One of the most efficient money-
producers in the city, when it comes
to a whirlwind campaign for funds
badly needed for a worthy cause—the
Ad .Men's Club—had not even begun
their part of the work Monday. They
met and organized for the campaign,
and will send out their canvassers
Tuesday. A rich harvest of results
is expected from their efforts.
Scnaul Enthusiastic.
The most remarkable showing for
the first day's work probably was
that of Henry Schaul, who turned in
a report of $2,194 subscribed. That
his committee got busy at the tap of
the gong and kept at it until time for
luncheon was evidenced by the fact
that many of his subscriptions were
j for small amounts and came from
i many persons. They ranged from $5
and $6 up to $250 and $500.
Mr. Schaul has been an enthusias
tic booster for the project since Dr.
Thorn well Jacobs returned to At
lanta and said it was up to this city
to give a bonus of $250,000 in order
to retain the university.
He at once subscribed $250 on his
own account, and said that he would
be glad to head a committee when the
actual campaign began.
He is suggesting to his subscrib
ers that they make their payments or
their birthdays. He hit upon this
scheme as an aid to their memories.

South’s Leading Men
j Encourage Campaign.
Strong inspiration is to be found
in the letters coming to Dr. Thorn-
well Jacobs, v\ho is taking a leading
,i !*i the establishment of Ogle
thorpe University.
These letters come from men of
prominence and achievement over
the South. Now that they have
backed up the movement with large
subscriptions, they are looking to At
lanta to da her part in raising $250,-
000. which means success for the
great undertaking.
It is a singular fact that not one
o’’ these large donors outside ex
press even the slightest doubt of
what Atlanta will do. They take it
for granted and as a matter of fact
that this city will subscribe the nec-
rsvarx amount in a comparatively
short time. This faith is proving a
wonderful stimulus to the soliciting
committees, and all are at work with
a vim and ardor that can mean noth
ing but success.

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 2.—Battered
by heavy reverses within the past 48
hours, the Mexican Government has
now reached a condition indicating
that it can live but a short time.
Following close upon the news that
the Federal defenders of Chihuahua
City had fled before the approach of
General Villa s rebel army, word was
received here to-day that Tuxpam,
one of the most Important ports in
Mexico and key to the oil fields, has
been taken by rebels under General
Candaguilar. after sharp fighting
The capture of Tuxpam was re
ported in a private dispatch. Pos
session of that city would put the
rebels in a position to cut off the oil
supply of the republic.
Tuxpam is the distributing center
for the oil produced by the Aguilar
Company, which is own^ by the
Pearson Syndicate, of wnich Lord
Cowdrav is the active head. It has
extensive contracts with the Govern
ment of Mexico, the National Rail
ways System and the British Gov
ernment.
While the private dispatch report
ing the capture of Tuxpam was on its
way. General Joaquin Maas, Sr., com
mandant at Vera Cruz, was notifying
General Huerta that troops were on
their way for the relief of the Tux
pam garrison.
With practically all of Northern
Mexico in possession of the rebels
and the Constitutionalists holding
important ports on both coasts, Mex
ico City soon will be menaced by ar
mies approaching the Capital from
every direction.
Lacking money to run his Govern
ment, his army threatened with mu
tiny. and his coasts lined with for
eign warships which at any moment
may establish a blockade, Dictator
Huerta is confronted with the grav
est perils which have menaced his
Government since he assumed na
tional authority.
Villa’s Aide Prisoner
Of U. S. Troops.
EL PASO. TEXAS Dec. 2.—The
United States authorities, both mili
tary and civil, fear complications
with the Mexican Constitutionalists
as a result of recent developments on
the border.
Colonel Juan Medina, former chief
of staff of General Villa and com
mandant of the Juarez garrison, was
arrested here late last night and taken
early to-day to Fort Bliss, where he
is a prisoner charged with violating
the neutrality laws.
General Salvador? Mercado, mili
tary governor of Chihuahua. Is mov
ing toward Ojlnaga with his Federal
troops and a battle may be fought on
the border. With the prospect of
further a* tivity on the international
line, Brigadier General Tasker H.
Bliss, commander of th f * troop® on
the border, has been ordered to ex
ercise the greatest vigilan- e to en-
force neutrality and prevent smug
gling of arms.

O. C. Engram and Miss Ethel Kay, of Calhoun,
Greeted by Tourists.
A desire to inject the spice of ro
mance into a love affair that began In
childhood, coupled with a natural
timidity that made a big church, rice
and old shoe wedding an utter im
possibility, caused Oscar C. Engram
and Miss Ethel Kay to slip quietly
from their homes at Calhoun, Ga., at
4:53 o’clock Tuesday morning, board
the Western and Atlantic train and
have the nuptial knot tied at 8:15
o’clock in the waiting room of the old
Union Station.
No one knew anything about the
contemplated wedding but the bride
groom's brother. H. E Engram, of No
38 Orleans street. Atlanta, and he
didn't know until Monday night, when
he received a wire from his brother.
The message bade Mr. Engram en
gage a preacher and meet the train,
“for,” said the wire. “I’m coming to
Atlanta and am going to get married
in the railway station.”
Wed in Waiting Room.
The wedding was performed by Dr. i
I. S. Hopkins, a well-known Metho- j
dist minister of Atlanta, directly in
front of the news stand in the main
waiting room. Scores of tourists and
ordinary travelers witnessed the tri
umph of the little blind god, and after
ihe wedding the travelers gave the
newlyweds an impromptu reception.
”1 never thought I'd get married In
a railway station.” said the smiling
bride, after the ceremony, “but after
all it does not seem so bad. We’ve
known each other since our child
hood days, and have been intending
to get married for several months.
“Mr. Engram insists that we have
been going to got married since we
were little children. The more we
thought about getting married in a
church, with everybody looking at us,
the less we felt like getting married.
Neither of us, I’m sure, would ever
have the nerve to go through a church
wedding, with its resultant showers
of old shoes and rice and things.
Fooled Their Friends.
“Last night we decided that our
natural timidity would never per
mit us to get married at home, so we
decided to come to Atlanta. We sent
a telegram to Mr Engram’.* brother,
asking him to meet us with a min
ister. and then this morning w* |
slipped away from home and caught
the train for Atlanta.
“Nobody in Calhoun, except our
folks, knew anything about It—and
were glad we fooled them. Every
body was expecting us to have a
church wedding "
Mr. Engram smilingly declared that
if he had had to go through a church
wedding he Just knew his knees
would have “caved in.”
"It seems all right to me to be
married in a railway station,” he
said. “I don't see where it makes any
difference where you g$t married.
The main thing is— get married.”
The newlyweds spent the morning
with their brother, seeing the city,
and left at 12:30 o'clock for Macon,
whence they will go to Florida fur
their honeymoon.

The Event of To-morrow
A Sale of Hats
Quick, please—for these
reasons—
In all there are but seven
ty-five hats. Some thirty-five
of them have just come in
from Estelle Mershon, 20 E.
46th Street, New York—
which is one guaranty of their
style.
The seventy-five are di
vided into three parts-—
$5 to $10 $7.50
Hats are **

Hats are
$15 to $25 $7.50
Hats are * *
Smart, chic, charming affairs for street and after
noon wear.
Velvets and plushes rule, black, royal, blue,
green with French flower trimmings, ribbons, wings,
a bit of fur now and then and ostrich quills, medium
and small shapes with a decided tendency toward
soft crowns.
But these details tell little of the beauty of the
hats.
There is no tariff on an idea—it is the wav smart
milliners have bent a brim, wrapped a ribbon around
a crown, fixed a feather, that makes these hats such
wonderful values—at $2.50, $5.00 and $7.50.
The selling starts with the opening of the store.
The Bazaar’s Christmas Stocks
Are READY
While there is still good time to exercise care and discrimina
tion in the selection of remembrances for friends—visit the Bazaar.
The unique position that the Bazaar occupies among Christmas
stores has been gained through the exquisite good-taste that has al
ways guided the selection of its stocks.
Nothing tawdry or bizarre enters here, one’s choice is limited to
those things that really ornament and grace a home.
The lamps and lamp shades i t themselves are worthy of a spe
cial visit. Many new ideas are shown—lamps for living rooms, hall
lamps, bedroom lamps.
The Sheffield Plate—on white metal and copper base—accurate
and true reproductions of this famous ware.
Dresden China—possibly the most complete display of this ex
quisitely dainty china that Atlanta has seen. No question about it
making an ideal gift for the lover of a beautiful home.
Then there are many odd pieces of hand-painted China to at
tract you.
The crystal ware, the bronzes, the statuary, the brasses—gifts
all.
Will you spend a pleasant half-hour “a-visiting?”
Suppose Santa Claus Met
With an Accident
What a dreadful thought!
And yet suppose his sleigh broke down and he could not bring all the
pretty things he wanted to.
Think of all the little boys and girls who would be sad and disappointed
on this merriest day of the year!
Tt would be awful!
Let’s not take any chances.
Let’s have things ready for him. so that if his sleigh breaks down we will
be able to help him.
Now this new Toy Store comes in beautifully in such an emergency. The
other day some one called it, “the first aid to Santa Claus.”
And that pretty well tells what it is.
Never were such toys shown in Atlanta.
A thousand kinds—all interesting—see them.
