Colonel • Lindsay Johnson, of

long enough this week to run over
from Washington to New York, and
have a look in on Gay Manhattan.
While Colonel Johnson was enjoy
ing the Great White Wav in one end
of the nation. Colonel William Jen-
ings Bryan was stacking up against
California in the other. Never since
the iniquitous "crime of ’73” ha,<-
these two Colonels been so far apa
Colonel Johnson's nomination to

is looked for within the next week or I
ten days.
The Railroad Commission will ask
the Legislature Tor authority to or
der the erection of union passenger
stations in cities and towns in Geor
gia, where, in the opinion of the com
mission, the conditions make such
stations desirable and necessary to
the accommodation of the traveling
public.
The Commission now has authority
to order the erection of separate sta
tions, but it has no authority what
ever in the matter of compelling
union stations.
The Lavonia Times refers to hi n
as "Commissioner of Agriculture
O’Conner.’’
If the Commissioner now is able
to establish the fact that he was
born nn the 17th of St. Patrick's Day. |
he would seem to have the Irish vote
cinched, all right.

Three Hundred Cases of Rabies
Treated Already This Year
Presented as Argi/ment.
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
The State Board of Health will urge
upon the incoming Legislature, i9
directly as it may, the great desir
ability of a dog-muzzling law ;n
Georgia.
The board is realizing that it is
somewhat difficult to enact any sort
of legislation having to do with dogs
in this State, and to make that leg
islation effective after it has been
enacted. Still, when the people are
made to understand. If they can be
made to understand, that an enforced
dog-muzzling law would in three
years rid Georgia of all danger of
rabies, and that already this year
the department has treated at the
capitol well over three hundred eases
of this dreadful disease, the board be
lieves the Legislature may be brought
to see the very great desirability, if
not absolute necessity, of such a
law.
A dog-muzzling law will be of
fered in the Legislature, and it wiil
be vigorously backed, not only oy
health boaivj and doctors throughout
the State, but by several influential
members. The State Board of Health
feels that the mere muzzling of dogs,
entailing some possible discomfort up
on them, as it may. stil! is infinite
ly preferable to an ever-increasing
list of patients to be treated for rab
ies.
Dog tax laws always have been
unpopular in Georgia, and those that
have been passed never have been en
forced. The dogs seems to have plenty
of friends In Georgia—even the “yal-
ler” curs and “flop-eared” hounds of
the more rural persuasion.
If the State Board of Health >can
succeed in showing conclusively
however, thht. the dogs are getting
to be, year by year, a more and more
deadly peril tc the people, and par
ticularly to children—for they com
pose by far the greater nortion of the
patients treated—the chances are tha.i
some effective legislation may be' ob
tained during the forth ming sum
mer session.
And. anyway, the board has every
intention of putting the matter up to
the General Assembly, fairly and
squarely.
\ member-elect of the incoming
Legislature has prepared two com •
panion bills for the General Assem
bly’s early consideration, both of
which are of far-reaching consequence
and assured of strong support.
One biil will provide for a cen
tral point of execution for crime m
capital cases—probably at Milledge-
ville—and the other will provide for
the substitution of the electric chair
for' the gallows.
Both bills are thought to have ex
cellent chances of passing the next
Legislature.
Elaborate arrangements are ur.dei
way, looking to the sumptuous enter
tainment of Josephus Daniels, of
North Carolina. Secretary of the
Navy, when he visits Savannah on n
about May 10.
Ir is^planned to give him a banquet
at The De Soto Hotel, to which a hun
dred or more prominent South Geor
gians will be invited. The Secretary
will be asked to deliver an address at
this dinner, and to discuss particu
larly the navy and its possible rela
tion to Savannah, and the coast cities
of Georgia.
The Mac m Telegraph should worry
and get a wrinkle, for this is the lat
est obsession it is entertaining:
“There is a duty of 45 cents a gal
lon on grape juice under the Payne-
Aldrich law and it is retained in the
Underwood bill, but if it is to become
a fashionable drink, it will have to
go on the free list as a necessary of
life.”
The Monticello News thinks the
next Legislature can increase the
State’s available funds for appro
priations to Us various institutions
by abolishing a few jobs around and
about.

Children of Atlanta Contest for
Prizes This Afternoon in
Annual “Easter” Hunt.
When a man with a trombline slide
the first notes of “Dixie” out of hji
horn at 3 o’clock this afternoon 20,000
Atlanta children Spread over Grant
PaiVt like bees over a flower'
searching for 200,000 candy eggs in
the weed*' and grass. For to-dev was
the dav of the annual Efts ter egg
hunt of the Atlanta Park Board, an
event children have been looking for
ward to for months.
All morning J5 or 20 men have
worked, scattering the vast number
of eggs, and as the children line up
on the boundary lines and impatiently
await the signal, Grant Park looked
like* an old-fashioned “crazy quilt.”
Red egg lay side by side with blue
egg. and yellow' egg nestle against
white in a riotuous maze of color. No
attempt was niade to hide the 200.000
eggs the children tried to find.
They were simply sown over the
ground from large baskets, and even
that work kept The 20 men busy all
day.
The 41 prize eggs, however, were
really hidden. Forty of these prize
« ggs arc made of wood and bear num
bers. When presented at'the pavilion
the child lucky finder was given
a prize bearing a corresponding num
ber.
The grand prize was a “golden egg.”
This egg is made of brass, and inside
of it was an order for a five dollar
gold piece.
To prevent a repetition of accidents
that marred the hunt last year, all
vehicles were excluded from the park
from 12 o’clock until the egg hunt was
over.
The committee in charge of the egg
hunt comprises W. C. Puckett, T. L.
Bond, R. A. Burnett, C. I. Branan and
Roger Winter.

The Question That
Always Made Him Boil.
After standing by for fifteen min
utes listening to the stream of ques
tions put to a policeman at a hus\
’corner the woman said:
“Don’t you get awfully tired of an
swering all these fool questions that
are put to you hour after hour?”
“Well, rather,” said he. "Still 1’vej
got so used to it that there is only
tone of the lot that makes me actual
ly boil.”
“Which one Is that?” she inquired.
"Don’t 1 get awfully tired of an
swering all the fool questions that
other folks ask.”
“Oh.” said the woman, and hur

Cats For Rent
Is the Latest.
A well-known Atlantan just back
from a trip to New York tells this
one:
In the window of an animal and
bird store not far from Broadway and
Eightieth Street hangs a sign that
says:
“Nancy, our Angora cat that
catches mice and rats, can be rented
by the dav or week.”

How Motion Signs
Are Now Designed.
"The electric sign Is only in its
Infancy." said a well-known electri
cian yesterday. “I was in New York
lust week and made It a point to see
all the big electrical signs that I
could. 1 met the junior member of
an electrical sign construction com
pany and While we were walking up
Broadway after the theater he called
my attention to one of the blazing
displays in which a horse appears on
a gallop.
“ ’Has It ever occurred to you,’ said
he, ‘how detailed must be the work
of the sign builder to represent the
movements of living beings in bulbs,
and make them artistically realis
tic? We have to go far afield some
times to obtain the lifelike effect.
Th.u horse, for example, plants his
hoofs just as in real life—otherwise
that sign would be an animated car
toon. Now, to get the individual or
disjointed movements of the legs in
their order of sequence the builder
minded that the eye of the otimera is
keener than man’s, procured the mo
tion picture film of a galloping horse
and, examining each snapshot, drew
his plans In duplicate. Flashing his
bulbs on and off with the same speed
employed by a movie operator, the
designer has produced the effect of
smooth and continuous motion.’ ”
