Circuit to take the appointment to the
Appellate bench, has presided at man .

Recorder Broyles said in the an
nouncement of his candidacy
To My Fellow Citizens of Geor
gia.
1 have,lately bad so many in
quiries from friends in different
parts of the State about my can- |
didacy for the Court of Appeals
that I -think it due them that,
without further delay. I should
publicly declare my intentions.
I shall positively be a candidate
in the Democratic primary next
summer for a place on the Court
of Appeals. Under the rules of
the primary, I will have to des
ignate and run for one particular
judgeship. In the last primary, in
912, when I opposed Judge Pottle,
the strongest argument used
against my candidacy was that
Atlanta already had one of the
three judgeships, and was. there
fore, not entitled to another
Despite this heavy handicap. 1
tied wfth Judge Pottle, but, in the
State convention, 1 withdrew my
name and allowed the South
Georgia candidate to have a
unanimous .nomination. 1 do not
propose to run again with this
same handicap and, therefore, 1
shall be a candidate for the un-
expired term of Judge Ben H
Hill, of Atlanta.
This position is now held by
Judge L. S. Roan, also of Atlanta
who was appointed temporarily to
the place until the voters «>f
Georgia could elect Judge Hill’s
successor. I do not intend to be
gin my campaign for several
months yet, but make this an
nouncement now in response to
the inquiries of my friends in At
lanta.

These Thieves Prefer
Chickens to Turkeys
MACON. Dec. 19.—Poultry thieves
in Macon evidently prefer chicken to
turkey. Last night they visited the
roost of J. H. Durden. Plum street,
and took every hen and rooster, but
left a fat gobbler.
John Sohoupe, of Plum street, had
the same experience. Burglars lifted
his five chickens and did not molest
a turkey on the same roost.

To Know That He Will Approve Your
Christmas Purchase—Buy It At Muse's
Shopping for personal belongings is a matter of necessity with a man'. To do it
for him in the perfectly satisfactory way is tin* great certain way of pleasing.
The great certain place is MUSE’S, where everything a man may wear is siiown
in the good form and the goo dquaiity that can’t miss his approval.
Little Toilet Luxuries
Full Dress Appointment
It would l>c a truly happy thought to
present some good man with a perfectly
new outfit for evening—Full Dress Suit or
Tuxedo, if you like—or maybe a handsome
worsted, a modish soft silk shirt or pearl
dress set; ribbon watch cord with gold slide
and glove; evening ties or silk muffler, all
of these are fine full essentials that never
grow out of favor.
And there may be the silk sox and ties
that come in pretty cases, the leather bag
that will keep his collars iri order, the tie
rack for convenience’ sake; a box of hand
some initial handkerchiefs, suspenders and
garters that match; gloves, of course.
And These for a Certainty
The house of beautiful, becoming color suits his honest
vanity—the soft comfort of the new bathrobe helps his daily
habits, and the slippers of ease will surely (ielp to keep him
home at night.
All gifts that go out from Muse’s do credit to
him who gives. Turn this over in your mind before
you go to sleep to-night.
