CITY WILL ADOPT
5-YEAfII LIGHT BID
The bid of the Georgia Railway and
Power Company for a five-year con
tract to light Atlanta’s streets will b(
recommended to council for adoption by
the electric lights committee this aft
ernoon. despite the protest by City
Electrician Turner that the bid Is tot
high.
The bid will reduce the city's lighting
bill, now based on a contract signed
five years ago, by about $20,000 annual
ly. The gross cost to the city for street
lighting will be about SIIO,OOO a year.
City ECctrician Turner charged that
the figures, except for the White Way
lighting, were 60 per cent too high In
comparison with the rates some other
cities are getting.
Council will adopt the bid, it is ex
pected. In the absence of competition,
the committee decided that the only
way- to reduce the cost of electric cur
rent was to build an electric power
plant. (
Councilman Claude C. Mason will urge
that the arc lights in the White Way
district be cut out until 12 o'clock at
night, when the White Way lights are
turned off. The contract will contain a
provision that the city can take over
the White Way system if it decides to
furnish its own current by the proposed
crematory power plant.

Marietta Street Livestock Market Gets Thrill
FIGHT PUTSCURB IN PANIC
Atlanta’s more or less well known
live stock market at Marietta and For
syth street suffered a panic and a
marked reduction in supply on the hoof
today when a fight between two negro
boys furnished sport for the curb and
broke up bidding.
The youngsters, bicycle messengers
on a hurry call, ran into each other in
Forsyth street, just opposite the city
hall. They rose, surveyed their wrecked
machines and clinched.
At the curb stood a prominent cattle
owner from out Sandtown way, holding
a mild-eyed, ruminating cow by a
clothes line attached to her glistening
horns. The cattle owner chewed to
bacco, spat bn tlye asphalt, described
the lacteal capacity and liberality of
his stock in trade and discussed the
probable effect of the Democratic vic
tory- on the next cotton crop. A calf,
faithful to its mother, gamboled among
passing trolley- cars and motors, ever
and anon pausing for another drink of

After her arrival here she took a long

was a combination of the metropolitan

marked by civic students on their way
to the city hall to stall off their taxes
or persuade a councilman to pave a
private street.
The fighting youngsters fell in a
clinch, rolled over the asphalt, barely
missed being ground by a street car
and tumbled right under the heels of
the contemplative cow. Then she woke
up. She kicked each of those boys nine

WEEKLY DIME NOVELS
BARRED FROM SECOND
CLASS U.S.MAIL ENTRY
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18. —The supreme
court of the United States today sustained
the action of Postmaster General Hitch
cock in denying second class mail privi
leges to the "Tip Top Weekly” and "Work
and Win.” published by Smith & Street
and Frank Tousey.
The two cases grew out of Postmaster
General Hitchcock's crusade against
“dime novels” on the ground that they
were not newspapers or periodicals, but
books. The postmaster general excluded
from the second class privilege a large
group of the so-called "dime novel” pub
lication.
Justice Holmes, who delivered the opin
ion, said "the promise of future wonders"
in the next number did not give the pa
pers a periodical character.
