‘TIGER' BUSINESS ON WANE IN CITY Locker Clubs Cut Into -Indus try,” and Virtually Only Of fenders Now Are Negroes. “Atlanta’s locker clubs have put all of the big blind tigers out of business. Most of the blind tigers operating now are of the negro, hip-pocket variety, and their business is almost exclusively among negroes," said Police Chief •Beavers today in discussing the liquor situation of the year. The number of tigers bagged by the police this year will be nearly the same as the total for last year, but “there’s a different class of them," as one officer remarked. The total number of tigers raided up to the first of November was 617, while for last year the total was 692. Thi.= leaves a difference of 75, with two months of this year unrecorded. The vast majority of tigers arrested this year have been negroes of the pint and half-pint brand. The city now has 22 locker clubs, while at the beginning of last year there Were less than half that number in ex istence. It is the growth of these so cial organizations which has decreased the blind tiger business, according to the chief. - “Our greatest trouble with blind ti gers now is among the negroes," says Chief Beavers. “The big wholesalers, and, in fact, all of the big tigers, have bitten the dust. Moet of them have been put out of business bv the police and the courts. Some cf the tigers no doubt have quit from sheer lack of busi ness and profit, due to the operation ot so many locker clubs. “The negroes, of course, can not be long to the locker clubs, and they still are doing business with the blind tiger. This is the cause of so many arrests of tigers this year. Virtually all of the ligers this year have proved to be loaf ing negroes, who roam Decatur street arid- other fertile spots with possibly half a dozen iialf-pints of whisky in their pockets, dishing it out to custo mers on the fly.” AUTOIST, ATLANTA-BOUND, SCARES HORSE: RIDER HURT HARRISONBURG, VA..

J., Nov. 29.—Having heard stories about the great age to which land turtles live, Howard Rog ers was only' mildly' surprised when he picked up a. turtle and saw carved on its back, ”H. C. —J. H., 1776.” He was sure he had found a Revolutionary relic. He took the turtle home and exhibited it proudly until Harry Clay' examined the turtle and reeled off a yarn that spoiled the Revolutionary- theory. Clay said that fifteen vears ago he and John Henrehen, now of Newark, were boys together and that they found that turtle. They. too. had heara sto ries of ancient tortoises and determined to have a little fun. They carved the initials and the date and set the turtle free, expecting that it would be found again within a short time and that they would have a little fun. The turtle did not let itself be found ami the two boys forgot their attempted hoax. Clay only remembered the incident when he again saw his old tortoise friend.
