TTTF ATLANTA OFORGTAN ANT) NFWS
RACING
RESULTS
With approximately 500 miles of
the transcontinental highway behind
him. Pathfinder E. L. Ferguson Wed
nesday prepared for the long west
ward Journey from Mobile through
New Orleans. Houston, Dallas, El
Paso. San Diego and Dos Angeles to
San Francisco. Mr. Ferguson ar
rived in Mobile late Tuesday after
noon.
Mobile’s reception to the pathflnd
ers was only one more indication of
the widespread interest In the mon
ster campaign for a transcontinental
highway inaugurated in Atlanta on
August 18 by Hearst's Sunday Amer
ican.
The Mobilean© carried out a pro
gram which they planned weeks ago.
Several miles north of the city a
big delegation of boosters, including
many women enthusiasts in automo
biles. met the pathfinders and escort-
ed them into the city. Here a com
mittee from the Chamber of Com
merce. as*we11 as prominent citizens
and city officials, took the members
of the party in hand and tendered to
them a royal reception which the
Mobile boosters say "surpassed the
celebrations in Birmingham and
Montgomery/’
Immediately following the recep
tion Mr Ferguson began complet
ing his plans for the resumption of
the Journey to New Orleans, which
place he expects to reach on August
80. Dike the Mobile boosters, the
New Orleans “live wires” have haJ
their plans practically complete for
several weeks, according to advance
reports.
Big Celebration Planned.
A monster good roads and highway
celebration will he held, i‘ Is said,
and a representative of The New
Orleans Item, which is co-operating
with The Sunday American. The Bir
mingham News, The Montgomery Ad
vertiser and other leading Southern
newspapers, will relieve the Mont
gomery representative.
The special man from The Item
will accompany the party as far as
Beaumont, Texas, where a representa
tive of The Houston Post, which also
is behind the movement, will join
the tourists, accompanying them as
far as Dallas. From Dallas Mr. Fer
guson probably will be accompanied
to Dos Angeles by a representative
of The Dallas Times-Herald. Mon
ster receptions have been planned in
each of the big cities named along
the route, as well many of the
smaller ones.
According to the schedule as now
planned. Mr. Ferguson will reach Bi
loxi. Miss.. «n August 28; New Or
leans. August 30; Da Fayette, Septem
ber 3; Dake Charles. Da., September
5; Orange, Texas. September 7;
Beaumont, September 7, and Houston
on September 8 or 9. The party
should reach its destination, San
Francisco, In October.
Following out the policy maintained
all along the route from Atlanta to
Mobile Mr. Ferguson will spread the
gospel of good roads and fine high
ways through Douisiana, Texas, Ari
zona, New Mexico and Southern Cali
fornia. Already the efforts of the
pathfinder along this line have had
marked results. Beginning at Doug-
lasville, Ga.. 30 miles west of Atlanta,
the official starting point, and contin
uing through Tallapoosa. Heflin, Ala ,
Anniston. Ashvllle. Birmingham,
Clanton, Montgomery and Selma, as
well as other progressive smaller
towns, local good roads and highway
campaigns have been Inaugurated fol
lowing Mr. ForgiiHon’s visit. The
manifest enthusiasm with which the
tourists were received all along the
route has been directed into channels
for the actual Improvement of the
roadp and the development of high
ways.
Bad Roads Stories Disproved.
Although Mr. Ferguson has com
pleted less than a third of the long
cross-country tour, he has already
demonstrated beyond a doubt that
the South affords an Ideal route for
an open-the-year-round highway.
This claim was scouted by Northern
tourists, who have declared repeated
ly that the weather was too warm
down In Georgia and Alabama and
Douisiana to make such a trip in the
summer time. It was to disprove this
that Mr. Ferguson decided not only to
make the trip in the very dead of
summer, hut also to take his wife and
children with him. That he has al
ready succeeded is indicated by the
reports from Mrs. Ferguson, who has
declared all along the route that she
was delighted with the “Ideal” cli
mate.
The South's reputation for had
roads, too. has been disproved by this
tour. At. Anniston. Birmingham,
Montgomery and Selma Mr. Ferguson
declared to the boosters that he was
surprised at the marvelous develop
ment of the roads.
“If the citizens along the way
which 1 have traversed do as much
for good roads during the next two
years as they have done during the
past two. conditions should he ideal,”
he said.
That these citizens are going to do
this and even more has been indi
cated repeatedly from the time Mr.
Ferguson left Atlanta until he arrived
in Mobile Wednesday.
Willard Exonerated
By Coroner's Juryj
LOP ANGELES. Aug. !7.—After
p 'era! hntiiff of deliberation over the
testimony resented by witnesses of
L-t Friday’s fight at Vernon between
J.ss Willard and "Bull” Young, which
r. Milled in the death of the latter, the
Coroner’s Jury returned a verdict ex
on-rat nj Willard.
Several physicians who attended
Young after the fatal blow was de
livered testified that the Wyoming
fighter's physical condition was ba i
mi l that Young had a cigarette heart,
and that he was suffering from an
affection which had robbed him of
stamina which he may have formerly
possessed.
The verdict of the Coroner’s Jury j
will have no bearing upon the pros- I
edition of Willard, McCarey and the
others charged with manslaughter,
according to a statement of Prosecu
tor W. J. Ford after the inquest.

Mayor Woodward’s charges that
the setting of September 30 as the
date of holding Atlanta's Democratic
primary was the result of a well-laid
plot has brought a strong denial from
Chairman John Y. Smith, of the city
Democratic executive committee.
There Is absolutely no ground for
the charge, according to Mr. Smith.
Also he is of the opinion that six
weeks is sufficient length of time for
the men running for the offices of
councilman and alderman to make
their campaign.
“A charge that the date of Septem
ber 30 was set as the result of a con
spiracy is without foundation,” said
Mr. Smith. "The meeting of the com
mittee was attended by practically
every member, while there had been
no meeting or caucus of any kind
prior to the meeting.
“It has been the custom for persons
other than members to attend its
meetings and to address them. Had
the Mayor desired to have a later
date set h© could easily have appeared
before the committee and have been
accorded the courtesy of giving his
views. I doubt if there would have
been much trouble in having had the
date set beyond September 30.
"There was considerably mt*re than
a quorum of the committee member
ship present when the matter of set
ting the date was taken up. There
was practically no discussion of it and
a resolution by Committeeman T. O.
Poole naming September 30 was
unanimously adopted.
”1 can not agree with Mayor Wood
ward that the time Is too short for
the candidates for alderman and
councilman to make their campaigns.
When a candidate has to stretch his
campaign beyond a period of six
weeks it works a hardship on him,
while the people undoubtedly get
tired of too much politics.’’
September 12 Closing Day.
At a meeting held at noon Wednes
day the sub-committee of the Ci*y
Executive Committee set September
12 as the last day In which candi
dates ir. the primary of September 20
may pay their fee with the Trea«mr r
and qualify. The assessments for the
various offices were also fixed
Owing to the smaller number of
offices to be contested for and the
consequent smaller number of candi
dates. the assessments are slightly
higher than those of last year.
The total amount which is esti
mated will be derived from the as
sessment Is $1,320. Should any por
tion be left over it will be pro rated
among the candidates. In the event
of a run-off between any candidates
the amount left over will be applied
to the expense of the second election
An effort was made to require candi
dates in the event of a run-off to bear
the entire expense of the second elec
tion, but was defeated.
Candidates must qualify by noon
of September 12. paving their as
sessment to either Paul Toland or J.
O. Cochran. The money will be han
dled by the treasurer of the commit
tee. who will make a bond of $1,500.
The Individual assessments are:
General manager of waterworks.
$160; Alderman, full term. $95: Al
derman, unexplr*d term. $50; Coun
cilman, $70.

THE PLAY
THIS WEEK
Big Kinemacolor Feature.
"The Scarlet. Letter” will be the fea
ture for Kinemacolor exhibition at the
Grand to-day and Thursday. This is a
wonderful motion picture in natural
color. In addition to the Kinemacolor
offering, which is exclusive, and can not
be seen in any other picture theater but
the Grand, there are first run pictures
of the highest quality exhibited every
day.
Meredith Sisters Please.
Prettier gowns than those exhibited
by the Meredith Sisters at the Forsyth

There are half a dozen and each one is
original and beautiful.
All in all the bill is a good entertain
ment. Fred Bond with Miss Fremont
Benton and two assistants present a
comely playlet that is a vaudeville
classic The story wins laughter and
curtain ca'ls, and is about as popular
as anything on the bill. Svengali pre
sents a real novelty—a genuinely won
derful puzzle
Bijou Policy a Hit.
That the new policy of the Bijou
which was inaugurated Monday night is
meeting with popular favor has been
demonstrated at every performance so
far. Better pleased and larger audiences
have seldom gathered within the four
walls of the Bijou. The Jewel Kelly
Company is presenting as its opening
hill "Her Fatal Shadow.” a remark
ably strong comedy drama, intense in
its heart interest, dramatic in its situa
tions and sensational in its climaxes.
The company as a whole is an unusually
clever one and Includes many favorites
who are receiving real ovations at every
performance. Jewel Kelly Eddie
Black, Marie Claire. Grace Webber,
Clare Summers. Rose Morris, have all
played in Atlanta before and count their
friends by the hundreds.

Following recommendation by Ma
jor B. F. Hardaway, of the Seven
teenth United States Infantry, cadets
at the Riverside Military Academy, at
Gainesville, Ga., will be placed under
command of a United States army
officer when its term opens Septem
ber 11.
This information was received from
Washington Wednesday. The name
of the officer who will take charge
will be announced soon.
This detail will carry in addition a
complete equipment of modern rifles,
dress ^and service accouterments as
used by the United States army, and
also artillery and cavalry equipment
for dismounted service. The uni
forms of Riverside cadets arc identi
cal with those used at West Point.
The promptness with which the rec
ommendation of Major Hardaway was
approved by the War Department Is
gratifying to the friends and patrons
of Riverside, in view of the fact that
the usual inspection for such detail is
made only in April. But owing to the
splendid showing made in the prelim
inary application, a special detail w r as
obtained.
Major Hardaway was pleaded with
the location of Riverside, with its
campus of 2,000 acres on the banks of
the Chattahoochee River, two miles
out of Gainesville, because of the
many natural Advantages offered by
it for target practice, maneuvering,
skirmish drills, bridge building, pon
toon work and other military arts.
The physical property at Riverside,
with its well-ventilated barracks,
mess halls and schoolrooms, did much
to obtain this speedy detail.
President Sandy Beaver, who was
in the city Wednesday, announced
the faculty has been strengthened and
enlarged and the school will open with
the largest attendance of its history.

MOBILE, Aug. 27.—W. F. Lee, a
young attorney who claims Atlanta as
his home and who came to Mobile
last Thursday from Milton, Fla., with
pretty 19-year-old Dovie Smith and
married her, to-day is under arrest
in Hattiesburg, Miss., whence he had
gone with his bride. He is accused

ried Lee she had known him three
months.
Chief of Police Frank W. Crenshaw'
received a warrant Tuesday for the
arrest of Lee and a letter from Judge
H. B. Daniels, of Swainsboro, Ga.,
giving the record of the man whose
arrest was sought. Judge Daniels
stated that Lee had married into one
of the best families of Bullock Coun
ty and that his wife later received a
divorce, hut no decree was issued to
Lee. Judge Daniels also stated that
Lee had gone to Knoxville, Tenn..
where he had married a young school
teacher.
Chief Crenshaw traced the couple
from Mobile to Hattiesburg and re
quested Lee’s arrest. The chief then
notified the girl’s brother, who wired
that he would send transportation
for her from Hattiesburg to Pensaco
la, where he resides.
Lee was arrested here Thursday af
ternoon upon the request of Miss
Smith’s brother, but was later freed
when the brother and mother reluc
tantly consented by long distance tel
ephone to the marriage. Late in the
evening I^ee secured a* marriage li
cense and the couple wer marrid hv

Francis Street Methodist Church.
The Smith girl says she will not de
sert Lee. She says she believes him
when he says he was properly di
vorced from his Georgia wife.
