POULTRY SHOW 15
WING BIG
mENDANCE
Exceptional Quality of Fowls
on Exhibition Is Creating
Wide Interest.
Crowds continue at the Georgia Poul
try Association’s show at the Audi
torium,-Armory—and they are steadily
growing bigger. The 10 cent admis
sion price, the Briarcliff farm show
ing of imported exhibition stock, the
Owen farm wonders, the unquestioned
class of, the exhibits, the fine weather
and the steadily increasing interest in
poultry have combined to assure the
success of the show.
Praise of the show' is being heard on
every side. L. L. Jones, head of the
poultry department at the University
of Georgia, after an exhaustive study
of.the speci'mens shown, expressed his
amazement at the excellence of the
birds exhibited. He voiced the senti
ment so often heard—that in class the
show is strictly “Madison Square.”
Another testimonial came from Sec
retary C. O. Harwell himself. “I be
lieve,” said Mr. Harwell, "that in ad
dition to showing the flnest stuff in
many classes ever showm in the South,
we unquestionably have more varieties
ever before seen at a Southern show’.
Compare the number of varieties shown
here with the number listed in the
Standard of Perfection and you will
note that there are few missing.”
It happens, however, that there are
many birds being shown that are not in
the standard, some that have been new -
ly placed there, and a few’ that are
virtuallly "obsolete.” Among them are
Rhode Island Whites, Blue Orpingtons,
Favorelles, Campines, Diamond Jubilee
Orpingtons, Partridge Plymouth Rocks,
White Runner ducks and the like.
One of the real sensations of the
show are the Blue Orpingtons shown by
Asa G. Candler, Jr. One of the star
birds of the collection was taken sick
yesterday and was removed from the
show, but three remain. The cock bird
is an especially fine specimen, as big
as a Black Orpington, but of a hand
some bluish color. All but one of Mr.
Candler’s Blue Orpingtons were bought
in England, as were his Diamond Ju
bilee Orpingtons and many of his
other birds.
Many Incubators Shown.
One of the most interesting features
of the present show has proved to be
the exhibition of incubators, brooders
and poultry appliances in general. The
chief exhibitors were H. G. Hastings &
Co,, Marbut & Minor, thd Southern
States Incubator and Brooder Co., the
Hightower Box and Tank Company,
and W. J. Speers, Southern agent for
Incubators, brooders and poultry appli
ances.
The Southern States Company, which
conducts a factory and a 5J)00-egg
hatchery at College Park, makes ail its
own appliances. Its 1913 model incu
bator, now on the market, contains a
number of improvements. For one thing
the fuel tank has been placed at one
end of the machine and the lamp at the
other. This brings the equipment with
in the approval of the underwriters as
sociation. A new system of ventilation
and moisture production has been pro
vided for. By a simple scheme pure air
is allowed to enter the machine and
circulate at all times. These machines
are made to burn oil, alcohol or gas.
An especial advantage is that, with the
aid of a “flash lamp” the eggs can be
tested w’ithout removing them from the
trays.
Marbut & Minor show’, as usual, a
complete line of Buckeye incubators
and brooders, as well as the Denning
w'hitewash pump and the Ideal auto
matic feeder.
New Features For 1913.
The Buckeye incubators have sev
eral improvements for their 1913 trade.
For one thing, the heating system—that
is, the boiler, the tank and the tubes—
is now being made of pure copper. As
it does not rust or corrode, it should
last indefinitely. A new scheme for
turning the eggs, for w’hich an addi
tional tray is provided, is a 1913 inno
vation. It makes possible the turning
of all the eggs in less than a minute.
The front Is now provided with a dou
ble .door in w’hich is a w’lndow. This
window can be covered with another
smaller door after hatching begins, so
that the newly hatched birds will not
crow’d to the front. The top is this
year provided with a ventilator to let
out the foul air, and the lamp is bet
ter made than ever before. The Buck
eye brooders are virtually unchanged
for the 1913 season.
W. J. Speers, of Atlanta, is again
showing the Cycle Hatcher Company’s
machines, which means the Philo sys
tem line. Neither the Cycle hatcher
nor the Cycle brooder, which have
•proved so satisfactory, have been
changed much for the 1913 season.
New Hover Is Shown.
A novelty shown in the Speer ex
hibit is the Oakes round hover, made
in Tipton, Ind. This machine has
many novel and attractive features—
; an easily removable top, W hich makes
cleaning easy; an easy method of re
moving the hover from the lamp box,
which also makes for easy cleaning; a
weather proof lamp box, a system that
insures uniform ' heat through the
•brooding chamber;, and a hydro-safety
burner, which does not impair insur
ance risks.
Still another novelty at the show is
the Sim Plest trap nest, made in At
lanta. This seems an excellent trap
and sitting n< 'st, and as the prise is
renkonable it should have a big sale

Council Censures Mayor for
Asking Military to Quell the
Car Strike Rioting.
•
JACKSONVILLE, FLA., Oct. 31.
Twelve companies of state troops are
now on guard in this city.
The officials of the Jacksonville Trac
tion Company say they will not arbi
trate, although asked to do so by the
city. The strikers declare they will not
give in under any consideration. At a
special meeting of the city council last
night the mayor was censured for ask
ing for troops, and Governor Gilchrist
was asked to recall the soldiers. No
trouble has occurred today.
The company officials say they will
run cars this afternoon. During the
morning not a car moved. Several cars
were stoned yesterday and three strike
breakers were severely beaten. There
was no trouble last night.
A business mass meeting has been
called for 3 o’clock this afternoon. To
day fully 5,000 persons have been con
gregated in Broad street.
The soldiers arrived here this morn
ing on a special train and patrols were
soon stationed on every street in the
downtown and factory districts. The
presence of the military has apparently
quelled the rioting.

feeding troughs and the like.

SAVES GREEK TERM
ON CITY CHAINGANG
Mike Tillis, a Greek, is much more
anxious to fight the Turks than he Is to
fight rocks with a pick as a city convict,
and that saved him from a chain gang
sentence today.
With a ticket In his pocket and head
ed for his old home In Greece to “fight
for his country,” Mike celebrated last
night, and was taken Into custody by
the police shortly before he was to
board a train. He explained that he
was merely celebrating his departure
for the scene of war.
“Judge Broyles, please let me go this
time. I want to get home and fight the
Turks My country needs me and I
must go," pleaded the Greek.
Judge Broyles w ished the Greeks and
other allies success in their war against
Turkey and imposed a small fine of
$5.75, which Tillis paid and hastened
away to the depot.
COL. R. N. HOLLAND
DEAD AT MARIETTA;
FORMER LEGISLATOR
MARIETTA, GA., Oct. 31.—Colonel R.
N. Holland died last night after a long ill
ness. He was for manj' years a promi
nent lawyer at Marietta, but gave up
practice a few years ago, when stricken
with paralysis. At one time he repre

also served a term as mayor of Marietta.
Colonel Holland is survived by his wife
and four children, William Tate Holland,
R. N. Holland, Jr., Philip Tate Holland
and Miss Mary’ Holland, all of Marietta.
The funeral was held this morning at 11

Surprising Skill Is Developed
by Physical Director Toepel’s
Fair Young Squads.
A few favored onlookers at the basket
ball practice games of the normal.de
partment of the Girls High school are
convinced today that man is soon going
to lose his crown in another of his
realms.
Some really surprising skill in a game
framed more for youths rough and dar
ing than maids gentle and fair Is being
displayed by the young women under
the tutelage of Dr. Theodore Toepel,
physical director of schools. And the
skill is well mixed with genuine pluck.
The first team is going to be chosen
soon from among the “boys" and “girls”
who are competing strenuously for the
coveted honors.
If the enthusiastic favor which basket
ball has met with shows anything, it
surely indicates that the clinging vine
type of girl is about completely out of
fashion at the Girls High.

Peachtree
Restaurant Man
Likes Club Menu.
Members of the Atlanta Athletic club
have been observing for some time a
young man who appears regularly in
the dining room for luncheon and din
ner. He always occupies the same ta
ble, and always orders liberally. But a
number of the members W’ho frequent
the case did not know him. They call
ed over the waiter last night to satisfy
their curiosity.
“Gentleman you're w’aiting on is pret
ty regular, isn’t he?" they asked.
“Yassir,” said the waiter. ‘He’s here
every meal time, suh, and he sho’ likes
good eatin’.”
“Who is he, Charley?” they asked.
“What does he do?”
“I disremember his name, suh,” said
Charley, “but he's de proprietor of one
of dem up-towm restaurants.”
And investigation proved that Char
ley was quite correct.
Possum Prizes
Ring Like Bride.
They say that a postage stamp sets
an example for success through tenac
ity by sticking to one thing until it
gets there, but there’s an opossum In
Marietta street which is equally per
tinacious in achieving its object. For
holding on, it has a bulldog beaten to a
frazzle.
Mr. Possum is one of a half-dozen
confined in a cage on the sidewalk in
front of a place w’here things to eat are
dispensed for a price. Early today Mr.
Possum hung his long and glossy tail
out of his cage. Some Idlers in passing
hung a steel harness ring over the kink
in the end of the tail and Mr. Possum
clamped onto It tightly.
Now the ring "was larger than the
meshes in the wire cage, and when Mr.
Possum tried to draw in his tall and
its prize for closer examination he
found It couldn’t be done. So he mere
ly held on.
He was holding on an hour later, two
hours later, three hours later—and the
chauffeurs and loafers In that block
began placing bets on whether or not
he would drop the ring and pull in his
tail. Up to the time of going to press
Mr. Possum still held the ring tightly
clamped in his prehensile and useful
aimenciugu.
Held on Insanity Writ,
Man Pleads Own Case
And Obtains Release
Valdosta Lawyer Is Liberated
From Jail on Habeas Corpus
Petition He Prepared.
VALDOSTA, GA., Oct. 31.—Colonel
Charles S. Morgan, a well knowm attor
ney, who was taken into custody a
week ago and confined in jail awaiting
a hearing on a charge of lunacy, was
given his liberty on a writ of habeas
corpus before Judge J. G. Cranford, of
the city court. He acted as his own
attorney and prepared the writ which
was heard by the judge.
Colonel Morgan alleged numerous
reasons as to why he was illegally de
tained. One of these was that three of
his relatives were not notified of the
action against him, as the law requires;
another that W. A. Rudd, w’ho swore
out the warrant for his detention, is
comparaltvely a stranger to him, and
had no opportunity to know whether
or not the defendant Is insane; that h 6
believes Rudd’s action was based on
hearsay, and that he was inspired by
parties prejudiced against the defend
ant, and that the swearing out of the
W’arrant for his arrest was not volun
tary on Rudd’s part. He also claimed
that the action against him was taken
without his know ledge, and that he was
arrested on the streets while going
about his business in a peaceable way.
It is understood that Colonel Mor
gan’s release from custody on the ha
beas corpus will not affect the hearing
in the ordinary's court as to his mental
condition, which is scheduled for next
Monday. Ordinary Simms is disquali
fied in the case and it is probable that
Judge Cranford will hear it.

WRIGHT UPHOLDS
INSUHANCE LAWS
Comptroller General Says Gov
ernor Will Have No Trouble
Enforcing Regulations.
Comptroller General William A.
Wright gave out a statement today con
cerning the new’ insurance law, in which
he seeks to set at rest whatever doubt
as to its constitutionality may exist in
the public mind.
The comptroller holds that the law’
is perfectly in accord with the consti
tution, and fits in exactly w’ith the pol
icy of the state for the past 25 years.
He takes the view that the alleged con
stitutional limit upon the expenses of
the insurance department does not con
flict with the law as it now stands—that
the comptroller's office Is entitled to so
many clerks, just as any other depart
ment may be given certain prescribed
help by legislative enactment.
Colonel Wright does not believe the
governor and the attorney general will
experience any difficulty In reconciling
the new law to the mandates of the
constitution. He says the Insurance
law is working wonders for reform in
insurance methods in Georgia, and he
hopes It may be permitted to stand un
molested and undisturbed by legal at
tacks.
Governor Brown, in order to assure
himself of the constitutionality of the
act, which had been questioned, re
ferred the matter not long ago to the
attorney general, and that official has
not yet given the governor an opinion.

MRS ‘PAT IN
FIGHT FDR CLUBS
Chief Stands by Former Re
port—No Glaring Evils Are
Found on Inspection.
A strong fight to save every locker
club from the ban of council will be
begun at the meeting of the police com
mittee this afternoon. Chairman W. G.
Humphrey and Chief of Police Beavers
will first make a report on their inspec
tion of all the locker clubs in the city
yesterday.
This fight is being led by Councilmen
Claude C. Mason, Aldine Chambers, Ai
derman John E. McClelland and others.
They are directing their attack on
Chairman Humphrey, of the police
committee, for, it Is said, it was prin
cipally through his influence that the
four clubs were recently banned by
council.
Stands By Report.
Declaring frankly that he had found
no evil conditions on his tour of every
club tn the city yesterday. Chief of Po
lice Beavers said today that he still
stands by his report against four of the
organizations. The ban on these four
was affirmed by the police committee
of city council.
Chief Beavers said that while he had
found no offensive conditions, such as
drunkenness or the selling of liquor to
w’omen, on his tour, he would say noth
ing as to the legal status of several of
the clubs. He said he had reported
against the clubs in the first instance
because they had defied the ctty and
that condition still existed.
‘‘Clubs Essential.”
Following his Investigation yooter
day. Chairman Humphrey said that the
real social locker clubs were essential
to the city’s growth. He said he meant
all clubs run for mutual benefit and not
for individual profit, and that he, too,
thought the majority of clubs in At
lanta were that sort.
But Chairman Humphrey has de
clared all along that he would never
consent to license any clubs that are
run Illegally, and that he was con
vinced several In Atlanta were run that
way.
Chief Beavers and Recorder Broyles
joined with Chairman Humphrey In de
claring that locker clubs were essential
to Atlanta’s life.
The members of the committee real
ize that their report must show that the
clubs are obeying the law In order to
get the approval of Acting Mayor Can
dler. That means that no more Sunday
drinks will be sold In Atlanta as long
as Aiderman Candler remains the city’s
chief executive.
Those who are fighting Chairman
Humphrey’s attitude on the locker
clubs declare that he has no right to
consider the clubs in executive sessions
of the police committee, barring even
members of council. They point out
that the law’ provides that the general
council shall be put In possession of all
evidence concerning locker clubs.
The chief added that he had not been
asked to appear before the council
manic Investigators, but would gladly
do so if called. He said he made the
tour at Councilman Humphrey’s re
quest. and was a silent Inspector unless
a request for his advice was made.
