VACCINATION CERTIFICATE IS FIRST SCHOOL ENTRANCE REQUIREMENT Bailiff Slays Divorcee and Com mits Suicide—Woman’s Four Children Witness Killing. MILLEN, Sept. 4.—Officers to-day have been unable to discover the mo tive that caused Rufus Bryant, a Jen kins County bailiff, to kill Mrs. Belle Newton and commit suicide at the woman’s home, seven miles from Mil- len, at 9:30 o’clock last night. Al though the woman’s four children, the oldest only 9 years old, witnessed the double tragedy, they are unable to tell what prompted It. Mrs. Newton, sister of John B. Newton, chairman of the Jenkins County Commissioners, was of a fam ily that has long been prominent in this section. About five years ago she got a divorce from Ivey Clark, who •oon afterward went to Washington State, where he is now residing. She resumed her maiden name of Newton. According to the woman’s children, Bryant last night came to the Newton home, went to the kitchen, where he drank the contents of a bottle of car bolic acid, returned to the living room, cat down, drew his pistol, shot Mrs. Newton dead and then shot himself. The shots were heard by L. H. Brad- dock, a farmer, living near by, who rushed to the house and discovered the two bodies. He reported the trag edy to officers in Millen. Neighbors took charge of the four children. They probably will be adopted by relatives.

The body has been embalmed and is being held, awaiting instructions from his sister in Canada. More than 1,000 people have crowded the morgue to get a glimpse of the notorious old train- robber. "Old Bill” often said he had money hidden away, but he never revealed the hiding place. He stated that he had hidden more than $1,000 just be fore his capture in North Georgia near Lula in 1911.

"Vaccination is a most important factor in protecting the health of school children, and our rules in this connection are most rigid,” said Su perintendent W. M. Slaton, of the Atlanta public schools, Thursday. "As a protection against smallpox it is an absolute necessity, and should there be lagtty in enforcing the rule an epi demic might result. "Children are admitted to the schools on the issuance by a physi cian of a certificate that the child has been vaccinated successfully. They also are admitted when a physician certifies that he has vaccinated the child three times within twelve months without success. "When two physicians certify that it would endanger the life of a child to vaccinate him, and also when It is shown that a child already has had smallpox, a certificate is issued to them by me. "There is one thing I wish the pub lic and the physicians to understand thoroughly. It is that a physician should not issue a certificate that a child has been successfully vacci nated by him until after the vaccina tion has taken. There have been In stances where children have been vac cinated and the physician has issued them a certificate before it is known whether the treatment has been suc cessful.” Superintendent Slaton and his office force are exceptionally busy this week issuing school certificates. More than 500 women and children called there Wednesday afternoon, while Thursday morning found a great crowd await ing his arrival at the Boys’ High School. CITIZENSHIP MEET The committee on arrangements will meet again Tuesday night pre liminary to the opening of the South ern Citizenship Congress which will be held in Atlanta September 19 to 21. The committee met Wednesday night at Hotel Ansley and decided on a tentative program. For the first two days of the con vention the meetings will be held in the Auditorium; on the last day— Sunday—the Baptist Tabernacle will be used. The opening night of the convention will be called "Governors’ Night," because several Southern Governors, including Governor John M. Slaton, w ill speak. Local members and representatives of foreign orders of the W. C. T. U. and other women's clubs will assume charge of the convention Saturday morning. Saturday afternoon a num ber of students of the Atlanta public schools are scheduled for short talks. Saturday night is called "Hobson's Night” for Captain Richmond Fear- son Hobson has accepted the invita tion of the committee to deliver an address. On Sunday all pastors of Atlanta have agreed to preach on Christian citizenship. Sunday afternoon in the Tabernacle Dr. Lincoln McConnell will take for his subject "Crime and lawlessness.” Rawson and Charles Collier, the well-known young contract agents of the Georgia Railway and Power Company, are back in Atlanta from a canoe trip down the French Broad River, in Western North Carolina, telling of some thrilling adventures and one, unaccented, that was some what depressing. Full of youthful glee, last week they boarded the Southern train for Ross- nan, N. C., with a canoe they had sculled many a mile over the wa ters of East Lake, a balloon tent and all "things else necessary for a 126- mile Journey down the river to Ashe ville. Experienced oarsmen are these young men, and wonderful thrills they had. Down the narrow river, crystal clear, they sped between the towering mountains. Time and again they paused to marvel at the wonder of the scenery, covered as it was with all the luxuriant growth of late sum mer. There was something more than the breath of autumn in the atmos phere. It seemed to give new life with each deep breath, they said, and they wondered why people were so foolish as to live down in the plains of Georgia. Snakes for Bedfellows. That was before' they landed on the first night. The snakes they encoun tered in the bushes on the banks were a little disconcerting, but they quickly overcame them and pitched their tent over corn furrows. There, in cradles of mother earth, they slept while the winds moaned through the hills. They had two days and two nights of such ecstasy. On the third day they sighted a second traveler. He appeared in undue haste, but two can travel much faster than one in a ca noe, especially when rapids have to be shot. So they overtook him. The man was reluctant to answer questions. A little suspicious of him, they finally accepted him as an ordi nary mountaineer, and the two boats passed on down the stream together. As they came to the bridge at Ashe ville they found their suspicions were well grounded. A great crowd of people hailed them from the bridge and a huge man or- | dered them to stop. The Colliers obeyed. The huge man was no less a personage than the county Sheriff and the crowd a retinue of deputies sufficient to start a revolution in Mex ico. It gradually dawned on Rawson and Charles Collier that they were arrested. There was much arguing and ex plaining. but the mountaineer Sheriff insisted on taking them to jail. The charge against them, they gathered, was that they had robbed an apple orchard up the river and fought an old woman w'ho tried to drive them away. That was the story of a moun taineer who was insisting that the Sheriff arrest them. It seemed that all their pleading was in vain, when their strange trav eling companion spoke up: "I’m the man you want,” he said. "These men know' nothing about this matter. I had a companion, but he made for a railroad station and is on his way to Atlanta by this time. "All we did was to pick up a few apples as w’e passed along the road.” Money Lenders Are Hit by Georgia Road AUGUSTA, Sept. 4.—For many i years it has been the practice of some , of the employees of the Georgia Rail- j road to lend money to other em- j ployees at various rates of interest, j With the advent of Acting General j Manager J.

Y.—"At first little red spots were seen on my arms and body, which I noticed were getting larger every day. They itched me so much that I scratched myself until I bled.
