2 GREAT DIPLOMACY STRUGGLE AHEAD Turks to Try to Offset Defeat in War by Victory in Peace Conference. LONDON. Dec. 9.—Hoping to offset on the field of diplomacy what they lost on the field of battle, the Turks are preparing to resist witli the most aggressive diplomacy any one exces sive demand by the allies in th' peace conference which open- hen I ridaj Diplomatic circles learned today that the Turkish envoys are coming her under direct instructions from Sultan Hohammed V to use every ne thod sanctioned by diplomatic usage to sax* ‘ what territory and national prestige they can It thus appears that the battle of di plomacy may resolve Itself into a ' ”li- L test between the "irreducible minimum r on the part of the Balkan allies against the national honor of the Ottoman em- pire. Each of the five governments involv f ed Will be allowed three envoys. Social Affairs for Envoys, It is expected that the coins.' of tin negotiations will be marked by social affairs for the envoys. King George may give a dinner for the plenipoten tiaries if thej settle nil the issues cably and without di«eord. <>f the Turkish delegates only the name of ( >- man Nizami Pasha has been officially handed in to the foreign office. The Ottoman government has been puzzled to select the best men. Because of the importance of Ills standing with the Balkan league, Pre mier Venizelos, of Greece, is expected to be one of the outstanding figures at the conference. He will probably take the place of one of Greece’s military delegates in the conference, the latter acting as an assistant. Prtnler Venl selos and Foreign Minister Coromilas of Greece, were two of the prime movers In the formation of the Balkan! league. Austria Against Peace. Reports were received here today from Vienna that Austria Is urging Turkey to assume an uncompromising attitude, but official circles close to the foreign office cast doubt upon this. They declare that Vienna would not dare to threaten the pence of Europe so openly. In part said Khnfal Pasha, in a mes sage from Constantinople: "We have very strong hopes that peace will be restored, but as the Bul gars have not yet definitely’ formulated their conditions I can not say whether this hope will bo fulfilled." The grand vizier characterized Greece’s actions as “pouring water into her wine." DALTON VOTERS TO NAME OFFICERS ON WEDNESDAY DALTON. GA., Dec. 9.

Rules of Etiquette in Matter of Noblemen HOW TO TREAT SIR TOM Sir Thomas Lipton, who has / made four ’ >*£3#* WBW unsuccessful ' / . \ GSF . attempts to win the Ameri- ’w. * wk can yachting ggMB cup and : is determined r> . try again ai BHpJ San Francisc ‘ 111 1915. He will be the guest of Atlanta p ■ Wednesday. By ALPHONSE DE RIGEUR. Sir Thomas Lipton, the man who put the sell in Ceylon, is to be in our midst tomorrow and my phone has been so busy with questions as to eitquette in the matter of noblemen and near-no blemen that I’ve decided to publish the official rules. Atlanta folk get on very well with Ty Cobb, and made no bad breaks xvhen Roosevelt and Taft came down, but it has been a long time since a sir paid us a visit and a lot of men who can devour their xvay straight through a nine-course dinner and make the knives and forks come out even without put ting them inside their opera vests are in doubt about whether to call our guest of honor "Colonel,” "Mr. Sir Lip ton” or plain “Tom, old man." But it isn’t difficult to learn how to treat a sir. it is best to adhere to the customs of the country in this re spect In Tennessee one says. "Well, it’s about my time of day. How about you?” In Kentucky they say “Colonel, you and gen’ral will have another, won’t you? I’ve ordered ’em.” And in Atlanta you just step up boldly and say ’T’ve ordered a bopk full of drink tickets on every club In town. Come on. Sir Tommy, and name your choice.” One of Nature’s Noblemen. But do not —oh, do not, under any circumstances —grow facetious and say “Sir Thomas, xvon’t you sample a bit of cold tea?" One must never talk shop, you know. Oh. no! It really isn't done. But any way that's the way to treat a noble man. from king doxvn to Jack. They're all gentlemen of capacity. Not that Sir Thomas is exactly a nobleman, except one of nature's va riety. which we all are. except the man xvho took tny umbrella Saturday night, and I wouldn't say he Is crooked, but I’ll het the cigars he could hide be hind the handle, which was made es pecially to hang over bars. But Sir Thomas is a square sport and a good loser, xxhich he ought to be, having had ten years or more steady practice. A Knight for Every Day. Sir Thomas isn’t exactly a nobleman in the British sense of the' xvord. No blemen originated when William the Conqueror came across the channel with ninety million men. according to tin- family trees of present generations w hose folks were with William. No. Thomas Lipton was just a plain, red-headed Irishman who started in tlie tea business, discovered advertis ing. became a millionaire and xvas hon ored by hfs country. When a man does that over here we call him a trust, draw cartoons of him, fine him $29,000,000 and let him take what he wants out of our weekly pay and hand us back the envelope. But in England tiny make him a knight, which pleases him just as much and costs the consumer less When a man is made i in England they call him "Sir" When he makes a niglit of it in Atlanta they call him doxx n. It seems there ought to be some connection between tho.-e statements, but it’s hard to figure out. Baronet? Little Baron. Anyxxay. Mr. T. J. Lipton, teas and spit es, became Sir Thomas. Afterward, when lie found then were so many knights up ind down Piccadilly that [they had to have Hpceial traffic ordi nances. Sir Thomas want buck to th< late queen, tegistered a protest, and was made a baronet. A baronet is a little baron It's like being on the gov ernor - staff, < onspieuous but not re iiiuii* ratix' . But it's better titan being THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.MONDAY. DECEMBER 9, 1912. Just a mere knight, for as some merry wag wrote to “Punch,” there’s a knight for every day. So don’t call him “My Lord” or “Your Lordship" or pull any of that stuff. “Sir Thomas” is the correct salutation, just plain “Sir Thomas.” Do not feel a delicacy in addressing him by his front name on short acquaintance. In England, last names are used for but lers and housekeepers, you know. Why, the king, God bless him, has forgotten he ever had a surname, though he has enough front and middle names to sup ply an orphan asylum. And it will not be necessary to remain uncovered in his presence unless you’re in the par lor. Talk of Yachting, of Course. Dut of course you'll want to chat with Sir Thomas and make him feel at home, and being forbidden to talk tea you’ll fall back on yachts and yachting. Sir Thomas is collecting views bn yachting from several inland cities. So you might ask him whether he ever gets seasick and what he takes for it. what he thinks of American yacht ing rules (if no ladies are present), and whether he prefers steam or gasoline for racing purposes. You might refer casually to the skipper ami his assist ant, the scupper, or speak in an off hand way of splicing the spinnaker abaft the to’gallant lee carburator. If he doesn’t grow enthusiastic over that tell him about your ocean trip and how the captain said you were the best sailor he ever saw. He’d be awfully in terested in your trip. But don’t, don’t ask him if this is his first visit to America. For he has been over several distinct and separate times just to get one piece of silver ware, and he hasn’t got it yet. But he has hopes. COLLEGE BOYS DEBATE ON QUESTION OF LOVE OXFORD. GA.. Dec. 9.—Phi Gamma Literary society won the fall term im promptu debate at Emory college. The subject was based on Scott’s “Lady of the Lake” and was “Resolved, That if a young woman's lover and father were prisoners of war and she had the power to save one. and only one, she should save her lover.” The affirmative was championed by Few society, while Phi Gamma upheld the negative.

B. Posey, negro porter on the Dixie Flyer, is badly stabbed, and several i women passengers today are recover | Ing from nervous shock as the re i suit of a small sized riot last night on the flyer as it was speeding through th- mountains of Murray county at the rate of nearly a mile a minute. Posey, who refused medical aid at Grady hospital, is locked up in the po lice station, and 1-, Morgan, an elec trical engineer of Birmingham, is also held under guard, pending advices from the Murray county authorities. Whites Used Fists, The trouble occurred when twenty ne gro passengers, all laborers of the A. C. Brooks Construction Company, of Bir mingham, xvho were being transported from Tullahoma, Tenn., to Live Oak. Fla., assaulted the negro porter. Had it not been for the presence in the white compartment of the combination coach of four white men connected with the company, Morgan, Barry Jones, Ed Mo ragne and A. C. Brooks, the conse quences might have been more serious. This quartet of engineers, however, rushed among the fighting blacks, and, with their fists as weapons, beat back their employees. None of the white men were injured beyond a few minor bruises. During the melee, passengers in the next coach were attracted, and a num ber of women, who could plainly see the surging, charging croxvd of whites and blacks in the combination coach, screamet] witli fright. Blacks Draw Knives, Knives were draxvn by the blacks, and Posey was slashed several times. His condition, hoxvever, is not considered serious. According to witnesses, the trouble started when the porter, who is ac cused of being intoxicated, is said to have insolently commanded some of the negro passengers to stop smoking. When they refused, he is said to have returned to the coach with a butcher knife, and this was the immediate sig nal for an outbreak. Plain Clothes Officers Allen and Gar rett met the train in the Union depot and took Posey and Morgan into cus tody. NEGRO PAIR SLASH MAN’S POCKETS AND GET 150 DIAMONDS CHICAGO, Dec. 9.—Detectives today are searching the negro quarter of Chi cago for two robbers who attacked Jo seph Marochnlck, a New York diamond importer, and robbed him of $27,500 in diamonds and $1,600 in currency. The robbery occurred in Michigan avenue, one block south of the Blackstone hotel, at midnight. Marochnlck was slashed with knives and razors as he fought with the high waymen. The diamonds were his own property and xvere not insured. His coat was slashed in a number of places and there was an ugly gash across the back of one hand when he rushed to a police station and told his story. Marochnlck fought desperately, he said, but the negroes slashed at him and cut open the pocket in which the dia monds were carried. They also cut away his necktit?, in which was a dia mond pin. The stolen stones consisted of 150 unset diamonds. Marochnlck was to have been mar ried in January.

Guard Well Your Coop of Christmas Chickens PESKY POPE'S AT LARGE! “Keep a padlock on your chicken house and tie the dog inside it. The Atlanta negro is going to have his Christmas chicken, even if he has to buy it. but buying is his last resort.” That’s tlie advice the county ■ police are giving suburban residents as Christ mas approaches. Even as watermelon on the Fourth of July or as fried fish in the springtime is the smell of chick en gravy at Christmas to tlie colored contingent. Chicken fanciers who have lost whole coops of prize-winning birds in other pre-holiday seasons are sit ting up with shotguns between their knees. For several years ther£ has flourished in Atlanta and its environs a chicken fancier knowti to sheriff and police as Pesky Pope. Pesky is a chicken con noisseur He can tell a Buff Orpington cockerel from a barred Wyandotte the minute he tightens his grip around tnelr legs, and he can shut both eyes and distinguish between a Brahma and an Indian Game the instant he sinks his teeth in the drumstick. Some Chicken Eater! Pesky is accustomed to chicken three times a day in the intervals xvhen he is not sojourning in the stockade, and is knoxvn far and xvide as a more danger ous pest than the roup, pip and all other chicken epidemics combined. During the last chicken show at the Auditorium, Pesky coaxed a ticket from some one and roamed up and’down the aisles like a eat outside a canary cage, his mouth watering for prize chicken. “That languid colored gentleman, there by the bantam coop, holds the distinction of having eaten the highest priced meal ever served in Atlanta.” said one of the show directors, point- LOK OE MUSIC LAUD ORCHESTRA First Philharmonic Concert a Success—Mortimer Wilson Proves Able Conductor. Atlanta music lovers today are dis cussing the successful opening of the winter musical season—the first con cert by the Philharmonic orchestra at the Grand yesterday afternoon. The large audience and its evident appre ciation of music of the high-class gives promise that there will be real Interest shown in something above ragtime this year. Mortimer Wilson proved himself a conductor of unusual ability by the fin ished work of his orchestra after an ex tremely Inadequate number of rehear sals. Those who had kept pace with the work of the orchestra members and knew how limited had been their opportunity for ensemble practice were amazed at the finish of the work at the opening concert. This was particularly striking in the rendition of Beethoven’s great Fifth Symphony, a work worthy of the greatest of orchestras, and one which would be utterly ruined by a sec ond-rate organization. It was played magnificently. Other numbers were the Lohengrin prelude. Tschaikowsky’s Slavic march and Carl von Weber’s famous "Jubi lee" overture. There was no "light music” on the program, but the audience, easily the largest ever attendant upon a phil harmonic concert in Atlanta, seemed thoroughly to enjoy and appreciate the recital. DISINHERITEDSONTO SHARE IN RICH ESTATE MONTGOMERY. ALA., Dec. 9.—De spite the will of the late Colonel Willis Brewer, leaving his son, Willis Brewer, Jr., the paltry sum of $5, the young man xvill share in the large estate, according to Mrs. Mary Baines Brewer, wife of the deceased. All family differences have been ad justed since the death of the father, stated Mrs. Brewer. “I and my daughter have charge of the estate,” said Mrs. Brexver, "and the son of tlie family will be taken care of. We expect to live our lives loving one another unto the end.” In bequeathing his boy $5 from a for tune of more than SIOO,OOO, Colonel Brewer referred to his offspring as “my inhuman son.” v KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS NAME NEW OFFICERS Georgia Lodge, No. 135, K. of P„ has elected officers for the ensuing term.

LOUIS, Dec. 9.—Three men tried to rob Charles Getz of three nickels at Ninth and Market streets. He fought the three highwaymen, was knocked down, kicked and beaten. At the city hospital physicians found three ribs were fractured. When he revowred consciousness Getz’s first thought xxus of his three nickels. He asked one of the doctors to feel in his left trousers pocket and see whether they xvere safe. The doctu 'reported they were. ing out Pesky to a group of visitors. “New York's lobster palaces are pikers beside him. Pesky’s $950 Breakfast. “It was just after the first chicken show given In Atlanta. All the prize birds had been loaded into xvagons,' ready for the express office, when that, negro happened along and took a look. He climbed aboard a wagon, persuaded the driver to have a ‘nigh-beer’ or two with him, and finally drove the load of chickens into Darktown, chose about a dozen fine young fowls and disappeared. “Next tmorning the police found chicken feathers outside his door and the remnants of a chicken breakfast on his table. Pesky and his friends had devoured $950 worth of chicken, ac cording to prices offered and refused by the owners. How’s that for one break fast? “Come over here, Pesky,” he called. The dusty fancier approached, grin ning. The Way To Raise Chickens. "Pesky, they tell me you are the best chicken raiser in Atlanta," said the di rector. 'Tell us how you do it.” "Well, suh,” explained Pesky. “De bes’ xvay to raise chickens is to get a nice wide plank and a tallow candle. When de nights are chilly de chickens’ feet gits cold on de roostses. You slip under de roost and light de candle and warm de end of the plank. Den you slip de plank up in front ob de chicken and touch him on de toes and he'll step off on it, glad to git his feet warm. Den you let him down easy and put him in de sack, Dat’s de bes’ way.” A look over the police records shows that Pesky Pope is now at liberty. Warning is therefore issued to all chicken owners to buy a bulldog or take their chickens inside tjie house. t/p and Down Peachtree Leaves His Coin Where Slot Machine Used To Be. 1 was a chilly wintry evening and a goodly throng was there”—just add the rest of the stanza of "The Face on the Bar Room Floor” .and you'll have the scene fairly accurately, from the sand on the floor to the white-aproned person be fore the mirror. And, true to form, the stranger en tered. Here you’ll have to desert the tragic epic of paint and nose paint. The stranger made no dramatic appeal for grog nor was he greeted with hideous hoots by the merrymakers. He merely meandered back to the place where a few brief days ago persons played slot machines and slot machines played on them. The machines were missing. He turned to the bartender. He said no word, but his eyes asked his ques tion eloquently. The bartender shook his head. “Gone, gone,” he muttered. "The council's put ’em out of business.” No word of complaint was uttered by the stranger, but digging deep into his pocket he produced a nickel. He placed the coin where the machine should, or rather, should not, have been, and once more turned to the door. M ant a beer?” asked the beer man. The stranger shook bls head and con tinued his progress to the •sidewalk. “That’s all right, as far as it goes," said a patron. “He didn't go far enough though.
