Hearst’s Sunday American Will
Announce Best Slogan—Many
Submitted Saturday.
Judges Saturday took c harge of all
the "500,000 club" slogans submitted
in the $25 prize contest. They are
John W. Grant, Wilmer L. Moore and
Walter C. Taylor. At The Geor
gian office they began a careful study
of the hundreds of suggestions sub
mitted.
Hearst’s Sunday American will an
nounce the winner.
The last day of the contest brought
in the largest number of submissions
of any other day. Many are beauti
ful designs by well-known artists.
Others are striking for their literary
merit. All bespeak the wonderful At
lanta spirit save one.
That came in anonymously from a
cynical humorist. He went to the
trouble of drawing a large picture
burlesquing Atlanta from the City
Hall to the last garbage dump beyond
"Pittsburg.”
The Cynic's Slogan.
In one corner was a large building
marked "Hot Air Factory.” Next to
it was the City Hall, called "The
House of Mystery,” and on top of the
building sat a doubtful bird mark
ed "Graft.” The bottom of the pic
ture showed three stragglers passing
out of a gate with the remark:
"< »iitiin ain’t ao tuid aftai ail."
It’s a cinch this design won’t get
the prize
One of the best of the last sug
gestions was a map of Georgia with

WASHINGTON, July 12.—A new

announced that hey will be on hand
to offer 10,000 and 20,000 word "at
tacks" should the generals of debate
at any time become weary.

SOFIA IN TERROH
OF ATTACK BF
ROUMANIA
Bulgar Capital Expected to Fall
Within Week—Czar Ferdi
nand Ready to Flee.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
SOFIA, July 12.—A Roumanian
army Is marching upon Sofia and un
less there Is 8 peaceful settlement In
the meantime the Bulgarian capital
will be occupied next week.
The residents of the city are panic
stricken and in a hostile mood
against the government for suppress
ing newspapers during the fighting
between Bulgarians and Servians and
Greeks in Macedonia. It was not un
til to-day that the people learned that
the Bulgars have been crushed at ev
ery point.
An attempt was made to assassi
nate Dr. Daneff, former Premier, as
he was on his way to confer with
President Guechoff.
Czar Ferdinand is reported to be
preparing to evacuate the city.
So far as Servla and Greece are
concerned the Balkan war is believed
to be over, but Roumanian troops
continue to pour Into the eastern part
of Bulgaria. These troops are fresh
and fully equipped for fighting and
are eager to clash .with the Bulga
rians. The shattered Bulgarian
forces are no match for the Rouma
nians.
The Roumanians have occupied the
Bulgarian towns of Turtukal, Dob
rid sh and Baltchik. There is no re
sistance to the advance of the Rou
manian forces.
Bulgars, Routed, Massacre
200 Greeks; Foes Pursue.
ATHENS, July 12. —Greek and Ser
vian forces tn Central Macedonia have
now joined, making a mighty army
of 150,000 men. Two hundred Greeks,
both men and women, have been mas
sacred near Serves by the retreating
Bulgarians. The Bulgarians have fled
from Serres in a panic at the ap
proach of the Greek soldiers.
The powers have advised Greece to
make peace with Bulgaria. Mr. Coro
milas, the Greek Foreign Minister, re
ceived a note from the European
states advising Greece to join with
Servla in ceasing hostilities France
will probably become the "protector”
of Greece, now that the Balkan
league has become shattered by war.
Outcast White Deer
Herds With Horses
LIBBY, MONT., July 11—Henry
Wegner, who has a ranch on the
upper Yakt, says that a pure white
deer has become associated with his
the horses and follows them into the
horses and follows them Into the
corral. Mr. Wegner said it was a
doe and had pink eyes, so he named
it Albino.
Old hunters here say that on ac
count of its freakish apearance it
had become an outcast, and in such
cases the animal always will go to
a herd of cattle or horses if possible.

ATTORNEYS PASS
LIE AND BLOWS
IN MACON
Solicitor General Ross and Law
yer Harris Clash Over Trial
of Vice Cases.
MACON. July 12—Attorney Jesse
C. Harris brought about a sudden
adjournment of the special criminal
session of the Bibb Superior Court
yesterday afternoon by calling So
licitor John P. Ross a liar and strik
ing him in the face in the court
room. Harris was fined SSO for con
tempt of court and also censured by
Judge Mathews for his conduct.
Harris represented fifteen women
of the restricted district who are
charged with operating disorderly
houses. In moving for a continuance
of these cases, he declared that So
licitor Ross would not call the cases
represented by any other lawyers, but
was seeking solely to prosecute those
represented by him (Harris).
"That’s a falsehood, your honor,"
interposed the Solicitor.
"You're a liar," shouted Attorney
Harris, striking the Solicitor in the
face.
Deputies seized both men imme
; diately.
"He's a dirty little scoundrel; let
me hit him once," shouted Solicitor
1 Ross, but was restrained.
Judge Mathews held that the jury
was prejudiced in the matter of -try
-1 ing any of the defendants represent
ed by Harris, and as Solicitor Ross
refused to call any other cases,
though stating that he was prepared
for trial in all of them, the court
was adjourned for the term and all
parties discharged. The Solicitor
stated that Harris represented all of
the prominent defendants, and that
he did not propose to try the lesser
and weaker defendants first. "Thera
are ‘stars' of varying magnitude in
Tybee (the vice district) as well as
, in glory,” he said.
