1 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TRIPS USERS SI HIS TIN; JAILS THEM AUGUSTA, Deo. 6 With niiro- Rlycerin and flines on their person* and heavily armed with revolvers and plenty of ammunition, J. H. Dove and Thomas Daly, who broke into the postoffiee and other places at Grern- cut, Ga., last night, were arrested on the incoming Central train by a squad of Augusta detective*. The men boarded Captain Jeff Thomas’ train at Waynesboro yestcr. day, and he at once suspected them of being fugitives. When his train reached Greenscut. on its way to Augusta, he was told by one of the railroad employee* that there har, been wholesale robberies there last night^and several hundred dollars taken.

Don’t forget the children.—Advt. Sidelights GEORGIA POLITICS &r JAMIS B. KEVIN ■ am - M ~ GIRL TELLS SHE FOUND BOOT IE Colonel Charles Jackson Shipp, who ran for Railroad Commissioner In the last State primaries, and didn’t get elected, evidently has not become a pessimist because of that. On the contrary, Colonel Shipp, forsaking the vexing and fretting thoughts of politics and politicians, of late has turned his attention and his talents to the sweeter and may hap simpler things of life, and where once he thundered political opinions and conclusions from the stump, now he sings vociferously of the festive persimmon and the rare delights of autumn merging serenely into win ter! f In the current issue of The Cor- dele Rambler, Mr. Shipp’s splendid and always Interesting little news paper, that gentleman poetically ob serves: “This is persimmon season in Georgia. If the traveler along a November road hears a soft thud, so gentle Indeed as to be scarcely audible, he has only to look on either side, locate the gaunt, hare limbs to which still cling like huge drops of amber the yet unripe persimmons. Then gayly scaling the fence let him pick up the luscious mouthful that has fallen; for that is the test of the ripe persimmon—it never falls until it is primed for consumption. “Many detractors of the per simmon don’t know this. If they did. instead of slandering and maligning a noble fruit, and heaping ridicule and contumely upon It, they might Join the ac claim of those who know better. To put it otherwise never climb a tree for a persimmon. The persimmon is never ready to per ish for the joy or Humanity until it drops. “That sly connoisseur, Mistnh Possum, knows ail about the persimmon, and when the occa sion is dark and “darky less,” you can sometimes see him slyly meandering around beneath the tree, picking up the Juiciest sam ples and scurrying back to safe ty and feasting But you will see not a possum up a persimmon tree, unless he takes to it to get away from the dogs." After all, it Is not the sum total of political life to live, nor all of the same to die. There are more per suasive things than viewing with alarm, the while the country runs riot to ruin in the hands of some loathed enemy. Happy the politically ambitious who can and do “come back” now and then from unpropitlous voyages —who return with sunshine in their hearts nnd songs of joy bursting from their lips. Blessed are the Charles Jackson Owes Her Life to This Lung Medicine The manufacturer* of Frkman’s Alterative, a medicine for Throat and Lung affection*, regret that all sufferer* of these serious trouble* do not take the trouble to InroNtigate for themselves rhat this medicine has accomptlnhed during the past fifteen year* tn a number of cases. Read this: Griffith, Lake Co., Ind. "Gentlemen: About September 10, 190*. my mother-in-law was taken sick with Catarrhal Pneumonia, which developed Into Lung Trouble. In January, when ltev Wm. Berg, of St. Mi chael's Church, at Schererville, Ind., prepared her for death, he recommended that I get Eok- man's Alterative and see If It would not give her tome relief. The attending physician declared »he had Lung Trouble and was Iteyond all med ical aid. So I immediately had Rev. Wm. Berg to send for a bottle. Practically without hope for recovery, I insisted that she try the Alter ative, which she did. I am glad to say that •he aoon began to Improve. Now, she works as hard as ever, weighs twenty pounds heavier than she ever did before she took sick, and Is In good health.'’ (Affidavit) a JOS ciiiMMKU (Above abbreviated; more on request.)

Shipps, who can lose, and never bat an eye! Dr Elmo Hallew, one of the politi cal “war horse*’’ of grand old Gor don County, is attending the boys’ corn show in Atlanta. The doctor specialize* in corn cul ture, among other things, and Is something of a noted agricultural sharp in hi* vicinity of endeavor. As surpassingly fair, however, as hisj broad atid untarnished escutcheon is in the matter of farm lore, he still scorns not to take advice from younger men. His own corn crop this year, he uvers, is “middling tine,” and made in the most profuse and generous sweat of his brow, and still he thinks he might have made it better had he but known in the beginning all he knew when on yesterday he had fin ished an Inspection of the great show In the Capitol! “These com shows are great,’ said Dr. Ballew, dlscusslr*; the exhibition, “and I think we should encourage them all we can. The boys of Gor don County are splendidly repre sented here, and they deserve great credit for the fine work they have done. The corn clubs have done much to better agricultural conditions in Georgia," In order to anticipate as much as possible the rush for new automobile numbers, which must be secured for the year 1914, Secretary Phil Cook of the State Department will have the new numbers ready for distribu tion on December 15. They cost $5 each, and every owner of a car must have a new number, regardless of past issues. The new law goes into effect on January 1, and cars without new numbers on March 1 will be out lawed. As nothing is to be gained by waiting until March to procurd new numbers, however, the State Department will prepare to issue them at once. After January I every motor car in Georgia must have a new num ber annually, costing $5. It looks a little ns if the pressure brought to bear upon President Wil son in the matter of Judson C. Clem ents’ proposed retirement from the Interstate Commerce Commission may bear fruit. The friends of Judge Clement* have taken hope of late, and now believe that there is at least an even chance that things may fall his way, and reappointment be ten dered. There seems to be a feeling throughout all Washington, not only in Congress, but in the various de partments. that failure to reappoint the Georgian now would work irrep arable injury to the Commission He is the one members of the' body whose experience is long and who knows the ins and outs of the Com mission’s work thoroughly. To drop him now would be to leave the Com mission without one member there on who is ultimately qualified for the position. Moreover, there has been much resentment manifested here, and there that Clements seemingly was considered for the discards most ly in order that a nice, comfortable berth might be supplied to former Governor Glenn, of North Carolina. The reappointment of /Judson C. Clements to the Interstate Commerce Commission apparently will be highly gratifying to Georgia, and in the same ratio would his turning down likely be heartily protested and resented. Byron Williams, of Meriwether, spoken of frequently and favorably of late as a member of the next Sen ate, Is in Atlanta. Few men are bet ter known throughout Georgia, and if he runs for the office stated, there is no doubt whatever that he will be a most formidable candidate. Moreover, he hails fropj one of Georgia’s star counties, politically speaking—the county that has fur nished Georgia with a ^number of Governors and other Statehouse of ficers. The present Governor was born in Meriwether, and several more came from that same vicinity of the vineyard. Important Witnesses Are Heard in Trial of Dean Craig at Shelbyville. 8HEL.BYVILLB, IND., Dec-. 5.— Neatly tailored in brown, with her auburn locks carefully braided about her head, Katherine McPherson, Dr. Knabe’a office girl, who found the body of the physician, told her story first-hand at the Craig trial here this afternoon. ® After a brief description of the in cidents following her first acquaint ance with Dr. Knabe, Miss McPher son reached the meat of her story.

The witness said she reached Dr. Knabe’s apartments at 8:15 the fol lowing morning and said the front door opened easier than usual. She inserted her key into the Yale lock, but could not state whether the door was locked. When she entered her attention was attracted by the drawn window shades, the dark living room, the light in the death chamber which was still burning and the subsequent ghastly discovery. Mrs. Samuel T. Marshall, who lives on Delaware street between the Del aware Flats and Dr. Craig’s resi dence, stated she heard a man run ning along the pavement, in front of her home between 2 and 3 a. m. the morning the body was found. She said she was ill and was sitting up in her living room. She said Dr. Craig lives just one block north of her. She was positive the rapid footsteps were those of a man.

GA., Dec. 5.—The pur chase of a site for the new $30,000 hos pital to be built by the city, has been a bone of contention for several months. Now that a site has been selected, charges are being made that the lot, which cost the city $12,250 had been previously offered the city for $11,500, and that a certain city official obtained an option on it and sold it to the city for the price mentioned above.
