. Then the officials found a man who was good for nothing In particular but to make soap. A little $25 shack was built outside and Convict 3689 now, makes all the soap used in the plac<». and effects a saving oT about $5 a weak on that item. Bankers Study Finance. Then several Inventors are busy on things the world may hear about la,ter; former bank officials are busy studying out problems of economics and finance; merchants are plying their trade inside as handlers of supplies; skilled work men are making tools for the use of the government; stone cutters are fashion ing queer shapes out of Stone Mountain granite for use in the great adminis tration and “cell block" addition to tile Federal property; carpenters are hew ing' useful things out of wood that the government buys as raw material; molders a.nd blacksmiths and divers other personages representing nearly’ every profession and business are busy with their assigned and favorite task*. Warden* Are Unarmed. One thing that the visitor notices par ticularly is the respect that the pris oners have for the warden and the deputy warden. Told that the governor of Wyoming, a prison reformer, once said he was not afraid to go entirely unarmed among the most desperate of his state's prisoners. Deputy Warden Hawk declared that neither he nor Warden Moyer ever cairled a. g-un and that their life-term prisoners, some of them murderers, were the most peace able of all the prisoners. Former inmates of the local prison often write back their appreciation of good treatment received, and one of them expressed a unique sentiment re cently when he said; "The prisoners behind the bars are not there because they should be separated from the pub lic, but because they have been appre hended. There are two great divisions of the people, the caught and the un caught. Men in prisons are In the former class and men who are not are in the latter."
