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.

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. Delegates to World Temperance Meeting Mrs. Mary Harris Armor, Georgia W. C. T. U.
