$ THE ATLANTA UEUKUIAM A.N D NEWS. nnniilmnii fSlDLUGHTS GEORGIA POLITICS • DEFEATED Senate, 22 to 18, Votes Down Searcy Liquor Measure—Call ed Blind Tigers’ Aid. A tern pern me battle, with Sf*natjr W. K. H. Searcy’s bill making pur chasers and sellers of blind tiger whisky equally guilty as the storm center, developed in the Senate Fri day. After more than an hour of dis illusion, in which President Randolph Anderson twice rescued the bill by aligning himself with Senator Sear cy’s forces, the bill was defeated by a vote of 22 to 18, after an amendment offered by Senator Sweat, which pro vided that the provisions of the bill do not apply to purchasers of whisky for the purpose of securing evidence, had been lost by a vote of 20 to 10. Senator Q. Y. Harrell started the fight against the bill, declaring that it would be more of an aid to the operation of blind tigers than a pre ventive. Called Aid to Blind Tigers. "The caption of the bill should b“ changed to read, ‘A hill to promore the interests of blind tigers,’ he sail. "The passage of this bill would abso lutely destroy all chances of getting evidence against blind tigers. Th • best and most common method of apprehending the sellers of whisky is to send a decoy to purchase the liquor with marked money. If you make this decoy a criminal, he will keen his mouth shut and no evidence can be obtained." Senator Stark made a long speech in favor of the bill. In which he de clared that it was directed against the agent of the blind tiger and the traveling blind tiger, rather than against the actual user of the whisky. Senator Huie, in explaining his ac tion in voting aaginst the bill, said: "Voting for this hill w'ould pla'*e me in the ranks of the fool prohibi tionists. and 1 am not that kind of a prohibitionist!’’ Searcy Defends Hit Bill. "If I am a fool for supporting the bill." retorted Senator Searcy, the author of the measure, a few min* utes later, "I am a fool for Christ’s sake!" Senator Searcy’s faction forced ac tion on th* bin b\ voting down three motions designed to delay action on the measure. Senator Harrell’s mo tion that action be postponed indefi nitely was voted down almost unani- *oou«»ly. The vote on Senator Mc Neill’s motions that the bill be tablvl and that action be postponed until Monday were a tie, but the bill was saved each time by President Ander son. who voted against the motions. Senator Tarver’s bill, giving power to the State Railroad Commission to order the erection of a union station in towns where two or more railroads entered, was passed by the Senate, with amendment*- which Senator Tar ver said were acceptable to the rail road interests. Railroads Get Safeguards. These amendments provided that the Commissioners’ order should be given with "due regard to the finances of the railroads.” and that the stations should be erected "where practicable and in the Interest of the public and the railroad companies." Two bills that are considered im portant were introduced into the Sen ate Friday. One, by Senators Sweat, Converse, Rushin. Taylor, Watt and Tyson, provides for the removal of the Georgia Experiment Station to a point in South Georgia, and for the establishment of closer relations be tween it and the Georgia Agricultural and Mechanical College; the other, by Senator Kelly, is an act to provide a commission form of government for Augusta, Action on Senator Hixon’s "eugenic marriage” bill, which has been favor ably reported, was postponed until Monday. The Senate adjourned at 12:30 until 11 o’clock Monday morning. BigBeduction IN Denial Work GOOD WORK mean, more practice and tower prices.

Peachtree & Decatur Sts. ■atrancs IS 1-2 P«»chtr«* St. JAMtS B.NIVTN The dally morning prayer of the blind Chaplain of the House of Rep resentatives, the Rev. J. H. Kills, is a thanksgiving always. Rainer than petitioning for more blessings and more abundant prosper ity, the Chuplain devotes by far the greater portion of his supplication In the House to reminding the members of^the countless blessings they now enjoy, and for which thev should ren der ungrudgingly their thanks to the Most High. Not since he began his term of service in the House has the blind Chaplain started a prayer with words other than these. “Our Heavenly Fa ther. we thank Thee!" and so on to the end of as simple and as sweet a prayer as ever was delivered any where. The blind Chaplain of the House is a most interesting person. He al ways is at his post of duty, well In advance of the Speaker's rap for or der. and he remains after the House gets down to work from 30 minutes to an hour or more every day. Mr. Ellis is slight of build, but clear of voice Few speakers on the floor fill the House so completely as he, and his prayers every morning are glv-m rloso attention. He is completely blind and has to be led when walking. Me is a very lovable man, and the Speaker hardly could have filled the Chaplain's place more acceptably or more sensibly. The House meets every morning at 9 o’clock now, but theFe never is a quorum present at rpll call. Try as the House will, it hardly can get itself together before 10, somehow'. Members either sleep late, are more or less indifferent to the first 30 minutes or so, or resent being called to work at 9. Whatever it is, the hour of 9 generally finds the House not more than half filled. After the roll call is finished—un less It is dispensed with, rt'hioh fre quently it is—members drop in and ask that they be recorded as present. This courtesy generally is accorded them without protest, and it gives tho tardy ones considerable leew'ay in the matter of getting in late and still not having the record recite the circum stance. Judge Robert Hodges, of Macon, is in Atlanta to-day and spent quite a time in the House and Senate, renew ing old acquaintances and looking things over. Mr. Hodges represented Hibb Coun ty In the House several times back yonder—well, not so many years ago after all—and was then ono of the best liked and most influent! I mem bers. He was in the House when his fellovr-townsman. Augustus Octavius Bacon, was first named Senator, and took a great part in the work of con ferring the honor upon him. In those days the legislature elect ed the Senators, without any sort of primary instructions, and Senator Bacon was named—*he was re-elected to a fourth term unopposed a few days since—after a hard flght. "Bob” Hodges, then ‘"Tving his first term, was the man who carried the news from the Capitol to the Kimball Judge Hodges has presided over the City Court of Macon for some twelve years, and Is regularly re named without opposition. Indeed, it is extremely doubtful whether Judge Hodges could be defeated for his present office, no matter who under took the job. Occasionally Speaker Burwell yanks the Mouj^e back to business rather abruptly, when It gets negligent or lags in its work. In passing local measures It Is nec essary to agree to the report of the committee before a bill may be passed, and this agreement is made upon a verbal division merely. The other day the Speaker pro posed the uninteresting s*tatu» thus: "Those who favor agreeing to the re port of the committee will say ‘Aye.’” Nobody said anythin#. Burwell whacked the much-abused block of wood in front of him for or der, and veiled the status of the*House again, and with decided emphasis, moreover. This time the coiqmittee report was agreed to by a chorus of "ayes” that might have been heard to Whitehall street. Then Burwell smiled, and the House laughed good-naturedly, and there waa no more trouble that day. The county of Barrow* was given a temper.iry setback yesterday, w'hen the Senate, by a margin of four votes, declined to ratify the action of the House committee, the House and the Senate committee in favoring it. The advocates of Barrow still are very much in the ring, however. The bill will be reconsidered—it takes a majority only of the Senate to do this, and the Senate is for Barrow by a big majority—ajid then it will go over to tho next session. No more gallant flght ever has been made In the Legislature than the one put up for Barrow. This is the fourth time that plucky community'has come to the Legislature, only to be knifed and bushw'hacked to death in one chamber or the other. It will come again, however—and eventually Bar- row' County will be created. It has the one thing behind it that so many new-county proposals lack— genuine and admitted merit.

BIRMINGHAM. . July 25.—In th« presence of 125 members of the secret fraternal order of. Moose, m Moose Hall last night, Donald A. Kenny, president of the local Chauf feurs’ Union, and Christopher (Aus tin, an iron molder, met almost in stantaneous death from an overshock of electricity received while being initiated into the organization.

No Arrest* Likely. This is not done, but the sugges tion is made on the candidate’s mind that it is through the medium of the application of a rubber emblem w'hiie the circuit of the magneto is made complete by the ab dication of the other end to his bare shoulder. The lodge uses an ordinary mag neto, and while weak candidates have never been subjected to this test, no able-bodied man has ever been in jured by it heretofore. Police investigation is being made, but there probably will be no arrests. Priest, Forced to Take Holy Orders, Released by Pope ROME. July 25.—The Congregation of the Sacraments has rendered a decision in a caw which has lasted for four years, and which has been much discussed in ecclesiastical cir cus. Twelve years ago a priest named Arena asked to be allowed to give up the priesthood. He pleaded that twelve years ago he had been compelled by hip* parents to take Holy Orders. He alleged that he obeyed his parents against his will. This w as confirmed by several witnesses. The Congregation of the Sacra ments, which was presided over by Oardinal Farrata, decided to qancel the priest’s orders. It held that they had been conferred against his* will, and were therefore invalid. It recom mended that Arena be released from his vows. The Pope approved the verdict. Next Encampment Of 1.0.0.
