t'HK'AGO. Aug. 30 Some thief
who mav wish to be forehanded in

career stole a tombstone at night from
the show yard of the monument works
of Joseph F. Gastat at No. 4806 North
Clark street.
It is i polished granite b ock weigh

The yard is in a lonely neighborhood
and the thief was free tp take his
time at the task.

motive provoked the theft.”

she Is always one of the most admired
of the girls who appear.
With all these activities, she finds
time for some of the more serious
things of life Th* re is no woman in
the patriotic societies of Georgia
more active or more useful than Miss
Rambo. She is a valued and beloved
friend of th** Confederate veterans,
and always has a place of prominence
at their gatherings
At their reunions, where oratory is
as ctaimon a commodity as cabbage
in a Broad street provision house, her
oratory is always listened to with ea
ger and sincere interest.
All of which goes* to show that Miss
Rambo has been and is a fairly busy
young woman.
"Then what field of activity could
be left her?” you ask. and expect si
lence for your answer
What’s left? Why. business, of
course—-the making of dollars, the
world of finance, to which evet>‘
American is supposed to be a slave.

Like everybody else in business,
Miss Rambo i.s there to make dol

by her on herself. That's not like
Miss Rambo. When she entered busi

A petition signed by more than 200
Atlanta enthusiastic swimmers ask
ing that the lake at Piedmont Park l)*-
kept open during September will be
presented to Dan Carey, park mana
ger. Monday morning. F. E. ^Weis-
brod, of No. 59 Ivy street, who start
ed the movement and is circulating
the petition asking that Atlantans be
given another month of bathing, said
Saturday night that the 200 names
were obtained In a few hours.
“Fully five times that many names
could be secured if necessary,” said
Mr. Weisbrod. “I think 200 will be
sufficient to induce Mr. Carey to keep
the lake open.”
The usual closing time for the
Piedmont Lake is September 1. and |
Manager Carey has issued orders
prohibiting bathing there after to
morrow. The petition which will be
taken to his office Monday asks that
If it is foun*l impossible to keep the
lake open during the entire month,
that it be kept open until September
15. at least.
This-* season has been the most suc
cessful the Piedmont Lake ever has
seen, and the prospect of being shut
off from their favorite sport to-mor
row has been viewed with regret by
hundreds of Vtlamaris. The lake has
been cro.vded with bathers every day J
and on Saturday afternoons and Sun- ,
clays the throngs overtax the capacity
of the locker rooms.

CONFESSED THIEF
JESUP, Aug. 30. A petition ask
ing for the pardon of J. Dillard
Stringer will be presented to the Par
don Board on September 25 by Thom
as & Gibbs, Stringer’s attorneys.
The old father of the petitioner, C.
E. Stringei. is getting the grand ju
rors who indicted his son and other
court officials to sign the pardon pe
tition. Tt is reported that he has been
successful in this. ^
Last April a package of money con.
taining $5,000, consigned to an Atlan
ta trust company by a Brunswick
bank, was opened and the money re
moved in transit. After an investi
gation, Dillard Stringer, a young ex
press messenger from Pine Park, in
Grady County, was accused and con-
tesed to the crime.
Friends <*f bird protection won a
victory in the Senate when the feath
er provision in the tariff bill was re-
feried to the Finance Committee lor
further consideration after that com
mittee had amended it to permit the
admission of feathers of all birds
killed as pests and feathers of game
birds. The provision originally barred |
feathers of all wild birds, except os
trich feathers, and feathers of do
mestic poultry.
"Inasmuch as practically all birds
are killed as pests in some parts of
the world, due to ignorance of their
value, and as most birds are like
wise killed as game birds, somew here
or otjier. by different races of men.
the passage of *.his amendment would
remove protection from all the birds
of the-world which live beyond our
bounds. ' declares James T-L Rice. Jr.,
field agent of the Audubon Society.
“The Audubon Society seeks to
bring about such legislation in all civ
ilized countries as will prohibit the
use of feathers taken from any wild
bird as an article of commerce.
Insects’ Toll a Billion.
"The United States loses $1,000.-
000,000 yearly through harmful in
sects. Georgia $40,000,000, and birds
are the only check to the insects. It
requires 250,000 bushels of insects a
day to feed the birds of Georgia. In
sects are largely migratory. The boll
weevil came from Guatemala; the
cabbage butterfly from the Malay Ar
chipelago; the gypsy moth from Eu
rope.
"The destruction of bird life in any
part of the world will affect every
other part, because the insects, if
not checked, will multiply enormous
ly and must migrate for food
Kill 300.000,000 in Year.
"The objection to the slaughter
yearly of 300.000.000 birds for their
plumage becomes stronger by reason
of the fact that most of the birds
whose plumage is used in commerce
are killed during the nesting season,
when they are tame and their plum
age has an added luster. Many, like
the snowy heron, known as aigrettes,
j have a special nuptial plumage bridal
dress.
I "So heavy has been the agricultural
loss of the world that every civilized
government has been forced to pass
laws conserving the birds within their
boundaries.”
T. T. Adams, of R. K. D. route No.
4 says his wife was enticed from her
home and kept a prisoner at No. 169
Central avenue for two weeks before
she escaped. He apeared at police
headquarters late Saturday night and
asked for aid in getjing Mrs. Adams’
trunk from the place. The police
refused, sayttig that they had no
power. /
Adams named Petras Bloomis as
th** ringleader of a gang which, he
said, owns the house.
Two weeks ago. Adams said, his
wife escaped from the house and went
to the home of her patents in Mar
ietta. where she is living. Adams
said jfi.e is coming to Atlanta Monday
to prefer charges against Bloomis
and his companions.
