T1IK ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.
Declares He
for Alarm
an
Can Block Payment
System Without
Injunction.
‘‘I've got the upper hand and can
protect the city’s rights without any
injunction.” said Mayor James G.
Woodward this morning regarding the
application of W. W. Lowe for an or
der stopping the payment of money
on the contract between the city of
Atlanta and the Okonite Company.
W. W. Lowe filed application in the
Superior Court yesterday. His peti
tion will be heard June 14 Lowe al
lege*’ that a contract entered into Oc
tober 21, 1912, for the installation of
Gamewell signal stations, laying of
cable and rehabilitation of the ex
change, was illegal because the pur
chase price was to be paid during a
period of years.
The allegations in most respects are
similar to those set out in the’ recent
crematory suit. The contract price
for the signal system was $106,317.73.
“We Have Upper Hand.”
”lf they had asked me anything
aboyt it I would have advised them
not to bring this injunction suit,” said
the Mayor. ”The crematory suit set
tled the question. We have the upper
hand. We want to do what is right
and correct all wrongs. I could take
care of the city’s interests right in my
office here.”
Mayor Woodward said the contract
called for the installation of about 50
signal boxes at $125 each, but that
he had ascertained the patent had
run out and these boxes were selling
for $50 less.
' “If that’s the case,” he said, “we
won’t pay hut $75 apiece—just what
they are selling for everywhere else.
"I didn’t like the contract or the
way it was written.” the Mayor con
tinued. “The Okonite people laid ca
bles and the Gamewell people put in
signal boxes, but which of them got
the contract the other was certain to
get its particular kind of work out of
the job. It was a lump sum bid, us 1
understand.
Called for Lump Sum.
“The bid should have specified so
many feet of cable, so much; over
hauling the old exchange, so much; so
many new boxes at ho much apieoe.
so much; and so many feet of wire at
so much per foot, so much.
“But it didn't do that. It merely
called for payment of a lump sum.
Now. I want to know what the work
is worth. I have the upper hand. The
crematory suit settled that question,
and I can take care of this without
any injunction.”
Actual work on the contract is
nearly finished. Payment was con
template through several years,
on the honor” plan, which the Su

‘Fewer Clothes to
Improve Morals'
ST. LOUIS, June 4.—Met) were far
more beautiful than wometi until fine
feathers and fine clothes became a
commercial factor in life, acc ording to
the belief of Mrs. Lillian Stuart, who
testified before the Missouri Senate
wage investigating committee.
“Clothes are responsible for the
shallow life- of to-day.” she mid
"People soon will wear fewer clothes,
however, and they then will improve
morally and physically.”
YOUTHS IN COUNTRY
TOWNS WORKING HARD
TO LAND SHETLANDS
JUST LIKE A WOMAN
I nominate, as a candidate in The Hearst’s Sunday Ameri
can and Atlanta Georgian Pony Outfit Contest:
Name „
Address
Nominated by
Address
GOOD FOR 1,000 VOTES.
Only One Nomination Blank Can be Voted for Any Contestant.
Not only is a little candidate in Jefferson, Ga., working hard for
one of the pony outfits The Georgian and American are offering, but
also he is planning far into the future.
He writes:
"I am working as hard as I can. If you will help me get the pony
and cart, I will sell papers for you as long as the pony lasts, and will
give you all the money I make a week and will get some customers in
the country and will bring it to them.”
Evidently he wants a pony.
The Georgian and American can not give him help, though, any
more than is given other contestants. The contest is strictly impar
tial.
There is a hustler in Cartersville. He writes in for six books.
“Sure, for I am doing big business and need them badly.“
Vote totals are growing all along the line. No boy or girl will have
a pony in a “walkaway.”

TABERNACLE CULL
WINS M'CQNNELL
New Pastor Once Was Member of
the Detective Force of the
City of Atlanta.
The Rev. Lincoln McConnell, noted
lecturer and revivalist, who recently
was called to the pastorate of the
Tabernacle Baptist Church, has ac
cepted. A. C. Boatman, a prominent
member of the Tabernacle congiega-
tion, received the following telegram
from Dr. McConnell Wednesday morn
ing:
A. C. Boatman, Atlanta, Ga.
I have arranged Lyceum con
tract to suit, and am pleased to
say I can accept the Tabernacle
pastorate. I can not reach Atlan
ta till September 1, but will ar
range to take charge at that time.
Lincoln McConnell.
Dr. McConnell is 46 years old and
a native of Tennessee. Before his
conversion he was a member of the
Atlanta detective force for a number
of years. Becoming converted, he de
cided to enter the ministry, and was
instrumental in organizing the Wes
ley Memorial Church here.
He was pastor of that church for
about three years, and then left At
lanta to enter the evangelistic field*.
After leaving here he joined the
Baptist Church at Kansas City, Mo.,
and has been an active worker for
that denomination since. At present
Dr. McConnell is conducting a suc
cessful revival at Cape Girardeau.

leged Cruel Flogging—State
Inquiry Probable.
Suit for $10,000 damages has been
filed against Oscar F. Jones, Warden
of the Bel!wood convict camp, by John
Birt, who says he was cruelly beaten
on July 2, the day he was sent as a'
prisoner to the camp, with the result
that he spent several weeks in the
convict hospital.
In his petition, filed by Attorney C.
G. Battle, Birt charges he was given
72 lashes and kicked and beaten. He
iost 40 pounds in weight, he alleges,
and his earning capacity was de
creased three-fourths. He affirms he
was told his punishment was inflicted
because he cursed on the way to the
camp.
Attorney Battle said the circum •
stances of Birt’s treatment were so
flagrantly inhuman that the Prison
Commission began an investigation,
which will be taken up again July 1.
Birt was sick and unable to work at
the time, Battle says, and was chained
and maltreated by another convf’
camp official, against whom an add.
tional damage suit will be brought.

Jim's Lodge Woes
Something Fierce
Alderman and Mayor Pro Tern
James E. Warren has gained a unique
law client in the person of Jim Wash
ington, an ante-bellum darky who
came to him the other day with a tale
of woe.
For a long time Jim had been pay
ing his Darktown lodge a sum of
money each month as a sort of "death
benefit.” When a member of his fam
ily died the lodge brethren told him
he or she would be buried by the
lodge. Jim’s mother died and Jim
and his sister set the date of the fu
neral. When the time came they
learned that the obsequies had beerw
held the day before.
Then Jim got a notice that charges
had been preferred against him in the
lodge for failure to attend. That was
the last straw. He sought out Law
yer Warren and told his tale.
The committee in charge of plans
for closing the Forsyth Street viaduct
underpass expects to meet at 10
o’clock Thursday morning with W. A.
Winburn, president of the Central of
Georgia Railway, and Major J. L. Mc
Collum, of the Western and Atlantic.
The meeting was scheduled for Tues
day, but the railroad officials were de
tained in other cities.
Chief among the obstacles the com
mittee seeks to surmount is the prob
lem of caring for traffic in case the
underpass is closed. Three plans have
been proposed. One is to induce the ^
Central of Georgia to give a rififht-of-
way along the tracks to the Alabama
Street depot. It is understood,
though, that the railroad plans event
ually to extend the depot to Forsyth
Street, which would make this plan
impossible.
Another plan is to induce the West
ern and Atlantic to provide a right-
of-way along its tracks from Forsyth
Street to South Pryor Street. The
committee anticipates trouble with
this plan also, in that it would in
volve the surrender of trackage fa
cilities by wholesale houses. The
third plan is to build an incline from
the Forsyth Street viaduct.
If the committee arrives at a de
cision, its recommendations then
must be approved by the Governor
and the State Railroad Commission.
Should the desired approval be forth
coming the committee then will be
confronted w r ith still another problem
—that of getting the money.
"And that,” said Councilman Ash
ley Wednesday, "is quite a problem
all by itself, considering Atlanta's
present financial straits.”
The committee comprises James R.
Gray. Clark Howell, Robert F. Mad
dox, W. F. Winecoff and Councilmen

“A Perfect Woman Nobly Planned
To Warn, to Comfort and Command”
Nature never intended woman to be delicate, ailing, or a sufferer from
"nerves.” Women irt middle age complain of “hot flashes.” Many
women suffer needlessly from girlhood to womanhood, and from moth
erhood to middle life, with backache, or headache, dizziness, faintness, or
bearing-down sensations. For a permanent relief from these distressing
symptoms nothing is so good as
DR. PIERCE’S
favorite prescription
as a soothing and strengthening ner-
vine—allays and subdues nervous excitability,
irritability, nervous exhaustion, and other
distressing symptoms commonly attendant *
upon functional and organic diseases of the
feminine organs. It induces refreshing sleep
and relieves mental anxiety and despondency.
The “Favorite Prescription”
is known everywhere and for over 40 years as
the standard remedy for the diseases of
women. Your dealer in medicines sells it in
