far worse than hie prison experi
ences. Beilis is anxiously awaiting
the final decision on whether the
Government will appeal his rase and

would make his announcement Mon
day he wept for joy.
Beilis several times had been as
sured that his case was finished, but
he refuses to believe this and reiter
ates that he will be murdered before
he can leave Russia.
M. Vilensky, one of the attorneys
who has had charge of the case for
the defense, left to-day for Berlin
in company with several Important
witnesses, who appeared for Beilis
to prepare a pi»blic statement giving
a new version of the murder of the
Tushinsky hoy. This is being done
in response to the Government chal
lenge defying “the Jews to solve the i
mystery."
The report adopted at the recent
meeting of the Kitff barristers asso
ciation, in which the Government •
was condemned for bringing Beilis
to trial, was telegraphed to the Min
ister of Justice at 8t. Petersburg by
the president of the court before
whom Helllis was tried. The Minis- j
ter to-day issued orders to have
criminal charges brought agralnst the !
barristers.

trial occurred to-day, when 1,200 j
Jewish students were expelled from

Fast Battle,
The biskei hall season at the At
lanta Athletic <’lub opened la* 1 night
with a 46 to 14 victory for ('oach
Bean's team over the Bessemer Ath
letic club quintet.
The game started off with the lo
cals throwing the first field and foul
goal, and after five minutes play it
waa easily seen that the locals had
things their own way. During *he
first half the Bessemerites only
threw one field goal against the At
lanta boys’ 12. The score at the end
of the first half was Atlanta 2Jb
Bessemer 7.
“Pie" Weaver played a remarkable
defensive game as well as a brilliant
offensive one, scoring two field goals
that were sensational. Carter, his
teammate, also played a fine game, a.?
the score show * that only thr* • field
goals were thrown by Ti • visiting
team during the encounter.
For the Bessemer team Bailey led
at scoring. Clay played well at cen
ter, getting the Jump the majority of
the times, only to lose the ball to an
Atlanta man. The losers were way
off on their shoaling. for on many
occasions they had clean shots, hut
failed to put them in for the count.
Miss Margaret Wingfield was
sponsor for the Bessemer team and
Miss Clifford West for Atlanta.

Padrone System in
America Is Exposed
Picture Play Shews How Ignorance
of Foreigners Is Used to
Advantage.
“The Padrone’s Plot,” which will
vividly illustrate an exposure of the

try to-day. will be shown at the

Girl Said Picture
Actor Winked at Her
“The next time you inveigle me
into a moth n picture show you will
know jr.’* said Countr> Cousin Kate
to Ralph De Bruler. manager of the
Montgomery Theater here.
D^ Bruler, his brain in a whirl from
thr- perplexities of his position, was
nonplussed for the moment, but
finally asccFfained the source of trou
ble engendered.
It seems that It was Cousin Kate’s
first visit to a motion picture show
and she claimed that a big fat actor
on the "» reen” deliberately winked
at her (It must have been John Bun
ny) and being from the country,
she rebelled at such impertinence and
it required one full hour of Ralph’s
time to explain to her that it was all
in the picture.

Pretty, Robust Girl Takes l)<'<‘|> Interest in

Miss Roberta Brennan smiled. H*t

thumped herself vigorously on the
chest, with no ill effects. She doubled
her fist and drew up her forearm, and
through the soft charmeuse of her
sleeve there became apparent a splen

and hefty.

GRAY HAIR TURNS IIS NATURAL
COLOR AFTER APPLYING SAGE TEA
Mixed With Sulphur It Darkens
Beautifully and Takes Off
Dandruff.
Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and lus
ter to the hair when faded, streaked or
gray: also cures dandruff itching scalp
and stops falling hair. Years ago the
only way to get this mixture was to
make it at home, which is mussy and
troublesome.
Nowadays skilled chemists do this
better than ourselves By asking at
anv drug store for the ready-to use
product called “Wyeth's Sage and Sul
phur Hair Remedy”- you will get a
large bottle for about 50 cents. Some
druggists make their own, but it's
usually too sticky, so Insist upon get
ting "Wyeth's.” which can be depended
upon to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair, nnd is the best remed> for
dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and
to stop falling hair.
Folks like “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur" because no one can possibly tell
that you d&rkti <1 your hair, as It does
.it so naturally and evsi y, saj a we]

which Is being arranged by the Medi
al Review of Review Sociological
1’lin'd.
The fund, through its president,
Frederick H. Robinson, of New York,
offers a prize of $500 to the ideal man
and woman whom it selects from
among the candidates. The ideal cou
ple are to marry. Upon the birth of
the first baby, the pair thus ideally
mated from the eugenic point of view
will receive another $500.
It has been announced that the lists
arc open to any man or woman who
is willing to submit to an examina
tion which shall deal both with physi
cal and mental qualifications. The
candidates are also to assist the of
ficers of the fund in searching the
record of th< candidates' ancestors for
blemishes, either physical or mental.
And so Miss Brennan, confident of
her own presentabllity, says she will
be a candidate—Atlanta’s candidate.
’’I haven't been ill a day in my
life," she declared. “And I think it
is no more than my due that the man
I marry should possess a store of
health that Is as good as mine. The
eugenic marriage seems to me to be
<h liable, scientifically correct, ami
not altogether repugnant to the idea
of romance. I do not believe It pos
sible for two healthful, wholesome
persons to meet each other, and to he
roine acquainted intimately, without
feeling an attraction toward each
other.
1 do hope Atlanta people won’t
think I’m presumptuous in offering
myself as the city’s candidate in this
contest."
Miss Brennan is a visitor to At
lanta. Her home is in San Francisco.
For the last week she has been with
a party of friends at the Majestic
Hotel.
Miss Brennan said she has heard a
number of progressive young women
announce their favor for the plan of

General Film Co. Has
Vast Array of Talent
Probably very few of New’ York’s
financial ‘captains of industry" truly
realize that a few miles north of
their district is contained the head
quarters of one of the greatest in
stitutions in New York city. They
may not “run” the tape all day long,
but they have their index finger
pressed firmly agairrt the throbbing
pulse of a vast number df motion
picture exhibitors throughout the
United States. In commonplace name
they are styled the General Film
Company, conveying little, but mean
ing much, as their home office and
numerous branch establishments rep
resent the total output of the regu
lar Association of Licensed Manu
facturers, which include the Bio
graph. Vitagraph, Kalem, Essanay,
Lubin. Edison, Pathe. Fines Melies
and Kelig and with this vast array
of talent it would be next to impos
sible not to be able to satisfy the
exhibitor’s every want and desire.
