Husband Also Wins Custody of
Children After Sensational
Battle in Macon Court.
w ACON, July 26.—Mrs. Lottie
Mokler, of Peoria, Ill., to-day lost her
flght for alimony from her husband,
Victor R. Mokler, and for the pos
session of their 9-year-old boy, Her
man.
Judge Mathews decided in favor of
the husband, without requiring Mok-
ler's attorney, O. C. Hancock, to argue
the case.
k The evidence presented against Mrs.
Mokler was so overwhelming that the
Judge did not think it necessary to
proceed further with the hearing, and
he stopped Attorney Hancock just as
the latter began his argument and
stated that his mind was satisfied as
to the facts in the case.
Several months ago Mokler returned
to his home in the Carling Flats and
found his wife with another man. The
man ran, but Mokler pursued and fired
a pistol at him five times. He then
left his wife and brought suit for
divorce, charging her with infidelity.
This suit was heard last Monday,
when he was awarded the first ver
dict. He will obtain the second ver
dict at the November term of the Su
perior Court.
Recently, however, Mrs. Mokler in
stituted a fight for alimony and for
the custody of the boy, and the hear
ing on her petition was concluded to
day. The testimony in it was taken
last Saturday and was mostly in the
form of affidavits.
Mokler offered numerous affidavits
of various men in Macon, Spartan
burg. S. C.. and other cities to show
that his wife had been rather free in
her ways of' living. The boy, Her
man, proved an interesting witness,
testifying as to many material points.
He declared that he preferred to live
with his father.
Mokler is well knowrn in Macon and
by those who know him he is highly
regarded Numerous affidavits w’ere
presented this morning as to his ex-
. celient character. He is the Southern
agent for a publishing house that is-
smed Christian literature and Bibles.
His headquarters are in Macon, and
it is stated that he has a large income.
He testified that during the last year
he and his wife lived together in Ma
con she spent over $4,000 in addition
to her living expenses, which he paid.
He introduced statements from local
bank officers as to the sums drawn
from the banks by Mrs. Mokler. He
believes, and stated, that Mrs. Mokler
gAve this money to some of her men
friends.
Mokler was happy over the decision
of the Judge and left the courtroom
affectionately caressing his son.

Proposal to Abolish Justices and
Establish Municipal Tribunal
Gets Mixed Reception.
MACON, July 26.—The Bibb Coun-
ty Representatives are divided on the
bill to abolish the justice courts and
to establish a municipal court, and
it is probable that the bill may not
pass at the present session of the
Legislature unless a compromise Is
reached.
Representative Wallace Miller is in
favor of the whole bill Just as It
stands.
Representative Minter Wimberly
believes that the jurisdiction of thd
court should be r* luced from $500
to $100, and he is opposed to the ad
vance payment of costs. Representa
tive Ben J. Fowler believes the Judge
should receive a salary of only $2,u00
and that the other officers should bo
paid less than is now provided in the
bill. The bill provides for $3,000 .t
year for the judge, $1,800 for the
clerk and $1,500 for ^he sheriff.
Another bill on which the Bibb
Representatives are divided is the
one proposing changes in the fee sys
tem so far as its affects several of
the county officers.
Representative Fowler wants the
Solicitor General put on a salary of
$3,000.

Makes Griffin Kick
Several Carloads of Red Dirt Dumped
Along Tracks and Rains Make
Sticky Walking.
GRIFFIN, July 26.—The people of
Griffin are raising more fuss about
the conditions around Jhe union pas
senger station maintained here by the
Central and Southern Railways.
Some time ago a strong kick was
made against Insanitary conditions,
and against the fact that four trains
are coming in on parallel tracks and
unloading and taking on passengers
and baggage at the same time each
morning at 9 o’clock. Now the com
plaint Is over the dumping of several
carloads of red dirt on .the train
yards and forcing people during the
recent rainB to walk through the
consequent mud and slush. No prom
ise is given that conditions will oe
improved. The citizens have carried
the matter to the Railroad Commis
sion, which promises some kind of
relief.

shape several months ago.
Property owners on Cherry street
below Fifth who objected to the pass
age of the bill in the Legislature
which authorizes the city to close
Cherry between Fifth and Sixth, have
now agreed to withdraw their objec
tions if the Central of Georgia will
agree to arbitrate their claims for
damages.
As the Central of Georgia previous
ly has signified its willingness to en
ter into any fair arrangement for the
settlement of the calims, it is be
lieved that the arbitration plan will be

Richmond County Farmers Do Not
Fear ‘Wolf at the Door’
This Year.
AUGUSTA, July 26.—The farmers
of Richmond County no longer are
fearing the proverbial wolf at the
door this fall. Copious rains have
fallen In practically every section of
the county during the past week, and
the outlook for a good cotton crop is
excellent. The continued dry weather
1 as done serious damage to the corn,
and not more than one-half to two-
thirds of a normal yield will be made.
The cotton, however, stood the lack
of rain very well, and Richmond Coun
ty will make much better crops than
last year.
The wheat and oat crops were
splendid this year, and many thou
sands of bushels of both have been
gathered. The alluvial lands of the
Savannah River Valley made from 60
to 80 bushels of oats to the acre.
The crop of watermelons and can
taloupes are fair this year and, be
cause of the poor yield of peaches
throughout the State, watermelons are
bringing a splendid price.

Lynn Sentence Stand
Slayer of Hightower Refuted Relief
by Georgia Tribunal—Appeal to
Washington Likely.

Court of Georgia has denied a rehear
ing in the Lynn case, which was
heard by it a few weeks ago. and the

SEABOARD TO CONSTRUCT
WAREHOUSE IN COLUMBUS
COLUMBUS, July 26.—The Sea
board Air Line has completed the sur.
vey for the foundation of a large
storage warehouse and grain elevator
in Columbus, to be located on its
property in the southeastern part of
the city. The warehouse, it Is under
stood. will cost in the neighborhood of
$40,000.
LOWNDES TAX VALUES
EXCEED EIGHT MILLION
VALDOSTA. July 26.—Lowndes
County’s tax values this year show an
increase of $259,000. Tax Receiver
Bacon to-day completed the footings
of the 1913 digest. The total tax val
ues of the county are $8,223,000, and,
in view of the rather depressed con
ditions of the past year, the Increase
of more than $250,000 is regarded as
satisfactory. If the bill now be for*
the legislature to provide a board .if
tax assessors passes, it is believed
that values in Lowndes County will
go to $10,000,000 next year.
COLUMBUS, July 26.—A hitch in
the proposed vote on commission gov
ernment for Columbus by the people
during the year 1913 is probable.
A bill providing for commission
government in lieu of the present
Mayor and aldermanie form will be
presented to the Legislature next
week. Advocates of the proposed
waterworks bond issue are making an
effort to keep the commission gov
ernment election from taking place
this year, claiming it would affect the
chances of the waterworks bonds.
The regular Mayor and aldermanie
election is to be held the second Sat
urday in December, while the bond
election comes on October 18, and it
would be difficult to hold a commis
sion government election before Oc
tober.
The advocates of waterworks bonds
have threatened, if an election is
proposed in the commission form bill
prior to the waterworks bond election,
to go before the Lepislature and fight
the passage of the commission gov
ernment bill. The advocates of com
mission government threaten to re
taliate by fighting the waterworks
proposition. If the advocates of com
mission government can have the
election this year they propose to do
so.

SLAYING AND ROBBERY

ville, Cedar Rapids ,and Burlington
are some of the cities that will be
visited.
The Boards of Trade of Columbus,
Adel, Wayeross and other Georgia cit
ies and towns already have applied
for space on the train.

business houses will be represented,
and it is probable that the drum and
bugle corps also will make the trip.

DUBLIN, July 26.—Dublin is In the
midst of a vice crusade, and the City
Council and Police Department are
being asked to take a hand.
A called meeting of Council was
held this week and a body of about
50 representative men went before
the city officials ann called their at
tention to the fact that lewd houses
are being operated In the city limits,
that blind tigers are plentiful, that
the city is “wide open” on Sunday.
A censorship also was asked for
the motion picture shows.
Speeches were made by many of
the citizens and by the Mayor, and
the crowd finally left, after being as
sured that the Police Department and
the Council would do their utmost to
abate the evils. There was no word
of criticism, and the discussion was
entirely friendly. The meeting gives
promise of bringing good results, and
the city will experience, another moral
house cleaning that bids fair to reach
into all the dark corners and get all
the things that should not be there.

facturing Company, found a police
man’s club in his factory’. The Chief
of Police, after an investigation, came
to the conclusion that one of the offi
cers* went into the place to take a
nap and forgot his club.
Several nights ago a citizen on
upper Broad street was sleeping on
his front porch upstairs when he
heard a noise on the porch downstairs.
He found that the policeman on his
beat had gone to sleep on the porch
and had a nightmare.
Another officer went to sleep in May
Park with his shoes off. When found
snoring by the sergeant, he was rude
ly awakened and asked what he meant
by going to sleep on duty with his
shoes off. “Why, I can’t sleep with
them on,” the officer replied.

Outfarm Farmers
Solicitor of City Court at Augusta
Knows How to Raise Big
Crops.
AUGUSTA, July 26.—A lawyer and
a solicitor of the City Court who can
got out into the country and outfarm
the farmers is something of a novelty,

Jr., of this city, can do and, indeed,
has done. Mr. Black has been So
licitor of the .City Court for nearly
ten years. His annual income from
that position is estimated at from $6,-
000 to $18,000.
But back to the farm with the So
licitor. He bought about 200 acres of
land in Columbia County several years
ago and proceeded to farm scientifi
cally. He used plenty of commercial
fertilizer, planted great quantities of
peas, and diversified his crops.
Mr. Black now’ says that he can
raise a bale of cotton to the acre on
Imost any part of his place. Sixty
bushels of corn per acre on the up
lands Is not uncommon, and he raises |
more peas than he can gather.
