More than 100 policemen were sta tioned about the hall io prevent any attack by militant suffragettes, who have threatened to break up the con vention because their leaders were forcibly fed by medical men In prison. Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst issued a call to her followers to interrupt the medical congress at every opportu nity. “Prison doctors ar£ trying to make imbeciles of suffragettes and the whole fraternity should be punished,” said the militant leader. Julian J. Zachry Denies Charges AUGUSTA, Aug. 6.—Julian J. Zach ry has made a statement here deny ing the charges preferred against him in South Carolina. Zachry says he believes Governor Slaton, when fully apprised of the facts, will refuse is grant requisition papers. One of the charges is kidnaping. He says he does not see why he should be thus charged, when he took his child at the order of a South Carolina court. He denies charges of ill treatment and cruelty to his children. Neither Sheriff Crawford, of Colum bia County, nor Sheriff Clark, of Richland County, will place Zachry under arrest, as they have no orders to do so. Zachry's attorneys and friends have assured Gov. Slaton that he will make no attempt to escape and that he is perfectly willing for Governor Slaton to hear the case and will cheerfully abide by his decision. Department Store In Shark’s Stomach VENICE, CAL., Aug. 6.—In a post mortem operation performed on a shark eighteen feet long, which was cast up on the sands here, the fish was shown to be a collector of no little ability.

Four undigested halibut and num erous small fish.

THE PLAY THIS WEEK Contestant Relates Story of How She Climbed, and Now She Knows Advertising Pays. ‘‘I know I can secure want ads by the hundred, for I know what a want ad will do,” said one young, woman contestant when she entered The Georgian’s want ad competition and started out to win an automobile or a trip to California. “I’ve had ex perience.” ‘Til tell you,” replied the young woman. “It lifted me from a $5 a week job to one at $12 and afterward to $15. I’m resting now for the sum mer and putting in my spare time on the contest. “I was just beginning stenography when I found my first position. I started in at $5 a week, and though I kept improving in my work the boss just wouldn’t give me a raise. He said he could get plenty of girls at that price. I had almost given up. “One afternoon when he was away I was reading The Georgian and my eye happened to meet the ‘Help Wanted, Female,’ column. I had nev er taken interest in want ads before. But right under my nose was a little ad—‘Wanted—a good stenographer. Salary $12.’ “I put on my hat, shut up my desk and went after that job, and got it. That’s what a want ad did for me. And I can tell others what want ads will do, for I have confidence, and that goes a long way.” The contestants are rolling up votes right along, and those who are think ing of entering and winning first prize had better hurry. There is yet time to enter and get a start, but it will not pay to delay entering. If You Don’t Drink Do Not Read This LEAVENWORTH, KANS., Aug. 6. Henderson Hasty, of Easton, a small town near here, was stripped, plas tered with a coat of warm tar and his face painted green last night by a party of citizens, determined to en force observance of the prohibition law. Hasty was found asleep beside^ a road in Easton. That he would sign the pledge is said to have been his declaration when he awoke. Society Girl Now a $3 Millinery Clerk ST. LOUIS, MO., Aug. 5.—Miss Delphine Force, a pretty society girl and daughter of wealthy parents, is now a millinery apprentice at $3 a week and says s>he likes the work. She recently quit society pleasures to become a professional cook. Miss Force plans to be a teacher of demestic science at Dana Hall, Wel lesley, Mass., in the Fall, where mil linery, is part of the curriculum. Gainesville Plans Ban on Cigarettes GAINESVILLE, Aug. 6.—Several hundred citizens of Gainesville have petitioned City Council to pass an ordinance making It unlawful for any child under 16 years of age to smoke cigarettes at any place except at the homes of parents or guardians. It is thought the ordinance will be passed. BATTLE WITH MOONSHINERS. LEXINGTON, Aug. 6.—George W.

In almost any settled community there Is a grandma who knows Moth er's Friend. Not only is she remi niscent of her own experience. bu f At the Grand. Motion pictures at the Grand have become decidedly popular. It is pre dicted that in the very near future the fad of going to the Grand to see the movies will be one of the dally mat ters of routine with thousands of peo ple. The fact that the big building is cool. clean and safe, has added a healthy Influence to people who want to see what Is new in motion pictures wih every convenience. The schedule ( of performances this week is from 2:30 until 5:15 each afternoon, and from j 8:3-0 until 10:15 at night. The Forsyth. There is a splendid vaudeville enter tainment at the Forsyth this week, despite the fact there is no feature i headliner. It Just happened that the I Keith people were in positioh to secure j the seven special acts, and each one has registered the sort of hit that has crowded the Forsyth at four perform ances. and built up an advance sale that has not very often been equalled. The hits are very evenly distributed. At the Bijou. The Bijou seems to improve the class of its entertainment each succeeding I week. During the past ten weeks the popular theater has been devoted to popular priced musical comedies and each week has seen an improvement over the former, but the present week Lew Cantor’s musical farce entitled “Along the Pike” is by far the most pretentious production that has been presented so far, j Asks Special Judge To Hear Demurrer COLUMBUS. Aug. 6—Alleging that Hugh M. Mooty, a former bookkeeper for the Beehive, a large dry goods establishment In Columbus, Is not a resident of Muscogee County, but of Fulton County, and that the Superior Court of this county has no jurisdic tion over his affairs, his attorneys have asked for the appointment of a special judge to sit when their de murrer to a recent decision iR heard.

With $1,200, one-fourth of the amount needed, contributed by the Cotton Seed Crushers of Georgia, plans for a per manent exhibit of cotton products which it is proposed to establish in the new Champer of Commerce building have received an. impetus that bids fair to carry the project through. Other lines lines of the cotton industry of the State will be asked to contribute an amount in proportion to their importance, and it is thought the entire amount will be raised within a few weeks. The gift of the Crushers was made through their chairman, W. M. Hutch inson, at a meeting late Tuesday after noon of the cotton products committee of the Atlanta Manufacturers’ Exposi tion Committee, of which Mell R. Wil kinson is chairman. The meeting was addressed by Mayor Woodward, Com missioner of Agriculture J. D. Price, Wilmer L. Moore, S. A. Carter and others. Special committees for each branch of the cotton industry will be named Wednesday. These committees will confer with respresentatives of each line, including fertilizers, the textile industry, the cotton oil industry and ginning, and it will be determined to just what extent the movement for an exhibit will be supported. Trots and Tangos Boon to Chiropodist NEW YORK, Aug. 6.—The turkey trot and the tango are to the chiropo dists equal to the goose that laid the golden eggs, says Miss Clara Houston, of Chicago, the “girl with the perfect foot.” Miss Houston, herself a chi ropodist, says: “Those dances put an unaccus tomed strain on the toes and instep and since they started women have been flocking to chiropodists In droves to have their feet made over. I hope the craze lasts, but I would -never dance any of those dances myself. I think too much of my feet.” MAKE II HIT HERE Atlanta Rotary Club Fills Mem bers of Alabama Organization With Good Cheer. The Birmingham Rotary Club, 32 strong, entrained at midnight Tues day for the Alabama village, chuck full of the good cheer provided for them by the Atlanta Rotary Club, and joyful over the day spent in the Gate City. Purely sToeial was the visit of the Birminghamers, though the spirit of enthusiasm displayed augurs well for the growth of both clubs. Reach ing Atlanta at 12:40, they were met by a delegation of fifteen members of the local club and escorted to Hotel Ansley, where they were entertained at lunchon. The afternoon was spent in sightseeing, th e places of business of many of the members of the At lanta Rotary Club coming in for an inspection. At 7 o’clock the party went to the Capital City Club, where several hours were spent in good fellowship. The festivities broke up shortly be fore midnight, to enable the visitors to catch the train. The modesty of Atlanta’s business men was illustrated in the opening address of President Hubert Ander son. He described the speaker he was to introduce in flowery terms. He made of him the perfect man and the originator of all things great in Atlanta, and said: “Gentlemen, it is my honor to introduce to you—” Instantly every member of the At lanta Rotary Club was on his feet bowing and speaking. The laughter which followed Is undoubtedly being heard on Twentieth street in Bir mingham to-day. IMPROVEMENT AT 'PEN'FARM URGED Senate Committee Frames Rec ommendations After Inspecting Milledgeville Institution. Following a visit to the State Prison Farm at Milledgeville Saturday the Senate Penitentiary Committee of which Senator Tarver, of the Forty- third, is chairman, will make several recommendations for improvement to the Senate. One of these will be a recommen dation for the construction of an an nex to the present dormitory for ne groes. Another provides for a water works system in the women’s build ing. There is a possibility also that the question of the present location of the prison farm will be considered with a view to removal, although this movement is not indorsed by a ma jority of the committee. A further recommendation which probably will be made relates to the separation of the boys' reformatory from the prison farm. Senator Tarver declared Tuesday that In his opinion this feature of the prison farm was bad, as the younger boys, although separated from the convicts, art sufficiently close to be influenced by the depress ing influences of convict life. Nine members of the Senate com mittee .and one member from the House made the trip to Milledge- ville.
