f THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, SATURDAY, M AY 3, 1913. DRAWS NEW'STAN LAWS GIRLINCUPID'S LOTTERY Three Hundred Cases of Rabies Treated Already This Year Presented as Argument. By JAMES B. NEVIN. The State Board of Health will urge upon the incoming Legislature, as 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 ;n this Stale, 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-rauzzling law would In three years rid Georgia of all danger of rabies, and that already this year the .department has treated at the capltol well over three hundred cases 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 wid be vigorously backed, not only by | health boards and doctors throughout j 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, still is infinite ly' preferable to an ever-Increasins Hat of patients to be treated for rab- ! ies. Dog tax laws always have been I unpopular in Georgia, and those that | have been passed never have been en forced.

BERLIN. May 3.—The Kaiser is on the laet stretch of the last lap in the race for the coveted twenty-five years reign of peace. Will he win the |ol den Jubilee prize? No one knows, but It is certain that he is restraining every nerve to reach the wire before the storm breaks, if it does break. The F'oreign Office has wrapped itself in a mantle of silence In regard to the Austrian attitude toward Montenegro and Servia, but the foregoing Is the way a military officer sized up the present situation. Well-informed men express the opinion that the Kaiser's hand has re strained Austria and prevailed on Vienna to wait before taking action in the hope that something may de velop which will avert what is feared here, namely, the beginning of a war into which Germany will be dragged against her will and in which she has no direct Interest. While the national and imperial newspapers urge Germany to support Austria and applaud the decision of the latter country to act, one gets the impression In talking with officials and financiers that Germany is still looking for some solution of the trouble other than the warlike one proposed by Austria. A member of the Kaiser’s entourage i«> quoted as saying in conversation with n friend that the Kaiser does not consider war necessary under modern Ideus and should be undertaken only as last re sort.

Assembly, fairly and A 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 bill will provide for a cen tral point of execution for orimb in capital cases—probably at Milledge- vilte—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.

His work attracted widespread attention and his services were in great demand. HJs smiling faces beamed from the pages of books and the covers of magazines. Rapidly his fame spread •over sea and he went abroad. He stuck to his own distinctive type of American girl and was as successful abroad as here. In Paris he studied at the Julian Academy and under Benjamin Constant and Jean Paul Laurens. In addition to his illustra tion work he has done some portrait painting and has been very success ful in this field als«o. The “Stanlaws Girl” is known the world over for her beauty and has 1 been pronounced by many artists as I the ideal portrayal of the true Amer- ! iean girl.
