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 The Hightower Box and Tank Com * ny made a showing of its excellent Girls High School Players Prove Fast Athletes and Dead Shots at Goals MERE MAN’S BASKET BALL SUPREMACY IMPERILED r , -- —"" ‘ ♦ TOT W £ * < w® M /•*’**-" \\ i mURvs ASS MkL •»- ’ W® - wWjr W» wMy W’Min’ ■\\ Mir' - HMMME Cw a- win \\ WW st Mlsaair 'V w/ ' '■ ' a 7 sjp '* ■ TROOPS ON DUTY IN JffiMLLE 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. shipping coops, as well as some neat feeding troughs and the like. H. G. Hastings & Co. makes the largest display at the show'. Their ex hibit includes Essex and Queen incu bators, Essex brooders, Internationa! hovers, a full line of Conkey’s reme dies, a full line of sheet metal drink ing vessels, food hoppers, and the like, egg shipping cases, poultry feeds, bran, alfalfa and the like.

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 sented Cobb county in the legislature and 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 o’clock from the Marietta Methodist church, of which he was a member, and tiie Interment was in the Mariuila suum ter’- 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. t/p and Down 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. GLENN NOW WITH ADLER. Donald Glenn, for many years with the George Muse Company, and widely known In the men's furnishing trade, is now with L. C. Adler's Toggery Shop, in Peach tree street.

LIEBERMAN'S Bell M. 466 92 Whitehall 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. DELEGATESARENAMED TO GOOD ROADS MEETING Wilmer L. Moore, president of the Chamber of Commerce, today appointed the following committee of arrange ments for the Southern Appalachian Good Roads convention, which meets here November 20 and 21: W. T. Winn, chairman; John S. Cohen, C. L. Anderson, W. G. Hum phries, S. W.'McCallie, T. R. Sawtell, John J. Woodside. A meeting of the committee has been called for tomorrow at noon. 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. 10 Pound M Aft Pall Silver VI /M Leaf Lard liLU SNOWDRIFT LARD ZS 10-lb Pail gg|94c GUARANIkEO Fresh Coim- Qflc try Eggs Doz. dv Good 250 and 30c Butterin*.
