12 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. _ _ T. J. MARSHALL. Is Chicken Raising a Snap? The an.sw.-r to the above inquiry depends eiitirelx upon who answers. II you ask the thrifty wide-awake i'aruier or poultry raiser the on * who has time to do things right, ami wlfo believes in doing them right—you will hear that it is a snap. You will find that with good stock well selected and well yarded, and well ted at proper intervals, on good wholesome feed, and with everything kept scrupulously ••lean, the owner will tell you that poultry keep ing i> a pleasure and a satisfaction; that he wmdd rather look after his slock of poultry, xvatch the development of the young stock, gather the dozens of clean uniform eggs from laying hens than do any of the other things he has to attend to. It' you ask the farmer's wife, who takes an interest in looking after the chickens, who keeps a nice looking Hock of White Wyandottes or White Plymouth Rocks, who lias a few select customers to whom she sells her surplus eggs al good prices, who does not depend upon her hus- band or the hired man to water and feed for her—if you ask her about this chicken business, she will tell you it is al) right. On the other hand, if you should happen to stumble upon the shiftless farmer or the over worked wife at the farm house where th<* chickens arc found roosting all over the back porch, in the wood shed, in the horse sheds, ready to have the dog set ipou them and their tail feathers dl pulled out. neck feathers ideved off and cuffed about in a general way, such persons will ell you that keeping chickens is anything but a snap. They will tell you that the chickens ire everlastingly under, foot and in the oad; they eat more of the horses’ feed Orpingtons.

Second Disastrous Blaze With in Month Destroys Opera House—Loss $30,000. WASHINGTON. GA., Dec. 24. Washington was visited by the second disastrous fire within a month's time when Lyndon’s opera house was com pletely destroyed last night. Falling’ rear walls of the three-story opera house crushed two one-story brick buildings occupied by The Washington Gazette-Chronicle and Washington ga rage. The loss is estimated at $30,000, with only SIO,OOO insurance. The lire, was discovered on the third floor of the opera house building and was of uncertain origin. The room in which flames were first seen was un occupied. However, it was reported to Dr. G. E. Lyndon, the owner, that Christmas gamblers had been seen in the room in the afternoon. The suppo sition is that cigarette stumps started the blaze. Booker & Jackson lost their stock of merchandise, valued at $12,000, with $7,000 insurance. Dr. Lyndon, who was interested Ln the garage and newspaper property, lost about $15,000, with about $3,000 insurance.

TOKIO, Dec. 24.—An unsuccessful attempt to assassinate Prince Yama gata, one of the leading statesmen of Japan, was made today. Seeing that ’ he had failed in his purpose, the would be assassin committed suicide Prince Yamagata, who is a field mar shal and president of the privy coun cil, was attacked in his home at Sekl guchi, Koishikawa, by the assassin and \was stabbed in two places, but not se riously injured. ’The prince is 74 years old, but has a powerful physique, and he overpowered his assailant before he called his attendants to remove him to prison. The would-be assassin was a young man, apparently not over 22 years old He refused to give his name and when asked why he had attempted to kill the prince said: “For my country's good." The young prisoner swallowed a large dose of morphine before he was removed to prison from Prince Yama gata’s home. He was cared for by three physicians at the prison, but died with out regaining consciousness. The au thorities believe the assassin was In sane. Reports are current indicating that a servant in the Yamagata household may have helped him in his plans The attack occurred shortly after midnight and it is believed the assassin had hid den behind some draperies to await the return of the prince from a meeting of the elder statesmen at which he ore. sided last evening. The prince was attacked almost as soon as he entered his home, and the authorities believe that attaches of the prince’s household may have had some knowledge of the plot. Many threats had been made against the prince’s life. As the supreme mill tary adviser of the government. Prince Yamagata had incurred the hatred and threats of the Japanese Socialists The prince was born in 1838 and has won practically* every honor that it is possible for a Japanese to secure 1,000 GRAIN SHIPPERS LOSE SUITS AGAINST DISCRIMINATING LINES WASHINGTON, Dec. 24. —-An impor tant decision, setting a precedent for about 1,000 claims for a total repara tion of $500,000, has just been handed down by the interstate commerce com mission. Grain shippers were the losers. The commission held that under re cent direction of the supreme court of the United States it could not award damages to shippers of grain even if railroads discriminate against them by giving elevator allowances to their competitors. By decision of the supreme court of the United States, which the commis sion followed, it is pointed out that a railroad for competitive reasons may grant an elevator allowance, although no transportation service is rendered by the shippers owning the elevators. This is the first case that the Inter state commerce commission has decided since the supreme court rendered its decision.
