Stanley Is spending; a few days at home, enjoying a much- needed and well-deserved rest from his official duties The fommlfirtoner la well please-H with the work of his department, which 1* relali.elv a youngster among the oth«-r departments, and talks most Interentlnirlv of the same. Discussing the year’s labors before leaving for horn<», Commissioner Stanley said: “Already a great deal of statistical matter concerning the industrial re source* of the State, which has nev er before beeti compiled, has been dis seminated, and a& the department grows this work will increase and much valuable information will be prepared and distributed. “The department has accomplished a great work In seeing that the laws regarding the employment of women and children are compiled with. The act creating this department makes it my duty to »<ee that these laws are enforced. “When I took charge of the office the law requiring mercantile and manufacturing establishments to fur nish seats to their female employees was a dead letter, and had been for more than twenty years This law la now being enforced The large de partment stores In the city have al ready provided »eats for their female employees, and we now are looking after the enforcement of the law In the mnaller cities and towns “I have begun work on the second annual report to the Governor and It will make an even better showing than the one issued for the year end ing December 31 of laat year.” President .1 Randolph Anderson, ex-officio Lieutenant Governor of Georgia, Is Improving rapidly from an operation for appendicitis, which took place In Savannah Monday His physicians say that he will be out within the next two weeks. Representative-elect Thomas Car roll, of Catoosa, named to succeed Representative Bryan, deceased, fur nishes a fine example of the virtue of keeping everlastingly at It! He has been a candidate for the House regularly for some 30 years, and never, before has won out. He has been a perpetually willing sacri fice for principle's sake, however, and has not grown weary In well doing, as he managed to see things. He accumulated a large "hunch” several years ago that sooner or lat er he was to serve a term in the Georgia Legislature, and he never has been able to shake himself loese from that "hunch,” despite his varied as sortment of Waterloos. And now—well, he Is Representa tive-elect, at last, and he will be sworn In next summer, "if he lives and nothing happens!” Mr. Carroll is a popular and able man, and his friends predict for him a useful career In the House. The chartering of the State Pecan Bank, In Baconton, makes the nine teenth State bank organized and started In business this year. On December 10 last year ihere had been chartered and started In business exactly 50 State banks—a number So far ahead of this year’s I record that it will not be equaled even j apnroxJmately. This has not been as good a year as last for organizing banks—that much j Is evident—but It has been an ex- , ceedingly prosperous year in Georgia, 1 nevertheless. and as It is only a few miles from his home in Floyd to the Alabama line, he finally got bis consent to pay the re quired |15 hunting license In AlabatruL and hied him forth to hunt He had fine luck, too, and killed a big bag When ne started home with his kill, however, he suddenly recollected that , he couldn’t carry those bi r d8 Into (ieor- \ gbi and not violate the law’ Being » j Judge, he couldn't afford to violate the law. no matter how great the tempta tlon Besides there was & companion hunter along who might tell It was n<)t ion* until train time, moreover and **, there was nothing to It but to give all those fine birds away and give them away in Alabama, at that! Judge Wright will now sell hla $lf» Alabama hunting license for $3 49, If anybody wants to buy It! Norman Hackett To Play Stock Here A stock company headed by Nor man Hackett probably will open a< the Lyric Theater after two more weeks of road shows, according to an announcement made Thursday by Hugh Cardoza, manager of the house. Emma Bunting will come to the Lyric next, week and the following week there will be another road show. Then Hackett will be here, and unless first- class road companies can be booked Hackett probably will remain in At lanta at the head of the company In stock. It Is understood that, the change from road show’s to stock companies will be made In several of the Jake Wells theaters In the South, owing to the lack of good road productions.

TAKE STUART'S 6UCHU AND JUNIPER IF KIDNEYS BOTHER Ths Joint Legislative Committee of the i Western and Atlantic Railroad, which' !r to-day looking over the State’s fine terminal property in Chattanooga with a view to making recommendations as to the forthcoming re lease of the road, has no power to make binding reporta. What it may have to say to the Leg islature next summer will be merely advisory, and in no way mandatory. The road will not be disposed of a* to its future by the present legislature —nof. perhapp, by the next. It is hoped that the way may be cleared up com- | pletely. however, for the Legislature that , does act finally as to what terms shall ' govern the re-lease of the road. This property is the biggest asset the State has. of course. It is worth to day many tiffies what it cost, and will I continue to enhance in value as the years go by. There Is no doubt what ever that it will be re if It is dis posed of that way. which seems most ikely—upon terms far more advanta geous to the State than the present con tract. The fund arising from the rent of this road goes to the common school fund, and hence the legislature will be par ticularly careful to make It produce the maximum of revenue. Judge Moses Wright, of the Rome Su ' perior Court circuit, who is a mighty hunter, recently had a most harrowing ! experience in Alabama The Judge heard there was some fine bird shooting to be had in that £tate. !
