SHERBROOKE, QUEBEC, Aug. 29. Harry K. Thaw has won another vic tory in his fight against going back to the Matteawan, N. Y., Asylum for the ( riminal Insane, although the re sult in this case may prove only tem porary Ex-Dlstrlct Attorney Jerome, who is here in the capacity o*f a deputy at torney general of the State of New York, returned to-day from Quebec after having failed to see Sir Lomar Gouin, Governor for this province. Jerome had planned to petition Sir Lomar to quash all proceedings the jeourts here have instituted so that the representatives of the Canadian Department of Immigration might act at once. Sir Lomar is in Albany, N. Y., with a party of distinguished Canadians, ■who went over the border to welcome , Lord Haldane, the Lord High Chan cellor of England, who is on his way to Montreal. Jerome left his petition with Sir Lomar’s representative, but the latter said he could do nothing in a case so Important as the Thaw matter in the absence of his chief. “I fear further delay,” said Jerome. “We are anxious to rush this case through. W r e are certain that Thaw will be deported in the end, but we do not want the proceedings to cost any more than necessary.” The Canadian secret service agents to-day were keeping close watch on Thaw as the result of reports that the fugitive was planning to give bail and flee into Michigan. Thaw spent a restful night and was up early. After breakfast he rolled up his sleeves and plunged into his daily task of writing interviews. Thaw to Shift Fight To Pittsburg Soon.

Roosevelt Blames Tango on Indians CHICAGO, Aug. 29.—The poor In dians have got something else to shoulder now. Colonel Roosevelt says the Hopis invented and danced the tango, turkey trot, bear cat, griz zly and and a horde of similar dances centuries before Newport or Narra- gansett Pier got the craze. He also told members of the Chi cago Progressive Club, on his way back from a two weeks' vacation bear and nurse children, and in the God made woman fools to match men and woman’s duty as a voter would not interfere with her domestic duties. Virginia Reel, Spanish Whirl and Tango Combined in Delight ful New Step. The fox—the common red-fox—has reached the acme of fame and re nown; he has been immortalized by having a dance named for him, and pits happily and serenely alongside the turkey, the rabbit and the bear. The latest is the Fox Fandango. It is the outcome of a tour of ex ploration by some of the younger so ciety set, who, in their everlasting search for something new, wound up one day at Grant Park. Struck with the beauty and grace of the red fox as he dragged his frightened little body into his hole, one of the visitors suggested that, in asmuch as the movements of the tur key. the rabbit and all the other ani mals had been utilized by the danc ing master, it would be a novelty to introduce something based on the graceful movements of the fox. So last Friday night at a Tech dance at the Crystal Palace, the Fox Fandango was originated. It is a graceful dance, without having the taint of sugge.stlveness that has marred the trots, the hugs and th^ tangos, and It promises to become all the rage in Atlanta social circles. The dance is a combination of the Virginia reel, the Spanish fandango and the tango. Xhls is about how you do it: First you bow gracefully—if you can—as in the Virginia reel; then you take the walking steps of the tango and waltz them slowly, very slowly; then you tear the fast-going right out of the heart of the Spanish dances aid waltz rapidly, although it is not necessary that you place the tip of the fingers on the head, or hang on to your belt with the other hand. You are allowed the liberty of interpolating any elaborations you may desire. Miss Caroline Briggs, a Tech favor ite, and Perry Burrus, a sophisticated sophomore, were among the crowd who originated the new dance, an<i their interpretation of the Fox Fan dango was one of the best shown at the Crystal Palace. SUITE TO BETTER DATA ON COTTON Georgia Department of Agricul ture Will Co-operate With the U. S, Census Bureau. ELIHU ROOT HAS COAT OF TAN. WASHINGTON, Aug. 29. — The finest coat of tan in the Senate to day adorned the features of Elihu Root, of New York, to whom his col leagues gave an impromptu welcome on his return from a European trip. An effort will be made by the State Department of Agriculture to improve upon the methods of collecting data regarding the movement and produc tion of cotton in Georgia, and in this connection Assistant Commissioner «.f Agriculture Dan Hughes is forking hard to arrive at some accurate sys tem of handling the proposition. "It is our intention to furnish a weekly report to the farmers through the prese regarding the production and movement of cotton.” said Mr. Hughes. “We will attempt to obtain the co-operation of the railroads and the co-operation of the dealers and handlers of cotton in the Dig inland markets. By comparison with the previous year’s showing this would give us a good idea of exact condi tions. ‘‘We are In communication with Di rector of the Census W. J. Harris and expect to obtain much Information and assistance from him. We will receive regular reports from him as to the cotton ginned in Georgia, which we will transmit to the public in weekly reports to be published in the newspapers.” 28-Day Auto Trip .

Because he became Imbued with the idea that one Mexican is theequa' of a great many American policemen. C. E. Ellison, No. 153 Walton street, who says he is a Mexican employed by the Atlanta Gas Company, occu pied a cell at police headquarters Fri day, nursing several large and painful bumps on the head, inflicted by Offi cer Thompson and Officer Lynan dur ing the process of relieving his mind of his hallucination. Elli.uon had a day off Thursday, and in the absence of anything else to do he drank copiously of mescal and de. voured the newspaper stories of the Mexican trouble. The more he drank and the more he read the more indig nant he became that President Wil son should tell President Huerta where to “head in.” Indignation filled his soul. He thirsted for the gore of an American, and forthwith started out to find a fresh, untainted Ameri can on whom he might wreak ven geance. Girls Kick His Shins. By some strange freak of chance Ellison wound up in the Syrian quar ter on Marietta street, in Brooklyn, and informed two passing Syrian girls that Mexican courage and Mexi can mescal make a winning combi nation. The Syrian girls didn’t be lieve it. One of them kicked Ellison in the «*hlns, and the other slapped his face. Ellison began to explain volubly that he had no fuss with Syria, hut before he got through Officer Lynan, a large and imposing figure of a man, came up. “Ha!” said Ellison. “An American! Curses on them!” Officer Lynan reached out a large hand and grasped Ellison firmly by the collar. “Come with me!” he 9fited firmly. "Leggo!” shouted the brave Mexi can. “I’m a Mexican and I won’t stand for no interference from an American. I can w hip any American that ever worse shoes. I’ll bite you if you don’t leggo! - He made a.‘» if to chew the officer's club. Lynan grinned and tapped him on the head. Ellison grunted, but subsided. Lynan called the wagon and the brave Mexican was loaded into it, fighting and protesting. Finally Admits Defeat. En route to the station house Elli son felt his courage rising up in him again, and he turned on Officer Thompson, who guards the prisoners until Judge Broyles gets hold of them. “You’re an American,. too,” Ellison said. “I guess I can lick you. too.'' Officer Thompson grinned and said nothing. Ellison made a pass at Thompson. The officer sighed, be cause it was a shame to do it, and tapped Ellison on the aead. The Mex ican subsided with a low, despairing gurgle, and as' the waters closed over his head, he murmured: “Let Huerta fight ’em; I got enough.” Many Georgians Seek Game Warden Place Applications are pouring in for the office of game commissioner to suc ceed Jesse E.

That there is « good possibility of victory' for the friends of bird pro tection throughout the world Is the Information conveyed In a telegram to James H. Rice, Jr., of South Caro lina, field agent for the National As sociation of Audubon Societies, who Is now’ in Atlanta looking into local con ditions. The telegram was received from National Secretary T. G. Pear son, who is conducting the fight in Washington. According to Mr. Pearson, the ter- ’ff bill carried a rider prohibiting the importation of the feathers of all wild birds, except ostrich feathers. The feathers of domestic poultry were also permitted to come in. However, ' an amendment was added by the Sen- I ate Finance Committee providing that the feathers of ail birds which are j killed as pests and the feathers of game birds might be imported. This clauee, tt is said, in effect would re move protection from all the birds of the world which live outside of this country. It is this amendment which has been referred back to the Senate committee for further consideration, with the view of having it struck out. In explaining the matter aqd the work of the Audubon Society, Mr. Rice declared the society was at tempting by legislation to prohibit the use of feathers taken from any wild bird as an article of commerce. The slaughtering of birds for their'feath- ers, he said further, was not only ob jectionable because of the effect on the elimination of the pestiferous in sect, but because the birds were killed during the nesting period, thereby causing a gradual elimination of the species.
