THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT) NEWS. Resolution to Report the Hixon- Searcy Liquor Bill Defeated. Tax Plot Charged. The filibuster In the House against the resolution of Kidd, of Baker, which instructed the Temperance Committee to report back the Hixon- Searcy bill for action, and by which Wohlwender, of Muscogee, consumed the entire time of the House Tues day, came to an end Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock with victory resting with the forces against the bill. In response to a point of order raised by Stewart, of Coffee, Speaker Burwell ruled that Kidd’s resolution was not in order for consideration ■'/Wednesday, and the efforts of the temperance forces to force a hearing on the bill were therefore in vain. The point raised by Mr. Stewart was that, inasmuch as the resolution was introduced Tuesday and specifl- i cally called upon-the Temperance ' Committee to report the bill back “to-morrow,” it was asking the com mittee to perform a physical Impos sibility, and was therefore not in or der. Wright Objects to Decision. Wright, of Floyd, who is generally credited with being behind- Mr. Kidd in the introduction of the resolution, protested vigorously against the de- sion of the Speaker. “Doesn't the Speaker intend to hear those who favor this resolution?” he demanded. “You are out of order," the Speaker replied. "The resolution has been ruled out of order, and is not now un der discussion.” Representative Wohlwender, back ed by Myrick and Shuptrine, of Chat ham; Nunnally, of Floyd, and others of the anti-dry forces, appeared when the House convened to-day determin ed to continue the filibuster until Mr. Kidd consented to withdraw his res olution. This Mr. Kidd and the tem perance cohorts absolutely refused to do. ^ Stewart Then Finds Loophole. Conferences between the prohis and the antis were numerous, but barren of result, and it looked as though the filibuster would continue, with the anti-dry people holding the whip hand indefinitely, when Mr. Stewart found the loophole through which the resolution was riddled. The effect of the resolution and the filibuster has been to draw the line sharply between the anti-dry and the .temperance forces, and to smother 'the more important question of tax revision. The victory of the antis precludes the possibility of the Searcy bill getting a hearing at this session, inasmuch as the Rules Committee takes charge and no resolutions sim ilar to the Kidd resolution can be Introduced. Claims Anti-Tax- Plot. Mr. Wohlwender, whose strong lungs and determination defeated the resolution, voiced the opinion Wed nesday morning that the resolution was an outgrowth of the tax revision fight! "Sheppard, of Sumter; Stovall, of Elbert, and the others who are fight ing tax revision were behind the res olution,” declared Mr. Wohlwender. “They hoped to get that bill brought out because they knew if the House once got busy on it no tax measures could be passed at this session.” 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. ‘Tve had ex perience ” "I’ll 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 w r hat 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.

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 (heir 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.” la [fl|J fll :HlllllllllllllllllllllIlllllillill Attend Oar August Fnrnitnre Sale Now On HE IMKEl HIT HERE 'PEN'FIRMHREEH !

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, are 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 Milledg?- ville. TAKE NUXCARA THREE TIMES A DAY One-half hour before each meal.
