■GIES, Sill HIS EISSUES LIVE, SHMUEL Scientist Winner of Nobel Prize Makes Amazing Declaration Concerning Dissolution.

"Between the death of the organism and the eimental death there is a pe on where the tissues are progressively invaded by cadaveric, distintegratlon.

Moore, chief of the national weather bureau, stepped from the Washington train early today, cocked a critical eye at the blue sky and greet ed the reception committee. “Ah. very nice, very nice indeed,” he remarked. "Perhaps a trace of humid ity, but very fair proportion of ozone. Os course, that smoke —but smoke's not under my department.” Then, satisfied with the weather fur nished for his reception by C. F. Von Herrmann, Atlanta forecaster, he was driven to 'the Georgian Terrace for breakfast and a. conference with eigh teen weather bureau officials who came from Utah and Florida and Colo rado and other states to discuss ways and means of helping the farmer tell when to get In his hay or dig a cyclone cellar. The officials have been holding an Informal conference for several days and Professor Moore came down to greet them and offer congratulations on their making a 90 per cent success in prognostications for the past year. Uncle Hi Disappointed. Just inside the corridor of the Ter race stood Uncle Hi Suggs, who lives out Battle Hill way and is the best and most voluminous weather prophet in Georgia, barring the salaried ones who work by telegraph and barometer. Un cle Hi has an apparatus of his own, and scorns the scientific devices of the official bureau. But he had come all the way from Battle Hill, successfully ne gotiated the storm doors without loss of his whiskers, and was prepared to join the council of forecasters. He was disappointed to learn that the sessions were executive and he couldn't get in. “They needn’t think they’ve got any patent on prophesyin’ the weather.” he remarked scornfully. "I’m willin’ to back my predictions agin’ the best they can do any time. Didn’t l write a let ter to the papers last spring sayin' It would be the rainiest summer on rec ord, and didn’t the rain fall and the storms rage until even thing In Georgia got mildewed with the wet? “No, I don’t depend on no thermome ters. All they can tell you is how hot or how cold It is right now. and what’s the use of knowin’ that? I’ve got a frost-bit heel I caught with Gen’l Gor don in '64. and every time it com mences to swell up and blister, I know we’re in for cold, and maybe snow.

LOSERSffI KEHL BWITMR Balkan and Cuban Troubles Make Sale of Lands of De funct Institution Difficult. The Balkan war has made it practi cally impossible for the depositors in the defunct Neal bank to receive another dividend on their deposits in time for Christmas purposes, according to a statement of Judge John S. Candler, one of the attorneys for the receivers of the bank, today. He said the remaining assets of the bank were some lands in Alabama and some lands in Cuba. The Alabama lands are being advertised for sale, but it is not likely that a deal will be closed In the immediate future. Nego tiations were well under way to dis pose of the Cuban lands to a French capitalist, but the Balkan war came along, disturbing business conditions in Europe and French capitalists who had been interested dropped all thought of sending funds out of Europe. Judge Candler said that to dispose of the lands at a public sale would be a foolish sacrifice of valuable property. There had been some chance of selling the property in Cuba until the Cuban insurrection started. GIRL OUTDOES BOYS AT CARPENTER WORK ST. PAUL, MINN., Nov. 14—In the advanced class in manual training taught by L. A. Harmsberger at the Central High school are many youths with the sure hand to join and saw and plane and hammer with the best of cabinetmakers, but strangely enough the star student of the class is not a boy, but a girl. She is Lorraine Cam eron, the seventeen-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs, P. H. Cameron. with accuracy. And while it is possi ble that we may reach the point where we can predict for the coming summer or winter, I would not venture to assert that this is probable. “The forecasts of the weather bureau have been correct nine times out of ten in the past year. The department has only recently been brought up to that efficiency. While there are kicks from disgruntled persons who bu reau is always wrong and ought to be abolished, these do not come from those w’hose lives and property depend on our forecasts. These have learned how accurate the department really Is, and understand that 90 per cent is far from being guesswork.” "Would you be willing to predict the weather for Woodrow Wilson's inau guration?" he was asked timidly. Professor Moore looked pained. Per haps he remembered the spring of four years ago when the forecast was "fair” and several regiments of troops and thousands of others were snowbound on their way to Washington and nearly froze to death. But he laughed and turned away. "The 4tb of Man i i- m uncertain season,” he replied. ‘T'vt got to go now.' Wedding Garments of 70 Years Ago Become Aged Woman's Shroud Body of Mrs. Betsy Patterson' Buried in Casket She Had Made 30 Years. MOULTRIE. GA., Nov. 14.—Shroud ed in her wedding trousseau of 70 years ago, and incased In a casket for which she had the lumber sawed from a cypress tree growing on her farm 30 years ago, the body of Mrs. Betsy Pat terson has just been buried at Sandy Bluff cemetery, near Nashville, m Ber rien county. Mrs. Patterson died at her old home stead near Sparks, where she had re sided continuously for 50 years. She was nearly 90 years old, and Was well known throughout Berrien county. Her more intimate acquaintances reverently called her "Aunt Betsy.” For three score and ten years—the allotted span of lift-—Mrs. Patterson had carefully preserved tiie garments she wore when a happy young bride in her teens. It was her often expressed wish that upon her death these gar ments should constitute her shroud, and relatives and friends in charge of her funeral acceded to this desire. BRANCH POLIGt STATIONS URGED “The Georgian’s editorial on 'Police Problems’ calls attention to conditions open to great improvement. The du plication of ‘beats' by poltcemeh and the various inspectors Is attracting at tention in ail the leading cities of the country as unsystematic and a waste of money. "The idea of having sub-police sta tions in fire engine houses is practical ■ and very economical. It Is being plan - ; ned~in some cities to have health sta- I tlon.s in these houses as well.” This was the statement made toda. | by Herbert R. Sands, the municipal ex pert of New York, who has been em ployed by the Atlanta Chamber of Com merce to make an Investigation of the city government, Candler Favors Plan. Acting Mayor John S. Candler said today that he was confident the idea of having sub-police stations in a num ber of the lire stations would be car ried ouf in another year. "Our police station is too far away from the greater part of our city,” he said. "Our new fire and police signal system will make it a very simple mat ter to have sub-stations in several of the fire stations. The difficulties in po licing our growing city demand such a step.” The officiate over the sanitary and water meter inspectors, however, were not very enthusiastic over the sugges tion that these inspectors should do regular iKillce duty.

The parade moved from Third and Cherry streets at 7:30 o’clock and pa-sed through the principal business ami residential streets. Every home on, Georgia, avenue. College street and Or ange street, the fashionable residence section, was brilliantly illuminated and decorated. Nearly all of the principal buildings in the business section were also illuminated.

Nearly all of tlm vehicles w n hand somely decorated. Fireworks, Too. The city ordinance against the dis •■liarge of fireworks was suspended for tl.i- night, and for several hours the streets echoed with the deafening deto nations of torpedoes and glowed with tiie glare of luridly colored candles. The celebration of the Democratic success at the polls by the people of Macon was participated In by practi cally every resident of the city who was able to leave home for the early part of the night.
